Hi Val. I like your attitude. Sounds like you're getting some feelers out there for a good job. As I told my own daughter, 85% of the best jobs are never advertised -- you find out about them through networking.
 
A book I read in college while studying Eastern religions was Zen Catholicism. Buddhism has very little in it which intrinsicly contradicts most other religions. It sounds like you're doing OK Val. That's great to see.
 
Morning :) Sounds like a good run and ohm session ;) You are doing really well and like Tom said, putting those feelers out for jobs is great. Yay on the bloat going too. Keep your chin up Val :)
 
Chin checkin!

Thanks everyone!

Yesterday I wasn't able to get to diaries. Here was my damn day:

7am: Ohms, chants, running 20 minutes which burned 260 calories

8:30-noon: Boring work, but for food I had a berry wafflewich and a small chocolate bar.

Noon: Genie and me to beach and back, 30 minutes, about 160 calories burned.

5-6:15 Went home and folded 3 loads of laundry and other chores, probably burned about 200 calories

6:30-7:20: Gym, weight training, about 300 calories plus the after-burn.

7:30-8:30: Yoga at gym, moderate intensity, fucking excellent feeling! Man I am limber, I forgot how good I am at yoga. I can do everything with no modifications. Well, I certainly cannot do hardcore stuff like Rooster or anything. Calories? Like 250

8:40-9:30: Visited with my old housemate who lives somewhat nearby, talked about my ex a bit and my career plans.

Rest of the night: Emailing my best friend and my high school sweetheart and a bunch of other friends I'm trying to keep in touch with.

Bed at 11:30

Today: Weighed in at 144.0 lbs, yay! :D

I really want to check out the diaries but I have a while lot of subscriptions and I don't think I could take on any more, sheesh! It's already 7:27am and I have to shower......ugh, and at work it's increasingly more difficult to check out diaries......ugh. Well I'll be part time come Sept 17th, so unless a life change happens then, I'll be around way more often :rolleyes:
 
Oh for lunch I had a Salmon salad and for snacks I had bowl of cereal and agave, and strawberries. As a precursor to weights I had protein bar and dinner was traded in for 2 more power bars because it was already almost 10pm, for a total of 2140 calories. My requirements were probably more like 2800-3000, depending on the increase in metabolism from my am run and my pm weights.

MMMM, Now that sounds real good to me!!! Nice job on the food VBF!
 
Dont worry about it Curvie. We know you'll check in with us when you have time. Maybe it sounds harsh but I'm never apologetic when I can't get on here or dont have much time to stop by diaries. We all have a life (at least most of us LOL), and I assume when I haven't seen someone around they're just busy. It does suck when people you communicated with on a daily basis go away for good. If you ever go away, you better take my email address and keep in touch. I would do the same.
 
Thanks gals and guy!

Yeah, I have not been able to draw....too curious about my WLF friends. Lately I feel so good I almost want to venture out--but my reclusiveness will continue.

Bad news: A giant cheese plate and bread came in from leftovers from an event. I binged :cry: Well, probably about 600 calories :( Lunch will be very light!

Day isn't ruined. B-fast was 460 calories (Berry Wafflewich).

Dinner will be salmon salad!!!
 
Day isn't ruined.
Good attitude. :) I hope the cheese was worth it. When you have a binge/slip-up it's always more comforting when you can look back and say "Hot damn! That was worth it!" :p
 
Oh, and thanks for your support in my diary. It's nice to get encouragement for someone who strongly believes in love and knows how tough it can be. I'm hanging on tight!
 
Yeah if you're only off by 600 and you have time to rectify your calorie count you're in good shape. It sounds like the day went well food wise.
 
Surely, Dee!

Thanks Joe!

Sigh. I forgot to chant this morning but I did 3 Ohms. I also ran for 25 minutes and I had to listen to Tupac (R.I.P.N.)

Yesterday I had binged too much on bread and cheese. Today my goal is to avoid both completely. I'm going to use self-discipline to to that. My total calories were 2710 :( It pretty much broke today and yesterday even I suppose. Oh yes, I DID have a healthy grilled salmon salad for dinner, because I was still hungry after Kickboe. The class was really intense, Psycho Michael made us jump 360s:eek: I mean, say you're in a squat, and then you jump and whip around to face behind--a 180. Well, I managered to flip all the way around and a few times at that. He's making us jump a whole lot more. I soaked through 2 towels. I've been asking the front desk for 2 lately. It's not particularly hot in SC but the humidity is around 95 % and sweat just won't dry off!!!

Tonight.........................

Nat's
coming
over.

It's been 2 weeks since we saw each other and he's acting (in his emails) all excited and he says he misses me and loves me. I don't know how I feel. I looked through a bunch of pictures last night of him and I started to miss him then. Here's my fav:

Anyway, I have to go to work. I probably won't be in diaries until I get some spare time this weekend or on Labor Day, I have no vacations planned. I might peek in a few if I get a chance....
 
I agree, something is screwed up on WLF today, it's all weird and I have to use different links to get to diary's not sure what's going on. OH Nat looks really cute in that pic, I know why your crazy about him. But, don't let your emotions take over your brain. Your doing so well, and I hate one visit to screw all that up. Keep up that good work on your excises, I mean DAMN you did a huge workout yesterday that KICK-BO is insane! What a workout if your burning through 2 towels, YIKES!:eek2: And I thought my soaking a "doo-rag" on my head and a towel was enough. HAHAHAHHA YOU GO GIRL!! I'm going to tip up a nice glass of wine for you tonight and cheer that you have a very nice weekend!! And maybe some of your friends will call and you will be invited out to a very nice party weekend, OH and just be careful on the alcohol, you've been doing so damn good, wouldn't want to ruin all that work. I know you'll do just fine!! I had some bread last night too, NO CHEESE, but bread and I dont usually do that. I did skip dinner though, probably not a good thing, but I was TIRED!! I'll talk to you later gator!!!
HAPPY LABOR DAY!:rotflmao::hug2: WUV YA, VBF!!!

Thanks Kim you always cheer me up!!!!!!!:hug2:

Yes my emotions are fine--I'm going to be fine. :)

Yes I have not had a drop to drink since early Sunday morning around 2am I guess. I want to stay good!

I'm making us dinner--amaranth with granny smith apples cut up in it and golden raisons and pine nuts, with sugar peas on the side and grilled talapia fillets with habenero salsa on top--never did this before, I just came up with it last night. Also some good Pinot Noir. Nat and I are staying in. I hope we don't talk about anything upsetting. I just want to start over with a nice dinner date. I suppose he'll spend the night. I'm not sure what will happen, but if we start fighting I'm kicking his ass out of my house!!!:flame:

By the way, I really should take pictures, my house is NICE and I like my housemates. I never see the Czech girl except for Saturday mornings, but the Russian comes home late and we always chat before she turns on her own laptop ;) My house is ALWAYS spotless. It's really nice.

Today is one of my boss's birthdays so we're having cake and champagne. BUT tonight I'm doing weight training after work and before I start dinner--3rd time this week :D I should be lean in no time!

Hey lady :) Sounds like you are doing well. Stay strong tonight. I hope things are okay and don't get too upsetting for you. Just ohm silently to yourself if things get rough ;) I'm sure you'll be fine. We're all here waiting to hear how it goes. Wishing you a great evening and weekend! x
 
Haha. I was also going to suggest Ohming/chanting in your head if things get rough. Great minds think alike, Rachie! Oh Val... I've never really thought of myself as a romantic, but lately I'm turning into one... bigtime. Maybe you're rubbing off on me. I can't help it. I keep imagining that a month from now, you'll post about how Nat has been so responsible and considerate all the time and you haven't had any fights and everything is just perfect. :) I hope things go well. Do what's right for you.
