WORD! I AM a bitch! LOL! I admit I am wrong, I got on a high horse. But it sure was satisfying to tell this guy he's selfish and self-absorbed. L AND his wife are with me on that one! Like I said, some guys just aren't the nurturing and attentive types. I want me one of those someday. *wistful*
 
Hahaha... I think you did great with the conversation. When you have personal experience with a subject, it's hard not to incorporate that into the argument. I think it's ok that you did that. He really needed to hear the things you said. I think many men should hear those things!
 
Thanks, Dee!!

OK.

I'm incredulous about how quickly I put on weight, and grumpy about being 150 lbs when, in just August, I was around 142 lbs. Granted, something happened--people still call me "in shape," sometimes "skinny," and I've heard, "you have a nice body" much more frequently than I would expect or even need to hear--from men and women alike. This is very flattering but it's also weird. I suspect the weight training has something to do with it. I'm very very glad for that--trust me, I have been trying to get as firm and curvy as possible.

I've also been gluttonous with beer and food, and have eaten much too much sweets lately. What the hell is my problem? *whispers* no food diary.

AHA! That's right. I've been caught slacking off and I've no one to blame but myself (and Beer). I wish I was like Beth and didn't like beer. Grrrrrrrr.

On a lighter note, I noticed so many people on WLF have lost a bunch of weight recently and it makes me very happy! :D Some, even, have blasted through their plateaus. I'm excited for them! :)

SO last night the BF (whom I hadn't seen in a week) came over. He was very sweet, revealing to me how much he actually missed me and misses sleeping with me. He was very loving and sweet. Um, however, my feelings for him are really cooling down and I can't discuss why, necessarily, but it is nice to have him around on the weekends!

He wanted us to "be gluttonous and eat and drink beer all day" but I refused after seeing 150.0 on the scale this morning (I miss seeing 142) and I told him I was going running. So we amicably parted ways. I just finished a run through downtown Capitola. I was trying to find a trail to run on in a nearby campsite and the railroad tracks, but couldn't, so I ended up going through town and along the small wharf and back. I paused at Cava wine bar to say hi to Cliff, of course ;)

Food: I splurged and bought salmon jerky at The Fish Lady and some glazed pecans and Acacia juice (or whatever it is, the stuff with the antioxidants). I had slept until 11 anyway, so lunch will be coming up. I'm about to shower and head to Pelican Ranch Winery to say hi to Peg and have a bit of wine before I go back to Capitola and register with Nikki and her mom for the Triathlon tomorrow. Oh did I mention that? I'm doing a Tri relay with Nikki and her mom--mom's swimming, Nikki's biking, and I'm running. Team Lacroix!!! I've known Nikki since she was 14 and I was 15. It's at 7:30 am tomorrow! *gulp* but it's only 2.5 miles for me--I'll sprint.

Ok, gotta go-will visit diaries later!

Wow... a triathalon? That's fantastic, Val! When is it scheduled? Also... how long will your run be? Giving you props for being able to run, girl... that right there is something I most definitely CANNOT do. lol (The tetas and knees would hate me forever.. LMAO!) Wishing you a wonderful Cali day, little mama... :hug2:

-Sheryl
 
There is no doubt you blasted through that triathlon, your a power house when it comes to running and two miles, HOOO you can do that in your sleep. I can't wait to hear all about it!! I just wish I lived closer so you can teach me how to run and get better at it, I'm a horrible runner, I don't push myself enough, because usually I'm doing it alone, as everyone I know hates running. LOL LOL Well, I'm excited for you, hope you did GREAT!! :beerchug:

Hey girl :). I had a feeling BF would be all missing you the second your feelings started cooling. Met any hotties lately? I'm guessing YES. Ha ha.

When is the triathalon? Are these two as competitive as you?
 
I'm sorry I haven't been around lately, but I'm glad to see you doing so well even if the scale isn't quite cooperating. You have a ton going for you Val and you'll get that scale back where you want it in no time.
 
Hi Val!!!!

I'm sorry I havn't been by in a while! School has been sooooo busy!!!

I see you havn't been here in a few dys, how are you???
 
Hey friends!

OOOh yes I've been busy as a beaver with a bee in her bonnet!

Seriously, though--whewy!

BUT I must post an update before I get to my friends; I started a REAL DIET for the month of October and I'm going to stick with it because I want to be a little lighter for Halloween--for my mystery costume. I tried it on yesterday and thought I looked pretty good, but ya know when you gain weight and notice your skin stretching a little and getting not so smooth? Well, for some people I suppose stretch marks are a bigger problem and I'm sorry about that :( Nontheless, for myself, I noticed that my skin is complaining more about the weight gain than I am, so it was motivation to get down.

Anyway, I've been food-logging and calore counting and planning and everything, and yesterday I consumed 1810 calories and burned roughly 500 in exercise (wieghts and yoga, 2 hours total) for a net of about 1310 or so. It's a struggle to eat to deficit. I'm hating it, but I'm totally focused and resolved to get back on the wagon. My stress has gone waaaaaaaaaaay down lately and I have no more excuses. Money issues are acutally not that bad! And my work, although proposing 20 hours, lets me stay to finish what I need to, and I've been getting 30 hours, about, and can come when I want! And stay until I want! It's GREAT! :D

Today I have Kickboe and I've been researching races to run--I HAVE to do the Bay to Breakers in May. And there is a Mermaid Run in March in Fremont, all women, and last year the best time for the 10K was 45 minutes. My best 10K is 42:52; I'm already scheming on going up there and WINNING THE WHOLE DAMN RACE!!! Go Bunny Power!!!

Ok I HAVE to go but I PROMISE to be back!
Cheers!!
 
I need to join you losing 5 pounds by halloween!!! I think you will take that race girl!Your superfast and determined.Glad you started excercising again and your feeling good.Cant wait to see your costume!!!
 
Oooh thanks Girls!

So I have been a good bunny--almost 36 hours without beer!! LOL!

Yesterday I did Kickboe and I was all good until....my housemate offered me pizza. Then I had a little bit of chocolate.

However my calories came to 2110, while at 150 lbs and my exercise level, I need 2500, so I had a deficit.

I already weighed 149.5 this morning, but we'll see...

I ran for 45 minutes in the hilly trails where I always used to, for nostaglia's sake (and also because there is shade for my pale skin and it's a total workout).
I plan on doing weights and yoga in additon today. Tis the benefit of working for 4 hours today! My body is going to be even more toned in no time!
Wish me luck!
Oh yeah, I've had 1120 calories so far and I feel GREAT! Had a salmon salad for lunch and an albacore sandwich for b-fast with some snacks.
 
Your doing good VBF, stick to your guns, and YOU HAD ME ROLLING in Korrie's diary you said "WHOOPTE DOO" hahahah I haven't heard anyone say that in a long time, you had me rolling!! I'm proud of you staying away from that beer, BAD BEER< BAD BEER!!!! :mad: I'm also very happy your back to eating your salmon and other good times. STICK TO IT and you will be back down soon!! I bet you look great even now!! PICS, PICS PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :rotflmao:
LATER GATOR!
VBF
 
Wow, you eat more calories than me. I definitely need to make sure I'm keeping my exercise up. You must burn so many with all you do :). Good job on the beer Val.
 
yay! good job Val!

Like I said in my diary, don't worry about it only being 3 dys so far, ya gotta start somewhere! Keep it up hun!!!

You weigh 150 pds??? how tall are ya? I'd be pretty darn skinny at 150! lol
 
Yesterday

Yesterday was great, although I DID consume 2560 calories. BUT take a looky here: I ate an albacore sandwhich, a salmon salad for lunch, and BBQed salmon with a HUGE salad for dinner that my "guy I've been kicking it with" made me! The snacks were apples, South Beach bars, garlic bread and wine at dinner. We shared the bottle--and he said the garlic bread had a lot of butter on it. So even though I was at 1330 calories before dinner, it came out to be a lot. HOWEVER I was so starving after muthafuckin running in the woods for 45 minutes on top of weight training heavily for an hour after work on top of yoga for an hour after that, that I wasn't even full after dinner. Merely satiated. And I added up the calories burned from exercise alone: 1110. So there! Net: 1460. Nice.

Still, at this rate I'll be losing around a lb a week. I wanted to lose more, but what ya gonna do? I'm going to try harder this weekend.

This morning I ran hard in the woods again for 45 minutes, and then worked at my job helping Peg organize her room. It was hard work for 2 hours! Must have burned about 300 calories doing that!

My body is grumpy because of all the activity and it wants to eat and eat. I'm doing quite well on not overeating, and I'm just resisting it right now. Today I had another New Leaf Salmon salad, a Lavender Soda (only 70 calores and pretty good!) a protein bar and cashews, then a South Beach bar and a small slice of pumpkin pie and.......1 cookie. I'm at 1110 calories and its 2:24. The BF is coming to visit me for 3 hours (6-9) because he wants to buy some of my Honda's tires off me for his new Honda. We may go out to eat, I'm not sure!!! It would be wise for me to avoid eating until then, in case I want a big dinner.

Busy at work! Will pop in a few diaries but not many, sorry!
