OHD I had to click on your pom poms again this morning- I thought for sure I was going to plateau already at 155, but this morning was 154. So I cheered for me!
I had an awesome, awesome workout last night! Sometimes when it gets too busy at the gym, I just go home early. But last night I scooted my butt right in there and switched off with people. I work so much harder when it's crowded and I'm stuck in with all the guys who are trying to look all tough. Makes me wanna look tough too. So I upped a few of my weights a little, and capped off the night with a good run!
I've signed up for a 10k run in Dec, which isn't a huge biggie for me, but the clincher this time, is I signed up under family registration. Meaning: I'm going to be running against my boyfriend, his mother, father, sister and brother! It would be nice to run with them, but they're just not that kind. It'll be a competition and I have to train to beat them! haha.
Okey dokey then, I'll talk to you all soon!

Tammy, I got a kick out of your pictures because of the spongebob shirt. Anyone who watches is catches on and calls me Squidward too. Except I'm not so cynical haha!
So I'm going for a lunch hour run, but my knee is feeling brutal today. I think my knee knows ski season is coming up, so it's getting sore to try to warn me right now.
What my knee doesn't know is that I have to punish it to lose weight, and it will thank me later for taking off some of the load! Stupid joints Think I'll swim tonight, they like that.

Jeanspiration
I didn't make it to the gym tonight, as I got called in to work. However, I made it through the mall and got some great jeans! Anyone who knows me, knows I hate to go shopping, particularly for jeans. Well these ones were just too cute. So I tried them on, and OMG they fit perfectly. Little gold sparklies and stuff all over the back pocket, perfect with a top that I got to wear to my Dad's surprise birthday party just before Christmas.
But what did I do, now that for once in my life I found the perfect jeans that fit? I bought a different pair two sizes smaller. Hahaha I'm gonna trick me!
Yah- so anyway, I ate well today, but pigged out on pickles, of all things, pickles!!! 3 cals/2 pickles!!!! Sure the salt is sucky for me, but seriously.... pigging out until you're full with less that 10 cals??? Seems unreal, but the fine people at the pickle company are my new heroes nonetheless.
Hope you all had a similarly exciting evening!

WillB- yep, I wouldn't be surprised if both of us lost the thirty just by avoiding Chinese food forever- but like that would happen. Nice pic by the way- that girl is awesome! Have you seen Sin City? Imagine being able to rock chaps and a bikini top like that??!!
So anyway, today I've been all preoccupied because I just had grad photos done- they all look so awesome that I just can't choose- man that photographer must have had some magic photo God he was praying too when he was taking them. So I'm trying to pick and that's taken up most of my day at work!
I'm hoping to head off to the gym tonight, but I have to stop off at home first and I am sure that I'll get distracted. But hopefully not! I had a big turkey sandwich today that I'd love to burn off- otherwise I swear it's gotta be celery for dinner and that would be ridiculous!!!
Anyway, talk to you all later, take care!!!

Okay- so two nights in a row I didn't go to the gym or go for a lunch time jog. But I managed to eat good and not go on my famous "second week binge & fail"!
I went to my friend's gym tonight with her, and there was a fantastic class that I wish they had at my gym. We did an hour of weights- too many squats to count. I hate squats, but when there are twenty other people looking equally mad about them, it's not so bad!
We were both feeling like Gumbi afterwards. Bought some groceries, walked the dog, and now I need to call it a night! Exhausted!
Take care all!

Wowza- two weeks?
Can't believe I dropped off for almost two weeks!!!
Ryan came home so there was a bit of a setback, and also since they've actually given me a few things to do here at the office, I haven't had as much time!
But I'm baaaaack.
So I lost 8 lbs while Ryan was gone, gained 6 back while he was here, and have lost 7 now that he has left again! My weight is tempermental and definetly not happy around him!
So I now have only 5 1/2 weeks until the Caribbean- thank goodness I'm not dead-set on being 130, cause that would be 21 lbs in 5 wks... not gonna even try for it! 130 can wait, but 135 by New Year's would be awesome. 16lbs, 6 weeks? Sounds about right.
I am worried about the set back in the past two weeks, because of those great jeans that I want to fit into by the 19th. Otherwise I have to think of something entirely different to wear for my Dad's 50th.
(Coincidentally it would also be the perfect outfit to bump into my ex husband in when I am back home- one of those "damn I'm missing out" kinda outfits)
That's all for today.

I keep all my ex's on the Christmas card list unless they were especially stupid! Always try to mention something great that's gonna make them wince, but there's nothing like a photo of you looking hot! (Especially if they have a new woman that's not so cute
haha we women weave an evil web!

Okay-
1. I am going to pack my boyfriend's Ipod without his knowledge when I move.
2. I have a bad knee which causes me to fall to the right if I reach a full sprint.
3. I once quit a job at Starbucks in favour of staying home and cuddling.
4. For a fancy night out, we give the truck a little fresh spray paint.
5. I dress my (large) dog in booties and jackets, but only because he honestly does enjoy it.
