bday message hehe

Hello all!!!! THANK YOU SOOOO MUCH for the bday wishes! I had a very nice day today. I started out the day on my way to work out but decided to visit my grandparents. ( sick grandpa) I picked up an old civil war movie for him and some gerber daisys for her and headed over and made us breakfast. ( grandma and I ... grandpa cannot eat at all so we kept it quiet so he didnt get sad. anyways, was planning to go to the gym but then decided to go to my grandparents instead... just because my time with my grandfather is limited. I am glad i did...


kind of did put me in a funk the rest of the day... not a bad mood... just a funk. kind of bummed about how sad and scared he is...he was crying to me today..... never ever saw him cry before.. he is so tired... so sick... so sick of being tired and sick.


ANYWAYS... on to the fun stuff. Went to a hockey game tonight with my boyfriend... that was fun! Then met up with my mom and her boyfriend. They got me some cool stuff..... they also got me a whole box of the following
cheese pretzals, cheetos, fritos, peanut M&M's... you name it. didnt get the memo i guess about my new healthy life style. needless to say the boyfriend is THRILLED.. he has snacks for the week hehe.


Brawny.... my virtual cake was a New York Cheese cake with lots and lots of canned cherries on top!!!!

yummmmmmmm


thanks again for the bday wishes I am touched.



now..........

Glad to hear you had a good time. well, you have a wonderful day and dont forget to drink that WATTER :)
 
Today i got up early ( well.... 8:30am) and went to the gym for a work out. met a friend i hadnt seen in awhile so we got on an eliptical machine and worked out while we talked. I actually was on it for 75 minutes and it FLEW BY. anyways, burnt about 600 calories and then had to leave because sunday mornings i go out with friends to breakfast.

I am excited for this week... i think ill break my 143 plateau... which would be very exciting.


Tonight we cooked out on the grill. i made my boyfriend and his brother hamburgers and i whipped up some mean turkey burger and had that without the buns, and some grilled asparagus.

YUM.


for dessert: NON FAT white chocolate mocha from starbucks ( tall)

that was my treat before the start of an intense week.


How was everyone elses weekend!!! :)
 
today is a bummer.... going to see my Pap Pap.... he took a turn for the worse and hospice says he has 2 weeks MAX....

i think its much less than that. He keeps saying he knows he is going to die... he feels it
 
Keep your head up

I'm sorry to hear about your Pap Pap. You just got to remember the life he lived, the people he knew, how he effect them in positive ways and that he will live on through you.

You did great yesterday. Keep it up. And thang 75 minutes!! I am warn out.LOl! Have a good day. And dont forget to drink that WATER missy! :)
 
Good Morning all!
I wanted to stop in and say hello... update my peeps on my little life. Things have been alright exercise and health wise..... yesterday I had a small stress caused eating day.... so i did actually eat party mix and chocolate for the first time in almost two months! i was at grandmas and she was stress eating and its no excuse... but i had it anyhow. But hey .... everyone has bad days... as long as i do not start that on a regular basis i should be fine. I think i still was in my calorie intake but still you feel crappy when you eat bad!

Yesterday was an off day for exercise... spent from 2:00-6:30 with grandpa, then headed home to clean and get some housework done. He is not doing well at all... keep him in your thoughts and prayers ( if you do that sort of thing). Its been a rough time. Poor guy!



I am excited to work out tonight though!!!!! :p I am going to attch two pictures of me. One was taken in the fall.... then i started to work out in Feb and so this morning i took the picture.... had to edit it in paint bc it was a little riskay lol........ but it looks like my mid section has slimmed down a bit????? what do you think progress or not really??? hehe.

Love you all so much! your support is amazing.:beating:

angry, bitchy post.... sorry dudes

man i lost my fan club as well! haha


anyways im a little pissy today.:cuss: why the hell can I not lose anymore weight!?!?!?!:cuss: i am still watching my eating habits, i go to the gym 5 times a week...... I DONT GET IT. yesterday i weighed myself and i was 144.... then i look next time ill be 143... then 144... then 145... then 143.:seeya:

IM SO PISSED OFF RIGHT NOW. i know im sounding like a brat... and idiot whatever... but i do all that work and have not seen one effing pound drop in 3 damn weeks.:cuss::icon_bs:

what gives.

ugh. worst part is it affected my work out last night because i was just so frustrated and to be frank... did not feel like doing ANYTHING because after all... i was thinking what the hell is the point.



grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr:cuss::cuss::cuss::icon_bs:
:leaving:
 
you still got me as a fan, i just really hurt my back a couple days ago and haven't been doing much. i didn't go to the gym today. don't let it get you down. it happens for 2 weeks i was only losing a pound, and who knows what will happen since i can't workout (well i haven't worked out since tuesday). things will get better. and by the way looking quite good there! keep it up and it'll come off.
 
ya know... i think im just feeling beat down this month with all the emotional crap..... and then not losing ANYTHING just really puts me over the edge.



just a little blue.:(
 
I would suggest staying on top of your water, that is very important and are you continuing to repeat teh same exercise routine?Sometimes we need to switch things up for our body.

You can def see a difference.

What I tell myself when the scale is beign an ass which is usually alwayus, lol!I look at my pics, take in consideration how I feel and how most of my pants and panties fall off and give myslef a pat on teh back.I think exercising does so much more for us thatn we realize and can see.

You have lost 10 lbs but your pics speek volumes:)!!!
 
Thanks Lady..... you are right. I have been slacking on the water lately.... its like ive been too busy and havent thought to stay on top of that.

I think im stressing too... which is causing me to be exhausted after work and slack on my exercises. I do need to switch up my routine..... i do the same thing almost all the time. I get to the gym and i just dont feel good.... no energy... motivation..... I think alot if emotional exhasution. Work is slow.... I am suppose to sell 55K worth of training each month. This month i have sold $218.00..... and thats not due to lack of effort.... its just not working out. So this scares me about layoffs etc.


Anyways, any suggestions of good ways to get myself pumped up about exercise despite my crappy outlook? God, i hate feeling like this. its terrible!!!

My poor boyfriend... so patient when i am being a terrible grumpy bitch hehe. what a sweetheart.

Thank you for the support. Just having a poopy down day. :nopity:wahhhhh i need to shut up about it already!!!!
 
:nopity:wahhhhh i need to shut up about it already!!!!

Geesh girl, have you been to my diary lately, LOL...ALl i have been doing is bitching and complaining:D!!!

As far as exercise, i dunno, I havent been to motivated myself, well ive been wanting to but my kids have both been sick and it has been on thing after anothe rin my household...being a single mom kinda sucks lol!!!My lack of sleep is catching up to me my body isnt happy:(I think tha tis why the shin splints and aligments. lol...My body is telling me something.
 
i really don't know what to say to help you, but for me, who is currently in the opposite situation, its my boost. When i workout i feel like a million bucks. its only an hour of work, but my body feels so rewarded after wards. i feel absolutely great! Sometimes we need breaks, but working out should never feel like a chore. if it does you are sure to sell yourself short on the workout. That said, use you workouts as the one constant in your life that is always positive! Because well it is. you are doing yourself a favor when you workout. and you should happy for because you body responds by shaping up into the sexy woman you want to be!

as far as weight fluctuating, it does that. it could be you do the same exact workout every time, where you are not challenging your body they you used thus losing weight a lot less frequently. Also, don't forget if you are doing weights you are building muscle. when you are stagnant on weight, check your body fat percentage. if it is lower than before that means you have replaced fat with muscle and remember, muscle is heavier than fat. keep at missy. you hit that goal. i believe you, just make sure you do to!
 
Hey mMarie! I'm new here and love your diary! I would say give yourself a couple days off and up your calories just a bit to see if that helps. Last weekend, I worked my ass off 4 days in a row and restricted my calories. ON Friday, I was at 176 and by monday, by taking 3 days off dropped down to 173. Everyone is different but sometimes our bodies need a rest. Also, for women in general, stress is a HUGE factor for not losing weight. With your grandpa and everything going on, your body is probably staying "stop.". Just a thought and keep posting girl!
