Jen's Diary of Random Stuff

A[quote name="ChefChiTown" url="/t/37050/jen-s-diary-of-random-stuff/460#post_805991"]Oh, I'll be so drunk on Saturday, nothing will bother me, honey.  [/quote]

Hmmmm... that sounds like a challenge. ;)



eta: Just got back from the doctor... I got some nasal steroid spray stuff for my sinuses. She said not to sniff it up there too much...just spray. Which is going to be weird and drippy......and... mmmm ...so, so sexy! :smilielol5:
 
A[quote name="Irishprincess" url="/t/37050/jen-s-diary-of-random-stuff/480#post_806028"]I cant believe you've lost over 50 pounds Jen!! Well done girl! You are doing great :):) xx[/quote]

Thanks! Honestly? I can't believe I have either..hahaha! It's been a very slow process, but overall I feel much better and am happy with what I've done so far. I may not be super disciplined with my diet and exercise, but it works for me and I know it's something that I can keep doing. If I were to go on a strict diet and lose a ton of weight... knowing myself(hahaha) I KNOW that I would never keep it up. I'd gain it all back. So it's taking me longer than I want to lose my weight, and there has been a ton of slip ups, but overall my weight has steadily gone down over the last couple years, so I can't really complain. :)

And I do think coming here everyday helps a lot. I may still mess up, or go off my diet for a day or two...or a week :blush5: but I'm always here reading and it always keeps me from giving up completely and gets me back on track.

-------------------


Day 2 with No Pop: Omg I want some pop!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :willy_nilly:
 
ADay 3 of No Pop: Omg ...I still want pop!!! :smilielol5: Not quite as bad.... I probably wouldn't kill for it right now, but a few minor injuries might occur. lol! Tonight Chef is coming over and making me dinner and then were gonna have drinks, listen to some music and relax. I've been looking forward to tonight all week, so I'm excited it's finally here!! Right now though, I'm off to finish up some dishes, and go take a shower, so I'm nice and squeaky clean!! :D Have a good weekend everybody!!

Thanks Irish!!! Day 4 with No Pop is going...... ok. I'm seriously missing the bubbly fizz, but I'll live. I feel pretty good that I've made it 4 days, 3 more days and it'll be a WEEK!! I know I'll feel much better if I kick the pop habit. So I WILL stay away!!! lol!! :D
 
AThanks iq_rider! Tomorrow is ONE WEEK!!! with no pop :hurray::hurray::hurray: It's a busy week for me this week, and to add to the stress my car is broke and it won't be getting fixed until Thursday when I have the $$$. So yeah... even through all the stress of this week I haven't caved and had any pop. So YEEEAH!! GO ME! lol!!

Thaaaaanks!!!! I'm still doing great. No pop!! I'm on week TWO now!! YAY!!! :hurray::hurray::hurray:

Well it's Friday!! I'm happy it's Friday. Not that I'm really doing anything this weekend, just working and taking a load of stuff to our township cleanup thing, but it's still the weekend. So that's nice. OH...I got my car fixed yesterday to the tune of $372! But it's fixed, and I can drive where ever I want and not have to worry about it overheating. So I'm pretty damn happy about that! LOL! Have a great weekend everybody!! :)
 
AMy nightstand is starting to look like a pharmacy. Seriously I have so many meds...half of them for my sinuses. If someone would like to just stab me in the face to release the pressure...that would be GRRRREAT! SIIIIGH. I haven't gotten a good night's sleep in a while, and I think it's starting to get to me. This "waking up to take more meds because it feels like an alien is burrowing it's way through my face" thing is getting old. Like REEEEALLY old. Someone make it go away!!.....I'll give you...ummm...5 bucks and my mom's cat (he's a great cuddler :D). Siiiiigh. I think I'm gonna have to go back to the doctor.



Also wanted to add I'm 3 days away from it being TWO WEEKS with no pop!! :)
 
A[quote name="ChefChiTown" url="/t/37050/jen-s-diary-of-random-stuff/480#post_807316"]Oh, REALLY?  Judging from the way you were snoring the other night, I'd say you were sleeping juuuuust fiiiine, HAHAHAHA.[/quote]


*GASP* I don't snore!.... :blush5: I don't know what you're talking about!! :p
 
AWell today is the first day in a couple weeks that I've woken up NOT feeling like I was birthing a baby through my right nostril. So that's awesome. One would think that not waking up in pain for the first time in weeks would put you in a good mood, but no. I have too much on my mind, and have had for days now. I'm sure part of it is I'm pmsing. Speaking of pms...I want chocolate so bad. I know it's the cliche thing for a pmsing woman to want...but I want it bad!!

Tomorrow is two weeks with no pop. I'm still doing good with it. I think my mom is about ready to crack though. If she starts buying pop and it's in the house.... I have no idea what will happen....probably not good things. I don't know if my willpower is strong enough to not drink it when it's sitting there in my fridge. :(
 
Great job on kicking the pop habit!!! I remember when I first did that and started drinking mostly water, it tasted so flat and tasteless! But then I got to where I craved it like I used to crave the pop. Did you get headaches the first few days? I did, but then I drank Coke, a lot, and I don't drink coffee or tea, so the caffine withdrawl was not fun.


Of course, now I have to break the habit again. I've gotten into diet cherry 7-up. Now, it's zero calories and non-caffinated, but drinking that also means I'm not drinking water. But at least I don't drink that nearly as much as I used to drink Coke.


Anyway, my advice it to keep it up and don't ever go back! You won't regret it, trust me.

Thanks Mizzie!! I didn't really have a problem with the caffeine headaches, thank goodness. It's been two weeks and 1 day and I'm still going strong. I am having some problems with drinking enough though. I need to step it up on that and drink more water. I bought one of those Mio flavor things for your water, the strawberry melon, that's pretty good. I'm still not too crazy about just plain water...it's sooooo blaaaah..lol. BUT it's getting better, and I'm still trying to drink the plain stuff too. I know that's it's going to take some getting used to, and I know that it's what's best in the long run. I drank way too much Mountain Dew before...that was my pop of choice.... I drank so much of it that I'm surprised I'm not greenish in color..lol. But anyways... I'm doing good... I'm proud of myself for making this change. It's something that I never thought I would be able to do. I've come this far... so I'm not going back! :)
 
AWell I hate to say it, but I broke down and had some pop the other day. I had a moment of weakness and with some instigating from my mom... "Weeeeell we could just have ONE!" That's all it took. lol! I had a slip up, but it wasn't a horrible one. I will say the pop tasted good...not as good as I thought it would though... mostly because it buuuuurned really bad going down, from the carbonation. I'm not used to that anymore...lol. It's been 3 weeks now though, since I started this. I think after next week I'm going to try letting go of something else. I'm not sure what yet though. I'd say chocolate, but I don't know about that...hahahha. I have a week to decide though. :)
 
AWell today is not my day. I got like 3 hours of sleep last night. My sinuses have really been bothering me again the last few days. Mostly just at night when I'm trying to sleep, so that's wonderful. :sigh: I suppose a trip to the doctor is in my near future again.

Even though I got very little sleep last night, I was all geared up to start working this morning. I got very little done last night, because the system was screwing up. I was hoping that it would be fixed this morning, but NOPE. So I haven't really done much at all this morning. I did take a little nap, to catch up on my sleep, which was nice. Lack of money however is NOT nice..lol. So hopefully it's fixed soon.

This week I'm just working, and getting ready for my daughter's birthday party on Saturday. I'm hoping that goes smoothly. I'm having a little anxiety about it already. I'm sure it'll be fine though. I have to pick up a cake this week....that's the only thing really on my list left to do for that. On Thursday I'll be picking something else to give up for the next month. The pop thing went ok. This last week hasn't been the best, I did cheat a couple times, but overall I've done WAY better than I thought I would. So I'm ok with it..lol.

I really need to get back on track with the eating thing though,...I've been eating HORRIBLY... I haven't weighed myself in a couple weeks, and I'm honestly afraid to. I know it's going to be bad, and I don't think I can stomach that dose of reality quite yet. I need to quit messing around and get serious again. I'm so disappointed in myself for getting so off track this time. Getting pissed at myself is usually what it takes to get me back on track, and I'm getting to that point. I was feeling a lot better about myself looks wise, but lately the negative thoughts have taken over and I'm back to criticizing every single thing on me. So I need to start doing better and I need to start doing that soon. I know I can do it, I just have to do it. Which of course is the hard part..lol.

Well I think I'm gonna go check and see if I can work again yet and then get some lunch. I hope everyone is doing well and has a great week!

OH, If you haven't watched the movie Bridesmaids... WATCH IT!!!.....it was absolutely hilarious!

Thanks, Hun! :) I hope it gets better soon too. The lack of sleep thing is a killer for me. No sleep = Jen in a "doesn't-give-a-crap-mood" lmao!


[quote name="ChefChiTown" url="/t/37050/jens-diary-of-random-stuff/480#post_808746"] You're gorgeous; the most beautiful woman I've ever seen.  There's nothing about the way you look to criticize, because you're already perfect.  I'm proud to be seen with you by my side.  Not everybody gets to walk arm-in-arm with the most beautiful woman in the world...but I do.[/quote]

Thank you, Honey.. That put a smile on my face! :)
