Kaitie's Open Diary

*phew* It's been a hectic week!

Things have been going fine, my concerts are over until April. The band played well---I've got a little cold, at least I didn't get the nasty bug going around the school earlier this week....3 kids threw up--ugh!

I feel myself getting comfortable at my current weight and not really pushing to make the numbers smaller---maybe it's just the week. I tend not to worry about my weight during tom, it's not the really number so why worry about it right? But time to get back on the bandwagon.
 
Wow, no concerts until April.....YaY!!! Glad you realize t.o.m. is just temporary..do you have any suggestions on how to get that across to my daughter??? She obsesses, and she isn't overweight either!!
 
I'm missing something here... what instrument do you play again? Glad you're back on the wagon...it seems to be picking up speed around here!
 
LOL, I'm a music teacher so I guess technically I play them all....but trust me, it's nothing big. Once you know how to read music, playing them is easy.

Dari: Wahoo!!! 168!!! Yippee!! It feels great right!?!
 
SWEET!... I'm a drummer..was a drummer in Highschool band! I was the Drum Captain (still have my school jacket with my title embroidered on it!) I'm teaching myself guitar (though I haven't picked it up in months) :(
 
Wow, it's just been super busy! The good news is that although I only exercised on Monday and Tuesday of this week I didn't let my eating get away with me. The 164.5 from last Saturday was definately a fluke but not to off base. I weighed in at 166.5 yesterday and the scale lied to me again today--162, I have a really naughty scale. I'm so not reaching 159 by Christmas but at least I'm going in the right direction. It seems that my weight loss has slowed down to about 1-1.5 pounds every two weeks, which sucks but is sadly the norm. So I won't be a skinny minnie as soon as I wanted but definately before bathing suit season.

All I asked for for Christmas was gift cards or cash to buy clothes but other than a new pair of black pants I'm going to save the money until I'm 150 pounds. Hopefully I'll reach that number by the end of January. *crosses fingers*

So tomorrow, back on the exercise bandwagon. My cold is almost all gone and I don't have any high pressure engagements for the rest of the month. So, I'm gonna be hurting on Tuesday! :)
 
I don't know...I think you can do it! I think you can get down to your target weight for Christmas! But even if you don't..you're STILL doing awesome! Saving all that money for when you hit 150 will be SUCH a good reward! You're pockets will be burning once you get there!!! HA..
 
Holy cow, I don't remember being this busy!

Ok I exercised yesterday and today. The eating has been ok, I crashed and burned at a church function tonight but I did well the rest of today so I should be ok. Also, I totally crave chocolate when I'm sick---that's my excuse and I'm stickin' to it!

My collegue completely bailed on the show---well at least she didn't start it, do a half-assed job, and then leave us hanging. She is crazy though. Totally loony.

The dog ate John's wallet and is now on punishment for the entire evening. Bad dog! Ate his license, the credit cards...everything except the cash. Weird. So Shadow's going to buy 'daddy' a new wallet for Christmas.

I sent out my Christmas cards today so folks you should be getting them soon....Canadian folk I didn't know what kind of stamp to put on them so I put two and I'm crossing my fingers. *crosses them now*

I've got so much in my head, I feel like I haven't been here forever---I know I haven't had anytime to even glance at other people's diaries so I hope ya'll are doing well and gettin' super skinny for the holidays!

My scale keeps lying to me. This morning is said 158.5, then 162, then 167, then 166.5 so who knows how much I freakin' weigh. Probably 167. I always get stuck at the 7's. C'est la vie I suppose.

Hopefully I'll get to talk to ya'll soon!
 
Hello everyone!

Today was fine...my collegue is loca---completely loca. I'm just tired of her talking about people behind their backs---it's freakin' endless. She complains about EVERYONE!! One day she bitches about them, the next she's smiling to their face--it's so annoying.

Exercises:

201 calories on the elliptical
152 calories on the bike

and I cleaned my classroom---took me a whole freakin' hour!!
 
Hey Katie! I work with crazy sh!t talkers too, it drives me nuts. I can't believe she bailed on the show! Did you talk to her boss about that? Thats just effin wrong! it makes me irrate and I don't know why. Well, here's to YOU looking like the stronger person. show us some muscle now.
 
I hope you get to catch your breath over the holidays and get some enjoyment in.

Nice job on stay strong with your goals :)
 
*flexes her biceps and watches them flop over* Ah well, some day there'll be some nice muscle there. ;)

Yeah, she really isn't making a great impression with the boss--maybe it's just the brown noser in me but if the big kahuna tells you to do something you do it--and you do it without complaint. I don't know, my word for her is jaded. She just doesn't seem like a happy person, and like I don't think that she sees that she's so unhappy. Can a person really be content going through like complaining about everyone? Jumping from job to job because of 'administrative problems'? My personality is typically bubbly and happy go lucky, it's just really hard for me to see other people being truly happy in life any other way....
 
Wow...you just described my brother! I hasn't held a job for longer than 6-8 months because "those people are crazy". If he's looking for office work, he needs to realize that office politics are not ideal ANYWHERE. I try my best to keep my nose to the grind. Wanted to say good morning! Have a good one!
 
Alrighty! Cinderella auditions are officially done and I think we have a really good cast. I'm a little nervous about the kids bursting into tears on Monday when they don't see their name on the list but that's just the way it goes. I've had so many kids and parents sucking up to me these past fews days it's been crazy!

Exercises for today:
307 calories on the bike/elliptical (7.63 miles)
100 chest presses
30 overhead presses
30 bicep curls

I really didn't want to go to the gym, Cinderella wore me out but I knew I had to go....
