MGB's Diary: "Clean Your Plate," they said.

[Boam46]

Hey Sheryl--

Sorry you weekend wasn't so great... at least you stayed on track with your diet and managed to get exercise in. Go You!

I'm sure you'll be fitting into some of those jeans in no time!

You always make me smile with your upbeat happy and encouraging posts in my journal.

O0ooo and let's not forget the presidental challenge ass you've been kicking!

 

[MsGhettoBooty]

Thanks for your message on my diary. It came just at the right time! As my flat mate was leaving we did the usual 'have a good day' routine and then she says ' dont get any skinnier'. Ok this girl is really slim, and Im not (yet). It would have been nicer to here ' I can rally notice you've lost weight' or' you're looking good' thats positive, but why say don't loose any more weight, it is not as if I even have a health BMI yet. OOOOOOHHHH it has made me mad!

Dateing is non-existent at the moment, but I'm busy enough anyway with work, and Im buying a house, and I'm dieting so lots to concentrate on!
Well on that note better get to work. Good luck with Power90, I reckon if you feel it it has done good. There is nothing quite like feeling your muscles becoming toned and firm...apart from feeling them on some hunk of spunk!!!

Sara

Well you know, Sara... some people just really suck at giving compliments. For instance, the other day some guy told me that I have a "big ol' ass." Now.. normally, I would probably kick someone in the teeth for saying something as stupid as that. However, he was an Eminem wannabe and thought he was complimenting me. Ummm yah... so I'll chalk that one up in the "Horrible Compliments Book." hahaa! So don't be angry. Just be thankful she didn't say, "Hey... I'm likin' that big ol' ass, little mama."

As for dating... Sheesh, you're one busy lady. However, it'll ALL be worth it in the end. You'll be a proud owner of a home. You'll be successful with work. You'll be healthy and confident. And once you allow men into your life, it'll be like opening the flood gates... Keep me forewarned, so that I can tie myself down first. hahaaaaaa!!

I'm going to make this brief. I ended up passing out for almost 2 hours maybe an hour and a half after finishing Power 90's Sculpt 1-2. Ha!

Also, I'm 78% into reaching the bronze medal from the President's Challenge, so I'm even happier! YAH! First the bronze and then it's the silver. WOOT! I promise to get back to everyone tomorrow. I really am so happy for all of you stopping in and giving me support and motivation. If at anytime, I can be of assistance, please let me know. I don't know all too much, but if I can help in any way, I will. I need to finish up a few things on this end before heading off to bed. Wishing you all a wonderful evening.

Ooooh, I would've secretly taken that as a compliment . That means my booty is still pert and getting noticed. That's a good thing .

 

[ummhusayn]

big ol ass???????? what the helll.....did he just come out of mowhere and say that or were you in a conversation with him??? I probably would have been too shocked to say anything back...lol

Well your workout is kick ass as usual and eating is fantastic....you dont need my help

Have a great day!!!

[johanna11786]

Great Job!

MsGhettoBooty, I think you are doing GREAT! I just finished reading your diary and all i have to say is "GIRL, YOU HAVE SOME ENERGY!"...lol.. That's REALLY GOOD! you seem like a really nice and HAPPY person. Well, i just wanted to pass by and let you know that your doing pretty good. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!

***Johanna***

 

[MsGhettoBooty]

Hi MGB. I've been reading through your diary and I'll have to say it's like drinking a shot of caffeine. You are very positive and energetic. That's great. I also do TurboJam when the weather won't let me run outside. I LOVE it. And my baby thinks it's funny when her mommy shakes her booty!

It sounds like you have a stellar nutrition and exercise plan. I wish you the best of luck!

AmyRb- Hmmm... so in other words, you think I'm a crackhead? haha I'm only kidding. Thank you so much for dropping in Amy. Actually, I've always been a very energetic person.. unfortunately I didn't put all of my energy into working out and being active. Instead, I used it to shovel food in my mouth. Ha! However, things are changing and that's what matters. I ADORE Turbo Jam. One of these days, I'm hoping to meet Chalene Johnson to thank her.

Aint it nice to have a butt ton of food and still be under 2000 calories.

Hey whats this hmmmmmm???????

HillBillyLee- As I told Blancita, I'm a HUGE fan of food.. Yummmmm. It's so amazing, because I would have NEVER thought I would be able to eat as much as I do while still seeing a difference in my body. My sister saw a very recent pic of myself and she got all worried. "OMG Sheryl.. are you eating?" Ummmm yah.. I eat way more than my husband does. HA! I reassured her that I was doing this naturally and not with some whack ass diet pills or meal replacement shakes.

Oh... and The Sheryl Ghetto Banana Burrito is something I usually eat when I'm in need of a good pre/ post workout snack. It's really simple.

You take a whole wheat tortilla and smother one side with 1-2 tbs (depending on your workout and how much protein you need) of peanut butter (none of that 25% less fat stuff.. just good ol' PB, since these are "good fats"), then you take a small banana (~6") and roll it like a burrito... enjoy! It's a quick snack that's packed with protein, carbs and well 'nanners are always good.. haha

Ha! It caught me by surprise and then I realized he was complimenting my ass, so I had to run with it. I looked at him with a little curled "ghetto lip" and said, "Word?" LMAO!! There are times when I should just keep my mouth shut and walk along.. but I HAD to! hahaaa!!! Then he explained it was a compliment. It was hilarious. I mean it's not everyday you hear Eminem Jr. rapping about your ass, right?

big ol ass???????? what the helll.....did he just come out of mowhere and say that or were you in a conversation with him??? I probably would have been too shocked to say anything back...lol

Rena

Ummm yah... it came out of nowhere really. Besides, you know how ALL "the hardcore thugs" hang outside infront of Walmart. And to think... I just wanted to pick up a damn cantaloupe, man. Ha! And yes, I do need your help.. you keep me sane. hahaaaa!

[ummhusayn]

Rena

 

[sunnydee]

Hey Sheryl! Maaannnn... you're kicking some ass with your workouts! And with the President's Challenge! Holy shit! I don't think I'm even 20% of the way yet. But I've only been doing it for a week and the past 3 days have been too busy for me to exercise.

Feel happy about your "big ol' butt". lol I just saw a recent pic of myself from behind and literally almost cried to see that I no longer have a huge booty. It hasn't disappeared and gone flat or anything, but it's no longer so... out there.

 

[bikinibound]

Hey Sheryl, you're hilarious! keep kickin' ass girl--just don't lose your ghetto booty in the process...lol I have no ass--flat as a pancake..

What is this president's challenge? I'm curious.

 

[AmyRB]

Don't worry about the comment. Guys like a woman with a little "junk in her trunk"! Plus it make it much easier to do the "booty bump" to your favorite song. Have you ever seen a chick with no butt try to dance?

 

[MsGhettoBooty]

johanna11786- Hey girl, thank you so much for peeping on me. I just left a post in your journal and am wishing you all the best with your goals. Don't be surprised if I drop in from time to time to leave some silly ass message. It's my nature to do so. We can't all be too serious now, right?

hey girlie...how you doing today?? By the way...just thinking...you better be posting before-after pics!!!! You really are inspiring!!!
Hope your day goes well.
when r u starting school?

Rena

OOooh girl, you know I'll be posting before and after pix. Maybe a couple of weeks ago, one of my best friends sent me a pic that was ~5-6 years old, of a fashion show we had gone to. I told him, "Oh cool.. thanks for sending that." And he replied with, "Did you happen to see yourself in the pic? I sent it because I love you and am proud of you." Huh? Wtf? I was in the pic? Girrrrrrrlllllllll.... I have no idea HOW I missed myself. I swear, I didn't even recognize myself. I'll post it tonight along with a recent pic of me and Sean (husband). As for school, I've decided to just wait for the Spring semester, because I'm planning to surprise my family during the beginning of December.

Hey Sheryl! Maaannnn... you're kicking some ass with your workouts! And with the President's Challenge! Holy shit! I don't think I'm even 20% of the way yet. But I've only been doing it for a week and the past 3 days have been too busy for me to exercise.

hehee Sunnnnyyyy! Hey girl, I read about your wild nights during the George St. Fest as well as the crazy Er shifts. It's all good. At first you don't even think a bronze medal is in your grasp, but once the ball starts rolling, you'll get it sooner than you know it. Oh and what motivation it is! Woot!

As for the "big ol' butt"... Oh I love my ass except I wouldn't mind it being a little smaller... smaller to the point I can wear low jeans and not be afraid of unexpected ass cleavage exposure. I used to have one of those asses where it would stick out really far. I mean, you could put a saddle on that badboy. Oh and your comment so reminded me of "I Like Big Butts" by Sir Mixalot! Ha! "It's so.... out there" hahaa!

I'm sure you'll be fitting into some of those jeans in no time!

You always make me smile with your upbeat happy and encouraging posts in my journal.

O0ooo and let's not forget the presidental challenge ass you've been kicking!

Jenna girl- For some odd reason when it comes to BCBG I become such a brand name whore. I'm normally not like that, but damn do I love myself some BCBG. I don't know what the hell I was thinking when I decided to buy a size 8 jeans. That's without stretch and heaven knows, stretch jeans are a thick girl's best friend. hahaaa! I just bought them because they were mispriced @ $15. Hmmm... yah.. that won't be anytime soon, so we'll just have to be patient. hahaaa!

As for the President's Challenge, I keep looking at the order link and telling Sean, "So I want that one, ok?" haha He thinks it's cute and is proud of me that I'm actually doing something that makes me happy.

Hey Sheryl, you're hilarious! keep kickin' ass girl--just don't lose your ghetto booty in the process...lol I have no ass--flat as a pancake..

What is this president's challenge? I'm curious.

Hey BB,

thanks for dropping in! If you like, I'd be more than happy to donate some of my ass your way... I'll have to see if my ex fiance is available. HA! Okay.. okay.. bad Sheryl.

Oh as for the President's Challenge, it's located in the Club Challenges link. Heck, let me just grab the address. http://weight-loss.fitness.com/club-challenges/13660-presidents-challenge.html Mal posted it and ever since, I've been logging in every exercise. It motivates me to get out there and workout whether I want to or not. My favorite feature is the "compare with others" tab. It allows you to compare your day's total points to those in the group, your age, your city, your state, etc. If you have any questions, just ask.

Hey that sounds good. That would really hit the spot after the gym when I'm totally starved lol.

 

[bikinibound]

Have you ever seen a chick with no butt try to dance?

Yeah, that would be me...lol I've got all kinds of goods in the hood, but this baby ain't got no back..lol Sheryl you can give me some of your booty as long as I can give you some of my belly. how's that sound?

Thanks for the info on the president's challenge. I'm going to check it out right now.

 

[Boam46]

Man I have all these cloths in random places that I bought when they were on clearance because "I was gonna be that size" someday... and dammit... I've never gotten into any of them before LOL

Hopefully this time I can! HA!!! Right now I have size 14's laying around it'll be a miracle when I can get my ASS into one of those! I"m with you in the big ass club! I also have really bit boobs... neither of which seem to be getting smaller... so kimberly you can have some of mine too... I just dont' want anymore belly either!

I hope you're having a great day

 

[sunnydee]

Argh, damn you lucky girls who get the booty and the boobs! I got the booty, but didn't get much in the boob department. But when I was in New York in June, I found these awesome inserts for my bra that make me a C cup! lol They were on clearance for $7 (I think) and were regularly $30-something! I know it's totally equivalent to a 14 year old stuffing her bra with socks, but I don't give a damn. My boyfriend calls them my "sweater lies".

Oh God have I... it's amazing what some women will submit at youtube. hahaaaa!

Sheesh... going into law school AND having big boobs and butt? Wow.... your man's lucky, girl. Most men can only dream of that... Curvy's the only way to go.

My sister has those and she loves em!! I see it this way, it's soooo much safer and way cheaper than buying breast implants, so why the hell not? If it makes you feel good, then that's all that matters.

[maleficent]

you're pictures are beautiful

 

[MsGhettoBooty]

Talking about boobs... whenever I see this pic, it makes me crack up. This is of me and my husband's close friend, Jesse. The bartendar gave me a milk shot since I was the designated driver that night! Hahahaaaaa!



-Sheryl

Oh Oh I just posted some before and in betw/ pix in that section, everyone!
There, Rena! hahaaaaa
