Photocrazed - Journey to a Healthy lifestyle

Hi ya!

Thanks for stopping by my diary and giving me an encouraging word!!
I'm happy for your loss. (That sounds inside out! Usually it's "I'm sorry for your loss."!!)
Rock on!!
Cheryl:D
 
Oh, crazy but he brought me back a stuffed shrimp from Bubba Gump Shrimp Co, which of course has become Shrimpy!! hehehe.
That's awesome! I want a shrimp from Bubba Gump Shrimp, just so I can go around making him say lame Forrest Gump quotes and giggling like a ninny.

So true! How funny
 
Dumbbell dead lifts were killer on the hamstrings. I can tell they WILL be sore tomorrow!! I didn't get this in on Wednesday night, so I had to do it today.
 
We'll both be sore tomorrow. I just shoveled for an hour and my arms/hands feel like jello. Gonna be a rough morning. :confused:
 
I am sore from weights today! It kind of feels good though! Hope you don't feel too bad tomorrow - hope you are okay too Sunnydee!
 
Maybe this goes without saying, like maybe all of you know this already, but make sure your peanut butter doesn't have any hydrogenated oils.
Peanut Butter often does and hydrogenated oils are SO BAD for you, they interfere with the body's ability to utilize the good fats (EFA's). Trader Joe's carries peanut butter with no other ingredients besides valencia peanuts. And those are the best peanuts.
 
So what are dumbbell dead lifts? I just joined the gym, and I have been using the cardio room, because the weight room is full of guys with arms as big as tree trunks so I dont go in there!

Congrats on the weight loss!

Smuckers natural works for me. Contains peanuts and salt.

This with a dumbell.
 
Hope your having a great day.

:rolleyes: I'm thinking you're on your ski trip?

If you are, hope you're having a good time!
 
Hey Everyone! I'm back into town and ready to get back on track!

After the last week, I think I'm going to try to wait at least 2 weeks before I weigh myself! :eek: There were so many good places to eat when we were out of town. I can't believe I allowed myself to partake in them to the point that I did. :( I'll spare you the details!

I did go running one day.. it was snowing and very cold, but I still went. I felt so great afterward. As a group we enjoyed ski tubing, shopping, dining, and skiing (for the most part), on the last run down the slopes, I was going way too fast across an icy patch and tried to slow down, my right ski stopped completely but my body still had too much momentum and my leg became twisted up under my body. I heard the loudest popping sound from my knee and am afraid I may have screwed it up as it hurts when I step if my foot is facing the right, or if I turn the leg completely to the left or right. I did get back in the ski's and make it the rest of the way down the mountain.

I do plan to try walking on the treadmill at a slow pace to see how I fare since I'm going to have to walk on a regular basis and have been walking on it since Thursday night. I'm going to try to begin my weight training that Steve set up for me again on Monday, but I'm going to be very careful with the squats (if I do them at all).

I also am going to try call for a doctor's appointment just to have them x-ray or do an MRI on my knee to see if I have torn my meniscus and/or check the ligaments and tendons. I'm hopeful that what I have done just requires a little rest.

I'll add natural peanut butter to my grocery list to pick up with this next trip. I am a huge JIF fan. I love, LOVE Jif. I need to wean myself off of it since it is so bad for me.

Thank you for the advice!
 
Yikes! Sorry to hear about the knee! Yeah, you should definitely get that looked at. You wouldn't want to work an injured knee and risk more damage. I'm glad you had a good time on your trip though. It sounded like so much fun!
 
P.S. Since I have been away so long, I know it's going to be hard to try to catch up with what has happened over the last week. If there is something big and you want to fill me in, please do so, otherwise.. here's a generic GREAT JOB for everyone! :D

Sorry for being lazy!
