Renewing my sense of worth. Again.

Hey everyone! I AM still here lol. I ended up taking 3days in a ROW off from the gym; my neck was just aweful. NO idea why it was hurting so bad. Feeling much better today, and will most def be at the gym tonight :) been trying* to clean my house(my sister and I both work pretty much everyday, so there isn't a lot of time to get shit done) but I've also just been enjoying a day off. Ahhh. Fourth day off in January. Wow. Its cool, make that money, pay those bills! Food has been decent the last coupla days, today is kinda iffy, but I haven't lost motivation, so theres no worries there :)
Thank you ALL so much for checkin in on me, it all helps in the long road ahead!
 
Ohh man, was not really feeling going to the gym tonight :rolleyes: after taking 3 days off from it, that feeling just sorta sinks in and builds itself a goddamn log cabin and refuses to leave! uugggh. And it didn't help that it started snowing. AGAIN. I have such a beautiful little car, and I would REALLY love to drive it again... Snow snow go away!

So, after brushing the 24891143435345467 inches of snow off of my car, I get my butt to the gym. I only did cardio tonight; made it there a litttttle bit later than I shoulda considering I work at 10am, but oh well, on we go. muscles STILL hurt from last weeks weight increase, lol. GOOD hurt, of course :rolleyes:
tonights cardio:
crosstrainer- 65min 4.73miles. Then did a 2nd little sesh, just to finish up a tv show(lol losssser!), for 15min 1.05miles. As you can tell, I used the second session as a verrrry cooled down go of things. THe first one tho- getting to 4.73, ohhh yeah! Super happy bout that :) Didn't think I'd get that close to that number again for a while, so to actually get THERE was euphoric.
Alrighty! Off to bed, will be back tomorrow ;)
 
So my neck is pretty much 100% now; had a tiny twinge earlier in the day, but that was it. HOWEVER- Eff my life- I pulled a muscle or something right behind my rib cage on the left side; not noticeable at all till I move weird OR lift weights, then its one of those pains that takes your breath away from ya. Uggh. Musta slept wrong, I've had this happen a few times before. No biggie; will just hafta take it a bit easier on the weights and whatnot.
Food today was pretty damn good! It probably has a lot to do with the fact that I'm SO broke that I can't afford to overeat :rolleyes: but I'll call it just focusing on my cals ;)
Workout: cardio, crosstrainer- 65min, 4.72miles. Weights- tris and back- back wasn't that much, due to the fact that I kinda need to breathe, lol, and everytime I pulled I lost my breath. Uggh. I hope that goes away SOONNNN.
Anyway, off to bed, working till 1230am tomorrow; will be back before work at 330pm to post in the challenge- the other day(since I'm a chronic weigher :rolleyes: ) I hit the 15lb mark :D :D :D Its not OFFICIAL till tomorrow, soooo we'll see.
Have a great day everyone!
 
Nice workout Jess!! Glad your neck is on the mend. Whew!!

I hope that pulled muscle heals quick. You are hurting yourself right and left, just like the real contestants on the BL Show! You're strong! You'll push through!!
 
Sounds like you've gotten some good workouts in. I know you surprised yourself hitting 4.73 miles on the xtrainer, especially when you didn't even feel like hitting the gym that day. You hit 4.72 right after that. Way to get after it, lady!

Thanks! I know- it sorta seems like I can't go any LOWER than 4.7 now. Ahh, I'll take it! lol. Hope I can keep that momentum up :D
 
So, I just weighed myself for the BL challenge: -3lbs! Wooo! I'm officially* at the 15lb mark now. I would realllly love to maintain a 2 to 3 lb loss every week; I know that can be a little much sometimes, but I've just gotta bust my ass. I'd like to lose another 65lbs- from there, I'll decide if and where I wanna keep going to. 15lbs on my size isn't really that noticeable to anyone but me yet: my clothes are looser, but otherwise not a lot to see yet. I figure another 20'll do it lol. I told my sister the other day that losing weight right now isn't economically smart for me, hahaha! I can't afford new clothes :rolleyes: I kid, tho. I kid. I'd rather be skinny and broke than chunkay with a little extra money and not hafta buy more clothes. :)
 
Today. Ohhh today. What a day. Started out terrific, due to SUCH a wonderful weigh in, yayyy! Then went downhill at work. Urrg. Seriously busy- no big deal. People and coupons=crazed maniacs. Serrrriously?! Oh my GOD, I had to deal with so many different people who claimed they didn't get their damn .55cent coupon scanned, LITERALLY throwing a temper tantrum over it, and as soon as I showed it to them on the effin reciept- "ohh, teehee, didn't see that." Annnnd they leave. Thanks for makin my day assholes! psh. redic. So overall, work was just super annoying. Then I get home, excited to watch BL, annnnd my dvr didn't record it. :( damn it. I'm gonna hafta wait HOW long to see it online?? I'll just hafta see if my sister kept it at her house. Eff.
ahh. my little rant for the day. :rolleyes: do you people ever get sick of reading this crap?? lolllll!

Todays workout- cardio, crosstrainer- 65min, 4.72miles.
Back muscle feeling better, tho still uncomfy if I twist just right; so I sorta just finished up my weights from yesterdays session.

Okie dokie. Off to bed; work another 330 to 1230am shift tomorrow, hopefully its a BETTER day! :D
 
lol ok I will tell you what I told Amy when she got people like this..Be a Duck. Let it wash off on your spirit :)

And usually BL and shows like that are available the next day.


Annnnd finally..look around. Find something that weights 15 pounds or pick up one of those 5 pound bags of sugar. Now imagine three of those bags.

You don't have that anymore. Remember that and that should make you feel alot better.

Letting it roll, buddy. letting.it.roollllll. lol. Somedays ya just CAN'T, ya know?! Like I get sooo pissed at someone that I'm having this elaborate screaming fit in my head, when all the while I've got this fake smile plastered on my face and I'm nodding, saying, Yep, I totalllllly understand. Its my pleasure to deal with it. psh. :rolleyes: oi vei.

About the 15lbs- when ya actually put 15lbs in a visual, its amazing at what it can do for ya! I've got these adjustable weights that I bought a while back, and moved it to 15... eff- I can't hardly lift it! Imagine what it'll be like when I've got the next 65 or so off!

THanks for stoppin in :D
 
Today was a decent day all around! Gym tonight- cardio, crosstrainer: 65min, 4.71miles. Ooops, slowed down a little bit... was WAY sweatier tho. Ish. Then almost did the splits on the ice. ERRRG. That coulda been real bad.
Anyway, short post tonight! Its 4am, gotta go to bed, work at the pool hall at 10am... blahhhh. Need I say more?? :rolleyes:

Hey Jess!

I noticed that there was a rerun this week of last weeks show, prior to this weeks show on TV. You might be able to watch it again next Tuesday, check to see if they are repeating it.

Girl, I hear you on the coupons!!! My goodness, I see it all over the place now. The other day I was at CVS, and this gal had a coupon for EVERYTHING!!! She was holding up the line, and then at the end tried to give another coupon for 20% off for spending $20 or more.

Only thing was is that with all her coupons she only spent $18 'before tax' so she couldn't use it. So what does she do? She leaves the line to go buy something else while we all wait...... Comes back with some candy, and when it's rang through she pays $14.00 for a half a cart full of stuff! I was not only annoyed but extremely impressed! CVS got robbed that day!

lol, that is quite the coupon clipper! there are some real intense people who come in and buy TONS of groceries, and end up paying a quarter to half of what the original cost was. Very impressive, although very annoying, lol.
 
I did NOT go to the gym the last 3days, and I'm skipping it tonight again :( A: I'm just so effing beat. The most sleep in the world wouldn't help right now... B: my muscle cramp/strain whatever it is, is BACK. And worse than ever! I went to a friends house tonight and had to sit perfectly straight, with no major twisting around because if I did, oh jeez. the pain is horrible, and the way it just rips the breath right outta me is insane. Didn't eat all that great either today. Eff. its gotta get better soon. Alrighty, gonna go turn my heated mattress pad on high; hopefully laying on that will ease it a bit. eerrggg..
 
Get well soon. With all the good work you've been doing a break won't do any harm, albeit a planned one would have been nicer than an enforced one.
