SaturdaySaint's Diary

okay...its 10pm and 5 am is coming fast. I need to get up and work out... Bob (from the biggest loser) is gonna kick my butt in the morning and I'm all for it! WOOHOO... I'll try my best to make the rounds...I started to tonight but got side tracked by too many things! HA... I'm sorry for not hitting everyones..oh..and MTM&K is feelin SLIGHTLY better... more cramping, no spotting though...we'll see what happens.. night all
 
Okay..so I haven't headed to bed JUST yet. My honey is not feeling good tonight. and the biggest part is... she's sleeping on our sofa chair because it helps her sleep upright...her indigestion is a mother! So she's a little down tonight as well.. misses sleeping next to me... :( Soon we will be able to though.
 
*HUGS* Im sorry to hear all you've been through...I sure hope she gets feeling better...only 8 weeks in, I hope it gets better and not worse...or it will be a looong pregnancy...*HUGS* to you both...
 
HEYlo everyone.... It's your Resident Saint in the house. This weekend and past few days have been a little tough...but it's okay. I wanted to thank EVERYONE for their support... It would take me forever to thank everyone individually... and that's time I Don't have right now...maybe during lunch... but right now I need to run through this and work on some actual work! HA...

MTM&K is still feeling Incredibly sick (as you can see from her diary post) and I'm trying my best to help her the best I can. I just wish I could stop the pain..the nauseousness..the sickness...

And I ended up oversleeping this morning. Didn't get to exercise and I'm kicking myself. I think it's because my subconscience is used to my alarm, so I'm switching the tone of the alarm so I can get up. I don't want to lose my routine. I missed friday and saturday... got an hour work out in on Sunday...wanted to do it as well today... missed it though. I did lose .5 lbs so, that's good at least. I am really liking how much body is turning out... I just can't wait to get down... and post my "after" picture. I WILL make my goal this year... I will lose the weight..and I will keep it off! And get all buff and what not ;) Have a great day everyone... back to work for me (with the occasional comment left for everyone :) )
 
Good morning! Sorry to hear all your going through. And probably it's the stress that made you sleep in! That's my excuse for everything!! Have a good day!!:)
 
Goodmorning to you! Hey, just curious, did you say you work out with Bob in the mornings? Does he have his own DVD out? I'm so behind the times, do tell!

Bob is the trainer on the Biggest Loser Work out video. And let me tell you he kicks my @$$ every morning. (that I actually get up LOL). The thing that I love about it is, they have the people who are constestants on there as well and they're not at ALL at their final weight, so they're struggling as well... it's SO awesome... can't rave about it enough... Had half a grapefruit with lunch...thinking about having the other half (can you tell that I love them)

Oh...but Also found out that Bob has a program that you can actually have PERSONALIZED work outs with him. The program is $225 and you get 3 dvds sent to you, and you communicate with him via email and he checks your progress...and changes the dvds that he sends to you to fit YOUR capability! It's absolutely amazing sounding... it's from his "Push" set... just awesome!
 
Heya's Saturday,
Congrats on doing the biggest loser
workout I heard it kicks butt and if it's anything like the show
I am sure the weight will just pour off of ya!(Makes a note to go
on ebay and find that DVD)Have a gr8 Monday,Tammy:)
 
Hey!

Sorry to hear that there's been some health issues with the pregnancy, but I'm glad to hear that it's under control to a degree.

You're totally kicking my arse (see how I spelled that !) with regards to weight loss. I had a great christmas of stuffing my face but I'm back on track now, but I'm way behind you.

I've said it before, but I am REALLY going to get stuck into the Fitness! thingy with Maya this week. My main problem is the fact that I have almost no floor space in my study. Just enough to lay down but then I can't see the screen. Ah well, I will work it out.

I'll start walking to work again this week now my foot's better, but those workouts you're doing sound pretty intense!

Hope to chat again sometime, still can't work out what Skype is up to on my computer.
 
Hey you'll get through this...one day at a time...You are on hell of a man and dont ever forget that...alot of us woman only wish and dream to have a man as supportive as you...Im here if ya need me...Dont forget to take care of yourself as well...
 
Hey Saturday,
Your doing great and I mean that in the
emotional department to,things will start looking up
for ya soon,Have a gr8 day/night,Tammy:)
 
Hey SS, just stopping by to give you a hug, a pat on the back and to say you're a great man, husband and father. I know things are tough now, but they'll get better! Have a great day! :)
 
Wow SS! Sounds like your wife is going through the worst pregnancy ever with the best husband ever! :)

I so admire the way you are managing all that and staying with your health goals. I am focussing on making sure this is stuck in my brain because I know there will be a time when I will need to remember how much someone can cope with and still maintain the right attitude to their health and keep moving forward with it.

I do hope an easier time is coming for you guys really soon.

Hey there Tammy, It really does kick my butt... I did it this morning, without the strength and sculpting side... And that's fine. Not supposed to do it every day. And I'm feeling great this morning. I have lost...I've lost another 2 lbs! well... more than that... it's just the passed few day's so...it's been a bit more than that.

Tomble! Whats up man. Long time no freakin talk man! You are a busy man aren'tcha? With the pregnancy, I just want to take the pain away from her. Makes me sad that there isn't more that I can do. And the weight... I've been determined to knock this weight off as FAST as I can. And the thing is, I'm so nervous that if I drop my "guard" on my food plan, that I'll never get back into it.... I should have better faith in myself to be clearly honest...

I know what you mean about not having room. I'd LOVE to have just a large open room that I could flail my arms and kick my legs like there's no tomorrow...but alas I can't :( But I'm still workin that dvd like crazy!) We DEFINITELY need to hook up with skype again!

Hey felici. It's not so much that it's this crazy mental anguish, I'm amazed at MTM&K and how she manages the house, kids, cleaning, meals, etc. Stay at home moms don't get enough credit. Moms in general don't get enough credit. But SAHM's are a special select! More on that later. But yes, you can accomplish anything... when you have someone or something that you would do anything for, something to look forward too, or one that you care about emencly, you'll do anything for it... even if in the long run it doesn't end up being much... the effort was made, and the point and message is clear.

Okay, now that I have that taken care of, this is crazy you guys! Such a wonderful set of posts for me and MTM&K. You guys are the best! Thanks so much! I couldn't even begin to thank you guys for all the support! here's what's going on with me on two different fronts:

Weight loss: Where to begin? Last time I updated, I had reached 221.5 i think. Well...I'm now at a thinner 219.5!!! I have passed the Halfway point! w00t! It's a really surreal and amazing feeling to be honest! I'm just so happy! things are still fitting better, I'm feeling more agile, I'm just all around feeling better about my weight. I've hit the 2teens! I'm so excited!

Home front: MTM&K continues to feel terrible, and I feel bad for her. What I was talking about earlier to Felici. Stay at home moms deserve daily awards! This experience of having my wife sick has shown me just what she goes through on a daily basis...and not just for the little bit of time that I do it...she does it 24/7. I mean... As a husband, it's my duty to take care of my wife and kids... But I like to take that a bit further, I want to nurture and comfort my family, care after them. I would do anything for them...give my own life. And with MTM&K being sick, it makes me realize that I need to step up my game! I want her to know that there's NOTHING I wouldn't do for her. She's everything to me. And I don't want anyone to think that she's a burden to me or anything like that... I've never been classified as a "leader", but I am trying to lead by example with the Male Species (we're not just a "sex"...we're a WHOLE entire different species...trust me on this.. HA). Any man that doesn't take care of his sick wife.. is a fool. In sickness and in health was the vow I took... besides...who could resist a sexy woman like my wife? Anyway, I've blithered on enough. I'm sorry that I haven't been around much, work has increased, and my time at night is spent playing (I love this song...and the video too). There's so many diary's I want to pop into...just haven't had a chance too...I promise I'll eventually get to you guys! But until then, I am, and always will be... Saint
