SaturdaySaint's Diary

Woohooo!!! Big Ol' Howdy to the wifey!! :D:D
And howdy SS!! Just wanted to pop in and see how you're dooging. Keep up the great work!! :D:D
 
I'm in a TAD bit of a funk today. Not sure why. My son woke up in the middle of the night, dreaming that there was a bug on his leg... and he needed to be changed..as did his bed. That was at 3:30 a.m. So I get back in bed about 20 minutes later and get up at 4:50 as usual. I'm happy with myself that I'm keeping the trend going... I like the fight I'm putting up. Here's the breakdown of what went on this morning:

20 minutes on the Stationary
20 minutes on the gazelle
40 Pushups (YAY...the numbers are increasing)
30 Situps (Now THATS more like it!)

Not much cramping in my stomach this morning... but while doing pushups, my arms were shaking like leaves at 39!

I had a bowl of healthy organic blueberry oatmeal and a cup of 1% milk. I have an apple with me here for a snack today, plus a chicken sandwich (done on a Pita...thanks hon!) and I'm ready for the day. I know I didn't have enough for breakfast but... we're kinda running out of food so... I'm trying to spare some for everyone that's home all day while I"m at work.

Now I'm at work and I'm worried I'm not gonna make my weight loss goal for Friday but my wife made a good point... I normally don't see my main weight loss until Sunday/Monday... so I may change my weigh in day! I want to get down to 229. I'm currently at 233.5 I know that's alot of weight in a short period.... who knows.

Another part of my funk I think is, it's getting closer to Christmas, we wanted to go to South Carolina for it (last Christmas in the states for a LONG time)... but because of finances..it may not be able to happen. Which sucks... SO much. I'm sick of not being able to do stuff with my family... get them the things that they want... ANYTHING...even small stuff! Sorry..didn't mean to get all down and bring it low...

Anyway... here's hoping the next few days brings AWESOME stuff for my weightloss, my wifes weight loss, and anything and everything else! :)
 
Sorry about your funk; I hope the exercise helped to energize you a bit and pick you up. I understand about the financial thing...being a single mom, a stay-at-home mom at that, it's a struggle to do the fun things with my kids. This fall we drove from Manitoba to BC to visit my mom; my first vacation in YEARS. The only reason we were able to is because we stayed with family the whole way. Now I'm trying to save up for a trip to Disneyland one day, but the world (ie glasses, preschool, etc.) keeps getting in the way.

Glad you got the wife to join! But now you gotta be good! ;)
 
Hey...I was ALWAYS good :p You do realize we're moving to Canada right?
Alberta to be exact!!! If you don't mind me asking, you being a single stay at home mom..what do you do for income? Just curious.. my wife is a WIZ at ebay!
 
Okay... that'll teach me to go for a walk while at work when the temp is 80 degrees! It was good 3 mile walk to the bank during lunch...but boy was I sweaty when I got back! And they keep it FREEZING in my office... I'm going to catch a cold! :mad: I'll wait to do my walks when the temp goes down outside...not so much sweating!

/I don't mind the sweat.... actually I welcome it for working out... just not good when you're going back to an office building looking like you've wrestled with an armpit monster who just took a shower! okay...that was gross...I'm sorry... I"m going to go wash my brain :eek:
 
It's 80 here in good ole Flagler County... home of multiple wild fires that shut down our county complete with the handy dandy manditory evacuation playset! (it's happened twice here....just sayin)
 
Florida is nice and all, but I need snow sometimes. :p Glad to hear you got your walk in ...even though it wasn't optimal for working conditions through the rest of the day. lol Everything will work out for you all, I'm claiming it for you.

Keep up the great work!
 
You're telling me!?!!?!? Why do you think I am dragging him back to Canada with me ;) lol....

I'm tired of hot weather all the time!

Sorry...if you ask my wife... I've NEVER been a water drinker...so I'm proud of myself!
