SunnyDee's Diary

I sure did.

Going swimming with Matt tonight! I'm really looking forward to it, but the cold weather is a little bit of a turn-off. Brrr... We'll see how it goes.
 
It sounds like an entertaining trip to the gym!

Hope all is going well for you and that you had a good swim :D
 
We had a great swim. However, I did have an AWFUL experience in the locker room... *shudders* I'm about to rant. Note to moms: If you have a little boy and you're bringing him into the women's change room, do some explaining about what is and isn't appropriate before you go in there! There was a mom who brought her 9-10 year old boy into the women's locker room. I have no problem with little boys going into the locker room with their Moms, but I really feel he was too old and creepy to be there. And it makes it really hard to change because generally, I don't mind if people in the change room see my goodies... but when the mom is covering herself from her child, I assume she doesn't want him seeing naked lady parts! So first off, it made it really hard to change because he was sitting on the bench right next to me. I personally don't think it's a big deal for little boys to see women changing, but he was at the age where he would be recognizing the sexual nature of women. So, I didn't wanna just strip off for fear that his mom would think I was weird of something. Anyway, his Mom went to dry her hair and he sat on a bench and WATCHED me change! I looked at him and said "Hi there." He looked away for a few seconds. Then he starts staring again, so I sternly said "Excuse me," and he looked away again. I was trying to hold my towel over my chest with my teeth as I put my bra on, but it fell to the side and my boob came out. The kid starts PULLING at himself! Not exactly "playing", but there was definite pullage! The girl next to me looked horrified. We both hightailed it outta there and found somewhere else to change. Nasty little pervert kid. If he was like 6-7, I could understand... But a 9-10 year old kid definitely knows you don't fondle yourself while staring at naked women in a public locker room. ARGH! I was thoroughly disgusted, but mostly pissed off at his mother. If you're too worried to let your kid go into the men's room by himself, you should probably also be concerned about leaving him alone in the locker area with naked women while you go dry your hair in the next room. Ugh... anyway, enough of that.
 
I weighed myself this morning and I'm at 160.2! Good for me. I've decided I'm only going to change my ticker at the end of the month from now on though, as a summary of the month's progress. I can't wait to see the 150s again. It feels like it's been a long time since I was there.
I work very part-time at an office at my university. Yesterday, I went to work and one of the girls who hasn't seen me in a few weeks said "You've lost a lot of weight haven't you?" I said it wasn't really a lot, 8 lbs last time I checked. And she said "I would have guessed about 15. Your waist looks so small!" :D I felt like a million bucks.

Food for yesterday went like this
Breakfast: Granola w/ skim milk, glass of cranberry juice
Snack: Blueberry yogurt
Lunch: Grilled chicken caesar salad
Snack: Apple
Supper: Low-fat peanut butter sandwich on whole wheat

i love comments like that:) it makes the work worth it, although i tend to get all embarrased, and blush

congrats :cool: :D
 
change room

Thats too creepy about the boy in the change room. What was up with that? Way too old. I wonder why.

Nice compliment about your waist. My last compliment the guy gestured toward my belly too and I think that must be where we're losing it from with this healthy eating.
 
Hey Girl - Nice compliment! I've only been changing my ticker once a month too!

As for the kid in the locker room, I would have said something not only to the mother but to the management. He's too old to be in there.

Congrats on your compliment too. I'm surprised when people comment about my waist because I never really had much of a tummy to begin with. But I guess now it's noticeably smaller, which is awesome. ;)

I don't get embarassed over anything, really. But my boyfriend says I'm bad at accepting compliments. He says I usually act like I think the person is lying or has an ulterior motive. Haha I think he's just full of crap. :p

I think once a month is a better indicator of progress. Your weight can fluctuate quite a bit over a few days, so I'd probably just be putting my ticker up a pound, then down a pound, etc.
I didn't think about talking to the management. I probably should have done that. I wasn't the only one who felt uncomfortable. The poor little girls in there who were around his age were all trying to hide away from him. That's a very awkward age to be seen naked by your male peers!
 
Winter is brutal on my skin. Fortunately, I just bought the best moisturizer in the world - Vaseline Problem Skin Therapy. It's unscented/hypoallergenic, which is hard to find. I can't use anything that's not hypoallergenic. My poor skin is really sensitive. My friend had a jar of this stuff and I decided to give it a shot. I loved it, so I went out and bought my own. I just thought I'd promote it, for all of you who are trying to combat the drying effects of winter.

This is not an endorsement.

I'm planning to go do TaeBo in a little while. I was thinking of taking tonight off, but I think I'm starting to get addicted to TaeBo again. I was majorly addicted this past summer. Three cheers for healthy addictions!

Breakfast: Raisin & Almond granola w/ skim milk, glass of orange juice
Snack: Nectarine
Lunch: Spinach salad w/calorie-wise Catalina dressing, 5 cod nuggets
Snack: Strawberry-banana smoothie
Supper: Sweet & sour chicken, boiled rice w/ cherry sauce, mixed veggies
 
Sick

Yuck... so sick today. :( I think I'm on the edge of having a big flare-up of my ulcerative colitis. I started feeling this coming on in class on Friday, but then it passed off until last night. I was in so much pain last night after I got in bed. I took some pills and rolled around, moaning and groaning until I fell off to sleep. I felt better when I first got up this morning, so I ate a nice big breakfast and now I'm sick all over again. Worst part is, I'm supposed to be going out for supper for my friend's birthday. The thought of eating a meal is gut-wretching. So, I'll warn well in advance that the food for the next couple of days will probably look pretty meager. :(
 
oh my goodness!!!! my bf has crohn's disease, much like ulcerative colitis! i had no idea you were suffering from that!

i hope you feel better soon!!!!
 
I'm not feeling quite as nasty now, thanks. I'm hoping I'll wake up tomorrow feeling perfectly fine. *crosses fingers*
 
Sorry to hear you aren't feeling well. Hope the pills work.

As for the sicko little boy - eek! I will never take my son into a change room. It's hard enough sometimes taking him to a ladies washroom. He's only 2, but he's chatty. He likes to ask if I have a penis, or if daddy has a penis, if we have bums.......... you get the hint. Then again, he asks those questions in the grocery store too! LOL - my son is not shy.

Feel better soon.
