The Road to Change...

Thanks Kdel! :D

Hi CFL (dang thats getting old..lol I feel like I know you better than that, what is your real first name???) Mine's Amy - nice to meet you..lol

lol, it's Jennifer :) I wanted to be sort of incognito but whatever, I'm exposing my weight and measurements and goals and failures... I might as well expose all myself.


Anyway, ugh... I feel sick. Got a head cold or allergies. Keep sneezing and my nose is running, and I feel weak. Ughness.

I'm gonna rest and maybe exercise later. Take some medicine and just chill.

Hope everyone has a good night.
 
Ok I did it and I tagged...be gone soon, dari, hillbilly, change for life and patty...*UGH* I gotta get to work, can you help stread the word to these guys abt beign tagged ??? ...you already got her...how abt Mal, has she been tagged, I tag you mal

You have been tagged...by 2LA! This is a game that wishes made up, so now you have to share 5 facts about yourself and tag five other people. Have fun!:D
 
Hey guys, thanks for dropping in. Oooh, looks like I got tagged. ok.

So, I'm still sick and I haven't exercised in 4 days!!!! I just don't feel like it. I walk a short distance and get extremely short of breath. I think I might have to go to the doctor, I got some sort of bug I think. Ugh...

But at least I haven't gained any weight or anything, in fact I think I lost a pound or something out of sheer luck.

5 Random Facts about Me...

1. I listen to Fiona Apple when I'm sick. The only time I listen to Fiona Apple is when I'm sick.
2. I don't like tea. Yuck.
3. I've always and will always have a big butt.
4. I believe that in a past life :)p) my head was either cut off, or I was hanged, because I have a strange fear of my head snapping or coming off. I know, I'm weird. The scene in one of The Omen movies (can't remember which one at the mo) where that guy gets his head chopped off always scares the hell out of me.
5. I think the sexiest thing on a man is either his back, arms or hands.
 
I can totally relate to #4, I have this massive fear of burning to death in a fire. I used to have nightmares & pain attacks about it as a kid.

& #5, I could fall in lust with a guy based on his hands alone.

Thanks for sharing J!! :D:D
And hope you feel better, don't wait till you're dog sick!! Go see a doctor girly!!
 
Tatties drive me nuts...they are so sexy on a man...my fear is someone breaking in, or someone following me and attacking me or raping me...can you guess what shows I like ??? LOL
 
Hahaa.
Thanks guys!...

Ok so... I feel better today, lots better. Thanksgiving was okay, I was still a bit sick so I didn't enjoy it the way I should have. But it was good. I ate a piece of pumpkin pie and had banana pudding and I think a little too much of my mom's YUMMY stuffing, its so delicious.

Took my dog to training class today, he graduated. lol. My dog is gross as hell though, DURING his graduation walk he peed on my FOOT! EWWW!! And pooped a bit later! So embarrassing. lol. But he passed all his requirements so the teacher let him graduate. He was so funny in his graduation cap and had his little certificate.

I keep stepping on the scale, I haven't been exercising much at all, but it looks like I'm down to 286. But that was on my unreliable scale, but I think I have dropped something. I was very surprised to see that I lost that much weight by doing nothing except eat and rest.

Curves isn't open until Monday I'll weigh myself then for something more accurate.

That's about it for me right now. I stayed up until 4 am last night!!! And I woke up at 10 am, so I'm a bit tired. I should go rest or something.

Have a good weekend everyone, take care and your water!!
 
Happy Thanksgiving!!

Thanks, hope yours went well!!

my fear is someone breaking in, or someone following me and attacking me or raping me..
Oooh, thats scary!!! I have that fear too, I guess most women do. :(

But I also have had certain fantasies about it too in certain situations... but I guess that's another discussion.:p;)

I can totally relate to #4, I have this massive fear of burning to death in a fire. I used to have nightmares & pain attacks about it as a kid.

Scary!!! Horrible fear. :(
 
Hi,

On a previous post you were talking about going to Curves and the staff chatting and interrupting your routine.

When I get a massage, I like quiet. What I do is I just tell the masseuse that I do "imaging" in my mind that helps me relax and let go of my worries,a and that I am usually quiet, and that my being quiet is normal. It is really difficult for me to ask for things I need but I am learning a little bit.

What I might do, (if I had the courage), is to talk with each staff member, before the work out, and just let her know about an "article" that I read, that talks about focusing on the work out and the increased calorie reduction when focusing intently. That I love chatting with them, but sometime get in a "groove" and focus on the work out and keep mentally focused. I'm sure they have been told that before.

Then, to keep things fun and comfortable, I would greet each person warmly on the way in and the way out each time.

I too don't like to be interrupted or chatted to when I work out. I used to wear my walkman in the gym, while at the gym, and to my car. I like to feel invisible. :)

Anyway,,,,it is easy for me to give advice, I hope you don't mind my telling how I might handle it.

Good luck! Keep up the good work.
 
Marilyn, I don't mind the advice at all! I craveeee advice. :)

You have some good points about talking to the staff. I do greet them on the way in and out and sometimes have convos with them. I feel a little awkward though telling them that I want to be left alone, I feel like I'll offend them or something, even though I know they should understand. The girls that kept bothering me were sort of new, and I think they were just trying to get to know people, but its very irksome. If they keep doing it, I'm gonna have to say something, it definitely gets in the way of my exercising.

Thanks so much for your advice!! :)
