Umbra's Journal

Aww thanks, my birthday is actually Tuesday but the party is this weekend.
I'm definitely working out but it won't be quiet. I like to play dance dance revolution and so do my friends. it's fun cardio to good music. The only issues is that only one person can play at a time unless we get a second dance pad.

*Holds up her dumbell like a trophy* progress has been made and progress shall continue ^-^

happy birthday on tuesday!!!

i love dance pads but have the same problem. am considering getting another one but they are so darn expensive especially for students ;)

have a great day

Heheh I live 10 mins from a place where I can get decent pads for $20 so it's no huge hardship for me. Mostly we don't have room for a second pad and even if I bought one my finance and I tend to exercise at different times.

The party has begun, we have donuts and takeout and everything I should not be eating. I still had a healthy breakfast though and got in a half hour workout so far. Giving the others a turn before i play some more ddr.

dinner tonight is pizza. I'm limiting myself to oh say four slices ( small squares) and one piece of birthday cake.

Then later tonight I'm going for a walk with my friends to the mall ( buying no treats) so i think tonight I should break even. even if not i know that even on my birthday i made an effort to remain healthy.
 
Happy birthday weekend!
Hey sometimes you have to let yourself indulge, it is your birthday party after all! As long as you don't beat yourself up about it and you get back on the wagon after all is said and done!
I read your comment about water being your secret weapon... Mine too!
Just drink lots of water tomorrow too, not only will it help you because you might be a little dehydrated from having drinks, but it will also help to flush all the crap that you ate out!
Have a great time!:party:
 
:)Hey CHicky - Thanx for dropping by my diary...Im usually more focused than I have been lately - life has been kicking me in the ass a bit and I am just takin a tiny break - starting on MOnday Im back into the swing of things and I wanna be ready for the challenege.

No worries letting you join us - I was actually thinking about it and hould have just put you with us from the beginning...Tammy (Niapage) is super cool and a weight loss machine...Im an exercise machine...lol...hopefully we will all balance out...Bikini does great challeneges...

Dont worry about your party weekend:)we all need to indulge from time to time and enjoy yourselfs...drinking lots of water is key and yes I guess a secret weapon:)

You should always forgive yourself for having fun at your bday party ..lol That wagon will be waiting ...

Never feel guilty .. only pick up yourself and move on to the next minute and the next meal will be different ...

Happy Birthday hun!! I hope you had fun!!

always

*curls in thread* No guilt, a very full stomach but no guilt. Strawberry shortcake cake and pizza = happy birthday to me. Still having fun planning DDR. Eru keeps unlocking cool songs and playing with reversed arrows and stuff and we're all taking turns.

there's cupcakes in the works for tommorrow but i'm only having one.

thanks for all the birthday wishes

Edit:

Cinderelly I have no ideas for a name but I'll put my best food forward for our team.

hey i think i'm a likle late but happy birthday anyway!

you are so lucky to get teh pads that cheap. that is about £15 - the pads here cost nearly double that. i might have to look on the internet for some cheap deals ;)

Hey there - glad you ahd a great Bday :) You totally deserve it!!!

What do you think abt the name - The Exercising Bunnies ???
 
aww angel that sucks, expensive DDr equipment is a pain. although I'd pay the $200 for the sexy ignition pads. Those things are impossible to destroy.

speaking od DDR, I have unlocked 5 new songs that leave me dripping sweat when I'm done them alone. it looks like my DDR session will be getting shorter agin but will be much more instensive while i work on mastering those songs.

Cinderelly i love the name, I used to raise rabbits for show so i know just how much those buggers can move when they want to.

Hey Lady,
Nice job on your DDR .. your rocking it! Awesome!
I have been jumping jazzy everywhere around the house myself ...
I am finding aerobics to be fun again. But I haven't been out for a couple days. I probably will go walking during the storm. I seem to enjoy walking in the storms rather than with out them.. its all good ..its so much fun walking after a storm or during a storm ..the sidewalks are filling with snow ..it can be treacherous, but exhilerating ..

well ttylater hun
you got me back into my aerobics bug lol you did! I thought about what you said ..the fact is there is going to be really cold days ..so thus ..getting aerobics back into the jive would be good ..

thanks hun

Awesome and ironic and cool:)Thanx for your touching post in my diary...:hug2:Tam (niapage) is really cool also Im looking forward to our team:)
 
Lol Nat I am the aerobics bug right now. I think i need to squeeze in 20 mins or so before bed or I'm gonna jump out of my skin. have fun with your outside walks. you won't catch me outside till spring comes for real.

Angel I use supernova 2 as my game of choice ^-^ though extreme2 is my fav game.

Padwise I'm borrowing a friends madcatz one right now becuase she left it here and I'm too lazy to plug my own in.

cinderelly, I'll try and pop by your journal every few days, you have such an interesting if stressfull life.

Our team shall be victorious
 
i'll have to check those games out! i've got dance fest and some street thing! but i am getting a bit bored of them now!

have a good day

Generally parents should go out of their way not to ruin your birthday. Way to effing go dad, i was doing great until you called. when i want lectures on sexual orientation and joblessesness i will ask, otherwise stfu ok. also way to give me soem information to alte to do anythign about it today . just fuck ok leave me alone.

yes I am upset, yes i am eating, yes i will be working out tonight ( during the always awesome biggest loser) No i don't expect to lose any weight from last wednesday untill tommorow between my birthday and this. Yes this pisses me off and yes that's why I'm still eating.

gods damn it all.
 
Hi Umbra
Sorry your conversation with your father was upsetting. Doubtless he loves you more than words can say, and obviously has not fully accepted the way things are. He hasn't given up on you, so don't give up on him. ((HUGS))

When are you going to install a free ticker so i can see your progress more easily?

Keep up the great work outs!!!

cheers
ABBA

*hugs you, your sexual orientation, and your joblessness* Sorry you're having such a rough patch. Do what you need to with the emotional eating, just don't let it make you feel even worse (and therefore prolong itself). You're reacting to something in a way that makes you feel better. Let yourself feel better and then stop.

i have a ticker .. maybe it just shows up for me anywho after this morning measurements I have lost 8.8 pounds in the last month and 1 week. I am not thrilled with that .8 as it's this weeks weigh in but i'm going to have to deal with it.

Jw372 : aww thanks *hugs* i'm good now back on track and provided my father doesn't call again for a few days i should make a full recovery. gonna do some extra ddr today to make up for yesterday.
 
ddr'd again today nice and long. i was drippign sweat by the end and i haven't done that in a long while. I think I'm all back on track again and this week should be awesome.

tryign to decide beween dancing for the amazing race detour or cabbage. probably gonna have to settle for cabbage. yeah for a smelly house not.
 
hey hope you are feeling better and hope the ddr helped!

i'm going for the dance i think--can't stand cabbage so my excercise this week is probably going to consist of hours of practicing the dance until i get it perfect lol.

have a good day
