Before After

Another Day, Another Dollar

Hello ladies!! Hope you all had a wonderful hump day. My week is not going to let up and doesn't look like it's going to for a while. I got some great news today. Although I know none of you would share it because you don't really know me IRL, I don't know who's reading this, so I can't share it with you all yet but I will once it comes to fruition!! Just know it's great and exciting non-weight related news! Something I've wanted for a long time is now at my finger tips. Heidi you might know what I'm talking about ;)

Anywho back to regularly scheduled blogging.

Today was off plan eating but I am not gonna beat myself up about. I logged the points, I'm within reason and it's ok to have "off" days. I'm not going to be perfect, I'm going to have perfect days everyday, but like Alicia talked about it's about what I do most of the time that matters. I had 3 too many cookies and 1 too many pieces of brownie but oh well. I don't eat like that everyday or even once every week so it's ok.

I did make it to the gym. Did 30 minutes on the Cybex machine burning an all time high of 370 calories (per the machine) then doing 10 minutes on the stair master (HOLY SMOKES! I've never done it before but I will be now, it's a great calorie burner and butt toner, LOVE IT!) burning 105 calories. Then I ended with 5 minutes on the bike burning 30 calories. Totalling 505 caloriees burned for 50 minutes. That's a new record for me!! Woo! Another NSV for me. Tomorrow is supposed to be 2 a day with the neighbor but we'll see if I make it, I have studying to do for my espanol class, blah!

Good news for the day is BF IS COMING THIS WEEKEND! Woo. Pumped about that. Haven't seen him in 2 weeks, it's well overdue. I miss him.

Today an organization I'm in volunteered at the SAAFE House and it was such a sad thing to see. This paticular house was small so they were like basically on top of each other and it's just horrible to see. The are there because someone is abusing them and then they have have live with OTHER people for safety. It just makes me feel even more blessed for what I have and what my mom could provide for me growing up. God is good and he's able so I just prayed for those women in children in there. Tonight send up an extra prayer for those less fortunate than yourself.

Ok, gotta go study now.

Weekend!

Have a great weekend with the BF!

Don't feel Bad

My day wasn't the greates yesterday either. I ate an extra muffin and some cashews when I wasn't even hungry but it tasted so good! Anyhow like you said is not an everyday habit so it can't be too bad. I did add it in my weekly points but we will see.  Did you read my extra extra long responsefrom your last post? I know you are probaly not ready to wait it out that long as far as getting on the scale backwards, Now that I think about it I don't think I'm ready either. Oh well maybe later. Have a good one.

I'm improving, I tried to keep this one short! Lol

Congrats!

On whatever it is you're excited about!  And we all have good days bad days.

Glad you get to spend some time with your BF.  Have Fun!!

 

Hey

quick note:

What is the great news? New job opp?

You be gentle with bf you hear.  I don't want you to treat him like Norbits wife.lol

You are getting such great experience.  I bet the safe house was hard. 

precious

Perfect!!

You are so right - we are all going to have non-perfect days. I'm not perfect so I know my eating won't be that way all of the time. You are doing great!! I hope you have a wonderful weekend with your boyfriend.

Oh man...

You've certainly whetted my appetite!

I wanna know the news!!  Dang it <stomp, stomp>

Have a great weekend, and keep up the great work with the exercise!

Hey there

You sound so "healthy" today. 

Am glad you like the message from Mr. Phillips.  It really is what we do MOST of the time that matters.  (thank heavens) 

Liked that cardio machine huh?   Are your legs sore today?  MAN, mine were sore yesterday.  Especially my quads, glutes, and inner thighs.   Did it take you a minute to get used to it?  It's like running and stepping all at the same time. I like it because it didn't hurt my knees.  I've seen some on the internet that have arm motion too.  Ours doesn't have that, does yours?

You really are a remarkable young lady you know that?  I think it's AWESOME that you are spending time volunteering in a safe house.  Those people need people to care and listen.  You bet I'll say some prayers. 

Well, you take care.  Hope you get the great news you are wanting, and I hope you have a great time with your bf.
