Oh how the mighty have fallen ...

Thursday, November 1, 2007 22:09:15

And let me tell you ... I have fallen right off that healthy food and exercise cart so far that I'm lying in a ditch of chocolate pudding and full fat cream cheese at the side of the road.

The worst part of it all (besides that fact that all my clothes are sooooo damn uncomfortable and I look like a mini version of the michelin man stuffed in jeans and a fancy top) is that I feel extremely unhealthy and like a huge sloth!! I feel every single year of my 43 years of age and then some.

Usually my be fit and healthy exercise New Years resolve runs its course from January 3rd to about March .. maybe April if I'm really motivated and then it fizzles ... this will be the year it DOES NOT. 2009 will be the year of health for me.

I sound like a broken record. Someone's got to fix that .. and the only person to do so is me.

January 3 is my start date.

ARRGGGHH!

Wednesday, December 5, 2007 00:01:09

I have been totally missing in action but I'm back.

My best friend is going through a personal/emotional crisis soooo being the good friend I am I jumped in with both feet "helped" by emotional eating right along side of her I've had freaking MacDonalds for 3 days in a row!!!!!!!

Enough of this shit .. I'm back on track .. this rest of this week I will get back to YOU on a Diet and eat healthy once again because (1) I've gained some weight back and (2) I feel shitty when I eat shitty!!! Next week I'm back to C25K.

Man I hope you guys are all doing well .. I miss the support and I miss feeling great!!!!

penis. yes I said penis.

Sunday, December 2, 2007 21:01:23

Yes .. and the game continues .. I will throw out PENIS in the title of my post everyone once in awhile and see who it reels in .. did it get you? If it did you HAVE to comment .. it's A RULE!! LOL

How'd you guys do today? Me? Not so good .. it seems the days that I do not have breakfast I tend to eat like a trucker so another new rule in my life ... BREAKFAST IS A MUST.

C25K is back on tommorrow .. back to week 1 seeing as I missed 2 weeks so that threw me off . .. anyone up for the challenge???

And lastly ... where oh where is my friend skmama? She seems to have fallen of the face of my ep/email world and I miss her ... I think she needs a kick in the pants and some major encouragement so if you have a moment we need to stop on over at her blog and give her a big "WHERE YOU AT GIRL?" and "YOU CAN DO IT!!" www.extrapounds.com/blog/skmama/

Fessing Up

Sunday, December 2, 2007 21:00:08

Beware .. REALLY REALLY LONG POST

I've been avoiding you all because I need to fess up and I've been having a hard time on how to word it to maybe give you my side of things before you make a judgement.

I'm STILL on my healthy journey but it's taking a new twist - one that will make me much happier in the end.

Quite a while ago I made a post something along the lines of "weight vs. shape" and this is what we are going to talk about. For the longest time I have been very unhappy with my body SHAPE .. what I weigh is irrelevant to me but I have ALWAYS assumed that "when I hit that magic number" I will be good to go ... as you can see from my pics my weight at 139 is NOT really that overweight (possibly 15 pounds according to the charts but seriously I am quite muscular so I'm NOT huge) .. my arms and my legs are normal looking but because I went into menopause at such an early age (25!!) all the weight I ever gain goes to my stomach area and not any where else so I end up looking like a marshmellow with twigs poking out of it .. when I lose weight it initally (the first bit - unually until I reach about 137 or so) comes off my stomach area and then it moves to arms/legs/face only AND I just become more disproportiate looking because I get super skinny everwhere else and the stomach area remains big and my face begins to age quite terribly because I become drawn looking and sunken soooo (my godness you guys still with me?) I have made the decision that I want lipo on my abs to correct it. My husband is completely on board and supportive and went with me to the appointment and I am a good candidate because I never physically had kids so my elasticity is good etc etc. Now some of you are probably shocked .. I am too but this is not about stopping exercise and it's not about not eating healthy it's about SHAPE and contour and I am sick to death of looking like the Michelin man.

I will still be here .. I will still continue a healthy lfestyle and eating YOU ON A DIET because it IS a lifestyle.. I will exercise .. this is not about weight reduction or being the skinny chick because even with some of it gone off my stomach I will not be a skinny chick . I will just look normal and average which is what I am looking for ... I don't want to look like I'm 23 or act like I'm 23 .. I just want to look like a good 43 (which I am). I've spent my whole life trying to cover up this stomach and I'm sick of it.

So there's the long and fat of it .... I know alot of you are not going to agree with my decision and it's all good .. please note ALL comments welcome .. good bad indifferent.

ps. I'm going to add some pics so you can see what I mean about body shape

Cadbury Mini Eggs & Penis

Sunday, December 2, 2007 23:08:23

I seriously need to speak to the inventor of the Cadbury Mini Egg .. what kind of sick demented f'ing freak would deliberately make these desireable little morsels of chocolately heaven balls and then have the freakin' nerve to put them up for sale for desperate housewives such as myself??? Do they know what they have done???

I WANT HIS EASTER EGGS ON A PLATTER NOW!!! If I see the Easter Bunny at this point I'm liable to strangle him!!!

The last couple of days I've been missing in action!! My life surrounded me and SUCKED ME IN!! Tommorrow my ass is back on the treadmill (I haven't even exercised!!) and I will be completing my C25K on Wed/ Friday and Sunday this week. Food wise I have been OK .. not fantastic just OK .. I have YET to give into the temptation of the Cadbury Mini Egg which is damn good :)

As for the penis .. I'm just putting it in all my post titles from now on .. cause it's fun LOL

Pizza, Popcorn, Penis, Pez

Sunday, December 2, 2007 23:04:22

Alec, I'll take things that start with P that pissed me off today for $200.00!!

Went to Pizza hut - ate pizza

Went to the movies - ate popcorn & pez

Went home - wanted to roundhouse kick my husband right in the penis** (not for any particular reason except he annoys me sometimes and did so this morning.. I think I better go to the doctor and have my hormone pills checked what do you think? LOL)

As you can tell my food day has not been outstanding today .. for some reason I just couldn't get my shit together .. oh well what's done is done .. even the Biggest Losers get a cheat day every week so I'm counting today as mine and getting back to the grind tommorrow :)

How's everyone else doing?? Two more days till the kids go back to school .. .YAY!! hehe

** DISCLAIMER ** no actual penii were harmed in the making of this post .. or during my day at all

Does anyone watch this show? HOLY CRAP I love it!! Did you see that chick that came back (Ali) .. she lost more weight and looks better than the woman who stayed on campus .. how is that even possible? The women who stay on campus work out like 6 freakin' hours a day!! What is up with that? I'd like to have Jillian or Bob riding my ass in a workout a week that's for sure!

HOLY CRAP ALI GREAT JOB!!
