Before After

FRIDAY!?!?

I am back to part time...YAY!  I know it's only temporary and I will be full time again but until then...YAY!

Okay, so I went running this morning and weighed in after.  I lost.  I am happy.  This is what my body does...I get to a weight and I stay there for about 30 days and then I lose...I am learning how my body does this and you know, thats okay.

My gym added more spinning classes so I am pretty excited that I'll be able to work out every day if I want...I like that I have a flexible schedule and can change up my exercise routine if I like.

Well thats all for Friday.  Sorry if I am boring to read. 

 

Maybe

My weight loss has dramatically slowed down.  The past 30 days have been all about gaining and losing the same 3lbs.  I am determined to keep them off and stay out of the 160's for good, now.  I promise myself I will stay out of the 160's, yes. thats it.

My hair is still falling out and I am not drying it, not flat ironing it, just letting it go lion wild.  Thats what it does too...damn humidity plus curls.  I also washed my husbands cell phone last night, since this is about the 4th cell phone we've lost or had stolen I was really beyond mad at myself.

I don't have anything to write about weight loss so maybe tomorrow.  I just know that I would like to lose 1 more lb this week and maybe it my first goal of 158 by the Ricky Martin concert....(thats Friday night)  - and I am really, really excited.

Depressed!

Despite a lot of effort from myself I gained .2 lbs.  UGH.  Talk about frustrating.  Those chips ahoy in the store now look very appetizing!

Hot Weekend

Summer doesn't seem to be winding down too much here and it's been one of the hottest weekends yet!

I still did a 6 mile run on Friday night, 4 miles on Saturday and I just got back from my 6mile run tonight.  I was dripping sweat but I feel really good and am a little excited to weigh in this week.  Maybe we'll see a little drop.

I know that in order for myself  to lose the weight I have to journal everything I put in my mouth.  Thats been my key to weight loss and when I fail to journal I fail to lose weight...

Tomorrow is Monday my journal is in my work bag and this is going to be a great weekd.  I hope that we get our car back from the body shop. I am really tired of the stinky taxi's...

My Hair!!!

At first I wasn't nervous because I know that you lose somewhere from 75 - 100 strands of hair a day but ladies my hair is falling out so fast.  I am not getting clumps of hair but when I wash my hair I can pull out 15 strands and when I put my shirt on another 15 strands and this has never happened ...I am pulling hair off my clothes all day long and now I am getter really stressed out about it!

HELP!

 

Surfing

This long weekend I finally braved the cold atlantic ocean and tried surfing.  Can I just say that I can barely raise my arms above my head right now?  They are so sore!

I loved it so I plan on trying to surf a few more times before winter.  Plus, it's a great weekend workout.  Now if those dolphins would quit pretending to be sharks I'd be much happier!

Saturday's Calorie Burn

How many calories do you burn after bathing 3 labradors?  I hope a lot because I am exhausted!

Sleepy, very sleepy.

I feel very drained of energy today.  Well thats not really true, my eyes are just very tired of staring at a computer and thats making me sleepy.

Yesterday I ran against the wind for three miles.  Boy, I really felt like dying but when I turned around I had the best run of my ilfe.  I have a love/hate relationship with the wind. 

Tonight is spinning and I am not so excited but I'll go and it'll be great.  Right?

Boy, I really hate Valentines day.  Really, really hate it. 

(oh, and if you're wondering why I hate it, I don't really have a reason,  I just do.)

New 'stuff'

I bought a new watch yesterday and I really like it.  It's fun, yet still reminds me how long a day really is sometimes.  Ha- ha.

Well yesterday I ran in my new running shoes and shorts.  I loved the shoes but the shorts were less than desireable.  They rode up my crotch and I hate that.  Shorts were never good for me anyhow.  I was a bit disappointed though because it was my goal outfit and it's not what I imagined. 

Somethings been irritating me for awhile now.  Some co-workers keep asking me how many lbs I've lost.  They want the number.  I've been pretty coy at saying "thank you for noticing" and walking away but they aske everytime they see me.  One guy asked my hubby if I had liposuction because if I had had it then he could talk his wife into getting it.  Yes, he really said that.  I was astonished to say the least.

Ehh, whatever.

Today is Monday, ehh, I just want to be home.  I am not tired, just not in a great mood.   What will I do to make the time go by quickly?  Send me some ideas...please.

Yesterday my husband and I set out for a 7 mile run.  He's a lot faster than I am and I told him that I didn't want him annoying me and pushing me and that if he wanted to go faster than all he needed to do was wave goodbye.  No hurt feelings.  Well he never left me and I thought I was running super slow and again, ehhh, whatever.  I just wanted to clear my head and go easy.  Well we got home and he logged our run off his Foreman watch and we were running 8:06 miles.  Thats fantastic for me.  That made my night.

I didn't weigh myself today because I am trying to stick to my Wednesday weigh in days.  I am fighting myself on this as well, I just don't want that number to dictate my mood for the day. 

Ah, well, thats all.  Happy Monday.
