Well, well, well...

Sigh

.....

Its gonna have to be this way, isn't it?

I'm going to have to exercise. No other way around it.

I hate exercising. I like it on a whim, but I can't just go and do it all the time. Its like work thats too easy to call off from. Seriously.

The only way I am gonna be able to get back into a serious exercise routine is by going back to derby, and with my fire dancing classes. I have to enjoy it, and I am sorry, but going to a gym and mindlessly walking on a treadmill is just not going to do it for me.

I get bored way too easily.

Thank you, ADD.

So we will see where it goes from here. I was gonna wait until bout season was over to go back to my derby girls, but if I don't have to, then heck yeah.

My poor tailbone is gonna kill me in the end.

But its worth it.

Argh!

Exercise, you are a mean, mean thing. Why must you dominate my success?

Prepping ahead is not so hard. Its actually WANTING to eat what you have made that usually stands in my way. Boy, chinese food sounds great...or I can eat this fish I made two days ago thats sitting in the fridge.

Trouble is, if I DONT make it ahead of time, then I get lazy and just dont feel like cooking, therefore eating whatever is available then and now. Im sure we have all done this.

Any insight as to how to beat this would be greatly appreciated.

So far, I seem to do best while I am at work. I am on a regime, and I can eat what I brought and sidestep those vending machines full of hate. That and I avoid carrying cash around most of the time.

Its when I get home in the evening and have to cook dinner for the whole family that I fall short. I don't WANNA sit there with broiled fish and brown rice while everyone else gets tacos. But I have to. I have the problem, not them.

Again, any insight to this would help.

I've had a few setbacks but remain diligent in my effort to eat healthy and drop these remaining lbs. I had to cancel an appointment with a plastic surgeon due to the nazi's I work for changing everyones schedule and taking away my Thursdays off. I wasnt too thrilled with the office staff, anyway. I need to find one who is going to help me, not be a snot about it.

I know there are many of you out there battling the Sugar Slut. She has kicked my ass a lot lately. Truthfully, I love to trick her with SF chocolate and such, but the pain associated with sugar free candy and the result it gives you is by far worse than just eating the real thing. Most of you know what I mean...and it seems I do it every time I go to the movies. Haven't been able to sit through one movie in a few years due to my overindulgence in SF Russell Stovers during the previews...I end up running to the loo halfway through the movie, and missing stuff...and the movie theater bathroom is huge and echoey, so not the greatest place to have that problem, either.

I am currently cooking up a batch of Italian Chicken...but this time I am using my crock pot. Seeing how that works out. As some of you know this past week I lost my dear Hamilton Beach Grill with removable plates...it was my life, and I have been mourning ever since. Unfortunately a replacement is going to run me about $80, so that will hopefully be a birthday present because I certainly cannot afford it.

Everyone let me know how you are doing whether its good or bad, etc...feedback is a great thing.

Im not dead!

After a short hiatus after my trip, I am ready to balance myself out again and start feeling better. Everything went according to plan for my trip, I had the best time, and I am ready to move forward. However, which direction I go in is another story.

Any of you ever have something planned in your head for months that just works out almost exactly the way you saw it? I did. And thats all I'm saying.

Ahem.

So, back to the drawing board. I've pretty much been eating whatever, so I am ready to go back to my first love, Mr. Thurmond. I am right now off to the store to get the needed supplies to start...

so...here we go again!

And in lieu of the usual picture I post with a blog, here is an amusing bit...

http://www.bannedinhollywood.com/12-signs-you-need-to-go-on-a-diet/

Good morning, comrades. A dear friend pointed out to me that I have been slacking terribly
at my duties of blog posting, so here I am.

Things haven't been very good. We've had a nasty bout of sickness here in the family, and some crankiness as a result, making the past few weeks an almost absolute living hell.
I've pretty much stuck to what I was supposed to, although on day 1 I realized there is NO WAY I am going to be able to do protein shakes only. Huh-uh. I need solidarity. So I went and purchased some beef jerky.
I know what you're thinking, oh, SODIUM!!!
I take water pills and drink over a gallon on water a day. Jerky won't touch me, sistahs.
I've been eating a bad thing or two here or there, but haven't suffered as a result.
I have my pill martinis every day and they do me a lot of good.
*******
Getting MUY EXCITIDO to get to next weekend, when I get to leave town and go home to MD. I get to see all my girls, whom I miss SOO MUCH...get good old Irish drunk, and stagger through downtown Cumberland, just like the good ole days. SO EXCITED! I am also driving to Baltimore to pick up my girl and her puppy, whom I haven't seen in YEARS, (my friend, not her puppy) and I am SUPER CHARGED excited about that.
How is everyone doing? Comment and let me know how your few weeks have gone. Sorry I was MIA, but when you are just about ready to take off your own head, blogging is pretty much the last thing on your mind!

Love you guys!

Spending a little time on hiatus...my body, bottom line, isn't getting enough iron and protein to maintain. I ordered my favorite protein shakes online, and am waiting for them to arrive so I can start my liquid, all protein shake diet. I know this sounds nuts...but its not a permanent thing...just enough to give me a boost until I am ready for solid food again, then I shall go back to my low sodium, low carb, high(er) protein regime.

I'm there. Ive settled on the fact that the majority of my weight that is left just needs to be surgically removed...I have a lot of skin. Gross, I know...but its the truth. Researching surgeons and hopefully I will get the answers I need within the next few weeks to get the ball rolling and take care of this mess.
Until then, I am Champion Nutrition Pure Whey Stack Girl.

Hoo-ah!

Its one of those nights. I ordered pizza for the family, and I'm taking a time out to maintain my sanity and eating a piece or two. Not spending a day eating garbage, just this, right now. Im quitting smoking right now, so I just need this crappy little vice. Like my excuses?
