Good morning

Hi Everyone.  Well last week is now behind me and I am a woman on a mission.  I am going to work out at least an hour a day this week.  I must, I must.  My computer is in and out, mostly out so you may only see me at work until I get something figured out….and I wont be at work most of this week.  Has anyone tried the new Billy Blanks Amped?  I love it!!!….I hope everyone is having a good week!

A turnaround….

So after my mood yesterday…still nothing exciting going on….I have made a decision.  I have made myself a list of a certain number of things that I want to get done daily…such as water consumption, diet soda consumption, exercise and the like and each day, I will evaluate and if i did a good job of completing these things then….I will put $1 in my savings account for a shopping trip at a later day.  I would rather pay this money to myself than someone else.  One of the things is not to weigh daily.  I am only going to weigh on my weekly weigh in for the team challenges….

and on the other side of the coin…no one stole anything off my desk it fell off between the two cubicles…..

well…another day

I hope all is going well with all of my buddies.  I have been in a mood lately and I want to apologize to all of you because I have not been on that much this week.  This just happens with me.  I screwed up my cycle because I decided (with me being a dr and all)  to take a break from my pill (no I am not trying)  but now the regularity of it all is gone and I am frustrated and concerned this could be an underlying health issue.  I have been on regularly since I had a cyst the size of a cantaloupe about 7 years ago..I guess my hormones are just getting on track.  .so anyway….just wanted to wish you all well…and apologize…..

random rant:  I hate it when coworkers mess with your stuff.  I went to a career fair on Tuesday to Texas A&M where I got my degree.  Of course they are rivals of the school I now work for UT….well…I got a cool “AGGIES” that one of the companies made from styrofoam….I thought it was cool and put it on my desk and someone removed it.  I am SOO mad.  I don’t go screwing with the stuff on other peoples desk or your UT diploma sitting on your desk…anyway just a little peeved…I think I know who did it and I am not giving her the satisfaction of knowing how pissed I am or even that I noticed.  This is not the first time she has done something.  One day I caught her looking through my journal/calendar…which is NONE of her business ….sorry about the rant…

everyone have an awesome day…congratulations debbie :)

I am…

I am in kind of a phunk today….I think it is probably the cold and rainy weather.  I have been working all week and things were going down and then all of a sudden this morning…up 2 pounds…I know I should not weight as much as I do, it could be anything…but it is still discouraging.  I hope my scale was just being crazy this morning.  not to mention my stupid allergies too…okay enough whining all of my buddies. …have an awesome weekend.

weight loss and self image…..

You know when you are losing weight and someone tells you “wow you look awesome” and you still think “no i dont”…and your mind (self image) has to catch up with the weight loss on your body?  I am having the reverse of this happen.  A couple of years ago I was at 175 and everyone was like wow, great, awesome and I thought where did I lose the weight?  I don’t see it…well as the weight have come back on (about 50 pounds)…I haven’t felt fat..until the last couple of days.  My skinny mind has caught up with my body now and I just feel FAT!…I haven’t felt that way in a very long time and I don’t like it.  So maybe this will be the kick in the butt I need…just wanted to share that phenomenon works in reverse, I had never noticed it before.!  have a good day buddies

kickin it old skool

I just bought the original richard simmons, sweating to the oldies!!!…i used to love this work out…it isnt hard but it gets you moving and he just makes me laugh my a$$ off….hope everyone is having a good weekend.

A time for change…..

Well, She-ra is gone but she is still in my back pocket.  I get bored with the same picture after a while.  The current pick is somewhere in the middle of my weight gain…not at my smallest and not at my biggest. 

Hot Like Me

Okay…I thought that was funny.  Found it on a friends myspace page…..

not much going on here.  will be tripping up to the hospital this weekend to see dad.  he is still in there and don’t know when he is getting out.  he is having trouble keeping food down, of course the idiot staff let him go from no food (IV) to a hamburger….of course my idiot father shouldnt have asked for one.  he knows better.  I know the poor man is hungry, but you need to go for a liquid or something that would be gentle on your stomach.  and after he got sick off that the man ordered fajitas….needless to say he is back on the IV and soft foods.  I think he had pudding this morning.  Don’t know if he kept it down….

On a weight loss note.  I am down another 2 pounds…YAY….I am on a roll, watch out!!!

Better today….and funny

well, my energy level is better today…I went on a two mile power walk with my boss at lunch and feel a little bit better.  I hope everyone is having a good day…

Need Energy

I need the energy to work out today.  I don’t know what my problem is but I feel the urge to just crash when I get home….that is NOT good.  I have been doing really well and I want to keep it up.  I hope everyone is staying OP and exercising today.  I think I might change my picture again too.  Getting kind of tired of She - ra….maybe an actual picture this time.  We will see….

Wiped out!

hi to all my buddies, i just want to say hi and sorry if I have missed out the past couple of days.  Dad is in the hospital, had surgery and recovering and I am just pooped.  I am working on little to no sleep.  My sister and I stayed with him at the ER Thursday night.  She let me come home for a few hours because I had to work on Friday (she is an angel that way)…But work wasn’t very productive. They kept him and admitted him.  He had colon cancer when I was 16 and had part of it removed, well now the scar tissue is causing blockages 18 years later.  I wanted him to go the the ER Thursday because he was vomiting and his blood sugar was high and wouldn’t come down (Type 2 diabetes).  It turns out that could have been caused by these blockages, something about leaking into the liver through something or other (mom paid attention, i just got the generalities…).  Anyway, that is the main reason they were really concerned….They were unable to do it laproscopically and apparently there were many “adhesions” to remove so the surgery went long…..It has been a LONG weekend.  I may need a rest day monday.  I think my boss will understand….I think I had a glazed look on Friday due to lack of sleep.  People kept doing my job for me.  Anyway, that is what is going on with me….I hope everyone had a good weigh in this week.  On a positive note I lost 4 pounds.  I was hoping to start a spin class tomorrow, but there is always next week for that.
