"Vacation all I ever wanted".......

You know the song and no i'm not going anywhere :( I'm off until the 26th WooHoo!!! We were planning on going to Florida until Mike's tires went flat, laptop broke and then our Tv installation. Seriously though I don't have that vacation stress and i'm glad we're staying home. That is why I love to cruise. There is always a gym and healthy food for me to choose. I may be pathetic but that is just the way I am.

I got my $40 worth of pills in the mail today. Oh and my $80 of creatine and protein powders last week. No one said getting buff was cheap HA! I'm starting to get use to my chub now. It's not the same chub look as I had Jan 1st. Since i'm on vacation i'll take some pics, after I spray tan my white a$$.

I just need to remember my new mantra: I'm eating to GROW and FUEL my workouts. Mmmm....just finished my Met-rx MRP Yumbles :)

I told Tony today that I haven't done any extra cardio yet this week. I told him I would get some in since i'm on vacation. So my workout for tomorrow are a few abs and 30 mins ending cardio. He said to get some extra in and that is an order LOL!!

Mike has school tonight so I'll probably clean, or I could get on the treadmill. HA! I'm going to clean. Mike and I are looking at a new living room suit and it's dark brown leather and they are sofa recliners. Oh goodness we will veg all weekend if we got that.

RAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!

Congrats Keisha!

Keisha placed 2nd at her first NPC show! It feels good to know I got beat by someone that can go and almost win NPC LOL! I didn't get to see her on stage but spoke with her Saturday and she said she had leaned down some for this show. I can't wait until they post pics.

My friend Jodi and I went to the prejudging yesterday afternoon. All I can say is WOW!!! Those girls had it going on!!! I was in awe of Elaine Goodland although I don't think she placed that well but she is just beautiful.

Our goal was to see Jenny Lynn but I think she was only at the booth during the evening show so we missed her:( I carry this girls pic in my purse though and I snagged a photo of her! Miss Julie Lohre

My camera sucks taking pics at shows so they didn't turn out that great. You can tell how blinged up the suits are though.

Tony put me back on my bulking diet UGH! Yesterday I got a pumpkin spice nonfat iced latte mmmm......My eating was junk yesterday. I took a pack of tuna and a protein bar and that's all I had until I got home and ran to Arby's and got a Martha's vineyard salad. I'll make up for it today though.

All the beautiful Pros yesterday

I love oats!

Mmmmm.....I'm eating my oats YIPPEE!!

I am going to the in-laws this year for Thanksgiving and think i'll be making macaroni and cheese. I've never made it before so this will be interesting. The pigs I work with are having a pitch in next Friday so I may experiment on them. I try to educate them about nutrition but I think i'm wasting my breath. One of them grabbed a cinnamon roll yesterday and told the other these only have 4g of fat. So I butted in and said how many carbs and sugars do they have? She looked at me like ummm....I said fat is not the only thing you look at. I feel sorry for them because that is the exact way I use to be. Now I don't have to read labels because everything I eat is healthy obviosuly but you would feel sorry for me going down the grocery aisle. I think I have some sort of reading labels disease because I have to look at everything and try and memorize the cals/carb/ and fat content???? I never said I was a sane person.

I did my early cardio again this morning. I think i'll stick with it on Monday, Wednesday and Thursday and stay active on the weekends walking my dog and stuff. Sounds like a plan to me and Tony thought it was great too!!

Finishing my tea and then it's off to work BOO!!!

The Lettuce Post :)

Before you all get worried about me freaking out about eating the lettuce I better post something about it LOL!!

What I meant is that whenever Tony gives me a new meal plan I like to follow it to a "T". I use the exact measurements etc....and lettuce was not on this meal plan. So don't get worried about me :)

I hope everyone has a great week!!

Up and at 'em

I'm up and got my early cardio out of the way!! I'm eating my egg whites and realized I forgot to put splenda on them. They actually don't taste that bad.

If any of you are Colts fans you can blame my hubby for them losing. He has been on a bad luck streak poor guy. First one of his tire blew on him and he has a BMW so those things aren't cheap, second our laptop dies, third he backed my car into something and fourth he closed the garage door on my car HA! Luckily my little car is like me and takes a beating and keeps on kicking. You can't really tell anything happened to it but I can so he'll be getting it fixed soon. So when he went to the game yesterday I told him they would lose because he is bad luck. I shouldn't be so hard on him but he'd say the same about me. He thought I would be a lot madder at him after the garage door incident but I told him those are just computers and cars who cares. Actually I care but when you look at it that way it sounds better. I just went and enjoyed tea with my 81 year old grandma and one of grandpas just turned 96. Go bang my car all you want in another 10 years I won't remember that thing. (okay maybe I will because I love it so much)

Hi everyone! I am doing fine. I have to get back in the swing of early cardio again or else i'll be over 120 soon! I did it last Monday but when Tony told me I may be doing to much I haven't done it since. I've also been really tired and think i'm fighting off whatever is going around at work. I've been no carbing it since Wednesday and have to say I feel much better. I don't know if i've lost any weight and I don't care I just feel better.

I did break the rules yesterday though. My mom, aunt, grandma and I went to the Tearoom again yesterday and had a blast! I had the same thing I had last time but didn't get the craisins, apples, or cheese or it so it was just lettuce and chicken :) I know bad for eating lettuce but oh well. I passed on the huge slice of chocolate cake that my mom got. The weird thing is I didn't even want it. I know no carb isn't a great diet and can't be followed long without bad consequences but i really do enjoy the no cravings that come with it.

Mike is off to the Colt's game. He decided not to sell the tickets darnit. They were going for $550 a piece!!!

I'm getting ready to go see my mommy. I'm chugging my airborne right now because she is sick :( I took a pic of my rump yesterday. ICKY! I'm getting rolls. They'll be gone soon though i'm not worried.

10 months of progress

Below are my weigh ins for the the year so you can see where I started and where I am right now. I think i'll be weighing in sometime next week too after this 7 day diet. I must confess that Tony meals didn't say 3 oz of tuna, 1/4 tsp of flax oil, and an Almond Joy but hey it happened.

I'll take some pics soon. I can tell I am getting more muscle but on top of that there is more fat too with sucks.

I received mine and Angela's Arnold tickets in the mail yesterday YIPPEE!!
