Sweet, that pretty much sums it up! My hubs always makes fun of my mom's accent. He says she says cold, coat, code all the same, oh and the Colt's ;) My grandma, boy she is from Kentucky and i'm talking the sticks. He still doesn't understand her and i'm not sure I even do sometimes.

I had a ho hum leg workout tonight. TOM is trying to arrive ugh....not an excuse it just is. My weight is down 2 lbs from last week though, felt thinner this morning so I had to weigh. That's even with Aunt Flo about to show! So, my next weigh in will be probably next Thursday. It's just a good weigh for me to keep in check ;)

I must, I must...

I must increase my bust! I know,I know,I know that they will grow! My cousin, sister and I use to chant this when we were little. It REALLY worked for them. I was chanting it during my chest workout tonight. I can honestly say that I have some man pecs! My hubs is jealous :) I LOVE to work chest! I can see striations and veins since I obviously don't have any fat there. I also love to work abs for that same reason!

I'm having a good day. I feel lighter and my eating and workouts have been awesome so I know something good has to be happening. My morning cardios have been THE bomb!!!

I WILL be going out this weekend for Valentine's Day. It's not a cheat, ahi tuna and steamed broccoli. I can't wait! We're also going to see Taken...I heard it's really good? I love dates!

Full Steam Ahead!

I had an AWESOME early cardio session this morning. I'm anxious to get up and do it again! Worked shoulders tonight...did shrugs but with light weights ;) I was feeling REALLY lean yesterday, today not so much. Oh well, we all have those days. I have a little less than 8 weeks before my cruise! I would love to lose 10 lbs but realistically not sure if that's possible. I think an easy to maintain and healthy weight for me would be 115. That gives me a little wiggle room :) I still haven't weighed since last Tuesday and it makes me less stressed about things. When the time comes I know I can drop the numbers but really who cares about them? I know Monica Brant doesn't weigh 107 and I would LOVE to look like her!

2 days!

I haven't weighed in 2 days :) The scale has not been my friend lately. I'm eating exactly what is written on paper. Okay, not really. I get a TBSP of almond butter but i've talked with Tony about that. I know that would not be possible. I would eat the entire jar in 1 sitting. Instead I buy individual portions of almonds and that way i'm okay.

My workouts have been AWESOME! The carido I do in the mornings are intense and just when I feel like quitting I don't...I continue, i'm a badass!

So why am I gaining weight? This is the frustrating part. Is the food I ate during Christmas just now going through my system or what? I'm trying to not let it bother me. I feel fine today since I didn't weigh this morning ;) I'm still wearing my 4's although they aren't fitting as nicely. Don't worry, my shirts are big so there is not a noticeable muffin top.

So that's my wrap up this week. The scale sucks, muscles don't!

Why am I freaking out that Mike and I are going out to eat for Valentines Day?? I really have issues. We are going to Bonefish Grill! I love fish :)

I'll leave you with this...why I keep going. I've only just begun, I will get there some day(without boobs).

In Love...

With this website. I will probably never make anything from it but it sure is fun to think about!

I got a new meal plan on Saturday. I've been on it for 2 days and i've gained weight?? I'm not gonna get discouraged though. My body was without carbs for a LONG time so it's probably thinking WTF! It had enough carbs during Thanksgiving and Christmas to last for months and months though ;)

My workouts have been awesome! It's amazing what a 15 lb weight gain does for your strength :) Now that i'm 100% healed up my cardio are kick ass again so hopefully i'll start shedding some lbs. My cruise is right around the corner YIKES!

FFF the snow!

So my morning started off getting stuck in my driveway grrr...The stupid plow that finally came at 9p at night piled snow up on it. So here comes my husband, who had to wake up, to push me out. Acting all pissy and stuff. Okay boy i've been up for an hour and a half, ran 3.3 miles, and am getting ready to drive to work the last place I wanna be. He gets to work from home...poor guy. He proceeds to push my car which isn't budging one bit. He tells me to get the F out of the car. Like him pushing the gas pedal is any different from what i'm doing?? Nothing happens. So I proceed to push the car, yep you guessed it....pushed it right into the street! So i'm crying because he cussed at me and get in my car and said he's just mad that i'm stronger than him.

He emails me from work like nothing happened. I told him he made me cry...you all know how hard that is. He said he was tired and doesn't remember it. So at lunch he came and picked me up and brought Boomer too to make my day :) Then when I get home I have these with a cute made from scratch:

He also said he is going to rub my feet for a long time tonight YIPPEE!

I'm getting a new meal plan and workout regimen from Tony! I just might have my mojo back!

Feeling Funky

So i've been on no carb for 26 days now and i've been a rockstar! Except for that Wheat Thin day but it was Drs. orders right? Yesterday I was STARVING all day long! I even tried to stay in bed just so I wouldn't eat anything! Thank goodness I don't keep crap in the house or I might have eaten it. I did resist the yummy chocolate cake at my sister's b-day party though. So I had 1/2 cup of oats last night. They were so good! I haven't had them in so long LOL! My weight is staying the same and it's getting annoying.

The Arnold is getting so close! I'm so excited! We still need to get our expo tickets and the tickets to watch the show that the other diva duo will be in :) The weekend before is inventory at work YUCK! If i'm still employed there ;) WOO!

30 Years Young!

You know you're old when your little sister is turning 30!! Happy B-day Rachel :D


I had a great time yesterday at the mall with Jodi :) Thanks for the peppermint coffee it's the BOMB!!! I didn't feel like trying on clothes since i'm fluffy so I got a hat and hair accessories instead.

Oh another reason i'm not trying on clothes is I took a 5% paycut yesterday grrr....I'm still employed though so I guess I should be thankful for that?? I'm thinking of going back to school for medical coding. Mike's mom does that and LOVES it! Plus that's a job that will always be needed no matter what the economy is going through. I went through this crap in 2000 also. Should have got out then.

My workouts have been sporadic lately in strength. Shoulder day went well, chest day ROCKED, legs pathetic, bicep same and today i'm doing triceps. I love when I don't have bi's and tri's together.

So i'm venturing off to my sister's b-day party this afternoon. I don't need to tell you all i'm not having cake...you know me by now ;)

I envisioned my shoulders looking like hers when I was working out.

Good eye Jodi, that's why you have a criminial justice degree.
