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 ;)

Peanut Butter in pet treats!!

I saw this on the news this morning. Dogs and cats don't watch the news so we have to protect them!

Disclaimer

LOL! I almost put a disclaimer on my post ***this is not me. Come on guys, now if it were Stacey posting that pic maybe but it's ME posting it ;)

Erik, how did you know? Just joking :)

It is Noel Clark! WOO! She's HOT!



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

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

Workin IT!!!

I had a GREAT workout today! It started off with 25 mins of light cardio this morning. Then tonight I had shoulders and then during my ending cardio I bumped it up a bit. It felt GREAT!

I just made my husbands dinner though and I had a bite of baked beans. That's it though I just wanted the taste ;) Since i'm NOT trying to put on muscle I need to start doing some more cardio to get this fluff off. I'll rephrase that, i'm always wanting more muscle but i'm not going to eat a surplus to get it.

Tomorrow morning i'm going to do more cardio. I just love how I feel the rest of the day while doing it.

The nurse from the hospital called me today. She asked how "the healthy" patient was doing. The other nurses were jealous because they had to deal with old people LOL! I'm doing fine and i'm not uncomfortable at all anymore!

Oh yeah, during my shrugs tonight I pulled something in my neck! I had read Latgirls post to so I should have been warned but NO...I did them and now I have a kink in my neck. I think i'm going to let Tony know that I don't want to do these anymore. Let's face it, i'm never going to be She-ra so I don't think my body will miss them.

Stir Crazy

My goodness i'm going crazy! I HATE not being able to do what I want. I just want to go for a long run! At least a short walk would be nice. I'm REALLY just taking it easy this weekend. I need to heal and i'm doing better today because I rested yesterday. I just have to remind myself that this is the best thing for my body right now and i'm not going to gain 10 lbs overnight. Mike even told me today that since I NEVER rest this is what my body really needs especially right now. I know he's right so i'm really trying not to go upstairs right now and get on my treadmill grrrrr...you better believe at 4:30a tomorrow morning though i'm hopping on it :D

My work isn't going to great right now. We are REALLY slow and trying everything to cut cost including chopping heads off. Someone from my dept was let go last week. That could have been me. So far Gods plan for me is to stay there but I almost want it to be me so that I get off my butt and find a job that makes me happy. Is there such a thing?

Mom and I went and saw Bride Wars today. I give it an A! I love Kate Hudson and Anne Hathaway so that made it more enjoyable. I admit I even had some tears in my eyes :)

It's About That Time

When I was in the hospital room Thursday the nurse came in to hook my IV up. She looked at me and said oh great, it's hard to find a vein on you redheads. I've never heard that one. She looked at my arms and said which one do you want it in? I said well I have an IV scar on my right arm so put it in the left and see if I can get another. She wrapped the rubberband around my arm and was amazed at my vein :) I said I workout LOL! I was happy about the veins especially since i'm not taking supps right now.

So it's about that time that my husband will start to workout and eat better because the cruise is almost here. This time of year I get pissed because i'm constantly staying busy, eating clean and getting chubby?? Doesn't make sense. Then he just cuts out his mayonnaise and loses 10 lbs grrrr....

I'm going crazy not doing any cardio. Last night I did my back workout and it flew by since there wasn't any ending cardio segment. Today i'm going to do my bi/tri/abs and not do cardio just to heal some more. I was in the store this morning and felt like I was gonna pass out. I couldn't sleep for anything last night. I even took 2 of my pain killers because they normally make me feel all good and sleepy but nothing this time. Boomer and I just tried to take a nap and I still couldnt' sleep. Now i'm gonna go lay on the couch like a blob and eat bon bons. Just kidding, however I am gonna go lay on the couch like a blob.

Thanks Guys!

Thanks for the well wishes and prayers they worked! I'm at home and feeling fine. I have some discomfort when I pee but that's about it. Yesterday's diet was AWFUL! I had an entire box of Wheat Thins and a cup of Jello. That was on the Drs. diet ;) So today i'm back to Tony's diet and feeling MUCH better. I tried to do a bit of cardio. Just a walk on an incline and 17 mins into it I had to stop. So I better rest so I can really heal up.

With the windchill today it's -30 degrees here EEK! Guess who is out of food? No not me, that would never happen. My little girl...i'm a bad mommy :) So we're gonna go to PetSmart in a bit.

Thanks again! You guys are the best!

TOM got the best of me

Man, I hate blogging when i'm depressed but I need to remember these times. I'm not really depressed just feeling like a bloated blob and to make matters worse the surgery is tomorrow! I ate 7 peanut M&M's today, more than my ounce allowance of almonds, and work is getting so bad that they even took away the water coolers today!! I'm not going to continue on a downward spiral though, no sir! I just want to get this dang surgery over with, heal and then be gung ho!

Yesterday there was brownies, muffins and mexican food and I didn't even look at it. Okay that's a lie I looked at it and watched everyone feed their fat faces. I am so strong and times and then today I freaking ate those damn M&M's. Oh well, i'm not going to dwell on that. Tonight Mike, Mom, Sis and I are going to go eat at Applebee's :) I may see if my dad wants to come too. I'm going to eat the tilapia and double broccoli mmmm....that may be my last meal for awhile. I can't eat or drink anything after midnight and I have to be at the hospital at 5:30a. I can't wait to start taking my supplements again!!!!

I'll let you guys know how things went Sat or Sun. Thanks Jessica for your wise words on my last post :)
