Car

The water pump went in our car this morning while the hubby was driving me to work. And if you remember the hubby and I are sharing a car right now. It bites. Big time. So, luckily the in-laws live close and we went there and were able to leave our car and hubby brought me to work (I was 15 minutes late) and then he didn't go to school and he and his Dad worked on the car all day.

But it turns out it isn't just the water pump.

I'm not sure what else it is and it totally sucks because I was all ready to go to the gym tonight. Boo!!

I hate having one car.

By the way, the blueberry muffins are much better today then they were last night.

Muffins

I made blueberry muffins from Hungry Girl last night and they are okay. This is the first time I've made something from her cookbook that I'm not totally jumping from the roof about.

I've been pretty down in the dumps these past few days. Trying to pull myself out of it. Hang in there my friends because I plan to be back.

This is supposed to be a weight loss blog right?

Flashbacks

Since I'm not really feeling the blogging thing right now here is a blast from the past from 5 years ago:

My eating I guess isn’t going as good as I thought because the scale said 157.8 pounds this morning. I don’t know. Today I’m sitting here thinking about what I can do to not think about it so much. My weight I mean.

On a happier note I ran for 61 minutes today. How did I manage that you may ask? Since I mentioned yesterday that the treadmill only goes up to 60 minutes. Well, when it stopped, I started it up again for another 25 minutes so that I was able to continue running.

So my total miles on the treadmill today was 6.82. That is the combined time though.

I have decided to start doing this: one day of weights and cardio, then one day of cardio, then one day of weights and cardio, then just cardio, etc., etc., etc. I don’t know. I just need to see if something will help my weight loss efforts.

Other then that I really don’t have much else to write about today. I’m kind of in that blah kind of mood right now, but I wanted to update.

Weigh in

Down 0.6 this week. I'll take it. Hopefully next week will be better.

I am really sore today so I hit the treadmill for an hour. I know the trainer doesn't want me to do that much cardio but the thought of doing weights today wasn't something I really wanted to do so at least I did something. Tomorrow I am planning on going to the gym for sure.

No big plans for today. Housework and getting a few things together for a yard sale my sister is having next Saturday. I hope to make a little money.

Happy Saturday!!

Quick update

September was a horrible blogging month for me. I didn't update nearly enough. October is going to be better.

Tomorrow is weigh in day. Hopefully it will be good.

Totally got slammed at work today.

Watching "The Dark Crystal" and I remember it being much better then it is when I was kid. It kind of sucks right now.

Is anyone watching "Flash Forward"? Love it!!

Work was super busy.

Wore jeans today I haven't worn in awhile. They are fitting nicely.

Haven't touched any of the Halloween candy that someone brought into work.

Made an awesome Hungry Girl recipe for dinner last night and made enough for breakfast for this morning. Yum!! It was French Toast just so you know. Hee hee. I love breakfast for dinner.

Off to read blogs!

Awesome workout

The trainer worked me pretty hard tonight. I'm going to be pretty sore tomorrow. I'm already sore right now. He has me do these things called "Mountain Climbers" and I absolutely HATE them. I feel like I'm going to throw up while I'm doing them. But you know what? When I'm done I am happy I pushed through it. We also did ab work tonight which I needed. So I had a great workout with him and then 30 minutes on the elliptical.

My gym actually my finally be moving in January to their new location after talking about it for the past 5 (almost 6) years. It's right down the street from it's current location but it's bigger and has more parking. If they DO move I will probably start going right after work since it will be across the street from my job.

My sister told me today that she has noticed I've lost weight. I had to wear a jacket this morning (it's that cold) and last year it was really tight and now? Well now it's not.

Off to watch "Grey's" and then bed. I'm going to sleep like a baby tonight for sure!!
