Not much diet talk here

I'm not sure how many of you are aware that I watch Nascar or not but OMG! Watching your driver land on the roof of his car and then on top of another driver's car is a pretty scary ordeal. Not to mention they had to have him cut out of his car, too. Luckily, Ryan Newman (my driver) was okay and walked to the ambulance after the wreck yesterday but it was so scary. It's amazing how safe these cars are these days.

Work was super busy today. We were short one CSR so that is always hectic. I took 7 orders and my coworker took 2. Hmmmm doesn't seem too fair, huh? Vacation can't get here fast enough.

I am 3 episodes behind on "Grey's" so tonight I am going to try and catch up!!

Also me and Jen Lancaster would so be BFF's if we lived in the same state! Ha! I am super excited that her new book is scheduled to come out in May of 2010. She follows me on Twitter (eek! I know right?) and I am currently rereading her books. I total think you should run out and get her first book "Bitter is the New Black" but I started with "Such A Pretty Fat". Thank me later.

Happy November

To kick off November just right I hit the gym this afternoon. I did 30 minutes of weights and 35 minutes of cardio (40 if you count my warm up). I'm feeling pretty good these days so I'm hoping that feeling continues through the week.

Little nervous about the fact we're into November and it's just 17 days until I turn 34. Eek!! I can't believe I'm going to be 34 already. When did I become an adult anyway?

I am really looking forward to my Mom coming to visit and vacation!!

Hubby and I are watching the "V" mini series on SyFy today. I loved this when I was a kid. I am looking forward to seeing the new show when it starts. Should be interesting.

Have a happy Sunday and stay away from the Halloween candy!!

Happy Halloween!!

I am so close to the 230's! OMG! My goal was to be under 240 by today but seeing 240.2 this morning totally made my day! I cannot believe it. I am down 1.8 pounds this week. I am super excited. I am hoping to push myself super hard this week so I can (hopefully) get there next Saturday.

I hit the treadmill this morning for 60 minutes I was so happy!!

Yesterday went well at work. Everyone enjoy the pasta and cupcakes. Also those cupcakes? DANGEROUS! I left them at work so I wouldn't eat them all. 2 points each but super good!

Happy Halloween everyone!!

Halloween Food!!

As always it felt great to get back to the gym.

I even did 35 minutes of cardio tonight just because. And of course my 30 minutes of weights. I'm totally going to feel it tomorrow.

We're having a Halloween party at work tomorrow (we love to party at work and any excuse to bring in food we'll do it) and right now I am making this fantastic meal I saw on Paula Deen the other day. Now, before you all get nutty and freak out, please check out the link and see I am doing the Richard Simmons version. I love me some Paula Deen but watching her cook makes my arteries clog up. Butter and cream oh my!! Plus I am making another Hungry Girl dessert-this time chocolate marshmallow cupcakes! Yum! I can eat all of this and I am so excited!!

Vacation in 3 weeks. I cannot wait. And Mom here in less then 3 weeks. Woohoo!!

Positive thoughts

If there is one thing that puts me in a decent mood is going to see my doctor. She always has such awesome and positive things to say to me. I've been a Debbie downer these past few days and seeing her helped.

Also so did my husband, my sister and a few girls at work today so I can't just say it was just the doctor.

I've been upset because since July I've only gone down 2 pounds. According to my doctor I've gone down 3 pounds since she saw me last (which was in September) so that is good. But on my scale it's only 2 pounds. Which is a big freaking bummer and even though I try to not let the scale get me down, I feel like I've been working really hard lately. And then when I don't see the results I want I step back and don't bust my ass.

Like this week.

I worked out 4 times last week and stayed the same.

This week I've only worked out once.

The diet is not the problem. It's the lack of exercise.

So seeing the doctor and having her tell me I look good, that she can see a difference is nice. I mean I've been getting that a lot lately and it helps. I have to stop letting the scale make me happy or sad because I'm wearing clothes I haven't worn in 2 years and OF COURSE my wedding rings again!!

So I'm hoping to start busting ass again at the gym tomorrow. I need to stop feeling sorry for myself.

Fitting in the movie seats on Saturday night was a big plus, too!!

Frustrated

Blah!

Not feeling it all.

Feeling very frustrated because I've only managed to drop 2 pounds since July. I feel like I'm just running in circles right now. *sigh*

And I seriously doubt that I'm going to see the 230's on Saturday.

Double blah!!
