going to watch me some Hockey

Made it to the gym this morning. I was dragging and really didn't want to go but as usually once I was there I was super happy about it.

And for the first time I remembered to wear my Polar HR monitor. It actually works with the cardio equipment there so I was able to monitor my HR without looking at my wrist the whole time. Pretty cool. Luckily I turned the volume off so it was buzzing at me every time my heart rate went up. I did 40 minutes on the Elliptical and then 20 minutes of weights.

Then I was off to work for 4 hours of OT. I was able to really push my way through my huge stack of paperwork and had 4 pieces left that I have to really work on tomorrow when I get back. But with tomorrow being the 1st of March I had to really get as much done as I could.

And then this week I have to make a billion new patient charts. Fun times.

I am out of my funk that I seemed to be in last week. Feeling MUCH better and I am so happy about that. I hope this week is much better then last week.

I am so ready for spring. Last week was horrible weather wise. It rained or snowed nearly every single day. I hate gloomy weather. I don't tan but I might have to schedule a few tanning sessions only to get some vitamin D to help me not feel so depressed if this weather keeps up. I just slather on the lotion so I don't burn.

I'm going to watch me some Hockey now. I'm not a fan and I have actually never set down and watched it but this is a big deal with the Gold medal and all. I also need to shower. And make dinner.

Happy Sunday!!

Old school

I am feeling kind of blah today so I leave you with a post from 4 years ago:

I went to the gym this morning and had a great hour and 15 minute workout. I was pretty tired when I first got up and into the shower, but once I got to the gym, I was better.

The day is going along pretty well. I have been munching on some veggies that my boss brought in that were left over from the party last night. I am so hungry this morning. Must be from the gym.

You know what annoys me today? The fact that my co-worker is filing crap behind me and singing along to my radio. I hate that. Am I the only one?

My sister went with me last night to the party and she loves all my co-workers. We spent 30 minutes talking racing with one of them. LOL! It was so much fun. My sister is a Jeff Burton fan, and my co-worker is an Elliott Sadler fan, and then there was little ole dodge fan, me. LOL! It was fun.

I vow to go to a Bristol race someday soon. I think that would be the coolest race ever!

Okay. Back to work. I am doing some extra work for the other office since the girl that did my job there quit. At least I don't have to go down there and work, right?

Georgia is not on my mind...

All I did was think about food today.

I need to get it together!!

Food is not my life. I have to let it stop controlling me.

Sometimes I wish that I could be happy where I am. Once upon a time I didn't care what my weight was. I was loved and that was all that mattered.

I'm not sure when I become so weight obsessed. Somewhere along the way it just started.

And I don't always have this issue. It comes and goes. Ugh.

Anyway...TGIF. I have no big plans for the weekend. But I do plan to clean. This apartment is a mess. And overtime on Sunday. As well as the gym. I only got in 2 workouts this week. Which is better then zero the week before.

So I will aim for 3 this week.

Under statment

To say I had a rough day at work today would be an under statment. I literally was in tears. And I am not a big crier. I was able to calm down after awhile. I know it was hormones (damn you TOM) but I am sick of being so frustrated and under appreciated.

Of course the first thing I wanted to do was eat. But I didn't. I hate being overweight. I am so tired of being tired and I want to just stay in control. So instead of diving into some chocolate (those who follow me on twitter will know I wanted to) I was able to keep things calm and collected.

I tried something an omelet for dinner tonight which I haven't had in awhile and truly enjoyed it.

And then after reading and rereading the blog by Jess over at Truly.Into.Fitness I decided to make up some clean foods for tomorrows lunch. I feel like I have a lot of food to eat for all I have packed up but I have kept it within my points range.

The one thing lacking (as usual) in my life is the exercise.

And I can't wait for the weekend to finally get here.

Cold and Rainy

This week the weather has been very strange.

Currently it is cold and rainy outside. Tuesday it is snowed. But it also rained. Tomorrow it is going to snow. I believe Saturday and Sunday we are going to get more snow. Not a fan of the winter at all so I am not enjoying this at all. I need to move to Hawaii.

Due to the weather on Tuesday I ended up staying home and working out. Hubby had said he would drive me to the gym but I didn't want to risk it. I did Jillian's 30 Day Shred (which I totally feel in my legs today) and then I did some time on the treadmill. I am so sick and tired of this yo-yo I've been doing to my body. I want to treat myself good and I know by working out and eating right I'm going to do that.

I'm having a rough work week. I am just sick and tired of babysitting everyone. It's so frustrating. I can't wait until the weekend. I still don't know what they thought when they let 2 people go in my department. It has done nothing but stress me out.

Treating myself to a coffee on the way in to work. I have a gift card that I have hardly used. I gave up creamer this week. Don't need the extra calories anyway. I just liked the color in my coffee.

Don't let it snow

It's not fun to wake up to snow. And then see that the weatherman is telling you that it's going to snow today through Saturday. Boo. Boo. Boo. I'm less then thrilled. Spring cannot get here fast enough. I am glad that March is right around the corner.

If the weather isn't too bad tonight I am going to hit the gym. If it's bad, then I'll be doing my workout at home. I guess I'll just wait and see what happens when I get out of work.

I am hoping that the weather is bad enough that we close early at work today. I'm not feeling it this morning and would love to be able to come home and do some things around the house that I didn't get to do over the weekend.

Plus then I could just get my workout in early. Boo-ya!

I haven't forgotten about my giveaway. I'm still working on getting things together. I'm up to 105 followers now. Who would have thought?

I mentioned on Twitter that I have only 2 (I originally thought it was 1) flex point left yesterday. I will not buy anymore Cadbury mini eggs anytime soon. Ha. Evil little buggers.

Off to wake the husband for work. Hope it's a fast day. Yesterday totally dragged.

Where did my weekend go?

I feel like I have a million things to do!! I totally let this weekend get away from me and I'm not even sure how that happened.

Yesterday my sister and I went to see "Shutter Island" and it was amazing!! Leonardo DiCaprio did a great job. He is an amazing actor. I highly recommend this movie. It's more of a thriller then a scary movie. It totally did the book justice.

I brought my own snacks with me. Some popcorn with some mini eggs thrown in. Yum!! Proud of myself for not eating their over priced food.

Then today I went to the gym. Woohoo!! Yeah. I did 40 minutes on the elliptical and then 20 minutes of weights. I probably would have done more if I didn't have to go to work. I ended up getting up later then planned and wanted to get it over with.

So now I'm trying to get everything done today. Since I didn't do much yesterday before or after the movie.

Boo.

I miss the hubs. I feel like we haven't spent a lot of time together the past few days so I'm looking forward to spending tonight together (when he gets home).

Hello again Weight Watchers!!

It was great to be back. And I was even happier to see that I was still the same weight that I was the last time I went to weight watchers in November of 2009.

242.4 pounds.

Yes that is really a 4 pound gain between my scale and their scale. But when I weigh at home I *cough* don't wear clothes. And I usually weigh in the morning before I eat or drink anything. So by the time I went to the meeting at 12:15pm I had eaten breakfast, had one cup of coffee and had a few sips of water.

Next week it will be less.

I am happy about my decision to go back. I even stayed for the getting started afterward. I haven't done that in a very long time. Nancy (the leader) makes me laugh. She is so funny. She lost 44 pounds in 1995 and has kept it off. She reminds me a lot of my Mom so maybe that is why I like her.

I also realized that the last time I joined and lost a serious amount of weight (102 pounds) was February of 2001. And before that? February 1998 (67 pounds). Maybe that means something.

Anyone heard of this new "set points" they are bringing in? I'm a little leery of it. I guess they bring it in during week 5 so I don't have that book yet but its something they do in Europe. I'm not sure if I could eat something that was set at 9 points and stop when I was full. I don't have to worry about that now. Of course I wasn't sure how I felt about the 35 points either and I like those just fine. I think I may be the only person who really liked Core and lost weight on that, too, so who knows.

I think I am going to do a before photo. The thought scares me just a little but I think it will do me good.

Can't wait for "Shutter Island" tomorrow!!

Quickie update

I'm going to have a real blog post I promise. And a giveaway is coming.

Just wanted to post and update that I am going to go back to Weight Watchers tomorrow!!

Looking forward to it. I need it. Things are just kind of blah when it comes to the weight loss thing and I need to get back on the horse.

I spoke to my Mom for 2 hours tonight. I miss her!! I wish she lived in Connecticut still. Even 8 years after she moved I wish she was still down the street.

Ask Me

Everyone is doing it so I decided to do it to. So go ahead. Ask me anything;

Tuesday, February 16, 2010

Oh Canada I will have your mittens!!

Thanks to Crystal at Bye Bye Fat Pants!! I never win ANYTHING and I was one of the lucky ones to win one of the pairs of mittens she had to give away.

I was so excited I was screaming it from the rooftop. Okay-so maybe not from the rooftop but I was pretty darn happy about it. Woohoo mittens!!

Thanks to my awesomeness of being a light sleeper-I didn't make it to the gym this morning. And I am beat tonight. So we'll try again tomorrow. I'll do it at some point.

I am currently reading "Tales from the Scale" by Erin Shea and I am truly enjoying it. I almost submitted something to it years ago when I had lost my weight (back then). It's interesting to read. I highly recommended it.

And I will not discus work. It does nothing but stress me out.

100!!

Alright my awesome friends. Thanks to John over at Smoke Training I have hit 100 followers and now I am going to decide on a giveaway. Not sure what yet but I am going to do something. I will most likely post it this weekend (I got paid on Friday ha ha) but it will be coming.

I had a rough Valentine's weekend. I ate and enjoyed myself. We had fun. I'm not going to lie. But this self destruction has to stop when it comes to unhealthy eating. I had a great Valentine's day. I love my husband. I am a lucky woman who has such a devoted man who loves me the way I am and doesn't care what I weigh and only wants me to be happy.

Tomorrow I start hitting the gym again. I have a brand new urine free gym bag (I think I mentioned my cat peed in my gym bag, yes?) that I have yet to use.

And Friday? Well Friday I am going back to Weight Watchers. I may pick up a goodie or two for the giveaway. We'll see.

Saturday the sister and I are going to see "Shutter Island". I sucked down that book so fast you would not believe. It was so good. I can't wait to see the movie. I adore Leonardo DiCaprio and I hope the movie does the book justice.

I am really enjoying my 4 day weekend. Too bad it is going to end tomorrow. Boo!!

So a giveaway is coming!! Just have to decide what to giveaway!!

Happy Valentine's Day!!

I'm happy to be back at 237.4 pounds. I took a pound off last week although I'm not sure how I did that. I was sick. I didn't eat that great. And I only worked out once. But I'll take it.

I plan to workout out 3-4 times this week and see what happens. Hopefully I'll get to the gym a few times. I don't know about you, but I would much rather be at the gym sweating and getting healthy then at home. Not sure why that is.

So I went into work yesterday for 4 hours. And I easily could have worked 8 hours. I was gone for only one day (I also have Monday off, too) and it was a disaster. I'm not sure what the grand plot was when they decided to let 2 coworkers go in my department but it certainly has NOT helped me at all. Which is why I gained back 4 pounds in the first place.

No big plans for Valentine's Day for the hubby and I. I am making dinner tonight. I'm just looking forward to spending time with him. I kind of wish we were going out somewhere nice just to say we were but as long as I am with him I am happy.

After work yesterday Hubby and I went to the airport to pick up his parents. They were coming back from the service for his Aunt. I still wish we could have been there. But we just didn't have the funds to fly. It would have cost too much money. And everyone knew that. We could have driven but the thought makes my stomach turn (I got car sick so easily). Being at the airport just makes me wish I had plans to fly somewhere nice. Hopefully we'll be going to Arizona and Vegas in September for our 10 year wedding anniversary. But we'll have to wait and see on that.

So my blog friends. I am very close t hitting 100 followers. I am going to do a giveaway once I hit 100 followers. Not sure what I am going to giveaway yet but I have a few ideas. I just need one more person. One more. And hello and thanks and Hey!! To all my new followers.

Oh Canada! HowI want your mittens!!

Yes I am supposed to be working right now. But I just had to stop and do this update.

I have been DYING for a pair of those nifty Olympic mittens all you lucky Canadians have been wearing. The lovely Crystal over at Bye Bye Fat Pants is giving away not one but THREE pairs of them.

That is right my friends. THREE PAIRS of beautiful red mittens that I WANT more then you know. I was telling the husband last night I want them. And I would love to win them. But if you want to win them, too, then head on over to her page for your chance to win.
But a pair of those belong to ME. Ha ha!!

I have pictures

It was nice to sleep in and not have to work today. I like having a 4 day weekend. Although I am going in tomorrow to catch up on a few things. I wouldn't be doing that if I wasn't out sick on Wednesday.

I started my Friday off with some coffee. I love my coffee maker!! I am the only one who drinks coffee so it was always a waste to brew a whole pot. Now I can brew one cup (or two usually) and not waste any of it!!Also check out my coffee cup. It's not a paper cup. It's porcelain. Hubby got it for me for Christmas.


After waking up a little bit and checking up on twitter and facebook updates I decided to get my exercise on. I started with this:

A little workout with Bob!! I love the Biggest Loser: Boot Camp workout. Check out my girl Ali on the right. Her arms are huge!! To die for. I try to ignore Vicky in this DVD because I never liked her on the show. Kind of like Melissa from the red team this season.

Here is what I looked like after 30 minutes:


Sweat city!! I went out to the garage and hit the treadmill for another 30 minutes after but I didn't take any pictures of that.

After my workout I was starving so I decided on a green monster. I hadn't had one in awhile and couldn't wait to try out some new ingredients.

I got some organic spinach buy one get one at the grocery store last night. And I don't always buy Biggest Loser protein powder but it happened to be on sale at the store. I used the last of it today so I have to buy some more powder. I also had never used Almond Breeze before so I picked some of that up last night. All of this went into my blender.


I have to say that this is the best Green Monster that I have had yet!! I enjoyed it with the orange juice but I think the Almond Breeze really helped, too. But I think I will continue to make it like this. Plus it was only 4 points. Score!!

And then later on I was hungry so I gathered up a few yummy items:And made this little delicious snack:
So that is all the pictures I took today. I enjoyed it. And I enjoyed getting back on track food and exercise wise. Plus blog wise I think this looks good. Because after all this is a weight loss blog, right?!

Looking forward to the Olympics tonight!! Nothing like a true athlete to truly inspire you!!

My ego is bruised

After spending nearly $200 to stock up on good healthy groceries tonight I took a little spill in the driveway when we got home. My ego was more bruised then anything else but knee is going to be sore tomorrow.

But I got a lot of healthy stuff tonight to help me stay on track with my eating. I'm looking forward to making some green monsters. Spinach was buy one get one free! Woohoo!!

I am feeling 100% better!! I am so glad that cold is finally over. I don't remember the last time I was sick like that but it has been a very long time. And I know I'm not sick anymore because my appetite is back. ha!!

I'm off work until Tuesday which is nice. That is why I hated to take a sick day yesterday but I had to do it. I'm planning on going in on Saturday or Sunday to do a few things. Plus I forgot to fill on my time sheet.

I plan on working out tomorrow.

I also want to dig out the camera so I can take some pictures for my blog.

Off to catch up on all your blogs!!

Home sick

With the bosses blessing I am home today. I called him in the afternoon yesterday (he was out of the office all day) and told him I was sick as a dog and wasn't going to be coming in to work today. He told me to stay home and get better. I have my cell on so if they need me they can call me but they never do that.

I just feel TERRIBLE because I'm off Friday and Monday. I am planning on going in on Saturday to catch up on some work. I know I shouldn't but since I didn't plan on getting sick I have to do it.

I am feeling a little better this morning but my throat is bothering me now which is never good.

Another reason I don't feel so bad about staying home today is that it's supposed to snow like mad and the office will be dead. We may even close early. 10-14 inches are expected so we'll see how that goes. I'm glad I don't have to go out in it. Hubby doesn't have school so he is running a few last minute errands. I asked for some weight watchers ice cream to keep me on track.

And speaking of, I weighed myself this morning and it said 237.4 pounds. Which is where I was a few weeks ago before I gained 4 pounds. Huh. Who would have guessed. I haven't been eating that great but I haven't been eating that much. Today I swore I would get back on track and stop eating junk.

Hubby and I have last nights "Lost' to watch since I had to watch "the Biggest Loser". I was pleased with the episode and am learning to love a few contestants. I still miss Tara though. She was amazing.

Off to lie down. I need to catch up on all your blogs, too.

Tuesday, February 9, 2010

Rest in Peace

Thanks for the well wishes. I'm still feeling horrible. I hope this passes soon. My eating is not the best when I'm sick. I wish it was but it isn't. Luckily I don't have that much of an appetite but what I did eat yesterday wasn't the best.

On a sad note, my husband's Aunt passed away yesterday. We got a call on Sunday from his parents saying she was on life support. She has been sick for awhile. She lives in Florida and they been talking about driving down and we were going to go with them. But then everyone decided to fly and we couldn't afford to go. His parents left this morning. She was a wonderful woman, always made me feel like one of the family. I will miss her a lot. She didn't take any crap from anyone. I always like people like that.

I am keeping the husband's family in my thoughts right now. I know it must not be easy to lose a sister or a child. I know it's hard to lose a parent so I can only imagine what his family is going through right now. I only wish we could be there right now.

Monday, February 8, 2010

Even worse

Ugh.

Still sick. Worse then yesterday. I woke up this morning after getting nearly 10 hours of sleep and thought I was back to good health.

But by 10am this morning I was dragging. I felt even worse then I had all weekend.

I made it through work and now I'm ready to curl up up some good medication and rest for the night.

If my neighbors ever stop hammering upstairs that. Not sure what it is they are actually hammering but it's kind of annoying.

Hope to back to good health soon!!

Still sickly

I am still feeling sick. I spent all of yesterday in my pajamas. I did laundry and a few other things around the house but that was about it.

And this morning? I still feel horrible. So I didn't go into work today like I had planned. And I am so not going to the gym like this either. Because I know from my past experiences that it will only make it worse if I go work out. As soon as I am feeling 100% better I will be back at it. Or at some form of exercise. Whether it be at home or at the gym or whatever.

I also would like to follow the lead of many of my fellow bloggers who post their food on their blogs. I noticed that the lovely Andrea has been doing that this week and it has given me some ideas. Now I am the kind of person who tends to eat the same thing a lot. And I may not post pictures everyday but I figure why not at least a couple times a week? That might help keep me on track.

I have the worst headache in the world today. Ugh. Going to lie down I think. Enjoy your Sunday my friends. If you are watching the superbowl don't eat too much!!

Saturday, February 6, 2010

Another Saturday

I don't feel well. I think I just may be coming down with what the hubby has. Yuck. Honestly I do not have time to get sick. I have too much to finish up at work before my 4 day weekend next week.

Right now I'm just relaxing and enjoying a late cup of coffee. I usually try to cut the caffeine off by 11am but I decided to treat myself today because I'm not feeling all that hot right now.

I'm also down 0.6 pounds this morning.

Yes-I still would like to go back to weight watchers meetings. And plan to in time. But right now money is very tight. So I am going to hold off on right now. I know that if I get my lazy butt to the gym and follow the online plan like I know I can, the weight will come off. And I plan to do that.

Tomorrow I am going to the gym. And I start back at it. To see how much I can drop before my cousin's wedding. I am hoping 20 pounds but 15 would be fine, too.

Hello to all my new followers! I am close 100 right now. I am pretty excited about that.

I just finished reading "The Time Traveler's Wife" last night. What an amazing book. Next in my pile is "Shutter Island". Thank you paperbackswap dot com! I have gotten some amazing books from there since I signed up. And someone signed up through me and I got a credit but I don't know them. So thank you-if you read my blog!

Hubby and I are not football fans so we are not excited about the superbowl. I am a Nascar fan so I am excited about the Daytona 500 next weekend though!! Woohoo!!

I am going to lay low this today since I don't feel that great. Hubby took a big test yesterday at school and PASSED! He can know start looking for a job. I am so proud of him. I knew he would do it. I also am going to watch the "Biggest Loser" from Tuesday since I missed it due to "Lost".

Happy Saturday.

healthy and fit

Okay ya’ll. I am seriously struggling these days. You know that I gained 4 pounds a couple of weeks ago. And I was okay with that. I know it came with stress from work and when I get stressed I tend to eat. I’m an emotional eater who likes to eat cake when she gets her hands on it. And sugar makes me want to eat more sugar. Which is just not good for me.

Anyway, so I lost 2.4 of those pounds last week. Which Woohoo Yeah Ra Ra right? But I’m still not sure how I did that because it was the week before TOM and I only went to the gym once. But I was happy. Even though ww online was not happy, giving me the little “losing more then 2 pounds a week is not healthy” speech. Tell me something I don’t already know thank you very much.

I haven’t gone back to weight watchers meetings yet. And I want to. I’m a bit nervous about it. But I am ready. Because I have my best success going there (um 100+ pounds thanks). And I am struggling so much with staying under 240 pounds. I’m afraid if I don’t get back there I am going to shoot back up to the 250’s before I know. I worked so hard to get here, even though it took awhile.

I have so much I want to do over the course of the next few months. And being overweight just makes me unhappy. I’m not comfortable. I enjoying being healthy and fit and working out.

I’ll also admit that I am ashamed to go out at times. I don’t want people to see how much weight I’ve gained. Yes-I have lost some of that weight but at one point I was so proud of myself and couldn’t wait to show off how my hard work. Which I somehow let slip away. And it’s embarrassing to me how I let myself go (again). Which is why I want to work really hard to get off as much weight as I can before my cousin’s wedding in May. Even if it’s only another 20 pounds. That would be something.

So I’m being brutally honest. I’m going to try to be the best weight loss blogger I can be. And if try to go back to weight watchers tomorrow if I can have the truck. Not sure if hubby has plans. I may have to have him drive me there or get a ride or SOMETHING. Like I’ve said before-sharing a vehicle BLOWS but we are working on it.

I am going to try and start posting more pictures, etc.

Okay-lots of stuff to do here. Mah!!

A new find


These are so super good!! And only 90 calories!! I have to watch my fiber intake sometimes but I could probably eat the whole box if I wasn't careful. They are only 1 point each which is a plus. I enjoy having a little something sweet after my lunch and this is a nice little treat.

I can't wait for the weekend to get here. I am planning on (finally) getting back to the gym this weekend. I need it!!

Wedding bells

My cousin is getting married in May. And she is getting married at the same place the hubby and I said our wedding vows nearly 10 years ago.

I must try to get into the best shape I can in the next few months before this wedding! The whole family is going to be there.

No-I am not in the wedding but still. I want to look half way decent.

Plus my Mom will be flying out for the wedding and I am super excited to have her coming out again.

I must get back to the gym!! I can do it!!

At least it is Wednesday

Hello my lovelies. Today is the first day in a week that I am feeling like myself again. TOM can be a bitch sometimes.

I didn't watch "The Biggest Loser" last night. I know what happened thanks to google and looking it up online. But to be frank with you-I didn't really miss it. This is the first season that I haven't been able to really get into the show. I hate the red team with a passion and I find they are ruining the show for me.

I skipped it to watch the premiere of "Lost" which did not disappoint. WOW! That blew my mind. I can't wait for next week. I am sad that this is the last season but I also cannot wait to see how it is going to end.

I'm trying to figure out my exercise schedule. Since I am allowed overtime at work I am taking it. What I need to do is work 4 hours on the weekend and not stay late during the week and that will solve my problems.

Eating is going well. I can hope to at least stay the same this week.

Lots of blogs to catch up on!!

Also do you want a free lulu water bottle? Then head on over to Ali's page for her giveaway!!

Happy Birthday Dennis!

As always Groundhog's day brings a bit of happiness and sadness to my life. It would be my friend and co-worker's 44th Birthday today. Dennis would have been 44.

He passed away in March of 2005. He went home sick from work and died the next day at the hospital. It was so quick and sudden we all barely had time to register it. I never met someone like him before. He loved to eat. He loved to laugh. He always made me laugh. He was always up to something. He was loads of fun. And he could cook up a storm!! He was always bringing in something TERRIBLE (in a good way) to eat. I miss him a lot. We all do. And I can't help but wonder what he would think about the way things have come about at work these days. They have changed a lot since he left us.

As for me, things are going pretty well. Diet is going well. I am resisting the urge to come home and open up mouth and shovel in food. It can be really tough sometimes. I can so stressed at work. I don't understand how people can have a job when they are making the mistakes they make. My 4 day weekend cannot get here fast enough.

Remember my fitbit? And how happy I was to get it for Christmas? Right now I'm not happy with it. The screen isn't working. And this isn't the only problem I've had with it.

Time for "Lost"!!
