I need to get something to drink my green monsters out of at work that is not clear. For the past couple of days the office has been kind of empty so I was able to drink it without anyone seeing it. But today I was trying to be all ninja like and sneak by everyone without being noticed.
That so didn't happen.
I hear "OMG What is that?". Please. Don't judge my food. I don't judge what you eat so please don't go there with me. Because if I judged what you ate I don't think you would like it at all.
I also forgot my straw which sucked. Ha ha.
And speaking of my food, my body is rejoicing in all these healthy clean food it's been getting. I forgot how good it makes me feel. All the veggies and fruit I've been feeding myself are doing me good!!
Again I need to get the exercise thing in check. I'm hoping that will come along soon.

Another beautiful day
I nearly skipped my workout at the gym this morning but I am so glad I didn't. I really busted my butt and enjoyed it. Plus with the weather being warmer and nice it wasn't nearly that busy. Just the way I like it. Plus I got up earlier so I was able to do 45 minutes on the elliptical and 30 minutes of weights.
Then I went to work for 4 hours of overtime. Blah blah blah. Who wants to hear about that. I did burn my popcorn though which really disappointed me. I really wanted it.
Now I am home. I enjoyed a Green Monster and I am going to hop in the shower soon. Going to make meatloaf for dinner. Can't wait for the Oscars tonight either. I have seen 3 of the movies up for best movie. I love awards shows. Nerd.
Hubby and I watched "Whip It" last night. I liked it. And when I found out it was a book of course now I want to read it.
Time to shower. Happy Sunday.

50 pounds gone (again)
I didn't update for the past 2 days because frankly I figured who the heck wants to listen to me complain about my job? Luckily yesterday wasn't that bad and I'm feeling a bit better. Some of it had to do with TOM and that is done now. But most of it has to do with the lack of help I get from others in the office (although a few people are fantastic and I really appreciate them and tell them all the time). I'm not going to get into specifics because I don't know who may stumble across the blog. You all understand.
However with the stress from work and only one day of exercise I somehow managed to drop 1.6 pounds this week. That puts me at 50.2 pounds gone. I have been WAITING to get to 50 pounds gone again. And on top of that I have been trying to get into the 236's forever. So it feels good.
I think the clean eating has really helped. So I'm going to continue to try and do that as much as I can. I feel really great when I eat like that and I know it really does my body good.
I just have to work on my exercise. Since I've been going into work on Sunday for overtime I go to the gym first so that isn't a big deal. But then I just can't seem to go any other day. I have been thinking it would be really awesome to clean up the garage and make that into a small workout area for me but I don't know if I would actually use it or not.
Anyway, I'm going to go and enjoy some beautiful weather. Some early spring cleaning would be nice. Hubby and I had thought about going to see "Alice In Wonderland" but the cost for BOTH of us to go see it would be over $30 bucks so we decided against it. What a rip off! Plus he was reading reviews and they aren't that great. I love "Alice in Wonderland" and didn't really care either way what the reviews said but whatever. We have a couple netflixs movies we can try to watch instead.

Half way
I feeling much better tonight. Now that TOM is finally blowing by. It was horrible this week and I am sorry that I had put you all through that. Sometimes I sink down pretty badly. So I am sorry if my last few posts were bummers.
But my job is killing me. And I do try to NOT drag it in here but I can't help it sometimes.
My eating has been good. And tonight was grocery night and I remembered to get spinach this week. So that means green monsters!! I missed them last week. I'm going to mix one up tonight so I can take it with me tomorrow. I got a lot of healthy foods and I'm glad that I haven't given in to all this stress. I just wish that I could be hitting the gym. I have to do something. If I was working out that would be helping me big time.
Other then that I don't have much else to blog about right. At least we are half way through the week!!

Losing my mind.
My job is going to put me in the funny farm. I don't know how long I can continue to do 3 jobs before I lose my mind.
I come home and I am too tired to do anything. I don't want to work out. I don't want to do anything.
I need to get a grip.
I don't want to eat though so that is a good thing.
I need a vacation. A very long one.
Also "Lost". What the heck. I'm not enjoying it.

I have a case of the Mondays
I was debating on whether or not I was going to blog tonight or not. I had a yet another rough day at work and I don't want to post yet another bummer of an update.
I enjoyed my first hockey game yesterday. Of course I wanted the USA to win but that was an amazing game and Canada deserved the Gold. And Silver is NOTHING to balk at either.
I wasn't going to go down to the other office tomorrow for my coworkers baby shower but I adore him and I have decided to go. I know he is going to be a great father and I deserve a couple hours out of the office enjoying myself now and then just like everyone else. I'm afraid of what I am going to come back to though. I haven't gotten him a gift yet so I am going to have to swing by Target on my way down and pick up a few little girlie baby gifts (he and his wife are having a girl).
My chicken that I cooked in the crock pot came out good. I call it "fruited chicken". I throw in chicken breast, chicken broth, some dried apples, dried cranberries, some garlic and some pepper and just like it simmer all day. I ate that with some green beans and a baked potato for lunch today. It was super yummy!! I am going to have it again tomorrow but I may get sick of it after a couple of days. I will probably try to freeze the other pieces I cooked for lunches down the road.
I am trying to eat cleaner. I know it's better for my body and I feel better doing it. I really enjoyed the Core plan when weight watchers offered that and so I'm trying to follow that even though they don't do it anymore. Yet count my points as I go along.
I feel like I haven't really spent anytime with my husband in the past couple of days. He was gone for most of Saturday. And then I was gone for a chunk of Sunday.We spent some of yesterday together though. And then today I worked and he was at school. And tonight he is out again. And I'll most likely be sleeping when he gets home. I miss him. This weekend I want to spend all of Saturday night with him. Maybe even like a date night or something. We hardly EVER do that. We haven't since October.
I'm going to go catch up on blogs. I'm trying not to let my depression get the best of me. Hopefully the weekend will get here before I know it.
