2 more days.

Friday, February 27, 2009

Tray leaves tomorrow to come home, and will get home Sunday evening. I'm so looking forward to that!!

Got up this morning and did a 45 min workout with Leslie Sansone. I looooooove Walk Away The Pounds!! I never thought I'd enjoy it when I was just reading about the DVD's, but then I tried it and it is my FAVE workout video!!

I need to get a couple more of them so I can change things up a bit, but I am so pleased with the one I have anyhow.

I did a test weigh in this morning and I am exactly the same as last week as of this morning, but maybe today's workout made a difference and I'll see a few ounces fall off.

And I am so looking forward to increasing my workouts when Tray gets home and we start hiking after work again. I just hope when we're house hunting that we find a house that is near enough to a park to be able to continue doing that. It's the only exercise she gets since she won't get up with me and workout. Maybe one of these days I will convince her to start exercising with me. It will also help when we find a house with a bit more room. This tiny living room barely allows enough for me to exercise. Putting two people in here would probably end in injury.

Well, I better get moving so I can get to work on time. Only a 3 day work week next week!! Yay!! Thank goodness for vacation days. LOL

  


A few more days!

Thursday, February 26, 2009

Only a few more days til my honey is home. Thank goodness. These last 5 weeks have been killer for me. I am so looking forward to being able to sleep at night again!

So far this week I've been fairly well behaved as far as eating goes, and I've been getting exercise in each day, though not the way I had originally intended. I'd rather get up and exercise first thing in the morning, but i've been so tired that I have been exercising after work instead and getting an extra hour of sleep in the morning. I guess that isn't the end of the world.

I am just hoping that the calories I'm burning will pay off when I weigh in on Saturday. I also know I'm becoming bloated. Just about that time of the month (joy), and my boobs are bigger than usual. LOL But hopefully that won't interfere much with my weigh in.

We'll see how it goes.

Here's to another good day.

  


Yes yes yes yes yes!!!

So today at work one of the ladies asked if I'm on a diet. I said, not really - I'm eating healthy and working out. And she's like - Well you just keep getting smaller!

WAHOO!!!!!! Someone noticed!!! :) :) :)

I was so excited!!!

Anyhow, so I did what I planned - came home and did an hour of cardio during the Ellen show. Yay!!

So, I'm all set to make my calories burned goal this week as long as I get up tomorrow and exercise (or do another hour during Ellen tomorrow night, which might work out well too).

So anyhow, I am in a GREAT mood tonight! Wheee!

And THANK YOU ladies for kicking my butt!!

Somebody kick me!

Thursday, February 19, 2009

I've missed two workout days this week. Tuesday because I was sick (ok fine, I'll live with that one), but this morning I just couldn't get up. I was tired from going to bed so late (nasty weather last night, I was up watching the news until they gave us the all clear). Still, I should have gotten up and exercised anyhow. :(

So tonight the plan is to exercise while Ellen is on. I figure I'll do some WATP stuff and get an hour of cardio in. I really need it.

Then tomorrow morning I HAVE to get up and work out. Saturday is my weigh in and I am afraid I may have backtracked a bit. :(

The good (?) news is that I've been low on calories most of the week. I know, that isn't actually good either, but I guess technically since I have missed a few workouts maybe that is a good thing.

So - I need someone to keep me on track this afternoon. Somebody holler at me to workout today!!

Monday Blues

Monday, February 16, 2009

I did not want to get out of bed this morning. I didn't sleep last night (again). I'm really sick of not sleeping at night. But I don't know what to do to actually get some sleep. I have two more weeks (hopefully no more than that) until Tray gets home, and then I will be fine as far as sleeping goes, but in the meantime, I am struggling to get through each day because I am so tired.

I am actually feeling sick today, and I think it's because I'm lacking sleep. I exercised this morning and nearly passed out half-way through a workout that I've done many times. I know I am not that out of shape considering I have been working out 5 days/week without fail for quite some time now. Granted I miss one day every now and again, but my endurance has been steadily increasing. So this morning's near unconsciousness was not related to being out of shape. It had to be that I am tired and/or that I am sick. Perhaps both.

I've been nauseated since I hit the floor mid-exercise routine, and so far that isn't really going away. I have got to find a way to get some sleep every night. I cannot keep going like I am right now. I had a melt-down last night, which granted I do tend to be an emotional person, but this is the first that I've really freaked out about this situation in a while now - and crying myself into a migraine did not help me in the least.

It's not like anything will change or get fixed by becoming upset, but I just couldn't help it. I was so overwhelmed with being tired and worn out, and even after that I still couldn't fall asleep.

Anyhow, I am tempted to take a half day of sick time today, but we'll see where I am in a few hours. I do need to at least stick around for the morning meeting in 2 hours, and then I will see about going home.

I just don't know what good that will do either though since it isn't like I will get any rest there.

I guess for the time being I should get busy and get my work done.

    Hey there! Go home, walk the dogs, feed the cats, set the alarm, take a Tylenol PM and then pass out. You'll feel better for it in the morning - trust me. Oh. and I'm back. :P
