Cursing my Fitbit

Tuesday, January 08, 2013

Today my fitbit shows that I walked a little over 20,000 steps. If you aren't familiar with Fitbit, you sometimes get some encouragement and motivation on the screen. I have seen things like "looking good" 'good job' etc. So, I took it off to take a shower. After finishing my shower, I picked it up to see "step it up" on the screen.

You know what Fitbit ... &&%$^^#$*))*^&%$#$%^#$^^%@@!#%&&**(&^%$%^

LOL I love this thing.

Church people!

Sunday, April 08, 2012

Tonight I went to candle light mass. The mass starts outside a moves inside with everyone carrying candles that were lit while we were outside. Before the mass starts, everyone is passing around baskets of candles so that everyone can get what they want. If you happen to miss the baskets as they pass you, not to worry, you can go up to the front where there are huge boxes of them for the taking. We all pray, get our candles lit, proceed inside. Beautiful.

Now realize that there are tons of people there because it is a holiday but most were gathered in the front as there was also baptisms going on. Also because it is a holiday, the mass was longer than its usual 1 hour. But, it seems some Catholics can only stand an hour because at the hour point some people started leaving. The whole thing ended up lasting about 3 hours.

Anyway, to wrap up this story... We go to communion and the area that I was sitting was not a lot of people after the exit at the 1 hour mark. In fact, I was the only person on my whole row. There was a couple sitting behind me and on there row was a lady at the far end. I find my row coming back from communion because I have my jacket and 2 candles. We stand for the final prayer and then the priest exits and so does the couple behind me. I stay for the final song. When the song is over, I turn back to pick up my jacket and candles. Hum... jacket but no candles. Wow.

Did I mention that when mass started, you could have grabbed as many candles as you wanted. Wow.

What was I thinking?

Monday, September 07, 2009

I went to a dollar store on my way home frome the gym today to get some cottage cheese. I went to the cooler area and bought eggs, milk, cookies, cauliflower, and yogurt. They didn't have any cauliflower.

Hey did you notice the COOKIES!!!! What was I thinking. They are soft cookies with a key lime frosting and 180 calories for ONE. Luckily there are only 10 in the package. Anyway, I ate one after lunch and it was sooooooo good. I don't know what I was thinking. I immediately wrapped up the rest of them and put them in the BACK of the freezer.

I knew that I could not just leave them on my counter and I know that I they will take a while to thaw so they will just be there until I am about to kill for something sweet and I can take out JUST ONE.

If I can't resist, they will go in the trash. It wouldn't be the first time something had to go in the trash. Hopefully, I am getting better at the whole eating thing that they can live in the freezer unitl a "sweet emergency" or a guest comes by and not make it to the trash.

Still Here

Sunday, August 30, 2009

Ok, so as I said, I am still here. I have not worked out for about a week now. My eating has been OK for the week but I did have some moments of "lapse" I have gained about 3 pounds. Not bad.

Usually my workout routine goes like this. I go to the gym almost everyday and sometimes it is literally everyday. I get addicted to it. When I don't go, I really miss it and feel it. But, if I miss about 4 days in a row, it turns into about 6 months.

I will say that I probably will not go today but tomorrow I am back at it. I have to keep up because in the coming months, I will be back in tax school and then tax season So, I can't let myself get behind the 8 ball now.

Back to the gym I go and also stop eating out with certain people.
