TOO tired.....why don't you try getting off your behind, Misty!!!

Saturday, April 28, 2012

Yo sparkpeeps! What's happenin?! emoticon

Sooo..as most of you know...I've been complaining of being really tired. Which I have been. I've been super busy. But I've had the problem of waking up tired and not doing a really great workout either..so that leaves me feeling blah some more.....the other day I got up..and did zwow 14 and boy oh boy..I felt better the rest of the day..I mean, I was still tired, but my mind set was more positive. WHO WOULDA THUNK IT?!
emoticon

So this morning....we had to run an errand and we went out to breakfast at a great diner. I'm pretty proud of myself. I got a florentine omellete made with EGG WHITES...it had spinach and feta in it and I gave half of my home fries to Troy...I did eat my toast but it was whole wheat so..whatever. I'm a bread gal... emoticon

So yeah..I left feeling good and not overly stuffed or ashamed of what I just shoved my face with. It was good too so I didn't feel "robbed". VICTORY.

I just did a mash up of a great workout...60 minutes. Here's a lil breakdown..

(this is a body rock..I forget what it's called..it's from the Z day's..)
10/50--2x through
1. lunge squat w/ sand bag L 19, 16
2. Squat w/ sand bag 21, 16
3. lunge squat w/ sb R 20, 15
4. squat w/ sb 23, 19
5. reverse push ups w/ equalizer 19, 15
6. squat w/ sb 20, 15
7. knee raises w/ equalizer 22, 20
8. squat w/ sb 21, 17
9. sb weighted crunch 30, 33
10. squat w/ sb 19, 18
This is the Silent Killer workout I'm pretty sure now that I'm going back through...I didn't do so well on some of the numbers because I did a leg workout the other day..and I'm still hurting....but thats a good thing. emoticon

THEN I did a round of a Kyla Gagnon workout ..ripped abs I think...from her site bodyripped.net (thanks again FITMOMMYFORLIFE) I love this workout..I do it a lot...it includes the stability ball I wrote about it the other day (sorry I'm very scattered)

THEN I did part of ZWOW #14..the arm stuff...a time through...

THEN I did a 15 minute walk away the lbs. type workout..1 mile.

THEN a few arm ST things ...(trying to beef up my shoulders....well not beef up but get more definition..summer is coming!)

Needless to say..I feel pretty good! Tonight we're going to Troy's parents for meatloaf..I'm gonna eat it..and I'm gonna like it...just won't over do it! emoticon

I'm still going along real well at my internship..I love it. after this coming week..I'll only have 2 weeks left. It's FLYING. I hope I like my outpatient one just as much!!! ahh!

Now on to a personal thing....for you married/in a relationship folks..or anyone really.....when you approach your guy (or gal) with a problem..do they sometimes take it as you're telling them they do EVERYTHING wrong? ( I personally thing Troy has relationship PTSD from his previous miserable relationship) but..yes....I find I have to be really really gentle with him....or else he thinks I'm "coming at him" in an attacking manner.......anyone?! ...*sigh* ..LOL..things are ok...just hoping I'm not crazy/alone on this.

Other than that..get off yo booty and go shake it a lil! Have a great saturday/weekend my spark friends! Much LOVE! emoticon

    We are regulars at a diner on Sundays... I always get the same - egg white veggie omelet (hold the 'shrooms), I eat half the home fries, and dry wheat toast. LOL :)

    I was going to say almost exactly the same as fitmommyforlife. It is a great suggestion!

    Dang girl! 60 minutes of exercisin'? WOOH! I would have been totally wiped! haha.. gotta love that stamina, eh? =p You're doing so awesome!

As far as the question you asked about the relationship thing, one of the things I really try to do when I'm bringing an issue up with my hubby is I make sure I use the words "ME and "I" rather than YOU. Does that make sense? That way it's not about what THEY are doing wrong, but how YOU feel about something they're doing. for ex: "It makes me feel _______ when you say/do ______"
Also, timing is HUGE. If you come to Troy to talk to him, lets say, after a long day of work, when he's tired maybe grumpy maybe hungry.. he's going to be WAY LESS likely to take in what you're saying. Try to hold off till the time is right, maybe on a weekend, or when you're doing something fun. Also, car ride chats I've found can be dangerous. So try to avoid that too =] Also, a phrase I use when talking with my man and want to bring up a touchy subject is "Hey, can I talk to you about something that's been on my HEART lately?" That way you know that you're sensitive about XYZ and usually will listen closely.

-shrugs- I hope that helps! Obviously everyone is different, but that's just from my experience =] Communication is KEY!!! Talking about your problems when they're still just little problems is SO IMPORTANT.. letting something muster or shoving it under the rug can just make it all worse.. and then you'll be more likely to blurt something out in a way that maybe you don't necessarily mean =]

love ya girl!!!!!! I can't believe you only have TWO WEEKS left of that internship! man time flies!

    Yes. J used to always think I was attacking him personally. Actually, I found it really bizarre, because I would be mad and yelling about something completely unrelated to him, like I'd be mad at something that happened on the way home from work or with my parents, but because I was mad and yelling, he just thought I was angry with him and not telling him why. But I grew up in a house where when you got mad, you found someone to talk at. Not TO, but AT. That way you could get all your anger out and say all the stupid things you want to say BEFORE talking calmly with the person who made you mad. I can't just let things go and come back later, calmer. If I walk away for awhile and come back, I'm even MORE mad than when I left! I have to finish to completion. So anyway, I would do this with Jason, and he would always get defensive or sorry, and I couldn't understand until one day, my sister came over. She was mad at my dad for some reason, and she spent an hour yelling to me about it. Then she was okay and she left. Jason had been back in our bedroom the whole time so that he wouldn't interrupt, and when he came out, he asked why she was mad at me. I was confused, because she wasn't. I think that's when we both finally realized we had different methods of communication, haha.
