Yes, my pretend boyfriend, Gerry Butler, is on TV right now, and his stunning hottie-hottiness is seriously interfering with my thought process.
Sigh.
Anyway...
This week's workouts have been interfered with as well. Too bad too. I was in the groove with my workouts. The soreness stopped been as debilitating, and my muscles seemed ready for a step-up to the next level. I felt like a cross between Tom Cruise dangling from the cliff at the beginning of Mission Impossible and Susan Powter.
Then the girl thing appeared. Every month it happens. I feel weak, low in energy, and tired. Crabby and hormonal, I've not wanted to do ANYTHING. And Advil has been my friend, a wonderful, dear friend. I love you, Advil!
I'm hoping that, as I lose the fat, I'll eventually get back the problem-free cycles I had in 2006 and before I gave birth to Mini, when I was, uh, smaller.
Meanwhile, I have not lost any more weight. But I have also not gained any weight.
So, I remain...
Total Weight Lost: 3
huh? what did you say?
ReplyDeletei stopped reading the blog after that awesome picture! heheheheh!
STOP IT!! Maintenance is success. And hey, at least you're not jumping on the couch - are you? ;-)
ReplyDeleteI simply can't diet. This doesn't mean I won't watch what I eat, or get exercise, but any kind of regimen that involves me paying attention to what I'm doing - it's the kiss of death. I start feeling deprived and then follow it up with feeling a need to reward myself with doing no exercise/eating badly. Vicious cycle. I have to find the balance between being a complete sloth and being hypervigilant. So far - I'd call it a six out of ten.

ReplyDeleteSee?! I told you I was distracted!
@harmzie:
I promised you all that I'd give a weekly update -- I didn't promise I wouldn't complain! Besides, why have my own blog if I can't complain once in a while?! :)
@wylie:
I know what you mean. I did the diet thing in 2006 -- couldn't stick to it. I became all weird and obsessive compulsive.
My main focus now is exercise and working out. I just avoid eating junk and crap, and let the exercise do its work. :)
lol! OK. I suppose that's really why I started my own too: so I could stop - ahem - reduce the frequency of registering my complaints on yours! ;-)
ReplyDeleteThe couch jumping thing was a Tom Cruise ref. Reading back it doesn't seem to make much sense (Hey, it was 7:30. I make even less sense than usual at 7:30...)
Maintenance is definitely better, keep up the good work the best you can! I find that I can hold onto my weight really bad that time of the month too, but then I'll lose a pound or two overnight right after, so it all kinda evens out over time as a steady loss. I'm on week 3 or so too and doing really well. I'm hoping I can hold off the chocolate when *that* week comes, it's the worst, I crave it so bad!
ReplyDeleteOnce I figured out what the hell you were talking about, I thought to myself, hey, maybe she doesn't know about getting a hat and holding on to it yet!
