V Day

Do chubbybunny and I had an excellent VDay. We spent it working our ass of in a step interval class. It was truly great. We followed that up with a romantic steam in the wet sauna. Who needs men?

Wow

Okay, so I'm not the only one who reads this thing. Shocking. Great efforts ladies. Stopping the hand to mouth is def step one. Congrats on the weight losses. If I had a normal job I would love to get up early and work out. Remember when we did that Tubbs... I think that we the happiest we ever were with our bodies. So, chubbybunny I say, bite the bullet... go to bed early and get up at 7 and make it happen. After work there truly isn't enough time. So, without putting more hours in the day, that's the best thing one can do. I'm still going strong at the gym. 20 out of 22 days at the gym. I haven't stepped on the scale since week 2 though bc I had only lost 2 pounds after dieting and working out. I wanted to punch the scale in the face. Although I'm under the milestone weight I hate so much. So... keep on working ladies. Maybe I'll try the scale Sat morning. I'll keep you posted. PS nothing is cooking in my crockpot bc no on loves me =(

You know why boys don't get obease? Because they're jerks. Thats why. Brads a little heavy but he seriously eats everything under the sun. We're talking EVERYTHING! If I ate like that, I would not be a little heavy (as I am now), I'd be a fucking hippo! Seriously, like 300 pounds. No fair I say. I've been really good on the no flour no sugar routine. Shockingly so. And I've lost..... drum roll please.... 4 pounds!! Weeee! I'm pretty stoked. Not only does the weight loss make me feel better about life, but the fact that I finally have a little control over something that I do makes me really happy. And Brad thinks I have resolve of steel... which is an amusing bonus. It's a little warmer and slightly less depressing here today.... makes me think of the beautiful months to come where doing outdoorsy stuff might not actually be that painful.

Chocolate cake and Bratwurst Diet

This is what is cooking in my crockpot right now and J will be fantasizing about it all day. Also tonight, I'm making J's V-Day present which is a chocolate bag, german chocolate style. It will be filled with german chocolate cake, coconut sorbet, coconut flakes and pecans with chocolate covered blackberries, kiwi and strawberries around it. All while I'm watching what I eat... Ugh! The good news is that I have lost one of the two pounds I somehow gained over the weekend! My weight loss resolve has been strengthen by a dumbass comment J made about not believing that I gain a little weight right before I start losing it because I'm building muscle. Listen J- I am NOT getting fatter!! That would be impossible. All I've been eating are fruits, veggies and high fiber carbs! As you can guess, I shunned him after that comment. Yesterday I ate quinoa with veggies cooked in veggie broth for dinner and had an orange for dessert. Tonight, I'm going to stuff myself on salad and cooked veggies so I won't be hungry when J eats what's pictured above and when I make the cake. Wish me luck on continuing to fight the inner complusive overeater! Somebody please give me a workout suggestion as I want to workout, but I can't get up early enough in the morning and always have stuff going on in the evening. On Wednesday, I have poker night at my boss' house so I'll have to go straight there from work. :(
PS- J was talking this morning about how today is a great day, he's really excited about dinner AND it's pizza roll day! How is he not obese?!? I just want him to get a little fatter than me because its not fair.

Body Age= 30-something?

Good job CowBell! Just don't start dating any 18 year olds... that would be kinda creepy :) I've been trying really hard to eat healthy, but have yet to start working out. Ooops. Today I've been really good- I had a tangelo (orange/grapefruit mix) for breakfast, tomato slices with mozzerella slices and balsalmic vinegar for lunch, and a little apple and DDP for a snack. My office got a giant chocolate cake for all the Dec, Jan and Feb birthdays... we've had a cake in the office every week for the past 3 weeks people. STOP IT!! I'd love to come workout with you one day, I need to get to it. J is in class today- I'll go running after work and check out all the hotties on the IM fields.

Body Age Revealed

Well, I kinda feel like I'm just chatting with myself... but incase anyone is curious my body age was 18!!! There ya go. I have the body of an 18 year old! If anyone is interested in coming to the gym with me, you're more than welcome. Or, if anyone is interested in walking town lake on the weekend we could do that too. Just let me know =)

Body Age

Alright bitches. Come on. Where are our posts? Just wanted to let you know that I will be receiving my "body age" from my gym today. If they tell me I'm any older that a 23.75 year old someone is gonna get punched in the face. Kara and I did that step class again last night. It didn't feel as hard... so we don't know if we're getting more in shape, or if it was just plain easier. Before the class these two tatooed people tried to go into the step studio. We were like, "Are you here for the step class?" And they said they were going to a body pump class. And we were like... uh no you aren't. And they showed me on the schedule where the body pump class was... in the 6pm hour row.... but on the Thursday column. So I took that as a teachable moment and taught some 20-something year olds to read a chart. Oh my. So, let me just say my body age better be 17. I'll keep ya posted. Anyone else out there in cyberspace working out or eating right?

PS I just thought I'd post a picture of my progress thus far. =) Look how tiny my boobs have gotten.
