Waiting for the whoosh....bump TOM

I actually wasn't intending to blog, but I think I needed to vent a little so here I am. 



First the bad, my period started monday and while I haven't had a repeat of death by donut I've had a few cheats (frozen yogurt, 2 mojitos, 2 hot dogs, 1 beer) This isn't in one sitting but over the course of this week.  I didn't really overeat just ate thing I shouldn't have. I haven't weighed myself because I wasn't interested in the emotional rollarcoaster that would have been, but my ankles are currently the size of grapefruit...blah.  When Aunt flo has officially left time I'll weigh a day or so after that  The question is usually after my period if over there is a 3-5 lbs loss, but I've been cheating so there is the potential for a gain.




The good..I'm sticking to the 21 day Fix.  I did a warm up and cool down I found on youtube because I was tired of the one Autumn did EVERYDAY.  That being said I'm really loving 21DF.  Next week is the last week.  i'm supposed to double up on exercise workout, but meh...I don't see that happening.

I doublt I'll be anywhere near the 340s by the end of this month, so no gym bag, but to keep the momentum and since I know I'll finish the 21 day fix I ordered T25.  I realized while I liked the 21 day fix..I don't want to work out 6 days a week forever.  So my august challenge it to work out twice a day 3-4 days a week.   The other days I can do pilates or nothing. While I loved 21DF I missed my pilates.  21DF has pilates, but its one day and I feel like I'd like a beginner pilates workout like I've been doing and I usually feel relaxed after.  I also want to make sure I'm doing cardio and strength and 2 workouts a day should be more than enough.  I don't have any major plans in august so there shouldn't be any interruptions.

NSV - I have more energy and I think my boobs shrunk a little...I have huge boobs so I'm ok with this.  It feels like my bras are fitting better. I think i've lost some inches.  I don't measure, but my clothes just feel better.

Weirdness...no matter what workout I do it takes 24 hours before I feel sour.  So yesterday I did Upper fix, today I did lower fix, but my arms and back are what are sore...Eh just an observation. 

I have a party this weekend, fingers crossed I don't go overboard.

Well this week end been a little wacky. I didn't eat anything I planned to eat. I didn't over eat and I think I made good choices all week. I only exercised once this week which I'm not entirely happy with, but I'm ok with that too. Back at it tomorrow (Saturday). So anyway. I know I haven't had the big 3-4 weight loss I had been having so I jumped on the scale. I'm down a pound( to 333) . Its nice because I haven't gained, but I would like to be firmly in the 320s by the end of the month. I have managed to stick to my lent goals with the exception of the 2 beef meals I've had. I will admit Applebees has been calling and it was rough avoiding the scallops with bacon but I'm ok. Funny who I can ignore the Ben and Jerry's and not the scallops. I wonder if it will get easier. Happy that I am not forming any new attachments with food. I do have a craving for hooter, but I think their salads (if you can call it that, more like salad dressi...

Darn you to Heck Indian Food.

So yesterday I had lunch with my best friend.  She's smaller than me, but still heavy.  We went out to an Indian Buffet and I should have just ordered something from the menu, but I didn't want to spend to much since we were splitting the bill and had the buffet BAD MOVE.  It was all creamy sauce stuff which really begs to be poured over rice.  I was trying to pour it over the cauliflower dish, but that had potatoes in it.  I ended up just saying eff it and eating the cauliflower with a little potatoe.  Then my flawles logic *heavy sarcasm* said well if I'mma cheat go ahead and have the rice too.  I then had like 4 glasses of water.  I don't feel like I ate alot, the problem is I ate because of self peer pressure. I think of course wanted to punish myself and was going to make myself to a really hard workout today, but thought.  Ok I don't really want to do it...and I don't want to NOT workout because I don't want to do the work out.  ...
Well I got back on track with the walking. 7 miles in 2 days is alot compared to where i started from and would be nice to knock out 10 miles by sunday (the end of my work out week). Well on 3fc I have noticed how bad High Frucose Corn Syrup (HFCS) is. So I had some lamb to cook and wanted some flavor. So instead of the marinade (which has HFCS) I bought I put some olive oil, rosemary and thyme in a pan and heated that then added the lamb. A little salt and pepper on both sides. It was probably the best lamb I have ever cooked. I think I am going to give the un-used stuff to my family and finish up the rest. Or we'll see. Something else that happened yesterday. I take the bus from NY to NJ to go home and there is a long escalator to get to the bus top. Easily 20-30 feet.....and the escalator wasn't working. I walked up without stoping. I didn't feel like I was going to die and at the top I didn't stop I kept moving to get to where I had to go. So I realized...
