Can’t think of a title
Nice title, huh? I sat here for a few minutes trying to think of something catchy and then realized that I don’t have that much time to devote to this. I figured you’d all forgive me!!
Today has gone well. I weighed myself this morning and was glad to see the scale is snapping back into shape. I’m down 4.5 to 250.5 Still not back to the 243.5 from a week ago but getting closer. Since I know a lot of it was water weight I would like to lose another 5 pounds this week.
Food was good and I got in 70 minutes on the treadclimber for a burn of over 1350 calories. I was a bit annoyed, however, at the chatty woman who was on the treadclimber next to me. Normally I’m not anti-social, but when I’m at the gym I don’t want to talk. Plus, she doused herself in perfume prior to arriving and kept blaring her tv. She’s new, I actually think today was her 1st day, so hopefully she’ll pickup on gym etiquette pretty soon.
I hope tonight’s episode of TBL is better than last week. I actually turned over the remote to my hubby after about 15 minutes last week b/c it wasn’t appealing to me. Hmmm, maybe the fact that I was diving head-first into a binge had something to do w/it, but I like to watch them working out and learning about ways to improve their fitness, not watch them hang out w/their kids. Before you all condemn me to being a heartless wench, I’m the biggest softie there is. I just wasn’t feeling it last week.
Progress toward workout goal: 74/250

OK, I’m going to get bitchy for a moment here, but for all of you that watch The Biggest Loser, does anyone else want to see Heba sent home? I’m as competitive as the next person, so maybe it’s the pot calling the kettle black, but she needs to chill. I was glad to see Bob tear into her for her choices in dividing the teams.
Oh dear gawd, there was a woman like that today at my gym. Only she’s a staff member, stops at every machine and incessantly talks and insists on vacuuming whatever area I happen to be working in. F that! I need to remember there’s a reason I work out at night. I gave her the evil eye for the duration of my 90 minutes. Think she was spooked by the end.
I don’t want to talk during workouts either.
Hey, the trampoline actually didn’t see any bouncy action, my hubby’s back was hurt from our anniversary workout challenge and the trampoline didn’t help his back. We just chilled on it, like a giant couch. Sorry I spooked you about your parents and the trampoline! To be perfectly honest, since these blogs are a confessional - it’s the lewd reason I bought it - but it’s never been used for that reason. Stupid unadventurous husbands!
I agree! Heba needs to go home!! Oh well, karma is a bitch. Wouldn’t it be funny if she went home tonight
I’m glad I’m not the only one who doesn’t want to chat at the gym. I want to get in and get out and stay focused. I think that’s really why I’ve been hesitant to let the hubs join with me. Plus, I like to turn on my little TV, turn on my music, and hang out with my own thoughts for awhile. I actually consider the cardinal rules of the gym to be always wipe off your equipment, and always wear your headphones (it prevents people from talking to you!)
And Heba.. don’t get me started. I used to love her. Then, after this week, I just wanted to kick her. Quit being such a controlling brat! Ugh. And, I’m with you on not caring for the family reunions. Sure, they’re sweet, but that’s not why I watch. Show me a reunion when they’ve lost enough weight to no longer be recognizable. Then I’m interested. But I’d still rather see them sweat.
Good for you for getting back into it!!!
Heba SUCKS. I just don’t like her. I was hope, hope, HOPING she lost less than 6 pounds. Grrrrrrr Oh well, she’ll get hers eventually.
Hope you have a happy hump day
OH man alive HEBA was ticking me off!!! I was yelling at the tv saying eat the dang peanut butter cups so you beat her!!!!! I did think it was soooo funny when he had a mouth full of peanut butter and COULD not answer and she thought he WOULD not answer! LOL priceless!
