HFCS!

General 6 Comments »

How I hate thee, High Fructose Corn Syrup. I have been trying to avoid you like the plague and yet I forget how devious you are. How, you ask? Well for one thing, I didn’t know that you were hiding in both my raisin bran and my bran flakes. How dare you?! You were also hiding in Mrs. Stratton’s chicken salad, so I decided to make my own, free of you, only to discover that you were in my pickle relish and mayonnaise… the nerve.

HFCS, you are not wanted. Please stay away or I will take action.

Seriously, why do they have to put that crap in everything?

It’s funny…

how I was so anxious to be in the 190s and now I am SO ready to be done with them. I weighed in this morning at 196.0. That’s about a 3 pound loss this month. Not stellar, but I will take it. Better than a gain. Today is usually the day of the month that I would post progress pictures, but I don’t have my camera, so that’s a no-go. My best friend, who will also be running in the 5k this saturday (her first one as well), will be having her bf come with a camera and we’re going directly to the store afterwards to print them out. Also, I’ll get her to email them to me, so I can post them here. Hopefully, he can get one of us running, that would be so neat :)

I know I haven’t been posting a lot here (thanks melody for noticing :) ), but I have been trying to participate more in the biggest loser challenge on the main board. I had been kind of neglecting it and that makes me feel guilty, because people depend on you there for support. Of course, my team, the red team has been dwindling away to just a few active people, so this makes me want to participate even more. I really enjoy it, but I dont want to neglect my blog either, since all of you ladies have always been such a help to me and I love reading about your lives and struggles.

Running has been going well. I’m up to 2.3 miles, though that takes me about 30 minutes lol. I am pretty sure that I will not run the whole 5k, but I will finish,by golly! I did 2 miles yesterday with the stroller on a very hilly course, with small amount of drizzling and lots of wind. It was a miserable, wet day, but I would take it over the heat we’ve been having.

Oh, I forgot to mention that I now have a job! Just PRN (meaning I fill in the gaps here and there) in an NICU, not the same one that I used to work in that I loved so much, but it’s something to help me keep my skills up and get a little Christmas money. I start orientation monday after next. It’ll probably be a once a week deal.

I haven’t had a soda in 3 days. The fact that we ran out yesterday helped lol. I’ve been drinking coffee and water, that’s it. Hmm, I think that’s all of my boring life. Time to check up on my girls!
