Trying to get back on that horse!

Posted lodyangel on May 5th, 2008 | Filed under General

I planned it last night without much real thought.  I decided to follow a diet plan I had found in my “Flush away the fat” pills.  (More about those later.)  So this morning I stopped at Wal-Mart and purchased a 6 pack of Evian water, a cobb salad, some eggbeaters, and a pack of already cooked bacon.  So breakfast was 4 pieces of the bacon (less than 70 cals) and 1/2 cup of eggbeaters  (60 cals), of which I didn’t finish them all.   So now I am completely happy with my chewing gum and sipping my evian.  :)  

Tonight I plan on running.  I haven’t ran for awhile, so this should be interesting.  If I can’t run for an hour (And let’s be realistic..I doubt I can) I will walk the rest of the time so I can get in an hour of movement.  I am going to leave work on time so that I can do that, refill my fish pond (with no rain it evaporates VERY quickly), and maybe fix some of my flower pots.  

WARNING!  Bodily function talk following!!! 

I don’t know why but for the last 2 weeks I have been horribly constipated.  I have had to take “colon cleanse” pills just to go.  So I found the “Flush away the fat” pills and decided to try those since they are pretty much the same thing.  THe diet I am following was enclosed with this bottle.  I have to find something to get myself back up on the horse.  

I am 2 weeks out from my “quit” date.  :)  I am saddened that I am leaving this place, this classroom that I have inhabited for the past 9-1/2 years.  But I know that good things are ahead and that I can not quit now.  I have to finish this degree.  

Wasn’t it so sad about the horse Eight Belles on Saturday in the
Derby.  I was pulling for her the entire race and then to have that happen was just heartbreaking for me- and the rest of the world apparently. So sad.  It was not a good sports day Saturday.  I watched the NASCAR race later that night and was MAD that Dale Jr was 3 laps away from winning only to wrecked ny that non-driving, careless, moron Kyle Bush.  (Sorry if any of you are Bush fans.)  Not a good night for sports at all…

    Watched the Derby too; it was a heartbreaker, for sure. I knew what they were doing as soon as the second equine ambulance appeared.

    Terrible about that horse :(

    I’m sorry you’ve been constipated. Maybe you could throw some more fiber in there? I know you said you had eggs and bacon for breakfast, maybe a bran muffin instead? Unless that’s not part of that diet. Any matter, I hope it gets better.

    Good luck with the running. I haven’t run an hour in forever. I would love to do it again, but at least we’re out there doing something :)
