Another crazy Monday

Posted lodyangel on May 4th, 2009 | Filed under General

Sorry I have been MIA for so long.  Things got pretty crazy.  I had a portfolio that was due, and it took me about 80 hours to get it all uploaded to livetext.  Then I had checkpoint 3 interviews, which went amazingly well!  I scored the highest score that I could on the interview.  :)  So that made me happy.  Then I had my last “Solo week” of student teaching.  This is my last week of student teaching. I am “phasing out” so there is nothing for me to do this week.  I was suppose to teach this morning since my supervising teacher had a meeting, but I couldn’t go in.  My eyes are all swollen up and ITCHY from some sort of allergic reaction.  I am breaking out in hives and just now I had a small blister form on my knuckle.  Yesterday I kept getting dizzy and at times felt short of breath.   So I called in today.  Hoping this subsides so that I can get better.

During the 80 hour upload nightmare.  I did nothing but work and sit in front of my computer.  It was TOM week so I ate bad things and retained some water.  Because of that I saw the number on the scale I never wanted to see again. 228.  My highest weight ever- again for the second time!!  UGH!  So I hopped back on the eating healthy train and lost 5 pounds last week. I am now back down to 221 so that is a loss of 7 pounds in about a week and a half. 

I ran last week one day and was able to run over a mile without stopping.  Next week I am going to get serious about my training for the 5K.  If I get serious about this I can lose 30 pounds before summers end.

Well that starts next week because by then my student teaching will be OVER. 

I graduate on May 16th.  :)

Well that is about all for now. I will try to check back in tomorrow!

    Wow graduation is less that two weeks away for you! Awesome!

    I can imagine how the 80 hours at the computer would easily slip into eating junk for most of us. You have a great attitude, you picked right back up and moved on!

    WTG on the running … I don’t think I could ever do a mile straight, lol. I don’t know what my problem is but running I just cannot handle!

    Hope the itchies clear up soon!

    Good for you on the running. Remember to build that base slowly and to keep your heart rate in check. Super congrats on your upcoming graduation–time to breath a huge sigh of relief and give yourself a big pat on the back!
