Someone make me work out later...
I was supposed to do it last night before this party, and then someone called and asked if I wanted to go to the hockey game. As I live in MD and not Toronto it was impossible, but he came over (brought me dinner :) ) and we watched the game, then a few movies and played Othello. He left around 2 am (I was practically sleeping on him) and I just woke up. I know I needed the sleep but yikes.

Today I have to run more errands and make baked ziti (so I have to get on that right now because I'm making the sauce from scratch) but I NEED to work out.

Stella- I'll go to the gym if you go to the gym.

The last two days have been horrible calorie-wise. I drank like a fish last night but it was so worth it. I don't do that very often. Friday night was our office xmas party at a really nice restaurant with to-die-for mashed potatoes and fries. I'm still eating the leftovers.

Forest - that sounds amazing and deal.

I worked out. I'm like "Jen, you're sitting here whining, get your a$$ on the treadmill." Plus I gained like 1.4 lbs in water weight due to the Boston Market I ate last night (thank you, sodium) so it was motivation.

I finished C25K Week 2 and did about 10 more minutes of interval running just because, then I did ab work and some leg lifts because my ankles keep rolling and it HURTS. My ankles are sooo weak. Like the leg lifts are hard for me, and its a relatively simple thing.

I'm going to go shopping - I have a few more people I need to get gifts for, then Christmas cards and putting together a photo collage for my bff (that's her gift with a theme of "water lillies")

Nice work on the c25k. I went to the gym, got there at 1:45, and then remembered that their winter hours on sunday are only until 2. So that failed. To make up for it I'm going to be productive in other ways today, like filing, cleaning, and grad school apps. I was really looking forward to working out though bc it really is the best cure for a hangover.

Beautiful day in Seattle!
banana pancake and peanut butter for breakfast.
pasta and veggies for lunch.
Dog's still not feeling 100%. Would love to go out for a run but im going to do tae-bo on youtube instead.

Nice work today Stella and Forest!

Yay!

we fired our sunday cook so for the last 2 sundays they have brought in Panera bagel!! Ugh... I ate one with cream cheese and left it at that. Of course I could have chosen something healthier like cereal but I didnt. Will have to do better for the rest of the day.

So somehow I have been rewarded with a 2.4 pound loss after eating like complete crap all week and missing 3 workouts... hey but I wont complain...back on track tomorrow

I have done a lot of shopping this weekend... all shopping for myself haha... I'm redecorating my room so that I dont feel like I'm in high school anymore... I'll post pictures when its complete...which could be a long while

Stella- Good job on the working out... I have a lack of motivation but did a ton of walking the past two days shopping... I'm glad you got to hangout with cute crush boy :) at least I'm pretty sure thats who you were referring to

Mary... I have chub rubbed through many pairs of jeans... I'm looking forward to that going away

My favorite jeans are now too big and I cant find anymore that I like :(
I guess I will just have to be pantsless

I'm watching football...its not seeming to go in my favor...ugh

I am getting so upset!!! I have been going to the gym pretty regularly, working out an hour or more every time. But my weight has been creeping up for the past couple of weeks. This week is my TOM, so I don't know if the number on the scale had something to do with that. It's so frustrating!!! I'm guessing that I might have to drop my calories again, but I'm already at 1400 for the day and I feel like if I dropped any more, I'm going to starve to death! Blah!

Yes, crush boy is definitely who I was hanging out with.

I'm now making sauce to go with my baked ziti for work on Tuesday. And listening to Taylor Swift...she's such a smart girl.

Stella Taylor Swift completes my life... Jump then Fall is a really cute song... It's basically perfect for you and cute boy :) It was released on her platinum edition of Fearless... I love it :) She is a very smart girl... and she always makes me feel better

Baked Ziti... I'm so jealous.. my mom made Italian style ribs... HATE them with a passion...

Hey Chele, seems like its getting harder to get the pounds off the closer you get to your goals. Don't sweat it, you're almost there!

What are Italian style ribs?

Crush boy (haha, this is what I'm going to call him now) isn't coming over - he's not going to make the end of the night game so he's passing. There fore I am going to give myself a normal portion of baked ziti, have a tiny brownie (the mix was STARING at me and I haven't eaten all day) and watch the Giants and the Eagles. I may even wrap presents :)

Stella I'm not sure but they are gross :) haha They are ribs cooked in Tomato sauce and stuff thats about all I can tell you...

I nickname everyone... so I thought crush boy was a good one for him... I dated a Russian once... no1 knew him by name I always referred to him as the Russian... There was/is Rockstar :) its easier to remember who people are this way haha


a tiny brownie sounds perfect...seeing that I drank a venti iced peppermint white chocolate mocha today...ugh

It was a medium sized brownie...
:)

Nicknames are cool. My co-worker and I used to call my ex the C-man (his name was Casey) or the Case-man. Crush boy is fine for this one, its kind of cute. I actually almost made his ringtone crushcrushcrush by paramore, but I felt that was too obvious. He got another paramore song, just not that one.

Also, football is stupid...
