So wait what is the challenge? we are supposed to do these every week?! I'm effing lost.
the best way to find out what this thread is all about...is to go read the thread , maybe even go back and read several of the sarge's threads...you see ALL THE INFO you need the challenges, why we are here, who sarge is....what fitocracy is, jeanettey challenges, and learn about the spreadsheet too
no need to ever be lost....just read....
happy reading!!
AKA--Rainbow is right, this thread moves fast and it's a lot easier to follow if you read back at least a thread or two, but for now suffice it to say that Jeanettey gives us an extra challenge each Wednesday just to keep things interesting. Go back to post #305 for this weeks challenge, "Drop & Gimme..."
Whew, today has been a very hard day. Woke up and my very first waking thought was of something I wanted from a local restaurant. So far today I have NOT eaten a large pizza with banana pepper rings, a chinese buffet lunch, a vast quantity of italian takeout, and a vaguely defined pie/cake/box of cookies. The craving storm lasted about 7 hours, but now I'm fine.
A little hungry and about to eat a peach and maybe a small salad to hold me over till dinner. For the first 7 hours of the day, I did not even want to try to stay on plan. And now I don't even want to go off plan. Feels good to win a battle, but it's strange to me how divided the mind can be re: what it wants.
Oh josey, I fear I'm far too boring to paint the town!
Just got back from a quick run. Did Jeannetty's challenge broken up into 5 sets during the run. Now I need to make myself presentable and interesting for dinner. Ha!
I got four urgent phone calls today from the local hospital billing saying it was urgent I called them back immediately at number XYZ.
a) these were not messages left on my machine, I answered the phone each time and each time the computer told me to call immediately and hung up. No option to connect.
I called back IMMEDIATELY
b) 3 of the 4 times the number didnt work because the circuit was busy. The 4th time I got a recording saying no one was available and to TRY AGAIN LATER. No option to play phone tag.
c) I finally do get through. First question "What account number is this regarding". Now at our hospital EACH VISIT generates a brand new account number. At no point during any of the 4 messages was I TOLD what account number it is regarding.
d) It cant possibly be about the account number I have in front of me because I received that bill LAST FRIDAY.
e) yes. It was. Billing is harassing me over a bill I received 6 days ago. Just for that when I did my online bill pay I added a few days delay.
Hey ya'll. I'm trucking along. I've done 13 pushups today and 25 crunches. My daughter and I are doing a 100 day burpee challenge, you do 1 burpee on day 1 and 100 on day 100. I fell asleep and didn't do mine yesterday, so I have to make them up today. So before I hit the hay I have to do 10 more burpees. I'm staying on track with my calories, but I know I still need to up my exercise.
I am Ironfish! I am aso completely exhausted and somewhat nauseous now. I don;t think I'll be going for the new quest taht unlocked - Marine Marathon - (6.22 miles continuously) while eating at a caloric deficit.
ok so i am over the moon proud of myself!! nigel took me out to dinner tonight...to cracker barrel...we are celebrating a 2 month extension on his employment placement!!! 2 months!! i am so thankful!!
i love cracker barrel...normally i would have the large chicken and dumplings, hash brown casserole, fried apples, 2 corn muffins with butter, and sometimes a biscuit with honey...that is about 2250 calories!!!!!! i never even calculated that until tonight. i never knew i was eating so much. that is more calories than i even eat in an entire day!!
tonight...i had the turkey and dressing dinner, no gravy, 1/2 order of the dressing, green beans and pinto beans...1/4 muffin, yes 1/4!!! and no butter!! even we split a pumpkin custard dessert and a coffee with cream...and my total INCLUDING the custard was only 635 calories!!!
making good choices = MAKING MYSELF BLACK OPS STRONG!!!
ennay...i would have been so worried over that "urgent call" only to find out it was about a stupid bill....sheeeesh!! sorry that happened to you.
