Good morning Feathers,
BF leaves today T________T but I'm gonna use the time he's away to work my butt off on music and home improvement and lots of personal projects, spending more time with my folks and hopefully doing more time at the gym.
We had a little "send-off" for him last night - we got dinner and met up with friends for some drinks at Dinosaur BBQ. I had a half chicken with chopped salad and BBQ fried rice (HEAVEN) aaand the waitress forgot our app of 3 wings so she brought us a free slice of key lime pie. I had half a pint of dark beer and a lot of water - the scale was up 0.8 this morning but no big deal.
I'll be taking BF to the bus and then heading to the gym for epic cardio time + a Pilates mat class, cooking dinner at home, and having my roommate's brother and some other friends over for a Super Nintendo party because it's 1995 again.
Bayzee Yep I'm just kinda hanging out. I honestly don't know WHAT my goals are - I guess I have been trying to eat a little more recently to get my lifts improving again, as well as faster times running. It just snowed bucketloads here so no outside running for a while, but I can at least work on getting my pace up on the treadmill and train with my friends who are doing a triathlon (I can barely swim or ride a bike, sad truth). Summer is the hardest time of year for me too - summer equals BBQs and drinks and too much excitement, but it also means long runs outdoors and hiking and the like.
Maddie You seem so zen and "whatever" now that you're in maintenance - it's awesome, right??!!
Joss I hope you get the answers you need from the bodymedia thingamabobber. NOT KNOWING when you want to know is the worst feeling - I hope you won't give too much power to the scale when you do that initial weigh-in. I am interested to see what it tells you - are you counting calories now? How much are you eating? I counted the other day (Monday) and included all the little extras and I was at 1950 or something - so I must be eating like, 2200+ most days. Crazy. I love N's blog - very inspirational, even though I am one of those aliens who is pretty good at moderation.
Turbo BIG HUGS TO YOU - you are totally not a loser, you've only had a couple interviews thus far and you are still a FRESH graduate - you can complain about being unemployable when you've been "job seeking" for 5 years and haven't even gotten to work at Chez Cora or something, hehehe. I hope you feel better after a more relaxed day exercise-wise - I took yesterday off too and today I feel READY to do anything!
I'm FINALLY being trained on how to update and maintain our website at work. No more emailing updates to a third party and waiting for them to get around to it! I can't wait - website is a freaking mess.
Have a good Wednesday! HAPPY FIRST DAY OF SPRING, too!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
