Who else is furious with Joelle on BL?!? Omg. I so felt for Bob when he was screaming at her, I thought my head was going to explode, I can't imagine Bob or any of her teammates?
We all have rough times, where this feels like an insurmountable task. It does! But she obviously doesn't want it that badly, because $25k almost dissuaded her. $5k almost dissuaded her!
(Oh, and where does she live that $5k buys a house??)
But instead, Jerry went home. Sweet Jerry, the type of guy you love to hug. I hope Bob ignores Joelle next week. I know its not nice, but she bitched and moaned the whole time, she doesn't deserve his time. I would say Bob should drive her into the ground, but I'm afraid she'd bump someone else out again, someone who wants this bad enough to work for it!
Ok, rant over. lol
My big sister came over to watch BL with me, and she's hooked. We've made it a Tuesday night date, each of us bringing our best WW dinner recipe. Tonight was pizza, my husband's choice, but we only had one slice each. Go us! And then we had my Skinny Pumpkin muffins, two points each. I did fall off the wagon with the cream cheese frosting, but I only dipped into 4 of my weekly flex points!
I haven't been on the treadmill yet, but I think I'm going to give myself the day off. My poor body isn't doing well with three hours sleep (damn the night shift to day shift transition) and I've had intermittent feelings of mild nausea all day. Bleh.
Today was 236.0, maintaining which is fine with me!
Go Team Lynn buddies, we can do this!

Temptation, Thy Name is Breadsticks

Ok, I'm totally being sucked in by BL Season Six. I bought BL6 on the iTunes store last night and watched a couple episodes to help me stay up, prepping for some night shifts this weekend.
The scale hasn't budged since yesterday, its still at 235.5 but I'm ok with that. I'm inspired by the BL6 episodes I've been watching, and I see an awesome workout in my future today which will hopefully show on the scale tomorrow. I had a Slim-Fast shake for breakfast, my old standby. I normally don't ever eat breakfast, I actually get a little nauseated when I do so I've switched to the shakes. I can guzzle one down and it feels like I'm just drinking something rather than actually eating, and I know it gets my metabolism going because then I'm hungry by 10am!
But- I feel like I'm coming up into my first major temptation- an amazing Italian restaurant in town, we've been invited out to dinner with our dear friends. Oh yeah, this could be bad. They have a Lighter Fare section of the menu, but it includes fettucine alfredo. What the hell?? I think its lighter only because it doesn't include soup or salad. After looking at the menu, I think my plan for the day is this:
Activity:
-Kickass Jillian-style workout. I usually do 30 minutes, I'm hoping to ramp it up to 45 today. My new favorite workout song is Hot N' Cold by Katy Perry. I have it so many times on my iPod playlist, I should just do a continuous loop. lol
Meals:
- Lunch will be light, I'm thinking fruit and veggies since I've been a little light on those this week.- For dinner, no bread and no wine. Diet soda or water.
-Appetizer of steamed mussels.
-Entree of spaghetti alla puttanesca.
-No dessert.
Oh yeah, I can totally do this. I'm hoping to be posting some starting weight pictures- I tried to do a working out picture when I was on the treadmill yesterday, but it was a little tricky and I almost ricocheted off the damn thing. I'll see if my handsome honey can take a picture for me tomorrow. Woo-hoo!

Can I Be the Biggest Loser??

Ok, I'm going to just close my eyes and jump! I've joined the Biggest Loser Blog Edition 2nd Season and I'm so excited! http://biggestloserblogedition.blogspot.com
I normally hate any kind of public weight related stuff, but the internet is such a nice safe haven for those (like me) that are mortified to ever discuss this kind of stuff in public!
My starting weight is 237 pounds (say it with me now- Oh. My. God.) and my weigh-in day is Sunday. My goal is to lose 10% of my body weight, which is 23.7 pounds.
Today is hardly an auspicious start to my day- I have eaten a mini-Totino's pizza, 3 large sugar cookies, honey shrimp and rice, an eggroll, and about 6 cans of Diet Dr. Pepper. I was about to type 'My only excuse is....' but I have no excuse. lol
The positives from the day? I've managed to drink about 40oz of water, which is better than I would have thought- and now that I've typed that, I think I'll refill my water bottle and see if I can't hit 64oz. before bedtime!
And I was on the treadmill today too! I recently saw an ad for an incline trainer by Nordic Track (what actually got my attention was the fact that Jillian from BL has workouts customized for it- omg!) and thought huh, that'd be interesting. You can burn 800 calories on that thing- I cannot even fathom what you must feel like after burning 800 calories, because my lungs have combusted before I hit 200. But anyway, I realized that the incline on our treadmill goes up to 10, so I did 5 minutes at 10 with a speed of 2.5mph. It was pretty impressive, I could feel the burn up my glutes and into my lower back! My goal has been to be able to do a 45-60 minute run (like I used to way back when!) but I think I might throw some incline work in there too to change it up.
Biggest Loser, here I come!
