Wednesday...

Alright, so just a quick little blurb about my day while I'm waiting for Jason to get home from class...

TERRIFIC TUESDAY!!

Oh. My. Gosh. I have so many things to talk about tonight.


Alright the big news first...

What the crap?

So my day started out like a typical Monday...

I woke up at the butt crack of dawn. Headed to the gym. Did my thing. Got ready for work. Made the long, boring drive to work. Made it to work. Started the coffee pot. Started up my computer, sat down, prepared to tackle the day I had ahead of me and waited for the coffee to brew. And it all went down hill from there...

Sunday night already??!!

Hello bloggies! So of course last week drug on but the weekend flew by! Ahh, such is life.

So the last time I blogged was last Wedesday - holy cow!

I'm proud to say that I stuck with my planned workouts. My eating on the other hand may not have been so dilligent...

Three down, two to go

I swear this week is taking forever. I kept thinking today was Thursday only to keep being reminded that its Wednesday. Ugh.

Nevertheless, I did my "legs" workout this morning...

Chuggin' Along

Sorry y'all. I know its been a few days. I apologize. I guess there's not a whole lot that has been going on for me to blab about. Odd, I know.

I've gotten two workouts in since Saturday (yay) and I also tried another version of Ogre.

Bittersweet

I made it to the gym today! Not quite as early as I had hoped but still I made it!

Plus, I had another Green Ogre this morning! I used the vanilla protein power in it that I bummed off my brother. I couldn't even taste it.

My workout this morning kicked my butt and I'm totally ready for a nap. Here's how I did:

Green Orge (Monster): The Verdict

Today was the PERFECT day to try out my first Green Orge. 

Will you be my friend?

Good morning bloggies.

I AM SO GLAD ITS FRIDAY!

Well, I finally did it. I gave in and create a Facebook account. And now...

I am addicted.

As if I didn't already have a hard enough time staying focused at work, I have just made it worse. Way to go, Lace. Good one.

Although the little voice inside my head did everything in its power to talk me out of working out this morning and crawling back into bed, I did not give in. I went to the gym....

Green Monster

So have you heard of this? A Green Monster?


Kristen is always blogging about this breakfast smoothie she makes. While she calls her version a Green Ogre (haha I LOVE Shrek!) its pretty much the same thing as a Green Monster, just with her own personal touches.


(deep breath) I think I'm going to try one...

Note to self: Take the time to put your running shoes on!

Somehow I zombied my way to the gym this morning. It was a struggle but I know I'm not the only one that struggled to get up this morning.


The poor girl that was supposed to open the gym didn't show up until like 6:15 - talk about a rough start. The cleaning lady opened the gym up but none of the computers were running and the music wasn't playing. lol

So, we all - yes, there's a line of people just itching to be the first one in there. Including the annoying gross guy with the annoying "shorts problem". Seriously dude, its like 2 degrees out - wear pants! Please! grr.

Sorry. ...we all just wrote down our numbers on a sheet of paper (we usually punch them into the computer) to log in.

muuuuch better

Thanks for all of your postive comments from yesterday's post. I did wayy better yesterday with my eating. I also made it to the gym for a workout but forgot to post what I did. So, I'll just go ahead and post yesterday's and todays...

Oh boy.

Well, I finally did it.

I weighed myself for the first time since before the holidays. It wasn't pretty. I'm up 5 pounds from 5 pounds I was already up before the holidays. That means that I've put on 10 pounds over the last three months or so.

Not. Good.

I know exactely how it happened too...

Random Thoughts

I'm taking a much needed rest day from working out. My legs are super duper sore and the fluid behind my knees is swollen and tender. So yeah, I needed a rest day.

I'm planning on doing my "Pull" strength training tomorrow but won't be doing any cardio - agian, resting my legs/knees. I'm hoping to do a 4 mile run on Saturday after my "Core" workout. Wish me luck.

So, since I don't have a workout to blab about, I thought I'd talk about some things that have been floating around in my brain lately. Are you ready? It might be kinda long (even for my standards)...

Is this thing on?

Alright. So you know that little clock that's down in the right hand corner of your computer screen? Yeah, that one. I think mine's broken. I think that it's slowing down to the point that 1 minute is actually 5 minutes. There's no way it can only be 3:40. NO WAY! That means I still have an hour left at work. Seriously? I'm going to lose it. Can somebody please start installing padding on the walls of my office? I'm THIS CLOSE to going haywire.

Add to that the fact that my stomach is completely not a happy camper this afternoon. I swear its tripled in size since this morning! My buttons on my pants are moaning in protest. I haven't done bad with my eating today, either. Actually, I've done rather well. I don't know what's up.

Oh wait, maybe I do...

I really like being a morning person!

Ouch. I just burnt my toe on the 2156786321 year old heater that's under my desk at work.

Why, you might ask, am I barefoot? Because my feet are FREEZING so I'm trying to get feeling back in my toes! And, the only closed toe flats that I have are these little ballarina flats I got at Wal-Fart for $10 like two years ago. (they really need retired) The only problem is that when I've got them on and I try to head up my toes they make me feet sweat (eww gross) so I take them off while I warm up... complicated, I know...

So, yeah. I'm cold. And I had to go field measure this morning so wearing my nice closed up high heel boots (my only other option at the present time) with nice warm socks was out of the question. Too much walking for heels.

Back in the swing of things

Sadly, I am back at work today. I was thoroughly enjoying my time off and did not want it to come to an end. :(

So now that I'm back to my normal routine, I went to the gym this morning and did my Push workout. Here's how it went:

Its Official: I'm a lazy turd

Well folks, I'm sad (read: feel guilty) that I have to announce that I have not worked out one IOTA since last Wednesday. And you know what? I have had, and still have, no desire to either. Sorry, that's just they way it is.

I'm not even on the fence about getting on the treadmill today. I don't wanna. Period. So guess what, I'm not gonna. Exclamation point.

Alright, enough stomping my feet, crossing my arms and pouting. Which, by the way, I apparently did this morning when Jason drug me out of bed to go to breakfast and get our grocery shopping done before his stupid football game came on at 1:00. :(( He made fun of me for it when he called me out on it, too. Whatever.
