Wicked Wednesday....

My title is based on the way I felt when I woke up this morning. I had a WICKED headache. My alarm went off at 5:30am so I could go to the gym. I lifted my head up to turn off the alarm and get moving and my head was pounding. I said on no I cant go to the gym with a headache like this. I laid back down and then could not go back to sleep since I knew I should be at the gym. I laid there until 6:30am and then I told myself, if your not going to do the gym get up and do a DVD. That is exactly what I did and suffered through the head pains. I felt good afterward but my headache remained.

Today is my daughter Aria's 6th B-day. Yes, she was an April Fool's baby. I took her to school and dropped off cupcakes for her to share with her class to celebrate her big day. Aria called herself the princess. She is tooo funny but she meant every word of it. I came home from work and told her I was going to take her out to dinner and asked where she wanted to go. She said she did not want to go out she just wanted pizza. Shannon said she is the princess pizza it is...LOL So, we ordered pizza. I am happy to say I only ate 1 slice. That is not the norm. 3-4 slices is. I also had 4 pieces of boneless buffalo chicken and then drank tons of water to wash the evidence away...LOL My dad bought this huge ice cream cake. You all know what a sweet tooth I have so I did have a small piece so I will work extra hard at the gym in the AM but I don't think it was soo bad...Am I in denial??? who knows.

Some good news. I had my annual exam today at 11:00am. I had to do the unwanted and step on the scale. I was 224. I was happy about that since I was up to 226.8 on Monday, so I am at the weight I was before having a weekend to the left and totally outside the box.

Ta Ta for now!

  1. Well, all in all, it sounds like you made some good modifications and also minimized your portions. Did you have salad or breakfast? Remember to try to get in all your different food groups.
    Headaches! I'm known for getting a few doozies. Not as many as I used to since I changed my diets. I had a bad one yesterday too. Three ibuprofen did the trick (luckily). I read what you wrote on Kathy's wall, after my post. It sounded tough, huh? I'm just trying to show a different angle of support. Sometimes I think people we are with can hinder our efforts, even when they have the same goals in mind (weight loss), because we almost condone the other persons choices to justify our own. If we both say "oh well" and give in to something we know we shouldn't eat, just so we can eat it ourselves and it will be okay. (Did that make sense?) Anyway, I am in no way perfect at any of this. But what I do know is that if we don't make the right choices, we won't get to where we want to be. Keep up the good work Shalana. You will get there if you stay on track.
    The quote I heard Winona Judd say this morning, I really like. She said: "I may not be where I want to be, but I sure the hell ain't where I was." Through every pound and every inch lost, that is what I will say to myself. I don't want to go back to where I was. Keep up the great work! YOU CAN DO IT!
