Doo de doo...

Not much here. As usual, I'm going to try to get my blogging back under control. 

Is it kind of sad that whilst I'm a bibliophile and would prefer to retain all of my books, I'm going to go through them, document title and author, and then get rid of them? Thinking about selling on half.com...or there was another that MommyLife.net had (I was signed up, but I've since forgotten what it was. Maybe I'll peruse her site again, even though she's passed away now). I've just got to find somewhere that I can put my sewing machine and my lappy and get it out of my bedroom so I can have less clutter in my life!

Don't get me wrong - I'm definitely keeping my favorite series. :)

Hope your Turkey Day goes well this week, and for my Canadian friends - hope your day goes well this week! lol and loves

Day Six...Weekend Fail

Well, the weekend was almost a complete bust. I sweated my ever-lovin ass off on Friday at the Cardinals game (but not enough to consider it "exercise", even if we did walk for-freaking-ever!).

Saturday, I got nothing done. It was a lazy day, snuggling with the husband and going stove-shopping (holy shit, stoves are ex-pen-sive!). Yesterday, I did play softball (we won, 11-10), and my knees were hurting so damned bad after the game, I was lucky to be walking. :(

Soda? Yeah, I had one diet Dew on Friday, one diet Coke on Saturday, and none yesterday.

However, I did have one this morning...and it's a full-on soda. Boo. Pick myself up and start again. Imma get my bike finished up (air up the tires) and go for a ride tonight.

How was your weekend?

Day One: Success!

Yesterday was my first day into this "excercise" thing...and I don't think I did too bad.

I didn't have a single soda. Not even a diet one. :) I had loads of water, a couple glasses of half-sweetened Kool-aid, and a big glass of unsweet tea. I love tea--hot, cold, whatevs.

As far as excercise, I had a softball game last night--pretty heavy hour-long game. I sweated my ass off (not literally, cause that would be awesome), ran hard when I was on base, and did my best. Stayed hydrated with water and Gatorade (sugar, yes, but it wasn't soda!).

I will admit that if I desperately need the caffeine, I will have a diet soda (Coke, Mountain Dew, Dr Pepper). So far, so good! :)

My little brother suggested the MiO Energy water additive. There are no calories, but it's got vitamins in addition to the energy stuffs. He's a tall, skinny bastard (that I love dearly), so I'll take his advice. :)

Love you,

1 August--Day One

Here we go, LDs. 1 August. Some sort of excercise three days a week for at least 30 minutes.

Tonight, I have a softball game at 6pm. Would definitely count as exercise.

Tomorrow is an off day because I have darts in the evening, and Friday's out because I'm taking my bestie to a Cardinals game.

Saturday and Sunday will be exercise days.

My weeks start on Mondays, and I think I've figured out the routine---Monday, Wednesday, Friday, Sunday (the Wed/Sun will be interchangable because that's when I play ball). Now, to get someone to take my measurements so I know what I'm starting with.

My Last Day

It's my last day of being super sedentary, LDs. Tomorrow, I begin the transformation.

Don't get me wrong, I KNOW it's not going to happen overnight, cause that would be weird.

It's going to take some hard work and some great friends cheering me on via here or facebook or tumblr or twitter or whatevs.

I'm going to be responsible for myself, because no matter how hard I try to be comfortable in my own skin, I'm not. Especially when my best friends and I take a picture, and it looks like I've eaten a VW Bus that's taking up residence in my ass.

No more.

I'm tired of defending myself to my family, mostly. I'm tired of not being able to run because my knees are horrible.

I'm tired of being fat.
