Julie and Julia

so who has seen that movie? I watched it Friday night and it made feel guilty about not updating my blog so I stopped by to check on it and decided for a quick update. I have no updates on the eating good part or working out. BG has been trying to eat everything and at times drink everything.

I am still signed up for boot camp and that starts January 6th. It is on Wednesday and Friday...I had a minor flip out on that but after cpr I realized this is good for me. There is nothing better than a cold Milla Lite after a week of work. I need to be committed and hopefully this will keep me on track.

There are tons of parties in my future and I will enjoy everyone of them. I will be honest I am ready for a new year. The hope of 2010 is always fun and exciting.

Ok I am off to roll out oreo cookie balls for Friday!

Peace, Love and Calories!

Late meetings and Fried Chicken


Last night I was at a meeting and they served fried chicken at dinner and I was good and refrained and it is all I can think about now!

I wish you could count what you didn't eat and the weight would fall off!

The hard part is I keep thinking since I didn't eat it last night I should be rewarded for being good last night!

Vomit

is what I've felt like all weekend. Friday night after my date I participated in neighborhood watch program which is basically drinking beer with the neighbors. I love it but Saturday I was in my coffin all day long. The weather was gross, I was tired and a little hung! I caved in and got pizza for lunch and after eating it I was feeling gross and lethargic. I climbed back into the coffin. I didn't get anything done for the day except a trip to target and cleaning out some of my dvr homework.

Today is a different reason for the vomit feeling. Sunday is boot camp group workout and I literally could've thrown up. I ran...please pick your jaw up. 30 minutes I had to do hard core cardio with Ruth. Ruth is my Jillian. I know you think I am obsessed with the Biggest Loser but seriously she is my Jillian. I told her during one sprint I hated her and I really regret it. We did things that I thought were going to make my arms and legs pop off. We had to squat low and put our arms on our legs and walk around the gym...hello that is kicking my ass right now. 30 minutes of weight lifting felt like a vacation after being with her but then we came back to her to stretch. I was shaking so bad that I couldn't hold my left hand up in the air and grab my right foot so Ruth came and held my hand so I could properly stretch. She rocked my world today but more than anything is that I've realized I have to have that person right now to hold me accountable. I am good for getting in the gym but NEVER do I push myself like she pushed me today. I hated her for 30 minutes but right now I am thinking she rocks. Scott worked us hard on the machines but nothing like Ruth!


So this week is going to be interesting since I am probably going on the road for the election. My association is finally being the big dog in politics and deploying people to work races. Tomorrow I leave for Tidewater to coordinate the Obama rally for my group and I am so excited but that means being away from my way of life. I've stocked up on Tuna packets (btw check out their new flavors....Hickory Smoke rocks) so that is a start! This week will also mark my first anniversary with this blog and how ironic I was talking about Obama during my first post. I can't wait to hear him on Tuesday for my candidate....Creigh Deeds! Remember to vote in VA for Creigh and Steve Shannon!

Rock on readers and wish me luck this week during traveling!

I'm alive and some good news


hey readers....remember when I wrote a few weeks ago I always wondered what I would be like on Biggest Loser? I would be one of the people we all hate. The ones that complain and say they can't do it. Jillian and I would've slapped each other 20 times during this class. I thought I was going to die during Interval Trekking class. First off it is on the elliptical and I've been on the treadmill the majority of the time. It is very hard to switch over but I think I am going to spend some time because I could really feel it as a good cardio workout. You do it at different levels for 5 minutes and then you jump off and do an shoulder press, medicine ball and then shoulder press and then jump back on and do more treadmill. My entire body will be crazy in pain but it is a good pain. My insides are on fire and they hate me. I am also recovering from a girls' weekend that included tons of drinking and great recovery food.....I keep thinking about the onion rings that were truly delicious dipped in homemade ranch!

I can't believe I forgot to tell you that I found a dress for the wedding in November. Karma is great. I had just walked out of the Coach outlet and if you know me I am in love with them and they had the new pink Coach that I am dying for but I walked out and tried to pretend I had self control. Well we walked into a store and there it was....the dress I wanted for Erin's wedding. I went a size lower and when I came out to model for the girls the sales lady said "What size is that" and I was actually already a little self conscious of coming out to model and I said "Why you don't think it fits" and she said "no darling I think you need to go down another size." So I did and hot damn Big Girl is down 2 dress sizes....but after this weekend I am pretty sure I am up 4. So I've resulted to old habits of putting my goal on my door or where I see it first thing in the morning so I will get up and go workout. I hope it will keep me focused because you know i can get distracted! I did this before and I rocked it out!!!!!!

Big Girl goes to the beach

and ate everything that I could get in my mouth. We were in South Carolina so you know the grease had an extra taste to it that made it truly delightful. The onion rings on Saturday that were ordered to cure my headache were about the size of a grape fruit and when you dipped them in the homemade ranch it was a party in my mouth.

I am back to reality and as Winona Ryder clearly states in the 90's Reality Bites!

Boot camp is at 6 tonight so you might get an update on that one! I am doing a trekking class. Hope Big Girl can make it!

Oh and I should tell you about the delicious chocolate cake donut I had on Friday night....it was delightful!!!!!!!
