The Tapeworm made me do it!!!!

 

rn

Okay?I made a huge error last night and I have no idea why?

rn

 

rn

Mindless habit, I think?

rn

 

rn

I had what I often refer to as a ?Grazing? day or a ?Hey, I gotta tapeworm? day?I was hungry ALL DAY LONG?No?Strike that?Not hungry, but felt the need to mindless munch all day long?

rn

 

rn

At first, I did well, I munched only on healthy stuff?Carrots, Light popcorn, etc?But for some reason, when I got home, it got worse! I worked out very hard, had a normal dinner, and was still feeling the munch monster?

rn

 

rn

Now, it is important to note that in my old world, I did this about once a week?In my new world, it happens, oh, MAYBE once a month, even less?So it IS getting better?

rn

But even as I did it, I knew I was doing it. I looked at DH and said ?Why are you letting me do this?? his reply? ?Well, sometimes we all just have those days!? This, my dear buddies, is why he was fired from being my weight loss buddy months ago! Love the guy to death, but geesh, I needed an intervention!

rn

 

rn

So as I ended up my night with two beers and a bowl of cereal (YES, I did!) I was feeling absolutely FULL and miserable?

rn

 

rn

This feeling is what woke my happy ass up at 2 a.m. by the way?My body can no longer handle overeating, and that?s precisely what I did yesterday. I went over by about 300 calories.

rn

 

rn

Now, in the grand scheme of my life, that is not earth shattering, but in the small confines of my new world, it was enough to make me rethink and regret my actions, as I stumbled to the medicine cabinet to grab the Alka-Seltzer!!!!

rn

 

rn

So?Hard lesson learned last night for this chick?

rn

 

rn

Now, there was one highlight to the evening, and of course, I will end on a POSITIVE note, because, well, that?s what I TRY to do! It is Friday after all?Geesh!

rn

 

rn

So I am laying in bed, in misery, mind you, and have my hand on my chest?Not my belly, but between my rib cage and my belly?And it felt weird?Hard! So I said to the hubby ?Give me your hand, QUICK!!!!? So he does, and I make him feel it too?Buddies, it is yet another muscle?One I have NEVER felt in my life?I am far from having Abs of steel, but I do believe, I am getting some ab muscles for sure?Add those to the belly muscle discovered a few months back, and well, you have one delighted Dawn!

rn

Take care and have a great Friday kids!

Theme song for today:

?I’m Fergalicious (so delicious)
My body stay vicious
I be up in the gym just working on my fitness
He’s my witness (oooh, wee)
I put yo’ boy on rock, rock
And he be lining down the block just to watch what I got?

    I’m comforted to hear that even you “OBI WAN” has those days!!

    Obi wanna beer?  Obi wanna snack? he he

    Congratulations on your new found muscle!!!  That is sooo exciting! 

    I was recently showing off my pipes to my dh .

     I say ” Here’s my pipes, there’s some jiggle on the bottom, but hey, I still got em!”  I can see them even though a bit mushy when I lose the fat I know people will fear me!!

    Have a great Friday Dawn!

    Shame on you!!  Isn’t that what you’d tell me?  But I’m not gonna tell you that, especially considering the roll you’ve been on lately.

    As for the muscle…well, YOU GO SISTER!!!

    Your theme song today makes me smile & dance! :)

    I had one of “those days” yesterday too, but as soon as it was over I resolved to put it behind me & move on, and it sounds like you did the same, so GREAT job!!  I hope you have a wonderful weekend Dawnie!

    Beer and cereal?  Do you live in a dorm?  Ha!
    Anyway, I guess you had one of those days.  Now stay focused.  Otherwise you might be writing a blog about having cold pizza for breakfast with a beer chaser!
    Mmmm, cold pizza.

    It must be going around, I had a grazing/tapeworm day two days ago!!! Don’t worry about it…it’s in the past whaddya gonna do? You are doing fantastic, really! Beer and cereal? I’ve heard worse.  (The scary thing is, that sound good right now….. )
    Congrats on the new ab muscle! Those are difficult to find! I can’t wait to feet mine again, all I feel are stretch marks and flab.
    Hang in there, today will be better!

    Sorry Dawn, you lost me too at beer and cereal. Well not so much the cereal, but the milk that goes with it doesn’t go well with beer for me. What’s next….beer floats?

    I’m glad you found your new muscle, it’s a weird moment isn’t it?

    Use the force Obi-Wan, live long and prosper….oh, wait that’s Star Trek, you know what I meant.

It is good with most things LOL…  Dawn you just told me two days ago that one day isn’t going to kill me so I say today back at you!!  One day won’t kill you!  Oh and Fergie always has me on rock rock!!  Can’t wait to see her at the Superbowl!!  Have a great weekend!

    Your exercise is paying off in getting toned.  You are getting closer to your fitness goal!  Take care.

    I have been reading your last few blogs along with this one as I have not been on here much the past week. You have such a way with words and give me so much inspiration!

    There is nothing like a slip up that makes us feel crappy from over eating to help get you back on track at least that is what happens to me! When I do over indulge, my body just can’t handle what is use to and I feel sick from it, I know I hate the feeling and it doesn’t happen again for awhile!

     You are doing so great with all your excercising!

    Have a super day!
