In Search of my Body...Not The One I Ate.. #4 "Inspiring Others... 1 Tiara at a Time"

[SeptemberGirl]

Right. No diet soda here! (slurp)

Right, right...gulp. Oh, wait, that was WATER! Pure, perfect, Maine water!

Definitely a great story!!

Actually, it appears to be held at bay for now. Maybe all the endorphins from the exercise help? Or the "eating clean"?

No, caffeine doesn't usually help. Or advil. Or even vicodin. It is an untouchable headache, and I didn't even know what a migraine was before, but I guess it is one.

I have read up on it and it is something to do with your hormone levels dropping during the "off" week between active pills. There are a couple of different treatment options and I will be discussing with the dr, but the first annual checkup appt that I could get was in March.

Plus, you can make me give up diet soda (which I haven't really, I still have one with lunch like I always have), but I will NEVER give up coffee. Believe me, even if I did, I think my coworkers would hold me down and force it down my throat. I am a WITCH without morning coffee.

Um, no comment. No, I refuse to reflect on this on the grounds that it may bring up stories of myself possibly not being chipper. See? This is me, not taking the bait!

Erika? Can I have a star for that? Please?

I get migraines a few days before TOM, every month without fail. It sucks! Heres hoping it feels better soon!

Oh, and without a cup of tea in the morning I am horrid! DH always makes sure theres fresh milk in the fridge and teabags in the canister - hes very well trained!

Wish me luck, when DH leaves to go to work I am going to do my new exercise DVD - Disco Burn Even the name freaks me out!

 

[DisneyWorld Delight]

Right, right...gulp. Oh, wait, that was WATER! Pure, perfect, Maine water!

Yeah, forgot about water from Maine. God's country. It probably sparkles like Edwards skin.

Liz - so I am totally doing your star deal. I'm using red when I exercise, cause I liken it to bloodshed. Just sayin'.

Maddi is really eating it up. Monday she got up and ready for school very well so I gave her a gold star. She opted to put it on her shirt, screw the calendar. Tuesday, she was a bear. And I pointed out she would not be receiving a start and omg, she started bawling! This morning, she in fact did get another gold star. She's like you, gold, gold, gold.

Hmm, I could definitely chime in there.

Anyhow, there is a picture of you with your head down on the concierge desk! I think that you have already been outed.

Mr Kat knows better than to try and talk to me in the morning pre-coffee.

I actually wound up getting ambushed this AM when I got to work (I have my coffee here since it is free and cuts 10 min out of my morning routine at home)... it wasn't pretty!

 

[DISNEY4XMAS]

Steph - Hi!!! You can totally suggest a song. But I think I have one that you might like. But, suggest away!

OH WHAT IS IT WHAT IS IT!!!!!!!

 

[DISNEY4XMAS]

Ok so I got in some what of a nap! I dozed on and off for an hour or so on the couch! Now off to shower and get ready for WORK
But just think I will be slurping up the Maine water this weekend! Well maybe ice because it's so DARN cold! I am thinking that this weekend is going to be a bust... the sledding will be limited to a few minutes then inside to warm up and then back out for a few more minutes. Plus now there is snow supposed to be falling in Massachusetts and my brother won't leave if there is any in the forcast... Heck I wouldn't either if I could make $4000. every time it snowed!!!! I told him to keep that up and he can pay all of our way for the Disney Trip!

Liz Text me my song choice!!!

 

[3DisneyKids]

Melissa, that is a great story. It's awesome of you to take it on, and wonderful that people are reaching out.

Kat, I'm sorry to hear about the migraine. Does caffeine help? Not that we drink diet soda, that's just wrong.

No! Not caffeine! Devil's brew, that stuff!

Right. No diet soda here! (slurp)

I'm watching you....

Right, right...gulp. Oh, wait, that was WATER! Pure, perfect, Maine water!

Erika? Can I have a star for that? Please?

HALF a star, maybe.

AND NANCY! GODDESS CROWN! 6.5....and on the TM, no less!

 

[Leleluvsdis]

Uhhhh... I'm am trying so hard to get motivated, but I'm having no luck!!! my list of to do's is getting longer and longer, but i'm so warm and comfy laying on the couch under my blanket. Thinking of being at WDW in the warm fl weather!!! It's a high of 20 today!!!! I don't remember it being this cold with a foot of snow on the ground

On a good note I have taken a shower, just haven't fixed my hair yet. At least I smell good!!! And I'm 20oz from a gal of water for the day, and the day is only half way through!!!! WOOT WOOT!!! Now if only I could stop having to pee every hour on the hour , but I guess that just means the water is doing it's job.... FLUSHING OUT THE FAT!!!! WOOT WOOT

 

[DisneyGalUK]

Ok, I have completed the exercise DVD - yes, thats right - Completed it! I am so proud of myself I might give myself a Gold Star! I actually can't remember the last time I felt this good about myself!

It was so exhausting but at the end of it I was like

Notes to self:
-Have water nearby then you won't have to run into the kitchen half way through!
-If you are exercising in your living room turn the heat off before you start. Otherwise chances are you will pass out (like I nearly did!)
-If you are exercising in your living room CLOSE THE CURTAINS! I nearly gave made my neighbours eyeballs explode.
-Do not attempt anything when they start with 'Right, for this exercise we will be balancing on one leg'. You WILL fall over.

I think that is all!

Food for today:

Breakfast - All Bran and Skimmed Milk
Snack - Pear
Lunch - Wholemeal wrap with ham, low fat mayo and salad
Snack - Low fat yoghurt and an apple
Dinner - Steamed cod with parsley sauce (healthy living variety), boiled potatoes and whole green beans.

Water - 50 gallons. Or does it just feel like that!

Im really excited to find out everyones themes tunes!

 

[AKASnowWhite]

Hi all ~
Just stopping in to say hi! I watched The Biggest Loser last night with tons of emotions going through me. I was so mad at Joelle -

I was mad at Joelle too. But..then...I wasn't. Did you watch her face...I mean REALLY watch her face? She kept saying things like "I *am* trying"...and "I *will* do this"...she was totally trying to convince herself that she is phsycially and mentally able. She is one scared lady who has a whole lot of *stuff* to sort out in her head.

Bob goin' all postal on her....she totally needed that. Because she needed to be forced waaaayyyy beyond her comfort zone. Otherwise she never would have realized what she's truly capable of.

And I agree - Jerry & Dan. WORST possible scenario- or so it seemed. But Jerry? He'd *gotten* it. No, he wasn't "done" yet...but his head was in the right place - so going home for him wasn't as fatal as I think it would have been for Joelle. I'm really interested in seeing what she does in the next week.

Kat, I'm sorry to hear about the migraine. Does caffeine help? Not that we drink diet soda, that's just wrong.

Oh - I think a diet coke for medicinal purposes would be ok.... ...caffine and advil. My magic cocktail.

I am a WITCH without morning coffee.

Without coffee I don't hit that "witch" stage until afternoon...when I get a raging headache...yeah, I know. caffine addiction.

Wish me luck, when DH leaves to go to work I am going to do my new exercise DVD - Disco Burn Even the name freaks me out!

sounds like FUN. Enjoy


LYZ!! I know I quoted you. What is going on. <grrrr> I was going to tell you....you make my EYES hurt. And I thought you wanted PIE. 'pic', "pie"....close

Liz - so I am totally doing your star deal. I'm using red when I exercise, cause I liken it to bloodshed. Just sayin'.

Hey -whatever works.

No! Not caffeine! Devil's brew, that stuff!

well then call me Satan's Servant


HALF a star, maybe.

AND NANCY! GODDESS CROWN! 6.5....and on the TM, no less!

Why thank you.


Supposed to have a meeting tonight. I have a really bad attitude about it - don't know why....just don't feel like GOING

 

[AKASnowWhite]

-If you are exercising in your living room turn the heat off before you start. Otherwise chances are you will pass out (like I nearly did!)

Turn the heat OFF??? You just got it back!!!

-If you are exercising in your living room CLOSE THE CURTAINS! I nearly gave made my neighbours eyeballs explode.




Water - 50 gallons. Or does it just feel like that!

Is that "U.S. gallons" or "european"....OMG. I just cracked myself up. "EUROPEAN"....does anyone else see the humor in that? you're-a-pee-in'?

so juvenille.

 

[SeptemberGirl]

Nancy, it's freezing. Of course you don't feel like going. I want to wrap myself in blankets and sleep for five or ten hours. And THEN go to bed!


Kelly, good job on the video! And funny about the heat and curtains. I've been there!

Went to yoga today. Still the fattest chick in there by far. WTH? I'm fairly normal in the rest of the gym, but that class, man, I'm the heavy. It's not pretty to look at my legs in those warrior poses!

Also, I'm the youngest. YES. Youngest and heaviest. There's nothing like perfectly toned women older than me to piss me off!

 

[amykab]

Can I join the headache club today? I had a diet Mt dew and am onto coffee and motrin...Ugh...

 

[DisneyGalUK]

Just my sense of humour - I laughed out loud!

I was worried about turning the heat off, but if I'd left it on I would have passed out before I finished the warm up!

Kelly, good job on the video! And funny about the heat and curtains. I've been there!

My thoughts are, if he didn't want to see a sweaty red faced woman disco dancing in her own living room, he shouldn't have looked in the window

I once went to a Yoga class (just the once) - all the women in there were like heads on sticks. They were so skinny, like they'd all come from the same factory! Freaked me out and I never went back

Gosh you two - making my day.

 

[lisaviolet]

I'm home home as in my home downtown. It's so bloody strange to sit in a spotless condo.
