Down With The Fat Girl

Tired of being the "fat girl", I have made a dedication to finally be rid of all my weight. This will be my daily adventures into diet and exercise and some embarrassingly true things about my path to skinny-ville.

Work Out Day-Cardio/Legs

I know it's been a while, but sickness has been back and forth between me and my daughter for the past 2 weeks. When she finally got well, I got sick and once I got well, she got really, REALLY sick and then I had to stay home with her. She's finally "ok" and I ventured out to the gym...it's been almost a month, I can hardly believe it. I'm really disappointed in myself, despite being completely unable to go...even if I could...with hubby working so much and being sick myself, it just wasn't possible. Now I'm back on track. I would love to glow about how great I did today, but I'm going off 5 hours of sleep, PMS and being a little rusty so that was hardly the case.

*long sigh*

Sick Days...

Now, I finally recover and I'm ready and eager to get back to the gym.....

and then my daughter comes down with a nasty nose cold that results in her getting pink eye so that idea gets throw out the window. It's been fun spending time running around town to her doctor appointments and picking up drugs and dealing with a very whiny 3 year old that is sickly.

So, no gym...

BUT I've kept my weight down after my food poisoning! YAY!

Sick Days-Woe Is Me!

I have been struck with food poisoning...since the 28th. I am thrashed. At least I lost almost 4 pounds. I am fearful to eat that much as what little food I do ingest seems to find its way out of me rather quickly.
