Blog to Lose

No matter the plan... we all Blog to Lose!

Just wanted to post that I've had some really good days.  I'd say TWO whole days of not eating something that'd throw me off track.  AAAND, that's while I've baked a cake a day.  My sister and family come over and we, Mexicans, are used to having "meriendas."  These are the meals that come after supper but before late dinner.  Yep.  So, she's pregnant and wants cake.  You don't mess with a pregnant lady!

I've skipped on the cake and it's getting easier.  I even decorated today's with icing!  A whole cake a day?  I send some over to my dad/mom and the rest for her for her roomies who'll be leaving soon :(  That means there's no cake left behind. Good for me and my husband who may need to buy new suits soon!  He's getting interviewed by another two people tomorrow and Friday.  He's taking it all really well, I'd be freaking out.

I worked on my butt and arms earlier.  Just a total of 20 minutes but daaaamn, my butt was feeling it.  I'm hoping to find the reason my knee hurts.  It started hurting after I cooled down from the butt exercises.  I didn't do any jumping so it's not what I thought it was... It's gotta by the ITB, it got worked out.  I'm saving up to see a doctor b/c this is driving me insane.

I've got a message from my former boss who keeps telling me to go back to work.  I love that I'm needed somewhere else besides being a mom/nurse/cleaning lady/therapist at home.  LOL.  He invited me to the celebration for the office's first anniversary.  I'm excited, it'll be on a boat!  Who has parties on boats... anyway, it's in November and I want to look my best.  I kind of find it a little pathetic that I want to show off to my former co-workers, but come on!  I left a really nice/good position to be an at-home mom.  I can at least look presentable.  

I don't have weight loss goals.  I'm at 132 something so I don't want to lose any more weight but want to turn the remaining fat into muscle.  Or replace that with... muscle.  You know.  Cut me some slack, I have no friends (besides you all!) and only speak to my kids/family.  It's hard going out anywhere besides on dates and those are rare.  It'll be nice to be around people who have the same career interests in common, at least for a few hours.  *sigh*

I miss being at the office.  But I'm very happy without the extra stress and strain on my marriage and family life.  Ugh.  Being a woman is hard stuff, men can just go to work 24/7 and not be judged.  Anyway, new motivation.

November 2, here I come.

I'm glad you're going to have a chance to hang out with your former co-workers. What a wonderful thing that you all like each other so well- if the time ever comes that you are ready to go back, you know you'll be welcomed with open arms, or else have a great network for finding something else.  Great news about your hubby- sounds like they really want him, if he's having all of these follow-ups! 

Sorry to hear about the knee flare-up. I think that squats and/or lunges have contributed to my recent calf and hip problem. I'm going to lay off those two sections during Bodypump, and see if that helps. I hope you find a long-lasting solution for your knee!

It's nice to keep in touch with former co-workers, keeps your name out there so if you want to go back to work!

I can't do any kind of squats, lunges, etc.  I even went to a trainer to find a modified version, still killed my knees.  Guess I'm just not meant to have a Beyonce bootie!
