Down 4!
So much for that total freakout! I got on my ACTUAL scale I’ve been hiding in my brother’s room so I won’t use it, and I was at the same area and FREAKED out. I got up in the morning, after a long workout and not eating yet and it was at 3.8lbs less! I moved the scale all over the hard floor to make sure it wasn’t lieing (it’s new and pretty and awesome, btw). It wasn’t… so I built up the nerve to get on the Wii fit upstairs, and sure enough…in the 7 days since I last took a body test, I was down 3.5 lbs! Awesome. So somewhere between 3.5-3.8 which means FOUR lbs. That’s a whole lot. That’s like… a couple tubs of margarine I lost off my ass. It renewed my want to keep this up and keep at it.
Also, this has never happened to me before, even when I was super bulemic in high school….I THOUGHT I was starting my period that day a week or two ago, and even used tampons etc… and then NOTHING. Totally wasted a few there. I’ve never ‘spotted’ before, so I don’t know what to make of it. The only thing I can really think of is that I’ve only been really serious about this since the beginning of March, and super strict since the beginning of April, so maybe my body was just taking some time to respond to the changes and it’s throwing things off? I’m usually like CLOCKWORK and Lord knows I’m not gettin any, so I’m not pregnant. Sad. Anyway, point being, it’s WEIRD. I have 3 weeks until Cali and it BETTER think twice before it waits until then….or else we’ll be fighting, my body and I. I know a lot of people have recommended getting on birth control just to regulate because they LOVE it…but my mom had huge issues with pregnancy and I know my dad’s mother had at least one miscarriage, and my BIGGEST goal in my entire life is to have happy beautiful kids, so I’m trying at all costs to avoid having to use anything to further mess with that. A big part of this getting healthy idea is that in 3 years I might want to be having kids, and I don’t want to be overweight BEFORE I get pregnant. I want to be as ‘healthy’ as I can get (not skinny, that’s not important here) so that it’s more attainable. For some reason I’ve always since I was very young thought I would have problems having kids. It’s weird, don’t ask :p
In other news…The baby is just amazing! He’s so freaking cute. It takes all of my self control not to post pictures of him on here, because I haven’t asked his parents and blah. I just adore him is the point. He’s FINALLY napping… there was construction on the sidewalks right outside of his bedroom window so all morning naps were really a crap shoot. They had fresh cement across the street and it took a lot of willpower not to stick his adorable little foot or hand in it….I managed not to somehow. If it were my neighborhood/kid, I wouldve. Ha!
Gaby and I are speaking on the phone just like old times, but she cancelled our HUGEly important plans for the weekend and now wants to hang tonight and I think I’ll return the favor in order to get in a workout. It’s just not there. She’s still the same condescending type and it totally irks me. I’m totally listening to Bring it On right now. Isn’t it so a big part of anyone’s teenager-hood for someone my age?!
I took the baby for a 30 or so minute walk today… I FINALLY found an awesome loop that looks to be like…. a bit under a mile, so I could lap it two or three times easily per walk with the baby daily, more when I’m feeling adventurous or he’s asleep. I’m also debating doing one of her workout DVDs here in a minute. They get me pouring with sweat, but I only have my super cute bra on, for some reason there was no sports bra in my damn workout bag, and I don’t wanna get all gross in this one, it’s so cute! It’s got black cups/band with all these little super cute colored polka dots all over, and hot pink straps/trim. Isn’t that cute?! Ha…I’m weird.
