*phew* yesterday was rough and i'm not kidding.
i don't know if i was overtired, ate too much roughage, stressed out or what, but i felt like i had been dragged through forty miles of bad road.
better right now, so i'm hoping to get a lot accomplished today.
****
and just a little word on the whole eating well/exercise thing...
the atkins diet is not for me. i'm a carnivore, for real, and i like vegtables...but no carbs SUCKS ASS. i just don't feel well eating massive amounts of protien and nothing else, so i'm going to have to re-think this whole thing. the girlchild is doing well ( except for the two chocolate covered cherries, small bag of chili fritos and some animal crackers that i couldn't find in the atkins book ) but i think i might be too old to ride that pony.
the three of us had done atkins about a year and a half ago...the bean lost 35 pounds, the girlchild lost 55, and even though we all ate the same things and did the same workout ( there's strength in numbers, this is true ) during the same time frame i lost SIXTEEN LOUSY POUNDS. to work that hard and see those kinds of results was disheartening, to say the least.
to lose a little bit of weight would be great, but not for asthetic reasons. i could care less what i look like, to be perfectly honest. the knight adores my curves, but i really would like to lose some for health reasons. not a lot; as i've mentioned here before, too much and i get all wonky in the head.
i did watch the "Biggest Loser" marathon on Bravo and was very impressed with everyone's motivation and results. of course, they were in a controlled environment for three months, complete with personal trainers, exercise equipment, meals prepared, monetary rewards, prizes, support...well, how hard can it be? not that they didn't work hard, mind you, but i'm just saying.
though i did have to wonder about the whole mental and emotional ride...they never did show much about that part, in my opinion. you have people who have been overweight for a long time...anybody else wonder about WHY they got that way and how they feel now they don't have the fat to hide behind?
'cause that's what it is, you know. a wall to hide behind.

okay, i best stop rambling here and get something accomplished.
maybe i'll eat a muffin.
