100% me again. Workout on schedule, now I have to attack my eating habit
Happy Monday!
This is one of the better weekends that I can remember. Albeit my Aunt Flow is here for a visit, I don’t mind seeing her once a month. It’s my other friend, PMS, who knows how to come for a few days and terroize my household. 
But she’s gone and I’m happy. Rodney acted like a bitch for the past couple of weeks as he was dealing with finals. That coupled with money woes, car problems, family problems..etc. made a hell of a ride. So this weekend we spent quality time together and it feels like the way it was when we first met.
Busy week coming up. Sunday will be our one year anniversary.
Saturday is my homegirl’s baby shower; my girlfriend from high school. It’s a co-ed party so Rodney is attending too. She hasn’t seen me since February, when I was almost 30 lbs heavier. The 40+ people attending have not seen me since February. I’m a bit anxious because I know it’ll be mixture reaction. Some people are cool but many will hate on me. Been experiencing this with my cousin since her last visit; it’s like they can be happy for your but at the same time not because people don’t always like to see change. The same girl with the baby asked me to be her bridesmaid when I lost my first 50 lbs in 2006. Well, we were suppose to lose weight together for her wedding; I was personally training her but she fell off. I went through with my routine and lost another 15 but she didn’t lose any. For whatever reason, I got dropped as a bridesmaid for a silly reason; but in my heart I believe she didn’t feel comfortable with me being smaller then she was when throughout our lives I was always heavier then her and all my friends.
So here I am going get together with my friends where weight going to be at the forefront of conversations. Oh Lord, throw in some old-school Asian parents is bad because they’ll criticize you to know end. I’m anxious about seeing my friends and people and meeting new ones. I know people are going to ask me a million and one questions about weightloss and stuff. Even the skinny 105lb toothpick will want tips on how to lose weight. I have to put up a front and just do it. I find it’s easier to talk about weightloss and exercise on this site because I know many of you can relate to my weight problem. But I have a hard time being as free flowing with people face to face.
Anyhow, today is a beautiful Monday. We actually had a tiny thunderstorm, if you can even call a couple thunders and sprinkles on my car a T-storm, but any change in the weather is good. I get sick of it being sunny all the time.
My routine today - I’m going to really track my food today. I’ve been slacking a bit. Other than that, I have my 2 classes with my favorite instructor - kickboxing and advanced yoga. My goal is to get 30 push-ups in throughout the day. I know I’ll be doing about 50 or more push-ups tonight.
Good luck!!
Hey Pretty Lady, I am proud of you. Your ambition to increase your health for the better is contagious. When you attend the party hold your head up high. There will always be haters in this world. However, on the other spectrum, there will be people who will be inspired by you.
I think you will do fine at the party. The good thing, is it’s co-ed. So you will have your man with you for support.
Old skool Asian parents? Well, just grin and bear it. We can’t change them but we shall love parents forever.
You have a dynamic day and know this Buddy really loves you to pieces.
Good luck, you can do it. You can be proud of yourself, and if people want to be jealous, it is their loss. Sad, that people get like that, but they do. Glad you had such a good weekend with Rodney, I think Ted and I need a weekend like that. have a good one!
Thank you ladies for your support.
Yep, I’ll be mindful and only focus on those who are positive!
TOM has now packed his bags up and moved on out again for the month…off to harass some other ladies I bet.
It is nice being back to myself and moving on with the weight loss again lol. Glad to hear that you’re doing well! 
I know you and I are so much alike that it must drive you mad when things are getting in the way of you feeling like you’re getting in a GREAT work out. I too am working on my push ups. We’ve got to be able to do them for my karate classes, and we are NOT allowed to do em’ girlie style lol. I can do them…but not as good as I’d like and not as many as I’d like. Right now I can do 8 at one time, and I don’t go as far down as I’d like….so working on em’.
Have an AWESOME workout week!
TOM is on his way to visit me as well. Keep up the good work.
Sounds like TOM is a busy guy huh? I know what you mean about getting mixed reactions. Right there with ya! STay tuned in the forums because once Kama sets up the new cheer forum she is also going to announce the inner team challenge for the week!
