2012;Man =don’t “Listen”; Eating healthy “stinks”
I had a wonderful relaxing weekend.
NO I LIED!!!!
Saturday was great. Rod worked on the Lexus and I went to a different gym for kickboxing and weights. I had a great class. Not my usual people and they don’t bring the same kind of intensity but I made my workout work nonetheless. Then I did weights and came home and very sore since then.
My cousin came by in the evening and we made girl’s night out at the casino. It took every ounce of self control to NOT give more then the $60 I lost. Truth be told, I was itching to get more money and play and play. But I kept thinking, I have Thanksgiving coming up, Christmas presents for the kids. I can’t afford to keep throwing money into the casino inferno. While my cousin took more money out to play, I held back and just chilled with her. I’m so glad I resisted!
Came home at 4am and ate a very early breakfast since I didn’t wake up till noon, it worked out ok. So wildcats, there I go eating in the middle of night/morning again. SO mad but hey, I was up all night. :( :( Still fighting though - tonight I hope to make it. 
Sunday, Rod and I can’t seem to get on the same page on just about everything. I say one thing, he hear something else. Well,it goes both ways, but man, it just go to me today. I tried to be understanding, but when I know I said A and he heard B, then we argue, no, I’m not ok with it. Movie night was the movie 2012. Really good movie to watch like a date night movie. But the arguing afterward killed the mood a bit. BOOOO HOOOOO HOOOOO!
Let’s talk about the stink!! OH MY GOD - My fart stinks like shi*!! I mean it smells bad. The healthier I eat the worse the smells get. I was hoping as my body adapt and after eating healthy pretty much for over a year now, I thought it would get better. But it’s not. The smell just gets worse and worse. I even used some gas pills, doesn’t work on me. I mean, it smells worse the Rod’s stuff.
Downside to eating healthy and cleaner for me, the constant gas passing. The constant running out of the room to pass gas and the constant bathroom breaks from all the water I drink. At night it’s the worse because I hate waking in the middle of the night to pass gas. Rod would say go ahead and let it go, but when it just takes over the room, he stopped suggesting it and relieved I leave to do the do.
Today it’s back to my basic - eating clean with lots of fruits, veggies, beans, chicken, water, green tea and water. 3000 calories because I have kickboxing, Step and upper body weights - 3 hours of fun fun fun!!!!!
Glad you had a great weekend
As for the stink….hmmm….I guess ur just destined to stink girl 
At least you’ll be thin tho! :p
I couldn’t help laughing at the way you described this
I have a very sensitive tummy and have to be careful what I eat; even some healthy food really doesn’t agree with my stomach! I just weed it out, try something else, but keep what is good enough to deal with the issues later!
I can’t stand feeling like someone is not listening to me, especially if I feel like I left little to no room for doubt or interpretation. Hope things are going better today.
Hey Michelle - great to see you back girl!!!
MJ, why thank you - I’m pretty good with the descriptions then? HEHE! Well, if I cut it all out and eat fatty crappy food, the stink goes away but then, I would feel far worse.
I wish there was an answer for your gas problem,. I have no cluewhat to tell you. I am glad you had fun at the casnio though and don’t worry about the eating. I don’t see it as a cheat. Ohterwise you won’t have time for breakfast.
I have no clue what to do about gas either other then to not eat….hehe.
Sorry but, your description of your gas problem had me in tears LOL. I have not had this problem. And men I say my husband hears me but he does not listen.
Kelly, ahhhhhh
Maybe it’s a good thing I sensored my blog. Men - I can’t figure them out girl!
Loved this! Well, the farting parts, not the fighting parts, at least! You crack me up…have a great time with Jim tonight!
Barrie has the worst gas in the world. He is a vegetarian and his brother calls him a compost. He is always leaving the room. Even last night I walked into the room and he shoed me away.
Jessica - ahhhh I’m laughing with you hehe!
Jennifer - I Have a gym membership that allows access to over 400 gyms nationwide.
Barrie is my lost brother. OH WOW - he’s a vegan - how inspirational!
LOL, Nancy you crack me up
Just glad that smells can’t travel thru the computers…. well not yet at least 
Glad you stopped yourself in the casino
Oh my goodness! I was rolling reading this! I have some of those issues when I eat bad. Went to Mcdonalds with my sister this weekend, didn’t eat too bad, but stomach is not used to the grease, so the bathroom was my friend. But noooobody else was. As for the nighttime eating, I try brushing my teeth right after supper, turn the lights off in the kitchen,and keep gum on hand if I feel the urge to munch. It works most of the time.
lol I read that part to my mom! my dad has his own stomach issues and gas X doesn’t always work for him either…he prefers the soft chew ones but if you get him the wrong ones, he gets mad
I think that unhealthy food can cause gas too though? I remember when I was younger that for some reason ice cream made me sick to my stomach. I figured I was lactose intolerant, but milk did not bother me. So I just cut down on the amount of ice cream I ate and the frequency so that helped.
So I guess what I mean is that unhealthy (even fast food) can be stinky too sometimes!
all i can say is. YOUR ASS IS CRAZY!! gotta love you tho! lol
hahahaha that is too much! How much fiber do you eat? Maybe it’s too much! hahaha
Sorry about all the fighting, that is always hard. I am going to zumba tonight! YEA
LOL Holly - you were reading my blog and I was reading yours. I eat a lot of fiber! YAY! Have fun with ZUMBA!
hahaha
Yes, send your man my way so he can be my personal shopper. I need help!!!
SOLD!!! Holly, You can have him for a few days. LOL
I’m so glad you had a good weekend, except the arguing with Rod.
Girls nights are so much fun but I’m so glad that you made yourself stop instead of putting more money into the casino. I’m sure that it is so easy to do that. I’ve never really been a gambler, but we don’t really have many casinos in town. I hope that you and Rod get back on the same page soon. It really stinks and is a big downer when you and your significant other are arguing. 
I’m glad you kept up with eating healthier and exercising. Why did you end up going to a different gym?? You cracked me up when you were talking about your stinky farts. I completely understand though. When I’m eating healthier I have the same problem. Have you thoguht about asking a doctor about it just to see if they have any suggestions on how to not be as gas-y?
Well nothing new here! You and I are the gas twins, but we already knew that, didn’t we? LOL Maybe you and Rod need to sit and really talk a bit, or maybe take a day or two apart.. something to try and get you through this fights. I’m like that with Chris right now, just mad at him all the time for no reason…. but I think it’s cuz I’m not working and home all the time right now.. he’s just doing my head in!! UG!!
OMG…I just laughed out loud…Talking about your farts…LOL…I out fart Brian by a lonnnng shot…Never ever thought it might be because of my healthier eating!!! WOO HOO…I am gonna blame that now instead of the dog…
It’s true healthy eating causes smellier farts. Maybe when Rod isn’t listening closely you can rip one in order to get his attention. Ha ha!
OMG, still laughing. Way to funny! My man has the worst smelling farts ever, I want to leave the room when he farts. I’ve noticed mine are getting smellier as my eating gets better also, and they can leave at any time. I use peppermint to help my gas, not sure how much it helps but it makes my indigestion go away.
Gah, I hate it when men either arn’t listening enough, or just don’t understand. Then you try and explain it, and it makes it worse! Men!
maybe you should mix some less healthy with the healthy and have farts that only smell half as bad?? I like chelleybones suggestion! I well timed fart would get Rod’s attention!!!
Works like a charm.
Really though, have you guys ever tried “active listening” where you take turns speaking and then sort of repeat back what the other person said? Or, like I do when I really want to be heard, I write a letter.
Lmao! Nancy!!I do it too!! My farts rival Ted’s!!He even gets impressed, lol!! It is agood thing I sit on an end cubie at work, ’cause sometimes they fly out!
I am sorry you and Rod are having some troubles. Men, huh? Love em, but sometimes we need a break, maybe you do too. Tedis going out of town next week, to see his daughter, and I am looking forward to some “me” time. Hang in there girl!
I just walked in the door from seeing 2012, yep great movie!
I have to admit I got a little laugh outta the gas thing. I think its because at my house,as my husband says,”women arent allowed to fart”…lol Like we could hold it in forever.
Men & women do have some issues with communication. Its hard to have to say something…and the explain & explain. men hear what they wanna hear..but we as women do it too. Just try to relax
love you
I needed that laugh! I am sure you and Rod made up?
