Is it wrong....
That I am amused that parts of the country not used to snow are getting buried in it and, for once, it’s not us. :)

I always get….”Aren’t you afraid you are going to get bulky???” with a look of horror on their faces. My response….”Aren’t you afraid you won’t??”

Weighed my self Tuesday monring and then today and I was down 1.2 pounds. I don’t put a lot of stock in the scale but of course I was happy to see the scale...

Lesson of the week...
…do not think that a family member or loved one admitted to the hospital is being cared for. I can not even begin to update you all on what has occured today. i had to leave work in an emergency and am now in a holding pattern on whether or not I am driving to Michigan tonight. My brother is trying to get a flight in to Detroit from Arizona. All of this because not one single person at...
OR not...
No feeding tube for dad today. And apparently he did not get his pain meds on time last night, so he told my brother he was CRYING because he was in so much pain! WTH?!?!?! Guess I will be going to Michigan again this weekend. And calling the nurses station every four hours around the clock to make sure he gets his pain meds AS SCHEDULED.
Feeding tube tomorrow. Or so they say.

Reader Johana recently directed me to this post on her blog. In it, she describes how she’s been eating well and working out regularly for the past few weeks. But she says she’s just not seeing any results:
Considering I am exercising more than I think I ever have continuously, I am eating much better and healthy foods. Which means, cutting a whole lot back on carbs,...
Update on Dad
Supposed to get his feeding tube today. I hate being here when things are happening there. Ugh moment.
Nutrition Boot Camp....
Okay so today I start a 5 week nutrition plan designed to help me see the difference some planned healthy eating can make in my workout routine. This has been brought about by the fact that I have been hardcore working out for almost a year ((strength training, cardio at least 4/week)) and I am still carrying about 25% body fat. Plus the fact that I am 40 years young makes lowering my body fat...
