Well, if you guys haven't heard, Justin (Eggs) and I are getting married Yep, I've got an amazing Leo diamond solitaire on my ring finger The date is June 17th, and well, I plan to look amazing that day

So, this will be updated here and there, maybe not everyday, but I want my old peeps here to be able to follow along as I get ready to walk down the aisle

Unfortionately I'm back in Sweden, and Justin and I will be apart for 3 and a half months before he comes to spend Christmas break here. So guys, help me stay positive and focused on what I need to do (finish up School!!), I need it

So I guess this is the first IM wedding

I am pleased that you have a new goal, this is (IMO) one of the most important aspects of training...
Without goals, we have no grasp of improving ourselves

Here is my problem, and it is with, the "Wedding Factor"

I am Soooooooo sick of watching these bridal diets, where the REAL
ultimate goal, is having your picture taken in that dress and in a bikini
on the honeymoon -

Please make your goal realistic, so that you can stay happy and healthy
long after this wedding is over... Don't be Bridezilla -
Obviously you don't know me very well I understand that you're new here and you haven't followed my journey here through the years, so you don't really know what you're talking about

I do have a goal, and right now the focus is on looking good on my wedding day, yes. I plan on looking hot for the rest of my life, so don't you worry As I said, you obviously don't know me or what I'm about at all. I've had a long history of journals here since 2001 and I've reached several of my goals. Not one of them has been about crash diets, that's not what I'm about. My fiance and I met on this forum, which is why I wanted to start a journal here so all my friends here could follow along. But since you're not one of them and just have negativity to contibute with, I suggest you leave this journal alone. Thanks

I don't know if you bothered to notice, but, I did not direct any of those comments at you, or your situation..

I was generalizing, but apparently you weren't looking for me to actually explain myself...
I further think that we simply have a communication difficulty here,
Because I don't exactly remember having such hateful thoughts -


I have retracted my explaination...
My regards to your event...

Good day to you

Get the fuck out of her journal if you dont like it dip shit.



Posted by: Eggs

Oh, and btw... love the journal honey

I'm glad you're excited about the wedding, but I think you already looked fantastic when we were together a couple weeks ago! I'm looking forward to reading your journal and helping you keep a positive spirit in the weeks and months to come



Posted by: Jenny

Thanks fiance No need to use harsh words



Posted by: Eggs

Well, I mean... you've been at the site and had many journals here before. Along with which, you have quite a few less posts per day average than he does, which means you tend to stay away from the open chat and stick to worthwhile stuff.

If he cared so much he should have sent you a PM, instead of putting a stupid little roll eyes icon in your journal. Anybody with an active mind might realize thats not a proper or respectful thing to do right after someone gets engaged. Some might even say that a person that does that could be called an "asshole".

You even said at the start of your journal that it was to help you stay positive and on task with school during our time apart. I mean, how is that in any way insinuating that you're going to do a crash diet?

Monkey, I dont usually have a problem with you... but I think in something like this you should think more before you act as you did.



Posted by: Jenny

Haha, good points there Eggsie baby I miss you



Posted by: Jenny

Okay, so today's diet and workouts:

Totals:
1478 cals
197g protein56%
57g carbs 17%

I think that as the first IM wedding, you guys should have a second ceremony in October during the Mr. Olympia in Vegas. That way, IM members could attend.

That would be so much fun But we're already having a second ceremony in Chicago

I really miss the old IM, assholes like buildingup wouldn't come yawn in my journal back then.
This journal is on the verge of being over! Why the hell are people like that, I don't understand

Posted by: Cowbell

You know what really weird....I didnt even know eggs and jenny were a couple let alone getting married.....justin and jenny....Well congrats, hope you guys have a long and solid marriage.

P.S. if you dont mind me asking...how old are both of you?



Posted by: Eggs

Heya Cowbell

Yeah, we've been together for a tad more than two years. Kinda funny it got started on IM

I'm 26 and Jenny is 21. Hey, what can I say, the cradle never looked better

I actually work with a guy who is from Florida but met his current wife online and moved here....kinda cool when things like that work out (not moving from Florida to the midwest but the internet thing)

P.S. do you both live close to each other or is someone going to move?



Posted by: Eggs

I live in Virginia currently, and Jenny is in Sweden. She's Swedish...

So we don't live too close. She came here last year for an exchange year with her school and that was really nice. Sure beats the whole flying back and forth thing, even though I really enjoy Sweden and traveling.

We'll probably move down to Florida next year after the wedding

I'm usually not a huge fan of the whole online dating thing... but we didn't come here looking for someone, it just worked out that way over the years. Pretty cool how life works out.



Posted by: Jenny

Cowbell, yes, it is a pretty funny story We met on musclemagazine in 2001 and then the whole gang moved here in 2002.. We were friends for years and then met for the first time in 2003 It's been quite a journey I'm so happy



Posted by: GoalGetter

Jenny, Eggs: Congratulations to you both!

Jenny, you are already pretty hot and beautiful so anything else you do can only make you even more so for your big day!

Good luck through the next few months, finishing up school, and preparing for the wedding. Time will fly and you will get through this short time apart before you know it!



Posted by: Jenny

Thanks GG You're so sweet
The goal is close and that's what keeps me going

Maybe you and your honey will be IM couple number two to get hitched

What city in Florida? It's really nice down here.



Posted by: Cowbell

I am so proud of you kids... ...I am a sucker for happy endings.
If you want to look real good...get married in fort wayne indiana. It is considered the dumbest and most unhealthy city in the whole nation....YES! not that you need it because you look very lovely...(I am not hitting on her eggs, just complimenting )
seriously though Jenny, if things dont work out ............



Posted by: Jenny

Brogers, somewhere on the west side of Florida

Cowbell, thanks I'm a sucker for happy endings too. You should see our engagement video, you'd cry like a baby I still do after seeing it 100 times
Haha, thank you for the compliment But there's no way I'm leaving Justin after he gave me this gorgeous ring

Its hot down here; get your windows tinted and find a place with a garage or carport- Nothings worse than being drenched in sweat by the time your air conditioning cools down the cab. Aside from that its not a bad place; some people love it and some people hate it(Primarily people who have never had to shovel snow off their roof )
Also, Congratulations you two! You're both awesome people so, while I doubt you'll need it, I wish you the best of luck!



Posted by: Jodi

Just wanted to pop in and say hello sweets and tell you again how happy I am for you and Justin!





Posted by: Jenny

Chain, thanks for the advice And for the well wishes

Jodi, thank you darling I miss you, you should come around more often!!

How did eggs propose....I had a really good idea (actually a couple) but I dont plan on getting married until after college so I am sure I will remember one of them by that time . I probably would get teary eyed....I like romantic comedies WAY too much....I always get choked up at the end.

Well the proposal was really special.. it was the perfect proposal! We were in downtown chicago all day, having a great time down at Navy Pier and all that. Then we went to dinner with his sister and her husband, this amazing italian place It was soooo yummy!! Then we went for a walk and we went to this amazing beach just north of navy pier. I wanted to take a pic with my digital camera for my parents to see. Then I decided to take a video clip with it... In the middle of it Justin goes down on one knee and propose I was SHOCKED.. Seriously, I fell to the ground.. but kept FILMING, without even knowing it I held it in the perfect angle on my face. We were both crying.. He had to ask three times because I was so shocked I couldn't speak Aaaah, it brings tears to my eyes just thinking about it.. Then he told me he had a limo coming to pick us up an hour and a half later. So the two of us went back to navy pier and had some drinks and just enjoyed ourselves.. It was like a movie, I've never been happier.. I told random people on the street that we just got engaged It was perfect.. perfect place, perfect setting, perfect words, perfect ring.. but most of all the perfect guy for me

I'm so happy

Andrea, HEY STRANGER!! How are you darlin?? So good to hear from you! AJ is getting married too?? Woah, that's huge!! Tell her to come visit and tell me all about it! I miss both of you!! :hear: Please come by more often

Cowbell, I guess I am getting old Not!
Yeah, I will update this journal about fitness stuff. Something really weird happened to me yesterday, will start a new post about it..



Posted by: Jenny

So this was posted on another board last night.. That's why it's in "today" tense:

So I felt a little weird today after teaching spinning. I worked hard for sure.. I never notice how hard I work while I teach, then afterwards I'm wiped out and am one big puddle of sweat. Well I did feel how hard I worked today, cause I turned the resistance up too high and my legs were burning.. It just doesn't feel as hard when I'm trying to motivate others..
Well anyways, I had a great class and my spinners were real happy. Then I had a piece of an orange. My gym always give people a piece of fruit afterwards on a nice tray (cute idea!), but I usually don't eat any. I did today, but I don't know if this had any impact on me. Well, I talked to my boss for a while and then I noticed my right eye was all messed up.. I could only see with half of it it seemed, like I couldn't see far to the side at all. I had a "blinking vision", I don't know how to explain it better. But almost as when you look into a light for too long and then see dots of color, but it was blinking and didn't go away. It was really strange.. Well I biked home and started feeling even more weird when I got inside (maybe because I was getting myself worked up). It didn't go away but seemed to get worse and I felt dissy. My mom told me to lay down and I did for like 10 mins, same thing. Then my mom got worried and told me she wanted to take me to the hospital, so I went in the shower to get the sweat off me. Well, then I started feeling better.. I had some carbs (bran flakes and milk with half a banana, quickest and easiest, also yummy) and my egg whites.. So this scared me though.. Did just exhaust myself? I did eat well today and didn't skimp on food.. It was really really scary, I could hardly see!
Once when I was in Greece and I was about 14, something similar happened but way worse. I hadn't been eating much (I was basicly borderline anorexic back then) and been at the beach all day not drinking enough. I had a sip of sprite (this was before I started drinking diet stuff) and I lost my vision.. it went pitch black and my chest area hurt. Scariest thing in my life. My mom freaked out, I was all pale and yelled that I couldn't see anything.. People came up to me and poured water on me and what not. One doctor there (a tourist as well) said something about the sugar impacting me after being in the sun so much..hmm?? I know I am very sensitive to fluctuating sugar levels, very sensitive. But I don't get this.. Can vision have anything to do with sugar levels? Could something have happened today that impacted my vision? Can just exhaustion make people lose eye sight? I didn't feel like I worked harder than I usually do.. I have a headache now, and felt really weak after getting my vision back, but that could just be me getting myself worked up and imagining things.
Hmm, maybe I should post this in the health section. I just think this is interesting. And I would like to know if it's something I should worry about. Anyone out there with some knowledge?

So I read this and it makes a lot of sense:
http://www.bobshowto.com/temporary-vision-loss.htm

My mom has suffered from migranes since her early 20ies, really really bad ones.. They are hereditary. This "migraine of the optic nerve" the guy was talking about in his article makes sense.. I have a head ache now, but not a bad one, so I don't think it's a migrane.
Well anyways, I'm off to bed. I'm going to go see a doctor about this and have it figured out. After all we have free health care (pretty much) over here and I would rather get to the bottom of this.

--------------------------------------------------------
Today I called and got an appointment with my doctor. I got an appointment on the 16th of september Yep, more than two weeks away, she was all booked. I think I'll be fine though, if I start feeling anything again I'll call and get an emergency appointment or if it's really bad just go to the emergency room.



Posted by: IainDaniel

YEah I read half way through it and the first thing that popped into my mind was a migrane. My wife has very similar experiences when she gets a migrane. Nothing much you can do that I know of, just rest and maybe some Advil for migranes



Posted by: Jenny

Thank you Daniel I think it very well could be a migrane. Head is hurting today, but I feel pretty good It was just really scary yesterday when I couldn't really see.. Thanks for caring



Posted by: Yanick

you know i got high yesterday and started thinking about shit like i tend to do when i'm stoned. i thought of the both of you and was in awe of the miracles of modern technology. two people living half way around the world from each other, meeting and falling in love, its just awesome!

congratulations to the both of you and good luck in your marriage. oh yeah and jenny, good luck with that whole vision thing. must be some scary stuff, i once got hit in the face with a handball and couldn't see for like 10 mins, i thought i was gonna be blind for life cause the ball caught my good eye (i'm almost blind in my left eye, can't even read the biggest letter on the eye charts) and it was a scary 10 min. go get yourself checked out, make it a priority.

Are you still high? You are too funny Yan, really made me laugh It is pretty awesome, isn't it? We're very happy It sucks to be apart right now, but both of us need to finish up school.. So, just gotta get through it.

I really don't think the vision thing is something to really worry about. It probably was just a migraine thing. But you're right, making a doctors apointment a priority is a smart thing. I'm going in two weeks, it was the earliest appointment my doctor had Sorry about your handball incident

Thanks for your concern and sweet words And take it easy on the drugs



Posted by: Cowbell

I thought it might be sugar because my mom is borderline diabetic and she use to pass out if she didnt eat and sometimes just because....but after that article...not so sure its even close to the same thing. I also got hit in the eye with a baseball....the threads cut into the skin around my eye and when I touched it all I felt was blood and when people looked at me I saw a not so good look on their faces....that worried me...could not open my eye for about 1 hour....thought I lost my eye. It is amazing what we take for granted until we are close to losing it.



Posted by: ncgirl21

Hey sweets!! Have you looked at dresses yet?? Yuppers, Jen is getting married too- she's moving to Mississippi. I'm going to see her in either late October or early November. She's doing super though!!

Although what happened yesterday does sound like it could be a migraine, I think it could also maybe be from lack of carbs. Do you eat carbs before your workouts? What kinds? When your at the doctor tell them to check you for vertigo as well, it can make you very dizzy and make it difficult to fucus. I have medicine for migraine's and vertigo. It's easy to control, just make sure you always have your migraine medicine handy. I've only had two, but the first one was so bad I went straight to the doctor so hopefully this is just a one time thing for you. Feel better soon!



Posted by: Jenny

Cowbell, sorry to hear about your mom. I don't have diabetes and have had my blood sugar checked periodicly. You're right that it can affect the eyes though, good point.

Andrea, Oh I've looked at dresses alright I think I've found THE dress How exciting with Jen!!
I didn't know you had problems with migraines, I'm sorry darlin! I eat carbs, but I've been low carbing quite a bit, actually upped them just after this incident to 100g a day. Thank you for caring

Posted by: Jenny

Yeah, I'm back in Sweden One year left here until I graduate! I was able to transfer all the credits I took at the US university during my exchange year, huge relief! They tried to mess with me and telling me that I might have to take a couple of more classes, which went against what they said before I left I straightened it out though
I'm going to see Justin in 27 days Found a really good price for a ticket and went for it SO EXCITED!

Justin and I were thinking about moving to Colorado for a while, before we changed our minds. Are you still selling real estate there?

Posted by: Jenny

Hey guys!

The honeymoon is in Riviera Maya, Cancun.. here: http://www.secretsresorts.com/RivieraCancun/index.html It's a couples only resort, so no stinkin kids or college sorority/frat meets

Premi, Tahiti would have been awesome, but SO expensive! This one was a little over $3000 for both of us (including flight). It's going to be AMAZING!!

Arch, thanks for stopping by and thanks for the congrats

Kerri, hey sweets! Thanks for stopping by! We're very happy and excited

NT, the wedding will take place in sweden and both sides will be here, but just his immidiate family not all his relatives unfortionately. I bought my dress!

Okay, time to go make some coffee Today is my birthday



Posted by: Burner02

Hey hottie!
Happy B-Day! Mine...is on Thursday.....
Viva la Cancun!

I wanted to take a pic with my digital camera for my parents to see. Then I decided to take a video clip with it... In the middle of it Justin goes down on one knee and propose I was SHOCKED.. Seriously, I fell to the ground.. but kept FILMING, without even knowing it I held it in the perfect angle on my face. We were both crying.. He had to ask three times because I was so shocked I couldn't speak Aaaah, it brings tears to my eyes just thinking about it.. Then he told me he had a limo coming to pick us up an hour and a half later. So the two of us went back to navy pier and had some drinks and just enjoyed ourselves.. It was like a movie, I've never been happier.. I told random people on the street that we just got engaged It was perfect.. perfect place, perfect setting, perfect words, perfect ring.. but most of all the perfect guy for me

I'm so happy
Hello You!

I just popped in to see how you old IMers are doing.
I am so happy for Eggs and you.
After reading this proposal story i cried.

We (Aaron and i) are planning on heading back to Canada in June of 06. Perhaps we could make a detour to see you getting hitched

Rumor has it that i might also have to start a wedding planning diary

Happy Birthday. Sounds like a wonderful honeymoon. You two will have alot of fun.
