So much happening/happened in my life.

I had surgery on my arm in August and I just got the cast off. My arm is weak and full of holes from the screws that were removed. I'm not sure how I'm going to be able to exercise yet. Lack of exercise + holidays + emotional eating = pounds gained.

My mother just passed away a 3 weeks ago so that's been a hell of an emotional roller coaster.

Buying a new house and closing in a few weeks.

Getting married in June. I refuse to be a chubby bride!!!!!

So my challenges right now:

Get diet back on track. Not usually a problem there. I'm going to start out with higher protein and fat with lower carb meals. I may do PSMF just to get a kick start.

Deal with stress - exercise and dropping some pounds usually helps.

Figure out how the fuck I'm going to exercise. I'm not allowed to lift for several months due to my arm and the risk of breaking it into itty bitty tiny pieces.

I always fared well in the past if I kept a journal. I feel accountable to track my eating and exercising.

My meals will be around 1400 calories per day.
I'll figure out the exercise soon I hope.

I know what you mean. I've still got a cast on my leg. I'd probably rather had the arm injured because then at least I could run and do cardio that way.

Hey there!!! Happy New Year.

Wow... so much going!

I'lll watch over ya

Happy New Year to you too!!!

You better watch. I need a kick in the ass! I feel like crap for not exercising for the past 4 months. Percocet was my best friend up until a few weeks ago. LOL!

Good luck to ya. I know what you mean when you have to start back at square one. It sucks, but you'll bounce back. Being able to do cardio, will definitely help with losing some weight. Keep us all posted and we'll help you stay motivated.

**DaMayor** · 01-03-2011, 12:46 PM

Jodi!

Sorry to hear about your Mother. As for the rest of the stuff, I am confident that you will "Jodi" your way through it.

PSMF, eh? Me too.....round two. OH I LOVE IT SO MUCH!!!!

Hey D!!!

Thank you.

How are you doing? I'm not starting PSMF just yet. I need to wait until football is over. That's a setup for failure for me.

LOL not exercising for the past 4 months is nothing to worry about. You were recovering from surgery. I was in the same boat when I had my Labrum repaired.

Wow the percs musta been hard to kick for being on that long. When I had my surgery I was on Oxy's for 2 days, and said fuck that no more. Gave my perscription of Oxy and percs back to the pharmacy.

Well you have a couple more weeks to celebrate. Then it will be over.

lol Packers

You know the drill to training. Take it easy and be smart.

I can see a Pat's - Packers SB but you know who I want to win

The pain was so horrendous that the percocet only took the edge off. I just stopped taking them when I didn't need them anymore. No side effects.

Training is going to suck

I want to do more than just cardio and bodyweight exercises but I just can't see what else I can possibly do. It's very aggravating!

Things going good with you?

Hi Jodi. I haven't met you yet. Nice to have you back.

I am so sorry to hear of your Mom. That is so sad.

Congrats on your wedding in June. My daughter is getting married in June too.

I wish you the best with your training.

Jodi...

I'm so very very sorry to hear about your mom. I bet you won't believe me....but I think about you often. (even though I let years go by without staying in touch)
I've missed you and I'm so sorry things have been rough - BUT I'm also really happy to hear you're getting married.

Tell him he's lucky even though he already knows

Truly miss you
