What the hell has happened to Fitgirl?

Fitgirl70 · 07-13-2004, 04:12 PM

Well, I'm not sure if I even know.

I haven't worked out since the first of July. I almost feel burned out. I have no motivation - I used to have motivation, but I don't know where it went. I think it all started when Victor left and I started having so much trouble with Gold's.

I haven't gained back too much weight -- only about 6 lbs. I'm still following a good diet. More fruits and veggies now, still high protein, but having cookies and little treats every now and then.

We have decided that we are going to go through with the IUI. I will have my Day-10 Sono tomorrow morning at 7am. Then sometime between tomorrow and next week, I will probably have my insemination. Hopefully it works. I'm saying my prayers. I'm not getting my hopes up, but I would like it to work. I think lately, getting pregnant has become more of a priority to me than anything else in my life. I'm not obsessive, but I'm trying to do everything in my power in order to get pregnant.

I will keep this new journal about my health! I wonder if I'd become to mindful of food and muscles and planning my workouts than I have with health.

I'm sure I'll get my motivation back - to get back into the gym -- I've quit Gold's and have joined at the new LifeTime Fitness that opened here. I plan to get back to my workouts -- when is the question of the hour.

Thanks for letting my spill my guts. I'd wondered if I would even come back.

JLB001 · 07-13-2004, 04:13 PM

RoCk79 · 07-13-2004, 05:25 PM

Stacey · 07-13-2004, 10:38 PM

Hey honey!!

I'm saying my prayers for you!! I hope we both get pregnant this month!! I know where your coming from...I'm trying to make it priority--but not obsessive! Ugg! Good Luck sweetie!! Oh You know - we have a lifetime fitness here now---It's too far for me to drive to - well not too bad- 20 minutes.

It just opened. I have been meaning to call you and tell you that. You will get your motivation back, you have just been a busy working girl!

Hugs to you and glad your back posting!!

Love Ya!

Jenny · 07-14-2004, 12:48 AM

Good to have you back Tammy

I hope the baby thing will work out, you're in my thoughts

Fitgirl70 · 07-14-2004, 08:08 AM

OK, I had my Day 10 Sono this morning and I already have a right side dominant follicle. They want me to go ahead and start testing with the ovulation kit tonight. I have a meeting at 3, but then can go get the kit after that. I may go get the kit at lunch, not sure yet.

I had a yogurt smoothie on the way to the dr's office and an apple this morning on the way to the office, then coffee when I got here.

Gotta get some work done.

Stace....that LifeTime is amazing girl. I can't wait to go workout...probably tomorrow morning.

Stacey · 07-14-2004, 10:29 AM

Hey Tam! Thats good news about the right side dominant follicle!

mmmm I love yogurt smoothies-just wish they were low carb. I'm sure there is one out there.

Have a great day! Have fun at lifetime fitness tomorrow- I'm going to check the website and see if they are hiring~

greekblondechic · 07-14-2004, 11:06 AM

Welcome back!!!!!!! Just take a little break and keep eating clean and slowly you will regain your motivation. And next time don't overdo it on the cardio honbuns!

Fitgirl70 · 07-15-2004, 10:46 AM

Thanks everyone.....

Been doing pretty good. Had my second O monitor today, still nothing.....I'm sure it will come by Sunday or Monday.

Been doing pretty good with foods. I had Special K and a banana this morning, but I had 5 cups of coffee

I feel like crap with the allergies today!

I think I'm going to have a veggie burger today and some fruit. I have a meeting at 12 that I'll have to eat while I'm in the meeting, should be okay though -- don't you think?

Hope everyone is doing great today!

Fitgirl70 · 07-16-2004, 09:10 AM

Today is a pretty good day! I actually woke up this morning and thought, "I think I'm getting my motivation back....I'd like to go to the gym". I didn't go, but I think I might go in the morning.

I had coffee and a half of a bagel w/ pb on it. Having some water right now and will probably plan on having fish and veggies for lunch.

Hope everyone is doing great today -- TGIF!!!

RoCk79 · 07-27-2004, 10:55 AM

Hey girl, just got back from vacation, it was a blast, how are you doing?

Fitgirl70 · 07-27-2004, 12:02 PM

Hi Rock, how are you? Where did you go on vacation?

All is well here with me. Working working working away -- I got a promotion so I'm trying to settle into my new position. YEAH ME!!!

All is well here......btw peeps, I will find out on Friday whether or not we are expecting.

Love to all! I miss you all!!

RoCk79 · 07-27-2004, 03:45 PM

I went to Daytona Flordia for a week, it was fun, in ways and ya, I'm glad I'm home tho, that kind of sucks when your glad your home right? Hmmm..Maybe it was just alright. LOL Anyway, I'll say another prayer hope your going to be expecting, I actually applied for a position at work, which would of been AWESOME, but get back from vacation and find out that they decided to hire a new employee, instead of rather then moving someone internal to the position, so that kind of sucked!!! Oh well, glad to hear your doing well....

Fitgirl70 · 07-30-2004, 05:00 PM

Sounds like you had a good time. I hope you did anyway. I would love to go to Florida for a while.

Well, we are not expecting. I am very disappointed. I don't know if I should be pissed or sad. I guess I am a little of both right now.

Going to dinner tonight and then to see The Village. Anyone seen it yet? I'll let you know what it's like.

Hope everyone is having a great Friday.....have a good weekend.

Congrats on the promotion!!!!!!!!

JLB001 · 07-31-2004, 03:19 PM

augh.....I'm sorry Tamtam. I thought for sure you would be.

Fitgirl70 · 08-03-2004, 03:55 PM

We are going to try again! I actually have my day-10 sono set up for the 10th at 7:15. I hope all is well. I will report in later.

On other fronts, I'm doing well......eating okay, I guess. Working out ......very little....just--can't--seem--to--get--my--groove--back!!!! DAMN!!!!

Stacey · 08-03-2004, 06:53 PM

You will get it back sweetie- I know you will- You just have a lot on your plate right now--Don't stress about it.

Good Luck with the next Sono

Fitgirl70 · 08-06-2004, 12:13 PM

Hi everyone....things are pretty good here. Is everyone enjoying their Friday?

I think I might actually take myself to the gym in the morning. And I definitely am going to get back on track come Monday. Two of the other girls here in my office and I are working with each other to get back on track and lose some weight. I've gained back probably 10 lbs.....need to get it off too!!!

C'mon now peeps......I need some SERIOUS MOTIVATION FROM YOU ALL!!

Hey Fitgirl, I hope that you will attack that gym on monday, even if the girls from work don't do it. You look real good in your pictures and you know you have done this before, so, go for it...

Go watch that show in Arlignton this weekend! That is serious motivation there! Always puts me back in the right frame of mind after seeing a show.

I could send you a tiny tiny suit and say that is the one you HAVE to get your butt in for your show.......
