5 weeks and all is not well!!!

esmerelda · 04-25-2002, 07:24 AM

Just found out that there is a ball I have to attend on the Ist of June!!!!! Its a really formal occassion so it now appears that I have the challenge to kick my own butt into shape!!! The last 6 times that I have gone to this function I have been unable to drink or eat very much...and as for dancing...well lets just say...that on one occassion I had only 2 weeks to go before child #3 was due!!!! Its one of these things that you must be seen to be believed!!!! As a Commercial Dressmaker I've always made my own dresses....but this year I plan to splash out and go the whole hog...hell its the first time I have any cash to spend on myself!!!! So, not as to look like mutten dressed up as lamb (for those who dont know the phrase..it means looking like 60 but dressing up like a 25 yr old!!!).... I plan to get as close to trim...taught...and terrific as I can!!!!

So this is the last glass of wine for the next 5 weeks....no more crap food...and I'll try to get to the gym at least once a day!!!

There are no second chances.....you live like there is no tomorrow and there wont be!!!!

Stacey · 04-25-2002, 08:05 AM

Good luck!!! YOU CAN DO IT...and we are here to help you make it to your goal!!! Enjoy that last drink of wine!!!

esmerelda · 04-25-2002, 08:23 AM

I think there must be something wrong with the temp over here...cos that glass must have evaporated very quickly...but Im strong...I refuse to fill it!!!!! Thanks for your support....I think I may just need it!!!!

Stacey · 04-25-2002, 08:35 AM

Lol Girl!! Don't refill it!!!

My name is Stacey by the way..I will support ya anytime! Take care!!

dvlmn666 · 04-25-2002, 10:18 AM

good luck esmerelda.

It's gonna be tough, but we'll bug you to make sure you'll stick to it.

Fitgirl70 · 04-25-2002, 12:18 PM

Alright E....c'mon sista' post that food for the day.
Let's go!! The rest of us do it. We'll help you, you know we will.

Uh, and...you want to get to the gym at least once per day? Damn....I wish I COULD go MORE than once per day.

Preacher · 04-25-2002, 03:50 PM

5 weeks ? That's plenty of time ...
(if you don't look like a pregnant whale - which is fine, but not if you got to be 'ready' in five weeks).

So, get that butt on the stairmaster and shed those pounds!

Remember, we'll be standing behind you, shouting "Go Esmeralda, Go!!"
(in spirit, but we can be quite convincing even so ..

).

Remember, if someone can gain 30 lbs in a month, you can very likely obtain the body of your dreams in one week MORE.
(PS. I strongly suggest looking at the picture for Nicole day 1 & 30 - gosh!).

Miss LeDix · 04-25-2002, 05:31 PM

Essie, good luck! You should really post your workouts and daily diet...don't be scared!

Preacher, that is one strange project on that web page you posted.

esmerelda · 04-25-2002, 06:16 PM

Fotflmao!!!! Thanks guys...that last glass of wine was wonderful!!! No I didnt refill...the hubby drank the rest of it when I wasnt looking!!!!

Well its early morning over here...Im just about to start my bowl of oats....a cuppa tea....thats it!!!! Then I plan a lot of shyte running around...then the rest of the day may turn into a yell-fest!!! my kids are on school holidays...for the next week!!!!! Will come back tonight and yes girls....I will let you know what I've done good or bad!!!! I just love the thought of someone in spirit yelling at me on the stairmaster!!!!!

Miss LeDix · 04-25-2002, 06:34 PM

Well, let me be the first to comment on that breakfast, young lady!

Oatmeal..and nothing else? You need some protien to compliment those carbs...

esmerelda · 04-26-2002, 02:29 AM

I had a tea spoon of honey and 1/2 a cup of skim milk on my oats!!! And 1/2 an hour before I had my two hydroxycut pills!!!! So I found it difficult to finish my oats!!!! So far I've also downed 2 litres of water and had my protien shake !!!!!!

For lunch I had three slices (thin) of ham with a green salad followed by a great fresh squeezed OJ!!!!!!! Now Im hitting my second shake!!!!! I forgot to say that Im using Hydoxycut before each meal....and prior to going to the gym!!!!! As for exercise Im going to be doing a Tai bo class later on this evening!!!!!

Stacey · 04-26-2002, 08:01 AM

Hey girl, We are gonna be watching you!!!

Its a GOOD THING~!!
Now how ya doing this morning? Miss L is right, gotta have protein w/ those oats!!! Try eggwhites, thats what she makes me do!
GOOD LUCK, and have a great weekend!!

esmerelda · 04-28-2002, 09:33 AM

Well I've had a pretty sucky time at the gym!!!! Did a "Combat class" ..... but it should have been called the "Non-combat class"!!! All the instructor had us do was throw a couple of half assed punches in the air...a couple of side kicks and then we literally only bounced around from side to side to relieve the boredom between punches and kicks!!!! I walked out 1/2 way thru and got a better workout on the olyptical and the treadmill!!!! Im so used to doing Tai-bo...ahhh back to the home front for that one now!!!!

esmerelda · 04-28-2002, 09:42 AM

Todays menu!!!!

Breakfast = oats...with honey & skim milk (Very small amount!!)
And a 1 egg omlet washed down with a black tea!!

Mid morning = Protein shake.....and a banana!!!!

Lunch = Tuna and salad roll (wholemeal)
Washed down with fresh squeezed OJ!!!! (Next time Im going to pick out my own fruit to squeeze...ick..bitter as hell)

Mid arvo = Shake again....with an apple chaser!!!

Tea = Piece of steak....steamed rice and vegies!!!!!!!! YUMBO!!!!!

Now = shake before bed..........gotta early start tomorrow!!!!

Had to work this arvo....so the gym of course was closed when I was ready to go!!!!! I wish there was an all night gym around!!!!
Mind you....I've basically raced up and down at least 14 flights of stairs at work.....3 sets of 12 with each flight!!! Does that count for anything!!!! The others at work take the lift!!!! They recon' Im mad......till the last time they go up them to get to the office before we go home that is!!!!! Then there is an elephant stampede!!!!

There is, it's called the ALBOB cardio system. Just climb aboard and hold on tight.

esmerelda · 04-29-2002, 09:55 AM

Ahhhh...but how do I get to this gym???? Are the joining fees high??? Is there enough equipment there to keep me suitably interested???? Will I have to pay extra for a personalized trainer??? Can I get a "hands on" exercise plan?????

Thanks darlin' I knew you'd be there for me.....now what if I told you that........ermmmm.....maybe not here....right?!!!!

ALBOB · 04-29-2002, 11:28 AM

You already know the answers to all those questions.

Not here? Where would you suggest?

esmerelda · 04-29-2002, 11:32 AM

PM me and well discuss the particulars!!!!

esmerelda · 04-30-2002, 04:20 AM

Well this is a quick up date before I fly out the front door .... doing a spot of overtime at work!!! (Yet again!!!!) I did the right thing with the food yet again...no crap...only good healthy food...oats and protein shake...1/4 cup of mixed raw nuts with another protein shake for mid morning....steamed rice and vegies with 1/2 chicken breast (lunch)...then an apple for arvo break (did you know I can eat a medium sized apple in less than 5 min!!!! Just before the flight landed!!!) Dinner...well Im waiting for that to be cooked.....dunnoooo what but I'll eat it fast and run!!! Later on tonight...preferrably before 3 in the weee hours of our morning I'll have another shake!!!! Will jump on line when I return home!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

esmerelda · 05-06-2002, 07:23 AM

Whooowhooo....finally got back to the gym!!!! Kids went back to school today!!!!!!!! So the stress levels have dropped...the overtime at work is calming down...I hope!!! I've almost talked the other half into going to the UK for 2 weeks around October this year.....hell....lifes lookin' up!!!!!

Food wise......Missy D....You'll be happy to hear that I now have a protein shake with my breakie!!!! Snacks have been almost eliminated (Crave those Giant Cobra's...!!!! Especially on nightshift.....now Im down to raw mixed nuts!!!!! And not that many either...gets really filling!!!)

Lunch is always the same...tuna & salad wholemeal roll....and fresh OJ!!

Dinner tonight was pretty yumbo.... (In a Webba Kettle) roast beef...steamed vegies....with fresh fruit for afterwards!!!!

Gym wise...did a cardio class.....much better than the last one!!! This time an older male instructor took us....made me laugh..all I could hear was the "Drill Sargent" tone in his voice...and kept thinking of a certain "Spin" class!!!!! Came home all hot and bothered...from the work out!!!!

esmerelda · 05-06-2002, 08:54 AM

He was!!!!! And I said OLDER!!!! Errrmmmm ... wanna come take me for a spin class...we dont have them over here....could interesting!!!!

ALBOB · 05-06-2002, 09:12 AM

Take you for a spin? Kind of like a test drive, eh?

esmerelda · 05-06-2002, 09:30 AM

Hmmmm...mountain road.....could prove interesting........

esmerelda · 05-09-2002, 08:09 AM

Kay...been really good with the diet!!! Nothing strange or naughty!!! Had 3 days now of training at work...so to ease the tension....I've hit the gym harder than usual!!! Sitting listening to idiots try to tell you that although there is no right or wrong answer...your wrong!!!!! And I'm right!!!!! Yea...whatever!!!

Last three nights I've done purely cardio workouts...just to shock the system back into override!!! Will continue with cardio next week too....then back into serious weights!!!

Im reading my favourite book....Arnies Encyclopedia of BodyBuilding!!!! Man...when I manage to stop drooling over the pics...I actually read the print!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Getting heaps of great information....only now I must ensure I put it into action!!!

Got two nights of nightshift coming up...so I'll post when I can!!!

esmerelda · 05-13-2002, 11:56 PM

Well back to the real world again...heading out to the gym this evening...gonna push the poor body past the breaking point... hell its had its own hell these last couple of days...so may as well put it to some good use!!!! A friend has arrived over from the UK to stay for a couple of weeks, he's actually a really good mate of the hubby...so the two of them together is like two naughty school boys trying to get away with murder!!!! Drink!!!! Man, I wish I had shares in a grog shop!!!!! Anyway...due to the cost of meat in the UK...we appear to be having a lot of red meat over the next couple of weeks so ...... the gym is definitely going to be hammered...one to get away from these two....and two...to counter-act the food being eaten!!!!!

Ahhhhh...If I was a single girl again.....these two wouldnt stand a chance!!!!!!! But it just isnt the same when your married to one and the other is the god-father to your youngest!!!!!

esmerelda · 05-15-2002, 09:47 AM

Well ....here's an update!!!! Went out shopping with my sister and a girlfriend today...spent most of the day going from one formal dress shop to another.....great if your a skinny midget with a wallet full of cash!!!! Anyway...finally got the outfit for the Ball!!!! Now all I need is some sun to tan the fleshy bits on show!! Yep...plenty of bust for those who dont have a shoe fettish!!!!!

What got me going...tried on two sizes (getting smaller each time!!!) before I finally got one to fit........yippyy!!!!! You betcha... I've dropped a whole two dress sizes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! But the only problem is...my bust size has stayed the same..you guys will love that...but the waist and hips...not to mention thighs have all come down 2 sizes!!!! There is a God and She is a Woman!!!!!!

craig777 · 05-15-2002, 09:56 AM

Way to go Esmerelda. Keep it up.

What got me going...tried on two sizes (getting smaller each time!!!) before I finally got one to fit........yippyy!!!!! You betcha... I've dropped a whole two dress sizes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! But the only problem is...my bust size has stayed the same..you guys will love that...but the waist and hips...not to mention thighs have all come down 2 sizes!!!! There is a God and She is a Woman!!!!!!
	Smile at your enemies, it'll drive them crazy.........'cos that twinkle in your eye means your up to something!!!!
