Babsie's Summer Slam

[BabsieGirl]

Hi Babs. I'm sorry about the PCOS. Stay tough!

How's the pup? I wish I could get a puppy.

Will def. do my best to stay head strong through this ordeal. I'm sure there will be days I'll need to dig deep within - that's when you all come in handy

The puppy is great!!! She's starting to eat more (which is good - was worried for a minute.) She adores the girls - which is another plus. The thing I cannot WAIT to be over with is...........STOP PEEING IN THE HOUSE!!! We have pee pads ALL over the place and she chooses to go EVERYWHERE else BUT, the pee pads. Oy!!! Thank goodness for hard wood floors and bleach!

Why can't you get a puppy?

Mighty intense looking wo Babs !!!!

low/no RI's

Thanks Gary - I'm trying to get back in the game
Tonights work out is going to be pretty tough too.

how are you doing

 

[Rocco32]

You're welcome. How are you doing?

Hubby is the same - SLOWLY progressing. Where's the fast forward button to reality when you need it lol.

The girls are healthy - so I'm happy. They fight like crazy and drive me bonkers Brianna (my youngest) lost a tooth while riding her bike at the sitters this summer. Dentist ended up having to pull it. Her tooth broke away from the root and the root split in half. We won't know if she damaged her adult tooth until it comes in. I swear that girl is hell on wheels when she rides. Kiley (aka Miss Priss) graduated to a training bra - so she's happy.

Sunday I purchased a puppy. German Shepherd. Her name is: Miss Bear

I'm trying to feel better. Just mentally with all that has gone wrong in my life the past 2 years is hard to deal with. I'm trying though. Trying and praying there is hope for me yet, you know. I'm scared for the girls and hope I'm here long enough to watch them grow into ladies. I'm just sad and I pray this journa, friends and Endorcrin Doctor can help me. If I could just do one more competition - I would be happy but that's not going to happen. Would be nice though.

As for how I feel (regarding w/o) - My chest is sore. That's about it for now

Your definately a tough cookie Babsie!! Hang in there and things WILL get better, I really believe that. Your girls are so cute, how do they like Miss Bear?

Hmm I don't know WHO that person would've been

so...u off the pil for a reason? wanna add another to the tribe...or just to regulate off it for a while?

Well, I am cat-sitting right now. Parent's went back East for a 3 week vacation. Actually will be in your neighborhood, more or less sometime in the near future. They took the dog with them, I believe, but I have the cat. So far, so god. He is not used to my scedule...getting home at 0615 and going to bed. Wake up, do whatever, leave and do not come back till that next morning. As soon as I climb into bed..he gets on my chest adn 'demands' to be scratched....
So far he has not touched my leather couches....so he lives....

Not that type of pill.

potato
ice tea

meal 3
no sodium/butter yuk popcorn
Ice tea

Meal 4

Until I get a grip on my sugar (these pills make me dip too low) I will be playing with my High GI. If I'm not ON TIME with my meals, I get sick. I don't have enough sugar, I get sick. When my body adapts, my plan is to eliminate all carbs after 5pm.

FYI - I didn't get to ride my bike last night. It was 9:30pm by the time hubby and I got back from orientation. too dark out side to ride.

Hi Babs,
Been a while since I checked in... busy, busy!
I can so relate to the above, my greyhounds still don't have it down completely, unfortunately we still have carpet, I HATE carpet and the smell kinda lingers, I think breaking their habits is hard because they sniff the floor and seem to think it's their 'piss patch' grrr! lol Oh well, we are in the process of renovating and will be ripping out all carpet from the house shortly and replacing with tile, easy for mess clean up!!! Plus, looks like we are going to be adopting two more - possibly this weekend so might as well get them all in and trained first! lol
Glad to hear the appt. went well and that for now at least your hormones are normal.

 

[Burner02]

Hey hottie!
oh...now I know...
I am sitting the coolest cat...who was given a ridiculous name. I refuse to call him by it. So far, he has left the leather couch alone..so he continues to breathe...

I think he likes me.....I go to bed..he curls up on my side....not my ideal means of cuddling...but guess I take what I can get...

 

[Burner02]

SOMEONE has been S L A C K I N G !!!! here...
(pppsssssst....babsie...I'm talking about you...)

 

[BabsieGirl]

Hi you guys. I've been so busy lately with the girls starting private school, etc... Haven't really had the time to post. My diet and training has been the same (well I haven't trained in a week.) Still no progress....I'm down 2 pounds (yay )

Miss Bear put us through an awful scare. Thought she come down with Parvo over the weekend (she was upchucking, not eating OR drinking.) Ended up taking her into ER Med Vet - she tested negative so they gave her a camel hump Sunday, and then another on Monday (since her vet wasn't closed Labor Day.) Tuesday I took her to her vet. He ran lab work, took x-rays, check her stool and lwr intestines - turns out she has a parasite. She will be on meds for 7 days, and will follow up with vet in 3 weeks.

I bought a new "game." Dance Dance Revolution!! You can burn some SERIOUS calories playing it. The first day I got it, my daughter and I spent about 3 hours figuring it all out, 2 hours the following day and another 2 on Labor Day. Come Tuesday I didn't want anything to do with it cause the balls of my feet hurt Anyway, I'm going to incorporate this into my cardio regimen.

That's me. Work, work, parent, parent, volunteer, study, train, burn some calories, eat and sleep................8 hours later, I do the same thing ALL over again.

 

[Burner02]

hey beautiful!
Glad to see u are around! Glad the poochie wasn't serious!
hey, 2lbs is 2lbs, right? for every pound you burn, you are that much closer to your goal, right? Keep pressing, babe!

 

[BabsieGirl]

Hi Darlin

2 pounds is 2 pounds. Thanks for the encouragement.

Total lost now is 3 pounds. I have lost ALL motivation!!! ALL of it

Sorry I haven't been in here lately - just busy busy busy. Things are starting to calm down now that we're getting on schedule at home, etc... Seems like all I do it run, run, run. Not enough time for "me" anymore. Selfish as that sounds, even though I am a mommy, I still need to have time for me. I feel bad though when I do this. Me going to the gym every night takes away from me getting things done at home.....................but I cannot give up!!! My "drive" force is super low!

Today I started Protein supplement - just the "shake."

sorry this is all hit and miss topic of conv.........just wanted to tap in and say a few lines, then get back to work.......
Talk at ya later

 

[DeadBolt]

Heya hot mama!!!!

I haven't been around the journals to much didn't realize you were back. Glad to see it!!!!

Hey sorry to hear things are still hectic with the munchkins and everything....just do the best you can I'm sure you'll be fine....you always are!!

Losing motivation...wtf?? You know better then all of us that progress isn't only in weight its in the mirror and gym. Have you checked your BF%??? Or did ya forget about that one to hun?? Have you been tracking your cals?

That dance dance thing is a killer....I see people do it all the time and they are sweating their arse off. There is actually a club somewhere of obese people that use it as their exercise and they are in great shape now. They do it every day for like 2 hours though LOL.
