86 days until Christmas!
General September 30th, 2008Ha! Ha! Ha! errr should I say, Ho! Ho! Ho! Just so ya know!
Should I simply shut the happy hello up!!! That’s what I thought…shuttie uppie. Shutabus uppagus???
Moved my ticker yesterday morning. 179. Been all over this number one side of it and then the other, so the heck with it. I’m feeling like I’m in a good place right now and can move that puppy on down a little more in favor of 170 lbs. Sunny fall weather for biking, running and hiking or walking and all that outdoorsey stuff. I’m itching to get going, but wanted to check in and say hello.
I finished the Lazy Man Triathlon this morning. YAY! I racked up the inquired 26 miles in about two weeks, and this morning I finished the double cycling for a total of 114 miles! I had to bike 15 to 20 miles several time to make sure I’d have the miles, but I wasn’t big on that. I know I can cycle that many , it’s just that 10 to 15 mile is more my thing!
Only when I want to! It, as in ‘it the triathlon’, was an interesting goal to have to complete for September. Probably helped burned off a few of those choc. coated almonds…damn you, you deliciously addictive things!!!
It’s a good thing to have goals. Even if you don’t meet them, or end up changing them here and there as need be, I guess what counts is that you don’t give up on whatever you’re trying to accomplish. Ya keep coming back and taking another stab at it. Attacking it from another angle. I was just thinking that I don’t have a lot of angles left to play around with here if I want to meet my b-day goal. 11 weeks gives me a safe 20 lbs loss. I know I can do it because I’m tough and hard headed enough to do any thing I put my mind to and I’m losing 20 pounds dammit! So there take that you evil banana rum!!! I’ve spent enough time dicking around and it looks like I’m going to put myself on my own little ‘boot camp from hell’ program…and I WILL LIKE IT!
So there, take that you sinful two bite brownies!
I’m going for a run!
update: omg! too hot to run! is it still summer? what the….

Woooo periwinkle! A seven in the middle! Look how close you are getting to the halfway point. And great job on the triathlon.
Hey, those almonds are good for ya! And banana rum…I hear it, uhh…let’s see it does something good, right? It is good for the central nervous system. Yeah, that’s it. The central nervous system.

Holy cow! Congrats on the triathalon. That particular goal was too dern big and scary for me to even contemplate!
Your boot camp video sounds 100x worse than my real thing, but I see you’re already psyching yourself up for it. Damn, kiss those 20 pounds goodbye. No wait, kissing’s too nice for ‘em. Flip ‘em off as they fall!

Well thank you SO MUCH. 86 days till Christmas. Grumble. Do you realise that means it’s only 85 here coz we’re 1 day closer? How on earth am I going to get my shopping done? Oh, I shouldn’t complain. One of my friends was asking on Saturday how much Christmas shopping we’d all done. It was lucky she was on the other side of the room or I’d probably have thumped her.
Awesome that you’ve finished that triathalon. I know the swimming would just get the better of me. And you’re gonna kick those 170s in the arse with your home made boot camp. Go for it!
