i want MORE

I am kinda grumpy today. Don't know why. Monday is weigh day for me (okay, I weigh EVERY day but Monday is the day I record it). I lost 3.5lbs this week. And yet...somehow...it wasn't enough to put me in a good mood. WHY?!?!

Friday I went to Zumba. Has anyone ever done Zumba before? Totally fun and HARD! Zumba is a mix of hip hop and latin dance moves paired with other basic areobic moves. High cardio for sure. I love to dance, and the entire time I was imagining I had made it to the choreography round of So You Think You Can Dance. It was a 45 minute class and I hung in there until about the 38 minute mark and then all of my steam was gone and I kept waiting for the cool down. My body was on fire for at least an hour afterwards. Thumbs up.

We didnt do Yoga on Sunday bc I am SPECIAL! Every first Sunday of the month is free yoga. Do you see the problem me thinking it was yesterday? Yesterday was only May 31st. NOT the first Sunday of the month. Oh well, we will go this Sunday.

On the poop front (look, I swore to myself I would not talk about my bowels as much, but this is a learning opportunity). I took a Ducolax yesterday bc seriously...I couldnt get anything to happen and I knew something needed to happen. I felt like a champagne bottle that had a cork stuck in it. Anyways about 5 hours later the magic happened, and let me tell you ladies...it was wonderful. I havent felt that good after a bathroom experience in 4 months.

I will post pictures from the weekend when I get home and the pictures I found and scanned from when I was skiing as a little girl. We are going to lift weights at least twice a week...this should help me reach my goal of skiing once more!

  1. I have to remember to pause when you do. For a minute there I thought we were gonna get pictures of your fabulous bathroom experience...but I get it now! :) Love the skiing pics, I never did ski and lived across the street from a perfect lake for most of my young life. Oh well, something to put on my 'wish list'! Tuesday will most definitely be better, but HEY wait a minute, what could be better than 3.5? Come on now, that's GREAT.

  5. I too thought that you might have been talking about poop pictures. LOL...

    There was a stand-up comic once who had this great line about, "Ever take a shit where after you're done, your pants fit better?" That one I think of every time I have a good BM. And the fact that one of my best friend's initials are BM, which he grew up hating. Hahaha.
