Workout day 1 of 14

I did it!

I wanted to bail on this whole thing today. I started getting a headache today at work and I seriously didn´t want to go home and exercise, but I DID! even though it was not a long one. And it was worth it. My thighs got a tiny workout but they are happy and numb. I only did 21 min on the bike cause again I was well honestly just lazy and my headache is a good excuse. Then I did 20 squats and 3 different hand weight/lifting stuff just one round of each. Oooh and check out my nails lol love 'em

The calorie counter is the annoying one with out the strap since my watch is running super low on battery, but I am guessing the calories burnt are somewhere near 200-250.

I think I did OK food wise.
For breakfast I had a protein drink
Lunch was the lower bun of a burger and the burger meat (had no left overs from last night)
Dinner was half cup Lasagnette and one slice garlic bread
I also drank 1.5 L water or 67.6 ounces
But I was bad and had one chocolate bar after lunch (hate to admit it but I did)

new commitment

I am making a deal with myself. I am going to exercise everyday for 2 weeks and post the calorie counter number on here, starting tomorrow since I have no time today, funnily enough. I need to do more than I am doing. So on that note at least 20 minutes of exercise per day, does not matter whether it is walking, hiking or cycling.

On another subject, I am getting mentally ready for school in August. I am going to be doing loads of science stuff again and needed a new lab coat. As you can see my last one is a bit loose on me, and it was pretty tight last spring.

And another weirder subject. I feel like when I am looking in the mirror that I am not THAT big when I look straight on, but when I turn to the side my tummy sticks out and it bugs me a bit, since I know that is my problem area. What is your problem area if you have any. 

TTT

I was contemplating not doing TTT this week but I couldn´t stop thinking about it so here it is.

1. I love my scale, well at least the number it is showing.

2. I hate this summer, it has been the coldest since I can remember.

3. My son is growing up way to fast, I swear his face is changing like every 2 weeks or so, and he spends the evenings after he gets home flipping between cartoons and VH1/MTV.

4.  I am thinking about changing my facebook profile picture, I felt like a fool the other day cause I honestly for a short time felt kinda pretty/cute and snapped a photo and I am trying to be brave and put in online, so which one would you choose?

5. I am spending way too much time dreaming about another trip to Orlando. It has become an obsession and it is depressing to realize that we wont be going any time soon, like my son will probably be 16+ before we can go again sigh

6. Working sucks, I am working with nice people but this whole getting up and doing stuff sucks.

7.  My son broke his bike and I have to try and get it fixed but it is hard considering I am working during most shops opening times. Damn his jumping ways, but I should be lucky its just his bike that broke.

8. Watching Unique Sweets and cake shows on Food Network is not a good idea. I mean I am not really hungry rather my brain thinks it is hungry when watching them, too bad that making cakes is a hobby of mine

9. I will be gaining a kid on Sunday, my sons best friend from up north is coming for a visit. Having two 12 year old boys will be weird, and who knows, being at work wont suck so much then hahaha. No but really I am so glad they are keeping in touch, he is a really nice kid and unfortunately he has not made any other friends back there and I feel kind of responsible for him loosing his best friend.

10. I love LOVE caramel flavoured vodka, yumm yumm it is soooo good.


Gotta tell you how we pronounce mayonaise, well it is just like this "my own ass" just say it fast hahahahaha it is spelled mæjónes.

weigh in ( loving it )

Day of surgery: 127 kg or 280 pounds 
Today: 107.4 kg or 236.8 pounds
Loss last two weeks: -1.1 kg or -2.4 pounds
Total loss: 19.6 kg or 43.2 pounds

Loving this weight loss, I am still a scale whore and step on it morning and nights (always expecting some major drop for some odd reason). I am still not 100% at eating healthy all the time, I have found it hard this week to shop for food when I am not starving, I am working from 10 am to 6 pm and the stores dont open till 10 am so I am always hungry this week when shopping. But I have a plan. That is I am going to shop for dinner all next week and even make some of it on Sunday and Saturday, then I can just place it in the oven when home or nuke it. 

Anywhoots I am loving this, I am almost down to my lowest weight since I was 19 and that is 103.6 kg or 228.4 lbs. 

I want this scale

home sweet home

I drove home last night and arrived just past 1 am. I was exhausted, and the kid could barely keep his eyes open. It has been a hectic past days at this soccer tournament.

I am super proud of my "lil" boy. He was a goal keeper for all but one of the games and he was the top 4th goal keeper of his group (they place them into these categories ranging from group A to F, in his group F there were two sub groups F(A) and F(B) and he was in the first and each group had 8 teams), so yeah basically he was 4th out of 16 and he doesn't even train to be a goal keeper but that might be changing because he is a natural at it.

His team placed 3rd in the F(A) and 5th in the combined groups.

Ugh I wanted to punch one mother that was cheering her sons team on. She placed herself next to my sons goal and yelled obscene remarks at him (she even followed him when he changed goals in the second half of the game), like "your team doesn't play soccer rather rugby" and so on, my son didn't want to relay all that she said he just said she said some nasty stuff,  which is actually funny because her sons team was like really hard and kept knocking our boys down, and she even yelled at her own son and told him to hurt them as he could. Like what kind of a mother are you?

There was no weigh in on Thursday since I was up north but I got on the scale this morning and it was a loss so I´m happy with that.

And now I am going to drown you in my super proud soccer mom pictures.

My son is nr 9 (the one with the beanie), his only game not as a goal keeper

 Excited to start

Chilling in between games

 We did not get good weather, it was cold an kept raining it was below 50 the whole time

 He kept yelling at the boys and it seemed to do the trick

 one pic of me, I really didn't feel like a huge disgusting fat
blob, guess my head is getting fixed as well as the weight

 My lil cutie pie (don't tell him I said that)

 celebration

 what team is the best?     FJÖLNIR!

 poor lads had loads of pictures taken

 why can he never give me a serious smile when asked "sigh"

 yeah didn't get better hahaha

 celebrating after placing in 5th place out of 16

 our team turned into the poncho gang since almost all parents bought the same kind of poncho to keep them warm between games and on the sidelines.

 they put on their game face to play for the 3rd place in their subcategory

 

yup that is 37 °F or 3°C and a snow flake that rang true becase I drove through snow on the way home

  ITS JULY FOR HECK'S SAKE! AAARRG

Finally

OMG!

Finally that freaking loan institution sent back the answer that yes it will loan the guy buying our flat up north. OMG I am ecstatic, I am driving up north super early tomorrow and finalizing the sale. Oh I feel like a ton of weight has been lifted, and now I can start being excited that we can buy a new place this fall.
