Day 1- I feel like I'm already dying

Have you ever worked out so much, or so little in my case where you could feel your heartbeat in your chest? Or you felt like you could throwup the egg english muffin that you had for breakfast? That 's what today's workout was like for me.

It started out with getting Kaiden ready for the day, breakfast consisted of cerela and peaches for him, and an egg over easy on a dry english muffin and water for me. Followed by some playtime for Kaiden and mommy checking her grades, studying for midterm, Farmville and Facebook and then baby went down for a nap. So I decide I would take this quiet opportunity to utilize the 1-hour Cardio workout on my Bob Harper Cardio Inside Out Method dvd that I have. It clearly states on the dvd that you should start out with the 25 minute workout for awhile first until you feel comfortable but I'd grown tired of the mini workout and decided to see how far I could get into the hour long one. Turns out I can make 18 mins 32 secs. and thats also counting Kaiden waking up from his nap along with me feeling like I was going to throw up.

I will say what I did get done was something I would consider to be a great workout. I'm still sweating, It hurts to walk because my legs feel like Jell-O and my fingers shake as I'm typing this. Now I need to cool down, make some Green Iced Tea, finish my water and give Kaiden lunch. I'm assuming though that I can now give myself goals in starting to see how far I can go into the dvd workout until I'm fully comfortable in finishing it. This will work great with my Biggest Loser Family Cookbook that my grandmother so graciously gave me in an Easter Basket she won at work last year. Great workout and great challenges....maybe with a little work we'll start to see the baby weight melt off. :)


By the way?....Have you all done your Daily Healthy Challenge?

My new path to losing the baby weight....

Well, we'll see how this one goes.
I'm not the type for fad diets; i.e. Graperfuit, South Beach, Atkins, Special K or necessarily for fad diet pills; i.e. Hydroxycut, Quicktrim, or Alli. Not that I believ they don't work, Im sure they work marvelously....for certain people. I can honestly say it's been going on 8 months now since I had my son and instead of sticking to my adamant prophecies that I WOULD lose the baby weight & that I wouldn't be that "fat mom". I can say that I am finally admitting defeat.

I'm 22 years old, mother of one and I have nowhere near lost the baby weight the way I had originally intended to. In fact, I've actually gained 5 lbs. Now some of you may think that that's not much but for me it is incredibly bad. I was a size 3 when I got pregnant and can now only squeeze my post-baby body into a pair of 9's.  But today is a new day, I will be going "Balls to the wall" in starting a new cardio & strength interval weight loss program. Normally I am very bad at sticking to these things but I am hoping that with the help of this new Blog and food diary that I will  be at least close back to a healthy pre-baby body.


Along with the food diary I will personally be keeping and this blog, I will invite my readers to try new recipes as I come across them as I am quite the cooking fanatic. So here goes nothing.....ON TO HEALTHY MOMMY BODY!!!! lol

I do however invite everyone to start taking Daily Challenges to help make themselves healthier.

COUPLE LOSES $880,000 ON FOX GAME SHOW DUE TO FAULTY RESEARCH.

So....
FOX NETWORK.
We've all heard the same song and dance on the shady things they will showcase on their network and how in the relatable opinions of others they may have a sheisty way of running the network. But I am outraged that most recently, I was watching the networks new show "Million Dollar Drop" & after seeing a couple lose $880,000 dollars of a question due to what I have personally found to be faulty research I think the company to should apologize to viewers, and the contestants and reward them with an $880,000 restitution. The question was "Which item was sold in stores first?" The given answer choices were: a. McIntosh computer b. Sony Walkman and c. Post-It notes.

The couple proceeded to play the money all on post-its. They were very confident in their answers up until the money was dropped and not declared the correct answer when placed out of the three it indeed was.

The couple ended up playing their last $20,000 and lost it thus, walking away with nothing when they SHOULD have been able to play with way more than what they had. Post-It Notes were first launched in 1977, don't believe me? Google it and you'll see the answer on answers.com

The way I see it? The country is in a recession and here is a network with a game show reasonably claiming that if we play the game, they'll pay us money making it fun for the contestants and the viewers. But if they're just using millions of dollars to tease people they should either do their damn research or think of a new gimmick.

Circling the drain in an overflowing pool

I feel the need to desensitize myself from my current reality.
I feel the need to be calm and breathe.
I feel the need to accept all and be at peace with things.
I feel the need to find a real sense of tranquility.
-
Oh.
-
Breathe.
-
B-R-E-A-T-H-E
-
OH.
-
I feel the need to kick your fucking face in.
I feel the need to run over you with my car, back up, & do it again.
I feel the need to hogtie you with your own hair and roast you over a spit-fire.
I feel the need to tell you things won't work out for you out of spite.
I feel the need to scream at you until I lose my own voice.
I feel the need to emasculate you in a VERY public way.
I feel the need to take a louisville slugger to your precious car.
I feel the need to punch your lights out and strangle you with my belt.
I feel the need to steal your identity and fuck with your credit.
-
B-R-E-A-T-H-E

1...2...3...4...4...5..6.7...8...9..........10


I am livid.
I am angered.
I am enraged.
I am pissed.
1...2...3...4...5...6...7...8...9............10


God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change,
The courage to change the things I can,
and the wisdom to know the difference.

Love Street- Tomorrows Bad Seeds

Sketch22

Do I -
have to strangle you with a microphone wire to get my point across?
turn up the volume and start a fire 
At the time there were only raindrops on the glass windowpane
but now theres smoke comin out in clouds
Let's snap our fingers and dance together
burn together, run together
to the sea where freedom is actually free.


Do you wanna burn down the town with me?
Wanna run away with me?
Wrap your arms around me and we'll burn together
I won't let you burn out. 


Sway like reeds in the wind 
Bend like the river
Be vocal like a singer
Close your eyes and find an unfamiliar place, that oh-so familiar place. 
Breathe
Breathe
Breathe
