Results: Week Four


This is a picture of the delicious cupcakes my sister Annie brought to our Oscar party last night.  They're from Molly's Cupcakes and boy were they good.  I think I'm getting into the swing of this non-diet thing because I ate cupcakes with no guilt and no frantic trying to add up calories in my head.  I've been doing that since I was twelve years old, so it's quite the weight off my shoulders.

Anyway, down 1.2 lbs this week for a total of 7.4.  I'll take it!
  • My elliptical machine is still broken.  Costco had the people who manufactured it get a hold of me and parts are being sent this week.  When they arrive, a repairman will be coming to fix it.  I'm glad, because in typical lazy-ass fashion, I didn't exercise too much this week.  It's so much easier to get myself to do it when I don't have to leave the house.
  • I went to visit my friend Anne on the south side, the land of my birth, this week.  She's nine months pregnant and has a three-year-old, Marty.  We went to Top-Notch for lunch.  I grew up down the street from that place and have probably eaten there 2000 times, but it's still my favorite restaurant.  I can't tell you how good it is to go there and order a burger and fries and not even think for a second about ordering a salad.  Not dieting is great!
This week, I'm starting a strength routine, which will be a miracle as there is nothing I find more boring.  Well, maybe televised golf, although when Tiger Woods comes back and there's that added element of "what-will-the-crowd-scream-to-distract-Tiger" involved, I just might have to tune in.  I love a good train wreck!

Good for you! Yay! Whoo-Hoo! (those cupcakes look GOOD!)

I LOVE Jari Love for strength training - except her last DVD which came out last May. But she has 4-5 good ones. No tricky moves, she's great about showing modifications, and not too annoying.

Thanks, Kim! I am going to have my old trainer show me a new routine, but maybe I will check that out to vary it up a little. Usually exercise DVDs just gather dust in my house. My attention span is a lot tinier than my butt :)

I too have a touch of the magic ADD dust and Jari is not boring - to me.
She does a staggered rep thing (lots of reps/light weight), I'm so busy counting that poof! an hour has gone by and my triceps hurt like an SOB.
She doesn't do anything tricky either, which is great because I have dyscalulia (which sounds either like a breakfast cereal for vampires, or something that needs to be sewn up asap.)

Sorry, that's dyscalculia (could have a touch of dyslexia as well)

Ha, Kim, I loved the cereal for vampires! They're very in right now. You should market that. Blood red milk.

Jess, thank you!
