Not a good day
Yesterday was a eating fest- very hard to stop - I was full but still wanted more and more and more. It is not good to do that. Started at 10 am and didn't stop till after 10 last night when I went to bed.
Here is my food log from yesterday - and quite honestly don't think this was everything I consumed Bad bad bad - oh well, wondering was it stress or just making up for the weekend not eating right?

So went to pharmacy to pick up some scripts and the lady at the counter asked if I was going to pick up Dave's too -- I said no we are separated she was sorry to hear that. She said we seemed like such nice people. Oh well. then last night Dave's sister posts on his facebook wall to call her. I commented back to her he never goes on facebook and she should just call him, or email him sent her his phone and email addy by private mail and sent him a message to call his sister. So this morning I get a message from him thanking me for the message he talked to his sister yadda yadda yadda - I'm thinking sure unimportant crap like that you respond to, but when I send you long heartfelt messages or messages of importance I hear nada WTF is up with that anyway??
Tomorrow I have meeting with atty to get divorce started. It is also our 26th anniversary.

Workout log
Today's workout FBB Base Phase B

10lbs x 10 reps each side x2 sets
Prone Cobra 60 sec X 2 sets
Overhead Squat 20lbs X 8 & 20lbs x 6 reps
lateral raise w/ external rotation 10lb x 10 - x 2 sets

Split Stance Cable Row 27.5 lbs x 10 - 2 sets
No foam roller at the community center will foam roll tonight when I watch 'Mad Men'
Went to the city's rec center w/ Carmen so she could try it out before she decides if she's going to switch gyms. she likes the machines so I did a couple reps on some of the machines. I HATE machines. the cable workouts are the exception to that rule - you gotta use the machines for those so I just brought the 15 lbs weight over into that area of the gym. the city has some weird ass rules - no food or drink and no gym bags allowed on the floor --WTF I have my book, my log notebook my towel, water bottle and my protein drink that FBB says to drink while working out. Oh well, I waited til I got into the car then drank it.
I'm going to go up to the pool now and soak in the jacuzzi to release some of the soreness in my back.
Oh I went to the house to drop off the broken swamp cooler and youngest daughter was there moving in her boyfriends stuff. She didn't say much to me. Think she's pissed since I didn't loan her money last week - well, if you don't talk to me for 2 weeks and then only text me for money then you aren't going to get any money.

Measuring my successes in inches not pounds
Today's horoscope seems very on the mark today bring on the suitors!!!!
This is a time for you Scorpio where you can take a step back and congratulate yourself on your aesthetic accomplishments. When it comes to love, you are finally in a period of acceptance, and this acceptance is something that is coming from within, and is not merely a surface value. When you finally make this move to be okay with all that has transpired, something beautiful happens and this internal beauty is manifesting itself well externally. This alone is going to make you much more attractive to the opposite sex. When you are satisfied with the emotional work that you are doing, your confidence shows and your suitors will very soon start knocking on that door of opportunity.
Took my measurements this morning and am pleased, only problem is I can't find my measurement log book from 2004 when I first lost weight- will have to tear apart the boxes from the move and find it to compare. I think its got to be better.
What exactly where the numbers you ask
Chest - ( not breasts- but probably not much difference!) = 33.5
Waist - 1" above belly button - 32
Hips- 7" below Belly button = 40
Arm - 4" from elbow bend - 12
Thighs - fattest part - 23.5
Ok off to find my old log book.
found the log book - looking back I see progress in some areas.
lets go from the first entry Sept 25th 2004 weight - 202 lbs
Chest - 38
Waist - 38 3/4
Hips - 45.25
Arm- 12 3/4
Thigh 26 3/8
one year later weight 164 ( only 5 lbs less than my weight today) quit smoking 2 months prior and put on 15 lbs also started to get sick at this time
chest -34.5
Waist 35 3/4
hips - 39.5
arm - 12
thigh - 24
I can't find 2006 and 07's logs - don't think I want to see them 2008 was horrendous
9/11/2008 weight 171.6 only 2 lbs more than today if this doesn't prove muscle takes up less space than fat I don't know what else could!
chest - 34
waist 37
hips 43
arm 12.5
thigh 25.5
So in the last year once getting more serious and working a program properly I've made progress!!
Before I quit smoking I was able to fit into size 8's - but they had to have some stretch to them, my "thermometer jeans" as Rachel Cosgrove calls it in her book ( instead of a pound weight goal) my jean size I want to wear are 6's. I can get into some size 8's now, but they make me have a muffin top - my biggest problem is I can't get most size 8's over my thighs. They are baggy in the butt and waist, just won't go over these saddle bags gotta work on that issue

Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner
I think I have been to Prescott more in the last month than the entire 11 years I've lived in the Verde Valley ! Last night had dinner at In and Out Burger. This morning had oatmeal and coffee at JB Big Boy then went to Wildflower Bread Company with Anthony and Jack for more breakfast a couple hours later. Then shopping and then met up with Carmen and her friend and ate lunch at Red Robin. The girls continued shopping - I decided I needed to come home. Played on the computer a bit and then started cleaning the apt put together a bookcase and have done laundry while listening to Sirius/ XM 's Saturday night "Safety Dance" on "First Wave" station. 8 hours of all 80's new wave dance tunes -- I'm in heaven!!!
While eating my oatmeal this morning I started re reading The Female Body Breakthrough and it said to keep a journal or blog of workouts and feelings and such so this blog is going to be changing directions a bit. Going to start posting my workout logs and such. I should probably get the tape measure out too. I'll do that tomorrow, maybe after the last 24 hour food choices aren't bloating me up as much. I need to make a special shout out to Maria for making the log sheets for FBB - I am so illiterate when it comes to Excel spreadsheets.
Tomorrow I promised Carmen I'd go with her to the city's rec center to work out. I'm not sure how much of a workout I'll actually get.

Genesis - D1: 10. The Carpet Crawlers
Absolutely the greatest Genesis song ever- the group was never the same after Gabriel left!!!
Michael Jackson - Ben (lyrics)
I Love this song! It makes me sad!!! I think it is the best young Michael Jackson song pre- Thriller for sure!!
California Gays Music Video To Katy Perry California Gurls Parody
This is the most funniest video I've seen in a long time - if you don't have time for the full 5 minutes fast forward to 1:30 point and be prepared to laugh your ass off!!
CNN: Sirius XM's Michelangelo Signorile discusses Ken Mehman's coming ou...
I listen to this show whenever I can - but mostly on Friday's cause of work hours its hard to listen to a talk show while working- especially when I get pissed off at politicians!! Why is it all the cute guys are either Gay or married??
Sassy Gay Friend: Romeo & Juliet
Don't we all need a Sassy gay friend? How would my life had been different if I had one early on -

Nicole crossfit workout
I am posting this link cause not only do I love the song- I so want to be able to lift my bodyweight like this someday. And to all the girls out there saying they don't want to bulk up and refuse to lift weights I say "I want to be this bulky"!!! this girl is hot.
Just realized tonight that I have not printed the right workout logs for Female Body breakthrough WOA - I hadn't done the co contractural lunge , the push ups and the hip thigh extension and reverse flys yet - did them tonight for the first time. Hope I'm not too sore tomorrow doing those new workouts - I do have plans with T tomrrow night and then breakfast plans with my other friends over in the area. Want to be able to walk

Bigots and hypocrites aka The RNC
Yesterday was a very interesting day indeed. I sent the ex a very long winded release email. I had to respond to his email about "getting it together". I haven't heard a reply back, don't think I will but oh well, I felt better getting it off my chest at least. I didn't make it to the gym last night - I was just really tired and had a headache and my legs were sore from the workout the night before
So was listening to the OUTQ station on XM/ sirius yesterday when the news leaked about Mehlman announcing he's gay - which actually wasn't suppose to happen until Friday- hahaha- you know what pisses me off so much about these politicians who preach hate and bigotry and no rights for gays all the time only to be gay themselves. Its horrific. It seems the loudest bashers are the ones who get found out. http://www.theatlantic.com/politics/archive/2010/08/bush-cam paign-chief-and-former-rnc-chair-ken-mehlman-im-gay/62065/
this morning of course the main stream media is downplaying the whole thing while the gay publications are furious. I just wonder how long before John McCain or his wife and or daughter come out!!! -
If you want to see a funny video check this it out it relates to this topic.

Yesterday at work one of my coworkers whose daughter got married Saturday was talking about decorating her house and how she wanted to get rid of all the dead animal heads mounted on her walls. She said when can I have my house the way I want it I said "move out" we laughed. I said well take your daughters room and make it his man cave and move them all into there. This Friday we are going out to lunch for Dr's wife's birthday. I said what time - oh it doesn't matter my date isn't until 7 that night LOL - coworkers asked what I was going to do I want to say MYOB but said oh go out to dinner and whatever. I know what I'm doing I'm going to have a good time doing it too. Saturday morning I'm taking my gay friends over in that town out to breakfast too. We'll pal around a bit and then think I'll come back to town and depending on the weather go swimming or go over and start sorting thru the garage stuff to sell. will just play it by ear on what happens saturday.
Will try to get to gym tonight. Not much else on agenda.
today's funny is on the "gay theme"

What can I say
Yesterday and today have been a bit harder to handle on the emotional scale - Emailed ex - haven't heard back yet from that.
Yesterday I bought myself a new bed and they were able to deliver it already as well. Its only a full size, but its fine. A queen would have made this room even more cramped so its ok.
While lifting weights last night I noticed this bruise on my bicep - must have been from the moving the futon out of the room to make room for the bed. I don't know why I bruise so easily. It doesn't hurt just looks awful.
I didn't feel up to going to gym today. I just feel really tired and a little sore. Not sure how much of the soreness is from the old futon finally getting to me or the workout from yesterday. Tired do to the getting accustomed to new bed and the fact the swamp cooler thing is broken so its downright warm at night to sleep. I am so ready for September to hurry and get here and bring cooler temps.

Rhinestone Teardrop Sandal
These remind me of my favorite stilletos I had back in 84 too cute.
See the similarities. I have a goal of getting my legs to be that shape once again and be able to pull off wearing these kind of shoes once again and look hot, not like an old worn out - well you get the idea.
