On My Mind!

A few things have been on my mind lately.

First, I wonder if I am my WW leader's worst nightmare. I run, and he hates exercise. Not only do I run, but I enjoy running and running far. I eat what I want within the parameters of my points, and he forbids food. At the meeting today, I couldn't believe that he told people to not eat things. I wonder if that really works. I wonder if that is why people eat it, then feel guilty, eat more of it, then quit WW. I was kind of in shock. Jeremy and I talked afterwards, and I told him how I was feeling. He reminded me that I am very competitive. Thank you mom and dad for signing me up for sports at a young age, and that many people aren't. He also reminded me that people view working out as a forced thing. If half of the people who hated working out stopped doing what they hated, and found something they liked they would probably do more of it. Jeremy laughed at me because he thinks it is funny that I won't do anything I don't want to do. Even if you held a gun to my head, I won't do it. You might as well shoot me. LOL

Second, I wonder how much I annoy my WW friends. Lately I feel like when they are down, I am up. When they are up, I am down. LOL It is horrible really, but I haven't gotten on the same "cycle" as them. Or could it be that different things effect me differently?

Third, my friend Laurie is still in shock that I did 18.9 miles. I confronted her about why she couldn't believe I would do something like that, and she was trying to tell me how impressed she is with me. I thought she was being negative, but I guess I was inspiring her. Funny! I really need to clean the ears out and listen. Hehehe

Next, I am down 3.8 this week!! I have been doing WW and following the ideas of Paul McKenna (I Can Make You Thin Guy). Thanks to eating consciously, I really consumed a lot less. I slowed down completely. It is the craziest thing. I really hope I keep this up.

If you have never done a Cathe Freidrich workout and want your butt kicked, I recommend TiVoing her. I know she is on Fit Tv (Cardio Blast is the title), but I am not sure if she is on anything else. I am starting to see muscles that I have not seen before. Even when I was at goal!! Woooooo Hoooooooooo!!

Finally, Brodie is truly crawling now. The fun begins. Conner and I had a long talk about leaving small things on the floor. Conner wasn't an eater when he was a baby. What I mean is that he did see things on the ground, and put it into his mouth. Brodie does. LOL That kid has eatten more paper than I could even imagine. Just what I need, him to be eating a miniature dog.

Hugs!!
