INSANITY-We are still INSANE.

Due to everyone falling sick at some point last week, I missed 2 days and Damm missed 3. So we're repeating the last week of month 1. I really, really didn't want to have to stop-we were almost to month 2-but it gives us more muscle building time.

In other news, although still relevant to INSANITY, I am back at Barnes & Noble. Primarily zoning & shelving, i.e. maintenance and prettiness. Muscles I had forgotten were there are screaming at me. I had forgotten how physically taxing it could be working in a bookstore:) BUT all the squatting and bending over has improved my performance in INSANITY: previous knee bends I had difficulty with before are now easy. So yay for that.

With me being away 3-4 days a week now it's a scramble to continue eating healthfully, but I think we're still doing ok. Being near the cafe does not help, however. Frappuccino, anyone?

I did take measurements last Friday but because we're repeating this week, and because I am writing this after a full day at work and I'm tired and inclined to be lazy, I'm not going to post them. We'll retake measurements Friday.

Is it really only Monday? I already want my Friday pizza. Except we decided we're not doing that. Bah humbug. Sometimes practicing self-control stinks:)

INSANITY. Day 2.

My thoughts on the Plyometric Cardio Circuit? My floor has never looked so appealing. And I never thought I'd be one of the "yellers." In exercise lingo (not another lingo!:) that means you yell when things get hard. Oh bother. Another pun. Anyway, Shaun T's Basketball Drills had me yelling. And grunting as good as those humongo body builders do. And as good as Tim the Tool Man Taylor:) Damm's thoughts were that he didn't push as hard as he could've BUT this time he was standing at the end of the workout. And as soon as he actually sat down he couldn't get back up:) We aren't going to change what we eat yet. We were already ingesting good-for-you foods. According to the caloric needs calculater Damm should be eating around 3,000 calories working out 6 days a week and I should be at 2,400. I'm already at 2,000-2,200 because I'm still the main food source of the Little Man. Not sure where Damm falls on the calorie count. Anyway, not upping ou...

The Cat is Out of the Bag

I wonder where that expression comes from? There is this fabulous book that can tell you, only I forgot the name of it. Next time I come across it I think I'm going to have to buy it. Anyway. I was going to wait. A long time. Maybe forever. I don't like people coming up and hugging me, smiling and saying congratulations, or asking me questions. But Damm was talking to his recruiter about insurance. And he mentioned something that he should've told the recruiter was non-repeatable, because 5 minutes later the recruiter told Damm's mother (I have no earthly idea why he's talking to her-I keep forgetting to ask). After that I had to tell my mother. We haven't told any extended family members because there are quite a few here celebrating Damm's mother's graduation and that would be the worst form of torture I can imagine. So yeah, I'm knocked up again :P And this time I'm getting the t-shirt. "It" is due August 11. I have not been to a doc...

Pedestels

Me and someone had an interesting conversation yesterday. Prompting this short question post: Who do you put on a pedestel? Who do you look down on? Don't answer either of these please. I don't really want to know. I just did a personal inventory and realized there are an awful lot of people that I either elevate or disparage for reasons that are not really valid reasons. I know there are people I've thought horrible things about who were really just normal regular joes who were smart in other areas but inexperianced in the arena I knew them in. I know there are people I've thought of as amazing self assured genius specimens of physical perfection....who were really insecure, incompetant, losers who wanted more from life. Anways this is just serious thoughts from the Orc.
