Yo-yo Diet

I’m not a super health freak by the stretch of any imagination….I’m not vegan (although I did try the vegetarian thing for like 7 years and, boy, did I miss me some curry goat and oxtail), I don’t nosh on granola all the time (or ever, for that matter), I don’t drink only almond/soy/rice milk, I don’t use stevia/truvia, I don’t eat/buy only organic foods, and I don’t run marathons. But I do try to eat as healthy as I’m… Continue Reading

Gym Pet Peeve

boy_shouting_sq

Nope, not kids in the gym…actually, that would annoy the living daylights out of me, but I’m talking shouting and being all loud in the gym. I’m not talking about casual laughing and lively conversation while working out, but I’m talking about cackling, moaning, just plain old being super loud. Last week these two chicks were on the elliptical and I was unfortunate enough to be beside them. Well, lawd have mercy, I could barely hear my music and focus… Continue Reading

39 Days Post-Op

39days post op

I’m not in the greatest of moods today, nor was I yesterday, snapping at those unfortunate to be around me. In good news, I’ve been walking for the last six days. I was definitely wobbly at first but I’m a bit more stable now. I’m still pretty slow, but at least I’m on my feet. I will say that being on your ass 99.7% of the time for five weeks does a number on you: it’s hard to bend you… Continue Reading

SOMEONE KEEPS TRYING TO LOG INTO MY BLOG….WTF

  Seriously, WTF? This is just a tiny personal blog about me trying to lose my wobbly-bits…geeeesh. To the person who keeps trying: give it up; move on; I have the IP addresses and locations you try from. Stop already. Continue Reading

**Updating the Blog…Stay Tuned**

I did a theme update and it messed up the layout. Sh!t. Working on getting this fixed. Continue Reading

Today’s Workout…

…was my first time back in the gym in months. Since I’ve been doing P90x, I haven’t been to the gym….only the P90x, biking, and running. I decided to go back today for a few reasons, but the main one being that I’m packing up my ish and moving back to Antigua within the next few weeks so my makeshift workout area for doing pullups and other back exercises is gone. Walking into the gym again felt really good but… Continue Reading

WTF?

Why the f*ck do guys feel the need to holla at you when I’m running? First of all, I’m running so I’m definitely not focused on your lame ass in your lame car. There are some of you that yell out your car window and keep it moving then there are those of you who slow down your car and ride along side me and try to talk to me. WTF is wrong with you??? Don’t you see I’m busy?… Continue Reading

What is not a RED Grapefruit?

This….this is not a RED grapefruit *irritated* Purchased three RED grapefruits and spent friggin’ $4….that is a lot for an unemployed person like me. It was bad enough the the damn grapefruits were light as a feather (indicating their lack of juice) but they are not….RED! WTF….isn’t there a law against false advertising? They weren’t even pink…or pinkish. You know what, I blame this on myself. I should have known that the RED grapefruit bought in a huge supermarket in… Continue Reading

Why I Hate My Gym: Part 2

I think I can go on for days about why my current gym sucks, so I figured I’d just give snippets here and there. Today (and practically everytime I go) the free weights aren’t in their proper places. Why is ONE 70lb weight in the 15lb slot? Why is the 35lb in the 90lb slot? Why weren’t 15lb weights together? We all know that people suck and some may not put the weights back in their proper places but shouldn’t… Continue Reading

Why I Hate My Gym: Reason #1

Their friggin machines don’t work!! Not only do they take forever to fix their machines (please see previous post) but there are always a ton of machines broken. Today, two weighted machines were down and ELEVEN cardio machines were out of order. This gym has 65 cardio machines (yes, I counted) which means that ~17% of their machines are broken. WTF? And its not like they just broke down, I’m so over seeing the same “out of order” signs on… Continue Reading

Dear Headless Stairmill

Dear Headless Stairmill, Why the hell are you still headless??? Certainly I understand that things happen and you may need repairing once in a while, but 3+ weeks is a bit ridiculous to be out of commission. Your siblings next to you seem to work just fine, but it is slightly very irritating when I need to use your services are your other functioning counterparts are in use; not only in use, but being utilized by people who very clearly… Continue Reading
