I'd like to make this post sound like that song in Chess, One Night in Bangkok but I have no patience for that right now. But one night in Bangkok does make a hard man humble which is where this beefy blogger finds herself...
Just another short hiatus on the blog front, however, in this short time many things have become apparent to me. The number one spot is not where my time went because, that, I am uncertain of but I am sure I'll attempt to relive those days with you as I often do. Realistically I can't write to you every day. I am incapable of writing anything that is short winded. Apparently when I say many, I really mean just one thing. See italics.
While that lame attempt at bulleted wisdom (bullet casings removed) seemed to be an epic failure on my part; I have found inspiration. Miss Ruby has inspired me, she is changing five things in order to move her towards her goal. So I'm going to do the same. Here they are:
- Trading carbonated beverages for water/tea
- Trading TV for fitness (see below)
- Staying up past midnight on weekdays
- Organize myself for the week with Mr. Bloggerstein
- Be realistic about where I am with some mirror time
No. 1: I will have at least two of my red Vita-Mix cups of water per day. Yes ma'am, even the weekends!
No. 2: My walking plan for this month as of Monday the 5th
Week 1

Tuesday: 15 minutes
Wednesday: 10 minutes
Thursday: 0 minutes
Friday: 15 minutes
Saturday: 10 minutes
Sunday: 20 minutes
Weekly total: 80 minutes
Week 2

Tuesday: 20 minutes
Wednesday: 15 minutes

Week 3

Friday: 25 minutes
Saturday: 0 minutes
Sunday: 35 minutes
Weekly total: 150 minutes
Week 4

Wednesday: 40 minutes

No. 3: I'm constantly dehydrated and sleep deprived so I end up ODing on the coffee because I'm sleepy. Research has shown that people who are sleep deprived lose less weight. My goal is to be in bed by 11:30 and I can read until 12 if I'm not tired.
No. 4: I am long winded when I write. I have fun and giggle which is not a bad thing but it's unrealistic to think that I can do this daily. My plan is to blog at the beginning or end of the week with my plans for the week. This may include menus, news, weight loss, or break throughs in my world.
No. 5: So good old Rube is helping again... while watching her show a couple of weeks ago Tinny from OA was talking about how fat people avoid mirrors. I do this and I often think I'm not as fat as I am. I want to actually see myself and learn to love me for me. I also think part of that is actually posting my real weight on here. I'm sure you guys (my none readers, lol) figured out my star date BS. I'd tell you my weight today but I didn't weigh.
What I've done so far:
- Monday 10 minutes
- Tuesday off
- Wednesday 15 minutes
I also asked my doc to give me more Metformin to help with the metabolic syndrome associated with my PCOS. I haven't taken any for several years but I picked up the prescription yesterday even though I haven't taken any yet. I thought it might help me drop that 50 pounds I want to lose this year. Wish me luck cuz I gotta fly... TV Wednesday my bitches, TV Wednesday.
