to all my blogging-peeps out there
i'm going on a work-related field trip today (to the smithsonian castle) because we are having a special black-tie event there in may... not sure why i have to go but my boss said it would be good idea... anyway, since we're going during my usual workout time - i ate lunch early and headed to the gym a few minutes ago to only find my bag EMPTY of workout clothes... i guess i could've worn just socks and sneakers but alas, i didn't want to give the other people a heart-attack... i was so in the mood to workout today too, go figure... :o)
thank-you for the comments yesterday - it always amazes me at what a great group of blogging-friends i have out there... i know what i was feeling was foolish and know the numbers don't matter (which i say all the time!) but it was just one of those days when i just wasn't expecting it... i have made great strides in the last year and know my body is much healthier and happier than it ever has been, so for that i am truly thankful... i also know that the closer i get to my goal, that harder my body will refuse to give-up the weight - just a fact of life, right? anyway, i have left the pity-party and moved on to bigger and better things...
plans for tonight include meeting mom for dinner at bob evan's (need to look at their menu and plan my meal) and watching LOST... eric and i will be celebrating tomorrow night so we're going to the restaurant where we had our first 'real' date 3 years ago (meeting for drinks doesn't count as a date, in my book)... ;o)
and just for shits and giggles, check-out the new indiana jones preview... i can't wait! :o)
happy thursday...
Have a very Happy Pink Day, sweet thang!
TY, U2 girlie :)
You have come so far, and the scale will be forced to reward you eventually!
You ran 5 miles - WOW!!! Don't let the scale get you down.......I know, easier said than done! Just have a great Valentine's Day and remember that you smoking hot AND you have GREAT hair!!
HUGS to ya!
oooh black tie - that's fun. happy v-day!
Gotta hate the empty gym bag. Now, why didn't you just work out nekkid? Kidding, kidding ...
The event sounds fun!
Happy Valentine's Day!
Scales can be stupid, water retention, exercise, food all make it sway in stupid directions.
You have determination and that's what will make you succeed.
Hugs!
Happy Valentine's Day Jodi!!!!!!! I hope that you have a fantabulous weekend! :)
I know how it is Jodi. Sometimes it just takes a little while to get over the shock of something like that, but once you put it in perspective and move on, it's fine. Sounds like you've done that.
Have a great weekend!
Hey Jodi, just want to say thanks for visiting my blog and leaving a comment yesterday.
It's hard not to fixate on the numbers and be upset to see them moving in the wrong direction when we've been working so hard. Ups and downs will happen though, you just have to keep moving ahead. Looks like you've done an amazing job so far and I'm sure you'll reach your goal.
Have you seen the cartoon of the chick lying on the floor on her back - legs in the air, knees bent - and the scale balanced on the bottom of her feet? The caption reads, "Why didn't somebody teach me how to do this right the first time?"
