Lily's Diary

Jeez how scary - you've got a great attitude about it though, like you don't want it to slow you down at all .. but listen, Jersey Girl, sometimes ya just gotta listen to your body... and slow down a little... especially when it's so god awful hot and humid... you gotta take care of yourself...

PLus every last word of what Miz Scarlett said.. she's very smart... :)
 
Thanks for the concern. Its never happened in step class before. I used to do them 3 times a week. But that was a year ago. And since then, I've been very random with how often I go. I think for now I'll stick with lower impact classes. My body and my heart need to slowly ease into these types of workouts again. My body is probably also going through shock right now because of my total nutritional make-over. So right now it's mad at me because I'm not giving it candy...haha. But, with time I'll have a stronger healthier body which will not only be great overall but great for my heart. I guess I was just SOOO upset because it was a reminder that I can't do a lot of things I really want to....well I try anyway, but I have to go super slow. For example doing Down Hill biking with my BF. I love to do it and its a lot of fun. The down hill part is easy on my HR cause there's not a lot of pedaling invovled, but when it comes to going back up the hill...forget it. So yea, I don't like to think about it too much, cause it really gets me down. But I'm feeling a little better now. I'm sure I'll be back to feeling great tomorrow. :) Oh and I don't want you ladies to worry. I might be going to my bf's apartment tonight and then working in the morning. So after this evening I won't be back til tomorrow night. I didn't want any of you to think I went back the the step class and was passed out in the bathroom....



Oh and don't tell the other groups...but today was the 1st chance I got in a 2 days to weigh myself in the am...and I lost 2 pounds :) So that's two down since the formation of our Saucy Sisterhood and 4 since I started on July 3rd.
 
Hey Lily! So sorry to hear about your problems! :( If the low impact aerobics doesn't work, maybe you could get a treadmill or bike in your home? I agree with the others. You gotta listen to your body and take care of yourself. I know how frustrating it is not being able to do what you want to do, but we just have to find those exercises that we can do. ;)

Way to go on the loss! Keep up the good work Saucy Sister! :D
 
**outloud voice ** Yay on the four pounds!!!! You are now 11% of your way to goal.

**whispering voice** and two pounds for the Sisterhood. Yippee!!!!!!!

Are you feeling better today Lilyblossom?
 
..Yes, I'm feeling MUCH better today. I went to the gym and there was no passing out. Whoo-hoo. So far I burned 684 calories at the gym today. I was reading someones post, I forget whose now, but they said something about dancing before bed. What a great idea. So, at some point everyday, I'm going to dedicate at least 15 minutes to......Lily's Sexy Saucy DANCE PARTY!!!! Oh yeah, that's right, I'll be droppin it like its hot....dropping the pounds that is :p So as of right now........

Calories eaten
1236

Calories burned
684

I'm sure the calories burned will need to be adjusted after my Sexy Saucy Dance party:D...I'll report back asap
 
Hey, Lily.

I'm just reading about your episode at the gym. That sounds like a very frustrating problem to have. I can tell you are very sensible about it though and you will find a way to compensate. Congrats on the 4lbs. Fantastic. I am nervous about weighing in the FSD tomorrow. I have been eating good and exercising, but my TOM is coming. I hope I have been as successful as you. Keep up the good work. I'm glad you're on my team!
 
Pineola~ your so sweet. Don't worry about TOM....I'm currently dealing with that as well...BLAH. I'm glad your on my team too. I love you positive attitude, and I must say I was reading some of your diary just now and I just about died with laugher with your canoe/peeing story. And we all know laughed makes us lose weight :D


PS: The grand opening of Lily's Sexy Saucy Dance party was a great success. Not only was it fun, but I thought I was going to end my day with burning 684 calories...nope. I ended with burning a grand total of 1058. This will DEFINITELY be a nightly event!
 
Hey Lily,

I've just caught your diary tonight.

I'm sorry about that episode at your class, but I'm glad to hear that this last visit was event free.

Congrats on the 4 lbs and I like the sounds of you dance party LOL
 
You mentioned in my diary that you are going to school to be a teacher too.

What year are you in??? What subjects /grades do you want to teach when you are done???

I was just checking in to see how you're day was going. I hope you have a great day! :)
 
Hello everyone......I'm soooooooooooooo happy. Back in June I took a test which I have to pass in order to become a teacher. It's called the Praxis. Basically it has 4 parts, Language Arts, Math, Social Studies, and Science. Well, although I have close to a 4.0 gpa (go me), my long term memory basically doesn't exist. I really can not remember things unless I use or talk about them at least once a week. So way back when...when I learned about Presidents, bacteria, and all those other fun topics in elementary school...well they have long since left my knowledge base. I tired to study, but it was really hard since they can ask you ANYTHING. Well I've been dreading getting my scores back because I was sure I did not pass and I would have to study really hard over the rest of my summer break and keep paying a ridiculous amount of money for each test until I passed it. Well, the results are in...and I passed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm shock and really happy. So today is a great, fabulous, wonderful, SAUCY day.

In other news....I'm doing well with my diet. All healthy foods so far. I'm keeping my calorie in-take low because I'm going out to dinner with my bf...and now we have something to celebrate. But don't worry saucy sisters, I will make good choices and keep my calories right around 1200.

So far I have not exercised yet, because of the heat. I'll be going to the gym tonight once it cools down. I think this weekend I may go biking with my bf and I'm going to go roller blading :D

I'll be away from the net for the weekend. I'll defiantly be back at some point Monday so...if we are doing the mid-challenge weigh in, I'll be able to post my weight.
 
Congratulations on passing that test - as a former resident of NJ< I can attest to the fact that it definitely needs some good teachers, you're gonna be a great one!!!

Have a fantastic saucy weekend
 
Great news on the test!!! But we'd expect nothing less from you. Because not only are the Sisters saucy, but smart too. And sexy. And stylish. And sophisticated. And a whole bunch of other words that start with the letter S!!!!

Hope you had a good weekend and will talk to you on Monday.
 
Thanks for the congrats ladies!

I had fun this weekend. I'm a little frustrated I didn't lose anymore weight, but that is ok. Yesterday me and my boyfriend went exploring outside around his new apartment. His apartment is on a HUGE horse farm. Well right from the property there is a GREAT trail. I hiked a 45 pound mountain bike up it (taking lots of breaks so I wouldn't pass out and it was a slow incline) and I was so proud because I made it all the way up to the top. The best part was flying down the trails. There are a bunch of trails and it doesn't look like many people use them. Times like these I wish I had a work out buddy or something. Although my bf will go with me on the weekends (when he is not working), I would love to go hiking up it a few times a week...or really any trail for that matter. But I have this thing about not being in secluded areas alone. I guess I watched one too many crime shows. Alright, well I have a millions things I should be doing....but it is just sooo hot outside I cannot bring myself to go outside again. I guess I'll get things done around the house. I'll be back tonight to post how the rest of the day went......I'm really hoping to get to the gym!!!
 
Wow that sounds like a lot of fun... (I'd be scared to death going down the hill but i'd image it's quite a rush too..)
