January 31st
I will never EVER cheat again!!!! I feel so gross this morning! I didn't even track what I ate. Gross, gross, gross!!!! The good thing about life, is there's always a new day. I know I can start over today. I know I will NOT be doing that again. It's ok to eat a treat, but I will not do what I did yesterday. My belly hurts...sad face. Ok, so I need to move on...
I am officially eating for my race. Nothing but good food from here on out. I am super excited about this. The good thing about this is, my family will be eating very healthy (my husband) too. I also am ramping up my exercise routine.
You know, I previously said I am going to move on. But I learned something yesterday. I have worked very hard this month. I don't want to go back to the old Melanie. Yesterday was an excuse to go back to the Melanie ways. I would always cheat on Sundays and think, "Ok, ok, this is it I am going to be strict"...and then fall off the wagon a few days later. I have cheated starting the follow through club. But it was always one more meal, this was the first time I did this in a month. Just because I am going to make a change with my diet (not diet diet, but how I eat) didn't mean I HAVE to make an excuse to be a PIG yesterday. I am not going to make any more excuses to cheat. I didn't have to cheat yesterday, but I did it. I am going to take what I have learned this month and make a life change. You will no longer hear me making anymore excuses.
Yesterday made me realize I should add another goal. I will try and not make anymore excuses this year.
Goals
**Run
**200 sit ups/30 push ups
**Finish up all work related paperwork
**Laundry
My 5's
>>Grateful we can start over ever day
>>Naps
>>Eating at the Frontier twice in one week
>>New bras
>>My husband bettering himself by getting an higher education

Cheat Day!!
January 30th
Yes, today I am cheating. Why you ask? I have my race March 6th, I need to really watch what I put in my pie hole next month. Plus, I am signing up for a 10k next Sunday. When I run races on Sundays, I always watch what am eating and drinking during the week. Clean food and only water. That means no eating bad during Superbowl. Can I do this? That will be the real test.
Yesterday, I didn't tackle the garage. I will get it done today...I think...I hope! I will, I know I will!!! I accomplished my two other goals yesterday. I had a great run. I also did the date with my honey. It's really good to go out and have an adult conversation with him.
So today there are minimal goals.
Goals
**Tackle garage
**Some laundry
**Be nice
My 5's
>>Grateful for monthly date nights
>>In Laws that love watching the kids
>>My running partner
>>A good cup of coffee
>>Shape and gossip magazines

Hmm...
January 29th
I think I am going to take Jenna's advice and weigh in on Friday's. I will start next Friday though. I really have nothing to say today. Hmm...I didn't do a lot of the things on my list yesterday. I ran out of time to run. First I flaked on my partner, then he did it to me. But I will be running in a half hour.
I don't think I am going to go nuts on the food during Superbowl. I ate like a big fat man last night, and damn it didn't feel good to have that, oh soo stuffed feeling. I will taste all the yummy food.
So today, hmm...oh yeah the garage.
Goals
**Run
**Hit up the garage
**Date with the husband
My 5's
>>So grateful for my babies and honey
>>My mother--she is my rock
>>My company--I work in corporate America, but it's not run by corporate assholes
>>My health
>>My Follow Through Club--w/o this group, I probably would have quit WW's after the fourth day
I'm kind of out of it this morning. I hope all of you have a FABULOUS weekend.

PS-It's January...I know, but are we going to have a Follow Through part at the end of the year?

FRIDAY!!!!
January 28th
So ladies, I feel like this week has been a whirlwind! Phew, I am so glad I am working from home today, oh and it's FRIDAY!!!! Oh how I love and cherish my weekends. We are on a break from sports for a couple of weeks, so I am going to take advantage of it!! When soccer starts, Saturdays will be full and don't get me started when baseball starts...just call me the team mom (my husband is coaching) . Where did I ever imagine myself having kids and being the corporate soccer mom? WTH??? So why am I blabbing all this out on my blog you ask? Well with a couple of weekends free, I am going to add my second goal in...slowly.
I want to really get my house organized. I have a lot of items I need to sell. I have a medla breast pump I would like to sell. This weekend I really am going to focus on my garage. It is going to be a long process, but I will start on Saturday or Sunday. Any takers to buy my junk? Come on, I have like 5 strollers I need to get rid of! And don't ask me why I have five strollers...maybe to match my shoes? Who knows!
I didn't run this morning. I didn't wake up in time...don't ask! Since I am working from home, I will get a run out today. I really need to break up my running schedule, I don't want to strain anything. I need to get with my running partner today. I hope he's not mad for snubbing him this morning! Run, run, run...I just hope I don't loose my BUTT!!!!! Hey what happened to Big Booty Judy? Now she looks like Pancake Pam! No pancake butt for me!!!!
I better get going. Let's go team!!!
Goals
**Run, run, run
**200 sit ups/30 push ups
**Send out bills (I need checks!!)
**Catch up on blogs
**Laundry---I have a weeks worth of laundry I need to catch up with. Our washer was having problems. The washer was not draining water...I suggest if you have a front load washer to clean the filter OFTEN. You will be surprised with what you find in there!!!

I thought it was Friday...sad face
January 27th
Damn it! I thought it was Friday. It's my turn to host family dinner this week. I have fajitas and margaritas planned. So, what should I focus on today? Oh yeah, throwing that stupid ass scale out. Hmm, do you thing anyone would like to buy it on Craigslist? I have a few goals for today.
Have I told you how excited I am about my run? I have a month until this Phat/Fat butt runs 13.1 miles. WTH!!!! I am adding more races to my goals for the year. But let me get through this one first then I'll add my next. I wonder if I can do the Vegas full in December? Hmm...Na. Let me get through this one first.
I defiantly have an addictive personality. Good thing I never got into drugs! Ha, I really should joke about that, yikes!!! But going back to the that personality. I am surprised I have stayed with running as long as I have. This is my one year anniversary. Thank you Alice for getting me into this great sport!!!
So I have to go...I love this. I know I sound sappy, but I TRULY believe this blog has helped me stick to my goals<--at least the weight loss goal! Thanks Theresa!!! Now I need to really focus on my other goals!
Let's go team!!!
Goals
**Run 3-4 miles
**200 sit ups/30 push ups
**Work on fundings (work)
**Pay Bills

Stupid Scale
I hate Starbucks!!!! I hate the banana walnut bread!!!! If I hated it so much, why do I eat it so much!!! Damn you 13pt banana walnut bread!!!
I had a good day with my boss. He leaves tomorrow. And I get to go back to my regular schedule. So, what else?
Oh yeah, I broke one of my goals! I stepped on my scale today, and what the heck? I lost the 2lbs I gained. So, I really think I need to start weighing in on Wednesday's. Am I psyching myself out by weighing on Wednesdays? Does it gives me two days to loose the two pounds I gain on the weekend? I give up, I am just going to through that damn scale out the window and just take measurements twice a month. Or, I have these white capri's that don't exactly fit yet and measure my weight lose that way. What the hell!!! I hate scales!!!!!!!!!!!!
I am running tomorrow and hitting body pump. I also will be working on something else...just need to figure it out. Good night, I am rambling....
PS--I WILL be back to my regular blog schedule tomorrow.

Long day! More to come...
January 25th
I worked a long day today. My boss is in town. I spun, I worked, I'm pooped. I still have work to take care, get the kids showered and some how have time to get some sleep in...
I need to get back to being organized, recycling, and I am adding a debt diet. Yep, I was doing good with the whole cutting down on my debt, until some unexpected items popped up. Doesn't look like I will be heading to Vegas anytime soon. This weekend I will get all my bills out and crunch some numbers. Hopefully I can pay down half of my debt by December. Let's see how it goes.
The only goal I had for today was spin...boring. I hate blogging at night. I'll see you in the morning.
Nighty, nighty hotties...

Two Steps Forward, One Step Back
January 24th
So, I gained weight this week! I lost 2lbs last week and gained it back this week! No worry here, I am exercising like a mad woman. No worry, because that's gotta be muscle. Also, reading the article about the scale helped me refrain from freaking out. Thank you Jenna! I measured myself this morning. I have lost inches since the last time I measured in May 2010.
I had a good run yesterday. I didn't organize anything, but I did the rest of the items on my list yesterday. It was a nice day!
I have to get to work. So Ladies, I hope you have a fabulous day!!! Let's go team!
**Spin (tonight)
**200 sit ups/30 push ups
**Sales call notes!!!

What Happened to Tom Nicole's first set of kids??
January 23rd
Am I the only one that wonders what happened to Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman's first set of kids? Did they give them back to the adoption agency now that they have their "real" kids? I am only wondering, because we don't hear about them anymore. That's kind of what happened to some of my goals. This monster took over and I became obsessed with loosing weight. I need to focus on all of my goals equally.
It's seems like all I talk about is what I eat, when I exercise and what I am doing right or wrong. I also notice looking in the mirror a little more. I am counting the days until Feb 1st to put up before and after pics. Oh, I forgot to tell you...I will be posting a pic every month. I also have a chart for every month to estimate my weight loss. I can't wait to see if I am on track with the chart. Ok, so it's not like I am trying to loose 15 lbs a month. The weight loose varies from 5-7 lbs. I am getting obsessed with this!!! Help me!!!
I need to focus when on the rest of my goals, like I do with this weight loss goal!!!! I am looking at my desk right now, and it's slowly turning into a mess. I will reintroduce myself to the shredder. I also want to start on the garage today. I have so much STUFF that can be sold on craigslist.
So yesterday I didn't blog, it was a loooonnnngggg day! I ran, oh how this was a great run. I did about 5 miles with hills. My legs are feeling it today. Adam wrestled last night, but we had to weigh in at noon, I took Adam to weigh in then we stayed ABQ, did lunch, the museum and park. We didn't get out of the meet until 10.00 pm. It was a long day!
Hey Teresa and Alisa----West Mesa SUCKS!!! Oh wait that wasn't nice. I am sorry. They are just very unorganized and dumb.
So today's goals included:
**Run
**200 sit ups/30 push ups
**Clean and organize desk
**Get items ready to sell on Craigslist
**Cook for football
**Google Tom and Nick's first kids
Ladies, I will treat all of my "kids" equal and work on all of my goals. With how wacky Tom is, maybe it's better for those kids to back to the orphanage.
Let's go team!!

I'm going home!
January 21st
I love Tacoast! A lot of restaurants have moved from Mexico into El Paso. This is not your typical taco dive. This is not typical greasy Mexican food. When you bite into the fish taco, you suddenly are transported to a beach, the sun and the only thing that's missing is a beer and no worries! The boys that run this shop are culinary genius's. Thank God I'm leaving today...or I would have overdosed on more food today!
I didn't do that bad yesterday. I should have not eaten the club at Corner Bakery, but it was good and I was hungry and all I had for breakfast was almonds and I deserve it and I miss my family and and and and and I SHOULD HAVE HAD THE TURKEY AND MUSTARD!!! That's ok. I think to myself, as long as it's not 20 pts of Whataburger or McDonald's. Oh, and I didn't eat the chips.
I didn't follow through with work goals. I did leave early yesterday, but I stopped at Dillard's. My feet were killing me, so I decided to buy some flats, oh and some blouses. So, I didn't see all my dealers on my list yesterday. I didn't complete my dealer calls yesterday either. I blame it on getting in late and well, you know jumping on fb and reading everyone's blogs. Did I just blame this on you? Shit, I need to add something else to my goals; MAKE NO EXCUSES!
I am going to become a better rep. I will concentrate on having more reports and making dealers accountable. There's more to this, but I really don't want to but you to sleep.
Another goal, write a short blog!
Did I mention, I am going home today? Oh yeah, oh yeah!! I miss my babies...
Goals
**200 sit ups/30 push ups

Here Fishy, Fishy...
January 20th
Good morning...I didn't have any sushi last night. I did though, have fish for lunch and dinner. I kind of had sushi...I had seared ahi tuna for dinner. It was good. Anyways, today I am going to focus on a few items today.
I am going to watch what I eat today. I went over yesterday. It wasn't as bad as Tuesday; 13 WW pts over. I only went 4 pts over. I would have been 6 pts under if I wouldn't have had a bloody mary and a half of a club soda/vodka. This weekend I will not have any cocktails. I am going to stay away from the bloody mary's. Ok, it sounds like I am a lush! I used to be a DRUNK, like 10 years ago. BP; before Paul. (T and Alisa, I don't drink like college Melanie, phew who can?) I am going to stay away from the cocktails going forward. That's wasted points..
I am also going to leave earlier today. I got out at 10 am yesterday and I worked until 7.30 and only saw 7 dealers. I missed 3, lets hope I get everyone in today.
Eat healthy today. Salad, salad and more salads today. Let's see where my family takes me tonight.
Goals for today:
**200 sit ups/30 push ups
**Visit all dealers
**Eat Healthy
**Complete sales call notes

She goes on and on and on and on...
January 19th
So I know I blogged late last night, and I'm already on it this morning. But I need stay with my routine. So nothing to report since my last blog...
I slept...and no eating. Thanks Carmen for the great advice. Sleep=no fork ups!
I got a response back from Trader Joe's. It was computer generated and I know no one really read it. But that's not stopping me!!! Momma is sick and tired of Wal Mart being my only option for groceries. I don't buy meat there. I wouldn't recommend anyone buying meat there...they inject oxygen into their meat so it looks fresh. Once you break it up (hamburger meat), it's brown and nasty. I also try to stay away from produce when I can. I will make a change in my community, and this is it! Belen is getting a REAL grocery store. We have another one in town, but it smells like Juarez when you walk in. I have bought bread and cheese there when I got to the bottom of both, I noticed mold! Whether it be Trader Joe's or Albertson's...
I started recycling a few months ago (don't judge me, not very many options for recycling centers). I am also going to research how to make compost. My lifetime goal is to eliminate Waste Management completely. No, I am not a tree hugger, (there's nothing wrong with treehuggers, hell my best friend is one). But as I look at what my family is throwing out, heck 95% of our trash is recyclable. Maybe that 5% I can sneak into my neighbors trash can...hee hee.
Another long term goal is to sell baby items on craigslist. I have a nice Medela breast pump, strollers, junk, junk and more junk. I wonder if anyone is interested in buying my junk? I also have a timeshare I want to get rid of...any takers? Selling these items just makes my life less cluttered.
I better get my phat/fat ass off the this bed and on the treadmill (damn you treadmill!). I hope this day is wonderful for the rest of my Sista's. Oh, and the weather report in El Paso is....72, I know I shouldn't brag. It's going to be breezy if that makes you feel better?
Let's Go Team!
Same goals as last night...
The Fat Girl and Her Goals aka Big Booty Judy aka Phatty McPhatterson aka That Crazy Lady that Hates Belen, Why the Hell Doesn't She Just Move! aka Hey There Goes That Lady...Isn't She My Momma? aka Smellanie aka Wilbur aka Loudmouth aka Hey You aka Mel
So I know I blogged late last night, and I'm already on it this morning. But I need stay with my routine. So nothing to report since my last blog...
I slept...and no eating. Thanks Carmen for the great advice. Sleep=no fork ups!
I got a response back from Trader Joe's. It was computer generated and I know no one really read it. But that's not stopping me!!! Momma is sick and tired of Wal Mart being my only option for groceries. I don't buy meat there. I wouldn't recommend anyone buying meat there...they inject oxygen into their meat so it looks fresh. Once you break it up (hamburger meat), it's brown and nasty. I also try to stay away from produce when I can. I will make a change in my community, and this is it! Belen is getting a REAL grocery store. We have another one in town, but it smells like Juarez when you walk in. I have bought bread and cheese there when I got to the bottom of both, I noticed mold! Whether it be Trader Joe's or Albertson's...
I started recycling a few months ago (don't judge me, not very many options for recycling centers). I am also going to research how to make compost. My lifetime goal is to eliminate Waste Management completely. No, I am not a tree hugger, (there's nothing wrong with treehuggers, hell my best friend is one).

Wahhh, I miss my babies...sad face
January 18th
I miss my babies...is it Friday yet? I am traveling this week. I am tired of this...
Oh and I also ate very poorly for dinner. I ate very well until it hit dinner time! Instead of choosing the child's chicken and a salad at Chile's...my emotions got to me and I picked that ever so delightful buffalo chicken salad. And I drank a beer while waiting for it. Why did I eat all of it? I was starving, could be my excuse but I kind of felt satisfied after drinking the tomato beer. NO MORE BEER AND JUNK!!!
Before that happened, I ate really well. I ate well for breakfast and snacked on my veggies, nuts and fruits. I only had 10 pts for dinner. This is only because I had 2 tlb of peanut butter and 1/4 cup of almonds. But that's all good fat.
I don't think I am doing well with the whole "nice" thing. There are far too many dumbass's I come in contact with. WTH, some of my dealers are jackwagons<--took this from one of my smarter dealers. Tomorrow I will work on being nice.
I didn't see all my dealers, but I started late. Although I started late, I had some really good dealer calls.
I emailed Trader Joe's about possibly researching the demographics of Valencia County <---does that sound right? Oh, well let's see if these non-corporate folks take me serious. Wonder if I can get the community to email Trader Joe's. Another goal this year; get a REAL grocery store in Belen.
Did I mention I am tired? Well I am, and it's almost Friday.
**Workout
**200 sit ups/30 push ups
**Be Nice
**Work until 7pm
Let's go team!!!

165.8 and after stuffing my face this weekend!
January 17th
Wow...I don't know about you but Ricky Gervais was hilarious! I just wanted throw that out. I threw everything out the window this weekend. I ate bad, did not exercise, sat on my ass watching Ricky Gervais make fun of A-listers in front of their faces and while doing that I still lost....1.8 lbs!!! Woo Hoo!!! That makes me, 165.8. I was feeling bad for falling off the wagon, until I stepped on the scale.
This weekend, my Follow Through Sisters have made me realize something. I shouldn't be so hard on myself. I snacked and was lazy yesterday. I don't regret what I did, (it was hard though). But at the same token, I am going to follow through with the rest of my journey. I said I am only going to cheat ONE day not the whole weekend. I am going to get back on track. I want to see another week of an almost 2 lb weight loss. I would like to be 160 by Superbowl. Maybe I can save all my cheat days for Superbowl Sunday. Thanksgiving binge eating has nothing on Superbowl Sunday in my house!
So I know I am throwing out random ideas and confusing the hell out of you. But some how in my brain it all makes sense. So, I will be in El Paso this week. This is going to be so tempting to blow my diet. I have planned to pack fruits, vegtables, some lunch meat, nuts, raisins, you know the basics. I do fairly ok when I am in El Paso, until my dealers want to meet for happy hour or dinner, which in El Paso will consist of chips, salsa, flautas and 300 calorie margaritas. I will try and stay away from the, oh so good Mexican food and eat healthy. I know what you're thinking, is there healthy in El Paso? Because there is basically nothing to do in El Paso, there are numerous restaurants. One of my favorites has sushi happy hour...don't judge me. Yes in fact I eat sushi in El Paso and I LOVE IT!
Plus, exercise...I will definitely do spin tomorrow morning. But the treadmill in the hotel and myself DO NOT get along. How can someone who can run a 10k, run out of breath at the 2 mile mark on a treadmill? I don't get it? I will check out a gym that's somewhat in the middle of town and get a schedule of classes. If I stick to my exercise schedule some how this week and behave myself with the caloric intake...it should be VERY promising next Monday.
So the goals I post today will be for the whole week. I will journal every morning to let my Sisters know how I am doing. Have a fabulous week, and thank you for letting my be apart of this. I definitely get a sense of community with my fellow Follow Through Sisters. I look forward to reading everyone's blogs every day. As I sign off, I will take a line from the email I send out to my buyers every morning...LET'S GO TEAM!!!!
Goals
**Run/Spin--check on the running. Going to try and get spin in tonight, and if I don't..oh well
**200 sit ups/30 push ups
**Eat right
**Complete follow up (work related)
**Stay away from the sausage--made this morning for the family; 6 WW pts for one patty, yikes!

Beer Good...Beer Bad
January 16th
What were my goals yesterday? I think I forgot what I was supposed to do. I think I did them all...hmmm. So I ate and drank. I probably used all my WW pts yesterday included activity points, allowance points and all of your points too! We ended up spending the night at the Embassy. One of the perks of traveling for my job, never every paying for rooms! I LOVE the Embassy. Who wouldn't? Free cocktails and snacks, who could go wrong? So I drank beer. Beer is good and refreshing, but not the amount I drank. I didn't do to bad with my dinner. I ate a salmon BLT and only at half the bun. But I did consume my fries and everyone else's..............so I will retract my statement, I DID do bad at dinner.
I didn't run, dang it! I did go swimming for an hour. I held a 47 lb boy on my back and a 23 lb girl and squatted the whole time. But in the water they are more like, 10 lbs total. How many activity points do you think I earned?
I will TRY and run today. I am fearing I will be not seeing the scale move tomorrow. That's ok, right? Please tell me it's ok. Well I don't blame that damn scale to not move after eating my weight in french fries.
I have to attend a birthday party today for some little kid. Just kidding he's not some little kid. He's my husband's cousins kid. Good thing I won't waste my points at the party. I really don't like their cooking. Is that mean? Is that not being nice? Ok, so they forget to use any sort of seasoning. I don't think they own the basics, salt and pepper.
I was nice yesterday...at least to my own judgement I was.
No sit ups or push ups.
Dang it, I didn't do well at all yesterday!!! Do I get do ever?
Today's a lazy day, here's what I am going to focus on:
**Run--maybe
**200 sit ups/30 push ups
**Be Nice
**Keep house clean
Ladies, I hope you have a rest full day!

The brides pregnant...no surprise
January 15th
It's Saturday...my running partner can't make it and I missed Bodypump. That's ok, I will work exercise into my schedule today. I kind of have a lot to do on this fine Saturday. I have to do some major grocery shopping. So major that I had to buy breakfast burritos from Blake's LotaBurger this morning. BTW, Momma watched and was not tempted to take a bite. Those burritos are yummy...Alisa if you are still in the 505 and reading this, I suggest you have one. Or maybe half, the tortilla is probably a whole day's worth of WW pts. I also have attend a bridal shower. The bride is pregnant, is it ghetto of me to make my gift diapers? Well she is pg, so that's ghetto in itself.
I have been thinking about my life, and this blog. I AM NOT going to take life so serious. I am going to add some humor to this blog. Ok, humor to me...
Yesterday I didn't dwell about the confrontation between my father and me. I received a response to my email. Hey ASSHOLE, we are not selfish. Last time I checked, you walked out on US...so you can take THAT to the bank! That's one of his favorite sayings, "I'll take it to the bank." I am and will stand my ground. Anyways, enough about that.
This fatty or phatty (depending on which state you live in)** needs to get out and run. But again to the schedule...grocery shopping, bridal shower, weigh ins (wrestling) and happy hour at the Embassy. I have a shit load of points with Hilton. My son has a wrestling tournament in ABQ and Paul's going out. So it sounds easier to just use some points, stay the night in ABQ so we can wake up a little later and Paul can stay out a little longer. That's how I am going to justify our obsession with hotels.
About last night...no girls night out. I was in bed by 9.15...WTF?!?!?! So I guess I will make it up by have happy hour at the Embassy. (Trying to convince my sister to stay with us)
I know I am throwing items out of nowhere but...my closet is still clean...yay for me! Usually if I clean it, in a few days it looks like an episode of hoarders.
Goals for today
**Get my fat/phat ass out in the clean country air and RUN
**200 sit ups/30 push ups--BTW, those are girly push ups.
**Grocery shop/gift for bridal shower---I can do that all in the same store...I need to move!!!!!!!!
**Be Nice
Ladies, have a fabulous day. I must go...coffee kicked in.
The Fat Girl and Her Goals
PS----TAPS, I DID use my inner chola when confronting my father.
PSS--The title was funny and hopefully a eye catcher. I apologize if you wanted to hear more about the pg bride and little less about mine..hee hee I know you all LOVE reading this.

Keeping my mouth shut or Standing my ground?
January 14th
Yesterday was emotionally draining. I am not going to get into the details of what happened. I'll keep it short and to the point...my father is crazy. I got fed up with him and tried to put him in his place. While I was resonding back to his email I thought of what I wanted to write. I didn't put down in words what I really wanted to say, instead I nicely told him what I have been thinking, with apologizing a couple of times. Now looking back at what had happened, I should have not send anything at all. But really, why do I act like I have a backbone and then become a coward? People think I am strong willed and will not stand for anyone's bullshit. In all reality, I all I want is for people to like me. What the heck???
This has happened before. I get the balls to tell someone how I feel...then opps that tough bitch everyone thinks I am cowards down and looses her backbone. The problem boils down to me being liked. I hate it when someone is mad at me. I even hate it even more when someone doesn't like me. Yesterday was a result of saying, heck with it...I am going to defend my siblings and if you don't like it, oh well!
This is another goal I am going to work on this year. Like all of my goals this year, they are going to be very challenging. I need to stand my ground. I am not going to change my opinion because someone doesn't agree with me. The backbone will not magically disappear when a tough situation comes into place; whether it be in my personal life or in my career.
But life is easier when I keep my mouth shut. Before yesterday, I just tell each party to apologize. I don't know, I am so confused. I'll figure this out soon. It's easy to be liked, but I want to be respected.
Anyways, I dont' want you to think my life is in shambles. In fact I have a great life, minus this hiccup. I need to focus on my children and husband. I hope you all have a FABULOUS weekend. I know I am going try and NOT dwell on what happened.
BTW, I stuck to my goals yesterday. I watched, (if you count it as TV) a half hour of the Upside Down Show (Nick Jr) and I think 5 minutes of the office. This weekend will consist of wrestling tournaments, running and finding some time in my schedule to catch up on ABC's Wednesday night shows and NBC's Thursday night shows. This should be Saturday night, since my husband is going out with the boys. And I am going out with the girls tonight.
Ladies, thanks for reading this fat girls blog, yawn...where's the redbull?
Goals for today
**Zumba--check
**200 sit ups/30 push ups
**Focus on my family
**Don't stress over yesterday's events---the hardest of them all.

Math??
January 12th
Yesterday was a long day...I left the house at 6.30 am and didn't get home until 8.30 pm. I didn't accomplish very much in the hour and half I had before going to bed. So, I did the thinkable...I sat on the couch ate popcorn and watched my all time favorite show. I love the office, especially the episodes BC Pam and Jim wedding. AD Pam and Jim are good too, but nothing beats the old shows. While I was doing that, my husband was doing homework. I am getting to the point of this story...I am going back to school.
This is going to be one of my goals (long term). I don't know if it's my personality of, hey look at me, look at me. I guess since my husband is going to school (if you can do it, so can I watch, and everyone will say, wow Melanie you're the best and awesome...you're my hero), so maybe I should too?? Really, right now I am looking at taking ONE math class. I am not the brightest bulb in the bunch. I couldn't even help him with his algebra. What's going to happen when my kids ask me for help, I can't? The semester has already started, so I defiantly will be doing something in the summer. Add, school to my list of goals this year. I really can't take more than one class at a time, only because I have a lot on my plate, plus my husband is going full time right now. Oh, and my son is in sports all year long.
Maybe I should work on my ego and competitiveness???? Do I make any sense to you? I don't if I make sense to me sometimes...
Now for my daily goal...today I am going to...hmmmmm. Visit all the dealers on my schedule today. It's simple.
**Spin--did this morning
**200 sit ups/30 push ups
**Complete dealer call list
Is it Friday yet?
The Fat Girl and Her Goals
Yesterday was a long day...I left the house at 6.30 am and didn't get home until 8.30 pm. I didn't accomplish very much in the hour and half I had before going to bed. So, I did the thinkable...I sat on the couch ate popcorn and watched my all time favorite show. I love the office, especially the episodes BC Pam and Jim wedding. AD Pam and Jim are good too, but nothing beats the old shows. While I was doing that, my husband was doing homework. I am getting to the point of this story...I am going back to school.
This is going to be one of my goals (long term). I don't know if it's my personality of, hey look at me, look at me. I guess since my husband is going to school (if you can do it, so can I watch, and everyone will say, wow Melanie you're the best and awesome...you're my hero), so maybe I should too??

Rest
January 11th
Good morning! I am resting my body today. My legs are sore!! That's such a good thing. Plus I have a long work day. I am heading to Farmington this morning. It's a 12 hour work day today. Don't feel sorry for me...half of it is driving. So, really it's a normal day for me. I have one thing I must accomplish today; visit all the dealers on my list. That's it, no more no less.
I cleaned my closet last night. Good thing I did it, I found a pair of black heels I forgot I had! Woo Hoo, I just need to get new caps for the heel. I walk so awkward, the heels wear out at an angel. Anyhoo, I have three pairs of shoes I need to repair. I also have two bags of clothes and shoes to donate. I have a bag from the kids closet that needs to go too. Ok so this is my goal for tomorrow: drop off clothes at Adelente.
Alrighty ladies, I must go and get ready for the day! Peace, love and happiness to all of you!

Hello All!
January 10th
I am here writing my blog starting week two. I know it's only week two, but this is one of my goals that I really following through with. It has also made me follow through on my weight loss goal. Like I said, it's only week two, but I need to work on my other goals too. I have realized that this a day by day challenge. If I can keep up with the weight loss goal the rest will fall into place.
With that said, today I will be working from home today. I have a lot to accomplish today. I need to get all my admin finished, and I need to complete all follow up. I know this is boring to you. I will not leave my office.
I also need to make my home less cluttered. Now, I don't want you to think I am slob. You can probably eat off of my floor, but I wouldn't suggest you looking in my drawers, closets or garage. Today's goal is to clean my closet out. This will probably be done tonight after dinner and the kids are in bed. So I have saved clothes that used to fit me. Well they fit me, and guess what...they are out of style!! You know you have done this...Oh I can't throw this out...I am going to fit in this one of these days. Well one of these days for me has showed up. I have a pair of pants I saved from 10 years ago. Oh no, I can't wear them, they are totally the wrong shade. Seriously who are we kidding? Unless I want to keep them for 25 years or more so the trend can come back around, I am just going to donate the clothes. My house is totally parallels me, looks nice and well put together on the outside, but when you dig in deep it's a mess. My life is a disorganized mess, kind of like my closet. I need to work on this...ya think?
I went to spin this morning. I LOVE exercise...maybe it's the endorphins. But I feel so much better afterwards. And to think I was going to sleep in today. I think I will go out and do something after work today. I can't wait for it to get warm outside. I love taking the kids out in the jogging stroller. I really think, if I continue on this path I will be hitting my goal sooner than December. Woo, hoo!!!!!!! Bye bye, inertube!

Oh man...
January 7th
Oh man, I ate really bad yesterday!!! This always happens to me when I step on the scale. I replaced the batteries in my scale. I stepped on the scale and noticed the numbers. Wow, I am doing soo good!!!! Every time I step on the scale and lose a pound or two, I reward myself by eating and eating and eating. So that means I am adding something else to my weight loss goal. First, I am only going get on the scale once a week. For some reason, this Big Booty Judy likes to get on the scale every morning before getting in the shower. No more going crazy with it!!! Second, I WILL NOT be rewarding myself with FOOD when I lose a few pounds!!!! Can I do this? Yes I can but it's going to be really hard!
Like I said, I ate and ate and ate and ate some more! I started out with a very healthy breakfast. At lunch is where the downward spiral started. Whole Foods sounds healthy...right? Not if you get a chicken curry wrap! I am craving Indian food, but I know how unhealthy it is and after I eat it I feel like I do after eating Thanksgiving dinner. So I decided to get the wrap, forgetting this is just chicken salad with curry powder. I am not going to bore you with the rest of the details of my horrible diet. But it did include my guilty pleasure, warm and crispy tortilla and butter (HEAVEN)...oh man.
Oh well I am starting today off right. I started my day with Zumba class. Packing a lunch, but not touching it before 10.30! I am also super excited for this weekend. I can finally get out and run Saturday and Sunday with somewhat normal temperatures outside.
Why are we all so concerned about weight loss? Really think about it...is it for our health? At least that's what we say it is for. But come on, it's for vanity...you know it is just admit it! Doesn't feel good to hear, damn Gina you look HOT!! And not, get your big'ol butt out of the way...I don't know about you but I am all about the compliments. I also would like to sit down with out looking like I have an inner tube under my shirt! I am going to admit it, I like looking DAMN SMOKIN HOT!!!!!! Things in my life fall together when I feel good about myself.
Back to yesterday, I didn't go to Costco...sad face. Costco will have to wait for Saturday. I hate Costco on the weekends. I still need some sales call notes to finish...sad face. (But the majority are done.)
Today's Goals:
**Exercise
**200 sit ups/30 push ups
**Stay within my WW points
**Be Nice!!!
Ladies, thank you for the inspiration everyday when I read your blogs!! I am woman hear me roar...RRROOOOAAARRRRRRR!!!!

Is it Friday yet?
January 6th
Yesterday was very productive in every area of my life. I saw my Grandma, did a lot at work, took my son to wrestling practice and exercised. I am so ready for the weekend. Today my goals will focus on my work day. I will defiantly visit all of my dealers on my schedule today. I will also finish up all of my sales call notes from the previous month and this week.
I didn't mention my new goal, being nice. Well, I really wanted to to be mean. I stopped myself a few times. I think it went well, considering. So this morning isn't going very well. I just saw a commercial with Tom Udall's wife...wow she's old. I meant, how nice she's worried about our children's health. And on the news, Robert Gibs is leaving and will join the private sector. At first I thought, YES!! Porky Pig and his is stutters will no longer be on TV. (I am not calling him Porky Pig because I think he is fat, but because he's the stutter machine.) What I really mean is, good luck.
Have a great day today!
**Visit ALL my dealers on my list
**Finish sales call notes
**Costco...I desperately need to do this one!!
**200 sit ups/30 push up
Ladies, thank you again for the inspiration, to keep on going!
PS--I have seen two commercials for 66 Diner, I WANT A MILKSHAKE!!!!

To-Do Lists
January 5th
This has been something I have really enjoyed. But how long can I do this? I know it's week one, but I don't want to get into a rut. I don't want this to turn into a public to-do list. There are so many areas of my life I need to work on. But as I keep thinking about it, one thing is behind it. I DON'T follow through. Every eliminate of my life starts out great and then I guess I get bored? Anyways, I am not going to try and make this a to-do list blog...
Yesterday I went grocery shopping. As I strolled up and down the aisles, I kept looking at other people doing the same thing. Every single person I looked at, I made a judgement on. What the heck are people thinking? I know you have more than pajamas in your wardrobe! And really, if you are more than a C cup, please put a bra on. And why are you talking loud on your cell phone? I roll my eyes and get frustrated with the not so, first rate citizens of Belen. But, who am I to judge? I don't know them, I don't know their story. For all I know, they could be judging me...who does that woman think she is?
I am adding to my list of goals for 2011. I am going to TRY and not judge people. I would like to follow through with this goal. But talking about people in a negative way, can sometimes be fun. Did I just say that? Oh yes I did!!! I am not a good person...sad face. Do you know how hard this is for me? Terribly hard!!! I am going to try my best...dear God, please help me. Let's see how this goes..
On to my next item for today, my Grandma. I have not been very close to my dad's mom. She's not doing well. I am going to make the effort today to visit with her. I am going to see her this morning. It's not fair to her that I was not as close to her as I was my Nana.
On to my weight loss goal. I didn't workout yesterday...sad face. I did go to spin this morning. I will be running tomorrow morning, if it is 20 degrees or above!! Big Booty Judy is on the move!!!
Food, is good. I am like a man. Men love women, they don't discriminate...they love all shapes and sizes. That's how I see my food, I love it all!! So, to stay on track. I am going to follow Weight Wathcers all week and give myself Sunday for my cheat day. Before, I would do ok during the week and eat like a big fat man on the weekends. I ate at Chili's last night. I had a childs grilled chicken breast and a side salad with 1 tlb of dressing. Seriously, that satisfied me! That's my go to meal anytime I am at Chili's. Unfortunately that's one of the only "good" resturants in Valencia County.
So, I am not going to treat this as to-do list blog. But I do have my list at the end...I don't make any sense!?!? This blog is not a to-do list blog, but low and behold there's my list. Whatever.
I think this is therapeutic. Thanks, T for this great idea. I am going to work hard on my daily goals and long term goals!

I Hate Mondays
January 4th
Yes, I hate Mondays...who doesn't? Yesterday I worked from home. For two days, I didn't leave the house! I also snaked ALL day long...I snack all day long every Monday. I need to learn how to have self control. I guess I did yesterday because, I didn't get tempted to eat the New Years Eve leftovers or my go to snack, Stacie's Pita Chips. Hmm, it DOES make a difference when you write everything down. I ate veggies, hummus and popcorn. I am in love with air popped popcorn. Three cups are only 2 points! Wooza!!!
I ran last night. I didn't get in three miles...sad face. I only ran two miles, I can make excuses to why I didn't run three, it was cooolllddd, I still have a cough and my shoes feel weird. I just need to run more!!! I did my sit ups and push ups.
I was soo close to not clean my desk. But I thought, I have a group of gals I can't let down. So yes I cleaned it. I still need to shred a ton of documents, though.
(Yawn fest for the readers)
Ok, I will be out in the field today. I will get to wear makeup (I haven't put any on for three days!) and dress up. My goals today are small ones:
**Grocery shop
**200 sit ups
**30 push ups
I was supposed to go to bodypump this morning, but didn't make it!! Baby girl slept with me and my husband slept in the living room. I didn't want to leave her by herself or was that just an excuse?
Ladies, have a wonderful day!! Enjoy the blessing God has given you...Kimmie I think you are inspiring me too!

Back to Reality
It is January 3rd. No holidays, short weeks or vacations. It's back to reality...Monday. I work from home on Monday's. Ok, I am going to get down to what I my goals are today. After work I plan to:
**Clean and organize my desk
**Print out my runners schedule
**Run the appropriate miles that are listed on my schedule
**200 sit ups
**30 push ups
I have 62 days until the El Paso Marathon. My last real run was almost a month ago and I was struggling to run four miles. Oh how pathetic! At my peak I was running seven miles. I know I can get back on track. Good bye all...until tomorrow. Oh, I'll let you know how this fat girl did today getting back into reality.

Already Behind
A friend of mine started a blog club. In this club, we would discuss our goals for the new year. We would add a new entry everyday and discuss our goals and how we are doing. I told my husband, and he said "You won't keep it up". It made me realize, I don't follow through with anything. Today is January 2nd and I am just starting my first blog. I am already behind hence the title. Only the second and am already not following through...
I am sitting on my bed writing this blog, this is my first time doing this. I have been thinking about my goals for the new year and what I should really work on. There are several items in my life I would like to fix. I really shouldn't complain; I have a great life, but it's not perfect. It seems pretty easy...following through on my ideas. I have had several plans that I have never followed through on. For instance, running for school board. I really wanted to run for school board this month, but blaimed it on my husband. He said I would never see my kids. I was kind of glad he said that and used it as an excuse but in reality, I was afraid to lose. I was also afraid to win too. What if people hated me or made the wrong discussions? I also fall behind on cleaning and organizing my house, my desk and car! This is something I am going to keep up with. No, I am not a total slob. I just keep stuff way too long. The shredder will be my new best friend! Oh, yes the last one is the cliche goal...weight loss.
Let's start from the beginning. I have always been fat. I think it started when I was around 8 or 9. But didn't notice it until I was 10 or 11. I didn't think I was fat until kids in school called me Wilbur. And at that time I started my first diet. I have been on a diet my whole life. This time it's not a diet, just a "life change". Really, I know what your thinking when I wrote, "life change". How profound, what a cheesy phrase that I can't and wouldn't want to take credit for. I have gained and lost and lost and gained. I currently have kept 30 pounds off for 2 years. I am going to go for another 30 pounds in 2011. Wow you think, why would her blog be called the Fat Girl and Her Goals. If she has lost 30 pounds is she really fat? Oh yes, I am 5'2 and 167. So let me tell you, I have fallen in love with running. I have been cheating on my love with laziness the past month. I am going to get back into the swing of things, El Paso's marathon is in March. I am going to start training for the half, a whole 13 miles. I think I can do it....wait, I know I can do it!!. My husband and I have also banded fast food from our house. I am going to stay committed to losing weight. I would like to know what it is to wear a size 6. I have never worn a size 6, except in sixth grade and that doesn't count. Do you ever wonder, hmm I have been a certain way all my life...what is it like to change? Small steps to a size 6 on December 2011.
Now that I have brought you to total boredom with my goals for the year, I just want to say one more thing before leaving. Every day is going to be an entry on how I am doing with my new life changes. I don't think it's going to be the easiest of tasks for me. This time I am going to work really hard on them. This fat girl is going to brake off the chains and move forward to a new and improved me. I hope you find this blog interesting and do not fall asleep while reading. Caution, do not operate heavy equipment while reading! Stay tuned for tomorrow's. If I keep up with this everyday, I know one goal will be done.
