April 30th
I have been gone for sometime now. My computer crashed and I didn't get on for a while. I want to let you ladies know I am doing fine. I have not lost any weight, my life is still disorganized and well...nothings changed.
I am running my second half tomorrow. So wish me luck! Oh yeah, I didn't win the weight lose challenge. I did lose 1 1/2 inches of my thighs. I guess that's good! I am rambling and just need to get this out. I think I will have a better blog tomorrow.
Ladies, I sure have missed you!! I really need to work on losing weight. I really want to look good in a bathing suit!!!

Where are you??
April 14th
Seriously, I have been PMS'ing for a week now!! I feel like that shithead I call my period is coming and then NOTHING!!! I hate feeling like this! Maybe this is the reason why I am shoving food in my mouth? I did really well yesterday with my eating, until I went with a girlfriend of mine to Ross, dress for less. I tried on a bathing suit...homegirl is NOT suit ready!!! WTF, I see myself in the mirror at the house and I think I look good and my clothes are fitting looser. But this asshole of a mirror made me look like hadn't lost 35lbs!! I know, I know, I should be so hard on myself...but it was very depressing :(...so guess what I did...I ate an ice cream cone from Baskin Robins!!!!!!!!!!!!!! What was I thinking? So today is a new day. I have already prepared snacks for the day; almonds, FRUIT and carrots. I think I will also make a sandwich to for lunch. I need to get back on track. I think we are in the same boat right now...exercising much bueno and eating not so bueno. Please correct me if I am wrong. I have to admit, I am not eating the fried and fast foods. Just more than what I should on the "normal" stuff plus the ice cream. Anyways, I am not getting down on myself...it's just those Mother F'in hormones that have taken over...it's not really me writing this. I have been taken hostage by; PRE-MENSTRUAL-SYMPTOMS or SYNDROME (which one is it?)!!! Normal Melanie should come back soon...I hope! Ok, I better go, before the hormones write more mindless things about eating bad and circus mirrors from Ross dress for less.
Goals
**Run 5 miles
**Don't go crazy...
My 5's
>>?? (I know I am grateful for something...at this moment I have nothing!!)
>>Oh, wait I have one...not being homeless...

Just eat it...
April 13th
Dear self...please keep the food out of your mouth.
I did fairly well yesterday until I had dinner. The family and I ate at Teofilios in LL. I had chicken enchiladas...steamed corn tortillas. But there was cheese on it and I ate every single last bite!! Dang Gina!! I should have kept it ala carte and had no cheese. But it was sooo good!! I guess I shouldn't complain...I didn't eat sopapillas or chips and salsa. We ate out last night because my lovely step daughter had a softball game and we got done late. I didn't buy fruit...that will be done today. Food, food, food...I feel like the song from Weird Al is playing in the background when I eat, "Just eat it...just eat it."
Ladies, I must get my day started! Have a fabulous day!!
Goals
**Eat within points!!
**Legs and abs
**Finalize everything for business meeting
**Grocery shop
My 5's
>>Reruns of the office
>>No wind yesterday
>>Warm weather
>>Albertson's fruit bowls
>>Ice skating Sunday!!
Let's go team!!

Back in my Rhelm
April 11th
Hello ladies...I am back! I had a very long week in Dallas. It was an intense week of training. At least I got to spend some time with a girlfriend Friday night. As you know I had some goals for last week. Well guess what, I didn't follow through with most of them.
The only thing I followed through with was exercise. I worked out four days last week. I hit it hard at the local gym down the street. It was nice to be in a gym. I hadn't worked out in a gym in a couple of years. I have been mostly running outside and doing group exercises. I didn't track last week. I also didn't eat like a big fat man either! I choose the most healthy options during lunch and dinner. One night I ate Subway! That was the night I spent two hours at the Rack!! All in all I made some good choices, minus the cheese on cheese crackers they offered us for snacks. Oh, and the stupid diet cokes! Guess what, I got on that damn gym scale!! Damn you scale!!! I only did it to make sure I was not gaining weight from all the restaurant food! And yes, there was no change in might weight. That might have changed after this weekends pig out!! I only got on the scale twice last week, you should be proud of me. (I am not going to step on my scale, because it broke while I was gone!!)
I did make some good choices, I bought two gallons of water at the grocery store, I stayed away from the deep fried items and yes again I am going reiterate the fact that I worked out last week!! Woo hoo!!
So on to this week...I am home. I am getting back on track with running. I will be running outside this week! Yay, me! I am working out five days and getting back on my running schedule.
I still need to watch what I eat!! I really don't crave restaurants anymore, my problem lately has been snacking all day long Sunday's and Monday's...please HELP!!!!
I also am working on my relationship with the father of my children. It was a rough week, I really don't want to get into the particulars...but hopefully we will be good.
Anyways, I am so proud of each of you...you all are amazing. I wish I had something funny to say. Hmm...I'll think about it and blog tomorrow. I think since I am home this week, I will blog more that once. I will have the energy and time.
Well I better get to it...I have spin in 20 minutes. Ladies, be as Fabulous as you know how to!!

Dallas
April 4th
Good morning!! I will be in Dallas this whole week. I left last night, in 50 mph winds. My thoughts raced my mind of how bad the turbulence was, to my surprise I was worrying about nothing. Great job flying, boys! I stepped off the plane and the humidity hit me like a ton of bricks! I forgot about the Dallas humidity. Along with that comes the blonde's and their "tans" (I don't think RED constitutes as a tan...but to each it's own). A wise woman once said about the woman of Dallas, "Leather and bleach...standard Texas". With that said, I am not looking towards the following; running on a stupid treadmill, eating out every day and being a way from home. Great, I hope we don't eat any pseudo "Mexican" restaurants this week.
So my goals listed today are for the entire week. Wish me luck ladies! Hey Carmen, by chance your in Dallas, not Houston? Just kidding. Ladies, I hope you have a killer week! With that said, I think I am going to cut my blog entries to twice a week. I don't know, maybe not. Let's see how this week goes.
Goals
**Get exercise in every day
**Track and eat within pts
**Stay away from gym scale
My 5's
>>TX elevation
>>Target, experienced my first Target Grocery store...I think I found my homeland!!!
>>My kids!
>>See a dear friend of mine this week
>>Remembering my way around DFW area

New Quarter!!
April 3rd
Today is a new day. In fact, today starts a new quarter. I have been reflecting on what I have accomplished the first three months of the year. I just read my very first blog. I had goals for the year and I only completed one goal...how depressing! I don't think I am going to add anymore goals on to my very full plate. I really am going to focus on my goals from the first of the year.
One of my goals was organization. I even said my shredder and I are going to be the best of friends...hmm I haven't even pulled the shredder out this year. That is truly pathetic! My car is a mess...and well I am not going to talk about the closet. The closet looked good for about a month or so.
I set goals of weight lose, Even though my weight has fluctuated up and down during the three months, my tummy and legs are getting smaller. I am also 7lbs less then what I was in December. I had a blog that I explained to you that I am no longer going to cheat. Well guess what, that never happened. I cheated Thursday night, because I knew I had one month to my half marathon. So my logic was, "I am going to be strict for April, because I am training...so I can eat bad the night before". I didn't eat "bad" food, I just a lot of what I cooked. I don't make any sense? This relationship with food I have is no bueno!
I am also going to work on my relationship with my husband. I am probably not the best of wives. I think when we have kids, we tend to put on husbands on the back burner. I know I am the first one to do it. I want to change this especially when my daughter gets older and watches us, she'll know how she's supposed to treat her husband. Also I have always been about doing everything myself. I kind of just treat him like a kid. I don't truly treat him like my husband. He's a great father and a good husband.
Organization, weight lose, being a better wife...that's what I am working on in my life. Should I add something for work? I don't think so, I am doing great with my job. I will be following through with all my goals.
I am may not be 20 lbs lighter, my closet is a mess and I am still not nice. But I am working on it. This has been a good year so far! Even though it's taking some time, I will see my goals be accomplished! Thanks again Theresa for this awesome club. And thank you fellow FT'ers for being supportive and making me realize we all are in the same boat. And we are all FABULOUS!!
