Let Me have some of your sodas and your beans

Okay so today I really tried to go at a faster pace and keep my heart rate up I ran/jogged one of the four segments of the show I watch Super size vs. super skinny and I feel so good.  I want to be able to actually run for a long time eventually, I am too self conscious to run anywhere but in place in my little work out room, but maybe one day when I am in better shape I will be able too and then if there is ever a zombie apocalypse I wont have to trip people.



Did you know that there is this 5k called zombie run, I have had zombies on the brain the last couple of days must be October, man I love this month.  Posted pic of said zombie run below.




You can read all about this 5k with obstacle course @ http://runforyourlives.com/?gclid=CKKapcuR77ICFayPPAodfA0A7g

I don't think they run specifically for any cause other then for fun and health but it seems way fun and if I was a runner I would totally be all over this.

Stay Tuned 3 days till progress picture and weigh in.

Today's music:
The Kinks: A well respected man
Richard Cheese: Don't Cha
Sublime: Jail House

Love my picks for today makes me feel like my ruff night at work is just a far away memory
Every one could use some good ol Dick Cheese, eww you pervs I'm talking about the lounge singer
Richard Cheese :p.  His songs are just plain happy incarnate, if you are a zombie fan like myself you might recognize Richard from such movies as Dawn of the Dead where he does a lounge rendition of disturbed's down with the sickness, and hey that movie was playing yesterday.



50 crossing crunches
50 sit ups
25 bicycle crunches
25 reverse crunches

Rising Up to the Challenge of Our Rivals

Hello World, I am all caught up on my work outs now, yay!!!  I'm not sure I like this posting every day business I feel like not having as much time to think about what I want to say is making my blog less fun to read and write, so from now on only one or two work out posts a week with my weekly music picks and you can follow a long during the week if you'd like, or way in and tell me about music you think I would like to listen to in my work outs, and maybe I will even pick it for a post woo hoo!!!  With this posting my routines to keep me honest and motivated I feel like my blog is being taken over and turning into a weight loss blog and I really feel like I want it to be more then that so I will do my once or twice a week with my songs and routines probably starting Monday or Tuesday.

Today's routine:
watched Super size vs super skinny while on my stepper
my three songs I missed yesterday on my stepper
my three songs for today  on my stepper
10 jumping jacks
10 crunches
10 revers lunges on each leg just to change things up

TODAY'S SONG PICKS:

Regina Spektor: Apres Moi (not a fast paced song but a long song)

Survivor: Eye Of the Tiger (A work out classic that should be in everyone's mp3 player/every time I hear it I think of that commercial for Starbucks where they sing about Glen, here I will post it for you that's just good stuff people/ I feel like I am channeling my dad with my music picks for today with the classic rock/ blues/ and spoiler alert zombies)  I should give my parents a call soon.

As Promised



Last But Not Least

Jonathon Coultons: Re Your Brains (Any one who has played the left 4 dead games is bound to know this song/ I like to think that if I for some reason got turned into a zombie during a zombie apocalypse  that work would be the first place I went (just kidding,...kind of)

six mile walk woo hoo

Six mile walk today

Then my usual routine

Didn't have time for the songs today but I am going to double up on them tomorrow.

I am gonna post them anyways



Getting pumped before work



Beans!!!

Time to move. ~ >.< ~ (that's me doing the wave I've got skills)

If you are wanting to follow along with me, I will be listing my songs for the day.  Today's strange theme seems to be putting on a show.  These songs are random and no please don't show me anything its just coincidence because one song would make me think of another, any who here we go!

Today's songs

1:  Lady Gaga Show me your teeth

2:  Saosin Show me your booty hole

Last but not least drum roll please...

3: Jon Lajoie Show me your genitals

Nothing too intense felt like listening to fun and funny music.

I did my show super size vs super skinny, followed by these songs, changed it up today and I added 

20 reverse crunches

20 regular crunches

20 bicycle crunches 

I felt I needed to tone my belly was feeling gooey there today because I ate pizza last night with extra cheese yum!  Was totally worth it though hung out with old friends and new friends, swam, and enjoyed this last bit of nice weather before it gets too cold to get in the water.  

Progress pic in a week, I'm hopeful but not expecting a lot (no pressure self you got this).

If you don't like today's songs stay tuned because my musical taste are usually better, and these are just for inspiration if you want to listen to something new, or can't think of anything really you want to hear.  

just keep swimming.

So I have been getting back into a work out routine this week.  I have been using my rock and roll stepper and watching an episode of this show on my lap top while I work.



its a pretty interesting show about people struggling with under eating and over eating they swap diets for two days to see just how drastic and wrong their diets are and are educated on healthier life styles and what they are doing to their bodies I have become addicted, this one was my favorite so far.  The show is called super sized vs. super skinny.  When my knees start to get sore from the awkwardness of the stepper I take a short break and march while I watch the show.  I believe the episodes are 45 minutes long, then I listen to about three upbeat songs after the show is over to my stepper.


Todays songs:
Blue song Mint Royale (I introduced this song to you guys earlier in a previous post one of my favorites)
Dead on the Dance Floor by ultra Violet Sound (This song is longer and will make you work)
Flash Man song, mega man II (This is really short so its almost over folks)
I Felt like doing one more, I ended on the clash should I stay or should I go


Any ways for a product review tony little's rock n roll stepper its very affordable around 20 bucks, the general consensus is its hard on the knees a little bit, but you defiantly feel it more then jogging/walking in place so I don't regret spending my money on it.

 

So I put back that 10 lbs I was down mostly but I am down 2 lbs now.  I look okay but I'm far from comfortable.



I'm off to do the laundry now because I am awesome.

The Bitter Sweet Life

I have been taking a blogging vacation as of late.  The stress from work has been making me crazy.  My manager has a tendency to hire some real losers.  The type of people who have no ambition, do crazy drugs, get their children taken away, and live with their parents till their in their late 30's, and they just keep having children, they don't care about bettering themselves, or taking care of their kids, they get all the free stuff they can from the government, call into work every week, are super lazy and complain and leave early on a daily bases.

I work really hard, I do the work of six people on my shift because there is only ever two of us.  Then they hire these people, these horrible people that my town seems to be full of probably from all the meth that is floating around this town and they just make my job harder because I have to clean up after them and do their job while they complain.

This past month I have been on a roller coaster of emotion I have been struggling with my weight I can't seem to find a good medium between not eating at all or just non stop shoveling of food.  I started smoking again, though my boyfriend confiscated my smokes and only lets me have one a day.  I have just been feeling so bitter when I think about my life, my divorce, I feel like I did everything I was suppose to.  I got married and I didn't just have kids right away I waited because I knew we weren't financially or emotionally ready.  I got a job and worked hard, I am trying to climb the latter you know.  My job though, I am surrounded by these people who have everything handed to them, they have the greatest gift in the world and they don't even care enough to appreciate it.

My town is full of the dregs of society, narcissists that care about nothing but being lazy.  These people aren't my peers though I am surrounded by them on a daily bases I was even married to one.  I have to get out of this town and this career and into something more real.  My money, damn you money, I feel like I am always waiting always saving taking the slow path in everything because I had to learn the hard way.  God I am so hard on myself.

Maybe, maybe its like the turtle and the hair.  I'm surrounded by bunnies and I think that is where I want to be.  When I finally cross that line though, when I finally win one on my road less traveled none of it will matter.  Until that day comes I have my best friend who ugly cries when I feel sad to cheer me up I love that lady.

and when that doesn't work I have my beer and my cigarettes and my sweet guy.  Yeah I suppose I got it pretty good.  What's my hurry.

Also I just got a raise and those two losers got fired,... out of a cannon into the sun.

No not really but they did get fired.  One of them was arrested and stopped showing up, he did this last time he worked with us and we have no idea how he keeps getting rehired, and the other one started a bar fight and her married boy friend with two pregnant girlfriends on the side that takes all her money and hits her kept showing up to work and threatening her all the time.  I wish I could feel sorry for her but lots of other people,  her family members, and I have tried to give her a way out and she doesn't want it.  She brags about her life.  Maybe work will get better now.

"I Don't Know Where I am, I Don't Know Where I've Been, But I Know Where I Want To GO,
This is the First Day of My Life"

I Don't Care

Donuts!



As I sit here contemplating what to post I realize how little I really think about my ex these days and it makes me happy.  When it comes to him




speaking of donuts I have been doing really well on my dieting.  I am down 11 lbs so far yay!

I finally got my rock n roll side stepper and I have been using it quite a bit, seems too easy but it really works your leg muscles.  I also went on a six mile walk yesterday which was fun.



Now I leave you with my favorite song I worked out to this week.
