Week one of the new year. And...we're back.
Have you ever seen the movie The Cove? If not...it's a place where dolphins are taken to be slaughtered. They can't escape, they are incredibly stressed the entire time they're there, and sure enough..they watch most of their friends and family die before they are eventually slaughtered. Well, that is very much what it's like at my place of employment. Only...instead of spears and machetes, it's drama. That's right...I work at Drama Cove.
Moving on...
So far, I've stuck to my guns! Some of the best girls ever and I went wogging twice this week, and I completed a yoga workout where I realized just how incredibly out of shape I really am. (EEK!) It was great! We're currently training for a 5k that's at the end of Feb. I may not be able to run the entire thing, but I know I'll at least complete it. If the people on Biggest Loser can do it, I can do it...right?
Along with the training, 3 of the best girls ever and I decided to do a cleanse. I found one online...but we're basically making up our own to suit our liking. Hubs is doing it too, which makes it a little easier. We're doing only fruits and veggies for one week. I actually didn't think it'd be as hard as it is. This is day 2...I'm pretty much dying for a crisp, bubbly diet pepsi. Today I got the go-ahead for a glass. I'm pretty sure it's just because Georgia girl wanted a glass of wine..but, whatever. I'll take it!
I've pretty much come to the conclusion that even though I'm not supposed to eat carbs or sugar (because my body is wacky), I just can't live without it. The past 2 days I've been thinking about it nonstop. I was literally drooling over the croissants at the bakery last night! But, I was strong and only bought the stuff I needed for veggie soup...which, by the way, turned out FANTASTIC (if I do say so myself)!
Georgia girl sent me a link for the warrior dash. She had a crazy idea that I would actually be interested in participating in it in just a few weeks. Clearly, she does NOT know me well enough. That is definitely NOT enough time to think of numerous excuses as to why I can't do it. So...we sort of decided to do the one in GA...because after all she is a little Georgia girl. It's not until May..which means we have time to train (think of lots of excuses why this is a VERY bad idea). We'll most likely get a hotel and make a weekend of it. A combination of mud, live music, fireworks , a FREE warrior helmet and giant slip n' slide...can it get any better? oh yes, add beer....now it's perfect. So, who knows...maybe we'll have some excitement in May!
