Well, after I got past the fact that I can’t lift as much because of the baby, I tried modifying my exercises.  I actually find that I get totally discouraged as though my progress is stunted.  Too much cardio and I feel the vericose veins encroaching like vermin.  Too much weight training or training too heavily and I can’t peel my butt out of bed to get the kids to school in the morning without moaning the entire time about how I’d kill their worst enemy if only I could have Starbucks!

I’m only 3 months pregnant and already I look like I’m 6.  Cellulite is my new best friend and my supplements are now accompanied by my newly found gag reflex.

But she’s going to be so friggin’ cute!!!

We went and saw them last night!  They are unbelievable! Leeland is a great young group whos lead singer is definitely touched by God.  If any of you gets the opportunity to see either of them in person–do it!!

What in the world do I have to do to get the public school system to stop feeding my kids genetically modified-saturated fat fortified crap?!  Pizza, fries, chocolate milk, not-so-’fresh’-fruit that tastes like all the chemicals they dumped on them  AAAAaaahhhGGG!!!!

Then, when I get them home, they’re so wired or crabby from coming down off the sugar and M.S.G. they don’t want any chicken, roast, or home-grown organic veggies.  Anywho, I found a great local organic grocer that sends seasonal produce and grains to my house every Tuesday and all I have to do is go online and click what I want–THAT kicks ass!  The local YMCA even lets me bring my 3 boys and my daughter into the weight room with me so I have mommy time at Gold’s, but can still bring my kiddos into my world and maybe teach them something good.

I tried adding Bulgarian lunges to my routine yesterday.  I added my own twist, though; when I squatted down, I would pick up the db’s for a rep then put them down on the next rep.  My butt is killing me–I love this feeling!  Also, I ss my step ups and lunges using db instead of a bb.  With the weight I use on my lunges, I felt this in my lats and delts, too.  I’m constantly eating something.  I got tuna fish on my copy of The Historian (the novel I’m reading), and protein shake on the 12th Exodus

 Can somebody tell me why girls are so stand-offish at the gym?  I can meet guys all day long who are nice and knowledgable, but the second I try to strike up a conversation or compliment a lady with the same exercise technique or composure as myself, I get stabbed with the icycle gaze…

<I ate too much salt yesterday so now my feet look like balloons…jeez what a deal.>

Used to be that when I’d get stressed out, I’d head straight for the dirty martinis or a good merlot-YHVH has straightened me out in that area, but now I just want to drink breves and sleep.

 My butt shows the effects of the latest 5 months of stress and today I vowed to change all that.  I’ve been trying to convince myself to make this dedication move for about 4 of these 5 months, but now I figure I’ve got all of you to hold me accountable!   (That and the fact that I’m going to Sweden in a month)…Started my supplement routine and even packed a ‘roadtrip bag’ for those times when I know that I won’t be around a good facility and holds all I need for a decent routine in my room.

Ever notice how the people who are consistently failing in life always blame their circumstances?  Do you hate it as much as I do?  I looked in the mirror a couple of weeks ago and realized it’s all me, baby.  So now I’ve got an attorney in line to help with the nasty custody battle, I’ve got my workouts scheduled into my day like it’s a job, and I sign on my first house in 2 1/2 weeks!  Yay, me!

There’s something that us christians say to encourage us and it comes from the Word-I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.  What I failed to realize is how that scripture is finished-Notwithstanding ye have well done that ye did communicate with my affliction.  Meaning- we will succeed in the will of YHVH realizing what He did for us to succeed.  Powerful.  I’ll end there to read BlueLetterBible.com   –   Talk to ya tomorrow and let you know how leg day treats me!   Bless yer day
