No More Monkeying Around!
I forgot to include this one in my Playacar pictures.
Hehehee. The monkey is my favorite animal. 
When I saw this one wandering around the resort, hitting up stupid tourists and getting them to pay exoribitant amounts to take a picture with it, I JUMPED at the chance. 
Sucker. 
I’m doing terrific on my post-vacation plans! I can almost feel myself entering the easy part of all this. I mean, it’s never REALLY easy (for me!) to workout and eat squeaky clean, but there is a period after the initial 2 week period where it becomes much easier to turn down the good eats, and keep up with the workouts. I am probably about 5 days away from entering that zone. I can’t wait to be there!
I ordered some shoes from Nike online. They have a cool feature where you can design your own pair, and they take about 6 weeks to make it into your hands. Mine finally came! How adorable are these??! 
Yes, I am SUCH a girl. I love all things pink, pretty, polkadotted, and er.. other p-words! It’s going to be a good week!

You do realize now that all the fellas in your gym will know your name, right?

OMG! Those are sooo cute. I have a pair of black and pink Filas and I love them.

The monkey pic is cute and the shoes are very, very girly - perfect for you!
Are they running shoes, fashion shoes, or just shoes to workout in?

I’m so jealous of that monkey picture!!! You are such a lucky devil!!! What size shoe do you wear? I’m sure the foot fetish contingent of your considerable fan club wants to know. I’m guessing you wear a size 2. Maybe 1.5.

I LOVE those shoes! I am also a sucker for pink… I will have to check out that feature… Cute monkey, too! (Also a sucker for monkeys!) Glad to hear that training and eating are going well for you!

Imma Google some p adjectives!
Nice kicks, Janet.
And I totally empathize with your "every surface becomes a hanger or storage area" lament. Amazing what becomes a clothes hanger.

Wow! Ask Google and ye shall receive:
How about precious, prissy, palatable, popular, polished, peaceful, and piercing?

Love the monkey pic! cool shoes as well.
Keep up the great work with the eating and workouts. It’s difficult for me to eat clean as well.

OMG!! CUTE SHOES!! I hate Nike, but I sooooooooo have to get myself a pair lol
You look THRILLED to have the monkey on your shoulder
That’s awesome!
And WTG on your clean eating kick. Keep it up, girl! You’ve got this!

OOOHHHH! Little ego stroke by putting your name on them?
BTW aren’t you supposed to get the monkey off your back?

I’m a sucker for shoes, too! I’m with GJ w/ not liking Nike (shoes anyway), but I did pay way (waaaaay) too much for a pair of Shox b/c I loved the colors. What a sweet monkey that is
July 8, 2008 at 2:26 pm
Too cool you got to take a picture with a MONKEY!! And I can just see you showing off those shoes!!! That’s great!! I know what you mean, after a certain time you can feel some things are easier - that’s GREAT! Since you’re going no cheat for July - wow, you’re my hero… lol
July 8, 2008 at 10:19 pm
Oh wow. I am SO flattered. I mean really, it’s so nice of you to….wait…are you talking about that shrimp on your shoulder? Well crap.
July 9, 2008 at 12:11 am
Since nobody else would ask..I guess I need to do it….Did you spank the monkey? ROFL! Cute pics…oh…and my wife loves the shoes
July 9, 2008 at 6:35 pm
Both the monkey and the shoes are cute. Oh yes, and you’re looking quite good too!
July 9, 2008 at 8:49 pm
JJAnet, You are SO way cuter than the monkey though. I LOVE the new shoes, you may have to put tape over them to keep "weirdo guy" at the gym from learning your name though. Congrats on the eating getting easier, maybe you will get like me and the thought of junk food makes you sick (sorry I don’t want you to be sick, just not eat junk food). Keep it up girl, you look FABulous.

Hey Janet I didn’t realize you had a twin sister (Just joking). I’m glad to hear that everything is going well for you and it looks like you have been having a lot of fun.
P.S. I love the shoes

I LOVE LOVE LOVE the shoes. Pink is my favorite color. I like what you said about things getting easier. It reminds me that there is a point to where things simply become natural.
July 10, 2008 at 8:56 pm
Love the shoes JJ I might get me a pair too. You think they make pink shoes in a 16? Also those monkeys are the best I hired one in Thialand when I was there to get me beer. Keep up the workouts and eating. You can do it you were doing so good before your travels you can get back in there. Go out buy a few outfits to match those shoes and make a few of those shakes (only you would drink) and get with it. Your awesome JJ
