Be careful with what you cheat with!!  Just thought I’d pass on the latest info for you fast food lovers.

Check out these CRAZY-HIGH-CALORIE new fast foods

Burger King - Steakhouse Burger
950 calories, 59g fat, and 55g carbs!

You may as well have an actual steak if you’re going to consume this many calories! Why is this burger so insanely fatty? Well there’s the 368-calorie, 29-gram-of-fat patty, mayo, two slices of cheese, and a HUGE pile of fried onions… all on a massive doughy bun. NOT WORTH IT.

Carl’s Jr. - The Kentucky Bourbon Six-Dollar Burger
970 calories, 49g fat, and 81g carbs!

You know that annoying ad campaign with the surgeon who thinks about bourbon all day long? Yeah, it’s funny, but the idea of a medical professional (actor or not) chowing down this monster burger makes us cringe a little. A single sandwich with nearly 1,000 calories is soooo wrong. And not in that "so wrong it’s right" kinda way. It’s just wrong.

Jack in the Box - Mini Sirloin Burgers
748 calories, 29g fat, and 77g carbs!

For those of you wandering around singing, "Yippee-ai-ay, Mini Sirloin Burgers!" to yourself, you’re not alone. But DON’T be seduced into chewing on these teeny burger-ettes. Sure, you get three of them, but they’re REALLY little, so you’re probably going to want fries and a soda with ‘em. You’re better off riding into the sunset with a Chicken Fajita Pita (328 calories and 10g fat).

Wendy’s - Coffee Toffee Twisted Frosty
540 calories, 20g fat, and 83g carbs!

If the thought of adding coffee syrup to a Wendy’s Frosty is enough to send you into a full-on swoon, brace yourself. And if your dreams are speckled with chocolate-covered toffee bits, prepare to pinch yourself. As good as this all sounds, it comes with a hefty price tag. This shake has more calories than the Triple Stack burger, which has three beef patties and three pieces of cheese. Fantasy OVER.

Taco Bell - Volcano Box
1,380 calories, 76g fat, and 133g carbs!

Why does this box need to exist? Does ANYONE need to eat a meal that consists of a double-beef burrito, two tacos, and a pack of Cinnamon Twists?! Do yourself a favor and stick to the Fresco Menu at The Bell, and don’t consume most of your calories for the day in a single meal!

I have had a really devastating week, I don’t wish to share any details….however I learned a few truths about myself and it was really hard to accept.  I have been in a relationship/marriage for the past 31 years and I ended it…I have had very little social life all these years as I was devoted to my relationship….when I got a taste of freedom I didn’t know how to handle it….kind of like a kid…I did some things that probably weren’t the wisest to do, I made some not so smart choices and it cost me a beautiful friend as well as my self respect….I paid to high a price!  I couldn’t handle anything so I went to see one of the pastors at church, I’m so glad I did…he helped me put things into perspective and helped me see what I was doing to myself…it was very hard for me to admit and a very humbling experience…I have tried to explain to my friend and I did apologize…I don’t know if I’ve been forgiven or not, I do know that I am still trying to forgive myself….life is so hard and painful at times, but I have picked myself up and brushed myself off because I have to keep trying to get it right….everything that life is is a gift…even the hard lessons….and I know from experience that without pain there can be no growth….my biggest problem was that I was trying not to feel the pain, I guess that’s part of being human too.  So now I will work hard at improving myself, not just my body…because what good is a rockin bod if everything else is not healthy?!  God willing I will be healthy enough and ready to compete in 2010!!

Peter denied Christ
The Disciples fell asleep while praying

The Samaritan woman was divorced, more than once
Zaccheus was too small

Now! No more excuses!
God can use you to your full potential.
Besides you aren’t the message, you are just the
messenger.
And one more thing…Share this with a friend or
two…
In the Circle of God’s love, God’s waiting to use your
full potential.

?

1. God wants spiritual fruit, not religious nuts.

2. Dear God, I have a problem, it’s Me.

3. Growing old is inevitable .. growing UP is
optional.

4. There is no key to happiness. The door is alwa ys
open.

5. Silence is often misinterpreted but never
misquoted.

6. Do the math .. count your blessings.

7. Faith is the ability to not panic.

8. Laugh every day, it’s like inner jogging.

9. If you worry, you didn’t pray . If you pray,
don’t worry.

10. As a child of God, prayer is kind of like calling
home everyday.

11. Blessed are the flexible for they shall not be
bent out of shape.

12. The most important things in your house are the
people.

13 When we get tangled up in our problems, be still. God wants us to be still so He can untangle the knot.

14. A grudge is a heavy thing to carry.

15 He who dies with the most toys is still dead.

Have a great day!!! The SON is shining and he
can certainly use you!

Just an update….I’ve been off all supplements now since the 8th and boy can I tell!! LOL  Workouts are a little tougher and my energy level is not quite up there.  The only part about it that bothers me is being off the glucosamine and chondroitin because I can feel the tightness starting in my wrist again.  Thank goodness it’s only for a short time! Ha Ha  I will have surgery the 21st of July(don’t ask! LOL), so can resume all supps after.  I will be restricted with no lifting for one month, then no more than 5lbs for a few weeks…will gradually increase of course.

I have been really busy with work etc. lately but have been using my late nights to re-evaulate my situation and my goals, both on a personal and proffessional level.  I have decided that I WILL COMPETE in 2010!!  I will not listen to any negative comments regarding people’s opinion about whether or not I can be ready…MY OPINION IS THE ONE THAT COUNTS!  I fully intend to take 2009 out with a bang and bring in 2010 with not only attitude but a kick ass body!!  JUST WATCH ME!! LOL

Have a wonderful weekend everyone!  God Bless!!
