So I caught something and it's kicking my ass. My counts are all over the
place and I'm going for a 10 week steriod round. Luckly these shouldn't
put on anymore weight or make my 27 pound loss disappear as fast as it's
come off. I'm down 2 pants size and 1 top size. My face isn't as fat and
I'm losing the prednizone cheeks and chin. I can finally see cheek bones.
I can't wait to see my collarbone more defined. I have something about
collarbones. My white blood cell count was down so I'm fighting an
infection and they've also put me on some serious antibotics.
Thursday I was super sick and lost my voice all day. I slept the
day away in between calls from work. My body is killing me.
I can feel my abs which meant I totally strained something getting
sick so many times. I didn't work out on Wednesday and I'm going
to rest for the rest of the weekend and just relax. I have laundry thats
piling up and if only 1 King size quilt costs 14 dollars to launder I don't
think I'll be sending any of it out.

slipping
I've been taking the stairs when I can. I park far away, not just because of
my hit and run fear but also because I'm walking.
I'm dreaming of spring golf. I can't wait for the green grass and outside.
I did 20 minutes of weights today. I was drag ass and no amount of
music could pull me out of the slump.
I have a sore throat and swollen lymph nodes, probably a virus?
We'll see. I'm on an immuno so hopefully I've been careful enough
and I haven't caught anything. We'll see...

Good day
I did 30 minutes of hard cardio today. I did 20 minutes with weights.
I had a very good workout mix and timed every song just right if
I don't say so myself. I woke up at 4 and was out the door by 5.
I didn't finish working until 6 and was stuck in almost 2 hour
traffic on the way home and I was wiped but ended up playing
Rock Band for awhile and had a great time doing it.
All in all I felt good today, my blood cells are reacting well to the
medicine they put me on. My iron is finally up.

slacking
I've been remiss in my workout. Anemia kind of shut me down, mind, body & soul.
I had my monthly weigh in and I'm down 20 pounds. I'm sure the fact that I'm not on
any steroids helps the weight loss. Cancer can layer you in shame. Shame. Shame.
I'm trying not to be afraid anymore and just push myself. This week I think I pushed
too hard. I missed the whole week to sleep in and hit the snooze.
I haven't been hungry at all. I can't stomach the look of food. I'm been forcefeeding
myself which sucks because food is wonderful, food is the best thing in the world.
Works been kicking my ass too. 4 am and I'm looking at the clock right now and it's
10:00 pm and all I've done is the dishes, cleaned up the kitchen, played rock band and
totally kicked ass on Metallica I had alot of fun.
Tomorrow I'm going to get in atleast 20 minutes of cardio and 20 eliptical. I have a
really good mix for the iPod so I'm getting everything ready so I can run out the door
I hope for no more snow, but we all know that's not going to happen.
Atleast I'll always have a job ;)

This week was pretty crazy. I only did cardio Monday & Wednesday and since I wasn't diving 100 miles to go to the gym on my day off I've been lazing around since Friday morning.
Monday was crazy hard to get the motivation to work out. I was extra tired and sleepwalked my way through 30 minutes of a really soft work out. I ended up listening to the news, holding my hands under the machine and walked with my eyes closed. It was pretty pathetic, but I do
give myself the blus ribbon for getting up and out by 5 am. I got gas and then drove in some pretty hectic traffic. Excuses, excuses.
Monday I will be well rested, the house will be clean and hopefully I won't bake anything.
I've competely gone without buying any snacks in two weeks.
I'm trying to cut out red meat, but of course once you're back on the wagon for so many years,
it's hard to cut it out the menu.
I'm going to try to plan meals ahead, instead of on the ride home. Once I get home
the bed looks so lovely I don't want to eat. I should think this is a good thing, but we'll
see. I kinda pigged out this weekend. I had two fried eggs and butter and nutty toast,
2 bowls of cereal and a bowl of sauce and hamburger. At least I didn't have any pasta this weekend.
Hopefully next week will be a little more fruitful.
