  1. What can I throw in my breadcrumbs to season them. I am way to cheap to go buy a new can of them since I still have a full one here.
  2. I am not really sure if I am ready to draw attention to my ass yet with a flashing light. Changing times at work really is not that bad. I don't have to come in later on my stock month, I chose to so I could ride. But the first week back at 5 am did suck after coming in at 8a. 5am sucks a whole lot more in the summertime when it doesn't get dark until after 10p. I need 8 hours of sleep to function properly and I don't want to waste my day napping. So I have been popping some Lipo6x for the energy. Juli at least you are going to the gym on your non bike days. I am definitely going to get a gym membership when winter comes around. I am going camping in a few weeks and I must say I am a bit freaked out. I know I will get my exercise in but my eating is going to be difficult to keep in check. I have purposely begun to buy snacks for the kids and DH that I don't like or can't eat (Twinkies and BBQ chips lol). My eating has always been "the problem". That was why I started working out, so I did not have to be one of those 800 calorie people. I am just freaked out about not having a scale for 2 weeks, and no support from you guys for two weeks. I might have to find a library around there with a computer lol. I ma excited for the biking though. There is a bike trail at one of the state parks where I am going that is supposed to be awesome. I think it is like 30 miles or so and it should be fun. DH will be able to come with me since my parents are also going and will be able to watch the kids. Well I have my bike in the car to ride after work. If all goes well weather wise I should have my workout done before I get home from work.
  3. Armkam you silly thing it is just the powder! I guess I should have been more specific!
  4. Aunt Flo is here Aunt Flo is here!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am so excited to know that the reason I pigged out today is because she's a visiting. I wouldn't want to actually have to like blame myself for it?
  5. LOL. I just got in an 11 mile ride. And with all the bugs at the park that I rode through i think I got all my protein in for the day!
  6. Oh Hoosier I am so jealous of your new bike! Juli you are such a rock star. You are like my bad ass biker bitch hero. Deanna, Hawaii sounds awesome. Too bad I am waaay to poor for that. Maybe Oprah will have me on her show and sponsor my trip there lol. As for work, I work in a hospital. Specifically dealing with the OR supplies. Three of us ladies rotate jobs monthly. Two of the months involve ordering and inventory counts. The third involves actually stocking the supplies to the OR. For the ordering months I have to be at 5am. The stocking month I can come in as late as 8am which is why I could ride in last month and will be able to ride in again in September. I am going to try and ride right after work though at 1:30 it is the hottest part of the day. However, after getting in a weeks worth of protein in eating bugs during my dusk ride I just finished I think I would rather deal with heat than with bugs. And for the record I just put in 11 miles =)
  7. I was talking to my Mom about this recipe and she said her mother used to make it with lime jello and pineapple chunks.
  8. Peaches, I love ribs. I still eat them. Only now a half rack will last me three meals.
  9. Well PB and sliming are two terms my surgeon never used. Throwing up and extreme salivating are the terms I was given. It is possible that they know what it is but just don't know the terms we use here.
  10. I think a good challenge for August is no daily weigh ins!!!!!!!!! Weekly minimum. Aunt Flo is a bitch and she will be on to visiting me soon enough. Can you make ice cream out of a Protein shake?
  11. Oh I had like 6 caramel Hershey kisses today. Damn those things were good. Plus it was loaded potato soup day at work. Seriously delicious and probably seriously calorie loaded. It is a protein bar dinner tonight!
  12. Zannie you can definitely tell the difference in the face. In the first pic I can barely see your eyes and in the second one they are sparkling! I can see a body difference too. You are beautiful and doing so awesome!
  13. I have some sort of department store bought cheap kind of bike. Mongoose? I definitely need a "real" bike but I am going to wait on that. Money is a little tight around here so I want to make sure I still want to ride next summer before dropping the cash.
  14. Jello flavored. Not any sort of jello consistancy what so ever.
  15. Aww thanks =). That pic was pretty much as natural as they come, no makeup, hair tied up, no bra, pajamas. I am going to update my pics in August when it is my 6 month bandiversary. Did you get on the treadmill?
  16. Here is my new set up lol. DH has the computer chair and the kitchen chair is just too hard on my getting bonier butt. Yep, feelin a little lazy tonight.
  17. I heart Michigan and all of it's festivals of food. lol
  18. Hey I figure I am starting to look so good now so more power to me for wanting to accessorize properly. I need to get some different sunglasses, mine were hurting to backs of my ears.
  19. Dang Juli your bike riding fricken rules. I can't wait to get up to what you are doing. No I don't have a bend in my arms so I will have to try moving the seat. I definitely have to agree with you on the helmet thing. Every single serious looking biker I rode by nodded to me or said hello. That has not happened before. It must be the helmet. DH was making fun of me yesterday about helmets because there was this helmet on clearance at Dick's and I would not buy it because it was blue and my bike is red. I have red and black gloves and I wanted my outfit to coordinate. He just rolled his eyes and told me I was a dork lol.
  20. Ohhh Faith I forgot about the Tastefest. At least it is over today lol.
  21. Yesterday I went to my mother in laws wedding and my SIL came up to me and said "wow I have been sitting here trying to figure out who my brother brought with him because I did not recognize you" I have to admit it felt pretty good.
  22. I take GNC Chewable Solotron. It is an adult chewable. They also have a chewable calcium. Of course I am so dang horrible at remembering them.
  23. I look at other peoples plates in disgust too. lol I have never felt like a freak for not being able to overeat. I was worried too about the eating thing and not being able to eat my favorite foods again. You know what? I still can eat them. I just can't overeat them. As for the snickers bar, nine times out of ten now I don't even want it.
  24. I was having some issue too for a few months. Now things seem to be regulating themselves.
  25. Ohh I can't wait to read it. I really do enjoy your blog and I am rooting for ya! I agree with Faith on the whole A thing too. My exercising is going very well. I bit it pretty bad yesterday while riding to work but I managed to get my bike fixed and out for a 20 mile ride this morning.
