Day 191...still at 182


Back at the gym again last night with my baby boy. He hangs out with me on the cardio equipment, but really enjoys the weights a lot more. He is a wee bit stronger than I am, and he loves to shove that in my face! His favorite piece of equipment is the pull up machine. You know, the one where you put in your body weight (or slightly less) and do pull ups in an assisted manner...he also loves any machine that works his abs. This kid has NO body fat...never has...so he's looked like an A&F model since he was 3 years old. I think he rather enjoys this fine distinction...


In food news, I'm doing ooohhhkkkkkaaaayyyy....I find that working out at night (just like you, TigerLily) is hard on me, since when we come home from the gym, I'm ready for a 2nd dinner, and I don't always make good choices. Now, we do tend to stay up VERY late, so it's not like I'm going to bed on a full tummy, but...I don't think that 2 blueberry muffins, despite the fact that they're low fat/low sugar, are such a good idea at midnight. I think more REAL food is in order if I must eat when we get home from the gym and I'm starving. Great idea from FATINAH to eat a banana. I should eat it in the car on the way home...


In duck news, I called my babies' adoptive mom last night, and she said they are doing beautifully. Swimming in the pond, eating with the rest of the crew, getting along with everyone. I'm soooooooooooooooooooo happy!!!!!!!!! I miss them a lot, though. Already counting down the days to my first visit!


Well, I'm arf to "work" at school...as a parent, I have 70 hours/school year I need to volunteer, and I try to get it all done during the summer because I'm too busy to do it during the school year. As if, at 3:30 p.m., after working all day, I'm going to say: Oh, I think I'll stay another couple of hours! Yeah, right! Get me HOME!!!! So, off to "work," then the gym. I also get to pick up my pictures...I took a billion duck pictures last week...


Enjoy,

FatMom

glad to see the ducks are enjoying their new home! how nice to be able to think about them swimming in the pond, being part of a duck community.

I know that machine that is your son's fav - I hate it! I actually asked my trainer to use other machines - it put me just high enough for my fear of heights to kick in!
