Does this log make my ass look fat?

[kfisherx]

ewwwwww... A house full of stickies.... have fun with that Diane and give that little sticky a big b-day hug today.

Nice workout! I like the cake batter just as much as the frosting.

[nutbar]

Sugar hangovers suck. Being ass-backward people, we ate the cake and ice cream first, followed by cheese dogs & hamurgers & chips, and finished off with watermelon. I think I ended up having three of hubby's Coke's. *burp* First pop I've had in months. We got to meet a few new folks (I invited our entire homeschool group) and the poor people have to be thinking I'm a crack addict. I was so buzzing.

Oh, and have I mentioned our urinal webcam? Having 4 boys plus hubby, we decided installing a urinal would be wise (most especially because we don't have a flush toilet -- we have a sawdust toilet -- and less pee in it means less maintenance). We didn't want to waste water by hooking up the top water for flushing, choosing instead to take a cupful of water from the sink for rinsing. So there was this ugly top spud sitting on top the urinal (where the incoming water would enter) just looking.... ugly. I, being an eternal smartass, took an old webcam, cut off the cord, and glued it to the urinal top. It looks really cool! However, I forgot to explain to our guests that it's just a joke and the webacm is not actually working. I'm now going to have to send a group email to our homeschool group explaining this so no one thinks we're pervs.



Eats this week: I have no clue. I didn't keep track yesterday so we'll just call the entire week a "refeed".

Thanks! The article isn't earth-shattering by any means but a good, basic one.

I completed FLII and moving on to the new WarpSpeed FL. I will keep you posted on how it goes. (I wish they had a tamer name for it). I have found a few other logs of people doing it. My policy is going to be NO Whining! (sounds like what I say to my kids HA!) Anyway your looking great - cant wait to see your progress this month.

Oh, cool! I'll be watching to see how it goes! The other people doing it -- are they here at JP's or elsehwere?

Thanks! They have one of the bras I just bought. Buy Women's Moving Comfort Fiona Bra at Activa but mine's black. I wasn't so sure of it when I bought it but, after having used it a few times, I LOVE it! I'll probably order another one or two. Then again, my boobs are shrinking faster than anything else right now so maybe I should wait since I may changes sizes yet again. *sigh*

Ooh, cake batter. I had to beat my kids off during the batter stages yesterday!

[fengshway]

oh, the webcam urinal is fantastic. having a urinal in a houseful of boys makes total sense.

[tcoy777]

That was too funny. I got really scared when I first saw that picture.

[L'ilJ]

That Moving Comfort sports bra actually looks pretty cute. A major feat in itself. Personally I don't have an issue with needing a super supportive sportsbra, but when I was nursing it was a job one. I'm happy not to have boobz to worry about anymore.

[fengshway]

jill, so I take it you wouldn't be interested in a donation?? I hate having big boobs as a runner. totally blows. but I use the champion underwire scoop back. works pretty well.

Nope. I've always been pretty small chested and always thought it would be cool to have boobs. Then I got them when I had my son. I haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaated them. 32DDs. I was very happy when I weaned and got my Bs back.

Oh, and have I mentioned our urinal webcam?

ROTFL!!!!!!!!!

The way you say you hold your house girl...that's probably not the first and the last explaining you've got to do!
Glad you had a blast at a BD party though..a lot of moms tend to skip the "fun" part, with all the hassle...congrats!

Rotate the props. Put in some sort of a hand crank (that makes noise) to see who tries it.

Or a coin slot or jar.

Although, a funnel could be useful...

An old fashioned WC tank with a pull chain. Have it dispense 1 cup of water down that hole for rinsing.

In CA, waterless urinals are all the rage in new places. I don't know what's special about them, but there's no rinsing involved.

This is awesome.

I'm glad you had a good time at the party! Yay cake and ice cream!

[Deserve]

Diane I picked an interesting time to stop back by. Boobs and Pee. Good times. I'm digging the urninal. I love it but I'm to much of a suburbanite though. I need to flush. I got nothing on the bra. All I know is I like what goes in em.

[kfisherx]

LOL!!! Great updates all around. I am jealous a bit of the refeed but not of the hangover. I usually can avoid cravings too much just by thinking about the hangover part.

SS workout A, #3

Warm-up and stretchy stuff.

Squat: 1 x 10 x BW, 1 x 5 x 45#, 5 x 5 x 55#. Right shoulder was a bit looser on these today which allowed me to get in a better position... most of the time. But it freaked out an upper arm muscle and it cramped up during two of the sets. For the three good sets when my wrist/shoulder set up hit the sweet spot, the rest of my squat was rock solid. For the two bad upper body positioned ones, everything was loosey goosey. Will increase weight to 60# next time.

Bench press: 1 x 10 x 45#, 1 x 4 x 60#, 5 x 5 x 75#. Felt solid on these. Will increase to 80# next time.

Deadlift: 1 x 10 x 75#, 1 x 5 x 135#, 5 x 5 x 150#. Form dead on. I have no issues with deads at all, other than I'm starting to dread them. I think I've just been doing them straight through from the beginning of the year, I'm tired of them. That and I've lost strength on them which bites.

Notes:

1. Tilled for two hours and hoed (hoed, not ho'd) for one hour this afternoon before this evening's workout. My hands are trashed again, with new blisters and skin missing.

2. I'm love, love, loving the simplicity of the SS workouts.

3. My legs are looking floofy. Ew.
