What I'm Reading This Week #27
Happy Friday everyone! I hope you've got the day off to enjoy. I would really appreciate the weather dialing it back from Satan's taint to dryish heat please. I'm not even asking for much. Like 83 degrees would make me happy at this point but there's no end in sight to the 90's. The Mr and I have both been plagued with migraines this week. He had a two day event and I had an ocular migraine which is just so crappy to deal with since you can't read or do anything until your vision isn't screwed up. I got to wait on hold for an hour Tuesday with the state tax department so I decided to sand and prime the newel post while listening to hold music designed to make you hang up. To quote Bugs Bunny "he don't know me vewy well, do he?" I got that squared away and later went out between pop up storms to deadhead some zinnias which you may have seen in Wednesday's post. Speaking of Wednesday, it was a busy day in the ga...
It's a shame anger and frustration don't burn calories.
ReplyDeleteChild, if they did, I would be Kate Moss by now! Especially after this week! HA!
ReplyDeletePoop. The whole 'eat X calories less than you burn and you'll lose Y pounds a week' is hogwash. Our bodies are not calculators and don't seem to subscribe to that notion, at least mine doesn't. It eventually all balances out, but it doesn't make me any happier when I've busted my butt all week and see that kind of result (or worse yet, a GAIN).
ReplyDeleteIn my SP blog yesterday, I referred to our "previously abused and now confused" bodies. Shame on your scale! I'm sorry for the 2 oz. and I won't say "just wait 'til next week" or "muscle weighs more than fat".
ReplyDeleteWeight loss is a cruel process but you're a worthy opponent in the battle! Have a great Sunday!!

I say let's pummel the scale into submission and beat the snot out of it...that's got to count for some calorie burn! =o) My scale has had the EXACT same number for three weeks...and I mean to the ounce. I think it took a vacation and didn't tell me because it's deciding not to work. I find it hard to believe I haven't shifted in either direction in 3 weeks. Pfft.
ReplyDeleteWe are both in another lull it seems. It was a stressful week so lets hope we can come out of this next week with a big loss!
ReplyDeleteA loss is a loss is a loss!
ReplyDeleteI sneeze bigger than 2 oz.
ReplyDeleteI know, I know.....
ReplyDeletei haven't lost weight since last yr....well i have, but it's been 3lbs gain, 3lbs lost. so, essentially, i've been stuck since last April. *sigh*
ReplyDeleteWTF - 2 ozs! Girl, I feel ya! I hate seeing shiz like that...sheesh. Sorry the scale isn't cooperating. :-(
ReplyDeleteIf only a stern talking-to (the scale) would help! LOL
