Well I have been totally smacked down for over a week with a nasty sinus AND ear infection. Today is the first day since last Friday that I've felt I'm not in a fog and returning to my normal oddball self. I tried to push through and work and work-out as much as I could but it did get me pretty good. Thankfully, as much as I hate to take them, I finally got some good drugs on Friday and I'm much, much better!
So I was able to weigh in Wednesday morning at WW and I was a loser! -Down another 2.4 pounds. I can see 50! 50 isn't the end-all, but it's a big number and it will be a place to almost start over and set more goals. I also said I wasn't going to get another tattoo until I lost that much weight, so there's that. Don't worry; no roses on my butt or tiger paws on my boobs.
What else is up? Fitness-wise I'm plugging along. We added one of those 100 squat challenges to go along with everything else I'm doing in the gym. So I started at 25 (with 60lbs) and move up in increments of 5 each day (3 days on and 1 off) until I get to 100. -Then we'll do another challenge. I'm up to 60. I haven't been able to do them all with the full weight because of being sick, or the bar being occupied in the gym but I use the heaviest weight I have close by- which could be my full gallon water jug, a 25lb kettlebell, or a heavier free weight. Why? I'm sure Big A needs to keep be occupied and challenged. Also, I am trying to lose all this weight but I still need a big girl booty. ;)
What's up next? Well I'm going to train Monday and Tuesday and also try to rest as much as possible for the next couple of nights. This sick business has drained me! I have a 1 mile race on Wednesday with Jaime and we're hoping to greatly improve our mile time. We'll see!
This week's obsession? Two things.
First, this. The song's been out for a bit but I just love it, and I love this band!

Second, this picture of myself from a month or so ago. I found it on my phone today and it cracks me up for no good reason. You're welcome.
