Psychotomy

OK, so, I never made it past the first week of that 100-pushups thing. Not because I can’t do it (although, i’m not sure I’d've made it, anyway), but because I can’t DO it. With DK’s stuff everywhere, it’s hard to find a space large enough to stretch prone to DO a push up. Then when DK is awake, he wants to come see what I’m doing and climb on me. And when K’s around, he wants to come stand RIGHT UNDER ME. Makes it hard to do the ‘down’ so I CAN push ‘up’.

So, I’m kindof abandoning that I guess.

Then we got a workout video thing for exercising with the baby. Except (a) the person talking is really insipidly annoying (?), which is really to be expected. They want perky cheerful people. But then the exercises, half of them I can’t (who has enough room in their house, with a baby, to act like a sumo-wrestler?) or won’t do (I refuse to believe there is an actual benefit to making stupid noises at DK). YOU may be doing these in an empty studio that has 3 adults, 3 yoga mats, 3 babies/toddlers, and 3 tiny-ass baskets of toys, but *I’m* doing it at home with the baby’s stuff. Lemme tell you. Not the same :o

Still, it was a damn good workout the two days I did it. Just hard to find a time when I want to spend 45 minutes of me & des to workout. Although it is a nice break from days on end playing xbox with him, I s’pose.

Started working on Weight Watchers(tm) again this week. The chart stuff indicates 24-30 points a week for me. Yesterday was 50. Today is looking to be 40+. My piece of pumpkin bread in the morning is 8. Actually, it was 12, but I cut it smaller yesterday. I started saying something about it “did you see this morning I took …” and Kiir filled in for me “waaaaaay way way too much?” … so maybe not as better as I thought :/ So today I took a SMALLER slice. Next time I make bread I need to make the three smaller loave the recipe calls for. Because cutting soft crumbly bread to a quarter inch thickness is hard. And not very filling.

But my healthy cheese sammich for lunch? Two slices of wheat bread, and two slices of munster cheese? 8 points again! WTF! *sigh* I should drop it to 1 slice of cheese (cheese = 3 pts, bread = 1pt). But I don’t know if that’s enough flavour. Milk? 2-3 pts depending on which glass (well, the really small glass would be 1 and the really big one is 4, but I’m assuming I’m usually using one of the 3 middle sizes, since I only have 2 of the small small and the big big i usually don’t fill all the way).

Still. Some pumpkin bread, two glasses of milk, and a sandwich, and I’m up 15 points, nearly 20 if I keep the second slice of cheese or take the bigger slice of pumpkin :/

OI!
