OK, so here's my embarrassing story from yesterday (please be advised that this is the exact reason that my screen name is
not chefangie!).
So, I decided to make the protein pancake recipe that Patti had posted on fb. It sounded super yummy. Mixed all the ingredients together, poured about half of the batter into a skillet. Flipped, cooked, all good. Sat down to eat them and realized that they weren't cooked all the way through. I figured that it was just supposed to be that way and that it was fine to eat raw oats. It tasted a little funny but I had put the effort in and didn't want to waste it (I HATE WASTING FOOD) so I kept eating. Later, I realized that there were egg whites in there and so I consumed lots of raw egg whites. I'm lucky I don't have salmonella. Anyway, it was gross and then I got a MASSIVE headache which I am pretty sure came from the pp I used (I never use vanilla b/c I don't like it but we had some that Ryan didn't like and later he told me it gave him headaches). OK, so I felt like absolute JUNK but the worst part was that I had this absolutely NASTY taste in my mouth. I don't know what it was from. So then, I proceeded to try to eat little things to get rid of said taste and ate way too much b/c I couldn't taste it while I was eating. Anyway, went to bed early and woke up feeling much better but STILL have this nasty taste in my mouth. I feel really stupid. UGH. What a downer.
OK, anyway, today is a new day. WO was max cardio conditioning and mm abs. MM abs are super good. I like them. Eats have been good and will stay good.
Took Ellie to the dermatologist and they said her red spot is merely a mole of blood vessels and can be (in his words) destroyed with a laser and probably won't leave a scar so we're going to do that. It's purely cosmetic but she has this pale skin so a bright red spot is pretty obvious. I'm glad it's nothing serious.
Anywho...
Kate, I am SO sorry about your vacation. Such a bummer! I would be extremely disappointed as well. You asked about my french, it's getting better. I've given up on lessons but I still feel like I'm learning! Are you planning to do two WOs today? I hate getting behind.
Katie, FIRST OF ALL - you do NOT look heavy. You look fit and fabulous and most importantly HAPPY. Don't let yourself get caught up in what you think you're supposed to look like. You and a couple of others asked what my girls will be. Annabel is going to be Jasmine and Ellie is going to be Tinkerbell. Love my little princesses. What about Collin?
Lisa, hope P is sleeping better for you tonight! Your nun costume sounds fun. I can't remember the last time I dressed up for halloween. Thanks for the congrats on Insanity. I've never been so faithful to a rotation. It feels super good.
Becky, I agree with the others. You could do a lot worse than a handful of pretzels! I'm glad you are enjoying STS in this rotation. Hope your protein pancake was better than mine!
Sorry about your yucky weather.
Nina, please hear this! As much as you run and do other workouts, your body needs to be fueled. I don't think what you ate yesterday was out of the question whatsoever. I think you need to realize how many calories are going out and how many you need to bring in to keep up with that. Hang in there with your stress factors.
Robin, it's pretty cool here too. Fall/winter is definitely here. I've taken baths the last few days to keep warm. Great job finishing your WO yesterday! YIKES about your dd in driver's ed!
Klaudia, the dress is gorgeous! I could NEVER pull something like that off. You'll look fabulous! Boy, you keep busy with those girls! How did your cp dinner turn out? I hope you can get a handle on your hypo soon. I can't imagine how that must overtake you!
Wendy, sorry about the rough weekend. We all have those. The weather is tough. It makes me want to cook creamy soups and make hearty sandwiches. I'll have to figure out a clean way to do that!
Anne, hope you survived meeting madness. Enjoy your company this weekend. Why does your sister drive you crazy?
Phew! Did I get everyone?
Gotta make some lunch and waiting around for a repair guy to come. That's always fun to figure out in French!
BBL!
