Good Friday Comedy...aka-The Plight of the Conchord

So, I had a lot of funny stuff to happen this week in my plight of slowly de-fatting myself.


I reckons I'll share.


I had a few moments of freedom at work and I decided that since I haven't had time to work out, I would do that thing where I just have fast breaks of extra movement. You know, since I can't go outside and walk the track, I would powerwalk around the floor. Seeing as I'm often perch-ed at my desk, I assumed some movement was better than none. I took the scenic route to the ice machine. I picked up the pace coming in and out of work. Just anything.


So, one day, I decided to hoof it out of work.


Something about these Reebok Zigtechs that makes me forget I'm fat.


Your girl, straight BALLED OUT! I mean, I was running for the first time since I last went to the Mid-South Fair!


I didn't even fall!


Suddenly, a man was running with me.


I said, "burning calories too"?


He said "no, I was about to ask what happened"?


I blinked. "What you mean what happened" as I slowed to a walk.


"Well, I saw you run out the building and I was trying to see if I needed to call for help".


*redface*


"No, sir...I was just trying to be more active...everything's fine".


"Oh, well, congrats on the lifestyle improvement! I should follow suit!"


See...EVERYTIME the fat chick runs...


When I got to The Cobalt and sipped my water, all I could do was roll! Ah well, I burned like a calorie running and about 40 more laughing! At any rate, I decided to try some more random stuff around the workhouse. Like, substituting my two daily Red Bulls with water. When I woke up an hour later, I realized that wasn't a good idea.


I then decided to try doing a lunge here and there. So, I walked in the supply room and took a lunge.


Suddenly, I felt someone grab my arm


"Gotcha Tam!"


"Huh"


"Thought you were about to fall!"


Yeah, so apparently, this is going to be a hilarious process. Pray for me people. I'm trying to tweak my shed-ule so I can at least walk in a park or something. Maybe I won't have fokes thinking I'm about to keel over...

Why I Decided On Surgery..De-Fat Posting

Okay so this is going to be one of those posts that will result in somebody being butthurt.  I have no earthly idea why because it means said butthurt soul would be that way for something unrelated to them. Yes, I have had Gastric Bypass Surgery...and no, I do not regret it one bit.  I also don't think it's up to anyone to tell me the following (in a completely unsolicited manner): *Who had it and regretted it *Who had it and had a gang of wrinkles, extra skin or whatnot *What they think of people who have weight loss surgery Why? Because... Yes, these memes help me be a snarky bastard yet keep the mood light. Before I go any further, I am not a jerque.  I am not someone who walks around with a perpetual attitude and my nose turned up at everyone.  I don't have disdain for people's opinions and I do accept that I am not the only person in the world.  I can discuss things and be okay if you don't roll with me.  But what

Depressed, Compressed, Oppressed, Suppressed, Damn Pressed.

I been battling depression the last month, yall. I haven't really had any motivation. I've spent the last thuddy days aggressively applying for job after job. I only got on my computer for applying. I've tried everything from receptionist to material handler and nothing has worked. I found myself getting angry. I began getting offended. I channeled my David Ruffin a la Temptations Movie and began yelling "YOU UNGRATEFUL SONS OF BITCHES" at rejection emails. I got bitter. I began feeling the urge to reply to the individuals who told me that "my experience was impressive" but they found someone "whose experience more closely matched" doing exactly what I did at my old gig. I drove up to one place that famously had me waiting FOUR HOURS only to have the owner interview someone who came in later than I did and pass me on to the other admin assistant...and fought the urge to go in and ask for him. Oh yes, children..heffer was GUN hot. Then I r

De-Fat Journey Thoughts for 7/9/12

Image
I need my ass WHOOPED for the last five days!!! I know I didn't do right. I feel kind of bad because I wasn't intending on being as sedentary on the holiday week.  I threw down the last three days on the fie barbecue, had some brownies, drank a gang of tea...UGH! Honestly, I'm alternating between emotions right now.  Do I get on my own ass for not doing right or do I applaud myself for progress thus far?  Do I acknowledge that 20 pounds of weight lost is great or do I get mad that it's not more? Well..I will not allow myself to go back to a slump about this.  I know I want to do more, and I know that I'm gathering more info to do better.  So I will give myself a shout out for still having the desire to work out and live better. Since I have never been on this type of journey before, it's still processing for me.  I have to fight the mental mind...in short, I have to be mindful that progress is progress...even if it isn't what I want it to be.
