biggest loser

Guess who is the official winner of the workplace weight loss challenge?!?!  I almost didn't participate but a coworker was going down to weigh in and we were talking so I just went with him.  I couldn't remember what my start weight was but I knew I had lost in the 8 weeks.  I was last to weigh in and the guy over it told me I had to beat 6%....over 8% lost baby!!!  The reward for my efforts, 59 minutes of leave 😆

Marcy is eating better but still back to her normal self.  I have found that chicken deli meat works wonders in getting her pills down.  I had some leftover nuggets from Tuesday that I had set out and after I gave her her afternoon pill she went sniffing for them.  Well without thinking I gave her a few.  At this point I don't think it makes much difference.  Her liver enzymes are pretty elevated, not off the charts but high.  I called to ask the vet about bringing her in to get her vaccines that she needs and she told me that it probably wasn't necessary to stress her out. 

I made it to the gym twice this week for training!!  I found out Tuesday that my Thursday group changed times so I don't have a group anymore.  They meet at 5:30, which I could do but with the baby shark aka Bailey it is just easier to wait until Dennis gets off work and go at 6:30.  Well I am almost out of sessions and I really can't afford to buy one on one training and group training sessions, hell, I can't really afford the one on one period.  Anyway, we talked about it Tuesday and couldn't figure out how to go about it but we both came up with the same solution of coming in at 6 and doing 30 minutes with the group and 30 minutes on my own.  She gave me the option of continuing, buying the group sessions and using 2 of them per session (which is about the same price) or just doing 30 minutes.  Although the 30 minutes option sounds appealing, I don't think I get a good workout in that amount of time.  We will see how it works out.  At any rate I bought 20 sessions.  That should hold me over for awhile. 

Work is going really well.  I am finding my groove finally.  I was appointed to a national committee and feel like I finally have something to contribute.  We have an annual work group meeting 29 April - 3 May in Saint Paul, MN.  The next week I have training in Idaho so it will be a stressful few weeks.  I haven't left Bailey overnight yet.  I probably need to do that for a trial run to let him get used to having daddy in charge.  I know he will be fine but he is my little baby.  Truman and Marcy don't need me anymore and are used to the routine.  I don't want to think about leaving Marcy for two weeks in the condition she is in but we are taking it one day at a time right now. 

I would write out my gym routines but I can't for the life of me remember and she is having me do some strange multi-muscle things that surely don't have names this side of hell..
