Ok, hello log! I am just about to go to sleep after a night of errands and chores but I wanted to show you what I did over the weekend! Then I will run tomorrow.                Also unexpectedly went to the Hot Sulphur Springs and had to buy a swimsuit at Walmart. This was the only one they had that "fit" me...  So I did singlehandedly lift like a billion logs/trees, play baseball, hike for firewood, do some axe chopping, lift boulders, lift babies and shoot stuff. We didn't do an official hike but we did a fair bit of exploring and it was super fun. I'm really glad I got to go and it felt like a legit vacation. I'm absolutely wiped out now. Going to go to bed super early tonight and get back on it tomorrow!

A little work e/n: A coworker that hates me has been erasing poo poo off my whiteboard while I'm not around as a passive aggressive way to make me upset. He is one of the assistant Project Managers and everyone here dislikes him, yet I still don't understand what would make someone act so childish. I wrote him an email addressing the issue so I could get it documented and acknowledged, but I am still upset about it. Other than that, having a good day. DYING to get back to the gym ffs. While cleaning and doing chores last night I decided to try on my fairy princess dress again and to my surprise I could zip it all the way up on my own without the help of my boyfriend or without sucking in and pinching my skin in it! Where do I weaaaaaaaaaaaaar it?!     Food 08.07.12   I think I am really starting to not like my hair this blonde. I have spent so much time and energy turning it back that I feel stupid I don't like it... What should I do with it now?  I feel like lifting tonight but I probably should run. Wanna lift some burgers... to my mouth.  Norse Code fucked around with this message at Aug 7, 2012 around 22:07 |

Wear that dress to a rave or move to Portland and do Bike Prom. I also spent a ton of time/money/effort turning my hair blond and didn't like it. I dyed it back (which was another gently caress-all of a process), but I'm much happier with it not blond. v  v ymmv. Still lookin' rad!

I think I'm pretty close to changing it back to dark hair instead of blonde then. I wonder what colors I should do now? Last night's workout was kind of lovely, I was feeling pretty crappy for some reason. Workout 08.07.12 Abductor Machine: - 90 lb x 12 reps - 110 lb x 8 reps - 110 lb x 8 reps Adductor Machine: - 110 lb x 12 reps - 130 lb x 8 reps - 130 lb x 8 reps Cycling: - 0:12:00 || 2 mi - 0:12:00 || 2 mi Running (treadmill): - 0:14:00 || 1.3 mi - Felt like I was dying, the worst run ever  Walking (treadmill): - 0:15:00 || 0.75 mi || 3.5 mph || 135 bpm || 12 % Plank: - 60 sec - 60 sec - 60 sec fito2sa Food 08.08.12   Macros will be good today. The bakery next door is having an ALL YOU CAN EAT PIE event for $5/person. All of my coworkers are going and wanting me to go. I might go but probably not. I feel like I wouldn't be able to eat more than a slice anyways.

Forgive me self for I have sinned. My boss bought me entrance into an all you can eat pie day at the bakery next door. NEEDLESS TO SAY, whatever I hadn't eaten on the list above I will probably skip now that I've fulfilled the day's calories (probably). Here are the flavors I tried (only one bite, unless it was a pot pie or quiche): New England Blueberry Cheese Peach Struesel Michigan Cherry Almond Dutch Apple Banana Cream Boston Cream Pie Swiss Chocolate Mousse Keylime New York Cheese Cake Old Fashioned Pecan Vermont Maple Pumpkin Quiche Lorraine Chicken Pot Pie Beef Pot Pie (by far my favorite) Gonna lift so hard tonight then probably throw up all the pie while deadlifting lookin' like that guy in Stand By Me: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9S7kg1IhZ7M

I felt all bro'd out on this, so many people were watching so I couldn't fail, including an amazing muscley amazon black chick that is so hot and strong that works out at my gym and she saw and basically I want to be friends with her or maybe date her  .... I lifted all strong to this:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DsYwtkNM3i4 I totally threw up pie into my mouth on the last rep but I kept it down  Parallel-Grip Pull-Up: - 8 reps || assisted || 64 lb - 8 reps || assisted || 64 lb - 8 reps || assisted || 64 lb Pull-Up: - 8 reps || assisted || 70 lb Standing Dumbbell Triceps Extension: - 25 lb x 8 reps - 25 lb x 8 reps - 25 lb x 8 reps Hanging Straight Leg Raise: - 12 reps - 12 reps - 12 reps Standing Military Press: - 30 lb x 8 reps - 40 lb x 8 reps - 50 lb x 8 reps Preacher Curl: - 25 lb x 8 reps - 25 lb x 8 reps - 35 lb x 8 reps fito2sa Workout out felt good, and I felt strong. That poor little Gregory guy was there and he saw me when he walked in but I didn't acknowledge him. Before he could come up to talk to me (while I was mid deadlift) I saw him fail a bench with no spotter (I think it was like 165lbs?) and felt SO bad for him. I put the weight down but that hot chick came and curled the weight like it was nothing and he spent the rest of the day with her. Gonna play some Diablo 3 and listen to Opeth!

I was kind of  zoned out into football (OMG I MISSED IT SO MUCH)...Plank: - 60 sec - 60 sec - 60 sec Static Wall Sit: - 60 sec - 60 sec - 60 sec General Yoga: - 0:15:00 - crow (ha), cobra, eagle, tree, cat / cow, vinyasa or some poo poo Stretching: - 0:15:00 fito2sa Another hard run day. Did some excercises with some coworkers during the day, it's fun. Is it normal after running to have the place behind your knees tingly like they fell asleep? Also I was very dizzy after this run. Biking home was pretty hard but the night air was finally starting to cool down and it felt nice. I am really liking having the bf come to the gym with me... maybe he will... please get huge  Here are a couple more "Bri is drunk" camping pics, and also I lifted the poo poo out of this child multiple times:

So I have been really depressed lately about my weight hovering between 146 and 148, especially since I've been lower before. I know I shouldn't be worrying so much to the number on the scale anymore, but god damnit it bothers me. I decided to take some measurements today, since I am impatient. I'll take more measurements 8 days from now when it has been an entire month, but here is todays: 7/18/12 ---> 08.10.12 Bust - 35.5" ---> Bust - 35.25" Waist - 28.25" ---> Waist - 27.25 Hips - 38.5" ---> Hips - 37.75 Arms - 12.25" ---> Arms - 12" Thigh - 19.25" ---> Thigh - 19" Calf - 14" ---> Calf - no change This makes me feel a little better but I still irrationally want to see the number on the scale go down. I guess this means I am like a ~* beautiful diamond *~ ... getting... harder.

Wanna see that bod cut glass  Really, you are thin enough now (and I get that this can be hard to "see" yourself, especially if you've been trying to lose weight for a long time) that the scale just won't budge as easily, and you're lucky in that recomp is happening on its own You honestly look amazing and have even more amazingness ahead of you. Best part is you're super cool too so the universe is finally getting something right

Wow girl awesome progress! When I saw your pics I was all like Lookin' p. rad in your digs. I love the fairy princess dress. Wear it to the grocery store or on a date with your bf. As for your hair, my vote is to let it go natural! I have no idea what your natural hair looks like but I'm sure it is as awesome as you.

Front squat form is pretty solid. Really make sure you keep your core braced so you don't fold at the bottom and try to catch a bounce to help you out of the hole. But they are nitpicks, for a (quite heavy!) PR that form's really good.

Thanks guys! I feel more badass lately, and strong. Front squats are a lot harder to gently caress up form wise... Just had a breakfast of low carb Chile Relleno Casserole and now am gonna go ride bikes up to the park and play football, practice the monkey bars and be active. I know I'm supposed to run today but just haven't been feeling it lately. It is exactly 1 week till Warrior Dash and I'm nervous but also excited!

Workout 08.12.12 Did anything within my power to avoid running today. Decided to ride my bike a lot, spend time outside and play football w/ the bf. Cycling: - 0:32:00 || 5.1 mi - 0:22:00 || 3.6 mi - 0:20:00 || 3.7 mi American Football: - 1:15:00 || just for fun - Basically toss, then like an hour of punting the ball to each other and running around like idiots. fito2sa I ate over on calories yesterday and today, about 1600ish calories? I felt pretty active both days though, so hopefully it'll be ok. I didn't eat bad food or anything, just more. I've been so hungry! The bf made me a delicious steak and asparagus!  It was amazing, but also I miss... pizza.
