  • Exciting News, Workout Blues

    Two topics on my mind...

    1. I am so excited about Devon's announcement of a new building I can hardly stand it. I think it is an incredible boost for OKC and aids in our city's continual growth. I'm excited to live here at such a time of change. It's fun to be a part of it. If you haven't read anything about yet, there are about ten stories on newsok.com just from today and yesterday.

    Another exciting tidbit is that this new skyscraper will be LEED certified. (Thanks laurendean for infusing me with your LEED knowledge hipness a couple weeks ago so I could feel cool and knowledgable when the announcement came out and I was the only one familiar with it. :) ) Anyway, I'm super excited, I love my job, and in case you haven't noticed I've apparently been drinking gallon jugs of the kool-aid.

    2. As for this boot camp situation, I finally realized that the trainer's "nutrition" plan was only allowing me about 500-600 calories a day so I'm on my own healthy plan now. Apparently he's an idiot and I'm sad it took me almost passing out and experiencing narcolepsy at work to realize that he's an idiot and add up the calories myself. I was almost rockin' an Ethiopian belly and was miserable because I had no energy and got really shaky. I totally felt like DJ Tanner on Full House when she stops eating and passes out at the gym. Not to mention the EXTREME workouts. I was probably burning way more than I was eating. So he's on my idiot list. Although I do think the workouts are good and plan to continue crab walking, carrying people across soccer fields on my back, etc.

    The funniest part of this bad diet realization is that I had been taking naps in the car to and from work. I didn't think anything of it until I showed up at boot camp and two girls from my work started laughing and asked, "So did you have a good nap on the way home?" Pretty embarrasing. Apparently they say I had my cheek smooshed up against the window. 

    And that's just sad.
