A little late - sorry - BUT I did do the photo shoot in my purple suit/pumps!  Now, before anyone gets too excited, after I saw the pics I have a new respect for models!  My girlfriend was amazing taking the shots - she would coach along, saying "Good, bit more arch in your back, head back, flex your left arm, wrap around the pole... you get the idea.  We did our share of laughing though too of course!  And then when I looked at the shots I was not all that happy.  I felt my makeup was wrong, hair was wrong, body wasn't 'fit' enough... I feel ugly, old, and fat!!!  ARGH!!!

Ok, enough of that (hubby liked them!)

I have the splitting-est head-ache today, but I went down and did a work out.  It was actually not bad!  I read on one of the fitness sites that in order to burn more fat try doing a stint of cardio at the end of your work out.  So I did.  I got a good song on my MP3 and just went till my glutes/quads/calves burned.  This inevitably means that my right leg is starting to buckle in and I have to sort of hold/push my knee out so I get an equal quad there - very annoying and it totally messes up my 'groove' but... what do ya do?

Told my hubby today that I'm going to push protein, lower my carbs (except complex good ones like veggies!) SO for lunch today I had (and it was really good!) an 'omlette in a bowl' Hubby said it sounded gross, but hey, I gotta get this fat off!  I'm 40 now and I don't want to turn to mush - yet.  MAYBE when I'm 90... Hubby works out like crazy and we're constantly doing the flex thing in the bathroom mirror or saying 'feel this, eh? eh?' so I'm not going down! I can't. I know, we're nuts my daughter says we're nuts.

This being my attitude, MS doesn't stand a chance! I MUST make sure I have my fish and Omegas for supper because the Omegas are anti-inflammatories and will help to keep the inflammation of my nerves/myelin down which in turn allows my immune system to not damage itself.  Now with all the new studies going with CCSVI (Chronic CerebroSpinal Insufficiency) they're not even sure if it IS an immune thing anymore.  However they're still studying so there must be SOMETHING there!

You know, a few years ago while I was doing chemo (YUCK!) I said to my hubby that 'just watch, after all this pharmaceutial stuff and drugs it'll turn out to be something so simple! And here it is!

Let's hope, let's hope!

Either way, none of this stuff can hurt.  I do check with my Dr. if I'm going to do something I think may be questionable (We have shaken on the fact that I will not do anything stupid before talking to him).  I basically just say that 'This is what I'm thinking of doing and why, will it hurt me or be beneficial?  And he's good in that he'll say what he thinks whether or not he thinks it will do any good.  That being said, when I went in to get B12 shots he said he'll do it but he didn't think it would do anything.  (I do it myself now anyway-why run  in if I injected for so long before why can't I?) He's good in that he said he doesn't do the natural stuff as that's not what he's trained in, but he'll give me his opinion.  (Whether or not I listen....)

Wow. I'm totally blabbing. Sorry.

I'm going to check out this ProteinShot stuff and see if I can get myself  a little more 'cut'.  It used to be dream when I was in high school to be a body builder...yeah that didn't work out so well.  Kids, divorce, disease kinda threw a monkywrench in that.
BUT!!! I'm not dead!
I'm not in a chair!
I'm only (!!!) 40!
I'm still pretty! (fine that's a matter of opinion, but it's mine)
I gotta do it!

Do it along with me!

L8R GTR!  B Hlthy!
