BellaDonna Posted July 5, 2012 Author Share Posted July 5, 2012 Today was a good day for exercise that didn't feel like exercise: Swimming in the ocean, walking on the beach. Loved every second of it. 3 different people asked where I got my swim suit (the one back in post #1016) and I lied to all 3. I don't want them getting the same one and then having to see them there in it and look like a pair of twins. It's ok for petite to have it though- she's on the other side of the world. lol Link to comment
petite Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 Mine arrived Bella. I also got this one link removed because I love the color. They are both true to size! Can't wait to wear them. Link to comment
Huntress0527 Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 I had to go back and check it out. Both yours and Petite's suit are totally cute! I would have lied too, haha. Link to comment
petite Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 I bought the one Bella has too because I love anything crochet patterned. Bella now you can come on my boat and I can go on yours because of course I'll wear my turquoise oneee Link to comment
BellaDonna Posted July 13, 2012 Author Share Posted July 13, 2012 LOL. Sounds like a plan!!! Speaking of plans, I'm still plugging away on my low carb plan. Link to comment
BellaDonna Posted July 14, 2012 Author Share Posted July 14, 2012 So my grandmother (the one who last told be she thought I looked pregnant on April 10th when I was NOT-- which put me in a panic and on a diet again) saw me yesterday and said I looked "thin". She is always the true test, as she has no filter on anything she says. YAY! I would rather look thin as opposed to knocked up, when I wasn't. Phew! Link to comment
BellaDonna Posted July 21, 2012 Author Share Posted July 21, 2012 I've been eating healthy like a champ, but working out like a slug. I've had zero motivation to exercise outside of swimming or walking. I think my gym membership swipe key might have cobwebs on it..... Link to comment

BellaDonna Posted July 30, 2012 Author Share Posted July 30, 2012 I'm slowly recovering from the worst bout of food poisoning I've ever had in my life. Losing 5lbs in 3 days can't be good. I've barely been able to tolerate water and popsicles. Just ate my first "meal" in days: toast, tea, applesauce. I pray I can retain it. If I can't then I will probably have to go to the hospital and get some IV fluids. Link to comment
Huntress0527 Posted July 30, 2012 Share Posted July 30, 2012 Hope you feel better soon! Food poisoning is a terrible thing to endure. Just keep getting some water down. Link to comment
annie24 Posted July 30, 2012 Share Posted July 30, 2012 Oh no! Do you know how you got it? Did anyone else get it? Link to comment
petite Posted July 30, 2012 Share Posted July 30, 2012 Oh My, so sorry to hear this. I was thinking about you yesterday and thought you went away to relax somewhere. Gah, food poisonings sucks. Hope you retain the meal and feel better! Link to comment
BellaDonna Posted July 30, 2012 Author Share Posted July 30, 2012 Oh no! Do you know how you got it? Did anyone else get it? Me and one of the other girls I went out with both got sick. We were the only 2 who ate appetizers at the bar/restaurant we went to. The other girls who were with us, but who only had drinks and did not eat the appetizers didn't get sick. I'm pretty sure it was the chicken nachos. Yuck! I will never eat those again. The other girl who is sick is going to call the restaurant today. Horrible! Link to comment
annie24 Posted July 30, 2012 Share Posted July 30, 2012 Ugh, sorry!! Yes, do call the restaurant! Link to comment
metrogirl Posted July 30, 2012 Share Posted July 30, 2012 I would defintaly call the restaurant and even the health department. I wonder how many other people fell ill from those toxic nachos. Sure hope you are feeling better soon. Link to comment
BellaDonna Posted August 1, 2012 Author Share Posted August 1, 2012 Feeling better today....eating normally. I did feel tired at work and a bit light-headed and unfocused. I think my brain still needs time to keep up. I ate a dark chocolate truffle to re-group (lol that is the true sign I am better! Chocolate cravings!) Link to comment
metrogirl Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 Chocolate is a cure all for everything. LOL Link to comment
petite Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 Glad to hear you're feeling better! Link to comment
sophie274 Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 Happy to hear you're on the mend! I always know there's something seriously wrong if I'm not in the mood for chocolate. Link to comment
BellaDonna Posted August 4, 2012 Author Share Posted August 4, 2012 I did lots of walking and swimming yesterday. My husband and son and I went exploring on a little island. We saw some cool old military forts, a couple of animal skeletons, some bird nests, a ton of different kinds of shells. I love spending the day with them boating with no agenda and seeing where we end up. Link to comment

BellaDonna Posted August 10, 2012 Author Share Posted August 10, 2012 I'm thinking of letting my gym membership go. I am no longer bound by a contract. I have not used it much this summer except to use the pool. I feel like I am wasting money. What I would miss most is the precor crosstrainer machine and the hot tub in the locker room. But I think I can maintain a decent level of activity at home using DVD's, walking, my stability ball, and my free weights. With the new job I have it is nearly impossible for me to get to the gym without taking more time away from my son. The gym no longer serves a purpose for him, as I don't have the same schedule I had with weekdays off and a need to take him to the child center anymore when I work out. I can only work out at night, after work or on weekends now. I don't want him in child care all day, only to pick him up after work and dump him in another childcare setting in the gym while I work out. Tough choices. Link to comment
