First NSV! I crossed my legs yesterday, and when I say I crossed them, I mean I really for reals crossed them. There was no table edge or wall there to brace my leg, there were no quivering inner thigh muscles, working against the resistance of my own fatness. Nope I just crossed them and left them there, like I was a professional leg crosser or something. Then I realized what I did, jumped up and started yelling (I was at home, not work), then immediately sat down to cross again. I needed to make sure it was not just a fluke. It wasn't, I am officially a leg crosser again!
NSV numero dos! I made it home yesterday on my jog in 47 min, that means I am at a 11.75min/mile pace. That is the fastest I have ever been on my homeward journey. I had some motivation/distraction however....that brings us to sexy books.
I listen to audiobooks ALL THE TIME! I work as a graphic designer and can often listen to books during the formatting/design stage of the project. I also listen to them when I am on my jog home, cleaning the house, doing house work, trying to fall asleep, on a plane, on a long drive, sitting on the deck at the lake house. So pretty much all the time! Night before last I started a new book, Exit to Eden (ever read it?) it's an Anne Rice novel...and it is sexy!! Now in a previous post I mentioned that I enjoy the occasional young adult book but I was not always satisfied with the 'sex' scenes. They were only make-out scenes and mama needs some penetration!! This book satisfies that requirement in spades, boy howdy. On my jog home I was so engrossed in this delicious nastiness that I didn't even have time to think about getting tired or out of breath. I just keep going and going fast! The problem with an oh-so-sexy book (and yes there can be a problem) is when I listen at work (with ear buds) I feel like everyone knows what is going on. Yesterday my HR director stopped by to ask me about our new employee handbook that I am designing for our website and I started blushing when I was talking to him. He actually asked me if I had gotten some sun. I may have to leave the sexy book time for outside of work.
Ever since my little baby fill (.5cc) I have been doing really well with my food. I can be satisfied on my 1/2c-3/4c of food and stay full for 3-4 hours. I have still been having a snack in the afternoon but I am not just grazing all day long, going to hang out in front of the fridge or cupboard staring. MFP is regularly yelling at me about not getting enough calories in a day, but I say if I am losing weight and feeling good then shut your face MFP! Just track my food and keep your stupid opinions to yourself.
Wow, that is a great pace. Good job.
ReplyDeleteHahaha, blushing at work. That's fun! So glad you have something to keep your mind off the run! : )
ReplyDeleteLove the leg crossing NSV! Its the bestest.
ReplyDeleteNice NSVs Morgan :o) I am glad you are enjoying your sexy books (wink wink)
ReplyDeleteGood job on the NSV! Many more to come I am sure.
ReplyDeleteHey, I also work in HR, and I love to look at porn at work too! I always scroll away when someone comes by of course. And if my performance reviews are anything to go by, I am as good as employee as anyone, if not better! I used to feel kinda embarrassed about it sometimes, but then I figured, you only live once!
Love your NSVs!! Yay!!! Also, MFP is hilarious... I know I am eating under the normally accepted amount of calories but before I was eating well over the normally accepted amount of calories!! xx
ReplyDeleteWonderful NSV's! Don't get me started on MFP and their "starvation" warnings.
ReplyDeleteYou may want to check out my friend's blog..she's a young adult writer trying to get published and makes some pretty good book recommendations. (http://pen-up-girl.blogspot.com/)

ReplyDeleteOMG that is the raunchiest book ever.....and I love it! So dirty, and I totally feel you about thinking people KNOW you are reading terribly dirty things haha!
ReplyDeletenewly banded, and a new follower. You are hysterical! I too am a YA book fan, and an audiobook addict. I have also had to make the decision as to what to listen to at work. :-) Looking forward to joining you on your journey!
