TGIF

1) Wow.. I was able to get onto my blog this morning. YIPEE!
2) Dress fitting TONIGHT. If thats not motivation to eat well today, I dunno what is!
3) An entire container of blueberries opened up in my lunch bag today. Me = not impressed.
4) I was also not impressed that on the ONLY night I watch TV, all my shows were repeats.
5) I have an off site meeting all morning today, so there will be no snacks today. Thats ok.
6) Bootcamp was almost a puke fest again today. He kills us on Fridays, I'm ok with that though. He kept on encouraging me by saying "COME ON AMY... THINK OF WALKING DOWN THE AISLE". That was awesome, and made me work my ass off.
7) I'm sooo happy tomorrow is Saturday.

Menu for today:

B: Oatmeal with banana and blueberries
L: Sushi
D: Chicken, brocoli, sweet potato fries. I'm going to attempt to make goat cheese stuffed chicken breasts. I have no recipe... but I think I can wing it.

Hidi-Ho Bloggers!

  • Day 2 of blog withdrawl. I honestly have no idea how I will endure an entire workday without a little blog therapy.
  • Not a lot to report today.... Bootcamp was kettlebells, which equal sore hands and sore muscles tomorrow. I've said it before, but I'm always amazed at the cardio I get out of a kettlebell session when its primarily a strength workout.
  • I had East Sides for lunch... Goat Cheese Chicken with roasted veggies (no taters) it was delicious. Nutrition Action did an interesting article this month which outlined the healthier choices at Boston Pizza and East Sides. Check it out!
  • I didn't snack today which was somewhat different for me.
  • My dress fitting is tomorrow. I'm petrified.
  • I'm off to catch up on all your blogs before bed. Needless to say, bedtime comes sooner then later when I wake up at 4am everday!

Short, sweet to the point

  • Fucking work must have done a network lockdown.. because now all blogger sites are blocked. BOOO!
  • My ring can be made to look perfect once again. Yay for great jewellers.
  • I found my wedding shoes today.
  • My old boss told me I look skinny today
  • I rocked at bootcamp today... beating my shuttle run/beep test score by an ENTIRE level... thats 9 length of the gym. WOOO!
  • Gotta go eat. BYE

Pity party Tuesday

1. My arms are complete jello. A complete upper body workout with kettlebells this morning. Usually I get sore overnight, but currently I cannot lift my arms over my head and its only 8:12am!

2. Panic has suddenly hit me today. Re: wedding.

3. My co-worker (who has no couth) just asked why my pants were tight. :(

4. I showed my Aunt (who is basically my mom) a picture of my ring set. First thing she commented on was how they don't fit. I mean, they fit... but she's right. They're not perfect. This made me all stressed out. I tried it on again when I got home, and she's right. I paid a lot of cash to have that ring custom made, and now it sucks because my diamond broke and I had to get a new E-ring. Guess who's not wearing ANY rings today?

5. I must preface this rant, by saying.. Yes I know this is totally selfish. Andrew's cousin Peter (25) has a brain tumour. Things are not going really well for him at this point in time. His mom, is the one thats marrying us. What do we do, if God forbid, he passes away before the wedding?

Merrrrrrrrrrrry Christmas!

Our very first Christmas Tree in our very first house.

A.K.A- The new bed of my handsome boys Lewis and Samuel (peaking in the back)


I couldn't resist posting this... Lewis gets a little too eager to find out exactly what food is on the counter. He's trying sooo hard to get up there. Hehe. Who needs kids when you have fur babies!

Lessons Learned

- Do not watch The Notebook when you are already feeling sad. I woke up this morning with the puffiest little excuses for eyes. That movie kills me everytime, I have no idea what I torture myself like that. On a side note, Andrew's cousin is friends with Rachel McAdams. She sometimes vacations at their cottage! Andrew has met her, but not me.

- Kitties who have never seen a large 7.5ft Christmas Tree are annoying, but adorable. I'll post some pictures as proof later.

-Chicken stew is delicious.

-Working your ass off at bootcamp is a great way to shake outta your funk. I feel great today.

- Eating an entire granola bar before bootcamp makes me feel pukey. Must stick to my current half.

Menu for Monday
Pre BC: Granola Bar
Post BC: Protein shake
B: Oatmeal with apples, rasisins
S: banana
L: Chicken Stew
S: 2 tangerines, apple
D: Andrew is BBQ'ing steak, baked taters and zuchinni boats.
S: Fudge bar

AP's: Working my ass off at Bootcamp.

Funky Sunday

I dunno what it is... this weekend, I've been IN A FUNK.
No ambition to do anything
No desire to workout
Wanting to fill my face (although, i didn't)
Perfectly content to sit on the couch in my jammies and do nothing.
I hate that Andrew works weekends.
At least today I had a shower.

Picture Saturday

Who loves diamonds? I DO, I DO! Picked up my wedding band to avoid it not fitting my new ring... and here is my set. I looooove it so much.



And a big thanks to Angie for rec0mmending Ricotta as pasta sauce. Below: WW spaghetti tossed with ricotta, topped with zuchinni, chicken, mushrooms, spinach, fresh basil, roasted red peppers and garlic. Sooo good!

Freaky Friday...

...or at least thats what Mr Bootcamp calls it. Today's workout was wicked hard, and I thought I might puke at one point! Yay intensity!

...So, tonight we're going to pick up my wedding band and bring it to Peoples to ensure it fits my new ring. I've decided against replacing the actual diamond. I've heard too many nightmares about shitty stones getting put back in. I probably didn't phrase myself correctly when I said get a 'new ring'. I'd get the exact same ring, or the exact same ring with a bigger centre stone is all. People's have both rings in stock, and I've decided to let Andrew decide!

...I feel super skinny in my jeans today. They are so flattering. I never buy pants at Reitmans, but I got these there for $22 and they are great!

...An observation I made yesterday: No bootcamp = a much less hungry Amy. I was full and satisfied all day. Today, not so much. Hungry already. This is the case after every bootcamp class!

...I have a kazllion zuchinnis to use up. I was thinking of pasta with alfredo sauce, chicken and zuch's. Any other ideas?

...Speaking of zuchinni, for Julie re: Boats. Its pretty simple, I just kinda hollow it out by scooping out the seeds, brush with olive oil, S&P, and goat cheese crumbles. I've already BBQed them, but I'm sure you could throw them in the oven also!

...Have a great Friday!

Ring Update

So, it turns out the manager at People's has some actual customer service skills, who would have thought!?? I went in there ready to fight, but he was totally accomodating.

I now how 3 options.

1) Send ring away to replace diamond
2) Take a new version of the same ring I have
3) Upgrade to a larger centre stone.

My concern: I had my wedding band custom made to fit this ring (at a different jewellery shop) Its currently sitting in the vault at said other store, which is about 30 mins away. Its snowing like a banshee outside. I don't want to do anything without having my band, to ensure it fits whatever sparkly I choose.

Is it selfish to want a bigger stone? Mine is currently a 1.0k, and the new would be 1.3k, and its reallllllly nice. In principal though, I don't like the fact I'm paying them more money because their product sucked... ya know?

What would you do?

Pissed at myself

1. I skipped bootcamp this morning. No 'real' reason.. mainly just because the weather is super shitty here today. I'm actually really pissed at myself. Not because I missed a workout, but mainly because of the principle of it. There was nooo reason physically why I couldn't have gotten myself there. I'm going to punish myself at the gym tonight. If I make it. We're supposed to get 15cm of snow today. FUCK.

2. This brings me to my next point. Quebec drivers. I live in Quebec yes. I'm not a Quebecer though. Its hard not to stereo-type when talking about Quebec drivers. Especially in the snow. Its ridiculous. I almost died twice this morning just driving my ass to work. There was a collision in my subdivison. I live in a totally residential area, how is this even possible??????? Gah.

3. So yesterday I found a crack/splinter/fracture in my engagement ring. Andrew bought it at People's... and I happen to work right beside the mall where he bought it. Upon noticing it, I immediately trucked over there with my heart racing. Needless to say, the service was mediocre. I left there incredibly mad. I will be going back this afternoon to speak to the manager. We have a lifetime warranty... does that not speak for itself? My Aunt suggested I demand a brand new ring. My concern is that I have no say in the stone they replace my current one with. I have a very nice diamond, and because they send it away to get it repaired. I'm very concerned. My other concern is the timeline involved. WEDDING IS IN 6 WEEKS!

4. So yah. I'm grumpy/bitchy and disappointed.

5. On a more positive note.. we had Red Lobster for supper and the entire meal cost me 14 points. Not bad eh? Fried shrimp (4) Potato (3) sole (3) cheese biscuit (4)

Menu for today:

B: oatmeal creation
S: cherry chocolate fondue yogurt
L: Hearty Bean Vegetable soup, sliced cucumber, cheese and crackers
S: apple, 2 slices FF ham
D: Chicken breast, rice, broccoli

AP's: boxing with the People's guy, gymbo

Grumpy

1. Woke up to snow this morning. This is ok. This would be more ok, if people knew how to drive in snow.
2. My skin feels gross today.
3. I had a fight with my dad last night; the end result was a sleepless night and a very tired Amy today
4. I'm still proud about my brownie-potential-crisis last night.

Menu:
B: Oatmeal, apple, raisins, brown sugar twin
S: Lemon meringue yogurt
L: Lean cuisine pizza
S: apple
D: I think its a good soup and sammy night.

CRISIS

  • There is a brownie waiting for me
  • I'm in my serious 'after dinner- need something sweet' mode
  • I'm going to cover it in salt and throw it out
  • I'm really not even hungry
  • I'm going to wax off my mustache, then get my stuff ready for the morning
  • Facial hair is gross
  • So is that brownie
  • It will turn to fat
  • Fat is gross too.

UPDATE: Brownie is in the garbage, and my upper lip is silky smooth!

- Goooooooood morning. Winter is rapidly approaching, starting with freezing rain this morning. Made for a crappy drive in, but at least I leave early enough to have zero traffic.

- Kettlebells are growing on me. Tues/Thurs are always kettlebells at bootcamp. Today we had to do 'walking swings' from one length of the gym to the other. My heart was POUNDING. Check out the link of what exactly a walking swing is... looks simple yes, but such a good workout!
http://www.zippyvideos.com/2444391056617196/451_0_walking_swings1/

I LOVE BOOTCAMP! I need to get back running though, its been suffering as a result of bootcamp.

- I was completely totally 100% OP yesterday. Go me! Didn't make it to the gymbo or running though. Ah well.

- Today I will do the same, mainly because I loved my food day... so I'm having the exact same thing today!

- I've been having trouble feeling full after breakkie lately. I find my plain oatmeal with chopped apple and raisins does the trick in keeping me full.

- I am hating just about everything on TV of late. Not that I'm a TV junkie, but I'm not really into anything. Thursday is the only 'good' tv night, and even then, I'm finding the show's aren't keeping my interest. Bring back 24 and Lost already dammit!

- The slacker at bootcamp was the ultimate slacker today. She actually sat down on the wall and watched. Kettlebells are hard, but not impossible. And this is Xtreme Bootcamp dammit. Get outta here slacker woman. There's my vent for the day.

Monday, November 19, 2007

6 weeks today....

...I will be a married woman! Hard to believe its coming up so fast! If thats not motivation to work my ass off, and eat healthy.... I dunno what is!

- Yesterday was good. We bought our very first Christmas tree! I was really keen on getting a pre-lit one, but then decided against it. We did a little test, pulling one out... and sure enough half the tree went out. I need to find a nice tree skirt to go with it. Our tree decorations are all red and silver. I cannot wait to put it up!

- We tried some of the PC's new Indian food. It was delicious. I'll post a review later on tonight. I kinda have heartburn today which is odd.

- Bootcamp was good this morning.... didn't KILL me, so I'll hit up the gym (or the pavement) tonight for some more cardio. I'm thinking sprints. Outside. I want to beat my time on the next beep test.

- On a side note, I'm completely suffering from static cling today. I cannot leave my desk.

- Shout out to my fellow bride-to be Lynn, 50 lbs gone! Way to go skinny!

Menu for today:
B: plain oatmeal with cut up apples, raisins and brown sugar twin.
S: yogurt
L: Lean Cuisine pizza, apple
S: yogurt
D: chicken breast, sweet potato fries, brocolli.

Another good food day!

Sunny Saturday

  • Gooooooooooood morning! Its a beautiful, cold but sunny morning out there today.
  • Had a good workout at step class this morning. At the end of my class, I did my 50 pushups and 50 situps.
  • Do you ever get excited about having good food in the house? We did a wicked grocery shop at Costco and Loblaws.... this week had great food in store for us. Crunchy chicken breast, sweet potato fries, brocoli, and a variey of PC's new Indian food! Me = excited!

Friday, November 16, 2007

1. Gooooooood morning, Happy Friday!
2. Bootcamp pretty much kicked my ass once again today. Today was the 'ladder circuit'. 10 pushups, 1 lap, 9 pushups, 1 lap.. etc etc etc. He had 6 different stations set up: Kettlebell swings, pushups, superman lifts, medicine ball squat, shoulder press, situps. Needless to say, I did a lot of reps and a lot of laps of the gym!
3. Today was proof though, that just because you're thin dosn't mean you're fit. One lady puked, one had to leave, one was in the hallway sucking on her puffer. Go chubby me!
4. I'm happy its the weekend. No big plans really... other then a quick trip home to see Andrew's momma and get his tux.
5. Oh, and a side note... on the flower post. The first one is my bouquet, and the all white one is for my BMs.

Menu for today:
Pre BC: 1/2 granola bar
Post BC: 1/2 granola bar
B: Plain oatmeal with apples and brown sugar twin
S: 1 oz old cheddar, 11 WW crackers
L: Lunch out at Mongolian Village... a create you own stir fry place.
S: Apple, 11 almonds
D: WW pasta, with extra lean ground beef.
S: 1 creamsicle.

Yum. Its a good food day!

My Wedding Flowers




What do you think?? These are actual pictures.



Discuss amoungst yourselves... :)
1. Thursday is here!
2. Bootcamp was sweaty today. Mr. Bootcamp hooked me up to a sled thing, and made me pull him around the gym. I was kinda shocked at how strong I was.
3. My life is pretty BORING this week. After all the action packed weekends of late, this weekday stuff is so low key!
4. This weekend we're heading home for the day on Sat so Mr. Bellamy can pick out his tux. I'd ideally like it to be a surprise for me... but I vetoed white tuxes and bow ties.

Menu for today:

Pre-BC: 1/2 granola bar
Post-BC: 1/2 granola bar
B: apple, almonds
S: 1oz cheese with 11 WW crackers
L: Moroccan stew, banana, yogurt

The Beep Test = Dead Amy

1. Good morning
2. This morning I met my nemesis: The Beep Test. See blurb below:

The test involves running continuously between two points that are 20 m apart. These runs are synchronised with a pre-recorded audio tape or CD, which plays beeps at set intervals. As the test proceeds, the interval between each successive beep reduces, forcing the athlete to increase velocity over the course of the test, until it is impossible to keep in sync with the recording.

The recording is typically structured into 23 'levels', each of which lasts 60 seconds. Usually, the interval of beeps is calculated as requiring a speed at the start of 8.5 km/h, increasing by 0.5 km/h with each level. The progression from one level to the next is signalled by 3 rapid beeps. The highest level attained before failing to keep up is recorded as the score for that test.

The procedure is designed to measure the maximum endurance of an individual.

3. The RCMP has a pass of 6.5... and guess who got 6.5? ME! I was pretty proud of myself... but let me tell you, this was FRIGGING HARD. I could have easily puked at the end. One lady got a level 10... and it seemed effortless as she was floating down the gym. My lungs hurt, and I've been coughing since it was completed. But its proof that I pushed myself TO THE MAX!

4. I made Shirls' Mexican Meatloaf last night. Sooo delicious. Check out her recipe blog for the recipe. (I can't link on my work computer)

5. I need a nap.

6. My mister is sicker then a dog... sore throat, chills, fever the works. I went to cuddle up to him at one point last night and he was soaked with sweat. Poor man.

Its been a while since I've posted my menu:
Pre-bootcamp: Granola bar
B: apple, yogurt
S: banana, yogurt
L: Leftover meatloaf, sliced cucumber, WW wrap with light veggie cream cheese
D: Moroccan Stew... YUM!

AP"s: Crazy friggin hard beep test, 50 situps, 50 pushups. I may go to step class tonight. We'll see.

X-treme Bootcamp Day#2

1. Hi!
2. X-treme bootcamp is in full swing... I have the blisters on my hands to prove it, from swinging that awful kettlebell. Ah well, it will make me strong!
3. Fitness test results: 20 full pushups, 10 half.... plank: 1 min 25 secs..... 45 situps. Tomorrow we do the shuttle run, and I'm not really sure what that even is.
4. I gave my cold to my mister.
5. I have the 2 cutest cats in the whole world... I woke up this morning and the 2 of them (and they hate each other) we snuggled in between Andrew and I. Usually its one cat on the bed, one in the hall.
6. Now that bootcamp is back... Hopefully my eating habits will be a little better.

Monday, November 12, 2007

And the evidence has surfaced....

I cannot lie... I like to party! I had the night of my life with all my amazing ladies!

Stagette/Bachelorette Day!

  • Gotta admit... I'm pretty excited. We're leaving here at 8h30 to head over to our friends house where Andrew will be kidnapped, and so will I!
  • 4 girls, roadtrip to Guelph.... Can't wait.
  • We'll be meeting the rest of my wedding party, and some university friends there for a night of mayhem.
  • I had to buy a size XL size though, WTF is that about? A little hard on the ego... I cannot lie.
  • Tomorrow I will be a good WWer. Afterall, I'll probably be puking. :)
  • Have a great day! xoox

Friday, November 9, 2007

1. T minus 1 day until my road trip to Guelph for my stagette... woooo hooo!
2. I ate 3 cookies yesterday, but I worked them off at step class... AND had salad and chicken for supper. Crisis averted!
3. We a dinner/movie date with our best man and his gf tonight. They want to go to Wild Wings... this is not a WW friendly restaurant. I'm going to work on veto'ing it. I don't even really enjoy chicken wings. Actually, I think I dislike the sound effects that come out of Andrew more then I dislike the actual wings! :)
4. Not much to say today. I'm leaving early to go get some waxing done. Oh joy.

Thursday, November 8, 2007

Ugly Shirt Day

1. So it seems I'm one of the few festive people today... I picked up 2 shirts, and boy are they hideous. I forgot my camera, but I'm sure someone will be taking pics today. Worst part is, I think people forgot about it... so man, I'm getting some odd looks from people!

2. There is also a bake sale at work today. I made brownies... and I may have eaten a couple when I was putting them in tupperware to bring in to the office. I will eat salad for lunch.

3. Speaking of salad... I'm friggin addicted to it as of late. Last night Andrew picked up a package from Costco... it comes with white balsamic dressing, feta, cranberries and almonds. Its Deeeeelicious paired up with a chicken breast. I think tonight I will concauct another salad creation for supper. YUM! Poor Andrew.

4. Didn't make it to the gym last night ethier. I was at work until 7h30. Yes, I work for the gov't.. and i was at work until 7h30. BRUTAL! Tonight me and the mister will go.

Wednesday, November 7, 2007

Drumroll please... 7 random facts about moi

1. I made it all the way through university without drinking coffee. I didn't start drinking coffee until I was on strike while working for Parks Canada... there was nothing else to do on the picket line, and it was cold. So I drank coffee. Now I'm a one a day coffee drinker. 1/2 milk, 2 splenda.

2. I have a secret obsession with becoming a police officer. I'm surrounded by members everyday at work, and I even buy all their cars. I think however, I'm too nice to become a cop. Plus, I couldn't handle the pay cut! haha

3. I have a fear of finances. I often don't even open my mail to avoid being burdened by the thought of owing money.

4. I have had a one night stand.... once. There were a group of IBMers from Vermont in my hometown for a hockey tournament. We actually kept in touch for a few years, and even rendez-vous'ed a few times in Montreal (half way point) So I guess when it was all said and done, it became more of a long distance 'friends that f_ck' kinda deal.

5. When I was in grade one, I was 'identified' and was supposed to move up to grade 2. I hated the grade 2 teacher, so I cried and went back to my grade one teacher. That same grade one teacher came to my grade 8 graduation, highschool grad, and even drove all the way to Guelph for my university grad!

6. My brother and I have a totally unique relationship. I think it stems back to having lost our mother at such a young age. We grew up more like buddies then the typical brother/sister relationship. I love that kid more then life.

7. I have a weird paranoia that I'm preggo... ALL the time! Sometimes I even convince myself that I can feel a baby moving in there.

Sickie Pants

1. Still feeling 'meh'. Went to bed at 8:00pm, high on nighttime Contact C. I've been chugging the liquids, and resting.
2. I didn't go to the gymbo last night. I was pretty wiped after work, so I opted for a blanket and the couch.
3. Being sick is certainly beneficial for staying OP. I have no taste buds or appetite!
4. My dad is driving me nuts with wedding stuff. He's decided (after the invites have been out for 2 months) that he wants a dinner... and that we should change the wedding to 6pm. I want to kill him.
5. Tomorrow is ugly shirt day at work. I'm going out at lunch to find the ugliest shirt ever at Value Village!

Tuesday, November 6, 2007

Back on Track!

1. Last night was a success. I went to kickboxing class, then did 50 push-ups and 50 sit-ups. Since bootcamp, I'm finding that pushups are really a fantastic exercise for your upper body, and I'm going to keep doing at least 50 every day. I also stayed completely OP, and measured out all my portions for the first time in at least a week! Wahoo me!

2. There is a new session of classes that started at the gymbo... Tonight its "Step Bootcamp". We'll see how that goes.

3. I'm getting sick. This is NOT acceptable. Why you ask? My bachelorette is THIS weekend! No sick bride-to-be allowed. I'm bummed its a little early, but thats my fault because I insisted that my bachelorette be the same night as Andrew's bachelor party. It should be tons of fun... its being held in Guelph (my univesity town) and I can hardly friggin wait! More booze this weekend, but.. you know what? I've come to the conclusion, you only get married once! :)

4. Today is supposed to be my dress fitting day. I'm not really feeling 'into' it right now... so I'm going to cancel it and make it later in the month. Yah... I'm in denial.

5. Thanks for your lovely comments on my pictures. Despite feeling like a complete whale most of the days... I really did feel good that night!

Stag and Doe Pictures!

WARNING: The following pictures contain insane amounts of alcohol.

Me and my mister.

Andrew's groomsman James having a little taste of moi.

My best friend (and MOH) Amie, moi and her bf Martin


Andrew and my bro


I posted this picture because I think I look skinny.... not compared to this girl though, she weighs under 100lbs!

Deeeeeeeeeeetox

Operation detox starts today. Between stag and doe activities and being away last week my caloric intake was far too high!

I will post lots of pictures tonight at home. I had such a great time.

Glad to be home... but haven't had time to get organized yet. Will post later!

I lost...

to cheesecake, creamy soup, wine, and 2 buns.

I suck.
