Starladesiree's Journal, 05 January 2009

I was going to work out yesterday, but I was having some crazy-ass dizzy spells when I woke up. I've NEVER been dizzy like that before, it was really freaking me out. I ate and then went back to sleep for a few hours and it passed... But I didn't want to push it by going to the gym, so I skipped. I'm going tonight though. My friend isn't on board with me yet, she just moved, and still has tons of unpacking to do and hasn't found her sports bra yet, so I kinda don't blame her.

I think I really need this workout. I'm so freaking stressed out at work. I work in the "eCare" department, which is basically customer service via email. They also make us do US Mail and process orders received from the website. Today we had over 200 orders pending and tons of customer emails. It seems no matter how hard I was working, the numbers just wouldn't go down. Kinda like weight, huh? Haha.

Anyway, somehow, I won a blanket. Which is the exact same blanket I had gotten two years ago from a local baseball game that they were giving away for free. This crappy psuedo-fleece wannabe blanket. This is the company's idea of making us feel appreciated? They just gave away two freaking ski trips to the call center people! And we get hand-me-down "prizes." Bullshit. Not to mention the fact that we only get hourly wages, while the call center gets commission, and we do a TON more orders now because of the online orders. Ugh.

I don't really consider myself to be an emotional eater or anything. But right now, some junk food sounds really tempting. If not to eat... To throw in some people's faces here at work. :) But instead I shall work my ass off at the gym. Give me some damn endorphins, treadmill!

I think I'm doing well as far as the Refocus Bootcamp goes. I mean, I've had some refined carbs and sugar, but, I allow myself to have those things sometimes in my diet. If I don't treat myself once in a while - in moderation, I'll end up bingeing. If it's not a designated cheat meal though, I'm not having any, so I think I'm still going to count myself as passing on that one, as long as everyone else is okay with it. ;)

I am just majorly frustrated all around recently. Hopefully I can use it to fuel my work outs. Ugh.

That gives me an idea. If I ever decide to quit my job... I'm starting a food fight first!

Glad you're feeling better. That reward of the cheesy blanket sucks. Maybe you could mention it "nicely" to your manager that they could do better? BTW, nice pic!

eeek sounds like your job is taking a toll! i think it was smart that you didnt go to the gym after feeling dizzy. Ive tried that (dizzy spells are common with me because Im anemic) and it makes gym time SUCK. Half the time id get there and leave soon after cause im too dizzy. Its better to let your body rest every now and then

Hahaha. A food fight WOULD be the way to go out, /0. Thanks Kimbulie for the pic compliment. :) And Own.. I wonder if that's it. Last tues I had a biopsy (actually 3) on my cervix and I bled a LOT. I felt lightheaded the rest of the day. They used this paste to stop the bleeding but I wonder if maybe the bleeding started again? I dunno. I'm just glad it went away.
