Ramble...

So, I finally figured out what I'd tagged my macros/food diary posts on here (tags were: MFP - MYFITNESSPAL) from way back when I was losing weight pretty quickly to try and see just what I was doing then that I'm not doing now.

Basically, I was MOVING a TON more, like 12-15k steps a day up to 20k, usually walking a 5k in the morning and doing Jazzercise or hot yoga or strength training in the evening most days. OR at the farm, working my ass off. And I was eating less on average, which makes sense, cos the more I do, the less hungry I am generally.

Of course, I haven't been getting steps in hardly at all cos of my toe, and usually I just have one workout a day, and they aren't nearly as intense or long as what I had been doing then.

So… I guess I need to lower my expectations on the rate of weight loss, or figure out more to do (given the toe issue) and less to eat. I hope to FUCK that my toe is well enough tomorrow for that doctor to treat the plantar wart and see if clearing that up will help keep this sore from developing when I walk.

I've been doing my best to not walk much trying to get this toe so the Dr will treat the plantar wart tomorrow when I go, but maybe after that I can do the beach walks again on the sand, cos that didn't seem to harm it before. The double edged sword is, I want to lose more weight to see if that will take pressure off the toe when I walk and thus help the problem, but I can't do all the things I need to lose the weight cos of the toe! argh!

Anyway … just rambling, honestly. It seems like I need to get into a habit of hitting the boxing thing every day for at least 15 minutes. It doesn't take that long, and does get my HR up some and is easy on the foot, and/or do more strength training. I just need to make it a priority and get some good strong music to go with it.

I just don't want to get discouraged and give up . I have to keep reminding myself that even slow progress is progress AND it's more about health -- keeping blood sugar down -- is the priority.

Here's how it looks today...

if a character means enough to me i will truly never stop thinking about them. i just retire them into a little back room in my brain and periodically bring them out to stare at them under a little light

I think that I've only drawn Ford like. 3 times in my entire life. so here's some Fordsy (and some Fiddsy. and a Bill I guess)

[image description: a page of drawings of ford, mcgucket, and bill cipher from gravity falls. near the top are two portraits of ford, one in the gravity falls style and the other in a more realistic style. next to that is a simple doodle of ford and mcgucket smiling and embracing with the caption "old man yaoi!" beneath them. in the bottom left is a simple drawing of a younger ford, and next to that is a drawing of bill with a speech bubble saying "i'm here too! also i'm hatless for spacing reasons". next to that is bill's hat, as well as mcgucket in an orange and brown 70s-style outfit and a braided beard, and he is sitting on the ground, lost in thought. end id]

y'know, the different factions of spn fandom on tumblr do fundamentally and vehemently disagree with each other about a lot of things, and many of the factions actively hate one another, but i just want to say for the record that i appreciate the fact that this site is not overrun with painfully hetero facebook fans. i just saw someone over there saying with their whole chest that they fully expected the finale to have dean meeting jo harvelle in heaven and them getting afterlife married, and someone else angrily responded that this was obviously never going to happen because clearly dean was still in love with lisa braeden who would therefore be his finale bride (i guess this person expected her to die in the finale somehow?), and then someone ELSE responded that they wouldn't want to see either of those things happen because they like to pretend dean is their boyfriend and it would feel like cheating(!!!!) if he ended up with one of them and they'd never be able to fantasize about him anymore. and all of these comments had over a dozen people agreeing with them.

I really feel like one of the best details in “A Scandal in Bohemia” that I never see people fixate on enough is that the story starts with Watson stopping in to see Holmes at Baker Street on a complete whim, because he happens to see that he’s home (and Watson is now married and living elsewhere). Like he doesn’t send word first, he’s not invited, he just shows up and surprises Holmes. Which is not that weird but then Holmes is like “oh good, I’ve got a case anyway, you might as well hang out!” which just makes it funnier when the King shows up and is like “I’d really rather speak to you alone, actually” and Watson tries to leave and Holmes is just like “anything you can say to me, you can say to my best friend John Watson, and if you ask him to leave, I would consider it a grave insult, you would be my enemy and I will not help you ever!!” And the king is like “…ok” and just moves on.

like, that is crazy behavior. Holmes is talking about how there’s probably lots of money in this case, and then almost turns away the client for…not knowing who the fuck Watson is?? He’s not even supposed to be there?? He just came to say hi?? “It is both or none”… girl, GET UP.
