Day 1,051 - Funky Monday.

So, closing ceremonies.  I think I watched about 10 minutes of it.

Which was about 8 minutes more than I watched of the actual Olympics.

Eric Idle has some skinny, twig-like legs, doesn't he?  I think that just makes him even funnier, in my opinion. Absolutely hysterical.  "Bright Side of Life" from Life of Brian is one of my favorite movie songs ever.

Heard Oasis was part of the closing act, didn't see them, but heard that they were just kind of meh.  Apparently, all that smoking & drinking has caught up with Liam's vocal chords.  Wonderwall is one of my favorite songs, and it's the reason why I discovered Oasis to begin with.  Those Gallagher brothers - they amuse me so!

Who the hell is Jessi J? Not that it really matters, she aint Freddie Mercury, that's for damn sure.  They should've just played footage from one of Queen's Wembley shows.  That would've been much better, I think.

One other thing - a 7 point win for Team USA over Spain?  That's actually really disappointing.  I mean, it goes without saying that anything less than a gold medal would've been a complete disaster, but a 7 point margin?  The Dream Team averaged something like 30+ wins.

P.S.  That sound you hear is the entire 92 Dream Team saying, "7 points, really?"

And that's pretty much all that I watched of the ceremonies.  Kinda wished I had cared a little more.

Anywho, on to me.  (That was a quick turnaround.)

I've been feeling like I'm in a funk of some kind.  I can't really explain it because I don't understand it myself.  I'm trying to snap out of it by focusing on positive stuff.  That's hard though.  Especially because when I think of how much I've lost so far, I immediately think of the consequences visible on my body.  Like the loose sagging skin on my midsection and inner thighs.  My loose skin is the bane of my existence. It looks awful.  So awful, I hate it.  Anyone would.  Especially men.  Sigh.  Ok, done with that now.

I decided to shake up my workout today.  I started on the inclined treadmill walking at high speed for 15 minutes.  Then I decided to go at an all out run for another 15 minutes.  Which of course sent the blood pouring and my heart rate sky high. I also did a Firm DVD that I hadn't done in forever - Aerobic Body Shaping with Allie del Rio.  I burned 674 calories.

Lots of sweat going on here.  And the saga of the crazy cat lady hair totally continues.  :-)

Food intake was spot on today.  Tracked everything, stayed within my points, and got in all the requirements.

I am making a conscious effort to get bed at a decent time, which I have not been doing lately.   So I am off to get some shut eye.

Good choices!
