In The Breakdown Lane - HASAY Update
Curious as to what HASAY is and what Casey’s club can do for you…go there.

If I am to consider my recent fitness efforts a journey of sorts, then for the last three weeks I’ve been off the shoulder with four flats and a smoking transmission, if you get too close you might even smell gasoline. My body has not seen a lick of exercise since early December. My Jillian Michaels DVD has quietly gathered dust atop my entertainment center and the only thing I ventured to shred were potatoes and cheese.
I suppose the fact that I’ve been eating like a ten-year-old hasn’t helped my cause much either. The chips, the cookies, the ice-cream, the pie, have all contributed to the discomfort I feel when I try to button my pants. I actually spent the better part of Christmas day with my jeans unfastened…fly unzipped all the way down to accomodate my expanding waist line.
Then there’s all that coughing I’ve been doing.
And all my kids that have been spewing.
How through it all I’ve just been chewing,
chewing,
chewing.
Full of excuses aren’t I? At least you got a nice little rhyme out of it.
Yet tomorrow is a new day, a new week, the real start of the new year.
I will eat like a grown up should.
I will take my vitamins.
I will embark on some form of exercise daily.
I’ve got four new tires, a sparkly new transmission, and an engine that’s revving to go.
January’s my month, I can feel it. My jeans will fit me…oh, yes. They will.
Hahhaa, potatoes and cheese. That’s pure comedy gold right there. My Shred DVD is still sitting in the bedroom DVD player, crying for attention. You’re not alone. Even though it’s the new year, it hasn’t felt like it yet (since we had a weekend to get by before it OFFICIALLY started). Tomorrow is the real start. Good luck to you. Shred some carrots.
What is this Shred thingie everyone keeps talking about? I’ll try anything once.
Though the potatoes & cheese sound more appealing.
I’m also curiuos about this Shred DVD!! You’re about the 5th person I’ve heard mention in a matter of 2 weeks! I must check it out!!
I’ve declared tomorrow my official “back on the wagon” day as well. Mondays always seem like good days to get back on track!! I’m right there with ya!
Oh, I can relate! I just started the South Beach diet after gorging my face over the holiday break. I’m on day #5 and it’s KILLING me. No carbs. No sugar. What the #$%^#???? BUT I have lost 4 lbs so far on my way to losing 8. Half way there.
What I really want is a diet with chocolate in it. LOL.
Don’t worry about being stuck in the “breakdown lane.” You’ll hop right back on that highway and drive your weight down!
Ah yes, chips and cookies…I had my share of them over the holidays too. Why the hell can’t they make that stuff taste like crap? January’s the month–you can do it!
I’ve just jumped on the HASAY bandwagon today. Here’s to fitting into the jeans!
::raises water glass in toast::
I too have been eating like a 10 year old! I just had Mac and cheese for lunch!
here’s to getting back on the wagon!
nice pants.
Ah…I am with you. I have been without a dose of caffeine for three days. My head hurts but I am hanging in there. I started a mini boot camp on Saturday. I cannot move. I am ill. BUT….I am going to get back into my jeans.
Hang in there.
I’m making first day of spring resolutions. I can’t be bothered with dieting right now. Although I SERIOUSLY need to. Good luck to us all!!!
I have every faith that you will come through and do it! Good luck and I hope we will get a photo when you fit into your skinny jeans.
You can do it! Skinny jeans are a great motivator!
PS. I also have the stupid cough. It sucks.
Your jeans will totally fit you in no time. I have faith!!! Congrats on the new tires and transmission… It’s like a brand new car!
I just joined Hasay today!!! You can do it woman!! Let’s get our arses moving and get in those jeans… Um well not together in one pair of jeans. You get in your jeans and I’ll work towards being able to shop somewhere other than big print and bright colors. ~grin~
My friend basically just told me I needed to get it together today and workout. So, I better get it together. These last few weeks were just hard. I’m there with you. Skinny jeans, here we come…

At least you have the right attitude! That should count for something. Hope everyone is feeling better.
Whoohoo! Good for you. I too have been eating like a child. As if my body can handle it. HA. I’m also motivated to wipe the dust off my exercise dvd and DO something!
Glad to hear that you’re starting to feel better…January WILL be your month! You’ll be fitting in your jeans (with the fly zipped and the button comfortably buttoned) in no time!
Whoo-hoo! We’re in this journey together. now, just tell me how to get my 2-year old to let me work-out or do the Wii fit?!
You go girl!
And I must say: the holidays are really hard not to eat all kinds of stuff. And when your children are sick, well, you need the comfort don’t you!
Good for you for climbing on the wagon again!
Guess who gave you more rewards??? Come see me!
Go, you can do it! The holidays are a hard time to lose weight for anyone.
