True Confessions!

December 14th, 2009 | Comments | Posted in Featured, Melissa, True Confessions | by Lissa

It’s Monday! You know what that means! Confession time! With the holidays quickly approaching, I am sure we all have plenty to get off our chests. Did you inhale a few spoonfuls of cookie dough while you were baking with the kids? Accidentally consume the chocolate Santa you had bought to put in your husband’s stocking? Did your exercise consist of Christmas shopping and that only?

Go to your blog, write your confessional post, and come back to Shrinking Jeans and leave your permalink down below. Then, get your butt back on track.

True Confessions of Melissa:

*I decided (while suffering from insomnia) that I will quit drinking coffee. I LOVE MY COFFEE. Am I insane? I woke up Saturday morning and didn’t make my morning brew. I had a headache by 11. It was pretty mild and I thought, “Maybe this won’t be so bad!” So NOT the case. By about 8 that night, I had a roaring headache that continued all night.

Next morning, still there, only not too bad again. I thought it was almost over. WRONG. Raged again. But, I am happy to report that since I woke up this morning, I am mostly headache free! WOOT!

*Since my husband went back to work on Wednesday, I have been failing miserably at exercising. Kirsten? Jen? Where are you? I need you to execute your ass-chewing skills, please.

*Chocolate. Enough said.

    I don't have time for a post tonight, but here's my confession....rum cake, good, but so bad. Good thing I only get it once a year!

  • I will be riding your ass every single day to make sure you workout! Can you do the same for me.

    Get rid of the chocolate. NOW!
  • Lissa - PUT DOWN THE CHOCOLATE!! GET THAT CHOCOLATE OUT OF THE HOUSE!! If you are going to give up coffee (of course I still do not understand this but hey to each their own) you can not gain 5 pounds doing it!! If you have to much you better grab an apple!! are you going all the way caffeine free?? maybe a nice cup of green tea in the early afternoon? or if you are saying no to caffeine completely then maybe a cup of sugar free hot chocolate!! There ya go - chocolate that takes a while to ingest and it is only 1 point!!

    you can do this hooker!
  • ps. Oh now! Withdrawal! I can't bring myself to do it. meantime I have an IV set up with coffee in the bag. Right now.

    Bari, I couldn't comment on your blog, but I LOVE puppy chow. I haven't made it this year but last year, I made EIGHT batches (you know, as "gifts" for others, no really).
  • Uhm, hooker? Get thee ass to the gym!! I'd threaten that I'd come up to ND and kick your ass in person, but you might see how serious I am about that threat. (Not that I wouldn't love to meet you, but I don't really want to go to ND!) So, now that you are caffeine and headache-free - GO.TO.THE.GYM.NOW!!!

    I tried cutting out caffeine, but failed miserably. Good luck with that!

    melissa - have you considered gradually breaking yourself from coffee? like switching to decaf (which still has some caffeine) until you're not quite so miserable?
  • allysonlyon
    Hooker get your ass to the gym. You'll feel better afterwords.
  • That's what I'm talking about! YES! ;p

    Can I do my workout at home? Puh-leaze? It is super-fricking cold outside.
  • allysonlyon
    I say yes you can do it at home, but you have to do double, just because. ;)
  • Tobey13
    Cold? OMG, its gross here! -33 Celsius, with the windchill and supposed to get colder. Gross I say. Have my last Zumba class tonight and don't wanna go 'cause of the cold!
  • I hear ya! It's -20 F with the windchill here. So miserable, I know! I.hate.it.
  • BrookeF
    you yankees scare me!!!

    <---plans on running outside today since it'll be almost 60 degrees.
