Dancing to no reflection – Green Velvet feat. Kid Sister

Posted on by

It’s no secret I work on my personal development by seeing a counselor.  She’s pretty freaking cool except today we were talking about that blasted sea salt diet and how I signed up for a total fad diet when I didn’t need to lose weight, she goes, ”It’s sad isn’t it?  The hold narcissism has on you.”

Umm – WHAT??? then she tried to back track and be like, “Oh narcissism isn’t that bad – it’s just another way of saying vanity.”  But the damage had already been done.  She called me narcissistic!  Me?  Narcissistic?  I mean I only have a blog dedicated to my life, I participate in photo projects that include taking a picture of myself every single day for a year, and I like to dance in front of the mirror.  What’s so narcissistic about that?

;)  hahahahaha

ok ok – maybe she had a LIL bit of a point.  But only a LIL bit.  Then she goes, “I think you should put away your scale and your mirrors for a week.”  AND to add insult to the injury, she said, “Don’t worry, most people who are narcissistic just have really low self-esteems and we already knew you had a low self-esteem.”

Ohhhhhhh  kaaaaaaayyyyyyyy

Look – I was already FLOORED by her narcissistic accusation.  SHOCK!  Hello??  She wasn’t supposed to be so BLUNT!  And then she tells me to give up my scale and MIRRORS for a week??  And tells me my narcissism is a front for low self-esteem and feelings of inadequacy.  Say WHAT?  I stood up to leave (the session was over) and she added, “Oh and this includes reflections in buildings or glass – but you can look at your face in the mirror if you want.”

I walked out of her office in complete and utter disbelief.  I’m still in a little bit of disbelief.  And then on the way home when I realized how many reflections I had to STOP myself from looking into – HAHAHAHAHAHA that’s when I decided – ok – I’ll do it.  But just because I CAN – even though you all don’t believe that I can.  :)

Tonight – here’s what I’ll be dancing to – with no reflection.  My mirror is covered up.  Oh dang.  Can I really go SEVEN DAYS???

Are you for REAL?? Don’t hate Twitter but please make fun – oh and cool video and sweet pics. :)

Maybe I’m still pepped up from yesterday’s post but I’m throwing out a little sass today with a list of “Are you for real?”zz

  • I spied with my own little eyes some REALLY SMART GIRL on FB who said in a status comment “another weekend and I would totally of gone”  Totally OF gone?  Maybe she should totally OF gone to skool so she’d be heaps smart likes me is.
  • Ok next – Twitter Haters – are you for real?  I know you SAY you’re too busy to tweet and all because you like have a life and stuff and I know you’re totally saying it like you’re so super self-important and have better things to do with your time – but for real?  GET OVER YOURSELF.
  • And now – Twitter-maker-fun-of-ers?? Please DON’T stop because you provide me with LOLs.  Like this awesomeness:

  • And yeah … I should probably go to bed now so we’ll stop there.  Except you should see this pic that I got from fannypackantics.com’s post – Purple Rain who apparently got it from fivestrongs.blogspot.com
  • touristcloakAre you for real?  HAHA!  That cloak is magically terrible and terribly AWESOME!
  • Oh can’t forget to add THIS beautiful product that I discovered on “This is why you’re fat” .com.  It needs no comment:
  • food-28

Alright then – I think I can end it there … yeah …

OH WAIT!!!!  Almost forgot this gem too.  One more for your viewing pleasure – picture from gofugyourself.com

If you’re reading this – I tag you.  No take backs!  You’re TAGGED.  Because if I voluntarily agree to play games that force people into taking and posting pictures of themselves at hours in the morning when they shouldn’t even be awake then so do you.  :) Hee hee.  Ok actually YOU are probably not reading this first thing in the morning.  But I read MY tag first thing in the morning.  And see the results?  SUCK!  ah well – it is what it is:

What are the rules?  Take a pic of yourself RIGHT NOW and post it.  Hope your pic is better than mine.  :) That’s a rice-milk-rice-protein drink – NASTY!  But I drink it EVERY morning and this morning?  I weighed in at a nice and healthy 6lbs less than 2 weeks ago when I flipped out and started this dumb diet.  IT’S WORKING!!!  Hip hip hooray!

Oh and apparently it’s all a buzz on twitter that some chica who I’d never heard of was stealing people’s blog posts and pretending like they were hers.  WTF??  Can we sa “La-who-ooo-ZER.”  Which is a really lame way of saying “loser.”  DUDE MAKE YOUR OWN LIFE!

So guess what?  I decided to tell y’all that – my life is MY LIFE.  The ups, the downs, the craziness.  None of it is manufactured – I’m for real yo!    And all of those soap opera posts – TOTALLY HAPPENED.  Except I am going to admit I do TAME THEM DOWN because this is a family friendly blog.  :D Yeah – I TAME them – I don’t pad them.

K – have to go to some orientation and then talk to a teacher about an assignment.  Then I have to WORK on that assignment then go to some social media event – BUSY DAY!!

Wobbly bits, the Sydney stone and ANOTHER diet

They call it the Sydney Stone.  I call it a big sucks.  What are we talking about?  The weight people gain when moving to Sydney.  I gained it the FIRST time I moved here but then I LOST IT ALL when I went home.  But then I moved back and GUESS WHAT?  I bet you’d NEVER EVER EVER guess – btw – I’m on one today – I gained it back.

Bonnie Lad’s GF explained it well.  “Oh yeah the Sydney stone, it takes all ‘em nice firm bits, tha’ones that were so grand ‘n like, yeah it just turns em into wobbly bits.”

Wobbly bits.

I don’t want any wobbly bits.  No, no.  MY BITS – I’d much prefer to keep ‘em grand ‘n like – thank you.  So what’s the next latest and greatest obsession/fad/phase that I’m signing up for?  [shake my head in slight dismay]  I don’t know.  But she (the naturalist) said take this, this, this, this, this, this, this, AND add this, this, this, this to your diet and then also change up your workout routine.  Wow – ok so that’s a lot of stuff.

But fine.  Whatever.  I’ll do it.

BUT THEN she said, “Oh and no sugar, honey, or really any fruit for 14 days. ”

WHAT?

Look – I was willing to take this, this, this, this, this, this and ALL OF THAT OTHER STUFF and I was willing to ADD this, this, this and ALL OF THAT OTHER STUFF and I was even willing to shake up my exercise plan.  But please tell me that she did NOT just say no sugar, honey or fruit for 14 days.

But she did.

And I said, “Ok.”

But I only said ok because this is a “jump start” plan – I’ll be back to NORMAL stuff in 2 weeks (or so she says I will be.)  So what’s the magical new plan?  I’ll tell you:

All Day:  2 liters of water

Breakfast – 400 mg Hydroxycitric acid (pill A,) 500 mg Boulardii (pill B,) 8 oz. Rice Protein Drink made with Rice milk, 1 tsp Psyllium Husks and if I want I may also have gluten-free muesli.

Low Tea – 10-12 almonds

Lunch: Pill A, 1 Glucose Manager (Pill C,) 2 slices multi-grain gluten-free bread, 95 g of Tuna and some veggies if I want.   Or salad may be substituted for the bread.

High Tea – 10-12 almonds

Dinner: Pill A, Pill B, Pill C, some type of meat (making sure to have red meat 2x per week,) broccoli or zucchini, and either a sweet potato or brown rice.

Nightcap – Licorice Legs Tea

I’m just so-gee-whiz-thrilled – or something like that.   No – to be honest – it’s not really all that bad.  Is it?  It will just take a certain degree of discipline and determination (things I have.)  She thinks I should be able to lose 3-5 kilos in 2 weeks with this.  Fingers crossed!!  I’ll let you know how it goes.  :)
