Elves and air chomping

Right now you are hearing a strange sound and wondering what it is, well I'll tell ya what it is...MY STOMACH GROWLING. I am so hungry I am slowly becoming evil.I'm still doing the dailyplate.com thing and two days now I have eaten more calories than I am supposed to eat. I am not overweight, I know, and I don't look like I need to diet but I feel like I need to and I am unhappy with the way I feel in my clothes. Brian is doing this with me which definitely helps, except for the fact that he seems not to get irritable when he gets hungry and I'm freaking biting his head off. Heck, I chomp the air for pete's sake.
Anyway, yesterday Braeden and I did some yoga together and that was fun. We also did some cardio. And then we went to the Y with Barb and Sammy. It was a family afternoon and they had all sorts of vendors for us parents to get some free stuff, moonbounces, balloon animals and such. We had a good time but the kids ended up tired and upset because the fire truck left before they had a chance to see it.
Barb and I sang some karaoke and then Brae ended up playing over their house for a bit. I'm not sure he will be invited back because when I walked two doors down to scoop him up he was throwing a fit because he wanted to take home Sammy's Captain America action figure. Bah. I'm sure both the kids have forgotten already, but I feel bad he behaved that way.
Gymnasts are like little elves. There is an eleven year old girl, four feet tall, who can throw her body all over the place spinning and jumping and balancing. It's just amazing. And all of these girls have an enormous amount of glitter on their eyes. If it were me it would end up in my eye balls and I'd be vaulting blindly into the air. Lol. I applaud them all. They are trying out for the summer Olympics right now at the 2008 Pacific Rim Championships airing on NBC. It is just incredible.
I can really feel the love with the "fat whale cow" tag. Hey up your fat. You and Brian might not have the same kind of metabolism. I need to eat more fat than D. does. In fact, I get great fuel from fat vs. carbs. Whereas, D is really carb man.
Listen to your body - you are not supposed to be hungry. Try some whole milk or ice cream. You'll probably feel better for it. (And lose weight easier too)
Cheers!
I would have turned my sewing machine off for some ice cream tonight!
I just hate that I'm exercising and watching my calories and getting nowhere. When I was younger I could lose 5 lbs in a week easily. Now. Two weeks and nothing. Bah.
But you know what Claudia, it really does feel good to have supporting friends so I thank you for that.
