Not as much pain as I expected

I've been told by some of my friends that day two of having your wisdom teeth out is the absolute worst because this is when the numbness stops and the pains sets in. Uh, I woke up to no pain. Win! And I don't even look that swollen or bruised.

Anywho, once I was up, I made some breakfast. I decided to finish up my eggs and had three egg whites with one whole egg.

I also made some oatmeal that I started making this week. It was pretty yummy. I think I've definitely decided I like the vanilla better.

Then I headed off to see Harry Potter 7, Part 2. I must say that though the last movie was the epitome of awesome, I left it feeling sad because there will be no more films. Oh, J.K. Rowling. You should've made the series longer!


After the movie, I came home, changed into my swimsuit, and headed over to my mom's house to lay out in/by the pool and read. On my way, I grabbed another smoothie from my favorite smoothie place and was all set for a nice afternoon by the pool rereading the first Harry Potter (the UK version) and eating my smoothie with a spoon:

After about 2 hours outside, I started getting hungry for real food, so I went inside and made some potstickers because I figured they'd be soft enough to eat.

They were pretty yummy. And so was dinner!

Sloppy Joe meat, zucchini

And Malena made the awesome Red Losteresque biscuits again tonight. They weren't as awesome as before, but they were still delicious nonetheless. I know a few of you want the recipe, but I can't give it to you because I never want to know it so I don't have the ability to make them myself. Sorries - I've gotta take the preventative measures!

I ate 3 of these...whoops. They were so easy to eat though!

After dinner, my mom, sister, and I played Skip-Bo while I munched on some watermelon.

Oh, and I won again! Woot! And after dinner, we watched IronMan 2. It was just as corny as I'd predicted, but I'm partial to explosions and poorly-written plots, so, basically, it was excellent!


After the movie, I headed back home to chat with some friends and write about my day. I also needed to lay out some of my exercise plans for next week today so I can hold myself accountable.


Last week, I mostly half-assed everything. I didn't get up in the morning at all to work out and I kinda went through the motions instead of really engaging myself. I want to blame it on hormones, but I know I could've powered through it had I really wanted to. So, tomorrow it's back to the gym!


I'm going to start with an easy day and just do some basic cardio. Monday morning I will head to the gym to do some heart rate cycling (depending on how I'm feeling teeth-wise - the motion could honestly be a bit jarring). Tuesday and Wednesday I will do a morning workout/heart rate cycling and a session with Mark. Thursday I will do a morning workout and an evening workout and Friday I will only do a morning workout. Saturday and Sunday, I'm going to be in Auburn Hills with Lisa for a wedding, so we're planning on working out, but I'm not entirely sure on the details. The point is that I'm going to get back to it. I want to be at 207 (one pound less than my lowest recorded weight) by August 20. I know I can do it!
