tiffers: random ramble-y water video.

i forgot to upload this one to youtube, then when i remembered it wasn't really relevant anymore, but here ya go, if your interested.

tiffers: angry weigh-in vlog!

a note about my lisp:  i actually think it's my extra tooth that makes me sound that way!  and yes, you can see my extra tooth if you look closely!  it's a baby tooth that i never lost and another tooth grew in front of it. . .so i have a double tooth!

and now that i watch this video i wish i would have put some make-up on!  i'm pretty proud of my complexion at the moment though and i'm pretty sure it looks better because of the better foods i've been eating, so yay better foods!

love, tiffers.

tiffers: angry weigh-in day.

so, before i tell you about my horrible weigh-in, look at my post treadmill face:

even sweaty and gross, i'm always proud of my post-treadmill face.

i weighed in heavy today.  our scale is saying between 271 and 272.

first, let me explain my horrible rage.  i will say first off, i am not BLAMING the scale.  if i weigh in heavy, that's on me.  but hear me out:

i know i shouldn't do it, but i weigh myself almost every day, just to see where i stand.  it's a little compulsive, i know, and i'm trying to stop, but i step on that scale just about every time i see it.  and it's in my closet, so i see it a lot.

all week i've been weighing between 269 and 271.  that's a big gap for a scale, and i don't think i weigh that much more or less on a given day.  so i know there is a scale issue here.  when chris weighed me today, it was 272, which is pretty far off from the numbers i've been getting.  chris's numbers i would say seemed alright, but then again, chris only weighs in once a week so i only had one number to compare it to, and he maintained this week.

i don't know what i'm doing wrong.  i felt like i'd had a great week, but then again i had an awful week before that so maybe it just caught up to me.  but i've been tracking EVERYTHING and been keeping pretty busy even on days i didn't get on the treadmill.

i need to do something different.  i try new things every week to see if something does better or worse.  even every i change up my routine a little bit.

even through the horrible weigh-in i actually feel pretty awesome right now.  i had a bagel and some fruit for breakfast, got my treadmill clothes on and started walking before i did anything else.  like, i feel really pumped up right now, and it's nice!  instead of cleaning and procrastinating about getting on the dreadmill (and yes, that is supposed to day DREADmill) all day, i got on it for twenty minutes at a nice incline-power-walk sort of thing and i feel great.  i also had chris set up my playstation in the living room so that i can play some dance dance revolution later.

on a DDR sidenote, it's an awesome way to work out.  my favorite thing about it is if you set it to workout mode, you can set your desired time (i do mine for thirty minutes) and it deducts the time of the song you play from the total time.  so it's not like a running clock or anything, if i need a drink or need to pee or have a horrible fake-dancing cramp i can stop and not worry about inaccurate times.  it's hard to stop on a treadmill for a potty break.  D:

anyway, i have an appointment at the health department tomorrow.  i'm excited for an accurate measurement of my weight, no matter what the number is.  at least if i have a starting point i can figure out what's up with this scale of mine.

hoping for a better week!

love, tiffers.

episode one and a deleted scene.

episode one is a silly introduction.  it's the first time the two of us were in front of a webcam and we had no idea what we needed to say, so we just started talking!

it ran really long, so we tried to redo it in a more concise sort of way.  sadly, we decided this after we'd already filmed like, 4 other videos.

so yes.  that's what happened.

test blog!

whoop whoop whoop test blog blah blah blah blah.

the donut i've been using on the layout.  scrumptious!
