p90x, bathing suits & mommy bloggers

I’m giddy about:
BATHING SUITS
First of all, thanks to all you amazing people who took the time to give me your opinions on the bathing suits!
As it is right now, (husband look away!), I may just get both. That way I can try them on and really see how they fit my bod. And if they both look amazing, well….(Jimmy, look away again, please)…then maybe I can keep both.
I can’t have paparazzi photographing me in the same bathing suit twice, now can I?
It’s tough being a well known mommy blogger. (In my mind)
Which leads me to this question…why hasn’t the Today show called me yet?
As I watched this week for the first time (because my BFF Tori was hosting) and saw Al Roker and Kathy Lee Gifford make the show as awkward as possible, I found myself wondering…”Really? Don’t they know me? Don’t they know what I could add to their show? I’m not awkward. Much. And when I make an expression, people will know just what my emotion is! Imagine!
And if they don’t actually want me to help host the show, maybe they could interview me. Ask me my opinion about drinking on the mommy job. Or what I think about how insane people are to have more than one or at most two kids. Or, or, or even, I could share how to make a cute outfit for under $30. You know that is valuable information in this economy.
I wonder this, because they had yo-yo-ers on the show on Monday. Yo-yo-ers.
I rest my case.
And then the other day they had mommy bloggers on, and somehow my invite must have been lost…because I didn’t see me on there. I did however see Alice from Finslippy (whom I love!) and two other women that sat there and smiled…and I couldn’t help but think…again, Oh the things I could share. I could tell Kathy that a computer is easy to turn on, I could tell Tori that food tastes amazing…I could tell Al to stick to the weather. I have valuable information, and they just don’t know it…yet.

After I tackle momversation.com, I’ll work on Today. Stepping stones.
(That wasn’t “a giddy about”…it was just a side road I took with my thoughts. Hope you enjoyed the ride.)
I am giddy about:
P90X

I just have to share that I’m starting in on Round 2. I did the entire 90 days after I had Chloe, you know to lose the baby weight, and I loved it. I brought it. I was X’d. I was…well, if you don’t watch it, you aren’t getting those references…so I’ll move on.
Anyway, once I finished, I had this bright idea to tempt fate and see if I could go back to the days of my youth and eat carbs, fast food, chocolate cake, and loads of cereal, all without losing any benefits of my hard work.
The answer to that is, no.
As Jimmy reminded me…we aren’t in our 20’s anymore. (He also one accidentally called me big boned. But I am definitely saving that story for an entire post to itself!)
So, I have made the decision to go for another 90 days. I took my before pictures and measurements, and am embarking on the road to getting back on track.
Okay, so that last part was kind of boring, and while getting back in shape makes me giddy, writing about it and actually doing it, does not.
Sorry to have bored you. They can’t all be winners.
Tomorrow is Fashion Friday, and if Mr. Linky is working you are more than welcome to share your own fashion related posts as well.

  1. So let me make sure i understand this. You are giddy about buying a bathing suit *and* giddy about undertaking a program where the aforementioned suits will no longer fit? That seems a bit odd to me. {*grin*}

  2. i’ve never seen the today show…but i’ll tell ya what i get a kick out of kristen stewart’s kathy lee…love it! in a she’s so obnoxious and annoying this is kinda funny way…

    and lady i too am workinit back into the way of shape…i combine jillian’s killafoshilla shred, pilates, and concept two rower and together they are completely changing this never gonna be 19 again bod…but i’ve heard good things about the p90x so i may just have to look into that too…

  3. Those are great things to be giddy about. I did one P90X workout but I just couldn’t get into it. Maybe someday I’ll give it another shot! Hope you include us on your P90X journey! I’d love to learn more about the program!

  4. They should totally have you on the Today show. I would take the time to watch that.

  5. I’ve heard about mommy bloggers being interviewed on TV. Isn’t that a hoot! I think bloggers make media people a little…. nervous… We get to speak our mind without the media and *gasp* people read it! What WILl they do. Enjoyed your post!

  6. Big boned??? BIG BONED!?! Is Jimmy out of his damn mind? Does he ever want to get laid again??

    …hmph…big boned….

  7. I think the Today show is dumb for not sending you a personal invitation. You’re so much better than yo-yoers.

    I say get both suits!

    Glad you’re giddy!

  8. If I weren’t pregnant I’d be getting one of those bathing suits too! I really want to get the P90X for after I have the baby, and it appears, from several commentaries I have read on it, that it actually works. Ok, I’m sold. They should pay you a referral fee!

  9. Glad you got both suits! 🙂 They are too cute!
    I think you would be a wonderful addition to the Today show.
    The hubs is already planning to start our second round in 3 weeks. I love the results, but I am a achin’! He WEARS the P90X shirt. Yeah, that black one that says bring it on the back. Haha.

  10. This is my first visit here thanks to Mama Kat, but your post had me laughing out loud! Literally! I saw the yo-yo episode and I don’t even know you but I’d rather read your blog than listen to Kathy Lee! 🙂 Lovely post and good luck on the swimsuits.

  11. The P90X is new to me…but I need it so I’ll check it out 🙂

  12. Hmmm p90x huh? Better than the 30 day shred? Because I’m telling you, it’s kicking my butt, and I am losing inches but dang if that weight doesn’t stay right about the same….you think it’s all the extra junk I eat? Nahh I didn’t think so either!

    And I think you should have BOTH suits!

    Good thing you put direction to your follow me because now I can…follow you that is

  13. I would totally watch that crappy Today Show if you were on it. It is an excrutiating show, as of right now. I can’t watch that drivel. Kathi Lee and her faces and the “witty banter” between those two women? Ugh. Like, gag me with a spoon.

    Oh…and I added carbs back into my diet, too. 13 lbs ago. *sigh*

  14. I’ve heard good things about the PX9000 thingymebobber. My friend did it before her wedding. I’m “trying” (note the quotes to mean “not actually doing since it’s still in the wrapper”) the 30 Day Shred with Jillian Michaels. I lost all the baby weight and then some but life, per usual, got in the way. Good luck with the 9CC10,000 thingy and the new bathing suits!

  15. Ummm…if you’re fat then I’m morbidly obese. You’ve got to quit messing with my self-esteem girl.

  16. I totally think you could host the Today show…especially that 4th hour. It is currently horrendous and I just know you could do better. A LOT BETTER. If you’d like, we can start a petition.

  17. I have p90X. I’ve been doing his workouts for a while.

    Tony needs to totally lay off the plastic surgery and eat a hamburger. He looks whack!

  18. If you get on the Today show, can you PLEASE take me. I would be willing to be your personal assistant for a small fee of course.

  19. If you can score the today show, you’ll have me watching it! Can’t stand Kathy Lee!

  20. He’s the guy from Twilight of course! lol Thanks for stopping by my blog! 🙂

  21. That fact that you were not on the Today show is an OUTRAGE!!!!!
