[Please scroll down for Tackle It Tuesday]

Julie has invited to join her Race to the shower - her bridal shower is 16 weeks away. Julie´s goal is to get rid of another 15/16 pounds till then. Surely I joined the race. Today in the morning I had my weekly weigh-in day. Please give me some pats on my back: I´ve lost another lb. That´s only 6 lb to go. I´ve more than halved myself (OK: my weight) since I gave birth to Luis. Hopefully this doesn´t sound swanky, but I´m too proud not to tell you! Maybe you cn share my happiness? =)

Wanna join the race or just support? Please visit Flip This Body! And please vote for Julie at the Blogger´s Choice Award. She is nominated for Best Health Blog. I don´t mind if you vote for me, too (Best Design). You have to sign up for voting, but it´s worthy. You´ll find lots of fellow bloggers to show some love to. If you are nominated, too, please let me know so I can vote for you!

xoXOxo,

Cyber Cruise update:

The one and only Hootin´Anni took us on a fantastic trip to yesterday at her North America Surprise Tour today: Wild Wild West! We enjoyed breathtaking sightseeing, had a delicious lunch (5 once Mesquite Chicken Sandwich for me - so incredibly good, but way too much to handle for me) and I went shopping, spending my last Cyber Cash (on shoes, what else?! *LOL*).

Guess what happened when we were back on our way? We were robbed! We had to relenquish our valuables! Oh my… The (*erm* very handsome) guys stole my newly purchased eye-catching sexy Manolo Blahnik Over-The-Knee Suede Boots, the Manolo Blahnik leopard printed suede Mary Jane I was wearing today and my delicious Sandwich leftovers!

I will never forget their lucky facial expression when they slipped into my heels and escaped balancing the sandwich on their noses… so I don´t mind I have to return bare-footed (Wearing their worn-out stinky cowboy-boots? Me? No way!!!) , bankrupt and hungry. And yes, my wooden dick pipe is safe and sound… but the circumstances of hiding it will remain a well-kept secret between the little weenie and me! *LOL*


Thanks again for the great fun, Anni! =)

Thanks for stopping by,

Welcome to SPSH #50 , Saturday Photo Scavenger Hunt #13 for me, Ladies and Gentlemen!
This week´s theme is “EMPTY”.

Are you ready to face some abstract mathematics? *LOL*


[The first picture shows my huge pregnancy belly shortly before Luis was born. Having a look at the second picture you see Luis right after (about half an hour) I gave birth to him… Well, and the third picture shows my empty belly today. ]

Hop on the beach and join us!

Today´s destination: Chesapeake Beach, US - hosted by Melli

Welcome to my Thursday 13 Edition No 14

Many people, including myself truly, often lack the motivation to get off the couch. How many times have O put on my workout clothes, sat down to tie my shoes, then suddenly said to myself: “The producers of 24 are counting on me to watch!” - What to do? I just lack that extra push, not only to get me to the gym, but to push me through a challenging, productive workout. I found my motivation in music. I´ve posted some of the songs - in no particular order - and linked the titels to YouTube (Beware: a couple of them contain explicit lyrics)

13 Songs That Move Me

1.) Gnarls Barkley: Crazy
2.) The Boss Hoss: Hey Ya
3.) Dee Lite: Groove is in the Heart
4.) The White Stripes: Seven Nation Army
5.) Nelly Furtado: Maneater
6.) Will Smith: Switch
7.) Salt N´Pepper: Push It
8.) Destiny´s Child: Bootylicious
10.) Pussy Cat Dolls feat Busta Rhymes: Don´t Cha
11.) Gwen Stafani: Hollaback Girl
12.) Pink!: You And Your Hand
13.) Christina Aguilera: Dirrrty

If you like to find music that moves YOU and you are not sure which songs to use, leave a pad and pencil in the car. The next time you find yourself playing the air guitar and singing like a first round American Idol contestant, write the song down. Its probably a good song to add to your play list. Please wait till you stop driving, to write it down, you are scaring me. =)

Thanks for supporting my weight loss so generously with your comments. This week I´ll do 5 Crunches on my Exercise Ball for each comment I´ll recieve! Thanks to Caylynn for this great tip! =)
So, come on, be my drill instructor!

Happy TT,

And now…
… our moment of Homer J.:

Marge: I think you should do it, Homer, you might learn something new!
Homer: Oh, Marge, whenever I learn something new, it pushes some old stuff out. Remember that time I went to those duff brewery classes and I forgot how to drive?
