Non-Scale Fail

So, we're always talking about our NSV's and our scale readings etc....but we all know that deep down, maybe not so deep actually, we have had sheer fails, BUT, they don't fail to be hilarious.

Here is my NSF for today. I'm clearly starting November off right!

This morning, I was eyeing up my favourite pair of pants. I was staring at them blankly, wondering if they'd fit. I figured, probably not, but what the heck, I was feeling skinny this morning. So, I grab up those bad boys & I march my *kitten* into the bathroom. I threw on spanx (because let's be real, these pants are painted on, on a good day, so the last thing I need are ripples) and I started to pull them up one leg. I started to worry around mid-thigh, but kept pulling. I eventually got them up and did the classic, lean back, suck in and pull up HARD to get them in place, before buttoning.....at which point, I completely wrenched my back.

I looked at myself in the mirror, laughing in pain & thought.........yeah, not today Ang.

I tell you though, those pants will fit......next week. I will make them. Hopefully this time with a little less back pain

LOVE your attitude and way of thinking and this topic!

Here's mine:

Yesterday, I'm hustling on my treadmill and stationary bike (doing as much as I could one one and switching to another), listening to some serious jamming music and getting more and more pumped up listening. SWEATING and I was so hyped, I attempted (miserably) to start "trying" to jog to the beat of one of the songs. Wow, EPIC MASSIVE failure. I so couldn't do it for more than a few seconds and I'm sure I looked like a complete dork PLUS I felt like my heart was about to bust outta my chest
:laugh: :sad: :brokenheart: :laugh:

Yep, it was a major NSF...but one day I will be able to do it--just not now:ohwell:

Another fail of mine, which I absolutely love.

I do all of my workouts on a laminate floor in my basement, so during yoga & such, I use a mat.

The other night I was working on my abs and was laying on my floor, on my back. The routine called for "clock work" where you lay flat, put your feet up outstretched & move them around clockwise & counterclockwise. The entire time, the trainer (on the DVD) is saying "keep your lower back on the mat, don't pull too far off the mat" .........okay, okay.

I have a serious arch in my back, and I realized this even more so during this exercise. EVERY time I swung my legs around, even at a point where my back should STILL be making contact with the mat (it wasn't), it would lift up & upon coming back to meet the mat......my sweaty back & the mat itself, would FART.

It was like, the equivalent to an excersise queef.

Thank god I work out alone......because it was even distracting me.

Hahaha omg, this made me LOL, which is super awkward with the absolute silence in my office today. I have done this!!

Oh I have one for ya... I sometimes wear those cami's under my clothes that help smooth the ripples. They are, of course, rather snug - kinda like a sausage if you know what I mean. Well, the front part of the top had sunk below my shirtline so I went to pull it up a smidge and in the effort to manhandle it up - my hand slipped and I kinda punched myself in the mouth.

This of course happened last nite while I was putting on "the costume" hehe... CLASSY!
