I know! Not weight loss related but I can’t help myself!  I played hooky from exercise yesterday and took DD to the mall/movies, she has to go back to school today and I wanted her to have a good last day of summer…I think we accomplished it…we had such a good time.  You know, DD [...]

Just been uber busy!!! :)  Things have been so sooo busy, drs appts…stupid bank issues…you name it!  Oh, and good things too…Saturday was a lovely day spent with DH & DD…  And yes…I had a lovely dinner out…and I did have my favorite dessert…it didn’t make me crabby or testy this time but I was [...]

Today was better but I think I am still dealing with the effects of yesterday.  I went running around with my DH today for some things and my eating schedule was thrown off by just a bit…I had lunch a little early…I thought I did good choices but when I got home this afternoon I [...]

Okay, got a liiitttle too cocky with the program yesterday…just when you start thinking…”Oh yeah, I got this shit down…”  That’s when it happens!!!  Okay..I believe the wobble started two days ago…when I had a piece of natural juice apple pie…yeah…that went fine…so what do I do?  I had a supermarket french bread type pizza [...]

So, I am sitting here covered in sweat on a beautiful Sunday morning in paradise…the breeze is floating over me like cool fingers and I can feel my muscles warm, liquid, and relaxed after my 40 mins on the elliptical.  Almost nothing feels this good to me…I feel high…I feel calm…I feel ecstatic about my [...]

I got to get on the elliptical this morning!!!  Woo hoo!  I had to keep the resistance low, and my speed lower than usual but I got in 30 minutes!  My ankle is doing better than expected and I am very grateful!  Yesterday was extraordinarily busy yesterday and I suffered no ill effects of it [...]

Wow, the last few days have been a blur, this week has been a flurry of appts…chores…errands and driving.  My ankle has been steadily improving…I was able to attend Yoga (with modified poses or sometimes just standing in mountain pose while the class worked) and pilates (which I could do almost everything…plank was the only [...]

I swear! I had every intention of going to Pilates class today! I did! But it is also payday and that carries about a million little details that need to be addressed…ugh…bills…just hate them… So, here I am, with absolutely no way to make it to Pilates… Ah well, sometimes [...]

Yup, there is a definite learning curve involved with my new program… I was working under the assumption that by cutting my sugar and only doing three meals I would be able to drop weight quickly!  Well,  I went up a hair…and am no inching back down but I have realized that I do need [...]

Okay, feeling a little less enthusiastic than usual this morning…tiny bit tired and hot I think… Also…no doubt the new eating is the way to go for me but I still have a learning curve to get down because I seem to be picking up weight…ugh…which disappoints me. I think that may be a partial [...]
