I didn't go back to sleep after my BF went to work this morning. Instead, I did an upper body work out and did laundry. Go me!!

I did both of my workouts today, which is good. :)

Silly, but this is a big accomplishment for me.

I knew I was going out to dinner with my dad tonight, so I had a small breakfast and small lunch. By the time we had dinner, I was so hungry that I pigged out (on an egg white omelet and potatoes). I am probably over my points, but instead of getting discouraged and bingeing like I normally would, I feel fine and haven't binged!

Congrats to all you ladies who are kicking *** and taking names! Double workouts, healthy eating, self control, you are all an inspiration as I did NOT do ANYTHING good today! ugh, there's always tomorrow.

I'm rehabing a bum shoulder and it has been a looooooong road back to 100%.

Today, I did 22 bench presses :strong:

P.S: This thread is awesome! I love reading about all of our triumphs. Keep 'em comin'!

I was just sitting her watching tv, and decided to walk while I watched (1hr)

I wrote this before but it didn't post....?

I got back into a cardio workout today, after I haven't felt like doing one for the past week. I treadmill-ed it -- walking more than I wanted to, but I just don't think I'm fully back up to running-shape yet. I can never run the whole time (I have a spine injury so I have to be careful), but it felt good to work all those muscles and SWEAT!

Oh good. Last time I gave blood I got REALLY lightheaded. I hadn't thought to bring my own snack for after so I had to eat their nutter butters while lying there for like 45 min. I'm so bringing granola bars next time!

I've gotten through sorting about 1/4 of my paperwork which I've been putting off forever and a day, so today's the day I finally got around to actually starting the project. It feels really cathartic to have some of the useless stuff shredded (one big sack already!) and the paperwork I need to keep in an alphabetized folder.

I went to a milkshake and burger bar to exchange secret Santa presents with my girlies. All my friends had a milkshake, burger and French fries but I didn't give in to temptation, I got a large diet soda and about 15nachos. It could have been a whole lot worse!!!
:)

My sister cooked SO many cookies, and my favorite the peanut butter ones with the hershey kiss in the middle, and I haven't eaten any :)

iwannalose, for the record, I love peanutblossom cookies so much as well. I'm very glad none have presented themselves to me or else....well, it wouldn't be pretty.

I have successfully drank only water for 2 days and logged all my calories into sparkpeople!!! YAY Me!!

Today I had chinese takeout for dinner (not by my choice) and I ate my chicken with NO teriyaki sauce! yay for staying away from disguised sugar! AND I ate a ton of broccoli too

I'm learning some new hoop moves. And after today (if I stay on track and I WILL) I'll have made up for the 1,000 :o calorie binge I had on Monday.

I could give myself credit for hooping everyday for... at least the past month but I can't stop myself, so I don't really count it as an accomplishment. :lol:
