OK - I want to hear what everyone did for themselves today (please).
I took the pups for a nice walk AND DH went with us. I've cooked my chicken breasts for lunches this week and there is a big pot of southwestern vegetable soup in the fridge!
I took a long nap in the middle of the day.I stayed in my gown till almost 4pm. It was nice.
I am having a hard time following the challenges right now due to life being CRAZY!! I am doing good with my weight..its inching down.
Well my moment for myself...I don't know if I did anything for myself yesterday. I did watch a horror movie, that was fun.
I'm not stepping on the scale until next sunday...will see how my weight is. Still on TOM, last day before my "buffer" day I believe so hopefully my weight will go down. I HOPE!
Sunday - something nice for ME
Monday - kick it up a notch
Tuesday - weigh, measure and record every bite
Wednesday - try something new - either food wise like a recipe, exercise based or some different behavior (example - put your fork down between each bite)
Thursday - get all fruits/veggies/water in!
Friday - report on an NSV or get "back to basics" with the health side of this - it's always good to make a list of all the things you can do now that you couldn't before as well as a list of things you look forward to doing
Saturday - call your own challenge - whatever is difficult for you (Saturday my personal challenge will be no eating out)
Tomorrow I am totally doing something nice for myself. I've worked hard with the exercise thing the past two weeks. I'm really excited as even though sometimes I can't go as far as I like, I'm still doing it. Tomorrow I do TaeBo, so I'm excited about that.
My weight is leveling off now, so yay! I'm in the 265 bracket now. I need to work on balancing my meals, so that comes next week.
Getting there! I really fluctuate a lot though...woosh.

Well I kicked it up today with oodles of yawning while I attempted to workout...lol. I did kick a bit higher and I did put more ooomph in my punches...I even almost punched my eye out.. hahahahaha. So close...
As usual, I weighed, recorded, and measured every bite yesterday.
I start my Internship today, and it's in an office. When I worked in an office before, I tended to oversnack. So to try something NEW, I'm going to make a conscious effort not to mindlessly snack.
Kayley - don't take the first bite! That's how I handle it.
This challenge was started if you remember to run parallel to a challenge my gymmate Amanda is doing with Dr Oz. He was here to work with Amanda again last weekend and the show will air I think November 12. I'm so pleased to report she has lost 26 pounds and gaining confidence. She actually is going to meet me tonight and walk with my to the gym instead of driving - how's that for a behavior change for her. Yes - I'm proud!
Im still eating to fast..I tried to put my fork down between bites and its hard..so I will try that again today. Everyone should try it at some point.I also dont drink enough while eating..so I will try and drink 16 ounces before I start eating and then a sip every few bites.
I'm doing something nice for myself today. No guilt, it is November 1st and I'm going to make myself do my exercise today WOOOO! A new day, a new month...not going to waste it.
