I am cheerful I was out of town and have NO IDEA what went on while I was gone.... nor do I want to. LOL
Leanne... CONGRATULATIONS on your first
"4 NICE".
That was a great plan to go fill up the house with healthy legal snacks.
Those darn exercise "naughtey's" are kicking my butt.
I made a
commitment to all of you in the Christmas Challenge Thread to PROMISE to earn all 4 Monday.
In fact ... that can be my Monday Motivation.
I am going to exercise !!! If I can ... anyone can.
I am soooooo bad at that one... and it is one of the most important for me.
I too am having car problems. I took in for a quick look by a mechanic and he doesn't know how much it will cost or how long to fix. Geeze... that helps a lot.
What I heard was.... "It will take forever and cost you an arm and a leg"
BarbPA... I am going to be baking several pans of lasgana next weekend. I am having a housefull of company here for my sister's birthday. Lasagna is always good for large groups. If I do say so myself... I like my lasagna.
I am making a FULL FAT FULL FLAVOR for some... and a HEALTHY ALTERNATIVE for the rest of us. LOL Looks like I will be earning my bonus for the week by modifying a recipe.
Skittles... WOW !!! Riding 5.5 miles. Way to go !!!!
You are going to be soooo happy when you unpack all of those clothes next summer and they are TOO BIG !!!
Well they will be as long as you don't get too many sore throats this winter.
LOL
I got a huge smile on my face while reading about your cure.
What is so funny is... I could relate.
LOL
JOYce ... your description of driving home on fresh snow sounded soooo BEAUTIFUL !!
Last year when we had our first snow before Christmas (unusual for OKLA) I got in my car and drove around looking at house lights and decorations and it was just so awesome. There is nothing prettier than a snow covered field with the sun glistening on the snow.
Kat... Your description of today sounded like a Rockwell painting. Ahhh !!
You ask what our favorite Christmas song is... well ... tonight it sounds like the
least favorite song is....
"He's making a list... checking it twice... gonna find out ... who's naughty and nice "
OKAY ladies... It is time to GET SERIOUS ABOUT OUR WEIGHT LOSS !!! COMMITMENT AND DISCIPLINE !!
I am probably the worst on the challenge so far.
BUT THAT IS CHANGING AS OF TODAY !!!
We CAN do this. We CAN drink water with our meals. We CAN follow our healthy food plans. We CAN !!! We CAN !!! We CAN !!!
ATTITUDE IS EVERYTHING !!!
THINK POSITIVE !!!! TALK POSITIVE !!! DO POSITIVE !!!
CD.. a short brisk walk can do wonders for your alertness while studying.
Barb... follow Leanne to the fruit section and find you some healthy snacks.
Skittles... buy some sugar free throat lozenges.
Joyce... you and Kat keep singing joyfully because you can't eat and sing at the same time.
That's a good idea for all of us. Everytime we want to eat off program...
start singing !!!
Joy to the World.... I Wish You a Merry Christmas.... Jingle Bells... whatever.
Make a commitment to yourself... or better yet... to your fellow challengers in here ...
to sing a Christmas song before you can cheat. Sing it
JOYFULLY !!! Sing it with a smile.
Anyone willing to sing along with me ????
"Joy ... to the world....
All... the boys and girls...."
OOPPSS ... that's not a Christmas song.
Let's try again...
" Jingle Bells... Jingle Bells ... Jingle all the way ....."
