2frus~~Good for you on joining a gym. I've thought about that so many times but the only gym that offers child care is 20 min away and they only have childcare in the evenings two days a week so it's hardly worth it. Maybe once our basement is finished I'll look into getting a home gym.

lucky~~Come for a ride on the happy bandwagon it's great and I'm enjoying it while it lasts.

Susan~~What's an ExRx???

Four of the those nasty 8 lbs are gone! Woo hoo!

I think it's www.exrx.net
I'll edit and fix that if it's not. But it's a fitness site that describes lifting moves and a bunch of stuff. Let's see if that's the right link.

SCALES! I'm STILL 168!!! That's 5lbs up from last week! I've put them in the cupboard. *mutter*

I went to see the Royal Ballet last night. Wow! It was lovely - they were all so strong and bendy! And they make it look so easy!

I'm trying to be good - I really am, but when you don't see results and you know you're going to Cornwall at the weekend - home of clotted cream and pasties, then it's hard to keep going!

Hopefully I should get to the gym at lunch, if work doesn't get in the way!

Be strong jenfrus! Think how empowered you'll feel by vanquishing those clotted creams! "Get away you other clotted creams! I have chosen just this one to nourish my fabulous musculature and the rest of you must perish!"

Oi gals! Want to burn some calories? Redecorate something! I paint for two hours, have a little something to eat (carefully planned of course), check in here and then paint some more. It's fabulous!

Susan~~Try drywalling for buring calories or is that just burning, painful muscles?? Today is the first day my arms didn't hurt when I woke up.

2frus~~So sorry your scale is being . As for the clotted cream have one and be done.


That's what I've been telling myself about all the Easter treats I have in my house. Every day I have been having one and only one peanut butter egg.(42 cals) Today will be a test, we're decorating cupcakes and tomorrow is dh's birthday. When does it end?? My goal for the weekend is to just maintain or maybe I should plan to gain a pound or two? lol Plus we're drywalling again so unless I really plan....our meals are going to be screwy.


Hope you all have a good Easter!

Drywalling is not for me! That's why I'm married to a carpenter!

I ate a whole bag of tortilla chips today!

I've got my good head on today! I'm batch baking cottage cheese pancakes!

I'm feeling positive, I made it to the gym AND double kickboxing last night!

I'm going to be very good in Cornwall, really to what my body needs. I'm also packing my running gear and will take advantage of the great beach for a lovely run

Feeling groovy

Have a lovely Easter weekend - I'll be back Monday

Where's everybody at? I know i've been MIA but I've been reading your posts...

Did a 7.25 mile run yesterday and NO easter candy. That was quite the accomplishment for me. And today I have promised myself not to even go to the store because that clearanced candy will be calling my name and I refuse to give in.
