  • Quote: I haven't been great about working out this week - but I did get all the laundry done, Xmas cards written, hostess gifts for the 3 parties we're going to this weekend bought, car serviced, groceries bought, dog groomed, and dry cleaning picked up...so that's gotta count for something, right?
    Geez--where do you find the time????? I'm off in a little bit to go to the bank to get a certified check to go and pay for the lot we're buying for my in laws RV. They are full time RVers and they spend half the year here, so we bought a lot in a resort here for them to park/live on while they are here. It's like buying a driveway with a strip of grass LOL!
  • I'm sure you will get back on track, Becky, I like SusanB's suggestion about serving sizes and stuff.

    Thanks for all the responses on what you do with cheats and stuff!! It's always nice to know people are reading/listening or whatever. Yesterday I "splurged" and it only took me to 1500 calories and a bit. I like knowing that it won't put me too far off track

    Thanks for the congrats, LwyrChick, and wow, you are busy-busy-busy!!!

    I've been walking less, and studying more, but now I can go out and do things again Also, I am listening to chistmas songs and it puts me in the mood to exercise...I haven't the foggiest as to why, oh well!
  • I'm so envious that you're done with classes, Carey. I've got another week. I haven't had a semester before where I had so many papers due at the same time.

    Susan, your idea is great. I've been so flippin' busy I'm letting a lot of details slide. Since my indulgence the other night, I've been good (mostly). And I'm still exercising. I will try to package up some snacks for tomorrow.
  • Today I basically starved (not purposely) until my boyfriend took me out for an early dinner at T.G.I.F. Friday's. I had a full rack of baby back ribs & fries. oh & the dessert which was a small chocolate cake and icecream. that's a whole days worth of calories. lol. Tommorow I will wake up at 6am and exercise before work. I think I will also throw in an abs video in there.

    Anyways, have a great weekend girls!
