Scuttle, you are too funny!!! At least you didn't have a major binge.

Well, bad news here. Wednesday morning I was having a great workout at the gym -- ran 2 1/2 miles and was half way thru my weights when I hurt my back doing squats. I'm going to the chiropracter today to hopefully get some relief. I spent all day Wednesday laying down with the ice pack / heat pad. Not fun!!!! I made it to work today but for only a half day.

Looks like I won't be the exercise queen for awhile. Someone else will have to fill my shoes.

Liz

Scuttle - hey, as long as you keep the candy cravings in control as you are, I think it's a good thing to keep having them. Denial can cause lots of problems, you know??

Liz - ouch! So sorry about your back. Hope it's better soon. ~ Sorry I won't be able to takeover your crown as the exercise queen!
