Hi gals-hope you're all doing well today. I'm still cleaning my office getting it ready for lessons which start on Monday. I hate cleaning, but at least its keeping me out of the kitchen. I had a nice leisurely run this morning. I'm learning to really enjoy my slow runs. Its nice because I can zone out to my music instead of focusing on breathing like I do on my faster days.
Rosario-Hope your aha moment lasts! Enjoy that healthy food!
La3y-A camper of your very own! I still tent camp, but I'm starting to see the appeal of a camper after 3 days of rain on our last trip! Hope you're on plan today.
Morrin ladies!
I did not get to walk again last night....grrrrrr.....but I had no control over it. My son cut his foot on some glass and had to take him to the ER. So I will put it on todays plan....My eating will be alot better today I have all the good healthy snacks and I am ready for the day......I hope all of you are good!
Hey everyone, hope your day is off to a wonderful start. I'm babysitting today so we're watching educational programs. Its amazing what will entertain 3 and 5 year olds.
I'm working out a plan to help me stay good tonight while I attend a fundraiser at a bar. I'm trying to figure out what/when to eat before we go and also talk myself out of the usual beer. Anyone got any tips?
La3y-Hope your son is feeling ok today. What a terrible evening you must have had. SO...hopefully you can get that walk in today.
Shari-How are you doing? You seem a little overwhelmed with time passing so quickly. Did you just go back to school? That's always hard to get a handle on a new routine.
Rosario-How are you doing? Hope you're getting in your tennis and eating well. When do you leave for your trip?
Wendy-How is school? Hope you get used to your new schedule quickly. Isn't it weird to be away from Ryan for so much of the day?
Brandy he was a true boy....We had to pick him up and take him in last night and on the way out he was running and makeing car sounds....So yes he is better today.
I will get my walk in tonight....I am thinking on what to have for supper...I want to plan it now that way I can be on a roll when I get home and get it all done fast.
Wendy--I can't wait to go back to school. I am trying to save up because even communtiy colleges here in GA cost an arm and a leg. I am going to try for financial aide, but I'm thinking I make too much. This may sound sick...but I love homework!!!!
La3Y---how's your lil boy holding up??
Brandy---I leave for LA next thursday and I won't be back until the following Thursday...I can't wait. I remember when I used to babysit my nephew, Jojo, and he could sit watching the same Elmo dvd forever. How'd you do at the fundraiser???
Well, my aha! moment was only a brief one. So I guess I can't call it that anymore. I am still trying to eat right, though. The thing that is killing me is the snacking at home. I do awesome at work, but when I get home, I just start eating like I have never eaten before. I do have to admit that it has gotten way better (especially since we don't have any american cheese slices....mmm sandwhiches.) But I still need to do better. And forget about excercise....I just ahven't been able to bring myself to do it. Although , I have found a way that makes it more bearable. I workout with my laptop while watching regular tv. that way I don't get so bored working out.
So the plan for this weekend is to eat right, work out and clean my house. Anybody else got exciting plans for the weekend ???
I did horrible at eating yesterday>I made a cake and brownies for the hubby and kids.....I endded up having a piece of cake and 2 brownies.
Well this weekend I think I will be taking the kids to the exhibition for a day....there goes the eating again ..I see a gain coming this week.
Oh there is a chance I may not be able to do the surrogacy.I have had a weight change of over 20 pounds. I won't know for sure until I talk to the doctors.
Rosario-- I wish I lived close to you so I could give u the boot int he but u need lol. Do u have someone u could work out with to do this for u.
Oh Rosario....I am raising a gentleman.....My son.."Mama let me open your car door for you" he is seven by the way. Me and my girl mouths drop open. When we got home he opened both of our doors......Now I tell you It made me feel so good......
Hi gals-I made it through last night very well for sticking to my plan. I ate 1/2 my sandwich and a cup of soup and didn't drink any fun things. We didn't make very much at the fundraiser, but we all had fun. I am so proud of myself for sticking to a plan last night. Usually I cant handle social situations without indulging in something.
Wendy-I think I'd freak out more with algebra than biology!
La3y-Way to go on raising a gentleman. My hubby ALWAYS opens doors for me and it is very nice
Jen-I hope things work out for you when you see your dr.
Shari-Wish I could say that time slows down, but each year seems to fly by a little quicker.
Well, I'm trying a detox for today and the weekend. I've been having some problems and hoping this will help clear my lymph system out. I'm on protein shakes for today until a big salad for dinner. Tomorrow and Sunday I'm eating a serving of fruit every 2 hours and having salad with a protein drink for dinner. SO, if I stick with it my weigh in should be a good one, but more importantly I should be feeling a little better.
canadianmom-i hop eeverything works out for you with the surrogacy (is that even a word) that's the most awesomest thing you can do for someone. you would think my bf would be the one putting me in my place regarding excercise, but he is just as lazy as me (but he looks fit as heck! that lucky sob!) it would be nice to have someone here...but I know I can do it on my own. And I will!!!
I just discovered table tennis is a sport and you can burn some calories playing it (according to fit day 1 hour burns 236 cals!) so I will be doing that a lot this weekend. my bf bought a table last weekend and I didn't realize there are fitness benefits, so I will definitely be using it more to my advantage (although we have it at his parent's house...so i don't really know if I'll always be up to going over there)...oh well, it's a start.
