Good Morning everyone!
I had another 4 pointer yesterday (5 down, 5 togo!) Is it just me, or does this eating healthy thing get easier over time? I mean, my stomach has mostly adjusted to the lower intake.......and I've always eaten lots of fruits and veggies. The big thing for me is keeping the carbs low. I still get the munchies at night while I'm watching tv, but a big bottle of water nearby helps. I must have found a really good groove, foodwise....cuz I don't really want to eat anything else.

The exercise is another story! I need to start varying my workouts, get outside more....I've had about all I can stand of the treadmill for a while. I like it because I can do it whenever I want without figuring out what to do with the kids.......but it does get dull. Think I'm gonna go for a bike ride today.

Sunny Thought for today.......Only 3 weeks to our first ice skating party at the local rink! And this year, I SWEAR, I'm gonna go skiing for the first time in over a decade! I love to ski, but I've been scared because of the extra weight....I'm gonna be 40 pounds thinner by ski season, and I can't wait!

SWP (Super Woman Pam)--WAY TO GO on the no cake/ice cream thing!!! :dance: :cb: :strong: YOU ROCK GIRLFRIEND!

Amanda-your hair sounds really cute. Mine is almost to the middle of my back and I get the opposite advice "someone your weight/age should have short hair". I don't know, I've tried having hair barely above my shoulders and I hated it. I'm just a long hair personality, I guess.

Everyone else, stay strong today....especially if it's a makeup day for earlier in the week.

Later babes,
Julie

Oh, Faye, I'll post smiley's while you're gone...unless someone else wants to. Just let me know the dates you'll be gone. You do so much for us, it's the least I can do.

Good Morning Ladies!!! Points for yesterday all 4!! Pam i am so proud of u... U GO!!! It being Friday yesterday it was pizza night here. i only had 2 slices and NO yes i said NO beer!! YEah!!! i have also stuck to not using the bathroom downstairs. 14 steps up and down everytime i need to go is a good thing... i can already tell in my legs... I am going to the dreaded mall today... i am not a mall fan especially on the weekends... but i need to find an outfit for my friends wedding, so it has to be done. :)
My treat yesterday was i got my toes done...lol a pedicure... now my toes are all pretty... honestly theres something about having your toes painted and little flowers onthem that just makes me feel like a princess...
My sunny thoughts??.... well i won an auction for a duvet cover on ebay and it arrived yesterday. Inside the box with the duvet was a little boyds bear in a christmas stocking that says "believe" on it. Thinking it was left in there by accident i emailed the lady and told her i would be happy to send it back to her as i thought it was a mistake. She wrote back saying that she sent it to me because my brother died and she thought the word believe was a perfect place to start. It never ceases to amaze me that someone would just reach out and be so kind. It really touched my heart ...

have a wonderful day
take care of U
