I have done many diets and lost weight only to fall off the wagon one day and just figure I'll stay off until next Monday, or whatever start day I make for myself. In the end, I binge until that start day and past leading to more gained weight. So that is my MO. I am however happy to say that I recognize that as my cycle and am committed to getting right back on the wagon when I fall off and not beat myself up for it for the next week or two.
Now for my goals:
1. Walk or other cardio atleast 5 days a week
2. 5 or more servings of fruits and veggies daily
3. Drink my 8 glasses of water daily
My long term goal is to get back into my sexy jeans that looked so good right after I had my first kiddo. I'm figuring I'll need to get down to about 150.
Thanks for being so welcoming!!  |
Hey Jess, You'll be wearing those sexy jeans before you know it.....just be ready to post a picture of yourself in them.
April, that homework assignment might have to wait til tomorrow.... 
Son and DIL are in Vegas celebrating their 25th anniversary and we are babysitting their 5 dogs and 3 cats and a bird. Not conducive to a romantic evening. lol But tomorrow.... now that sounds like a 'red & black lace' night for sure! 
Cynthia, I know how close you can be to your dog, so happy you got Gumbo back. I would have been frantic if one of mine was missing. I have them chipped, is Gumbo? It's not very expensive and it would sure be safer.
I did my wogging this morning, then went shopping and parked as far as possible from the store, then I felt bad because I had to have a 'bag boy' (that's probably politically incorrect these days, sorry) come out with me to unload a 5 gal water bottle that was to heavy for me to get into the back of my car. He probably thought I was a nut. Now I've got to go get busy, making chili. I have a great recipe made with 'quorn' instead of ground beef and it has 7 different kinds of peppers and is so good! and healthy. Bye for now.
