Goals for me. Southbeach phase 1
Cardio 5 days per week and weights 4 days.

You go girl! Doing the clam recipe tonite!

Hey Tasha, I'm here girl. But I'm really not sure what kind of plan to write down. I still feel bad. First thing this morning was really rough. My head feels huge and has all this pressure. I keep thinking tomorrow I will feel better but that "tomorrow" never shows up. But, since this all about maintaining, I'm pleased to announce that the scale is still reading 145 (my original goal weight). So that's a plus..

Congrats on your weight, please get better soon!

I hear ya Wonder Woman. I am not feeling all to great still. I think it is the new medication I am on. Ugh! Haven't worked out yet this week and my eating is not great.

Hope you BOTH get better soon!! Btw, I made that clam dish last nite, and yes, Tasha I added lots of pepper, but we both liked it! Thanks! Gonna make the chili, next! You guys are helping me use my domestic urges in a healthy way! Thanks!

How are you two today??

I am doing ok Kama. Thanks for asking. This week really just has been a bust as far as diet and exercise goes though. Alot of things going on and I know it isn't any excuse. I set Sunday for my day to get back to it full force. My 30th b-day is coming and I wanna look hot for it!
