All-around good day

Kept the food thing under control, worked out for more than an hour and finally changed the cat litter. (The cats say, “It’s about time!”)
I have a small case of the munchies, but I think I’ll head straight home and make myself a quesadilla on the George Foreman grill. (This would be a vast improvement […]

I’ve been slacking …

I didn’t realize I’ve skipped out on posting THREE times this week. Jeez.
I’ve been having a bit of trouble on the food front, but exercise has been stellar this week. I even went to the gym on my lunch hour Thursday because I didn’t manage to make it before work. Don’t think I’ve ever done […]

Question of the week

Roni’s question of the week is “how did you pick your goal weight?”
That’s a very good question, since I’m not sure I actually HAVE picked a goal weight yet. Don’t get me wrong: I have a number floating around in my head. It’s 160, the goal weight I picked before I started the Atkins diet […]

Good news from the scale — finally

Weigh-in was a good one this week. I lost … are you ready for this? … 4.4 pounds! Woo-hoo. (That means I lost the 4 I gained last week, plus a little more for good measure!)
I’m glad the switch from Core back to Flex was the right decision for me. I’ll keep counting Points […]

Weigh-in had better be a good one

I weigh in at noon Monday. All I can say is I’d better see some downward movement on the scale, because I had a pretty good eating week and a stellar week of activity. That’s right. I think I’ve worked out every day this week — even on Tuesday, when I was sick to my […]

Uh-oh …

I have the munchies tonight.
I’m not sure it’s totally my fault, though. I went home from work to cook myself some dinner. I decided on a ham sandwich on a 1-Point onion bagel (from Western Alternative Bagels. Those things are tasty!) and fries (a potato sliced and grilled w/ some olive oil on my George […]

Zumba!

I tried a Zumba class this morning, and it was a blast! For anyone who doesn’t know, Zumba is a Latin dance-type workout. I got to shimmy and shake, jump around and sweat — a lot. Even though I sometimes felt uncoordinated (why is it so hard to move arms and feet at the same […]

Great day all around

I didn’t just go to my first 45-minute boot camp class today, I took a 30-minute weights class and spent 30 minutes on the treadmill.
My food choices weren’t too shabby, either. Ate 32 1/4 Points, which is 4 1/4 Points over, but since my workout earned me 9 APs,  it’s a wash. I took my […]

Second straight day OP

The title of this post says it all, I think. And it’s a great accomplishment for me, I must say. I’ve been having a heck of a time lately.
Today I had 27 1/2 of my 28 Points, and worked out for an hour and 15 minutes. OK, I was only at the gym for 45 […]

An OK day

I felt awful today, so I called in sick to work. It was funny, because I made myself go to the gym (25 minutes on the treadmill) before I got my bangs trimmed … and I packed a lunch and everything, then decided I just wasn’t going to make it through the night. Took a […]
