How has your eating gone today?


If you journal, did you journal your intake?


How is work?

You're such a nice lady to volunteer for something that most people would definitely shy away from - a prison unit. You'll be in my thoughts and prayers, Deb.

Deb, what a great eating day you're having. I didn't have cheesecake or bread at our luncheon, just salads, green beans & carrots, and Hawaiian Chicken. Of course, I was hungry 1 hour later!!!! The country club's salads were wonderful, though.

I still have to muster the energy to do my abs video & 100 crunches around 10 something p.m. I will be wiped out, I know. My workout this a.m. was a killer UB/LB weights routine with the Firm (lots of squats, lunges, etc. I think I worked every muscle in my body). BTW, Grace, I don't do the Firm cardio at all. I have weak ankles.

Well--to tell the truth I was happy my friend (the instructor) did a few weeks on her own before she brought me in.

Food has gone ok and work is challenging.I should have some good opportunities with my next flock and I need to make the most of it.

I'm excited about how my sister and I are both in a mindset to make this summer very healthy.We're really getting our walks together in and motivating each other.It really helps to have someone else to work with and encourage you.

Picked up the Kathy Smith Lift Weights to lose Weight II today.Looking forward to trying it out, hopefully tomorrow.

It helps to have your family/friends/support system to have the same mindset as you when embarking on the fitness or healthy eating thing!

I am impressed that you are doing jazzercize in the prison.

Pretty good day Thursday. My eating was ok - dinner could have had a little less fat, but throughout the day I went easy so the net fat intake was probably not bad.....at least before the Starbucks vanilla bean blended creme on the way home from work!

Workout was good - 45 min cardio, LB, abs, and even some UB work with the weight machine; no free weights, though - they really bother my right shoulder when things don't feel 100%.

Not so good on H20 - why is it so difficult to drink at least 5 glasses at work? I'm not that busy that I can't walk to the cooler. So what's the problem?

All in all, the negatives look mighty small as I write them down, so it was a good day.
