    Hi all! Well my Skinny Saturday started out with Pilates this morning, then I did some cleaning. Finally I dusted off my roller blades & went down by the river for a "roll". (I live by the Mississippi so there is an awesome bike path on both sides.) However....since my feet grew & I had to get new tennis shoes this week, apparently that goes for roller blades too. I did cram my feet in them & went for about a mile & a half. Wish that they weren't so tight on my feet 'cause I could have went for quite a while! It IS just like riding a bike! :laugh: Oh well I had fun till my feet couldn't stand it any more. Guess I'll give them to my neice!

    When I came home I got to puppy sit for my parents puppy (hence the one in my pic). So Walter (the bulldog) and I just hung out and played. Is there a calorie burn for puppy playing? :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

    It wasn't quite the Skinny Saturday I had hoped for due to the rollerblades not fitting, but it went well nonetheless.

    See you all for Skinny Wednesday! :flowerforyou:

    My best friend was in from out of town Saturday and I ended up pushing my bike ride to Sunday. Not a very skinny saturday, as there was a cookout... burgers, hot dogs, drinks :tongue: I made up for it today though. Went riding with 2 friends of mine who are Ironman triathletes. They made me work for every bit of a 33 mile ride today :laugh: Lots of rolling hills and some pretty good climbing. :noway: They kicked my butt!!!:laugh: We've decided to make this a weekly ride and keep adding miles to eventually do 100m. Can't wait til I can do that!! :bigsmile:
    Have a great week, ladies!! :drinker:

    I'm tweeking mine to be a Skinny Sunday since that's the day that I have the most problems with.

    For my Sinny Sunday I went on a five -mile hike with the family and my friend and his girls. It was great! I packed a healthy picnic lunch of an apple, cranberry chicken salad, some watermelon, green tea, a few chips and some wheat rolls.

    I did splurge on a small cup of gelato. It was deelishus!

    Now I have to have my dinner.

    Next week I plan on FINALLY making it to the swing dance my hubby and I have been trying to make a go of.

    For the past three weeks we have been hiking different trails and I have seen the difference in my endurance and my asthma.

    Here's to a great weekend and looking toward another!!!

    Thanks for the 'KUDOS', Robin. :drinker: I'm not really sure what got into me today, but I just couldn't stop at 33 miles today. I went for another 23 mile ride this evening. 56 miles is a personal best for me.:bigsmile: I'll pay for that tomorrow :laugh:
    I'm calling today a super Skinny Sunday!!! :happy:
