    Happy New Year! Wishing you all a healthy 2022!

    I like to exercise on New Years Day...set the stage for hopefully good habits throughout the test. Yucky and rainy here today....but didn't give into the excuses in my head. I just got wet!

    Happy New Year. I was at PF at 7:00 this morning. I think there was 6 of us. I did a 30 minute lower body workout, 30 minutes on the Treadmill and 15 minutes on the elliptical.

    Then I took down the tree and decorations. I’m my mother’s daughter. She always took down the tree and decorations on New Year’s Day.

    Kathy - we always take down Christmas on New Years Day also! Put it away and move on for the year.

    We went to my cousin Cindy's for pork and sauerkraut yesterday which is our tradition. She didn't have it last year with COVID. Was smaller this year with all vaccinated people, but I liked it that way to be honest.

    Today is my husband's birthday...he wants to go and watch the Philadelphia Eagles Game and have appetizers....so we will do that. Back to work and my routine tomorrow. I'm ready for that to be honest . Too much holiday eating lol!

    Rest day…will be at PF early as my mother has a CT-scan at 2:30. I’m focused on trying not to miss workouts two day in a row.

    Nice plans Karen and Kathy. Just keep going.

    Chris it is just cold and windy here.

    Tomorrow starts my month of early bird. I go in an hour early and check the floors and courtrooms. But I get off an hour early also. 👌 So I should be able to get in more steps and some workouts before dinner.

    Back to the races ladies! I ate and drank so many yummy things over the holiday. Yesterday my husband wanted to go and watch the Eagles game for his birthday. Beer and appetizers...yikes on the scale. But back to fasting and keeping it real!

    I decided not to drive into work today because we are meant to get 1-3 inches of snow near work. Not a lot, but people around here drive like crazy people. Do figured why risk it right?

    Putting pork carnitas in the crockpot for dinner with those carb balance street taco sheets (they are super low carb and a ton of fiber....highly recommend if you haven't tried!)

    Great article about all of the benefits we get from exercise on top of weight loss. Pretty compelling!

    Georgia is having really horrible weather. We had storms with 45 mph winds last night. Our power went out for just a little while and there was a tree down at the entrance of the subdivision. Suffice it to say I didn’t make PF before my mother’s appoint.

    It stayed windy all day so I did 60 minutes on my recumbent. Got in some steps at the hospital waiting for mom. She has an appointment tomorrow with the oncologist. We will get the results of the CT scan. I hope to get to PF tomorrow evening.
