Hi!
Nam - what a small world! Have you been to Guildford before? If you haven't then you should know that the court is just around the corner from a Jamie's Italian that is well worth saving up the calories for.
My boss has told me to stay home for the rest of the week and get better. I'm relieved that my office are being so supportive but I'm going out of my mind being stuck in the house and am desperate to start working out again. I've been slipping too easily into old bad habits. I have to remind myself that this isn't the end of it I'll be back on it just as soon as I can.
Todays goals are a bit like yesterdays:
1. Water, got a big jug of the days water next to my bed
2. Stay in bed
3. No comfort eating
Hope you're all doing well.

Kim gosh I hadn't realised how unwell you are. Really wishing you a speedy recovery. The more rest you get the quicker you can get back in action. It's definitely tough to avoid falling into old habits but remember how far you have come already and reach for a glass of water instead!

Good morning, happy hump day! I am getting ready to fuel my body and then head to zumba. My legs are soooo sore from kickboxing yesterday, I probably won't get to jog, I'll be lucky if I get to walk after class. I hope everyone has a great day.
Nicole, great job on the water. I do wish there were more hours in the day, but it would just give me a bigger reason to procrastinate even more!
shnnd, sorry you're having a bad week. But you're right, today is a new day and only you can turn it around!
Nam, you're bums and tums class reminds me of the PG version of abs and *kitten* workout! Hope youre able to get in your workout and make smart food choices.

Well, we got maybe a whole 2 inches of snow. It was the raining ice that deterred me from going to bowling. All in all, I'm happy I stayed home so I got to complete my workout. I'll have to maybe change the schedule for Tuesday to be my rest day. I don't want to workout at 10:30pm.
Does anyone sit on a swiss ball at work?0 -

Terrible day work wise today and it put me in a foul mood all day. Got my water in but all after 5pm so hopefully I won't be up all night! Went out for lunch and made my class but even that didn't make me feel better. Hope I can shake this mood tomorrow.

Looked for yesterdays post to update it........................realized that I guess I didn't post anything yesterday.......... Hmmmmm I must be losing my mind instead of fat!!!
Anyhow. I stayed up until like 1:30 this morning on the wii just to break even on calories that I had eaten yesterday. That has to stop. I have to quit eating like an idiot.
Jan 13 Goals.
1.) NO EATING LIKE AN IDIOT!!!!
2.) WATER WATER WATER
3.)EXERCISE-EVEN IF IT'S ONLY THE GAMES ON THE WII FIT. MY FAMILY IS HAVING SO MUCH FUN WITH IT BECAUSE WE CAN ALL DO IT TOGETHER AND IT'S PLAYING. PLUS ITS WINTER TIME OUT THERE AND WE CANT GET OUTSIDE AND SO THIS GIVES US A WAY TO BE ACTIVE, HAVE FUN AND SPEND TIME TOGETHER. IT HAS BEEN COMPLETELY WORTH IT.
4.)COOK DINNER FOR THE HOUSE........................ BUT i NEED TO EAT THE SALAD THATS IN THE FRIDGE INSTEAD SO IT DOESN'T GO BAD----AND I'M NOT EATING TOO MANY CALS!!!0 -
You all amaze me everyday!!!
So dedicated to what you are doing and even if you do fall off the horse you guys are right back on. Eveyone is doing a great job, despite the bad days, the TOM's, and the rush of everyday life. If I could just get a grip on my own dedication again I may be half as great as you all. Keep it up.0 -
Well I didn't make it to the gym yesterday (again). I decided to push back my workout plan for New Year's a week because my body isn't used to all the work I'm doing without it since I was super lazy over break and I'm tired all the time and my muscles hurt from walking to all my classes.
So goals for today are:
1. Water!
2. Do work in between my classes so I can get everything done that I need to get done.
3. Be home by 12/1 tonight for class tomorrow.
Have a good day everyone!
