Okay I haven't seen a post this morning. Hope you don't mind me starting one.

I am so frustrated. I have done really bad this weekend. Halloween is really hard for me. I had a hard time with my will power. So I did eat candy all weekend.
Enough!
I am going to start this week on the right food.
I packed up the candy that my kids don't like and sent it to school with my 5th grader. They are going to send it to the troops.
The other candy I stuck each child's in a Ziploc bag and told the kids to hide there candy from me. :smile: Hope fully it wont last long.

I am going to set my goals for this week.

I am going to do the shred for 5 days M-F
I am also going to do the Treadmill 3 days this week.
I am going to drink all my water.
I am not going to cheat with any junk food.

On another note.
My thoughts are with Canalitas. Hope all is well. Hope you are back soon.

Keep up the good work Purple. Don't give up. We can always make bad decisions but it is not the end of the world. Get back on the wagon and enjoy the ride. We can do this.
Have a great week.
Melissa

    Melissa - that's a great attitude - don't beat yourself up - move forward!

    I am pre-planning a tough week for myself - I will be out of town Tues - Sunday Tues-Friday for work and then a baseball tournament for my son over the weekend. I have packed some meal replacement bars and almonds to fill in the gaps if only bad choices are available. I am also packing at least 1 33 oz water for each day so that I could refill it in case I am not where I can buy some. Exercise will be scarce this week - I walked and jogged for 30 min yesterday, I will probably shred today not sure about the rest of the week. In between trying to pack and prep food to leave home so my family isn't eating out every meal.

    Have had a good start to the day - 32 oz of water down, smart start cereal and banana for breakfast - now lunch time so I need to go get something - later gaters!

    This week is going to be a little tougher for me. Lately I've been lucky enough to not get scheduled for weeknights at my 2nd job, but now that the holidays are coming I work Tues and Wedn night this week. That means going straight from job 1 to job 2, so the only time to P90x is at 4:30am. I know I can overcome it...its just going to be a little exhausting. I'll be X'ing tonight after work and then trying to clean the fish and turtle tanks, and put away laundry.

    sigh...I've been on a month long plateau...it's killing me:grumble: - I've been at 202 FOREVER! I just want to see that 199 on the scale! I joined a gym, started spinning, weight training and I'm staying in my calories. I hope this week is the breaking point. I want next week's weigh in to be in the hundreds!
