    Well I just completed Day 2 of 30-Day Shred and once again - it kicked my butt:sad:
    Gonna take the weekend off from "Shredding" but will resume on Monday, but that doesn't mean I won't exercise over the weekend. I figured I'll do the Shred Monday-Friday and see how that goes. Also, I have a Bowflex that hasn't been used in 2 years, so I'm gonna dust it off and start training 3x a week with my honey.
    Hope everyone has a great weekend and a great SuperBowl Sunday. Remember, it's ok to indulge once in a while. I try to give myself 1 cheat day a week that way I don't overeat when I'm craving something.......:drinker: :drinker:

    HAPPY FRIDAY GREEN BEANS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So honey and I have a meeting with one of my closest friends who happens to be my old boss, a current client and closer to my dad then anyone, so we tell him I am dieting so when we meet today we need to pick something other then McDonalds if possible......wouldn't ya know he chooses a Salad Buffet! Argh, thats the worst....why you say? Because for $8.50 I eat a salad......at a buffet.........sounds crazy right? IT IS....why? cause you could eat 1500 cals at a buffet......argh....think I am gonna recommend a regular old restaurant.

    So anyway, we are all gonna have a GREAT weekend of getting healthy, stay true to your body at those super bowl parties..........

    GO GREEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Good Friday afternoon, everyone. Today I did much better but still have an earache. I'm going to the gym after work for an hour on the elliptical. Tomorrow morning, I'm going on a 2 mile walk with some friends then I have a bunch of paperwork to do at home. Hopefully, I do well tomorrow so I can cheat a little on Sunday:happy:

    Here's to a successful weekend for one and all:drinker:

    TGIF!!

    Well, today has been really OFF for me. I ran errands, which is a drive of about 25 miles to where we shop. I did take one snack, and water. Have a lot of calories to eat yet....Do any of you have calorie counters of heart rate monitors that you wear? please share any info/likes/dislikes. i am considering getting one. the JM 30 - day shredd sounds like a good investment also! something that is starting to make sense to me, is that we honestly need to eat all day long....sounds crazy, but it really does make a difference in stablilizing our sugar levels.

    n2dfire ~ i did that check too on the home page. if i continue to follow the current plan MFP has, i will lose 10 lbs in 5 weeks. this will be interesting to see the results. again, thanks for the fine job on the chart.....'green team froggers'!

    violet1 ~ 'roll over calories', I LOVE IT!

    sassiebritches ~ mmmm, salad bars are my favorite! i could easily eat 2 platefuls of salad. i get strange looks from my family when i eat more salad then all the other yummy foods!

    porka29 ~ hey, thanks for the 'sunshine'...we will be having warmer temps Sat, and hopefully out of the single digits/teens for a while. mmmm, delish SUBWAY!

    velvetwig ~ that is one thing i want to do more....bake/roast turkey, and freeze a lot of it.

    kels0724 ~ willpower/MINDPOWER! i am learning when i am hungry (not physically), that really i am 'searching'....could be boredom, sad, lonely, anxious. really look at what it is you truly want.....i know you can do it!

    jaque509 ~ yeah, good control over the fries, and even better the choice w/Subway! kudos to you!

    yeahbuddy ~ take care and get better soon!

    WELCOME to all the newbies! so glad to have you along on this journey!

    well, time to get some supper here and a good nites rest later for my all-day wrestling (bus trip) meet 2morrow. have a good weekend GT! can't wait to check back!

    Well, I went to the dr. after work tonight and I have an ear infection in my right ear and a bulging ear drum with lots of fluid behind it in my left ear. Plus, I'm still coughing a little. So, I got some medication and hopefully will be back full board by Monday.

    Thanks to all for your well wishes, I really appreciate it:flowerforyou:

    (Where's our fearless leader been today?)

    Forgot to say I didn't work out tonight:frown:

    I also did not go the gym and work out today, I did buy a food digital scale and go shopping for us, ate out with GUILTLESS at Chili's - wow, it was in the database here, didn't even have to look it up (still did to make sure:laugh: ) so I separated all the meat and stuff to portion sizes so I will not skew from a size, bf was thinking I was so cute for loving my new food scale. BTW - I bought a scale two years ago but it was not digital, once it turned yellow from not using it, I gave it to the Vetrans.......so I'm happy that I'm doing it right again! for reals! He said my face looks smaller! whoo hoo!

    Good morning, greenies! Today I went for a two mile walk with some friends then after we were done, I did another two mile walk/jog. It felt really good after not being able to work out so much these last two weeks.

    Well, I need to go take a nap as I've had to take some cough medicine with codeine and now I'm really sleepy.:yawn:

    I'll check back later. Have a great day everyone!
