GOOD LUCK LADIES! WE CAN DO THIS!! REMEMBER "ITS FOR THE SHOES"!!!

    jess, can you make a list of challenges for the upcoming week on the start of new threads, that way we don't need to check in right away in the mornin'. it would be super helpful and motivating

    I really like this idea. Sometimes I only get the challange from seeing other peoples posts.

    I have a dilemna, please help!?!?

    This morning I helped create today's challenge which is 'add 10 mins to your usual workout'. My problem as follows: After I input all of today's meals I still have 159 cals leftover from my 1200 allowed and I gave myself generous portions of tostitos white corn chips to eat with my chili. It's been a light food day. I would really like to take advantage of this fact to spend the hour I would normally exercise catching up on my sewing (I'm making myself a pretty Anna Sui summer dress - would be nice if I finished it BEGORE summer is over. lol). I don't often have this opportunity. That said, I need to walk over to a friend's house later, not far, just a block away. I feel like I am letting myself and you down if I don't exercise. So my question is 'would you take advantage of this opportunity to catch up on stuff or would you work out to stay true to the daily challenge?'

    Thanks for any guidance you can provide.

    I would say sew. You are already low on your calories and I'm pretty sure you don't want to eat a bunch more to make up you exercise calories. :flowerforyou:

    Thanks Jbuerer.

    I was just thinking of heading to the sewing room. I might even have time to walk a bit. hanks for helping. I find balancing everything really hard sometimes. I'm sure I'm not alone.

    Well I did an hour of sewing and then did one of my usual walks. 5.8 kms up the mountain with my dogs. I technically did not do 10 mins more but I did do 60 more than what I intended to do. So I got the best of both worlds tonight, some sewing, laundry AND exercise. Now I just have to figure out what to eat to make up the 342 cals I just burned. :tongue:

    Good night all.

    Good morning fellow shoe lovers! I'm going to have to change my av soon, so I fit in with all of you. I have an awesome one that our photographer took at our wedding, of my feet in my shoes. They aren't red, but they are sexy! I think I even have one strap loosened on it... I can't access the net on our regular computer though, and I don't have the pic on my laptop... DH knows how I can do it using the network, but who knows how long it'll take... lol

    Anyways, I'm off to a great start this morning. I went for another C25K already. Just got up out of bed, threw on sweats, snuck past the dog (she walks even slower than I do, lol) and went for it. Came home and had a bowl of oatmeal with chopped walnuts in it. Usually I do sliced almonds, but DH has discovered the joy of almonds and I don't have any left in the house.

    Ok so I admit it. I broke the challenge already. I went to eat my morning bowl of oatmeal and I had flour bugs in my pantry in EVERYTHING.:noway: I couldn't eat anything in it. :grumble: I ended up eating toast becuase I keep my bread in the fridge because I don't eat it quick enough.

    Take this as a word of warning, make sure all your flour, oats and uncooked grain based products are in air tight containers preferably in the fridge or freezer because flour bugs are a pain to deal with.:sick:

    by flour bugs do you mean silverfish? i think they will get in there even in a container, maybe not air tight, but come on...youll get air in the container :tongue: . that sucks that they got into everything, i've only seen a couple in the past few years, once i still used the flour, but shhh. im not squeemish, so whatevs! :tongue:
