    No problem! We can do this! I went to my doctor the other day... I started talking to him and he said "that is just an excuse". Sort of a wake up moment for me. Told me to work out 5 days and week and cut the carbs down. I like that fact that he was so blunt! LOL

    Still not fully back into the groove after being out of town.

    Did go to Aerobics class on Thursday evening. And, today did back exercises including 40 crunches & planks, too. Also, did push-ups.

    Now, if I can just get the dieting back under control... and water increased.
