    You'll probably be more stable doing the jacks BEFORE the wine, lol.

    But nah...if there's something you want, you either leave room for it or make room for it. You're making room in your daily count.

    Personally I'd rather go without than do even ONE jumping jack.....there's only so far I would go for wine....

    The way I look at it is if your doing it right 85-90% of the time, the go ahead and have that glass of wine. If your going to compare every rare indulgence to how your going to have to burn that off, than that will just drive me crazy. I know I work hard and do it right most of the time, so the rare treat from time to time isn't going to hurt me!

    And yes, I also have chocolate daily :)

    Now to put on my trainers and earn my 8 oz wine. Regardless of reassurance this is making me feel rather sad and obsessive. Think that my lifestyle change is working. A good bit of Protestant work ethic combined with Calvinist guilt is in play here...but whatever!

    Truth in what you are saying. Just only a few days in - had pizza night and am worried I will go off the deep end tonight. Kind of an AA moment? Well E(aters) A.

    This is what ideally I want for the basement so that when I get to the end of the day of taking care of the kids - if I want to have something I can't 'afford' I will be able to earn it without having to drive to the gym. LOL

    It's funny because I live in Washington State, where we just legalized marijuana --and even though I don't partake, it's big fodder for conversations here right now. I just posted in the "I shot the Sheriff - does smoking and fitness.....[whatever]?" it's a recent thread....http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/838173-i-shot-the-sheriff-smoking-pot-fitness-can-you-do-it


    So my brain is definitely on Saturday time here in the States.

    Too funny! And that is food for thought - although from most people I know it is a good way to gain an appetite (something I don't need ANY help with)!
