Need some midweek motivation?! Join us for a "Skinny Wed.!" :flowerforyou: This is what it entails....double, double, double!
Double your water intake (within healthy limits) :happy:
Double your exercise :happy:
Double your will-power to log every calorie that crosses your lips and to STOP eating after supper! :happy:
This will help us to meet the end of the week with a smile on our face knowing that we've done our best! :bigsmile:
We will be looking forward to a meeting with Mr. Scale, rather than dreading that weekly date! I am up for it! Are you in??? I AM SO IN!!!! :drinker:

    Well, I'm all for doubling water and exercise but no way for not eating after supper. On my food plan, we are to eat every 2 to 3 hours and up to one hour before bedtime, preferably protein. Thanks for motivating me on the water and exercise though!

    Okay tomorrow is going to be hard I am going to a friends place who has no clue about fitness and eating right. She is nursing a newborn so I know she needs to eat more but I remember a talk we had once and I was telling her what I eat for calories and she look at me and said don't you need like 3000 cal a day to nurse LOL. I so do not eat that much and I tried to tell her that and she would not even hear of it. But on the up side I am bring lunch for us I did make enough to feed a small army but I want there to be leftovers so she will not need to cook dinner. It is part of her gift for the baby. Wish me luck I will need it.
