ARE YOU READY???!!!! :bigsmile:
I feel a Skinny Saturday Challenge coming on! If you have trouble getting through the weekend, hop onboard and join the SSC! Here is what it entails:
Think double, double, double... :happy: :happy:
Double the exercise
Double the water intake (within healthy limits) :drinker:
Double the willpower to STOP eating after dinner and log every bite that passes your lips :bigsmile:

All you have to do is commit now and then report in tomorrow on how it is going and to encourage others. Remember to stay within your calorie limits and log every bite. This is just what we need to meet Mr. Scale with a smile on our face! :heart: :flowerforyou:

    I so want to commit to SSC....gonna post it with the intention of giving it everything I got.
    So much to do, so much mess to undo! And all I want to do is stay in my PJs manana.....

    totally beat this week.....cleared out the entire upstairs, way too many books and files....most I just lugged into the garage, so to start there. I so just want to dump them, but I can't get myself to tear myself from them! luggage/baggage...???!!

    Yikes & we had pizza tonight! I had only the one, but that's bec' I had a dozen hot wings! w/blue cheese, to boot!

    I'm really gonna push myself to exercise...etc.

    I'm in. It's my Saturday to work :grumble: so I'll be getting more activity than I usually do on a Saturday!

    I have to say--I really think the Skinny Wednesday Challenge helped me get off the 2 pounds I put on since quitting smoking!:happy: I am SO glad that my ticker is correct once more!:laugh:

    Almost time for bed since I need to be up EARLY in the morning! Have a good evening everyone!

    Welcome jahressa! That is right...let the FUN begin. I just burned some cals doing Slim in 6, Ramp It Up. I just love it! I am always a bit sore the next day...and it is a good sore. I am planning on eating clean the rest of the day and getting another workout in. Make time for yourself today! You are worth it!:flowerforyou:

    11 AM report: Have burned 596 cals doing 1 hour of work in the yard, drank 24 oz. of water, and heading downtown for Santa Fe Trail festivities and a greenhouse trip to buy flowers for my ceremonial May Day porch potting! Later . . .

    Good morning everyone. :bigsmile: Well I got my morning aerobics done and about to jump on the treadmill and see how many miles I can do before I have to get ready for the bbq. On a happy note, I found out that the park its at has a walking trail, so I'm gonna see if I can sneak away for awhile to check that out.:smile: AND I WILL BE GOOD AND LOG EVERYTHING! I'll check in later tonite.

    Good luck everyone and have an excellent Skinny Saturday!:flowerforyou:

    Hey all you Skinnies! I'm down 40 oz water so far. No work out yet, but am really hoping to. I'm babysitting all day (have been since last night). So along with my almost-3-y/o, I have an 8 month old today. Gym childcare is now closed so I can't do that (had a bday party this morning to go to), but I may do 30 day shred while the girls are sleeping and then some pilates tonight. I'll def. need something to relax me at that point!
    For those of you with more than one kid: how do you do it?! I've been "putting out fires" all morning! Don't get me wrong, we've been having so much fun playing, but man, I am pooped! I thought I was struggling with taking care of my daughter since my hubby went overseas, but I found last night and today that I have been mistaken... I have the utmost respect for single mothers and now even more so for the single moms with more than one.

    I am here peeps, just busy! Over 1000 cals so far today, and I hesitate to tell you what I was doing but trust me it was strenuous
    exercise. It is a great day here.




    Lets make it a skinny month!

    Those are your May Day flowers.

    I already received mine, a lovely potted begonia from a woman who buys 12 every spring, and gives one to each of the top 12 people she feels have had a positive impact on her life that year. Isn't that both sweet and thoughtful. Her name is Joy and she is!
