    Yes, it is hard when you have company. If you are like me you like to pamper them and have extra snacks around. Clean out those cabinets and put things out that you know you can eat. Drink lots of water and know we are pulling for you! You will have a great Skinny Wed! We leave for vacation tomorrow so I will have similar challenges for a week. But...I am determined not to gain!!! I vow to get a workout in before we pull out tomorrow! Watch out Wed....here we come! :wink:

    I didn't get a chance to hit the gym today and I wasn't so good with the water intake, so I need to double up tomorrow!

    Thanks again for this Fab :)

    OK Lexi, kin, unconn, dawnc and lisaL....BRING IT!!! :laugh:

    I am happy to report I got a workout in this morning while hubby was packing. I am hoping we arrive at a hotel tonight where I can get some walking in or hit their gym for a bit. Healthy eating and lots of water so far. Sounds like it's going to be a great Skinny Wed for all!:flowerforyou:
  • Hey all, mid morning check in

    First off, good for you Sharon!:bigsmile: And you got in a good workout I saw!

    I'm at 64 oz with my water:drinker: and had a very healthy spinach egg white omlet for breakfast. So far I got a 2 mile walk in, did 30 mins of jump rope and 15 mins of step ups (those kill me!). Gonna have to push myself harder for my afternoon workout, just got an HRM and it really opened my eyes to the huge difference on actuallity of calories burned! Hoping to get another 4 miles in. Will check back later.

    Good luck to everyone today in this Skinny Wednesday challenge:flowerforyou:

    Got up to go to the gym this morning but it was so pretty out I decided to go for a walk instead. Walked for an hour and a half with my husband. Not only did I burn 520 calories, I had a great time hanging out with my husband before he goes to work. Now for a healthy breakfast then planting my garden! Have a great day everyone!:bigsmile:

    Well I got to work & there's a birthday today! So I had 2 peanut butter choc chip cookies :devil: So for my morning break I headed out & took a quick 15 min walk. Then I did again for 20 min on my lunch break! I'm trying to force the H2O as well! I'm on a mission today to challenge myself & I failed the first one when I saw the cookies! :explode:

    I'm in! I don't know if I can double my water intake, since I usually drink 12+ cups of it daily, but I'm definitely going to push it on the exercise! I'm going to speed up to 4 mph during my lunch break walk, do the 30 Day Shred tonight, and after I recover a little bit, do another round of push ups & squats. That'll keep me too busy to overeat after dinner!
