    Off to the gym for a while. We are on vacation so second workout will be hiking. Hotel has a breakfast buffet with some healthy choices. My challenges are appetizers and desserts at supper. :embarassed: Last night I indulged and had a few bites of each but ate only half of my entree. Hoping vacation recovery won't be too painful. I am trying to make good choices and get some exercise in. Wishing all of you a wonderful skinny saturday. :bigsmile: Be sure to check in and let us know how you are doing and encourage someoe else!:heart:
    Cheers!:flowerforyou:

    Memorial weekend focus: So thankful for the sacrifices made by our soldiers so we can enjoy the freedoms we have. Being ever thoughtful for the famiies who have lost loved ones in their service to our country. Spending time with my son and soldier who was one of the fortunate ones to return from war with sound mind and body. We are so blessed and do not take our freedoms for granted!

    Freedom isn't free. Pray for those who serve our country and their families!

    Whenever I see anyone in uniform, I make it a point to walk up to them, shake their hand, and say "thank you for your service". These men and women do what I know I could never do and I'm grateful to them. I'm so glad your son is safe. Please thank him for me. :flowerforyou: :heart: :flowerforyou:

    Fab - please thank your son for me, too. Our soldiers really do sacrifice so much for us! They, and their families, deserve more thanks than I could ever express.

    I've got my harder workout in for today! I did ChaLean Extreme Burn Intervals and Ab Burner. Later I think I'm going the the lake to enjoy this beautiful day and I'll get my second workout in swimming - I LOVE warm weather! I've already got half my water in for a normal day.. so I'm off to a good start!

    My prayers are with you and your husband, :flowerforyou: My prayer for our son was that whereever he would go, God would go first. Thisis my prayer for your brave husband and his comrades. Also praying that angels surround his beautiful wife and child and give her peace of mind and comfort while her husband is away. There is no explaining the stress of a parent, spouse or sibiling of a soldier. I know and am in prayer for you. Your fellow won't believe how SMOKIN' HOT is wife is thanks to MFP! Work it girl!:heart::bigsmile:

    Thanks to the many who show support for our military. My son has been on the receiving end of these good deeds....bumped up to first class, had dinners purchased for him, handshakes and thank-yous. It is a real blessing to know how much he is appreciated. God bless you for doing this for someone's else's son or daughter. Don't we live in a great country! :smooched: :heart:

    Yup - my day is done and I'm at 1100 calories - woo!

    Breakfast: Strawberry/oat/vanilla unsweetened almond milk smoothie
    Lunch: whole wheat homemade sub with ham, turkey, lettuce, tomato and mustard and 2 cups of watermelon
    Dinner: burger, sausage (both Blue Menu and no buns) corn on the cob and stir fried veggies, strawberries and light whipped cream
    Woo!

    *I'm at the cottage now so I just Turbo'd 20 min and went for a 60 min walk and its only 12:30 now so I’ll walk again later I’m sure or play basketball.

    So far so good. I have about 600 calories left AFTER pre-logging my dinner! I made it a point to cut out sweet tea today.. I love that stuff but it's not easy on the calories.

    Hi all, everyone seems to be doing so good today!:bigsmile:

    Well today has been excellent so far! I didn't think I could do it, but I got in 10 miles today! Water intake is way over 128 already, very thirsty:drinker: I 've been very good eating wise and also got my ab work in early, big thanks to my hubby for watching our son (hes so supportive:heart:). Probably just end the day with a walk, if the wind lets up over here.:smile:

    Good luck to everyone the rest of the day! And Happy Memorial Day!

    Dear holy lord someone shoot me now...just got my 30 Day Shred DVD in the mail and decided I'd try it out for my Skinny Saturday Challenge...WHAT THE HECK! I want to die now...I will be going for a short walk later to the park with my mini just to work out my muscles and get double that exercise in.

    Not doing toooo well drinking water, unfortunately. I am a slacker :(

    But I have been doing EXTREMELY well on the snacking! Lately I have been a snacking fiend but I decided that today is the day I will start getting back on track with the random eating and snacking!

    Ha.. I thought it was funny. Went out to dinner and decided to order sweet tea.. one glass shouldn't hurt since I have over 600 calories left - and they brought me UNsweetened tea! I knew right then I was mean to stay away, especially since my boyfriend and I both ordered the same thing and they decided to make only mine unsweet.. lol!
