I'm in! I need this so much! I do really well Mon - Fri then just fall apart over the weekend!
I've started the day with a small bowl of porridge and a glass of fresh carrot and orange juice and I'm about to have scrambled eggs with smoked salmon for lunch. Planning to have prawn Pad Thai for dinner.
Exercise will just be walking around town birthday present shopping.
Hope everyone is having a good Skinny Saturday!0 -
Have just complete bootcamp (420 cals burned) and have drunk almost 2 litres of water already and it's only 1pm
Am off out for the day but have packed my protein bar and apple for my 4pm snack.
Will check in again later0 -
I'm in too!
Have a full day, of house cleaning to do for today!
Cleaning out closets, getting rid of too large clothes!0 -
:flowerforyou: Great plans everyone! Several of you already have a great start on the day. I see good planning here! That is the key to success! It has been said "If you fail to plan....you plan to fail." Not us man! We are planning to SUCCEED!
My plan is to eat light and nix the snacks! I was born to snack so that is a challenge. :sad: Only fruit for me between meals today. Also, I will hit the mat twice today. I am getting the first workout in early. That is always key to my success. I will check in and out with you. That always inspires me! Have an awesome day everyone! Check in and let us know how it is going and encourage a new buddy! We are going to rock this Skinny Saturday! :bigsmile:0 -

Sassy: Thanks for reminding us to drink up! :drinker: I am hitting the tap right now! Mmmmm....flavored water sounds yummy! Great way to get it all in. What kind do you suggest?0 -
We love water! Warm, cold, flavored, plain, frozen.
Happy Skinny Saturday.
My day is so disjointed, but have burned 723 cals so far and hope to torch more.
Only 64 ounces of cool clear water so far.
Hotter than Hades out so I had better drink up!0 -
Oh I am so glad you did this for the weekend too. I have been gone all day so although I've been really good on the food and water part I have not worked out yet. I was really tempted to skip today especially because my legs are still sore from Wed. LOL. Thanks for doing this. I will update on what I did before I go to bed tonight!0

Walked all around the Farmer's Market and bought loads of freh veggies--AND some incredible whole-grain breads. I think supper is going to be a huge salad and the Rosemary-Garlic bread I bought there!
Going to do more walking videos this afternoon.
Lots of water being downed--lost count of the ounces while out, though.
Carried the grandbaby in the Snugli for a large part of the time we were out--he's so sweet. And I love being able to give him back to Mommy and Daddy when he cries! LOL!0 -

:flowerforyou: I love your goals....good for you! You are that much closer to that little black dress! I am glad you enjoy the challenges. I get alot out of reading about everyone's efforts. It gives me the boost to kick it up a notch! Why thanks to all of you!
I have had a pretty good Skinny Sat.! Fortunately, I just wasn''t that hungry. :happy: So, I was able to nix the snacks! Yay! I sometimes get carried away with lowfat snacks. I also get an "A" on water intake today. As hot as it was in the midwest today that was not a problem. I hit the mat twice and feel like my foot is healing fast because of the Pilates. I am keeping that blood circulating so the swelling is down! I will be ready for dancing in no time!:laugh: Good news: My clothes are getting bigger! My goal is to wear a "10" in 2010. I may just meet that goal this summer. The 12s are getting loose. Can't wait to sing "Pants on the ground...pants on the ground..." Ha! :laugh: :blushing: I have been buying clothes at resale stores as I have melted down. I highly recommend it! When I hit a size 10 I will treat myself to a few new pair! :bigsmile: Keep ya posted.
How have the rest of you done today? Are you beginning to see changes in your body and the way your clothes fit? Have you set small, attainable goals for yourself that you can celebrate? Maybe we can all shoot for that little black dress....and some pearls! :bigsmile: All the best to all of you! Have a blessed Sunday and I will meet you in the forums for a Skinny Wed. Challenge....Watch out Mr. Wednesday....we are coming for ya!:smooched: :bigsmile: :flowerforyou:0
