It's good to think positive. Diet or not diet related.

I had a new client text me that has lost 4lbs since we started last week, and this is after a 6 week plateau. My advice to her was to try and over-eat last Saturday, and then get back on her diet. It made my day!

    I tried yoga and loved it! I gave it a go a few years ago, didn't like it. The dvd I had almost put me to sleep, but I found one that I really like and I can feel it already! :)

    I found my work cell phone after I thought it was lost. I would have had to pay to replace it- thank GOD I found it!

    I haven't been able to exercise outside because of rain for the past 9 days, so I have been exercising on a recumbent stationary bike. Today was beautiful so I did a 6.5k jog to the hardware store and back and it was easier than ever. Mixing up the exercise turned out to be really helpful.

    Several things today:
    1. The sun is shining and it's warm outside (windows are open)
    2. My teenaged son and I went to a movie together
    3. I took a walk, even though I have a headache
    4. I got to visit with my grandmother
    5. I got a check I have been waiting
    6. The boil water advisory has been lifted so I can use my water again

    Thanks for the reminder...looks like it's been a great day! :bigsmile:

    It is a beautiful day! We took our 2 kids and 2 dogs on a nice long walk! We did stop for ice cream but we all got the child's size. It was so nice to be able to be outside! :happy:

    My crazy Contracts professor decided not to count our midterm exam in our final grade determination!
    I have a feeling I didn't do very well, so I'm very happy!! LOL =)

    I made it a couple minutes farther into the 30 Day Shred than I've been able to do before :)

    I can do an hour and a half workout with 45 minutes of aerobic exercise and 45 minutes of stationary biking, but I still can't make it 10 minutes into the Shred. Ugh!

    Was chaperone for my daughter's after school class today
    She was SO proud that her mommy was chaperone and kept telling me to walk around and ask the kids if they needed help/needed anything....

    Well in the downunder part of the land downunder it was 13 deg C this morning at 6.00 a.m. and I got my 20 year old son (who had secondary cancer last year) out for a 15 km bike ride with me and it was wonderful to see the twinkling lights of the other side of the bay as we rode along the beach, and it is wonderful that he wants to get in shape again (and with me).

    Coffee and fruit toast (for him) afterwards, and I still feel it is the best start to the day in the world!

    i made it thru the allergist appointment with my 3-year-old with my sanity intact :)

    i ate a cupcake and had room in my calorie allotment to do so (even if it wasnt the best nutritional choice)

    My 6-year-old finished his homework without too much badgering

    My 3-year old got a bit roughed up playing with his brother and came to me, crying & saying he had an owwie and needed a hug, then looked me and told me i didnt need to hug his penis :laugh: Thank God for that!! LOL!

    Great topic...nice to think of the positive.

    My 6 year old lost his first tooth today!

    After a grim week of no sun, mud and melting, dirty snow I saw a bluebird pair come back to start a nest in a birch tree in our yard......spring is coming!
