How's everyone doing today? I'm gearing up for my favorite exercise class. It's called Barre a Terre and it's stretching and strengthening exercises on the floor. I have a problem in my foot, so a lot of physical exercise that stresses it is off-limits. I log the hour as 30 mins stretching/30 mins pilates.

I also noticed I tend to eat food when offered or when it's, like, a freebie. I got a free frappucino on Halloween offer for tomorrow, but you know what? That's 200 empty calories I don't need. I'll pay for my iced black coffee (7 cals) instead, thankyouverymuch.

How are you all doing?

    I did awesome yesterday! I was so proud of myself! I was at the low end of my calorie range and worked out for 45 minutes! I ended the day with eating about 1400 calories and burned about 2700! And I felt great about it! Hoping I can avoid all the candy in my kids' bags tonight they bring home from trick or treating!
  • Yesterday wasn't great. I didn't log my food intake. We had a b-day celebration at work, with tons of food. While I didn't gorge, it wasn't the healthiest food to eat. But today is off to a better start. I'm on my lunch break at work and getting ready to take advantage of the onsite gym for a quick 20 min cardio.

    Vanessa - what barre video do you do? I'm looking for one.

    And guess what? After writing "no to freebies" while I was online at Trader Joes I took a chocolate caramel from the sample tray - and when I was falling asleep, after *just* hitting my calorie count I went "Oh $%*&%" Reminder to be mindful and pay attention!

    I love this free site Grokker. It has every kind of workout and great food video's too. It's hard to believe it's free. http://grokker.com/search?q=barre
