    So I'm doing great at this measuring thing. I measured my oatmeal, the PB and the raisins I put in it. I then had a wrap for lunch and measured and weighed everything I put in it. I have done my treadmill exercise which some might think is crazy.
    3min at 0 incline
    then I did 10,1,9,2,8,3,7,4,6,5,10,9.5,9,8,2,7,3,6,4,5,4,3,2,1 incline at one minute each at 4 miles an hour.
    then I had 5 minutes left so I did 2 minutes at 4. 2 minutes at 4.5. 2 minute at 5. 1 minute at 5.5 and 1 minute at 6. I burned 410 calories. I think tonight I'll do 30 day shred and 1 hour on the Fit if nothing is on TV.

    Okay I measured my salad dressing today...I've never done that! It was actually fairly close to what I usually use though, so apparently I am an EXCELLENT salad dressing estimator...hummus however is a different story!

    On a side note, I am officially banking on that cumulative theory of exercise, that 3 10 minute workouts is as good for you as 1 30 minute workout. This morning I did a 10 minute fitness ball workout...and I just took a 20 minute (COLD) walk outside with my dog. So I did 30 minutes today but not all at once and that seemed to work better...although on days that I have to work that might not be possible...I don't know...at least I got moving today.

    Why do I even bother? Some people just think that they are so much smarter then other people. I bet you that they really aren't!!! I also hope that they are working on themselves because trying to make other people feel bad to make them look good is SO SO SO SO SO UGLY!!!!!!!!!

    I hope that they never make a mistake. If they do I hope they feel as stupid as they are TRYING to make other people feel!

    Hey now, settle down. :HUG:

    I don't even want to know what's going on now... it'll probably make me mad. Haha. So just relax and focus on the good stuff.

    Accentuate the positive, eliminate the negative. One day I said that SO much I decided to make it a song... I'd even sing it for you but yeah... songs don't translate well through text. :wink:

    So true, so true. I was really good friends with a girl in high school like this. Whatever you said, it was wrong or she knew something MORE about it, kwim? If you said, "the sky is a wonderful shade of blue today!" she would say, "well, it is more of a baby blue with a touch of lavender." I kid you not. She was a very smart girl, but she wanted to make sure everyone KNEW how smart she was...'cause she had nothin' else goin' for her, ifyaknowwhatimean. :wink: We aren't friends any more. :indifferent:

    come on, Nicky! I'm putting off weight training! Sing me a song! Pleeeeease?! BTW, you could teach yoga with that phrase. "accentuate the positive, eliminate the negative...deep breath in, bend to the side, deep breath out. that's goooood." :happy:

    I was gonna say that it can't be that hard to learn if my 2 year old speaks it. but I don't want to come off B**CHY. Wouldn't want anyone to get their panties in a bunch again.

    Well, okay, but only because you asked nicely!

    ACCENTUATE THE POSITIVE, EEEEEELIMINATE THE NEGATIVE. LA LA LA LA. ELIMINATE THE POSITIVE... OH ****... ACCENTUATE THE POSITIVE, ELIMINATE THE NEGATIVE... that's what makes the world go round! Whenever I feel blue, I just think of you and I accentuate the positive and eliminate the negative.

    :bigsmile:

    The end. That's an exact transcript of how I was singing too. Heh.

    *sigh* Fine....

    I DID however, already do my 20 min. ab dvd & my 30 min. of cardio. If I can get in my 40 min. weight training, I'll be very pleased with myself.

    Off I go!
