SBF2 Reboot Boogaloo! week of Nov 2

WOW seems appropriate to me - nice!!!

I didn't do my DVD yesterday. And I didn't clean either. I went shopping w/my husband, wasted a lot of time trying to track a FB friend who was running the NYC marathon, and read some magazines. (The latter is somewhat in support of the goal of cleaning - I have a huge collection of magazines that I can't bring myself to throw out until I've read them. It's a slow process, though!) But, I managed not to eat any sweets when I was feeling frustrated, so that's at least something. I set aside (read: hid) 5 little tootsie rolls from the Halloween candy to have sometime, but I'm not sure when. If I'm having a truffle this week, it might be later. I am having to do a lot of planning with this one dessert per week plan - I also wanted to have hot chocolate sometime soon, but I'm not sure when. Is scheduling hot chocolate for 2 weeks from now a little bit crazy? :huh:

Maybe I will just stick with this for 4-6 weeks, and then increase to 2 sweets/week. I do think that it is helping with my cravings and random eating not to have as many sweets.

Yikes, this got long and rambly (big surprise, right?). I'll post back later tonight with my goals for the week - other than pushups and desserts, I haven't decided yet.

November?!? boogaloo...

Duh. I don't even know what day or month it is. :laugh:
I wrote that at about 7 this am, only about 30 mins after rolling out of bed. Wasn't quite awake. Yeah, that's my story and I'm sticking to it.
I've already accomplished a lot this morning. Got the house clean, did some stuff with Alex. Now I just need to work out today. Not motivated. Feeling very sleepy.
Alex's tumbling place called and said the class he was scheduled to start in tomorrow did not have enough kids, so they are moving him up to the next level class. I think he's ready to move up anyway. His teacher wanted to keep him with her since he's starting to make some progress and she wants to keep working with him. I thought that was sweet of her. She doesn't even know he can do a somersault yet! He needed to be able to do that before he could move to the next class, so it worked out! He's always had a hard time jumping off things. I found out he's just been holding out! He CAN jump off things. He just doesn't! He jumped off the couch and the fireplace by himself!
Mary, I don't know how you get your body to do that. :flowerforyou:
V, get better soon! Sorry you keep getting sick!
CP, keep it up girl! Sounds like you are doing great with the dessert thing.
I made stew in the crockpot last night. I smelled it when I woke up in the middle of the night and found myself starving! It smelled so good. So I am going to go have some!
Finding myself boogaloo!

Hope tonight goes well for you CP!
Well, I think AF is gone, but I'm still fat. :grumble: I don't understand how I could be doing so much better than I was a few months ago yet the weight is just not coming off. Sure I mess up a lot and eat what I shouldn't, but it's still a whole lot better than it was. I don't get it. I am trying to do this as a lifestyle change, without logging because that's not a lifestyle change, although logging is helpful so I know how much I am eating. I have to remember that when I start working out I tend to get bigger for awhile, then it melts off pretty fast. I guess I want instant gratification and I'm not getting that.
Today is:
Alex's tumbling class
some cleaning
figuring out where to go for our overnight camping trip this weekend
a work out of some sort (taebo or shred)
and maybe a walk since it's going to be gorgeous again

Tomorrow is my busy day so no official workout but if I remember I will go out and work in the yard.

Trying to stay motivated boogaloo.

Sick.

Really sick now, and with all the current hysteria, a bit worried. :grumble:

Anyways, hydrating and resting are my current goals for the day. Also, trying not to feel guilty that I'm not pushing through and working out anyway. (as I'm wheezing, probably a really bad idea) That and marking five more papers (or re-marking. . .I always mark the first ten in pencil, and then put them at the bottom of the pile).

Being sick sucks boogaloo.:flowerforyou:

V, how are you feeling this morning? Better? I hope.

Good morning CP and Mary!

Today is a day off but I may get some thing in anyway. Horse therapy, meet with a friend, watch BL, church tonight. Maybe work in the yard if I feel so inclined.
We finally got our camping trip mostly figured out. We're going a little south, around Waco and going for two nights. Should be interesting. Should be fun!

I need to get us breakfast. Alex is already in his chair and I haven't even made it yet. Oops.

Have a blessed Wednesday!
MM

V, I'm sorry. That would make me feel embarrassed to have to wear a mask. Everyone would think you have the swine flu. Well, listen to the doc and rest.

I worked in the yard for about an hour or so. Found a dead squirrel in the backyard. I'm not a huge squirrel fan but I don't like seeing dead animals. Makes me sad. I tend to be visual about things and I don't need to picture how it died. :noway:
I don't know that I burned many calories but I did move several rocks (getting creeped out by the spiders under them) and transferred some plants and pulled weeds. I did do something and that counts.

Creeped out boogaloo!
MM

You know, there's been so much talk about the swine flu around here lately. They handed out hand sanitizer to every person in the building, put disinfectant wipes around the copier, and had the safety officer come to our quarterly department meeting to talk about it. I half wanted to start a pool to see who I know will get it first. It's wrong, I know. :embarassed: I hope you feel better soon, V, whatever it is. :flowerforyou:

No work out today. :frown: I may try to take a walk later if I have time.

I shouldn't say no work out. I did put the new tent up to air it out and that was a bit of a work out! Cleaning counts too, since I rarely do it.
I don't know if I will have time to post tomorrow and I will be gone till Sunday afternoon. Tomorrow is Bible Study and then packing and traveling and once again my workout will be putting up the tent. Saturday lots of walking. Sunday, maybe some more walking, and coming home. We bought an air mattress so maybe I'll sleep some while we're away.
Next week I will be busy cleaning and getting up as much cat hair as I can because my family says they are coming Friday. So another busy week!
So you all have a good weekend!
