  • Hello Ravenclaw. Good to hear you are feeling better psb13. We just finished our Christmas preparations today. Plans for a big Christmas dinner that I am hoping ot get through without overeating to much. Here are a few photos of my run in the snow yesterday.
  • When it came time to exercise today I just could not get motivated to do another indoor workout. So even though the ground is still incredibly muddy from the last storm with a fresh layer of about 4 inches of fresh snow from todays storm, I bundled up and went for a two mile run. It was a little cold at first but it turned…
  • Hello Ravenclaw. Well done cherubcrnp. Impressive amount of house points for Twifan5. I would like to get my exercising up about 3 times what I do now and those of you who have so many house points help me to stay motivated.
  • It does seem there are a lot more temptations this week. I have avoided sugar cookies and high calorie restaurant food and candy allready and we have even got to Christmas dinner. I am determined to make my december goal though so I am really focusing on doing things right this week.
  • Happy Sunday Ravenclaw. Welcome godricshollow. Checking in with 124 house points. 7 OWLS for food 6 OWLS for spirit 5 OWLS for exercising and 2 pounds lost for a final weigh in this week of 188 lbs. I almost over did the food last night. Thankfully I turned down the last peice of pizza that was offered to me, though it was…
  • Today was a strange day and I hope it does not wreck to much havoc on my weigh in tomorrow. I hope everyone who is sick gets feeling well soon. Christmas is a miserable time to be sick.
  • I can't believe how quickly this year has gone by. Hope you have a nice break.
  • Disaster averted. I came home from work craving sweets and my wife surprised me with a nice healthy stir fry. It did a fantastic job of squelching the sweet tooth and the success of eating right motivated me to push myself into an intense workout.
  • It usually is down in the desert part of the state, but up here in the mountains it can get pretty cold. I have seen it get down to -20 at my place. we recently had a snow storm that hit us with 18" of snow too. Not ideal outdoor weather, but it is fun to bundle up and play on the four wheelers in the snow.
  • Good morning Ravenclaw. I did a little binge eating too last night. I was under my calorie goal by almost 600 so I had a big bowl of ice cream and ended up 54 calories over. I know that ice cream is not the healthiest way to take on calories but it sure tasted good after my workout. I will need to be smarter on my calorie…
  • Good morning Ravenclaw. With the combination of snow, ice and mud my favorite activity of trail running becomes nearly impossible this time of year. Unfortunatly when the weather turned cold I stopped running and let my eating habits get out of control and gained 20 lbs, so I am getting back on track and hoping this…
