I just ate 1/2 a pizza...
and it was sooo good! Lou Malnati's spinach delivered all the way from Chicago to Nashville! And, given the 500 cals in cardio this morning, 600 calories for lunch was no big deal! I still have another 600+ for the rest of the day. I love exercise calories :)

I was looking forward to eating today...
But the car is not running so no way to make it to Zumba and the pool for my extra 1000 calories of food I usually get on Saturdays. And looks like it is going to be out of commission for several weeks (or most of the winter depending) so it looks like a long winter of being rather hungry on most days :( Not to mention the…

For example, in jumping jacks, certain yoga poses, sleeping (trying to figure out my resting rate :) ), stretching, etc I…

Dog's Home!
Hey all! Miss Annabelle came home tonight! She is doing as well as can be expected considering she had a bullet pulled out of her 4 days ago! And the vet was wonderful - he even gave us a really great price considering how much she had done. :flowerforyou: Don't know that we will ever be able to find out who did it - more…

Someone shot my dog
Anyway - just looking for some well wishers to keep her in your thoughts. My dog got out of my yard today and when I found her 15-20 minutes one of the neighbors (don't know who) had shot her in the hip with a 22. She had surgery now we just wait to see if it gets infected. It tore through her bladder and two parts of…

What should you eat at BLANK restaurant
I stumbed across this site: http://www.healthydiningfinder.com/site/diners/findrestaurants/viewall.php Don't know much about it or its accuracy, etc, but it looks like you pick a restaurant and it will list info on a couple "healthy(ier) choices" on the menu. So if you are going out check this site!

next top model
I only watched part of one episode this year - and really only stoped on it becuase I noticed one not stick thin competetor. I saw on People that she ended up winning! The sad part... they are making such a big deal about her being "full-sized" ... she is a size 8-10!!! (Though I had guessed a much higher size standing…

Foolproof Diet Trick

Fiber
So I read that you should have about 25 g of fiber a day. I checked my nutritional report for the last 90 days and I have only hit the fiber goal ONCE!!! (Providing that 25 g is an accurate goal... it was on the internet - it must be true!)

Got What I Deserve...
So the neighbor had a little get together yesterday - ribs, potatoes, choc cake... the whole 9 yards. I managed to not pig out too much, but definitely ate way too much and NOT the right things :wink: That evening I took my 20 lb son and the dog on a 5 mile walk, so I ended up only over on my calories about 300 - 400. Not…

Water
When it says 8 cups of water every day - does it mean cups like 8 oz or cups like glasses? Some places I read that a "Cup" (aka glass) is 4 or 6 oz. I think here it refers to an actual 8 oz cup but just double checking. I usually don't keep track of that but I know that I don't drink enough water right now - mainly becuase…
