general notes

I am getting ready to pack and leave Cali. I have impressed myself that I have logged miles on the treadmill and pool. I have developed some pretty good habits. Although one night I did get to the pool and it was full of folks, so I went back to my room and ate ice cream... I have gotten off my butt and done something. I thought for sure I would spend a lot of time on-line this week or watching movies. Nope, I spent spare time working out.

Or going for healthy meals. I am gearing up for the next round of WW weight loss. Time to get back to meetings and start losing. Less to carry for the marathon.

I did watch some good old movies - which inspired me to keep walking on the treadmill. I did have a time I was working out and had to remind myself not to overdo it because I would have stay awake at work. Lots of working out, but also lots of napping. I am hoping that the extra workouts will make my normal workouts take less out of me.

I am so glad to be going home to see my hubby and kid. I really missed them.

YOUR HUBBY AND "KID" ARE AWAITING YOUR RETURN, TOO. MEATLOAF IS PLANNED FOR SUPPER, but TK DOESN'T WANT TO EAT 'TIL YOU GET THERE AT 7PM!!! POOR CURTIS WILL BE STARVING.

Great job on spending your spare time exercising! It's all a part of this wonderful lifestyle change we're all doing, and you're inspiring and motivating all the rest of the family!

Give TK lots of hugs. We can't wait to visit this summer!

The important things to remember are even those times when you choose (because it's ALWAYS your choice) not to exercise - when you went to the pool and all of those people were in it so you just went back to your room and ate ice cream - is those days come and go - not at all a big deal. But it is VERY important when you're food shopping to make the right choices so that when you decide to sit and eat instead of exercise it's not a big deal because you're eating the "right thing". That's awesome. Once you've made the change, it's not that big a deal - you just have to stick to it. I am super proud of you P...what you managed to do in Cali for the last week is really impressive and truly shows that you "want" it. Keep it up!!
