This is THE hardest thing I've ever had to do in my life. EVER. But, I do not want to resort to weight loss surgery. I'm too young. I'm physically fit. That's just not the option for me.

It's hard ladies, but we can do this. Stay encouraged.
It is most certainly the hardest thing I've ever done. Shoot, the hardest thing I DO, fuhget done, cuz clearly I'm not done. BUT, I am down 4lbs. I haven't been writing stuff down like I should, but I'm still conscious of what I'm eating and whether or not I'm getting exercise. I like the DVD I posted about. It's a decent workout. But I miss walking. I'm glad it's nice out today so I can get my steps on.

My new challenge? Push-ups. I can barely do one. Sad, I know. It's what I'ma work on the most. My upper body will love me for it. lol

As far as juicing, I LOVE IT!!!! I don't like cleaning my juicer, so I haven't juiced in months, but I miss it. I was just tellin' my manfriend we have to get back into it because otherwise I'm not cooking/eating enough vegetables in a day. I honestly felt better while I did it. But it could be because I was eating so healthy and exercising regularly while I was juicing. I'm sure it wasn't the juice all by itself. But who really knows, right?

And remember, don't trip over the holidays. They come, they go. If you gain, so what. Enjoy the good food and family time. Take a walk after dinner. See a movie and walk around the mall. Like ladygreek said, park far away everywhere you go on Black Friday to burn off what you ate on Thursday. This is the ONE time per year that I purposefully do not pay attention to what I eat. I don't gorge like I used to, but I EAT on Thanksgiving!!! Don't let what you do (or don't do) over the holidays dictate your being on or off the bandwagon.

Cuz I'ma tear UP some macaroni and cheese Thursday. I can't wait.

KimL, I'm with you!!!!!

Hmmm... this SP deal... I see I'ma hafta see what it's all about. Is it like Fitday with more bells and whistles?
