Good for you! Life is still in the way for me. We went to Tyler today to do Mother's Day with DMIL. It was a nice day, but now I'm working on "homework." I'll spend a big portion of tomorrow on it, too. Only 13 more days --- I'm ready. Actually, if I can get through this week it's a pretty steep downhill run from here on out.

LOL!
I can tell, without a doubt, you are a woman on COUNT DOWN!!
(and I can certainly see why!)

well...our weather is back in the *can* again....grrrr! Drizzly, gray, and dang near chilly, with a N wind. Bah! So add no walk on top of a Mom's day meal of Chinese take out, and I'm sure the scales will have something really hateful to say in the morning! I didn't even bother to track it, as it would have been an obscene amount of carbs, no doubt !LOL! Sometimes a mom just has to stop and smell the roses...or, as the case may be, eat a little stir-fry!
Tomorrow I will have new focus! Also a dental appt that will most likely render me a non-chewer for several hours! snort!

be well, Ju!

After a brief thunder scare where Lexie went to her closet shelter, I convinced her that we could indeed walk this afternoon. I probably should have been grading papers, but....... In my defense, I did work until 12:30 last night on a review for my AP kids and have spent a couple of hours this evening getting some grades I did yesterday posted. I am seriously afraid that I have lost one of the hardcopies of my gradebook. I have a couple of grade columns that I can't find. Oh well, I guess I could just go with my grandmother's theory and give them all 100. they probably could use it.

Two bummers--- rain and a bad dentist trip. Sorry it was a bad day.

I went to yoga this afternoon. The type class I take is pretty physicall intensive and happens in a very warm room which leads to SWEAT. I figure even though I didn't hit 10,000 steps, I went one better by working up a major sweat.

yeah....a good ole sweaty workout would certainly seem to be just as good, IMO.

The only good thing I can think of as far as my not getting to walk is, that little twingie heel pain and hip pain seems to have gone away. I hope it stays gone when I start walking again...whenever that will be!!!

it's early, but here's my #s for the day.(if I get hungry, I'll prolly have a Tbsp of PNB before bed)
1236 cal
58g fat
81g pro
93g carb
32g fiber
61g net carb
down half a pound this morning. and yes, I do believe I lost the same stinkin' half pound last week!! LOL!

have a good evening, Ju!

OMG! I went out to girl's night dinner tonight and I am miserable. We went to Olive Garden and in the scheme of what I used to eat, I ate a small amount. But, in the scheme of the amounts I eat now, it must have been a lot . I am stuffed--- but the Italian margarita with a side car of amaretto could have had lots to do with that, too. Therefore........ no tracking for the day!

Geez, the body is fickle. I go out to eat one time and put on 2.5 lbs overnight. It scares me to death to imagine what will happen being in Nebraska for a week. I have absolutely no control over what they prepare ---- but I do have control over what I eat. I think the best plan may be to essentially skip dinner. During the dinner service, I'll go get a snack to eat later. They serve dinner way earlier than I normally eat. Instead of stuffing in a meal when I'm not hungry, I'll get something of an appropriate amount, take it back to the dorm and heat in the microwave. I've really gotten good at avoiding snacks, maybe if I continue to stay away from them, and stay away from the dining hall I'll be more successful than I have been in past years. I do not want to gain the 5-10 pounds that we all seem to put on while we are there.

yeah, Ju, I agree about the body being fickle! I can just LOOK at someone's dessert and the scales go up 2-3 lbs. It really stinks, yanno?? But, I guess the good thing about that is, it gets me back on track PDQ!!!

I'm betting you'll do just fine in NE this year. You are in the LC *zone* both physically and mentally. You've done a really good job of wrapping your head around the finer points of maintenance thus far!!

Me....not so much, but hoping to change that as of today!

Lots of steps doing some shopping today. Should have come home earlier and done a real walk, but the lure of the sale sign and the need for pants and shirts that fit was just too much. I made a major score at T. J. Maxx. Found some great polos on the sale rack at Target, too. Oh well, yesterday's steps more than made up for any deficits today.
