Yesterday, I climbed 28 flights of stairs. Amazingly, I'm still here to write this down. My buns this morning are sore. This morning, I woke up with my new resolve to lose half as much weight as my husband. I worked out on the bike for 45 minutes and did my core exercises.I must stay away from the candy in my office. I must tell myself that each mini tootsie roll is empty calories. I have made a lot of bad choices when it comes to food. But the most disasterous choices are when I'm ...
Getting Healthy with my Hubby
Wednesday, November 12th 2008
I have a competitive edge to me. I wouldn't say I'm super competitive, but on a scale of 1-10, with one being couldn't care less about anyone else and 10 being someone who wants a gold medal in the Olympics, I'm probably about a 5. . . or 6.Here is my point. My husband and I have been making changes for the past 2 weeks to lose weight. He's lost 14 pounds, I've lost 5 pounds. Working out with my husband has been a very trying thing for me. We have the bodybugg. . . I'm supposed to bur...
Bump in the Road

This weekend, followed by yesterday, was not the best. I did exercise on Saturday and Sunday. But Sunday, I also sat and watched TV. This lazy lifestyle lead its way into Monday. I did not get up at 0600 and exercise AND I ate a lot of candy. I'm sure half of my calories were from candy. I did not even bother to log any of it.But today, I feel better. I did get up and exercise. I'm back on track and feel physicially good. I still have my goal of losing 7 pounds by Thanksgiving. B...

Yesterday was a long day. I woke up at 0300 to take my son to Camp Williams. The drive was quiet as my son slept. It was beginning to snow, which added to the quietness. When we got to Camp Williams, the guard told me that I needed to slow down (I was going 14 mph through the serpentine - speed limit is 10 mph), then the guard told my son that there was still plenty of time and to keep his ass down. That last comment made me laugh. It was about the only good thing in dropping my son off....
Election Day

Tomorrow, my son will leave for Indiana for some training before he is deployed to Afghanistan. He was up early this morning and I could hear him bring up his gear and putting it into the Rodeo. He left at 0600.I stayed in bed for about 15 minutes after that, just thinking. Then, I dragged myself out of bed to go to the gym. I asked my husband if he wanted to go with me, but he said no. He likes to workout during his lunch hour. It can be so easy for a man. Go workout, sweat, show...
