Wednesday as I was driving home from work, I passed a bank and it said 101 degrees.  It was humid, the air was thick and it was definitely hot enough to turn on the central air.  Storms came through and the temperature dropped like a bucket.  As I was driving to work Thursday morning, the temperature was 51 degrees and it didn’t get much warmer...

I have been completely forgetful of my bagel Wednesday, but was glad to be reminded when I saw Lori’s birthday post.  Now she’s the same age as me – go 43! 😀 Breakfast was a spinach egg white cheddar jalapeno bagel.  Happiness.  On a plate.  10 Points Plus. All the balls in the air that were left yesterday at work, finally landed and I got...

I had every intention of going to the gym yesterday morning, but my body was like “um, hello?  you are 43 years old and you can’t work out an hour and 45 minutes the day before and expect to get up today.”  I wasn’t sore at all, I just think with working out before work, working, biking at lunch, working, then going out to eat...

I had a work appointment at 9:00 that was 1/2 a mile from my gym – score!  I ended up running 29:00 minutes for 2.5 miles, then cooled down for 6 minutes.  Then did 5 minutes of abs on the ball, stretched and did 20 minutes of upper body strength training.  A nice 60 minute workout. 😀  I even had time to dry my hair...

What a great weekend we had!  While hot, we were able to survive without turning on the central air – even though most of the weekend I walked around the house with boob sweaty shirts. 😀  How’s that for a Monday morning visual! The last couple days of work were so hectic.  By Friday night I was ready to just relax.  Tony and I sat...

I had such a busy day yesterday, but whenever I had a comment that said “go weigh in, face the music, be responsible, etc. etc.” it made my decision clear to just go in and weigh, and if I gained, that would give me the necessary motivation to stay on track this week. Well guess what?  I am a loser! It’s only .6, but I’ll...

Work was so busy yesterday, that I barely had time to eat breakfast, let alone take a good picture of it.  While I don’t like plain Greek yogurt, I love it when I add 1/8 of a cup of sugar free pancake syrup – sounds gross, but its good!  On the side was a 1.5 ounce rye bread breakfast sammie – breakfast comes in at...

I think it was all your good vibes yesterday, and the fact that it was a short work week, but when I called last night to see if I had to go back for jury duty I was told that there will be no more jury trials this week, and they thanked me for my service – woot!  Now let’s see if it will be...

Since I didn’t have to be at the court house until 9:00, I went to the gym beforehand and ran at an easy 4.5 pace for 40 minutes.  Wow, just taking the long weekend off of exercising really makes a difference.  I had plenty of time to work out too, but just didn’t.  And since our computer was shut down because of storms, I didn’t...
