WE'RE BACK ONLINE!!

Oh gosh, now I have some serious catching up to do. I’ve been spending the past 5 days or so calling my service provider complaining and sounding like a broken record. "Is it fixed? How 'bout now?… Now?" I'm surprised they didn't blow up my site after that.

So where did we leave off? I’m working on the progress chart. So far we have five people who want to be involved, including me. I need just a little more information on two people (Gail, Martha check your email. Let me know if you didn’t get it because the email had gone down too)

I initially thought it might have been a blessing that I couldn’t post because then I didn’t have to mention that on Monday when I weighed myself I DIDN’T LOSE AN OUNCE! I know it was a combination of things. I hurt myself while I was walking with really heavy ankle weights it felt like I broke the arch in my foot. That curbed my exercising a bit. And it didn’t help that we ate out like four times. I can’t recall how many time exactly, maybe I’ve been traumatized by this site being down. See what happens when I’m left alone for a few days?!

Seriously though, I didn’t eat that bad while we were out and I didn’t eat that much. I no longer feel like I need to chow down on everything on the menu, splurge just because I’m eating out or even finish everything on my plate. I didn’t even take home my leftovers. I just didn’t go the extra lengths to have them leave off the dressing and substitute veggies for my fries, etc. I’m going to be a great maintainer once I reach my goal weight. :-)

This week I got off to a much better start. My foot is feeling fine and I was able to exercise today hardcore. The Firm tapes kick my butt and I have a bit of a crush on Rodney Yee (the yoga guy), he’s hot.

It’s good to be back! Thanks all for being patient! Chart to be posted shortly!

I went to the beach this weekend and had a great time but I don’t want to be destined to where this as my bathing suit forever!
