Watched the Tae Bo instructional video last nite while clipping my toenails - does that strike anyone as ironic? HA HA HA! Visitation was cancelled this am so the incidental walking I was gonna do fell thru - guess I gotta go visit Billy and see how much I sweat :)

(It's funny I was watching Celebrity Fit Club and they say this in one breath and in the next say "your weight loss goal is 5 lbs".) ...I seem to sabbatoge towards the end of the week, negating and gains (or actually losses) I've made. I have to take a look at that. Working 5 days in a row might be harder than I think. :)

{{{{{{{{{{Tweety}}}}}}}} I hear ya re Celeb fit club - funny (not) -

I do the self sabotage thing too, when my wt goes down i relax on my next meal - which is dangerous because 1 meal usually leads to 2 relaxed meals, to just a little treat, and so forth -

It was my oldest dtr's 16th B-day, we had a party, and I didn't eat any of the bad stuff we had out for her guests.

I actually ended up losing a pound for the week, after all- yay! Pretty good, considering I'm bloated :).

Hey, good for you, that is major (re the BD party)! And I was right, I officially started my period - even a few lymph glands swollen! which does happen sometimes. Yep I had a mammo, last Mon to be exact... So anyway - I can eat what I want this week. Kidding. I look forward to when it's done and I see that I did lose SOMEthing.
