travel trials

Hi girls!  Dont have time to say much, im in the denver airport waiting to catch a plane home.  What a trip.  Went to Dallas Texas and to make a connecting flight we had 6 min to get to the other end of the airport.  Yeah we made it but our luggage didnt so we had to wearour same clothes for 2 days and we were working setting up a convention booth and sweat like pigs.  Not fun.  When we are doing a convention show we usually have breakfasf around 6am and dinner around 10pm with a few almonds in between so we are starving and have a hard time choosing healthy food at a nice resturant.  I did great with my choice one night and chose salmon and veggies.  The only bad part was my boss ordering a blooming onion AND parmasan fries to start.  She makes it so hard.  Good luck this week.  Time to board!

We NEED Sun!!

Hi girls!  When reading the blogs I see a familiar story on most of them.  WE NEED SOME SUN
My Dr. recommended supplementing with Vitamin D.  It's the new wonder vitamin you know.  It can really make a difference.  Just my 2 cents.  :)

Today has been a good day except Marty took my car to work and I hate to drive his truck, especially when it's raining, and I let that deter my plans for the gym.  Gosh I have a lot of voices either talking me into things or talking me out of things.  haha  Not really.  I'm just a little weak but working on it.  I will drive the truck next time.  

M&M's ugggggg

I don't know how I missed blogging for more than a week.  Time sure flies.  I think I best pick a day of the week and blog on that day.  I haven't read any blogs lately either.  So, I think a good day of the week is probably a Sunday for me even though today is Monday. :)  I'm really not very good at this blogging stuff.  I read everyone else's and think WOW wish I could express myself like that.

Well, the bad news is I'm still struggling with my mind talk keeping me from getting motivated.  I tend to beat myself up all the time.  For some reason I don't want to lose weight or stay on track or get some exercise because every time I set a goal or have a plan I go out of my way to sabotage myself and make sure I fail.  It's like if I self destruct I'm not so accountable.  I think I'm afraid if I eat right and exercise I still won't lose weight and I won't have an excuse.  I don't have the confidence that I can keep it up so I might as well give it up right away.  So, I need to talk nice to myself and boost my own moral because I am the one cutting me down.

The good news is I went to the Dr today for my annual physical and he was very happy about my weight loss.  I was down 10 lbs from May even though I weighed more than I thought I should.  It was in the middle of the day with my clothes on..... He gave me lots of kudos!!  He was happy with all my lab results so I'm doing something right.

I'm struggling BUT I'm making progress in the right direction so that makes me HAPPY!

This week I need to get back into the Gym.  I started off gung howe and then the weather turned really cold and started raining and (excuses) I didn't want to leave my house.  It's kinda funny.  When you get to my age, over 60, you get this mind set that you can do anything you want because you have paid your dues.  That thinking has been disastrous for me.     Pretty much makes me think I can eat what I want, sit and watch TV or play computer games all day and that is ok.  NOT  So time to get this lazy butt out of my chair.

My husband eats a lot of M&M's (daily).  They are in our pantry all the time.  I can go ages without touching them and then all of a sudden I can't leave them alone.  That is where I am at right now so I plan on making him move them to some place a little less convenient.

So my plan for the week is to MOVE and leave the M&M's alone!!

Have a great week ladies.  Now I'm off to read some blogs.
