OK that is the song on the radio in the store right now and they have it turned up loud enough so that I can hear it in the office and...well it is what I am singing right now. How can you not sing along with that song?
Well I didnt go to the gym last night. Instead I cut my grass, just like Gwynn. I spent 90 minutes out there cutting thru that jungle. I have cut the front yard twice but this was the first time this year I have cut the back and boy it was high. I am glad I have a privacy fence and noone could see how tall it was. But the good news is that I burned 800 calories while doing it (thanks TATUMSMOM). The bad news is that the scale didnt move, URGH. My scale hasnt moved in a week now. I know that I set 155 as my original goal but dang. Did I not send the memo to my body that I wanted to lose another 10 pounds? Does it not understand that I have more fat to lose? Maybe I should sent it an email and remind it.
Anyway, not much going on today. My DD has an orthodontic appointment this afternoon so I am outta here soon, yeah!

A classic!
..now i have a sudden urge to listen to it on youtube!!! damn. lol. You're such a bad influence ;)
800 pounds cutting grass??!! Woah!! Looks like I'll be mowing the lawn when I get a house!! LOL Doubt my future hubby would mind..hihi..I'm such a geek =)
Give your body some time to lose more weight..i mean..damn woman, look at all the weight you've lost so far!!
Looks like it was lawn mowing day yesterday!! :) I burned 388 calories according to caloriesperhour.com. Not too shabby huh? Cutting grass does beat the same old same old exercise but it is not something I enjoy doing. I cut it because it has to be done. Actually I'll tell you a little secret. I was 34 years old the first time I ever cut grass. I'm telling you I'm a spoiled little princess. LOL!!
Oh and your iPod playlist. Stay is one of my favorite songs!!!
Thanks for posting to my blog, fellow Hoosier :) Not sure which Franklin, IN, you're from, but either way you're a couple hours south of us most likely. Hope the scale moves again soon for you, but you've done amazing so far!!! Congratulations!
See, now you got me singin' it! I adore that song too! And as for Chantal having to listen to it on YouTube, I'm telling you, that girl is addicted to YouTube! I think we need to have an intervention!!
Patience with the scale, my dear. Maybe it's time to shake up your workout a little bit?
that song. And you just made me wish that I had a yard to mow. 800 calories is amazing! Just remember you had quite a few weeks where those pounds just feel off recently. Your body is probably just playing catch up. Give it some time. With activities like that it will come off.
If your memo to yourself works could you copy and paste it to me?.....LOL Congrats on your lose so far. The last few seem to be the hardest . Just think you could be in Maintance SQQN...
I love yard work... Great calorie burning in that department.
