I'm surprised I did that

Hey everyone, How are you all doing? Having a good week with your efforts? I need to go catch up on a few blogs.

I've been dealing with this cold. Tuesday and Wednesday were by far the worst days, and so while I did eat healthy, I didn't work out.

Last night dinner ended up being higher in points than I'd intended. Okay, I don't think it was actually as high as I ended up saying it was, but I think better to over calculate than under. So I dipped into a bit of my flex points. Problem with this is that it was only Thursday, and they need to last me through next Tuesday! So what did I do... I worked out! Even my DH was impressed and surprised. Around 9 PM I popped one of Planet Earth DVDs into the DVD player and hopped on the eliptical trainer. It was a good work out too! I feel a lot better for having done. I'm going to really have to try and do that a few times on the weekend.

GOOD FOR YOU

Hi, Carole!  I'm sorry you've been sick, but glad that the worst is over.    Just be careful and don't take a "backset."

You did great - doing the workout to burn some of those extra calories you ate!!!    You, know, we really can do this if we keep on trying.

You aren't alone in thinking you won't lose much this week.  I was feeling really low before, but I'm okay now!!!!  Thanks to my friends here at EP.  It really does help to have friends who care.

You'll do well if you're just patient with yourself.  Life happens to all of us, so we understand.

I'll be checking back on you.  Good wishes!   -  MB
