Back to it!

Well, I'm back, and not any lighter.  But I did maintain throughout the holidays.  That's always good!  But this week I have a new resolve, so I think I will see some progress.  I did the FIRM Upper Body Sculpt on Monday, the FIRM Lower Body Sculpt on Tuesday, rested on Wednesday, did the FIRM Maximum Cardio Burn with Allie on Thursday, and today I plan on completing the FIRM Tough Tape 2.  I need to get more cardio in, but I don't know what I'm going to do about that.

My mom and sister are coming to visit the end of February.  I love them both, but they tend to be a bit critical.  I would like to lose 10 more lbs. before they come.  I know I shouldn't worry about what they think, but at least it's making me work harder, right?  A few years ago I was visiting at Christmas, and I was at my highest weight at about 210.  A woman in one of the stores hadn't seen me in probably 30 years, and said, "You look just like your mom!"  I told my mom what she had said, and my mom said, "We don't look alike!", in a tone like, "you're fat and I'm not, so we can't possibly look alike!"  I don't know if that's what she meant, but I took it that way, and it hurt!  I guess we all have our family issues.  I guess that's why I'm glad I live a thousand miles away!

My husband and I have been enjoying the Phoenix Suns basketball games.  They are just so fun to watch!  We go to almost all of the home games.  I have a very bad ritual when I go to the games, but I'm convinced that's the only way they will win!  I always get a Peter Piper personal pizza.  That is the best pizza in the world!  The one time we went out to eat before the game, and I didn't get a pizza, they lost to the Washington Wizards!  So, I guess I have to take one for the team!

Happy losing, everyone, and keep up the good work!  I'll try to do better at blogging.  I guess I think I never have anything interesting to say!
