Cancelling Out One Another

Hi!
 
Well, I'm doing well with my exercise but my eating needs a little work;)  Yesterday, I was off work because of the snow and I made sure I worked out on the treadmill.  However, my husband took me to Copeland's last night and we halved the thin and crispy catfish platter and then halved the cheesecake and even halving it, that was a lot of food.  Then, I ate more later last night.  Good gosh!  So, this week I'm determined to do better on the eating and work a few more fruits into my diet.  I really need to do that so my next trip to the grocery store, I'm going to pick out a fruit that just really appeals to me.  If anyone has any suggestion, please let me know.  We can do this!!!

Hello, 2011. I have high hopes for you!!!

I haven't been on ep for a long time but I'm ready to get back on and interact with others that are wanting to be healthy and feel good.  I also want to be inspired and inspire others. 
 
About five weeks ago, I started the "Couch to 5K" program on my iphone.  It has really helped me to stay with an exercise program.  I got bronchitis right before Christmas so I didn't do it for about ten days and then decided it was ok to eat everything in sight.  LOL!  However, I got back to it on Saturday and will do it again today.  I like it because I get a day between workouts to recoup. 
 
I'm also on a mission to eat healthier because it makes you feel so much better.  We can do this!  It will make such a difference to motivate each other. 
 
Remember, you can't get across the sea by merely staring into the water.  That's a quote by Rabin "Somebody".  I can't spell his last name.  LOL!  Don't forget that ""Today Matters" as John Maxwell's book says.  Let's go for it! 

Lost Four Pounds:)

I'm very excited because I've lost four pounds since March 1st.  Wooo hooooo!  The Martha Beck book, "The Four Day Win" has helped me so much and so has "French Women Don't Get Fat".  They are both so inspirational!  50Dreamer and I meet regularly and that helps a lot too.  It is so nice to have a buddy in town that feels the same way I do and likes to go through the same books.  I hope everyone has an awesome weekend!
 
 

Writing Down New Goals

Tomorrow will be the last day of my second 4 Day Win (Martha Beck)!  I can't believe it's here already!  I'm feeling great and I love exercising in the morning so nothing gets in the way.  Tomorrow night, I will sit down and write down goals for my third 4 Day Win.  Have a great weekend! 

On My Way....

Tomorrow is the beginning of my second "Four Day Win".  For the next four days, I will:
 
Be the watcher and eat consciously.
 
Post on ep at least every other day.
 
Hula hoop for 15 minutes each day.
 
Walk on the treadmill for 7 1/2 minutes each day.
 
 
I hope everyone is having  a great week!

Lost Two Pounds! Wooo Hoooo!!!

I'm so excited!  I've lost two pounds!!!!!!  I need to be thinking about my next four day win.  I better get to bed because I'm going to exercise in the morning.  That works better for me because at night, I decide I'm too tired.  Everybody have a great day tomorrow! 

Day Two

Hi All~
 
I hope everyone is having a great Sunday!  I am!  I just got finished watching "Something's Gotta Give" with my husband.  There's not telling how many times I've seen that movie!  I think I'll read for awhile too.  Today the temps are in the thirties and we feel like we are out of the Arctic.  For the past few days, we've had temps with windchills of 15 below.  I don't know how some of you deal with that all of the time.  I wouldn't make it! 
 
I did my five minutes on the treadmill and 15 minutes on the hula hoop.  I'm not eating unless I'm hungry.  I think I'm going to try to exercise in the mornings because that increases my chance for success.  I tend to come up with excuses at night.  Enjoy your evening!  

Treadmill Anxiety....LOL!

Hi All,
 
I have been working on my 2010 plan today which just starts with mapping out what I will do for the next four days since I've read Martha Beck's book "The Four Day Win".  I am starting over with exercise and eating healthy and I'm having a hard time getting back on that treadmill.  So, I will have to do baby steps.  For the next four days, I will:
 
Be the watcher and eat consciously.
 
Hula hoop for 15 minutes each day
 
Walk on the treadmill for 5 minutes each day.
 
Post on ep each day. 
 
     

Hello, 2010!!!!!

Hi All!
 
I missed you all but was just going up and down on the scales and decided I wasn't getting on ep with all of my inconsistency.  50Dreamer and I have been meeting and talking for a long time going through "The Four Day Win" book by Martha Beck.  We really learned so much and then I forgot everything I learned!  But I'm back and ready to get with the program!  I know it's New Year's Resolution time but I'm determined to stick with this.  I don't have much weight to lose but my goal is to make exercise a habit, lose weight, and be consistent instead of the yo yo thing going on.  I wish everyone a great 2010!  This is OUR year!!!! 

The Four Day Win

I am pretty excited because I lost a pound on our trip to go visit my husband's stepdad!  That has NEVER happened!   For the first time ever, I was able to just have a snack for one meal each day and not feel deprived at all.  My friend, 50Dreamer, and I, meet about once a week to discuss our progress and any problems we are having.  Also, we talk about our game plans for the next week.  We are a great support for each other.  During our meetings, we discuss our strategy according to Martha Beck's book, "The Four Day Win".  The author was featured on Oprah awhile back and I can't tell you what a difference this book makes.  In Martha's words, "Being overweight isn't about being lazy.  It's about refusing to question the reasons for our anxiety."  Through Martha's book and prayer and reciting scripture when we get stressed, 50Dreamer and I are making progress-lots of progress.  "The Four Day Win" isn't a Christian book.  It is a book about all of the latest brain research and an easy plan about how to use that research to change your life.  Check it out!
