While I was posting yesterday about YMCA, I forgot that I am going to Disney tonight to Mickey's Merry Christmas Party. My husband felt that putting my daughter in daycare and then playing with her friend all day including Disney at night would be too much for her. The party continues well into midnight but we're not staying there that late. We are leaving later than my daughter's bedtime, so my hubby want her well and rested for the party.
So YMCA will have to wait until Thursday. I will find some other ways to exercise around the house plus I will get my walking tonight at Disney. Disney is a great place to exercise if you avoid all their tempting foods.
I'm back to 139.5 today and thanks to Precious for her water tip. She told me how chugging down water can really help move the scale down. It worked! Thanks Precious! I'll be doing the same today. She also met her goal weight yesterday which I think is awesome!
I got my Title Nine catalog the other day and I love the sweater they displayed on the front page.
But it cost $109. That's way out of my budget. But I'm keeping my fingers cross that it will go on sale near the springtime.

Pretty!
I'm loving the sweater =) And....yup! Water does wonders when it comes to losing weight. Gets rid of all the bad stuff and prevents water retention that can be caused by A - Not drinking enough and B - Too much salt.
I'm happy that you're seeing a difference from the water intake (although..we can't deny our more-frequent visits to the bathroom) It's still worth it!
More frequent trips to the bathroom equal more walking time. So there's ANOTHER benefit! Glad the scale dropped a little this morning! Keep up the great work! Enjoy the Disney Party!
What a cute sweater!! I think I would look like a giant flower in it though.
I love the fact that you can hop over to Disney whenever you feel like it! You will definitely get a lot of exercise walking around.
Glad you got some extra water in. I drank 160 oz yesterday!
HIIT is High Intensity Interval Training. While doing cardio, It's where you get your rate heart up into Zone 3 or 4 and then bring it back down again to Zone 1 or 2, back up, back down. I usually do 45 seconds to a minute pushing myself all out - increasing speed and resistance on the crosstrainer - and then bring my heart rate back down for a minute or two by slowing down and lowering the resistance. You burn more calories that way, plus don't have to work out as long. Hope that makes sense.
I love the sweater but the price is a little high. Have you tried OldNavy.com or the Gap? They have alot of items that you posted above. Hey thanks for the shout out! I love helping when I can. I am so jealous that you are going to disney tonight. We just left there and I loved the trip. I can't imagine living there. I hope you have a fantabolous time!
I was trying to think of something else to say, but all I could think was I'm so jealous that you are going to Disney World tonight!! But your blog is not about me! LOL So, I'm here to tell you that the sweater above will more than likely be marked down in January! It's cute, though!
Back to me! LOL I honestly do not think its humanly possible for me to drink any more water than I usually do!!! I drink soooo much water that I worry that I'm going to float away. :) But, I add an extra glass in today for good measure. For those of you who do not drink enough water, loading up on it would no doubt cause a good result on the scale. Like it did for you! WTG!
Thanks for stopping by my blog and taking time to comment, I appreciate it! That Disney party sounds like such fun! Have a great time. Congrats on your weight loss to date....you are awesome! So...what were the words of wisdom regarding water that Precious shared with you? I know I don't drink enough.....too much coffee! Have a great time at Disney!
I LOVE Disney - can't wait to return in October of 2008! Supper at Epcot sounds DIVINE. You must have a season pass, right? We've never been to Christmas there - only Haloween.
Congrats on getting all that water in. I know it can be tricky at times, especially on the weekend.
It's wonderful that your hubby enjoys walking with you. How sweet!
I love Disney but it's been a long while since I've been there!! Give Mickey a hug for me ;) .. Have fun!! I love the sweater, that's really pretty and pricey! Yep, the water really helps! I'm glad it helped make a difference for you.
I hope ya'll have a great time tonight!!! So much fun just going to Mickey's Christmas Party...
Your little one will love it. You are right, it is a great walking workout. Just leave the tempting foods alone.......think money......every penny you save by not buying foods can be spent on the sweather when it goes on sale. Got It!!! OK
Blessings to you for continued success into the 130's and for much health and happiness. Chargail
I like it! I love pink and brown though! So what is this disney party? I guess you must have a ton of Disney stuff down there in Florida. It sounds wonderful.
She also met her goal weight yesterday which I think is awesome!
