Back to the basics

So, I feel like I am getting practiced up for the holidays by using the American Thanksgiving to test out my will power. Craziness I tell ya. Well one thing is for sure, in the last couple years I have been so much more aware of what I am putting in my mouth and I thank WW for this. I really would be lost with out the idea of portions. But a day like yesterday all reason seemed to go out the window. Well I am reasonable more often then not and I want so much for myself so I start new. There is nothing like the challenge of a weekend to get you revved up! lol Then there are the Roughriders (Saskatchewan’s football team) who have made it to the Grey Cup. Now I am a hockey fan not a football fan, but I am psyched. Very neat. So I am off to workout and then get busy on making Christmas presents. Not sure what to make guys when it comes to beads. ??? I may actually have to step foot into the malls WHICH ARE ALREADY CRAZY BUSY !!!

After a crap couple of days, LOVE my potty mouth this fine Saturday AM, I started out with a healthy breakfast and am now off to work out on the elliptical for as long as I can. I can never go long after a heavy food day the day before, but we shall see how it goes.

Have a great weekend everyone.

    Ah me too [messed up last night for dinner]. But I’ve been doing well for the most part so I won’t be too hard on myself and I’m glad to read that you’re not going to be too hard on yourself either. I think letting ourselves feel guilty over what happened the night before only makes us overeat on a new day when we don’t have too. Cheers!

    Love your list. And the idea of a new start. I did something I never do. When my last guest left Thurs, at midnight, I scraped, stacked and rinsed the dishes and left tha whole mess to be dealt with yesterday. I finished the scrubbing about noon. Hey, the world didn’t stop turning. My youngest son was the guest who stayed so long. We watched a football game together and talked. At the age of 48 he is finding the empty nest a little daunting. He has raised those boys mostly on his own with the help of two grannies. Now he is alone for the first holiday. But we still have each other. I know he misses his Dad, too. Have a super weekend and may I use your list? Love, Marge

    WW has been my lifesaver. It definetely helps keep the portions in control and give boundaries without the deprivation. You are doing good with great goals!! Keep up the good work!!
