Just a little happy. Ok, a lot.
Things have been good. Food is not as ideal and that is just fine. I am drinking plenty of water, getting some high fiber foods in, fruits and veggies, and exercising. I did not work out as much this weekend, but that was okay, because I wanted to have some good energy for Christmas things…. decorating, cookie making (YUM.. gingersnaps…never have made them before and I had a desire….but I made them for games day at a friends), wrapping presents, relaxing, enjoying the weekend!
We were to go to some friend’s place for games afternoon on Sunday, but they are breaking up I think. He came over to our place instead of us going there. So instead of high fat foods, I quickly cut up a huge plate of veggies (hummus in the middle), fruits, other light snacks and then we also had the decorated ginger snaps from the previous night. We had some fun I think playing games, though it is a stressful time for him. That has got to be tough when you make plans to go on a long trip with your partner at Christmas and then you breakup before. Yikes. What can ya say, *hugs*. Hugs are best. NOT happy about this… very sad actually. But love hurts sometimes, this we all know.
This weekend was reasonable. George has left the vicinity…. *does a happy dance* …and I will appreciate his visit next month. But as for now, I am actually down one pound. Very loosely recorded the points and recorded the food, but it was quick short hand… too much time for so much more. This week I do more activity… variety and the muscle kind…lol
I have to run and get started on the other part of my day. SO much to do and I have BON JOVI tonight. I am so freaking excited!!! *SsCcReAaMm*
Love you all. Read blogs this AM and I thank you for your words. Keep up all the hard work ladies/guys. We can do our best which does not have to be perfect. But can we keep one thing in mind? R-E-S-P-E-C-T !!!! Let’s respect ourselves by saying good things to ourselves, nourishing our precious bodies and moving moving moving to keep things working as they were meant to work. Love you all. *hugs*
Bon Jovi….that ROCKS…I hope you have a good time and glad you were able to make your weekend good
Living on a Prayer, we’re halfway there…
Have a great time! Love the veggie plate with hummus. Will keep RESPECT in my head, now, too. Keep that happy going - that probably is the best thing for health!
ps - check out my Tuscan Beans Recipe post.
Have fun at Bon Jovi!! You sound so happy, I love it! Like your snack ideas, too! I have to try hummus!
Maybe I should re-think the hummus. I tried it and didn’t care much for it. It reminded me of dirt, not that I have ever tried to eat dirt. LOL. Silly me! I hope you have a good time at the Bon Jovi show. I was obsessed with them when I was younger.
(perk) Bon Jovi? As in concert?
I wanna goooooooooooooooooooooooooooo (whine)
Purleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeezzzzzz (whines some more)
Have a GREAT time and I expect a fully report missy. LOL
I’m right there with you and promise to do my bestest this week and respect myself and honor what foods I give my body.
Love and hugggggggggggs,
Shan
OMG, I feel so bad for your friend. Love hurts, confuses, makes us feel great, etc. etc. This holiday season is probably going to be tough on him. He’s lucky to have friends like you guys that are there for him. Great job on the food and exercise. You’re doing awesome even if it isn’t perfect.
I love Bon Jovi! Enjoy and think of us! LOL!! Glad you had a good weekend.
Ok, I seriously thought GEORGE was a person, a real person…I didn’t realize TOM had an alias–LOL!!
Speaking of friends and break-ups…I made an ass out of myself today when I kept asking a friend about her long time boyfriend….except that they have been broken up for over 6 months!! Argh!! Pretty embarrassing I may add!
So sorry for your friend and the breakup. He’s sooooooooo lucky to have you as a friend. Hugs..yup Hugs are the bestest medicine ever!!
Have fun at Bon Jovi!!! Enjoy this wonderful holiday season!! You deserve the best Jennifer!!
Enjoy the concert. Have a great time. I love hummus. So good with carrot sticks. What a lousy time to break up. Gives you something wonderful to remember, huh? Hugs, Marge
