A slow and rainy weekend

I watched the French Open today (7AM) and I absolutely love Rafael Nadal (won in 3 straight sets), but also I really think Roger Federer is one of a kind and a terrific human being. Nadal is so hot! Anyways sometimes winning when there is not much of a challenge is not always the ideal. A challenge where you have to really really work at things is so much better and I hear rewarding.

Every time I have a not so fine day for my intake I realize now that it is just one day. I am tracking my points for a while because it is in me to test myself and show a little discipline and moderation. The best thing I did Friday was to decide to track my points. So after 2 days my extra points are gone! Ha! Twas a terrific weekend in all ways. Played Twister, did some shopping, did some reading (no studying), walked to the movies in the rain with my sweetie (Indiana Jones), watched Sex in the City (the series) watched and listened to the rain, made some amazing cookies (small batches are good!) and relaxed. Oh yeh and on the day where I used up the majority of my extra points, I had a terrific workout day of intense cardio and strength training (9 points of exercise). I woke up feeling amazing!

So the next 5 days I will be consuming 25 points per day. Life is good. I just require light boundaries sometimes. There is a type of personality that works well with WW and these type programs. There is no denial, but you do have to use your head a little. It is so nice to say “no thank you” with confidence then to accept and eat something mindlessly. A good place….

So why Twister? I had to play it after Jon Bon Jovi was a guest in Sex in the City and was playing it with Sarah Jessica Parker. Of course they collapsed on each other and yadda yadda…. Note to self, no playing Twister when I do Hard Body Yoga the day before and I do not stretch before the game because twisting myself up like a pretzel is scary stuff - felt like I may scream with the pain of holding those positions….hehe Fun times! What a masicist I am!

Ahh…. Have a great day and week Everyone. Simple… eat healthy or healthier and move more, for us! I will try and do my best :)
