When you fall, you have to get right back up.

So, I went ahead and worked out on the Friday that I said would be hard to make myself go. Then I missed all of the next week and Monday of the week after that. TTOTM was really rough. But, as soon as it was finally over, I started working out again. So, it was two work outs the week of Halloween, and I worked out 3x this week. I need to either start going 4 or 5x a week, or maybe start walking on the days I don't go to Curves. I could go to the Rec Center, and if I don't want to pay for an actual membership, just pay $2 per visit, and use their walking track. That way, I could walk after work, but not worry about it already being dark.

Still doing pretty good on the food. I've indulged a couple of times and had either a burger or pizza, but for the most part, it's been much better choices. I'll be due to be weighed again on the 16th, so I'll see if I'm actually doing ok then or not.

I think that just by making the positive changes you are doing alright. Of course it is best to work out as many days as possible, but twice in a week is better than none in a week. So keep up the good work. I'm rooting for you. *smooch*

Good job Arkie. I can relate. I have those weeks myself sometimes. The important part is that you get back up.

How's the phen doing for you? I'm glad you re-motivated yourself. Sometimes that's the hardest part! Good job.

Tummy, the Phen is still working, just not as much. At first, I wasn't feeling hungry at all, but now I do - but it really depends on how much I have at breakfast.

Breakfast is the most important meal they say. I'm not a huge breakfast eater.

Bravie,
the thing about breakfast for me, is I can't eat very early in the morning. I start throwing up just talking/thinking about food if I haven't been up long enough. Seriously. I need at least an hour and a half of being up before anyone should mention food around me.
