Goodmorning guys and gals! Looks like we have yet another snow day and a day off for the kids . I swear at this rate they will be in school until August! One week off and back they go! lol. It hasnt been too bad so far, so keep your fingers crossed! Speeking of appendages, the toe isnt too bad today. Nothing I cant work through pain wise. I have set up a pretty decent exercise goal for today: 30 mins bike, 30 mins treadmill (1 min. run 1 min. walk etc.) 60 pushups, 60 lunges,100 crunches. Tracey and I set a goal of 29 points daily and at least 30 mins of exercise. I am going to still shoot for at least an hour though. Tracey said she watched Oprah yesterday and Dr. Oz was on; He says 30 mins or hard exercise is just as good as an hour... So, we shall see! I am also setting a goal for myself of no eating after dinner for the rest of the week. I am hoping this will turn into a long term lifestyle change but I dont want to scare myself by thinking so far ahead. I know I am sabotaging myself. I want to be thin, but I dont like being looked at when I am thin.... so I am holding myself back. Got a compliment on how I looked by a guy the other day and wanted to crawl into a bag of cookies (but didnt so dont scream at me just yet!).... Still dont know what the issue is there yet, I was never abused... So, I need to do some soul searching and start learning to appreciate the compliments. Anywho, I need to get my butt in gear, just wanted to check in on everyone. OH! Forgot to mention, my goal is to be able to climb Caddilac Mountain in Acadia this year, not just drive up it... lol.. I love hiking but would LOVE to add climbing in there too. I'm an outdoorsy kind of gal, I have just been too f** to do it lately. Okay, I'm going.. Have a great day everyone! Love to you all!

B\'fast 4 points. I will be going back to the gym today!!!! Let\'s go buddy!!!!
Happy your toe is better. Wow, I can tell you mean business with your new plan! The points will give you great structure so you don\'t have to worry or feel guilty about what you eat, just stay in that 29 point total and no worries! I finish eating by 7pm no matter what, and don\'t eat anything else until breakfast the next day and I do think it helps with the weight loss. Once you start doing it, it\'s not bad at all. You can do it! ( Beleive me,if I can anyone can!)I LOVE hiking too and can\'t wait to hit the mountains late summer/fall. We are suppose to go to Idaho and by then I will be in enough shape to enjoy it! Well, here\'s to a fantastic day on your new plan!
Okay, need to edit my goal a bit, I am shooting for 26 points, not 29. I\'ve had 11 points so far today and feel pretty good about my eating, now for some exercise!
Let\'s go girls.... I\'ll be ONE of your cheerleaders this week..... (Picture me swinging my pom-poms up and down for you... Go Amber, Go Tracey... rah, rah, rah!
Goals sound good. Keep up the good work.
