Went to Zumba today

Back on track.  Went to Zumba today at the Y.  1 hr.  I did Wii Walk It Out last night during the Penn State game.  (I find a song at a good pace for me.  About 128 BPM.  Then, I start walking and change the channel.  I walked for 2 hrs during the game and racked up all kinds of points!  Then I go back to the game and spend my points!  That way I don't get bored.)  So yesterday, I ended up with just over 21,000 steps.  I am shooting for 12,000 today. 
Food and exercise over last few weeks has been bad!  Today isn't too bad so far. 
2 cups coffee with Splenda and 1/2 & 1/2
Cashews
99% fat free Progresso Minestrone soup (1 serving)
hamburger roll with Smart Start spread
water
Tonight is roast beef in rotisserie and potatoes and string beans.  I am going to not eat bread for the rest of the day.  I truly think the bread and pasta is what kills me. 
My Eagles football game comes on at 4pm.  Going to put some clothes away, watch my game, putz around the house a little.  Trying to get "me" back this week.  Trying to let David suffer his own consequences.  I did have a talk with him yesterday about his behavior and I sort of think I got through.  He is much better today.  Praying it lasts.
Resolution Ranch is no go.  $9700 for first month and $4500 every month after!!! 
I gained a couple of lbs back.  Back up to 154.  So again, determined and back on track.  I am off work this week.  I am going to my dad's in Florida 11/9 for 1 week.  I am really looking forward to getting away!

Those are some fantastic step counts! Amazing!
I know pasta is what kills me! I have to limit it to once a week and then a small serving...sometimes the small serving doesn\'t happen.
So glad to hear you are back to the Y...working on getting that T-shirt.
I hope things with David are getting sorted out and you can share some good news on that front soon.

Awesome job on ur steps, amazing!!! U kicked butt! That\'s the way to do it! Sorry about David. You would think they would have a facility that is less pricey but I guess they have to get their $ from somewhere..... that is so crazy!!! Can\'t imagine! You will find someplace! Yeah, I can\'t eat pasta or bread, it sticks! Bet you can\'t wait for your FL trip, jealous! Have a good time. Your doing great! Hope you enjoyed ur Eagles game!

Hey sorry about the Eagles.

Sounds like you have some ups and downs (though you ARE doing better than me!). I am trying the \"do one good thing for yourself\" thing everyday. I am hoping it develops into lots of good things!

Go Yvette go! Sorry I\'ve been MIA but I love you!

Hey there! I just caught up with your journals, you\'ve got some heavy stuff you are dealing with! I\'m sorry you have to go thru this, you don\'t deserve it! I can\'t believe that ranch is so $$$$! That\'s crazy! Congrats on your all your steps and taking the steps to help you feel better! HANG IN THERE!
