So I started my day yesterday with great intentions. After getting new tires and spending $400 I didn’t want to I became sluggish. I usually treadmill in the morning and if I don’t, boy is it tough to get on later. Then my friend called. Thank you, Leanne. I told her I did want to. She said that’s why you need to! So I did. I walked 2 miles again yesterday. She also gave me a tip that if getting on the scale is frustrating I should try taking measurements instead. Again, thank you Leanne! I’m trying hard to establish my routine this week (a hint from Jade!) so that next week when I go back to teaching after my break I’ll be set. So thank you to all of you for your support, kindness, and understanding. Here’s to a good day. My tip for the day…chew sugar free gum while your making dinner and cleaning up to keep from picking!
Pounds 2 Go - 21.5! YEAH!

I’m glad to hear you got on treadmill yesterday! Sorry about the tires. Ouch.
Hey can I borrow your feet for my walk tomorrow? Thanks in advance.

That is some good advice you are following–and I like the tip about the gum too.
2:39 pm
good idea about the gum I will have to try it.

I’m in favor of gum too… great tip and I can’t wait to try it!

For some reason, chewing gum makes me hungry.

That is a good idea about the gum….

WTG, Clara! I like the measurement idea. Sometimes that is a better indicator than the scale.
8:56 pm
Gum!
Oh man, now I want gum.
I am so suggestible…

Here’s a tip on measurements that I just read about yesterday.
Don’t use a tape measure - who REALLY needs to know those numbers unless you’re getting fitted for a bride or bridesmaid gown? The article I read said to get yourself a piece of ribbon that will fit around your waist (or the area you’re trying to trim). Cut the length every time you shrink and eventually you will get to a place that makes you happy… and you’ll have a big pile of scrap ribbon to throw in the air in celebration!
