Another Great Day

Hi y’all! I have a great update. I went to the gym again today with my 14 month old. While she started freaking out after thirty five minutes and they had to call me back to get her, at least I got in a good run.

Yesterday was “sconeday.” I decided that my one weakness (ok, one of my weaknesses) I could still have once a week on Sunday. Thus Sunday became Sconeday and Mr. Flinger and our daughter go to Starbucks and get lattes and scones. It’s really helped me stay focused during the week because I know I’ll get a scone on Sunday so I can say no to more yumminess like chocolate chip cookies during the week. I’m hoping it works since one scone a week is much better than five and some other things!

Thanks again, y’all. The power of encouragement is amazing.

Mrs. F, I found that I needed a splurge day too, to get me through the week. I think that’s great!

Good for you for staying with your workout. And a scone seems like a great reward for working hard all week. :)

:::Whispers for fear of looking stupid, but I have no idea what a scone is:::

That is awesome. Sort of a reward for doing well all week. Glad you were able to get to the gym, too.

:D I love those Starbucks scones and I don’t even want to know what the points are. One of those a week isn’t going to hurt anything if you do relatively well all week. We have to have some reward. You can get the nonfat lattes which help a little LOL.. Congrats on getting to the gym. I am still trying to get my head geared for exercise.

Oh, shoot! I mean Thumper. Dang ‘p’ button.

Sue, I can’t think too much about the gym. I have to sleep in my gym clothes on days I’m going to go. :shocked:
