YOu can do it Deb...
Thanks Michelle. I really have no choice....I HAVE to get my legs healthy and that's that!
I know what you mean about "liking it" - it's alway a catch 22 - you hate doing it, but feel good (usually) afterwards! I too have been so out of shape that I want to and almost throw up - TMI I know - but that certainly means you are "into" it - while you are doing it. That is awesome... I have a trick that I use recently about the working out... if I don't feel like it, I say, "just put your clothes on and do 3 minutes" well you know what - I have YET to stop... it works with hiking, the gym, "just GO to the gym and if you don't feel like an hour do 30 minutes..." I always end up feeling better after the first 10 minutes (my body warms up very slowly...)Well.....do I like it? NO!But it's the best workout I've ever seen. It works every part of your body, so it's great! Hearing about your 18 pounds makes me want to try to get motivated to start doing it again.
Karate: I've only just started, so just have my white belt. The next graduation is mid-June I think, so I'll get my orange belt then. Tyler just moved up to green a little over a week ago. I really like it so far.....except for one night when it was such an intense workout and I'm so out of shape, I had to run off the floor and throw up!
I've got a couple of ideas about this moment... mostly visualizing myself and their reactions!
Don't beat yourself up, one of the first KEYS I learned - it's over, let it go and ONWARD AND DOWNWARD... we all slip and it's just a temporary reaction - not forever.
love
and sugar free strawberry mousse among loads of other choices. John doesn't like salads, but he found loads to enjoy. Great for vegetarians. Very clean place.
We have had a great evening. We had dinner at Sweet Tomatoes and then played a game of Pirates Cove Mini golf. Really nice for a change.
Have any of you eaten at Sweet Tomatoes. Oh it is yummy.

Wonderful different salads and extras, loads of different healthy soups, baked potatoes, muffins and breads and very nice desserts. Seems to be Strawberry month, so there was a lovely strawberry salad, strawberry and apple cobbler, strawberry muffins, strawberry lemonade
Oh my gosh, this is wonderful news! You just made me so happy! I LOVE HOT DOGS!!!!
I'll be looking next time I'm at the grocery store!
Thanks Lisa! What's funny is I'd planned on getting KFC takeout tonight but just forgot. I printed their nutritional info from their website and calculated points and figured out what I was going to have. Then we just got busy and forgot, so Tyler ate dinner at home. I wasn't hungry and just had a mini bagel with WW cream cheese.
GREAT idea!I know what you mean about "liking it" - it's alway a catch 22 - you hate doing it, but feel good (usually) afterwards!

Good luck to all! Caring for yourself so you can be MORE for your family is an awesome way to look at it too!
You know... I kind of like you being around at this time Marilyn... gives me someone to chat with long BEFORE I need to go to bed...
Now that buffet is about $5.99, as opposed to $9.99 at Sweet Tomatoes. Not as healthy as Sweet Tomatoes though.We also got 10% off for being over 60!!!
Yup, I know all about that. It's just difficult to force myself.
