Need some motivation.


I have been having a hard time doing better with cutting out sweets, treats etc. I decided I have had enough and thought what is it going to take to get me motivated? So...I tried on my swimming suit last night. Yes, it was scary (totally gothic white winter skin) but it was exactly what I needed to get me to try to do better with my treat snatching. Still have a few more months until the warmer weather is upon us...better get serious with spinning and such!

5 telling it like it is:

HILARIOUS! How did you get that picture of me? I'm right there with you, thanks for being my spinning buddy!

Amanda, Let me share a little story that applies. I went to Macey's the other night before class to get some treats for class. I ended up buying over a pound of runts, and about 3/4 of a pound of "fruit coctail" candy. Both were from the bulk section. I thought mmmm that'll last me a couple weeks. Wrong, I finished all of it in 3 class periods. Did I share it? No. I am a pig, I have just decided to embrace my roots, and just work out more rather then take good food out of the picture. That's logical thinking. But if you have the will power, more power to you

Our kids are doomed because Shane & I both have a sweet tooth. Not saying that I could stop with the sugar cold turkey...just try to eat a little less of the stuff! A lb of Runts...now that is some serious sugar bugs in your teeth!
(That is how we bribe Kade into brushing...we tell him that sugar bugs will eat his teeth.) Hope they don't eat yours!
