Everything is good. I've been on a roll at the gym. I'm managing to work out on weights 3 days a week plus cardio. I've got an appt with the owner at 5:30 this afternoon, she's going to walk me around starting on the treadmill and taking me to the back for cardio and the other machines. I'm 52, going through menopause, my body is changing, I'm trying with God's help to lose my weight. And I'd like to see if she can give me a plan, something that will rev up my metabolism. (Well-we've had ice and snow today and Lea lives in Lewisburg, TN, more North than us, so we both had to cancel) I had to give up my other plan for a while. I hate that I had to do it, but economically, well you know the rest---rising cost of food, gas, etc. etc. I did good yesterday. I'm proud of myself. Rosie took Vicky and I to supper at the Olive Garden, and I had the salad, of course, there's dressing, but oh well, I didn't eat much. I had the grilled steak/chicken/vegies skewers, NO SEASONING. Plain!!! I added pepper to them. They were good. I was glad to know when I weighed this morning I was down one pound. Thank the Lord for that. I've got a salad made in the fridge waiting on me for supper tonight.
I hope we get to make it to Montgomery in the morning. We're having our CMA Seasons of Refreshing going on tomorrow and we'd really like to make it. Hopefully the road won't be bad. The snow is pretty outside.
We're anxious to get on our bikes and get out and about with our friends and CMA riders. I haven't been on my bike in 2 years, but hopefully will get back on it. It just makes me nervous. When I was 30 pounds heavier and had to be put on meds for blood pressure, and other stuff, PLUS going through the change, and YES I've had issues with that, but their better, I didn't want to ride. I love to ride. There's nothing like hitting the road and smelling that fresh air and enjoying Gods creation. It'll be good.
OK--it's 4:09 and I've been binging a little bit, not much, just tuff not on my plan, for instance I've had a bowl of 15 bean soup with crackers w/sausage in it and a half of a lite bologna and ff cheese sandwich. I'll be OK.

It will be okay, you are the smallest binge eater I know. My binges involve over 2,000 calories:) I mean I can eat if I need to. You guys are heading to Montgomery? Only 45 minutes away from Auburn! Wish we could see you, but I know you will be with the group. Congrats on losing a pound. Man don't you just feel so much affirmation when you step on that scale. I am really going to have to bust it if I want to make my goal by Ryan's birthday. But hey even if I do not make it, then I am still healthy and happy! Love you, be safe tomorrow!
