Each of us conceals an abyss, though few of us are aware of its existence, and even fewer dare to explore its vastness.
Thanks Katie!! I took your advice. I read your journal too!! Good luck with your goals as well!!!![]()

I didn't gain any weight at all.. but I need to detox now! HA!
I will start with my food journal tommorow, since I am still OFF from work today.
I will also check out the LEG challenge!!

I did continue my exercise program! I was really good, did cardio almost every day (except Leg days) and GP gave me all my WOs beforehand to follow while I was away. He's such a nice guy.
You are welcome to follow my meal plans, I pretty much eat exactly what GP recommends..... with an occasional glass of red wine!! Thanks for the encouragement!!

I see you have quite a variety of great foods sapphire!Certainly you should never get bored of them!
Do you workout in a gym or at home?
Tired legs? You know what they say about achy legs? Hot steamy shower/bath followed by leg elevations. J/K about the leg elevations!

I guess I try to eat a wide variety of foods, but I get teased ALL the time by family and friends about how strict I try to be! They are so mean!! But they are fat (heehee), can't say that to them though...
Just joined World Gym last week and have gone there a few time already. I really like working out there rather than home because everyone is so nice and have similar goals. I also have lot of good home equipment for when I can't get out.
The hot steamy shower and evalated legs sound like an awesome idea to me!! And don't worry about offending me with sexual references, I LOVE sex. Best cardio in the world!!

Oh cool! World's Gym. My second favorite gym. Oh, I see your near the city!!!
Gee, your not far from gopro.....
So what do you do that sometimes time disallows you to go to the World's gym and workout at home? What type of equipment do you have at home?
I know you already have a cardio mechanism (hubby) so what other pieces do you have.
I couldn't live in your area anymore because I'd shoot over to New Haven, CT for pizza every weekend!![]()
