good Morning Jill!

I do think you qualify to be my shopping partner. My friends all get mad at me because I have so many bags that they end up having to carry some for me!! Yesterday my friend was like "Holly! If you can't carry all of the bags, then that is too much for one trip!!!" She was teasing me so badly! Ah well, you gotta do what you gotta do! And I'm going back to the mall today to buy a few things..

I'm just getting into the workout gear! it is so cute, how can you pass it up?? My only problem is, I think I am a better shopper by myself! When Im shopping with people, I tire them out! Yesterday we met up at 1 then were still going at 5 until I HAD to go meet my grandparents for dinner!! lol! at least it can add up for some light cardio, right?

I LOOOOOVE fiber1 with blueberries and yogurt. I was just eating granola with it, , but now that my granola is all gone, Ive just started using f1. Tastes soo good!

Now, you get out there and buy that jacket!! , check my journal to see what I ended up going with at the mall later today!!

have a great day Jill. and you are a lucky duck, going to workout in your own gym!!! thats so fun!!!

Hmmmmm... Let's see. I like books



I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain...

wait a while. if it goes away, it wasn't really a craving. If it stays, it needs to be fulfilled.
if it goes away ... then comes back big time, sit down and eat that hunk o fudge.

It's great that you're fully in control Jill of when you feel like cheating, when you don't, etc. For me its more of a spur of the moment type of thing. I get in the mood to cheat, and before I know it's an all out binge and pretty much out of control.

Jill, THANKS

I finally tried your Fibre protein pancakes. Despite the fact I seem to have overdone the baking soda (it frothed all over the pan?!), still tasted GOOD

Monstar...Im not always in control. I had mini halloween chocolate bars today, snacked on animal crackers at work all day cause it was busy, and I didnt have time to eat my chix. Had F1 and milk tonight and baked homemade banana bread! Waiting to dig into that! ATleast its healthy-oats, apple sauce, splenda and bananas! Diet sucked today!!

Novo-use about a tsp of each baking soda and baking powder. Cook 1 side till it is browned, then turn off the burner, and flip the pancake. Leave for only a minute or so. Gooeey and raw in the middle! How I like em! Dont forget to mix blueberries in the batter.

Needless to say, there is no point in posting my diet today, it would only make people want to eat bad stuff. ATleast I did 50-55 mins of empty stomach cardio, seeings as today was supposed to be rest day. Maybe that will help with the damage.

Hi Jill,
I hope you don't mind me using your quote to post in my room to motivate me more...I agree with it 100%! Also, your journal has really helped me out with my goals because it's very motivating. I've been @ IM for quite some time now, but it's just recently that I've started a journal of my own and getting involved in most conversations. As always, I'll be checking your journal to see your progress. Thanks!

Hi Jill ,

Thought I'd post my cheat day here this time then you wouldn't have to sort through my journal
Hmmmmmm... while driving miss daisy to garage sales i had choc milk and a cherry cream cheese danish

Lunch was BBq roast beef, BBq baked beans, mashed potatoes w/white gravy, tea.
mid afternoon snack - popcorn and grape koolaid !

supper = personal size pizza w/the works, garlic bread, tea

Evening snack - a handful of summer sausage and pepperjack cheese

The end !

Oh and a couple of dark chocolate kisses while visiting my dad in the hospital

So now your cheat doesn't look so bad does it ? Back on the wagon for another 6 days !

Hi Jill, just wishing you a nice week ahead! O and by the way, I've checked out the lululemon site - niceee workout pants!! All we get here is boring Nike, Reebok ( you get the idea) stuff.... so when I went to Shanghai I bought tons of really funky ( and you wouldn't believe how cheap), workout clothes! Hmm considering you shop a lot for this kinda stuff, you should save yoru money for a ticket to China, and buy them all there, it would probably work out cheaper!

Jill dear, sometimes we need to be extra bad in order to have our committment to being extra good reinforeced for weeks to come. Simple as that! Don't sweat it too much ok? ( though knowing you you will sweat it off big time in the morning and it's nt gonna be THAT bad!)

aw, shoot. These things happen. Whudyagonnado? ? nah. pick yourself up and move onward and onward, with renewed resolve & stiffened sinews.

warrior not victim. you control the food. It does not control you.
repeat as necessary.

CC and D thanks, you made my mornin' just a little bit brighter.

I'm singing to my self, 'fatty fatty 2 by 4, cant fit through the bathroom door.....' I feel gross. I really need to dig deep and re-evaluate this weekend, triggers, etc... Not gonna be fun or easy.

Carbs and cals are going to be pretty low the next 2 days, just after training. Oh, and tonnes of veggies. Off to do back and cardio, oooops I mean I left my lights on and my stupid car wont start!

Sara, i just use the monitors on the cardio equiptment, they seem to be pretty accurate. I can usually tell how high my hr is by the intensity of the cardio, how much Im sweating, and how hard I am breathing. I do have a hr monitor, just dont really use it.
