Since my e-mail is messed up at work and I am basically useless without it, I will sneak in a post now instead of waiting for lunch! Hey, they have to fix the problem, I am just using my time as efficiently as possible...
Good news and bad news today. Bad news first - I am SORE!!!!!!!!
I could not give 100% to my treadmill workout this morning, but at least I did it (5 mph for 20 min, 4 mph for 25 min). All those squats and lunges yesterday did me in. And my Dr called and my last pap was abnormal. Great...
The good thing is that I did some research and the cell abnormality he said I had usually goes away on its own 70% of the time. And I just have to get re-tested in 3 months. If it was something more serious, he wouldn't wait 3 months to retest!
Good news - I worked out 5x this week!!!
And I will be taking a much needed break from working out over the weekend. And more good news - official weigh in this morning was 141!!!
I lost 2 lbs this week!!!!!!!!
I know I should not get too excited, but I haven't seen a number that low in a loooong time. I reached an all-time high of 148 this summer, and it took me all that time to get down to where I am now. But this is motivating, and I will definitely try to stay serious about losing those last few lbs.
Yesterday:
B: chocolate oatmeal
L: salad w/chicken
S: string cheese; 2 mini cucumbers
S: apple-n-pb
D: crockpot pork roast w/rutabaga, carrots, onion; HC fudge bar
E: Pilates Sculpt DVD (55min)

Amy, if I knew a way to get rid of the stress, I would be all over it. It is just crazy, but I guess that is what happens when you move higher up the chain - more responsibility = more headaches!
Tracey, you have enough to worry about in the UK - clotted cream, mince pies... I actually smuggled clotted cream into the US last time. So we had my British friend's daughter try to bring a couple tubs in over the break, but she was stopped and Customs confiscated it! They said if it had sugar as an ingredient they would have let her keep it. So now I can only get my "cream fix" whenever I am in the UK!
