This morning I decided to up my cardio to a high speed of 8.1 on the treadmill. I felt better today doing cardio than I have in a long time. It was refreshing. Still a challenge, but not so torturous!! I'm feeling stronger and that makes me feel really good about myself!
I am working today on being more patient with my son during school. Spring Break was still in my brain yesterday. Other goals are to make sure I'm not so absorbed by the Guestbook that I 'live' on the computer all day! Not good.
I think what I enjoy about GB is not only hearing uplifting and encouraging things from others, but contributing to helping someone else have a better day. I get more out of that and I think I'm smiling a lot more. My son said...."I love how you smile at the computer, mom!" It's not really the computer, but the wonderful, fun people I have met over these past 10 weeks.
I am really enjoying getting to know my friend, Deb, in Australia! It seems a world away, but one day she and I and hopefully our families will meet in person. I'd love to see Australia and that big beautiful BLUE lake she lives near.
And she must see our Pikes Peak with "powdered sugar snow" covering it's head and shoulders.
Must stay on track for my 6 meals today. Keeping my metabolism steady during the day will get me closer to my goals.
Thanks Carrie, This is all new to me so I am learning. Fun though. :)
ReplyDeleteHi Dear Lori,
ReplyDeleteWow you are such a clever girl! I sent this link to my work address, so I can check it during the day, love reading it! You must have had a lot of fun with the BFL gang!
The GB is addictive, I was spending far too much time trying to catch up, so I had to be content with "skimming" and not commenting, at thats okay because I still pick up tips and inspiration from people.
Thank you for being my "connection" to the BFL world Lori, I appreciate it, and don't stress if you don't reply to my emails straight away! It's totally fine.
It's Thursday 9.05am, just started work, so I better get to it! Hope you had a great Wednesday!
Cheers! DebSthAussie
Hey Deb,
ReplyDeleteHad an interesting day today. You'll find it in my blog from Thursday! But things are good now and tomorrow I have upper body workout. I am amazed how much I look forward to these workouts. Sometimes I have trouble with the eating...not getting enough.. or missing a meal. UGH. Right now I am feeling soooo hungry. Had fish, veggies and squash so I thought I'd be ok for 2 hours. Aw well...I am going to have some cottage cheese and my fiber cereal very soon. Can't live without that for one day. :) Hope your Friday is going well. Love to you and yours. Lori
