Good morning!!

I am going to have to change my WOWY time till 9am until after the bugster is out of school, then I am going to move it to 7am, I am thinking. I have been working out at 6am, but Dh has been working such long hours (14-16 hours a day!!) that he has been calling me about 5:30 or so in the am to chat for a bit, since we don't see each other much before its time for bed, and I don't want to cut our chats short--ykwim?

WOW I can't believe that it will soon be a month that I have been doing Turbo Jam-I just don't know where the time has gone?? I haven't lost much weight wise, but I have lost a lot in inches--which is a good thing too! Replacing that squishy stuff with toned up muscles. Can't beat that!

Still pondering the weight stuff. Wondering if NT is the way to go while I am trying to loose weight, or if I should do a lower fat route and then switch to NT when I have lost my weight. I have done well on it, but I am just concerned cause I have a lot to loose, been watching what I eat, and have been excercising a lot and still haven't lost even really a pound a week. I suppose that is better for long term weight loss, and actually keeping it off, but I would sure like it to come off faster!!

Breakfast-- 1 cup old fashioned oatmeal (cooked) 2 cups black coffee (3:30 am--thinking about a snack about now!)

Missed yesterday--just wasn't moving very fast--dh worked till midnight and then we only got 3 hours of sleep, so I was just too tired and wonky to workout yesterday. Did well with my eating and I when I hopped on the scale today, I was down 1.5 pounds--can't beat that! Still really loving TJ-- wasn't able to get the deluxe set last friday, but hopefully next week, I will be able to pick it up.

Crafting wise, I am working on some baby things for a lady who is pg with twins. They are anticipating that the girls are only going to be about 5 lbs. There are lots of people making things for them--it was a post on the charity crafting list I am on--so I am making a couple diaper shirts and some little sun dresses. I am also knitting a couple blankets--but I am not sure if they will be done in time.

Well--gotta go figure out what to do for breakfast--dh usually makes waffles, but he had to work today...so I am not sure if I will make pancakes or waffles. Ok, my one bad meal of the week!

ACK!!! Major downfall on keeping up with my journal! I think I am going to take a page from irish-robbie and just post every day!

Today was Cardio-party 1 and ab jam. I have decided to alt between Turbo Scult and the 3t-tubular workouts, after I have done some form of TJ cardio. I am hoping to get the deluxe set a week from tomorrow.... well order it anyway. Been having a bit of a stressful day, so haven't gotten as much done today as I should. Well... it is only 11am, so maybe I will get more done... but really need to talk to hubby, and he left his cell home *sigh*.

Anyhoo..... Haven't lost much weight wise, but I have sure lost a lot in inches! I have even had neighbors comment! I am feeling much better--really liking NT.
So far today, I have had--
Breakfast--yogurt and black coffee
Lunch-- smoothie with whole fat yogurt, banana, a few frozen strawberries, raw organic egg, flax seed. Also 4 small slices homemade sourdough bread, a bit of raw milk cheese and 1/2 a cucumber.
Dinner--leftover meatloaf and maybe some whole wheat pasta... not sure what to have with it yet.


Here's a cool thing that I found on another blog out there in cyberspace.

You Are Midnight

You are more than a little eccentric, and you're apt to keep very unusual habits. Whether you're a nightowl, living in a commune, or taking a vow of silence - you like to experiment with your lifestyle. Expressing your individuality is important to you, and you often lie awake in bed thinking about the world and your place in it. You enjoy staying home, but that doesn't mean you're a hermit. You also appreciate quality time with family and close friends.

What Time Of Day Are You?
