Another one of them there hot days!
It is hot and muggy. Humidity is through the roof, and I am glad whenever I am on my bicycle happily peddling along. Today I have some extra peddling to do. I am picking up a birdcage on the other side of town, then home to drop it off and then to the pizzeria to have a bite toe at with Fred. before that I go back to the Gym to settle the last administrative issues. I am so looking forward reallty starting. Any good tips and advice are very welcome! I am TOTAL excercise novice, well..................except for some volleyball and swimming when I was young. I LOVE swimming!
I have only one goal for this week: no added sugar/or sweetner. Which is challenge enough! I am very prone to using what I call "dust sweetner" in my smoothies and my desserts. And I also have my light drinks now and then, and my light products here and there. I won't be having any of those this week. I wish to get rid of this sugar imbalance in my blood which drives me to eating simply because a it makes me hungry. It means I will have to ween off the Australian Ice cream as well! Horror and Shock, can I live without Australian?
-grins- Of course I can! WATCH ME! And it is true, I feel my motivation bubbling inside. I am drinking my water again, and can stay away from chocolate in the supermarket! I do so hope I gave it a new impulse! again any pet talk or advice is MOST welcome.
In general, I would love to get to know "my" readers (better)! So I will make you a swop, leave me a message and I will send you a GREAT recipe for a healthy Fish dish made in a jiffy to amaze all your friends!
Note after the fact: I had one magnum and one magnum like ice cream. Not good, but I don't bthink it will do much damage. I cycled for 1.5 hourse in near 90 F/30 C, and my points were not enough for a whole day. however sugarlass day this was NOT!

Now THIS sounds more like my Willow!!! As I discovered when I became diabetic, sugar is a real bear to the diet. It creates hunger where none really exists! If you can truly cut out sugar, you will find the rest so much easier - and the kicker? You won't really miss it! I was absolutely stunned when I realize this.
I'm back on my bike too! It's as close to flying as you can get while still on the ground.

Actually Ali recommended your blog when she learned that I followed WW too (I know her from a sciencefiction/fantasy usenet group)
You can do this. The gym may seem intimidating at first. After a month, it won't. Don't try to do too much at once. If you don't know how to use a machine or if you aren't sure you are doing it right, ask one of the workers. Remember, you are paying them.
As far as strength training goes, get a schedule. Don't exercise every muscle, every day. Pick one day a week to do chest, shoulders, and biceps, another day to do back, triceps, and abs, and another day to do your calves, quads, and thighs. It doesn't need to be that exact breack down, but it gives you an idea. Again, if you are not sure about something, ask. It's much better to feel stupid and ask, then to practice doing something the wrong way and get hurt.
I wish it would get warm here and stay warm, but I don't think there's any chance of that.
Sounds as though you are really getting back into the swing of things even if you are have sugar challenges.
Sugar is my biggest temptation.
