    Way to go Joan!!! Hows the weight today? Just so you all know- I reread my last port and was shocked by all the typos. When I post using the Ipad- it changes my words so fast that I don't catch them.

    Joan- you sound like you've got it together this time around. I'm having a hard time staying on track. I find that I do more mindless eating than I realized. I remember now that you have to embrace the growling stomach at first. But he way, did I tell you that I read a dr. Oz article on this...

    Jann. What a sweet baby! And you look great! Magnolia, I agree with Joan. You need rest! It's that time of year where you can pick up viruses too easily from being run down. Joan, does the shake have a name? I'm starting the same diet today! I can't take it another day and all the exercise...

    Like they say- simple but not easy! Those are some great hints but I'm like you- my best intentions can get wrecked by impulsive eating. Cooking is hard because I also snack. I'm trying to precook most of Thanksgiving dinner so I don't eat as I go. Well, Ill get out the scale and my notebook and...

    Last night was date night for me and DH. This consisted of a 30 min spin class (where we both have the shoes now) followed by TRX followed by massages and dinner out. Are we getting old or what? Luckily, my DH "gets " this!! This morning I went to another spin class and he went to tennis. So...

    Jann, Yup! I've been working out all these years and I still cannot tolerate that much weight on my wrists when I do planks or pushups or burpees. If you keep your body at an angle like on the step, you can focus on the core work that is supposed to be happening. Magnolia, let us know what you...
