Good morning ladies. I am going for about 60% squeaky clean, 40% tidy today. That's the goal.
Workout this morning was LIC Cardio Premix -- and I STRUGGLED thru it. Not sure why it was so hard on me, but I made it thru.
Food plan for the day:
B: small bowl of cereal
S: half sandwich
L: grilled chicken (leftovers) and a banana
S: wheat crackers and low-fat cheese
D: not totally sure, maybe beef & broccoli
NO SWEETS!
As for wedding details, what do you wanna know? I am MORE THAN HAPPY to talk about it!;-)

Hello clean and tidy ladies!!
Kate, Friendship bread sounds lovely! We should try to come up with a cleaner version, it might be nice to do an oat based bread with applesauce...dried fruit..now i'm getting hungry!
Robin, how's Mindy's workouts? I've never done one before.
Katie, so sorry about your little one, i hope he's feeling better today. And any wedding details are very welcomed!!
Well, i'm managing some very light pilates. I tried Jennifer Kries last night. I'm thinking i'm going to try to do squeeze or something with very very light weight for some upper body. I'm waiting on my chiropractor appointment as well. I'm itching to try some cardio, maybe i'll try spinning, but i'm not too sure about sitting to long on the sciatic nerve...oh i'm still going nuts with this!!! Its been 2 weeks today that i had the injury.
Eating, squeeky clean though, yeah sure til the weekend right
I'll post menu's later, its early here, not sure yet!!
Enjoy your day everyone,
Steph

Good Morning!
Quick check in. I did BBC shoulders and back - I liked it. My eating has been tidy, but not clean. I am definitley making improvements though.
Steph, I am sorry about your back. Being injured is not fun. Ease back slowly, it pays off in the long run.
Katie, Yes please do fill us in on your wedding plans. I love weddings! I'm sorry your son is sick.
Kate, You work from home? What do you do? I hope you get some cardio in today.
Robin, I'm curious about Mindy's workout too. How'd it go?
Hi everyone else and have a clean and/or tidy day!

Hey ladies.
Mindy's All Systems Go w/o was a little hard...moderately hard LOL because she does a lot of jumping and lunges...so if you like lunges. I used a 9# body bar and it was too heavy for me. This circuit workout is advanced and high impact. I like it but I have to be careful with my old-lady knee. It has three circuits of toning (upper and lower) and three cardio cycles. There are no premixes but there are chapters so if you want to do just cardio you can. The DVD is about 65 minutes.

Here is the scoop on the wedding...
May 25 (a Sunday), 2008, about 4 pm on the beach in Nags Head, NC. The ceremony will be small and intimate -- only close friends and family, maybe 20 or 25 people. I have not yet purchased a dress, but Chris (DF) and Collin (DS) will wear matching khaki suits with white dress shirt, no tie. Collin will walk me down the "aisle" -- the long walkway from the beach house we have rented to the beach, where guests will be waiting. My father, a baptist minister, will perform the ceremony. No bridesmaids or groomsman. We will probably be barefoot on the sand.
Here is a link to the house we have reserved for the week...
http://www.villagerealtyobx.com/OuterBanks/VacationRentals/NagsHead/Details/CaribbeanQueen/
Following the ceremony, we will all go to dinner at one of our favorite restaurant in Nags Head. Then we will head to our honeymoon suite and everyone will go back to the house to party it up. Most guests will leave the next day (Memorial Day), but they are welcome to stay if they want for the whole week. Chris and I will honeymoon at our beautiful house in Nags Head, and take a bigger trip for our first anniversary. It is at that time that we will also start trying for a baby, so the trip is to celebrate both of those things!;-)
We will have a formal reception back here in Harrisonburg, VA on June 7, 2008. That way, all of our friends and family who could not make the trip for the wedding (and those who did) can celebrate with us.
How does that sound? Anything else I didn't cover? :7

Lots of news from everyone today!
Robin - Sugary soda? Please! Did I say I was going to be ultra-clean today? NOT! I just had pizza hut and oatmeal cookies! (hangs head in shame) That'll teach me to let myself get too hungry.
Katie! Thanks for the wedding details! It sounds perfect. Will you have DS w/ you on honeymoon or do you get a week alone? I am ACHING for a date NIGHT. It has been months and months. Honestly, I can't even remember. Not to be too nosy, but....if you're trying to get preg, read "Taking Chrage of Your Fertility". Awesome, awesome book.
Steph - Sounds like you're doing good. Keep up the good work! Wish i could say my eating is as clean as yours today!
Shirl- TEll us more about BBC...curious. Yep, I work from home. DH is a plumbing contractor. We have 15 guys right now and are working all over the state (MICH) and next month we're starting some large projects in Wyoming. We're bigger than we've ever been. It's very stressfult to juggle it all. I'm up til 12 most nights and my day starts around 5. I really try to not do too much while DDs are around. I do as much as I can in early AM and after bedtimes. But I'm very fortunate to have them with me so I try not to complain....too much!
Robin - Lunges - you either love em or hate em - I hate 'em!
See you later!

Sure, everyone is invited!! We have plenty of room in that big old house!
Seriously, I am so excited about this wedding and I love the planning so much -- I am happy to talk about the wedding details any time you want!
As for the dress, I was originally thinking that I wanted something very simple and flowy for the beach -- maybe a sheath dress in chiffon on something like that. But when I went to try on dresses, I really fell in love with the big poofy dresses.
I haven't found one yet, but I am going to David's in Richmond on October 20th. I am really liking the look of this one these days...

RE: ::::::::::::::::::::Clean & Tidy Wed. 10-10::::::::...
What kind of dress is appropriate for the beach?
ANYWAY, about my EATING. That is what this thread is about, isn't it... I almost forgot!!
I stayed right on track with my eating today -- I ate Chicken Alfredo for dinner instead of Beef & Broccoli. I hate no sweets, only two cups of coffee.
I really wanted a diet Pepsi this afternoon, but I drank a big glass of water instead. I really wanted a piece of dark chocolate after dinner, but I drank a big glass of water instead.
I am determined to look good in that wedding dress!

Go, Katie, go! Motivate us! After all, we need to look good in OUR dresses at your wedding!;-)
How do you make your alfredo sauce? That's one thing I thought I could never eat again!
^5 to you on no chocolate.
I finished up squeaky-clean tonight...damage control from the cookie monster!
