SITG Check-In Sunday, June 26

Happy Sunday!

I hope everyone is having a great weekend. :)

I've only been up for twenty minutes, but I've had my abs tight that whole time. Today, I have about 3 hours worth of working out and cleaning the house to do , so it should be pretty easy to remember. Tonight is a different matter. I'm thinking of taking myself out for dinner. To The Cheesecake Factory. Not a good idea. So, not only do I have to resist the actual cheesecake (a la the "No Sweets Check-In") but I have to maintain good gut sucking posture. :eek:

How's everyone else doing?

Mornin' Luna!

I just got back from a 40 minute inline skate and the gut was sucked the whole time (gotta look good for anyone passing by, ya know;) ).

I did pretty good yesterday, although I ate something that made my stomach all bloated - difficult to suck it in, when all it wants to do is stick out.

I think one of the keys is wearing form-fitting clothes. Then you feel compelled to suck it in, lest you should be caught unawares by the paparazzi.
 
Hey Lunacat and Shelley! I have been sucking away as much as I can. I am more aware of it when I am working out or when I am sitting at the computer. I went shopping yesterday and Of course sucked it in a lot then while trying on clothes:)

Luna you should go to the cheesecake factory! They have a cheesecake made with splenda or at least they do at the here. Maybe I shouldn't have told you that! I haven't tried it but almost did last weekend and would have if not running short on time after our dinner. Shelley where is our No Sweets Check In? HEHE I guess if you don't start the daily thread we all sit back and wait:) Or maybe everyone is having a busy weekend.

Hi Luna,

Thank you for the reminder, I do it when I remember then I forget it and let it go. I am going to work today, I will be sucking it in.

Shelly, I think it is a good idea to wear a snug cloths to remember to keep that gut in.

Have a great day girls, I am taking a rest day of exercise but have to go to work.
 
SITG .... worked yesterday and it looks like I have more than an eight-hour day today since I am the only one working...:-( Sitting at the computer hammering away and suckin' it in...
 
Terri, I bet the German chocolate cheesecake isn't made with Splenda! }( For some crazy reason, I want to go there because they have a really good salad! And it's big enough to fill you up so you don't have room for the cheesecake.

Hope you got some good stuff on your shopping trip. I, too, went clothes shopping yesterday. I must have created a vacuum in the fitting room for all the sucking I did! :)

Shelley- watch out for those paparazzi! They'll run you off the road if you don't give them a big smile. That's pretty bad if you're in your inline skates!

Jane and Logos- I'm sorry you have to work today. :( At least if you're alone at work, you can check the Cathe forums without having to be sneaky about it!

Lunacat, what salad do you order from ther? I like there chicken but it is a lot and wind up bringing home leftovers when I go. I did get some good stuff on my shopping trip. Some great summer shirts and more sandals. I am a sandalaholic:) Ya know though I may be running around in tops and underwear as I hate all the very low cut jeans and super short skirts tthey have out. I want something that does more then barely cover my crotch and for skirts I like them to cover my a$$. Oh well what did you get?

Terri
 
The salad is arugula, frisse, some other green stuff, walnuts, blue cheese and raspberry viniagrette. Not what you might call healthy, but neither is a "taco salad!"

I'm not fond of the revealing jeans and skirts either. Here's a sampling of what I got:

Beige lace cami, jeans and 3/4 sleeve black knit top from Express
From H&M:
2 linen knee length skirts (one white, one tan)
Black off the shoulder, long sleeve sweater
black linen capris
khaki capri cargo pants
black peasant-type linen blouse
White button up blouse for work
2 belts

All of that was under $150 (gotta love the clearance racks!) On reflection, maybe I should work on adding some color to my wardrobe...

I really need some shoes, but I think I might just wait until payday. :7

Luna!

Man, you scored! That's awesome. I'm glad you're going shopping with me on the road trip. You seem to have a good nose for sniffing out bargains.
