Jillian Michaels kicks my butt!!

I woke up this morning and did my 30 day Shred workout by Jillian Michaels. Its roughly 30 minutes and kicks my butt. I am so sweaty afterwards!! I am awake the rest of the day, though, when I do the workout.

AB is making a seafood dish for dinner tonight. Last night, I had salad for dinner and 4 cinnamon graham crackers for a snack later. Not the healthiest.

Getting in shape isn't easy. I love to eat, and its a lot of work and pretty hard to stop a habit like eating for fun. But, I have determined the best way to curb my eating habits is to keep myself busy all weekend long!

I have to make 5 wristlet purses for the first vegas trip of the season for my sisters me and my mom. I also started a new etsy shop, and I need to make a few items for that. My Avon order comes in today, so I will be busy in a few hours sorting and invoicing all my deliveries to make this weekend. Lastly-- K and I need to find some great red shoes to wear with our bridesmaids dresses for Ts wedding. Plus, I like sleep-- lots of sleep if I can.

What are you doing this weekend? Do you have any good tips to share to help me eat healthier and less often??

Breathe...relax

Well, beauty busters-- I snapped at my sister today. I don't know why. Oh, wait! Yes I do: Because I need food!!!! That's why!!
Resolution: Lose Weight.
This one sucks. I have been trying to eat more fruits, veggies, whole grains, less fat, etc, but today I feel like my body is going through junk food detox. I'm frantically looking around the office for something...anything...snickers, chocolate, french fries (not really, but you get the idea.) Its tough. I know I can do it, but its hard.
Last night, I went with a sister ice skating. It was my first time, and I had a lot of fun, but I was too tense. My body hurt from being all tensed up. Around 8:30, I started getting hungry. I hadn't ate yet because I had a late lunch, so I took a walk to Wendy's and got a small chili and walked back home. I know its not the best thing for me, but in terms of fast food, I thought chili was a good choice. If I tried to make something, I would have been still hungry and waiting at 9pm. Wendy's chili does have red meat, but it also has beans and veggies (I've seen them in there!), so I felt okay with that.
AB is making dinner tonight, so I can't wait to see and taste what he prepares. He is a really good cook, and he enjoys cooking...so you know there is a lotta love in it. I haven't seen him for a few days and I miss him. I might even bring some yarn to crochet with tonight, too. Before dinner, though, is Avon catalog delivery. I need to hit a few stores and chinese restaurants and drop off some books so I don't have to wake up so early on Saturday.
