I feel great today, so I know I'm not getting sick... this seems to happen once a month or so. Sleep habits are consistent- no extra stress at work. IDK!

I sure do!!! I take a nap almost everyday. I get home about 4 and nap from then til about 6:15 then go to my class at 7:15 or 7:30. It's like a charging a battery. But i've always been a napper. lol

So, with tomorrow starting week 2, how about a challenge?

 

I was thinking that everyone could pick their biggest "guilty pleasure" food and see if they can go the whole week without it. Anyone want to try it with me?

 

I'm going to go without Mexican food, either at a restaurant or at home. No yummy tortilla chips for me!

My guilty pleasure food is chocolate....I don't think I've ever gone a day without some kind of chocolate, let alone a whole week. I even eat it for breakfast. I think I will say I won't eat a chocolate bar or a piece of chocolate for the week, but I will allow myself to eat it in a breakfast bar or a Vitatop. I won't torture myself lol!

Chips... I will go without them!

I made an agreement with FI.. If I can get down to a certain weight by May 8th (its 4-5 lbs down), then he will buy me a super cute new summer dress for "Polynesian night" (theme dinner and dance that were going to) hehehe

Awesome! I wonder if I can talk my fiance into something like that!

Im going to go without beer this weekend...no alcohol at all. It may kill me though...

[LadyTrunck]

FI and I started a challenge for ourselves this week that will last through next week. No alcohol whatsoever. We’re going to meet the FIL’s in Palm Springs in two weeks, and I need my swimsuit to look better!! It is easy during the week, but when the weekend comes, it will be harder……..

Hmmm... Maybe mine should be sticking to my diet. I've been allowing myself little cheats by having a bite of whatever FI is having, which isn't completely derailing me, but I'm sure it's not good! We've also been going out to eat once or twice on the weekend, and even though I've been trying to make healthier choices there, I'm sure it's not as good for me as staying in.

 

The only other thing I can think of that I've been guilty of doing lately is having a drink on occasion, but my friend is having a wine and board game party tomorrow night, and I don't know if I want to abstain completely from the wine.
