I know the winter weather is a challenge. You will have to take those sweet boys downstairs and play some exercise games. I am glad you have the membership to the gym because that is a big plus in the winter months. I always hated the elliptical but now I am starting to love it. There was a time I could not even do 5 minutes on it and I would quit. I am increasing my time weekly and I an up to 20 minutes followed by a 5 minute cool down. It is great for the knees. I think it may become my favorite cardio machine soon. Where does all that food come from in that office? You need to start bringing a fruit bowl and veggies and start a trend. Shake that office up and make it a "Health Zone Only." Nurses are pigs~they eat junk all the time so I feel your pain. Last week when I worked my 3 nights. One night there was cake and the second night there was cake and donuts. I am happy that my will power is in high gear or I would in trouble. I can not eat just a little bit. Two, three donuts later, I would be beating myself up. My trainer reminded me today also, that when we eat that junk, it causes those cravings to come back and weakens are will power. I was always an emotional eater too. Stress? Lets eat! It is hard to change those behaviors but the more successful we are at eating good, losing weight and inches and feeling great, I have less emotional eating. We have to change the way we think as well as the things we do. It is hard sometimes. Your doing a great job~stick with the plan! Great idea to get away from the food and walk. I try to exercise when I feel "food weak" and get away from the bad choices. Then I tell myself "You went to the gym, you hurt all over, do you really want that?" If I take the time to think about it and not just grab it the answer is always "Hell no". I walk away from the temptations go sit down and for 5 minutes I think hard about it. All the exercise, the good food I have been eating, the fact that I don't want cravings, the CRUISE and YOU~the support and encouragement you give me. That stops my impulse eating. Oh, I am on a roll.... Enjoy your weekend. I was thinking how your sister weekend has grown. I wish I was there to join in on the fun. I would be able to walk it without being short of breath!! Oh, yeah that reminds me, I started using the stairs at work. 5 floors up~just so I can keep up with you butt at the next Tiger game!!! Love you so much~stay strong, make good choices and most of all, have fun. Thanks for all your love and all you do to motivate me! Joining this site and all your talk about healthy living, impacted me and most likely saved my life. Hugs Sweetie! XXXXOOOO
