OK, I've been mia for too long. I feel like I'm wandering around aimlessly with no real direction in mind. I really like the idea of having a fixed program to do without having to think too much about it. That's what I loved about NROLFW. And I'm with Leah in really missing the whole body workout concept. I want to love my workouts again.

I just read Venuto's Body Fat Solution and it was great. I'm thinking about going back to a 3 day weight training and 3 day light cardio routine and maybe using his A and B workouts to start with. I've missed cardio because it's a real stress buster/mood lifter for me unlike weights. I think it's because my mind can aimlessly wander while I'm doing SS cardio and I think through things and pray a lot. With weight training, I have to totally concentrate so I don't hurt myself (almost 50 year olds think about that - gone are the follies of youth) and the only praying I do is praying that I can finish the last set!

So, there you have it. My eats have been OK. The scale is creeping up and down a bit but fluctuating around a pretty decent weight, so it's OK. I'm trying to up my fruits and veggies. Why is it so hard to eat fruits and veggies and drink enough water when it's cold? Well, enough whining.

I'm thankful for the support system I have here on jpfitness. Support just isn't there locally.

Oh, my husband just informed me that we owe a ton on taxes so, barring a miracle, the summit is out for me.
