Sounds like your "cheat" day was a good one. I am now thinking about visiting the new Teavana that opened near me. Some of those teas sound so damn good!

Hi Jill! I

I was soooo impressed with your pics!

Karen - thanks for the kind words!! I'm not sure I really have a "secret" - it's the fact that I have Leigh in my corner and I now know for sure that I'm doing what's right for ME because it's working!! Makes it easy to have a great attitude!!

Awwww THANKS Ginger!!!

Followed by stretching stuff

A pretty good workout all around! Nothing earth-shattering to report, but it was a solid workout. Diet has been spot-on.

DH and I went to WalMart yesterday, and I grabbed three new pair of workout pants. I've been a size Large (12-14) for so long, I just grabbed them, paid for them and threw them in the wash this morning. This afternoon, I put on a pair, did my weight workout, then, when I was running on the treadmill, the darn things kept falling off of me!!!! Guess I need a medium now!! WOOOHOOOOO!

Tomorrow is a rest day!

Now, ya know............That could become a hazard if you have your workout pants around your ankles while running!!!

It also brings a whole new meaning to running your a** off, doesn't it?

In all seriousness.........That's just awesome!!!!

You deserve that big clap in your original post!

Tracey, you're making great progress and it's very inspiring to see how well you're doing!

dillytl · 03-04-2008, 07:36 AM

Thanks Stephanie and Karen!!!!

I'm

today!!! It's been really warm here (last night the low was in the 50's), so we left the bedroom window open a little bit since it gets really stuffy in our room at night. Well, about 1 AM, we were jolted out of bed by this terrible REALLY REALLY LOUD screeching/growling/somekindaw eirdsound going on in the back yard (we live in the woods). There were a couple of racoons fighting right underneath our window!! Sounds I've never heard before!!!! Scared the bejesus out of both of us - so needless to say, it took a while to finally get back to sleep.

I need a NAP!!!!!

Kirjava · 03-04-2008, 02:17 PM

I hate having my sleep disrupted! (who doesn't, really?!)
Are you enjoying your rest day?

SpacecityPaula · 03-04-2008, 02:39 PM

Yippe on needing new pants

DH and I go camping quite a bit in the summer and the first time I heard racoons fighting like that, I made a B-line to the car and slept there the rest of the night.......lol The noises they make are quite scary, aren't they?

I hope you get better sleep tonight.

They sure are loud!!! Where do you camp? DH and I just bought a travel trailer last year and did a lot of camping! We usually ended up in the Lancaster, PA area!

Thankfully, work was pretty busy today so I didn't have a lot of "down" time and didn't feel tooooo terribly sleepy. Was too busy!!

GinnyLou · 03-04-2008, 06:20 PM

Congrats on the new pants, Chickadee.

marygrace · 03-04-2008, 09:20 PM

Looks like a great workout, and yay for the pants!

I also live in PA and we go to Prince Galletzin State Park. DH and I joke though, because we call it "Eddie Bauer" camping. We only have a tent, but man the stuff we take.......lol I love it. We usually go 2-3 times during the summer for 9-11 days at a clip.

Never heard of that park....I'll have to look it up!! DH and I usually only go for long weekends. Maybe this year we'll take a longer trip!

Work has been CRAZY BUSY - I'm not very happy about that cuz it's preventing me from coming here and hanging out with you guys!!!
