My foot is much better.. thank you! Once the swelling went down I could walk a little better. I couldn't let it get the best of me so I still went to Karate class on Saturday morning and on Sunday I did a great workout with Hubby. This morning I am only left with a bruise and just a small ache when I walk.


I am really focusing on getting my upper body looking good for summer. Last year I was terrified to wear tank tops because my arms were fat and flabby. This year I want to feel comfortable wearing what I want to... and hopefully show off my shapely arms!! So my goal is to do Forza 3 times a week (it is amazing for the shoulders!) continue with my upper body weight lifting.. and of course lose at least 20 by June!

Now, my little weight tracker at the top of the page hasn't moved in a looooong time. I think I have been stuck on a plateau... or maybe a yo-yo... either way I am getting my mind focused again. I lost 20 lbs...now I just need to focus on the next 20 lbs and get it done! No more excuses.. no more eating 'just because'... no more lazy days, I will do at least 30 minutes of walking every day...

Today's menu:

B- slim fast shake
S- Grapes
L- Tuna salad
S- Cliff Bar
D- Steak and Veggies

Today's Workout:

30- 45 minute walk (I cant walk fast just yet, it still hurts my foot to much)


Belly Dancing class
200 crunches
50 push ups


Conquer thyself, till thou has done this, thou art but a slave; for it is almost as well to be subjected to another's appetite as to thine own.- Sir Richard Francis Burton (1821 - 1890)

Sounds like a good plan. Looks like you're getting a lot of protein, which is perfect for weight loss. Hope your foot continues to heal quickly.

I was going to say, "you go girl," but then I realized that someone else already said it, and I'd look like a copycat! hahahaha! :)

Oh well, I can just say:

I agree with Hanlie! ;)

Keep up the great work! You CAN do it!!

Good plan for moving forward. I actually need to start on my arms as well with summer coming up!
