Hump Day Poll: Your Childhood Go To's

Candy Edition! I was thinking about my Mom's 50th birthday party.  It was a wonderful memory because I worked really hard on it and planned it for 9 months to make it great for her.  Because she didn't have a 25th wedding anniversary, I knew I was going to go all out for her 50th.  I had family, friends, people from high school, co-workers (ones I knew she liked! 😁) and I loved seeing her face when she would see people she hadn't seen in a long time.  One of the biggest hits that people talked about for years after were the retro candy baskets on every table.  I bought ones that I knew were her favorites as well as looking at what were popular at the time.   People lost their minds and were squealing like kids when they saw their favorites. I got all of the candy through Candy Favorites website and it's always so fun to look through. I was perusing the site, I was thinking of what stuff I'd want in the baskets on my table for a party like Mom's: Cher...

Re-tweak

I talked with the Mr this weekend about the possibility of doing separate workouts since the harder ones seemed to be working for him but not for me.  He said that he didn't credit the weight loss to the type of workout but rather the fact that he actually tracked his food and measuring instead of "intuitive eating."  So the schedule lightens up this week anyway and I posted the re-tooled schedule on the workout tab.

You've seen my schedules over the past months, you know I don't wuss out when it comes to working out.  Right now both of us agree that we can't seem to handle the extra high impact stuff right now.  We'll be burning the same amount of calories just doing it with something that isn't going to make us not be able to walk the next day.  That's the thing about this journey, you have to be willing to listen to your body and push it just far enough to get results but not so far that you are flirting with injury.  Last week was flirting with injury.  We're excited about it and know that listening to our bodies will ultimately pay off.  I'll update the workout section when I figure out what we're going to do.  I'm thinking rowing might be able to get put back into the mix which is exciting since I had to do away with it when the thumb was feeling its worst.  I'm ready to row baby dolls!

Let's make it a kick ass week!
