Non Scale Victories This Week

During last night's LIIFT 4 Shoulders workout, I saw an improvement over last weeks shoulder presses.  I was unable to do the 2nd and 3rd sets last week overhead after about 3-4 presses.  My left shoulder would literally fall like I'd lost all muscle control with 10 lb weights.  Yesterday I used the same 10 lbs and it wasn't until the 7th rep on the second set that I started to feel bad fatigue but pushed through.  On the third set my shoulders were shot but I was still able to push overhead even if slower.  I pushed to fatigue but didn't have that dangerous muscle drop I had before. The zinnias I grew from seed are mostly in full bloom and I took some pics before cutting some to put in a little vase.

What I'm Reading This Week #48

Good Lord, that number means we have about 4 weeks left this year.  WHERE has 2017 gone!?!  Are we the only ones that feel like it has rocketed by?  It's December 1st!  *faints*

Those of you who do advent calendars, don't forget to open your window!  ;-)

Enough of my end of year babbling, let's rocket into...


8 Simple Hacks So You Don't Overeat During the Holidays  (So feeling like a manatee in a food coma isn't the point?)

11 Ways to Embrace the "Hygge" Lifestyle and Find More Joy  (Basically candles, blankets and lots of baked goods with hot beverages.  Isn't that called the holidays?)

This Man Who Can’t See Past His Girlfriend’s Weight Needs To Take Several Seats  (I can see both sides because we like what we like but grow a pair and end it.  If she loses weight "for him" then she will be a prisoner feeling like he's constantly food policing her (if he doesn't do it already) and then she'll either be miserable or develop an eating disorder by sneaking food when he's not there.  No sympathy for you dude.)

10 Ways to Practice Self-Care This Weekend (That Don't Involve Spas)  (Does curling up under the blanket with tea and binge-watching Hallmark Christmas movies count?)

What Does Magnesium Really Do For You?  (I take Natural Calm for leg cramps and I don't know if it helps for that but sometimes it helps get things 'moving' if you get my drift.)

Cinnamon Has a Surprising Health Benefit  (This is good news...LOVE it!)

Show Your Girlfriends Some Love This Christmas Pampering Mason Jars  (This is SO cute and such a fun thing to have on hand for unexpected guests too!)

How to Paint Kitchen Cabinets  (Just the title of that post probably made the color drain from the Mr's face.)

We're going a-wassailing this weekend so not super sure what all that will entail, I'll be sure to fill you in Monday.

Any plans for the first weekend of December?
