What I'm Reading This Week #28
Hello and Happy Friday my beautiful peeps! Well, I guess I'm glad we did the tree last weekend because just as we were getting ready to leave Monday for a nursery field trip, the HOA maintenance dude shows up- no call, no email, just hoping we were home with no real knowledge of what needed to be done. He chatted with the Mr, did a few caulks and took pics to get it submitted for siding replacement. After that we got on the road to go to this big nursery. Am I the only one that sweats off their sunscreen in sheets?? I swear I probably looked like I was having a stroke to passersby. So I bought some powder sunscreen for our faces hoping that will help. I was bummed this one great powder foundation I used years ago isn't around anymore since it had built in spf so I hope this stuff is comparable. Did a lot of stuff in the garden and it cracks me up how such a small space can take up so much of my time when I have chores to do. The Mr's ban...
That is hilarious (the body suit and also the robot voice). I just remember when I first became aware of a fitness fad I was maybe 6 or 7 and it was summer so I pretty much had to go anywhere my Mom wanted to go. She was into Jazzercise so I got to go and watch all the ladies exercise to jazzy music. If only I'd had a phone with games or a tablet back then because I just remember being nothing but bored since I wasn't quite at the age where I was interested in women dancing around like that, lol.
ReplyDeleteBut personally, it was the cabbage soup diet that I jumped on. It did work because you basically are starving the whole time and they claim you can eat all the soup you want but the joke is that you don't want to eat any soup at all! Ugh!
I've done so many. They all work for while, even the sweat suit, but they are difficult to maintain and often you lose water weight and maybe muscle. Healthy habits are the way to go but if you were put on one of these fad diets in elementary school, as I was, you learn bad habits that haunt you your whole life. I've learned that any system that requires you to pay money or join a membership to learn its 'secrets' is probably a scam to make money for someone else and is unlikely to help me change lifelong habits.
ReplyDeleteI think the Jane Fonda VHS tapes and the Thigh Master were the two big ones that were all the rage for many years. I do remember the sweat suit though! LOL
