The Captain is gone fishing all week.
Of course I'm missin' him, BUT it allows me the perfect time and opportunity to get back on track. This is what shall be done:
1. No drinking all week
2. Back to running every other day
3. Going back to yoga - it's been a while since the rib drama
I'm tellin' ya - just by cutting out the booze, I am putting it out there that I will drop 2 lbs this week. I weighed in on Monday at 134. I want to get back and stay at 130. Don't worry, I'm not obsessing about the numbers. I am actually quite pleased that after the last weekends festivities (that started Wed and ended Sunday night with Steak & Lobster) I am still at 134.
People always ask "How did you do that?" My answer is PORTIONS! When there is amazing food around, just have a few bites. And load up on the veggies/fruit. Honestly, I am not good at controling booze portions, but that's a whole different Oprah!

Yeah, the booze will get your every time. You're brave axing it for a week LOL
Sounds like a good track to be on. I need to go to yoga too! Do you notice that if you're away from it for too long that you hip flexor muscles tighten? That's where I notice it the most.
(absence makes the heart grow fonder...right??!!)
okay - please dedicate an entire post to tell us how and when you and The Captain got back together.
I'm with Jennifer. Have just been skipping through your previous posts to check but I think you were just going to slip this one in weren't you? Did you think we wouldn't notice? I'm ready..
I'm with Jennifer. I had no idea you and the Captain were back together.
A wedding officiant? The Captain is back? You rocked your marathon! I have lots of catching up to do.
Nice job cutting the booze this week. I may try to follow your lead.
I'm so glad to hear you and the Cap are back on! :)
I don't like that P word. Portions. *sigh* Ok, that's what I'm commited to this week. Controlling portions!
Um I second what jennifer said...the Captain?? How??
So...yeah, I'm with the others...you and the Captain are back together?! I mean, there were indications of this, but I didn't want to ask b/c I know you've wanted to cut back ont eh dating talk here, but please fill us in!
I can believe the no booze=2 lbs. Grr. I think I'm going to go in an official "cut back" during December. I don't eat too badly, but the booze really packs it on.
I have such a hard time with portion control. It is something I really need to work. Looks like you got it down.
You must be looking forward to getting back to yoga.
The Captain is back in the picture? Who knew?!
I am seriously thinking about getting a job at the Bikram place here! I would quit sports and become a yogini!
I second all the nosey comments above. Tell us! But only if you want to.
Ok good. I'm not the only one, I thought I had totally missed something... The Captain? Very intriguing...
a whole different oprah? LOL I know what you mean about portion sizes. We try to load up the good stuff, but it's not always easy. Good luck getting the 4 lbs down.
Sounds like you've got a good plan! Who needs Oprah when we have POM!!!!!
Sigh. This is just what I needed to hear. The wine extravaganza after Portland has continued with the wine we shipped home...and I wonder why I'm up 4 lbs.
hi p.o.m sounds like a great plan you got going on!!
Do tell us about the Captain!!! Inquiring minds wanna know!!!
M
I hear ya on the portions.
It's amazing the things that can be accomplished when a significant other isn't around for a few days:)
I want you discipline!
Good job on not obsessing about the numbers! Keep it up :)
Did I miss a post? When did you and the Capn get back together? What's the deal?
I was going to ask the same question as heather ;-). **Insert smoochie noises here**
You'll be down in no time! I'm off the bottle until the holidays... I so need to lose like 15 or 20. I hear mooing sounds when I look at my thighs *ugh*
What? The Cap is back? *drumming fingers on desk* What's this all about, hmmmm?
Yeah, I think everyone is dying to know the Capt story. LOL!
You'll drop the extra ell bees, you always do ;)
