Hey all,

I am so glad that the Thanksgiving goodies are almost gone in my house. I just can’t stop eating it!! I is so good, but not so good for weight loss. We had some friends stop by and I was glad to give left overs such as wines, sparkling cider, and others! Today I started off great with eating:

1. Meal one: Protein shake, banana
2. Meal 2: cabbage, turkey and a orange

then after that I went downhill. I got home from work and had a snack with was a cup full of trail mix nuts, then I had dinner and ate way too much AGAIN!!! Do I dare mention? Ham, turkey, dressing, yams, potato salad, and greens. Yikes!! What in the world is going on. I know TOM will be here later tomorrow, so that could be my issue. Or, the over eating of sugar foods is making me crave the wrong foods and I need to nip that in the bud now.

In a bit, I will workout my abs, and upper body, but cardio… I now that will not happened because I feel so lazy right now. My mission for tomorrow is to wake up early and pop in my tae bo DVD and get to burn some serious calories and then I will work out my legs. Well, I am off for now and get that workout in so that I can play in some make-up I bought. I am trying to work a smokey eye. Wish me luck Delphine. hee hee. Maybe I will post the results. haha ha

It’s that time of the year and everyone is looking for the special someone to spend it with, right? I thank God everyday for blessing me with my hubby, but what if you are not as lucky to have the special someone? Are you tired of looking for love in the wrong places and would rather look from the comfort of your home? I have a few friends that has played around with online dating services, but the downside is that they pay a lot for the services to play match maker. Well, I came across this site and they offer great dating services with no charges at all. I was like are they for real? The site is called Smooch.com and they have great software and a huge data base that is absolutely free.

Did you all have a great Thanksgiving? I know I did and I eat way too toooooo much! OMG, I feel so gross and to top it off I got my butt on the scale to see the damage. Yikes!! I am not even saying a word, but to get my butt started on my Christmas Challenge ASAP!! I just couldn’t help myself on Thursday and even today. We had some leftovers. I did that on purpose so that I would not have to cook for the family and I would just have to cook my meals for me. Well, that kind of back fired on me today because I came home from work and I was too lazy to make my meals, so I ate more.

I am so glad that I took my month progress pictures before Thanksgiving otherwise I would have scared you all, lol. Check out my flicker photos. The photo of me in the red shorts are the last pics. I just need to bug my hubby to learn how to past my before and after together.

Tomorrow is my start off fresh day to my Christmas challenge to lose 10 pounds before Dec. 25th. I have to do it!! I have to, I HAVE TO!! I really want to see progress on my photos of me getting leaner next month. Well, I am going to browse the web in a bit to start off my christmas shopping. I refuse to hit the stores. I can’t stand the holiday crowds. Plus I work retail too.

Before I go you all have to let me know how you did this Thanksgiving? Did you:

1. Eat Clean and Healthy?
2. Enjoyed yourself, but at moderation.
3. Said Oh Hell, screw it, I am eating and ate way too much?

My answer was the last one. Oh hell!! I ate like a pig. Darn! but it was so good!! hee hee

It’s Friday!! How are you feeling after all of that Thanksgiving celebrating? Did you eat too much and ready to hit the gym? I know I am. Well, here is a fit tip that I am sure every woman would want to have which are perky breast. Ever since I lost the weight my chest lost every bit of perkiness I had. So, I am willing to try every trick in the fit tip book to achieve it.

I was browsing on Oxygen, I know that is one of my favorite fitness resources because they are full of great for training tips for us losing weight and leaning out the body. But they showed a great way to workout the chest area and get them firm. The movement looks tough, but the results will be awesome!! Check it out and give it a try. I know I will on my next training day for the upper body. Below is the picture of the workout. Click here to see it in its entirety.

If that’s doesn’t help, then I guess I’m is off for a breast augmentation, lol.

Good morning!! I can’t believe I got up as planned and in a few seconds I will be getting ready to get my exercise in before heading into work. Today is my leg day and I am going to get my cardio in with Tae Bo amped, the core workout. I hope it burns calories!! I have a feeling it is going to be a slow day because a lot of shoppers will be waiting to the day after Thanksgiving sales! I know I would.

I got on the scale and no movement! Grrrr! I guess, I know why? No, I did not cheat. Yesterday I mentioned that PMS is here and TOM will be arriving next week. So when that happened I begin to retain water! So I will get a better read for my weight loss progress next week. Tonight I will try my best to post my progress pics, but I will not make promises because I have to start cooking like a mad woman. hee hee! Well, I better get breakfast started since my little has walked into the office.

Chat soon!

What do you think of the photo to the left? I thought hum.. What a unique way to display your photos? Instead of the traditional frame this site I found can display any of your favorite photos and custom print them on your pillow case, shower curtain, Photo Blankets, and even throw pillows too. I was like no way, but yes they can. I guess it would be a great gift for a family that has just had a new born baby, or a housewarming gift. Or, for you pet lovers out there it would be a great way to display you pet that has been in the family for many years onto a throw pillow to display in the house too.

I found that the site is very easy to use and very simple to custom order your items of you choice. They even offer customer text to be printed on your item too. I also found that this is the only site that offers custom shower curtains to display photo too. I was like shower curtains? What could you possibly place on there? Then I was thinking maybe a nice panoramic from your last tropical or Caribbean vacation. Check this out! This could also be a great way to complete some of that Christmas shopping and to avoid the after Thanksgiving rush.

I just had to check in one more time to let you all know I got my workouts in and eat right on plan. Yahoooo!! I managed to get in 25 minutes of cardio and I also weight trained the following:

1. Biceps curls and hammer curls
2. triceps
3. Lats
4. Arnold press
5. prench press
6. shoulders
7. Abs!! I actually worked out my abs! I picked up the January issue of Oxygen and found several great workouts to get me in shape over the next 4-5 weeks!! Pick up this issue to start you New Years planning! I kind of started my goals for the new year, but I will discuss them later once I get them all written down.

Well, I am off to get ready for bed. I have to working in the afternoon until 8:00pm then I will be coming home to cook my A$$ off for our Thanksgiving get together at our home. So, this means I need to workout before going into work. Yikes! I better go to bed now because I am not a morning person.

Good night!
