Weight Loss Wednesday

How are ya'll doing on portion control, water intake, and not snacking after dinner?  Me?  Well...this weekend was a birthday celebration after celebration for our little guy and I just can't resist cake!  Can you?  No? I thought not.  Then of course there was that blasted football game that just begs for munchies, and not healthy ones, either.  *sigh* My scale isn't talking to me again because I forgot to invite her to the birthday party.  Oh well...tomorrow is another day!  I did keep up on my water intake (how could you not with a cute cup in hand?!) and portion control...well...let's just say the portions did the controlling. 

Good news! I got all of my blood work results back and I'm not going to die any time soon. Praise the Lord!  So I think I've procrastinated enough. I am going to start exercising. *gasp*  I know.  I didn't think I heard myself correctly, either.  But I keep reading that if you eat less and move more you'll do yourself a world of good so I think I'm going to give it a try. I have a Leslie Sanson "Walk the Walk" inspirational dvd that I've used before and it's pretty easy on a gal who hates exercise.  I plan to walk one mile, four days each week for starters.  There's a two mile program that I may throw in here and there for variety.  I love to go for walks on our country road, but if I have to bundle up like that little guy on "A Christmas Story" then forget it!  I'll wait until Spring.  "Oh Spring?!  Where are you?!"  How many more days until Spring?

So let's recap.  Portion control.  Water (8 - 8 oz. glasses a day).  NO after dinner snacks.  Move more...eat less.  Got it?  Who's with me on this?  Ferris? ...  Anyone? ...  Ferris?
