Good morning & happy Monday y'all

WOW, look at all this continued success! This has got to be the most motivating thread on the Planet! Everyone has their focus strong, goals set in place and the healthy living blasting full on!

I hit the gym Friday, Saturday AND Sunday... each day pushing myself a lil' harder each time. I kept telling myself, "another minute" to my stationary bike and elipitical, before you know it, I had added 5 extra minutes to both! I tried out a couple new legs machines (one kinda worked like a thighmaster and I probably looked like a porn star, the other was a leg press).

Training was:

Stationary bike (20 minutes ~ 3 miles & 175 calories gone)
leg and arm machines (20 minutes)
crunches (60 crunches)
Eliptical machine (20 minutes ~ 130 calories gone)

After my workout, I went to the grocery store and loaded up on lots of fruits & veggies for the week:

baby spinach
cucumber
tomato
zuichini
sweet potatoes
corn on the cob
celery
baby carrots
bananas
gala apples
strawberries
blackberries
pineapple

I'm still doing really well on my points... managing to stay 5 - 10 points under every day! On evening I even got a tostada from Taco Bell for 6 points... and still managed to have 4 points left to spare!

Meals planned for today:

Breakfast:
a toasted 100 calorie multigrain english muffin
a banana
coffee with a splash of french vanilla creamer

Lunch:
Tomato soup with 10 saltine crackers
fresh fruit

Dinner:
probably grab a sandwich on the way to the 2nd job

Snacks:
carrots
celery stick with peanut butter
