I didn't even bother to put in food yesterday. After a long bike ride in the morning and after getting back from Los Angeles and getting in a full body resistance training workout at the complex workout room, I knew I would lose something, though I didn't expect .6 pounds again!!!
I have 5 more weigh ins including Monday's to hit my short term goal of being in the 230's. At this pace I won't get there but I will be at about 240. So do I pump up the workouts more, cut the calories and forget about that 2 glasses of wine I want to have on Friday night?
I say no way. What I've been doing is not a diet but a liveit. I have just increased my exercise to no more than 1 1/2 a day (if you can sit on your ass saying how wonderful they dance on dancing with the stars or watching reruns of chopped you have 1 1/2 to workout) and stopped eating junk and drinking too much wine.

You GO! Forcing yourself to get off your duff (watching tv) is one of the most important steps. I came to the same conclusion...why do I need to know what Emeril is cooking on Food Network when I already know for a fact that I need to be up cooking my own Ellie Kreiger meal to be the best me I can possibly be!

I wish I was Ellie (I think she used to be a model) <http://www.elliekrieger.com/> AND <http://www.foodnetwork.com/chefs/ellie-krieger.html> I usually just invent my own or modify my old recipes for FatSecret, though.
