Six Days!

That's what I have left to go, for the 100-Day Tracking Challenge!
I've come a long way, baby:)

Yesterday's revisit to the Jello sugar free Rice Puddings, went well.  I had two little pudding cups, and 2 Lactase Enzyme chews, (one right before each).  The result is...I had to get up several times during the night to go to the bathroom, (as if I had drank tons of water) which translates into finally starting to get rid of this bloated stomach, "so it seems." I will continue to document my experience with these chews, throughout the week.

I'm still tight with asthma and very achy sciatica-wise, but I intend to do an upper body workout.

I finished the book last night, "A Cry in the Night" by Mary Higgins Clark. I liked the story, it definitely had my attention throughout, but about 75% into it, I had figured out who the mystery person was.  I was hoping for a last minute twist, but there wasn't any.  Just the same, it was an interesting read.

I will most probably go pick up my new reading glasses later on, if they are ready.  I will post again later on.

10:41 A.M.
It's been a pretty productive morning. I started off with a five minute warm-up from Leslie's Sansone's "Short Cuts" video, followed by two full segments of "I Want Those Arms" for a total of 31 minutes, including cool down stretches.

Then I showered, makeup, dressed, made coffee and breakfast for son, and I'm now washing my first load.

I would like to be able to go for a walk, but it depends on when I finish washing.

Well, I will update again, later.

5:32 PM:
I'm having a tough one today, just want to eat everything in sight. So, I came here to focus on the positives.

I took a walk to the library, I purposely chose the branch that's farther from me. Walk: 1.90 miles.

I thought I'd try a different author this time, Joy Fielding's "Charley's Web." One of the reviews promises "twists & turns" we shall see.

Weekends are tough, I feel like a fish out of water. I washed and did a few other chores, trying to get my mind off food. I think I'm going to attack some veggies with butter spray after I write this.

My old TV died today, it was over 14 years old, it's been showing signs of sickness these last few weeks, I'd turn it on and the images were extra large, I couldn't even see the volume displayed on it.  Then this morning, the close caption was upside down, LOL!  We knew it was time to say good-bye.  DH brought up the one from downstairs, which is newer, and it's working just beautifully.

I will be back a little later to post my total for the day.
