Morning update:
I never got here last night. It was one of those days where I ran around all day long. I got home and didn't feel very well. Food wasn't bad, but wasn't as disciplined as I would have liked it to be. I didn't check in with God much during the day and that seems to be key for me. We did have a discussion last night when I was tempted to head for the cupboards. It's far too easy to stray off and try to do things my own way. We all know how well that works.

My workout yesterday was with the stability ball. I used the DVD that came with it and got a really good core workout. I woke up this morning still not feeling very well. I have an eye appointment so my workout will be later in the afternoon. Tuesdays are cardio days and it's pouring outside so I will probably get on the treadmill. If I'm not feeling any better, I may just do some light cardio from Wii Fit. I do a body check with Wii Tillie every morning. She says I'm 39 today. I wish. LOL! With the Wii Fit you set BMI goals. I hit mine this morning. Tillie is worried about me. I assured her I was fine and set a new goal for 2 weeks from today. But my official small term goals are for the first of every month.

Afternoon update:
Things are going well so far today. I've kept busy doing things that I like to do. I've pretty much had the day to myself. Did some work on things for the syrup festival. Tonight we'll probably be boiling. And . . . of course, there is Biggest Loser. I've going to do some light cardio while I'm watching it so I can get my workout in today.

Evening update:
I bounced around on the stability ball tonight while I was watching Biggest Loser. I'm still not feeling all that great. I discovered that yesterday's workout really did work me out. I definitely felt it in my core tonight while I was balancing on the stability ball. I'm off to stretch before getting ready for bed.
