Lose weight the fun way.

Posted on December 5, 2016

Hi Everybody!!!

I'm sooo proud of myself!!! I got in over 6,000 steps today!!! I almost didn't get past 5,075 til I started watching Showtime At The Apollo with Steve Harvey. When a few of the old school artists started performing, I started dancing, & then VOILA: over 6,000+ steps!!! :-)

CONFESSION TIME: I also went off track & ate 2 grilled cheese sandwiches. OOPS!!! LOL!!! I had a taste for it, but once I ate one, I had to have another one!!! They tasted SOOO SOOO GOOD!!! LOL!!! I'll probably have a gain tomorrow, but it's all good. I wanted it, so I had it, & now I'm back on track. Hey: such as life!!! IT IS WHAT IT IS!!! LOL!!!

Now, back to my results:

Accountability Assignment - 12/5/16

DAY 6 - 5,000 Steps Daily For 30 Days Challenge

Completed 6,324 steps (walked 3.16 miles; burned 2,861 calories) - DONE

Jumped on mini trampoline 100 times - DONE

I'm gonna stay on track getting my steps in daily, but I'm not gonna write a blog unless I have something interesting to share. I'm exhausted now, so I'm going to bed. I should sleep real good tonight!!! Hope you all have a good night!!! DAY 6 - COMPLETE!!! NITETY NIGHT!!! :-)

Comment Now!

Hi, every one slips. I am so proud of you for not letting one small grilled cheese blow you day! Today I have started the three day diet. So far I am hungery lol, but it is something different. :)

Thanks Candy!!! Good luck on the 3-day diet (AKA Military Diet). I tried it years ago, & in 3 days, I lost 4 pounds. When I did it, I was hungry too!!! LOL!!! Hope it works for you. :-)

Keep writing your blogs...they're SO encouraging!!! I love to see you write, "Kitchen is closed." Sometimes I can almost hear your voice when I go into the kitchen AFTER HOURS saying, "Kitchen is closed"!!! You are doing so well with your step count. Have you considered joining one of the StepBet contests? I also watched Steve Harvey host "Showtime At The Apollo" tonight. It was really entertaining!!! What happened to the 16 year old young lady, who sang "Rise Up"? I DEFINITELY thought SHE should have been in the Top 5!!! I was glad that Matthew won. He did an AWESOME job saying the piano...a virtual virtuoso!!! He reminded me of Stevie Wonder (his mannerisms), etc. I also enjoyed the guy with the "unique" hairdo from the small town. He could REALLY sing!!! The young man, who made various sounds with his mouth was good too! Steve Harvey is an OUTSTANDING host...I see why he is so popular these days!!! I just wonder.."When does he sleep?" He is involved in ALOT!!! HE'S the "hardest working man in show business!" Going to bed now. I have an early day planned for tomorrow. I'll write soon to let you know about some contractors for the Water Company whose employee ran into my house with a Mini X (Excavator), while the other one "messed up" the electrical system in my house, forcing me to require an electrician!!!

Erica, thanks sooo much for your positive words of encouragement!!! I'll keep writing then..... :-) I laughed when you said you can almost hear me saying "KITCHEN IS CLOSED"!!! Hey: That can be one way to keep you out of the kitchen!!! LOL!!! (Just joking!!! LOL!!!) I have thought about joining a StepBet, but because I'm not sure how my back is gonna be from day to day, I'll just get my steps in alone until I know for sure it'll be a sure thing. The last time I made a contract with myself, I completed it, but shortly thereafter, my back started acting up again..... Girl, I really enjoyed watching Showtime At The Apollo last night too!!! I agree with everything you said too. I was also wondering what happened to that young lady. She sang Rise Up beautifully!!! Well, the audience definitely didn't have anything to do with the Top 5 choices. Usually, all the ones who got the approval of the audience came onstage, & they chose the final winner. It wasn't done that way last night; hopefully, they'll go back to the original way of choosing the winner in the upcoming episodes.... :-) And YES!!! I LOVE ME SOME STEVE HARVEY!!! LOL!!! He's hilarious on Family Feud too!!! LOL!!! He really does work a lot!!! GOTTA MAKE THAT MONEY!!! LOL!!! And damage to your home??? WHAT??? THAT'S CRAZY!!! Hope everything works out okay for you.... HAPPY TUESDAY!!! Have a wonderful day my friend!!! :-)
