Spring is coming
It was a glorious day today of 72 degrees today. I got that fever today. Truly a splendid day for just getting out and enjoying it. Even if it was just to sit out on the porch or take a stroll down the road. After the last couple of days we had of cold weather, it was a pleasant surprise. The hubby and I decided to grab a bite at Panera and utilize their outside tables. The wind was blowing, the sun out and the temperature was heavenly. Didn't last too long however, because the temperature dropped fast. Back down to the 40's by 5 pm. Hubby and I headed out again for our trip to the gym. I have to say, it really is a boost to have a workout partner. I am so very proud of him. He has lost a significant amount of weight and size since he's started the gym. Almost puts me to shame, LOL. It's so much easier for men. I had to sit it out for the week of the surgery. Not to take anything away from him because he really works hard at accomplishing his goal and it's a huge encouragement for me. I can report that my clothes are fitting a little better. I figure by spring I should be very close to where I want to be. I have gotten used to eating small portions and now it's to the point where I actually get full faster and off smaller amounts. It's a lifestyle. Not a diet. This has to continue with me for the rest of my life if I want to maintain. I have some ways to go but I know I am on the right track and I have my partner to push me along the way.

Okay, why am I always jealous of you for something? The weather's not been good here in NY state. Today it's 18 degrees. And the flu is going around my workplace. Yuck.
You know, I was wondering how your weight loss was going, but I didn't want to mention it because I knew you couldn't exercise a lot because of the shoulder. Glad it's going well so far. It's also nice you and your husband can work out together. I've tried working out with my husband before (he's in very good shape, and works out regularly), but I never keep up with it for long.
You know, it's the same thing for me with the food. I get full off much less, and too much sweets make me sick (http://mysesaworuban.blogspot.com/2008/02/my-craving-for-sweets-is-way-down.html).
18 degrees? I would not know how to handle that. I am not a winter person. I was born in the winter months but not at all accustomed to the freezing temps. I still haven't set a real workout schedule. I try to do Mon., Wed., and Fri., but it doesn't always work out like that.
