Home Sweet Home

< OK, well I'm back! I had a great 1 1/2 weeks in GA with my parents. They completed their first full week of BFL and are doing well. My mom lost 4 lbs and my dad lost 8 lbs in the past week. My mom is dreaming about hammer curls and bicep curls. She kept getting them backwards and in her dream, she said to herself, "No, thats not right" and then did it the correct way. I think its a good thing that she's dreaming about it. I checked with her last night and she entered all their food into fitday. I told her to try and keep it as close to 40/40/20 as possible but dont get upset if its not EXACT. So, she says she entered everything in and it was EXACTLY 40/40/20! Go figure!!! She's excited that today is free day but says they will not eat everything in the house. I think they are gonna make it!!!

Sam and Zoey (my cat and my parents dog) got along well. They really wanted to play with each other and Sam would chase behind Zoey. But, Zoey just had the feeling that she needed to protect her face from Sam. She must have been slapped by a cat in the past. But, they didn't fight and weren't jealous of each other.

So, the drive was LONG but I made it. I stopped in Atlanta and met Kate (kajole). It was a short meeting but fun. She's a riot and her pictures on tracker do not show how beautiful she really is!! She looks really good, to me, and she's doing great on her program!! We are gonna rock that cruise. I'm glad she's going to be my cruisemate!!!!

Anyway, I ate like CRAP on the drive home yesterday but it was my free day. I ate something like 3500 calories while driving and 60% of it was carbs (damned twizzlers!!!) Today, I've eaten well so far and plan on going to the gym for a 20 minute HIIT. I'm still pretty tired but think I'll be able to make it.

Everyone please put up their 5 upbeat inspirational cardio songs. I only have 2 weeks left to train for this race and would really like some good songs from you. Thanks Suz for your input already! Hope everyone is well.
