Death is not something to take lightly..........
I was reading this little article in Men's Health Mag while I was on the elip trainer.. it said that Successful exercisers dont think about having to exercise..they just get out there and do it. then says Dr. Sandra Cousins an exercise gerontologist at the University of Alberta said after conducting 50 interviews she found that people who relied on Self-pep talks to motivate themselves to exercise remained inactive, "they are just not ready" But people who got encouragement and motivation from family and friends or co-workers are more successful ( Amen for all of us here !! haha ) It said... Need a jump start?? According to a study in Journal of sport and exercise physiology.. "Writing about YOUR OWN mortality can boost your motivation.." Write down how the thought of your own Death makes you feel and read it in the morning.. that should get you moving !!! I am not sure about writting about my own death will get me moving in the morn.... I think about all the frenz and motivators here I have to Answer too each day gets me moving enough !! haha... |

I go to my friends house to meet up with he and his wife and other friends.... he has a nice deck in his back yard.. there has been many nights I have stayed there after too many beers..... in the spare room....In the last 4 years....I have probably stayed 50 times.. we would have "Deck Therapy" every Sat night.... they have also tried to set me up in the past with his wife's friends...( which some has been good outcomes...others not.) Well....so now they leave that me finding happiness up to me.... haha... But since November I have only been over there like....5 times... and last time was a month ago..... not that our friendship is strained.....it is well...Deck Therapy goes from 5 -6 pm til...3- 4 am.... ( even in winter ( he has a deck propane area heater ) and..well we live in Houston it gets down to 50 in the "winter" ...hahaa..) well We drink....it is our escape from...work and just relax and talk about every and anything... So...I HAVE been keeping distance cuz...I dont drink anymore ( beer ) and..last weekend I had 4 drinks...and peanuts.... and well...it set me back two lbs.... Well....tonight I am going over there........tonight I ride that rail....of Do I have 2 drinks.. and switch to water....or....do I PRETEND I am drinkin mixed drinks.... ( vodka soda ) looks like water...haha ....or do I just fess up and say.....hey Bro...I have lost 33 lbs in 2 mo...... I need to keep going til I get there....... I am going and gonna hang out all night.....watch the Rockets game..... and....will be happy go lucky myself....and just fight back ribbing I will get for a while about Not wanting or not being able to drink.... Cuz I know the first thing outta one of their mouths will be... Well SEE that is even more reason to celebrate...33 lbs !!! I will rebuff with..well I wanna see 35 by monday......so sorry. Uggggh...

I agree with every one else. Its ok to just pass. Have a water or diet soda and drink that and be merry. No need to drink. I think your friends will understand. Stick to your guns!

Yes.. I wanted to drop in quicky (prob. too late - but maybe will help for next time) that I take good mineral water (sparkly) and drink it with lime.. It feels special and you can also get zilch mixers (google them.. can't put link here) and throw some of the margarita flav. in the mineral water and have non booze GREAT drink..
This is what I do most of the time.. you can also make virgin mojitos.. Have a GREAT time! |

Hey JRod,
Great weekend wishes right back at ya'! I will definitely be continuing my LC eating. I'm finding the eating part easier and easier. Even the exercise is becoming routine which is great. It's the frickin' social drinking that presents more of a challenge than anything. I'm so conditioned to have a glass of wine or a drink when I'm eating out, etc....Exercising willpower is good for the soul though ![]() Keep up the great work on your 2x a day workout challenge with Flipz! ![]() |

Hey, hope you had a good time at your friend's place...I understand what you're saying about the drinking temptation. Being in social settings w/ friends, especially if they're drinking, is the hardest part for me.

Just stopping in to see how your doing. Sounds like you had a fun weekend. Be sure to drink LOTS of water and hopefully the scale will be nice to you.

"stepped on it as "lightly" as possible... " LOL, I also used to step on the scales lightly..now I just hit them with all my weight, rather get the truth if the scale is up. Sigh...that is life.

Well that sounds like a great day! I'm still amazed by these 2x a day workouts. I want to be like you when I grow up!
![]() Now I checked out that menu for today. I am so loving the wraps! I just ordered the low carb tortillas from netrition....mama lupe's...omg they are deeeelish! By the way, I didn't see any breakfast at all. Are you skipping breakfast regularly or was this just an oversight because you were rushing?? Skipping meals is a no no JRod! Quote:
