Good Morning & Happy Halloween!!

In the last few years Halloween has been very difficult for me.  I have grandsons and I buy candy for them to come and 'trick or treat' at my house.  We don't get very many visitors at all, so what ever is left inevitably ends up in my room and I munch on it until it's gone.  Adding even more to my butt and hips.  My mind KNOWS that this is what will happen, but I do it anyway. 

This year, I am determined  to break that nasty habit.  This year, I will go to them after work and bring them each a small treat, then I will drive home empty handed.  This year I have made sure there is no candy in my house.  So, this year, all that extra will not end up on my thighs. 

This evening when I get home I will be pushing play on my Slim in 6 Start it Up! DVD.   When I first got this DVD, a couple weeks ago, I was really amped up and raring to go.  I put my routine into the SuperGym at www.teambeachbody.com and went at it with gusto.  It took me a week to realize that advancing in the workout like the calendar suggested was just too much for me.  One day of Start it Up! and straight into Ramp it Up! was really a lot harder than it sounds.  So, I backed off and went back to Start it Up! and there I will stay until it becomes too easy for me.  My arms are my weakest muscles and they still SCREAM about 1/2 way through it.  I am confident that it will get easier. :)

I am noticing that my body is changing.  My clothes are fitting differently.  I feel like I've lost weight.  We will see what my scale and tape measure says on Monday. :)
