Updates of holiday cheer

You know those times when you feel like you've hit a wall? Well, I hit that again the other day. I'm not sure what happened for about a week, but I was feeling so very weak! I gave into a lot of temptation! However, something happened again where I felt great, and was so motivated!

First, I went to Olive Garden and, oh, how I wanted pasta SO bad! Heck, it's Olive Garden, who the heck wouldn't?! But no, I stuck to 1.5 bowls of salad (not the big plastic bowl,  I ate about 2/3 of that thing!) 1 bowl of soup and 2 breadsticks! At the O.G. I'd say that's pretty damn good!

The very next night, was the challenge of Outback Steakhouse! Really? Outback? I met my party there, and what was sitting on the table? The YUMMY bread as well as a bloomin' onion! *sigh* Well, I held it to one slice of bread and 2, count it TWO pieces of bloomin onion! Yeah...you try that! Oi! Along with my Rib Eye steak (lowest cal on the menu!) I enjoyed a nice side of veggies! Mm, broccoli!! So, that was not an easy weekend, b\y any stretch!

Then, my dad and I have a traidition, one week we go downtown, then the next we go to MOA! Let me say, somehow, we both are on diets, yet somehow, I eat more when I am with him than when I'm not! Hmm...Now, don't get me wrong, I didn't do terribly, but, I could have done MUCH better! I know...I'm getting coal for that!

As for workouts, ya know...they're going! My run is getting SO much better! When I'm doing my leaps, I feel like an idiot, I'm not gonna lie, but boy oh boy is it helping! I've taken two minutes off my run so far!! Heck to the yes!

My new goal, is to get my arms nice and...well...nice! It's a definite trouble spot on my body, but I know I can do it, with my help! :)

Other than that folks, that's really about all. Christmas is in a little over a week, and there is SO much prep to do! Wrapping, cooking, enjoying! I hope you all have a very merry Christmas, I'm thinking...New Years Resolutions....
