jokes and daily notes

Tuesday, July 17, 2012

Okay I stole this format from a spark friend but I am sure she won’t mind.
Fitness did biggest loser yoga and biggest loser and circuit routine will do more later before spark meeting tonight if I get home from the dentist inn time. I need to do more of a calorie burn to reach my 200 calorie burn goal by exercise each day.
Motivation –my wii telling me I am overweight some day that wii is going to say healthy or I am going to kill it lol
Nutrition-well diet going pretty, good. My sis brought me a food copper for my birthday. So I am chopping veggie and putting them in flat bread for my lunches with a little ranch. draessing . So I can at least eat a salad sandwich. I am loving them. Also I realize going from 7 am to 3 pm without eating is not good for me. So today I bought in cheese and Greek yogurt to eat around 11 am for a snack.
quote FOR THE Day
When things go wrong, as they sometimes will,
When the road you're trudging seems all uphill,
When the funds are low and the debts are high
And you want to smile, but you have to sigh,
When care is pressing you down a bit,
Rest! If you must-but never quit.
Life is queer, with its twists and turns,
As every one of us sometimes learns,
And many a failure turns about
When he might of won if he'd stuck it out;
Stick to your task, though the pace seems slows-
You may succeed with one more blow.

Success is failure turned inside out-
The silver tint of the clouds of doubt-
And you may never can tell how close you are,
It may be near when it seems afar;
So stick to the fight when you're hardest hit-
It's when things seem worse that YOU MUSN'T QUIT.

When things go wrong, as they sometimes will,
When the road you're trudging seems all uphill,
When the funds are low and the debts are high
And you want to smile, but you have to sigh,
When care is pressing you down a bit,
Rest! If you must-but never quit.
Life is queer, with its twists and turns,
As every one of us sometimes learns,
And many a failure turns about
When he might of won if he'd stuck it out;
Stick to your task, though the pace seems slows-
You may succeed with one more blow.

    Love the nostalgia. I laughed at the comment about plaid clothing. It reminded me of having a plaid bomber jacket with a fake lambswool collar and cuffs and rolled up jeans that were lined with plaid flannel in the 70's. emoticon

    That wii is likely shaking in its boots!!!

Love your chopper sandwich, and that you are eating on a more regular basis. You are right that it is too long to go without food.
