My Allies
ALLELUIA525



This morning, my daughter and I were running late and had to "run" to the bus stop...uphill. I was feeling pretty proud of myself at how well I was doing when my daughter yelled out, "My legs are killing me!"

Tonight, I was on my Gazelle and watching TV. I looked down at the computer tracker to see how long I had been working out and noticed that my speed was above 5 miles per hour. I kept checking it every so often and it was usually between 5.2 and 5.6 mph. I was shocked...when I first started using the Gazelle regularly I usually worked out at 3.8-4.4 mph. I was feeling pretty good.

Then the new Alli commercial came on (the one with Wynonna) and she said, "I'm doing it right this time". I shook my head no then held up my hands in victory and said, "I'm doing it right this time!"

Thank you SP and my SP friends for being my allies!

Chef Meg's Zucchini Muffins
Submitted By: CHEF_MEG

These muffins are very filling!

The whole wheat flour makes for a dense muffin, which I like. You only need to eat one! If you want a lighter muffin try using whole wheat pastry flour, which is more finely ground and available in the bulk bins at larger grocery stores.
