Oh, come on, seriously?

Ok, somewhat vulgar of a picture, but it was too damn funny to pass up. So, i'm about two weeks-ish into the "lifestyle modification plan" and I'm doing ok. I've definitely identified my weaknesses - mainly the days between Friday and Sunday. I was able to keep it under control for the most part this weekend - well except for Saturday night. The good news, however, would be that I saved enough points to splurge. Also, I did three days worth of exercise, so I should be ok.

Then, cut to today. I'm not sure if you work in an office environment where food is ALWAYS around, but I've never met a place like mine. We've had four birthday parties since I started in February and a parade of food in our kitchen every other day between. I could easily weigh 300 pounds if I ate all that was in front of me. Today was the absolute worst - the day the Corner Bakery cookies appeared. Not only were they chocolate chip cookies, but they were M&M chocolate chip cookies. Of course, the cookies appeared from Satan about 3PM when I was looking for a pick me up. But, I prevailed! I grabbed a "Cutie" (thanks Mom!) and went back into my office...((whimper))

The HAM of the day goes to a man I call, "Flash Dance". As I was looking up from my favorite treadmill, I noticed a man on an elliptical machine doing something which resembles the scene from "Flash Dance". The only thing missing from this workout was the water and leg warmers, but everything else - ON POINT. It was so delicious and such a mess...I've never seen someone go so fast on the machine and not fall through the floor.

The JAM of the Day goes to an oldie but goodie - The William Tell Overture. Yes, true, there's no words but the pace alone makes you want to run a triathlon...or take part in a horse race. Either way, good cardio!
