Welcome to My Personal Fitness Challenge Day 32

Welcome to My Personal Fitness Challenge Day 32

Yet another day closer to my weight loss goal under my belt.  Good day today again. I decided to try on a shirt that I have not worn in months.  I really like it, to my delight it fit!  Started my day in a crew meeting at 7 am.  I love my job and individually the guys are great but I always feel like I am in front of the firing squad when I talk in front of the whole crew.  I rushed to my next meeting at the Hall.  Stopped at Starbucks and purchased a grande Pumpkin Spice latte, full sweet with whipping cream and a fat slice of pumpkin loaf and a dark roast black.  Got to my meeting and presented the Pumpkin coffee and cake to the Birthday girl in my department that is the glue that keeps us all together.  It was a win win really. I got to enjoy the sweet smell of the October treat that I am abstaining from this year and I got to say Happy Birthday to a great person too!  Happy Birthday Kelly, I appreciate you!

My second time having yogurt for breakfast,  I had it in a glass bowl and I grabbed it and took it to work with me.  Everyone was asking me what it was.  Most thought it was whip cream, lol.  It might as well have been because I really enjoyed it.  After lunch I was in the coffee room, emptying my cup and filling my water jug when I started chatting with Brad.  He has just blown my socks off in what seems like over night he has dropped 85 lbs. He looks fantastic and it seems everyone in the office talks about it.  He noticed changes in me today.  He hadn't heard about my fitness challenge.  We chatted about it, he always makes me feel good about what I am doing, no matter the topic.  Thanks for being you Brad!

Finally headed off to Team Fitness for my group workout.  It was really great tonight.  I like the workouts lately seem more challenging and I really feel like I had a workout.  Headed over to Bed Bath and Beyond right after the workout to shop for my mandolin slicer.  There were so many choices.  I decided to do some more research.  I don't want a cheap one because we have a great dehydrator and I think we will use it a lot, but I don't want to over buy either.  Hmmm.  Sometimes not being able to buy on impulse is a drag.  Oh well, I will get one soon enough.

Looking forward to our dinner rotation Katherine.  I am also looking forward to some new recipes and adding in some of the missing foods I am unable to have now.
