NSV!!!

I forgot to mention that my blood pressure when I went to the Dr. on Monday was the lowest it has ever been in my adult life... 90/56 (does that still technically count as alive?). That was pretty cool... and my last recorded Dr. Office weight was 174 and I was 154 fully clothed (including boots!) on monday, which was also pretty cool.

Life is mundane. The fridge is fixed, I've got the itch to buy another motorcycle that I can't afford, we're going to meet with a financial planner today, the kids are healthy, the dog is shedding up a storm and there is ALWAYS laundry to be done.

Workout this morning was supposed to have been self guided spinning but my MP3 player wouldn't turn on when I got to the gym this morning (I suspect a dead battery) so it was 45 minutes on the treadmill instead. The first 20 was a very long hill that I walked at 4.1mph, the next 20 was another hill (increasing grade) that I ran at 5.5-6.0... the final minutes were a solid 6.0mph run. Did crunches, oblique crunches, swiss-ball hand-leg pass crunches, supermen, alternating supermen and I was spent.

Juju said yesterday that she gave up the cream in her coffee and the holiday weight came off. I know I need to shake up my diet a bit again... I'm shaking up my exercise routine as well, but my diet has been stagnant for a while, so its gotta happen too... so where do I go? Do I give up my morning n/f latte? Do I give up caffeine all together? I really believe that I eat well 90% of the time, and I KNOW its what I do MOST OF THE TIME that matters, its just a matter of keeping that most of the time really MOST of the time.

If anyone has any dietary suggestions I am very open to any and all wacko ideas!!!
