Back On Track

Well maybe next week - or better yet this weekend I'll get back on track. Actually I'll be on a railway track tomorrow night going from Midway airport in Chicago to downtown Rush Street in and going to Gino's Pizza. I'm pretty sure calories measure less after you've flown but not sure. I don't even want to check the calorie intake of different liquors like Leanne even though I won't have time for much. Apple will be paying for them so I hate to count calories then. I'll try to be good but no promises. So I'll be reporting live from Chicago starting tomorrow night! Watch out for my kids in the neighborhood.

WOMAN'S CHALLENGE

I participated in this last year; and will do it again this year... you set your own goal and commit to making your life healthier! Last year, I committed to 10,000 steps a day... you decide!
Check out the website... if you want to be reminded of it; be sure to add your email address to their list-serve.
(COMPLIMENTARY PEDOMETER!!!) Some times it's all about the freebies! :)

Saturday's Check-In

Friendly reminder that we'll meet Saturday morning, February 23, 9 a.m. for our workout and use it as a time of check-in... I'm working on tracking down the registration forms for the Wisner Run/Walk... hopefully we'll have them by then, to pass out and commit ourselves!
Snaps to Barb W. for joining the group for the 1st time last night... hope we didn't scare her off!

I must chuckle at how much we've learned about each other, in the midst of this... great conversations!

Lenten Sacrifice

Lent officially begins today! It's Ash Wednesday, February 6, 2008 (logging the date for future reference!)
Amber is giving up pop... sounds as though this could be a long 47 days in the Labenz household.
Courtney is kicking the refined sugar habit. Let's see how the Pastor's Wife bakes for church, w/o eating it all! :) Cupcakes are already in the works for Confirmation on Saturday; and there's a stash of cookies to go along with them. My only secret: Freezing it in the deep-freezer until needed! :)

Anyone else figured out what they want to try to do without? Remember, that technically Sundays are not a part of the 40 days of Lent... so if you need that one day of the week, to be weak; it's Sunday!

We'll post what you're sacrificing... exercise, is not an option; and we'll keep you on track and motivated...

Catch Us Exercising

Place comments here as to where you might be walking or exercising and you'd like others to join you. It can be at church or where ever. There will be some exercise tapes, at the church to use. I'm setting some personal goals to go to the church on Mondays, Tuesday and Thursday at 7, Saturdays at 9 and Sundays at 3. Not this Tuesday though with the church dinner. Also times can be flexible if anyone needs them to be. No promises I'll be there those times but so far I've only missed one in the last 2 weeks - yeah. Nothing too strenuous and only for 30 minutes or so. - jk
