Well I may as well get the bad news over with first.
I did terrible eating on Christmas day.
Seems I have a real problem with home made, cut out and iced Christmas cookies.
I love them!!
Especially the stars.
I can just break off a couple of rays and walk away…
sadly I always went back and just kept breaking off.
My sis in law makes the best caramels.
This year she brought them in the pan. So I could just sliver off a slice….
little, by little, by little, by little…. see a pattern?
There were other things I ate that were out of my norm.
All of this resulted in me feeling physically terrible.
My tummy was a churning, and spinning. So much that I thought I must be getting the flu.
I woke up on Christmas morning to the sounds of one of my children wretching his guts out. By 3:00 that day another son was sick. This is another whole story and it is not very pretty so I think I will just stop there.
But you get the point… My body does not like high amounts of fats and sugar so much that I felt physically sick.
This is probably a good thing.
Now for the good news. My sweet family got me a Wii and a Wii fit for Christmas. ( okay in all honesty I told them it was all I wanted and I would help pay ) My sweet hubby went in with them and I received this very extravagant gift.
Although so far I have to wait to get a turn. Seems they all like the Wii.
I think I am really going to like it.
The Wii tells it like it is.
The first time I stepped on it went ….OHHH! ( kind of like an OH MY! )
Sorta of irritating.
Then it told me I was obese.
Kinda hurtful!
Then it said my Wii age was 52.
Very disturbing!!
But after I did a few things on it I went back and did a few more tests to determine my Wii age and it said I was 34!!
Liking that!
So I can’t wait to do it again today!
Even though it’s insulting, it is also challenging, encouraging and so far makes exercise fun.
I think it is going to be a good thing for me.
Have a great day!

Suz, when Mom got the Wii fit, I was very angry at it. It definitely made my Mii pudgy and I was like 43 in Wii years. It was also on Christmas. Merry Christmas to me, right? :)
ReplyDeleteSorry for making those star cookies... kind of glad I was too sick to eat them. I'm glad you didn't get the flu too!
It's a journey. If it were easy - every American would be skinny! Temptation is all around us. It's just a balancing act.
