Still rolling...

It's Saturday morning, I meant to do this yesterday, it's early on Saturday morning for me. 6:19am. It got up yesterday morning early too to workout. I had some fun with my children yesterday. After stopping in to see Lisa at Physicians Weight Loss Center yesterday morning, we were suppose to go to the Giggle Factory in Hudson with a play date, but they were closed due to a sickness - so we came back to my house and played instead. Oh well, we will go to the Giggle Factory again or even Inside Out in New Richmond. Then in the afternoon, we went to New Richmond and trick-or-treated! That was fun and WIXK was having their Treat Street so the kids got to play in a jumpy house and get their picture taken. That was a lot of fun. I'm glad we got to do that.

Then last night, I worked on thelocalbizonline.com because we have a new Local Biz out and about now! Yeah! It is awesome. Full of great advertising. People - it is time to spend some money! We are on the brink of the holiday season, I believe that officially starts on November 1st (which happens to be my son's 4th birthday!) I think you can even get Christmas music already! That being said - get out and get your copy and get shopping or eating or drinking (in moderation of course) at your favorite places or even go out and make new favorites!

It has been a good week for me, I've gotten lots done, worked out well and stuck to my diet! We had an awesome radio show and I wasn't stressed out! Yeah for me!

So let's talk diet first, I can't even begin to explain how good I feel. I put a pair of workout pants on yesterday morning and they were BIG. It was a little funny. I was all excited to weigh in on Friday morning. And when I did, I didn't loose any weight, BUT, after a little scolding not to get all obsessed with weight, Lisa pointed out that my body fat percentage is down and that is what we are looking for. Muscle weighs more, but muscle doesn't make you feel fat, so this is why I feel so good. I'm ridding my body of all that yucky body fat!!! I'm feeding "the machine" as Lisa puts it and my body is responding my eating away at that yucky fat. So please join me, stop eating all the processed foods that we are bombarded with daily. I know it looks and smells yummy, but we can do it! You won't believe how good you feel.

As I mentioned before, Colton turns 4 on Monday. So we had a birthday party for him with family on Wednesday night. It was a lovely party and Colton got lots of great gifts. But I found some power that night. I ordered a beautiful 1/2 sheet cake with ooy gooy frosting, which I love, and I cut the cake, scooped ice cream and served it to my family AND I never faltered!!! I'm so proud of myself. It would have been so easy to lick my fingers. But I didn't. Not only is it power, it is a victory over myself. I can have control and SO CAN YOU! If you make it through the first 2 weeks, you got this in the bag! You can stop drinking for a few months. THIS IS NOT FOREVER, IT IS JUST FOR NOW! And I will help you if you want to chat. Pick up a Local Biz today and check out the ad on the back for Physician Weight Loss Clinic!

We also had an awesome show on the radio this week. My partner Don and I had three wonderful guests. We had Judy Rusch of Sweet Greetings in New Richmond on telling us about her amazing 15 year anniversary and her open house this upcoming Thursday afternoon from 3-6pm. Don and I are going to stop in after the show. Details on the What's going on page on the Biz online, check it out. Then we had Lisa from the Physicians Weight Loss Center. If you want to learn more, call her up (715-386-7952) and even stop in and see her! She will chat with you for free about the program and help you get started. Then we had my favorite guest, Tera Busker! She has an amazing article in the Local Biz for November. Check it out. Wanna make it through the holidays and not gain all the weight? She has some helpful hints and I bet if you had some questions about working out and eating right, she would help you too. Check out her newly redesigned website at www.fitnesstogo.net.

I better stop typing and get some other work done before I go run. I'm putting in a 5 or 6 miler this morning. And I start my running challenge on Monday. 120 miles in 8 weeks! Wish me luck!
