Ummm... delicate topic. FYI on the Spinach Smoothie. Starting with my 4th pregnancy and really solidified (terrible pun) with my 5th, I had major constipation issues that never went away. I'll stop right there, no gory details. But I tell you what! That spinach smoothie has fixed things! I can't think of anything else I have been doing differently, that I could attribute my new regularity to. So, all hail the Spinach Smoothie!
P.S. Stopping eating by 6 or 7 is proving to be my Mt. Everest. Last night I totally binged simply because my teenage daughter and I had a "moment" together watching a chick-flick. So I blew my calories yesterday. Then, today, I was the Baking Queen for some reason. I was good and didn't blow all my calories, but all the baking delayed dinner, and I didn't stop eating until nearly 9pm. Aaargh!! I'm not sure how I'm going to handle the 30-point thing, because if it's every-day-has-to-be-perfect, then I totally blew it already. Maybe 2 points for each day I stop eating by 7pm? Any thoughts?
Is this an open invitation for some great potty humor? I guess next time the Assman cometh, I'll be blending up some Spinach Smoothies!

Hey if I can get 15 points for getting half way to my 30 point goal than you can certainly get 2 points a day for every day that you make your 30 point goal. After all isn't the goal here to improve, not give up entirely because we missed one day?
ReplyDeletemaybe give yourself the points if you do it 80% of the time... this is my goal. If I do all or nothing I am toast!
ReplyDeleteI think you could give yourself a little cushion. That's a pretty tricky goal. Maybe do it during the weekdays, but take the weekend off...?
