Just call me Mike Tyson

I just finished day 7 of my 30-day challenge on the EA Active for Wii. That's more than 600 cals gone and about 90 exercises painstakingly completed, including 25 laps around the virtual track. Supa-girl! Today's workout was full of one of my favorites, boxing. I got so into it I thought I was going pull a Mike Tyson and bite my hubby's ear off! Ha Ha! Watch out, honey!

I've also been doing excellent on my food plan. But there's really not much to feel deprived about...cereal with skim milk, fresh berries, turkey wraps loaded with veggies and cilantro, taco salad....mmm hmm! That's what I like so much about Weight Watchers. It doesn't really limit the types of foods you eat, but rather, the quanity of it. I've tried other plans that cut out the carbs, or said no to fruit, etc. and whatever I couldn't have, that's what I craved (and cried over. HA!)

With all my healthy efforts, I hope that the white-and-silver monster that lurks in my bathroom (is that called a scale?) will show me some unconditional love tomorrow when I (gulp) step on it one timid foot at a time for my weekly weigh-in. I just hope like a video tape, the scale monster will please be kind and rewind!

And in the interest of keeping things fun and light, (literally) I've decided to try a little something new this week, along with my food and fitness plan. It's slightly controversial...it sounds sweet, but yet it's bitter...and can be found at any local grocery store. Any guesses? :) Stay tuned!
