Thanks Walmart!

Well I am on the road again :-)  This time I am in Atlanta! Its a festive trip since one of my best soror-friends is getting married on Saturday!!!!! I mentioned this before since I am actually not in knots about being a bridesmaid for once in my life since I was able to buy a dress right off the rack! That may not seem like a big deal BUT every other wedding I always had to buy the biggest size and have it altered (up) to eventually fit! Not this time! The dress actually had some room!

Its been a mess food wise though! But thank God for My Fitness Pal it allowed me to log in and keep track even if it is after the damage! :-)

Well my workout updates:

~I walked the Atlanta airport I have noooo idea how long it was distance wise but it took like 35 minutes & I was sweating. They have a train and most people took that but a few of us walked it! I even had my 2 carry on bags! Whew!

~I did 2 -10 minute On Demand workouts one was cardio and the other was Pilates

~I did 60 minutes of a made up workout this morning!
 I did a 20 minute power walk in my friend's neighborhood but I wasn't feeling the nature walk lol so I figured out how to get into the gym at the complex and did another 20 minutes on Libby the elliptical and did another 20 minutes of weights! Whew!

But I have to thank Walmart! Somehow I left all my workout clothing! My primary goal was to not forget the bridesmaid's dress lol so somehow I missed the workout clothing! Last night we made a Walmart run and I found a cute workout outfit! The pants were $7 and the shirt was $5


No Excuses! Ok I hate these kinds of self shots but everyone was sleeping lol


Well I had a good workout and I think I shall return to Walmart for more of the pants! Very comfy Daskin pants!

Ok so while I only went to Walmart for eye makeup remover and $2 wine I ended up with a cart-full of Walmart goodness! Always! Its such a love/hate relationship! LOL

I shall do a foodp*rn post upon my return :-) As those of you who have been on this journey with me since last year, may recall I hit my goal in May and went on a series of roadtrips the first of which was to Atlanta, then it was New York, Trinidad & Tobago, St. Louis, & then New Orleans!  Needless to say my goal weight went bye bye and I have been trying to get back for a year now! I am up 3 pounds according to the scale in the apartment gym. :-(   Butttt after the Italian food I had last yesterday I sure nuff ate 3 pounds of food so I can't be so mad lol

I am hoping to get one more workout tomorrow before we go to get our hair done and since we are staying at the hotel tonight I am going to try and workout again before the rehearsal or right afterwards but definitely tomorrow morning! Which will mean being mindful of what I eat and drink tonight at the "hen party" because I gotta get it in!

Laterssss!!
