It was a beautiful catered event with lots of good foods and even greater people. Unfortunately for us only half the crew came. Georgia was still sick and Jodie not fairing much better.
So Sophia the beautiful and I had our workout together while the others did their best to rest and take plenty of fluids. I worked out on some heavy arm curls as well as shrugs and crunches, Sophia worked crunches and arm curls as well as some funky exercise using the rubber band. Can't really describe it but I wasn't about to deflate her enthusiasm and tell her she wasn't really benefiting from it :)
We had only 20 minutes so we pretty much blasted through the workout and got changed.

LOL..ok. I have a funny look on my face. Probably cuz I felt like a teenager taking a shot for facebook.
I felt a bit awkward asking my wife to take a picture of me so I didn't. If you knew my wife you'd understand. The reason I took it wasn't to show off my new shirt....it was to show off my belt. I lost a complete belt notch in 3 weeks! I'm proud of myself. I am down 9 pounds in just over 3 weeks. The greatest thing about the loss in weight is that it was done in a healthy and safe way. Eating properly and exercising have definitely been the keys.
Throughout the party it was difficult not to pass up all the good foods. I think for the most part I was good only delving into the sushi a bit more than I probably should have. But all the other yummy foods I did taste, just didn't over indulge. I think that's the key to still enjoying yourself without feeling guilty and calorie counting.
Tis the season to enjoy good foods, great friends and being with the ones you love. And if that includes sharing the odd sinful food then I say open wide.
