1000 Hits!

According to my Site Meter, I have over 1000 hits to this BLOG now ... that should help my AD income somewhat. Thanks Owing Mills for hitting several times yesterday ... you are helping to line my pockets ...

So ... When the Anonymous Commentor struck again ... I decided NOT to leave SBDO. I chatted with the Accountables yesterday and one of them suggested that I try signing in using my Cincin21 account. Now I had tried that a few months ago and it didn't work at all .... but I took her advice and it let me in!! All I had to do was update my CC#. So I have my original profile and Siggy and everything now! Also .... I got my $6.95/mo payment back. So I called to cancel the Caledonia42 account and they were So NICE! They credited the $20 deposit to my old account and that bought me 10 weeks of service ... I did not expect them to do that!

So now I am getting to know the Accountables ... they all seem very nice. I plan to steer clear of Fool's Paradise. I may go in to answer posts directed to me .... but then scoot right out again. And my iVillage buddies are still here, too .... so it is all good! It is going to be a healing process being in SBDO again.

Down 12 lbs as of this morning .... a new low for this work-out/diet period. Yay me!! I am feeling much more alive lately and it could be due to a number of things. I made a lot of changes all at the same time ....

• Working Out
• Dieting
• Taking Slow FE and Vitamin C
• Taking Omega-3 Fish Oil and a Multi-Vitamin
• Using the Body Wraps .... the inch loss is still holding
• Using the KINOKI detox-pads
• And taking that Diet Pill

I don't know which thing is making the most difference or if it is a combination of all these things. I haven't commented much on the Diet Pill because I haven't really noticed a reduction in Hunger yet .... maybe a little .... if I do begin to notice something, I'll let you know!

OMG!!!!

Okay .... I woke up this morning and measured my thighs .... twice to be sure .... they were both down ONE FULL INCH .... OMG !!!

I forgot to measure my hips .... BRB ..... still down 1/2 inch .... even after breakfast and coffee ...

I am actually pretty amazed!

Maybe these wraps really do work!

I am going to keep using them on Fridays ... that is when I have time ... and I will keep you posted!

I am also going to keep working out and walking and swimming ... but WOW!!

Tried Wraps Again ...

Okay ... so today is Friday .... which is one of my favoritest days of all!! I worked out with Brandon ((Arms day)) and then swam for 30 solid mintes. Felt great!! The spa isn't working (grrrrrr) .... so I decided to try my wrap-things again. This time I applied the "mud" directly to my thighs and my stomach and hips ... and then I got a pair of tight bike shorts wet with hot water and put them on .... I figured it should work the same as the stretch bandages .... then I wrapped a towel around my hips and thighs and went and sat in the sauna for 30 minutes. Thirty minutes is about all I can take in there. I drank 1.5 big bottles of water while in there! Then I put on my fleece pants ... over the shorts ... and came home and sat bundled up in a warm blanket for another hour or so ...

When I finally took my shorts off ... my thighs and stomach were still really warm .... which is good .... all the "mud" was gone ... who knows where? And when I measured, my thighs hadn't changed, but my stomach/hips went down 1/4 inch. I will measure again tomorrow and report in ... especially after BJ's tonight!! yay!!!

Still doing the KINOKI foot pads ... still coming off all nasty colored ... but this morning's one did seem a little lighter .... we shall see ....

Product Update ...

Still down 2.5 inches with the body wrap .... did like I said I would today and stayed at 2.5 inches down .... maybe try thighs or upper arms next?? I'll keep you posted! LOL ...

Tried the KINOKI foot pad on my left foot last night ... and this morning it was ugly brown again ... just like the pad on the right foot was. It could be caused by sweat interacting with the herbal sachet ... the telling fact would be if they eventually do get lighter and lighter in color.

Had a good workout today ... Brandon is being very serious about upping the weights and reps and all that. Haven't measured .... probably should have done that today because this weekend is going to be Par-Tay time!! Super Bowl and my Birthday ... on the same day!! And Mardi Gras is Tuesday .... so might as well enjoy!!

Happy February ....
