Well, I didn't do so well on the food front, but did do my workouts everyday. I don't mind so much on the food, because staying motivated to workout has always been my biggest challenge. As a result I actually gained back the weight I lost. Some of you may think..."How can you stay motivated if your weight is constantly up and down?"
Well, it's really the healthy challenge. For me the healthiest part of this is the excercise. I've always been a couch potato! I need to stay moving...everyday!!
Amber's question this week is all about the music. I agree!!! I listen to the classics from my youth. It makes me feel younger ;) and stronger..hahaha! So I listen to:
Huey Lewis,
John Mellencamp,
Bruce Springsteen,
The BoDeans,
.38 Special (oh, yeah...southern rock, baby)
Squeeze
Bryan Adams
I look forward to reading what everyone listens to, so I can get a little more with it!!
17 Shout Out:
I gained too.
I love the music from my youth! There is nothing like it!
Have a great week!
Staying motivated to work out is one of the hardest parts for me too. Your hard work will pay off in the end. This week Amber's post said getting healthy/eating right/exercising is like ebb and flows. She's so right. Sometimes it's easy to forget that (for me anyway!).
I love all of your music selections. Every single one of them used to be my favorites. I instantly get happy hearing tunes from those artists. Brings back good memories. I can understand why they motivate you!
Much love from NJ,

Don't worry about the weight gain as you stated , it all about getting heatlhy!! Great Job!!
Obviously I have a tough time staying motivated in the exercise department, but you are doing great!!!! Love your music choices, time to make a stop at iTunes!
Oh I totally forgot about Squeeze! I loved them! and everyone is so right, we all just need to stick with it every week & we'll see progress over time.
You are awesome!!!! Working out everyday is soooo great!!! I struggle with that too. It seems I put everyone before me, and at the end of the day I think...duh, you didn't exercise!!
Keep it up!:-)
Love Squeeze! Best lyrics!
Keep it up. Losing weight is like the stock market. (Well, what the stock market used to be like) If you look at it too closely it's terrifying. Stand back and look at the overall trend.
Maybe a bad analogy after all.
You'll do great regardless.
I agree that its not just about the numbers, for me a lot of it is in my head. If my head is right then I am on the right track to everything falling in place. Keep up the good attitude.
Hey, thnsk for checkin gout my blog :) What do you mean by old? hmmm your music is from my era. :) That and your dudes from your previous post...they are ALL fabulous. Some of the popular dudes now look a little young.
Have a great day!
Ebb and flow, baby. Next week, bring the flow!! :)
I think you're doing awesome!! Great music choices!
It's so hard to keep motivated on the exercise front! Good for you for doing it this week! I'm hoping this next week is my golden week! So far so good.
Great job on the daily workouts!! How sad is it that I only know a few of the people you listen too! :) Have a great week!
I love the BoDeens!
Good for you girly.. just keep it up.. do your best and that's all you can do!
Good list. And great attitude! I need to be okay with not losing, and happy about getting healthier.
Great job!

Just stopping in again to let you know I've left you an award on my blog!
We are opposites lol...this week I did better eating but not so much exercising.
Good music! and that is so great that it is more about getting healthy for you! That is what it really should be about anyway.
