Busy Weekend

by Josie on November 15, 2009 · 7 comments

Whew, what a busy weekend! My eating has been great this weekend, although I still didn’t start C25K yet. (Lacking motivation here, big time.)

Friday night we went to the “Hoedown” that my daughter’s school has every year. It’s basically a fall festival with games, food, auction, etc. and my daughter was performing there with her clogger group (She’s the brunette in the center looking toward the camera):

I chose not to eat there because there really were no healthy options. Well, that and the fact that the food lines were outrageously long! haha

Saturday we had another performance to go to at a retirement community. It was probably the best one so far! The audience (of mostly elderly folk) got so into it! They were clapping and stomping and even yelled for an encore after they were done! I loved that crowd…it’s so awesome to look around and see how their faces just glow up once the dancers start. :-) Here’s a video if anyone wants to see: (The music cuts off halfway through inadvertently, but they kept dancing like nothing had happened-my daughter is in the front row closest to the camera)

Every year the cloggers make a float because they’re in 5-6 parades a year (starting in February). So today was “paint day” where we started tearing off the cloth that was still on it from last year’s western theme and gave it a fresh new coat of white paint. I can’t reveal what the theme will be this year, so I probably won’t post any more pictures of it until parade time. (Don’t want to tip off any competing teams ;-) )

I am very much looking forward to tomorrow’s weigh-in. My “sneak peek” today had me at around 19 pounds lost total. Dangerously close to the 20 lb mark! I guess we’ll know for sure tomorrow. Sorry I don’t have much weight related to talk about tonight…my weekend pretty much revolved around clogging…hehe. I guess that’s part of being a mom! I’m happy though because even though we were “busy” I didn’t let that be an excuse to make bad food choices. I’m off to go read some blogs and then to bed at a decent hour. I might get up and go to the gym in the morning. (I really, really want to) G’night all!

Josie, it sounds like a great weekend. I didn’t get a chance to watch the whole video, but what I saw was impressive. I am sure the folks at the retirement home loved that.

Here’s to a great weigh-in tomorrow! GO 20 POUNDS!!

Looks like a great activity (and exercise!) for your daughter — lots of fun! I hope you hit that benchmark number tomorrow!

Hey, that clogging stuff kind of looks like fun! And it sounds like we are both breathlessly awaiting the big 20-lbs-lost mark . . . I don’t know if it will happen for me this weigh-in (tomorrow). But if not, next week for sure!
