pear spice cake with warm praline topping...

just sayin

"pear-ly" speaking...

well, i know i have been gone gone g-o-n-e.... and i am trying to come back. I am a pear, still, always, forever and permanently...ever since I have started this blog I have been a pear...and I have tried various things, exercises, eating habits, and listen here people...i have not changed one bit! SERIOUSLY...not one bit. I am a pear. I weigh the exact same amount as I did when I started this blog! What is up??? How does (or should) age play into things???hmmm, these are my thoughts this pear day.

one of many reasons...

I love food:) I love good food...that is one of the many reasons why I am struggling!! LOL
Anyway, I began yesterday calorie counting. I have never done this before, but a friend of mine did this and lost 20 pounds. Who knows...I just know that I cannot cannot cannot stick to a food limiting diet. I love food, did I already say that??? Anyway, calories....I am going to stick to a low calorie high protein eating system (not diet) and see what happens...:) go me! And Wendy, she is doing it too!!!!

duh...it's about the food.

So I tried really eating less carbs and
really watching every little thing and
really not eating as much and
really not snacking and really not popping something into my mouth because it was left on my child's plate and
guess what????????
It really helps with the bulge that is manifesting around my middle.:)
Well that and the 6 out of 7 days working out:)
i love summer.

pear p-i-e

I
cannot
can not
CAN NOT
get this pear under control. I am always falling short. I am the bruised pear, the unripe pear, the one that is not right.

The P90 Pear

Yep, I bought into the P90X System and I actually like it.
I am still a pear.
I have been getting up at 5:30 every morning 6 days a week for 5 weeks now to get through the P90X system. It is 12 week program. I am noticing changes and it feels good. I can always tone up my arms so easily. This has been the biggest difference in my body shape.
So a pair of "guns" for this pear!

Can a pear turn into an apple?

I think it can. I'm watching it happen. Will I stop watching and start doing??? Well, I'm trying a bit. Aerobics class is Tuesday and Thursday. So far, I've only made it to one a week. Next week, I WILL make it to both. Today I walked in my woods - it's a bit aerobic, but only a bit. I WILL stretch today and do my back exercises for the chiropractor. I WILL NOT over eat. And I WILL thank God for another day to try it all again!

Tam - LOVE the story about the bikini. Mol - How's the yoga? When you get moved up here, will you teach me?
