HI Gang,

I have been playing at the rink this whole weekend. After this post, I gotta focus on work!  End of Quarter is just 3 weeks away!  Yikes!

I am hoping to hit the 130's this week.

One of my favorite aerobic exercises is figure skating!  I can burn 862 calories in 2 hours if there arent a lot of people there. When it is wide open ice I just love to fly and here my own "home-made" wi

So now that weddings and honeymoons are done and Groomy and I are settling in, I am concentrating very hard on my diet again.  I have really upp'ed the raw vegetables and have pretty much done away with fruits with the exception of tomatoes.
