Move it Monday.

...except it's Tuesday...

 

(where have I been?  recovering from my super fun weekend with my sister and her family...)

 

Today is a double day.  It's the first week of the month and I need to announce the winner of November's contest and announce our last contest of the year!!


November's winner is:

Laura Cottril! 

Laura wins a set of Thinnerware.  Wohoo!

 

We started out the year just trying to get in our 20 minutes of true exercise, eating less, and eat more healthy foods...I think that's a good place to end the year...


DECEMBER CONTEST:

Our contest this month is to get in 20 minutes of real exercise at least 5 days a week, eat less (smaller portions), and eat more healthy foods.

Come to the Move it Monday post for the week, each day of that week, and post what you did that day to meet the contest guidelines for the day in the comments.

 

DECEMBER PRIZE:

Since this is the month of giving we're doing something we've never done for Move it Monday....

The winner will be working this month for the charity of their choice.  At the end of December the winner will have $100 donated to the charity of their choice.  Make sure to put in the comments of this post the charity that you're going to win for this month. (each day that you comment is worth 1 point)

 

**BONUS:**  Because I love the laughter post from a few weeks ago, I'm going to give you a bonus chance to win!!  Laughter is great medicine, especially, at this time of year and with the year many people have had.  So...if you know a great joke (even if it's a laffy taffy joke---we love the laffy taffy jokes) put it in the comments.  For each joke or funny story you put in the comments we'll give you a 1/4 point toward your winning score.  So find your 8 year son, 10 year old nephew, or 12 year neighborhood boy scout...they all know all the crazy, silly, ridiculous jokes...and they'll be glad to help.

meaningful. LIFE.

Oh, Karen! You are going to be hard to beat this month!

Had scrambled eggs and home potatoes cooked with onions and sundried tomatoes in chicken broth and a touch of butter for flavor. Mixed in some leftover beans and corn. It was SO good! Somehow I am getting to be an inventive cook. It's kind of fun. :)

Joke:
Q: Why did the cop run across the baseball field?
A: Someone stole second base!

Oh, yes, small plate!
I use the salad or dessert plate, whatever that is and give my husband a dinner plate.

totally doing good about eating less.

Had a quality 30 minutes with the stair master. My first time. 2 miles.

And walked 1 mile.

Yesterday, I did OK with eating less, but drinking several cups of apple juice/cider totally put me over on the calorie count. Darn drinks, they are just EMPTY calories.

About 30 min of aerobics yesterday. :)
