Day 29 - big<br />
Our Dance Beers crew was so big last night that we didn't fit in the first 3 bars we tried. PS: Dear bar #4, sorry for the giggling and general taking over of your entire floor space. Consider yourself lucky we didn't start on that jukebox.

Day 18 - happened this weekend<br />
Magic at Body Blitz photoshoot. It is such a joy to watch you all gain confidence and strength and develop not only as individuals but also as a team. Everyone worked together to ensure that each person looked their best. The honesty, helpfulness and genuine concern you had for each others' photos warms my heart. I love to hear you all compliment each other knowing how hard the work is and that every ounce of result has been earned. I am endlessly proud of you.

Here's what I think:<br />
<br />
<br />
Exercise:<br />
It's important to keep at your workouts during the holidays for a couple reasons. First, obviously, is to help keep your weight in check. Exercise helps to keep you centered and focused on your priorities and goals. Knowing that you have taken time for yourself and your body helps feelings of guilt around food (although this isn't a free pass to eat everything!) and also helps keep you calm if there is that one certain family member that always drives you crazy. <br />
<br />
You'll be surprised how much even a little bit of exercise helps. If you have an event or series of events, plan your day to include 15-20 minutes to work out. Even if you don't have your workout clothes/shoes/etc., you can do a series of jumping jacks, running in place, pushups, situps, burpees wherever you are. Before you go, make yourself a playlist of workout music (make a new one so that you are excited about it) for the amount of time you want to commit each day and run yourself through some cardio and toning exercises each day. You might also want to find the other fitness person/people in the family and do a run together or simply walk around the block one afternoon with your brother. PS: Snowball fights count as cardio!<br />
<br />
I have recently found that I love keeping a <a href="http://i92.photobucket.com/albums/l20/fishgirl65/Album%202/2012-11-12_16-40-44_804.jpg" target="_blank">workout calendar</a>. Some of my students are finding success in this as well. I write down what I do each day <u>after</u> I do it. Note that this isn't a calendar of goals, but of accomplishments. If I set out for a 9 mile run but only make it 7 miles, I write down 7. When I look at the calendar, I'll see that I did 7 awesome miles rather than remembering that I had planned to do 9. The other great thing about this is that it holds you accountable to yourself. You know when you look at it if you have been slacking.<br />
<br />
Food:<br />
Oh, the food! I am not going to tell you it's OK to go nuts just because you ran a couple miles. If you are concerned about gaining weight, you have to pay attention to what you are eating. Snacking throughout the day and having a big meal will add up very quickly. If you are the cook, don't eat a whole meal in bites before everything is ready. Think about putting everything that you eat on a plate rather than directly into your mouth. This means that you will have to look at it and acknowledge that you are choosing to eat it rather than just grabbing it as you walk by. Remember that dinner plates are bigger than stomachs. Think about that as you dish out your servings. Eat the things that you like. Just because you are watching your weight doesn't mean that you can only eat veggies. If you love those butter drenched sweet potatoes, eat some of them! You don't have to deny yourself the things that you want, you just have to be smart about it. Don't fill up your plate with things you don't like and then end up eating them out of guilt. I feel dessert is a time where it is OK to legitimately be full and pass. However if you want a piece of pie, have it! You don't have to take the biggest piece. Lastly, be realistic. If you want to have a day where you eat anything you want, do it. One day will not ruin everything and send you into a sinking spiral. Simply acknowledge what you are doing and get back on your diet and fitness plan the next day.<br />
<br />
Drinks:<br />
I'll go ahead right now and say that this is the one that gets me. I love winter drinks: pumpkin spice lattes, hot chocolate, mochas... I also like non-holiday drinks like wine and beer. I probably won't turn down a glass of champagne. On Thanksgiving, I always find myself thankful for Spanish Coffees. I can easily drink my holiday calories and I know I'm not alone in this. But if you want to drink, you need to eat. There are far too many potential backfires if you employ the reasoning of drinking calories over food calories. Be mindful of when you start drinking. If you start your day with mimosas, know that there are a lot of hours to go and you don't want to be drunk before the party even starts (in most cases :)). Speaking of getting drunk, know whether or not that is going to be acceptable in your crowd if you choose to do it. Know how you are getting home (please don't drink and drive) and whether or not you are risking having to write Aunt Edna an apology if you do get drunk and tell her that her eyebrows are crooked. There are also a lot of sugary drinks around, boozy and non-boozy alike. You can end up overdoing it on sugar very quickly (especially if a lot of sugar isn't in your regular daily diet). A good rule of thumb for any holiday festivity is to drink a glass of water every hour and/or alternate water with your other beverages (1 drink/1 water or 1 drink/2 water). <br />
<br />
Mental State:<br />
This is actually the most important. The holidays can be stressful and hard on emotions, waistlines and fitness goals. Know which things will be your biggest challenges. This can be as simple as food or not wanting to run outside when the weather is bad. It can be the stress of knowing <insert here="here" pesky="pesky" relative="relative"> the pesky aunt will inevitably ask about why you are still single/don't have kids/have gained weight. It might be the financial strain of the holiday. Acknowledge what bothers you and make a plan around it. If you are afraid of overeating, pick a couple things that you know you will like and enjoy them. When Aunt Edna asks you about why you are single, have a confident response ready and then maybe go grab 15 minutes for a walk around the block and let it go. If holiday spending stresses you out, make a budget. You also don't have to go to everything that you are invited to. If you have friends that like to go to expensive dinners and you can't do it, you can say no. Going into the season with a plan that you can commit to can help avoid compensating for it in other areas (drinking/eating too much, not working out, making choices you wouldn't normally make). The only person who can control what you do is you. Don't forget about the progress you've made, be confident that you will continue to focus and work toward your goals, and be proud of yourself.</insert><br />
<br />
Lastly, if this all goes to shit and you eat too much and don't workout, resolution time is right around the corner. I can help with that too :)<br />

I saw their pretty faces at beet harvest while they were working at the piler and as the harvest went on, Rob made fast friends with adorable <a href="http://movingmiles.wordpress.com/2012/10/27/glory-country/" target="_blank">Amanda Lee</a> and so I was happy to volunteer a night of laundry and showers and a giant pile of Thai food when they passed through PTown. They are just delightfully fun ladies and we had an awesome night of cards, a little dancing and a lot of laughing. It started innocently enough...

I just happen to know their favorite song, which I slipped into my play list hoping when it came on, something like this would happen.

Day 31 - whatever you please (that's pretty lame for a photo challenge, imho)<br />

Day 1 - something beginning with 'C'<br />
CUT! Because Crystal Gayle hair is not Cool.
I was mortified when I saw my hair was below my waist in the Thriller video and grabbed a handful and chopped it off as soon as I got home.

It was really cool to be a part of this. I got to team build with people I don't normally work closely with as well as watch the team building that took place amongst their group as we snuck around to practice.<br />

We had piles of snacks and champagne and cozied into my little dressing room and basically spent the rest of the night <strike>giggling</strike> laughing hysterically. It was delightful. I promise we didn't talk about boys or sex at all.

I'm also inspired and want to write and pour out my feelings. I need a revised creative outlet. Ye 'ol blog has been a repository for little more than my photo challenge lately so I think it needs an overhaul. I also wonder if anyone reads it anymore. If so, is my audience my intended audience or if I share my life right here am I putting myself or someone I love at risk? I don't know the answers. and I don't really want to know who shows up here to check on my life, just that you do it for entertainment purposes. I'm happy to perform my happiness and sadness and put myself out there and will do it for an audience who is either anonymous or caring, but I worry sometimes that there is a lurker who could do harm or just cause general tumult. Can't you bad guys just stay on Facebook? I want you to come because you think I'm interesting or funny or take good pictures or that my dance vids are badass (because, duh. they are). and I want to share.<br />
<br />
On an unrelated note, I have my hair down today and it's clean and I don't have any makeup on except lipstick and I feel pretty. I like when that happens.<br />
<br />
Also, here is a dog and a ball and a bunny, all roughly the same size.<br />

My dear friend Anna held a housewarming/birthday/Halloween party on Saturday and I took my inspiration from her Day of the Dead invitation and did my first shot at some fancy skeleton makeup. It was super fun to do.

John used different make-up than me and his turned out well too, except that 2 days later, the color still shows on his face :)
