Very good for a quick workout at lunch! I don’t know if there is something up with my HRM because my heart rate seems really high lately! Who knows! I got my boyfriend to agree to come to Spin with me tonight too!! I am really excited because he has never tried it before and has no clue what he is in for. Should be interesting!
I came back to a nice lunch…same one as yesterday!
Tuna, hummus, cucumbers, lettuce, mustard, and laughing cow and whole wheat bread.
With a nice big bag of soy crisps on the side!
I am trying soooooooo hard not to chew any gum at work today. I seriously get such stomach issues from chewing 1 to 2 packs a day. So far so good but I am dying for a piece right now!!! AAHH! I don’t know what to do here!! I will go make myself a cup of tea or something!
I will leave you with some more contests to enter!!

Good Luck!

I just quit gum about 3-4 days ago. I just stopped. It’s really hard though
I want a piece right now. Maybe drink some hot water with lemon or an orange slice? That helps me sometimes. I totally agree about how icky your stomach feels when you chew a lot of gum. It started to feel bad after just 1 piece, which is why I decided to finally just STOP. But it’s still so hard!!!! (that’s what she said). Happy wednesday!

I haven’t done that elliptical workout in awhile, I need to do it soon! Maybe Friday before our dinner. I’m not like you, I’ll look ug, but who really cares
I’m excited for you and your friend to take spin – he has NO idea what he is in for!

I was shocked when my mom told me that chewign gum causes *gasp* gas. Its the constant opening and closing of your mouth and sucking in air.
I used to chew a lot of gum and I had stomaach aches. When I cut back, i noticed a difference.

Maggie: I wish I could just quit!! I have tried but I seriously go nuts without it!! My tummy starts bothering me after just 1 piece too!
Mo Diva: Yes it’s the air and the Sorbitol that really does it. I am up to 2.5 pieces aah! I was dying haha. Usually I am over a pack by this time of day though so I am not doing that bad!!

So glad you had a better day today! Your workout looks awesome!

omg…I had FOUR packs of gum yesterday during the day at work! That is a serious problem. Mine is related to anxiety, though (I think). I will seriously chew a piece and 10 seconds later put another one in. I’m a chain chewer! Good luck with the no gum. Let me know if you come up with any good tips.

Holly: I do the exact same thing. Once I start with one piece, I add in a second piece 10 minutes later!! I seriously can chew a pack in an hour. It is bad! I failed yesterday haha. Once I started, it turned into 5 pieces in 30 minutes. Oh well!
