I had a minor relapse over the weekend, but continue to persevere. Had myself a Morningstar Grillers Prime faux-burger last night for dinner and have to say, not too bad. I like the texture more than I did the Boca Burgers, though my husband, amazingly enough, likes the Boca Burger. Now if only I can get my kids to try one or the other. I had a soy latte this morning from Starbucks and while it didn't taste bad, man did it rack up a lot of points. I'll have to try making my own with light soy milk next time. Just didn't want to go through all the trouble of making one and find out it really sucked. We will see. I also tried their "Perfect Oatmeal." Have to say if that's perfection, it leaves a lot to be desired. It's basically instant oatmeal that they give you some toppings for. While I like that they give you some nuts and dried fruit to put on top, it really doesn't equal the $2.50 (approx.) that you pay for it. I'll stick with my own instant oatmeal and do with it what I will.
Onto the fitness. I used the Turbo Jam yesterday and Monday night (20 minute workout yesterday, 40 minute cardio party on Sunday). I'm pleasantly sore. Sounds bad, but at least it feels like I did something. I also managed to give in to my inner shopper and bought some Jump Snap handles. What is it you ask? It's basically a ropeless jump rope. Why bother? Why not just buy a regular jump rope and lose the rope? Well, I am a sucker for "innovative" products and this one offered a way to jump rope (it says that it's an excellent cardio workout) without the hassle and danger of using a rope. And believe me, I could be dangerous inside the house with a rope. It also says it has a counter for amount of revolutions, jumping time and calories burned. I figure, why not. We'll see how up I feel when I actually get the product. I promise a no-holds-barred review.
I've been weighing myself every morning before the shower and the weight hasn't budged since Sunday. Not sure if that's a good thing or a bad thing or if I'm just stressing myself out unnecessarily. Guess we'll just have to wait and see.

Turbo Jam is a good workout program. I love how you're monitoring what you're eating as well as working out - the right combination for success. Try weighing yourself only once per week. Weight goes up and down day to day for women mostly due to hormonal water retention. Stay motivated. Julie at http://JustGetMeFit.com
