Well, it sure feels like a workout! Or do I have to call it power shopping before it counts? LOL
My daughter had birthday money burning a hole in her pocket (of course) so I graciously offered to take her on a spree. Wound up with some awesome, awesome deals at Old Navy for myself and my boys too. (If you have an Old Navy nearby, they have 1/2 off clearance right now.)
I deviated from the 14 day plan today, as we treated ourselves to a soup and salad bar place, but I did choose wisely, loaded up on veggies, and ordered iced tea... so not feeling too guilty.
What I do feel is GREAT! This is the first time in a long time that I spent that much time shopping and I'm not exhausted! I started to wane right before dinner, but after the salads and tea, we ventured out for another two hours.
Participating in the Tea Diet Challenge has already made such an awesome difference in my life. I haven't weighed myself yet, but I would bet (and sure I'd win) that I have lost weight... and the main reason is my energy continues to increase. It's no mystery really, the more tea I drink, the better I feel, the better I feel, the more I walk and move around, and the better I feel from the tea and the walking, the easier it is to make healthier choices in my diet.
:)
Hope everyone is having a great-tea day too!
Hugs,
Barb

Ashley, sorry to hear you had a rough week ((Hugs)) Some times Ben & Jerry is just the way to go :) Like Dr. Tea says, just jump back on the tea wagon and get back on track. We all have our moments and always will. I think the key is to have more "healthy" days than not and then the slip ups or treats will not do us in. Hope you are feeling better soon!
Bob, you are awesome! Thanks for your continued support! Yup, we walked, and shopped, and walked, and walked, then drove and parked, and walked, and shopped... LOL Well, you get the picture.
Carol... LOL! Now that's a theory. :)
Hugs all,
Barb

I am so glad you shared this with us. We ALL go off of diets all of the time. Now instead of feeling miserable accept that fact, go brew yourself another cup of tea, remember to say I CAN LOSE WEIGHT and get right back on the program.
if ben and jerry's is your thing, look for some of my ice cream teas I have on line. Mint chocolate chip ice cream, orange sherbet and others.
You're doing great!
