your illinois correspondent reports

I wish I were heading off on an RV adventure today! But since I'm not, I'll just report the news from here. First, exercise has been happening -- in fact, I was at the gym last night, and there were some Northwestern students doing serious ab exercises next to me, which made me wonder: when you guys say you're doing "leg lifts," what are you doing, exactly? Second, WW has also been happening -- a little frustrating lately, just because it's been slow, but nonetheless I'm down 11 pounds and that's not nothing, so i will report it. The useful lesson I learned at our little encounter group today: when you think you really want to eat something, wait 15 minutes; most of the time that will be enough to forget about it, but if you still really want it, probably you should eat it! I think i've tried that in the past with some success, so i'm just tossing it out there are a potentially useful idea.....and I hope everyone is having a lovely Wednesday!
