    Yay! Did you give them names?

    Grey Porch Kitty and Baby Porch Kitty. :smiley:

    My aunt has a cat that just kind of hangs around her house that she calls LGC, which stands for little gray cat. LOL

    When my kids were toddlers, we had a cat that hung around that we called kitty-meow-meow. :)

    So, @Oberon21 - I didn't sign up for DC, but I am running a marathon on Saturday. A trail marathon. Land Between the Lakes in Kentucky.

    It's supposed to rain there every day between now and Saturday.

    Did I mention it's a trail race? And, I don't have trail shoes?

    I may regret this.

    My thought would be to wear shoes that are good but close to their end of life cycle. That way you don't have to worry about ruining a good pair of shoes and can concentrate on the best footing for your steps.
    You don't have to listen to me though, I'm just starting to run 5Ks and know little about long distance running.
    Good luck on your muddy adventure!

    I AM IN THE NY MARATHON! Woot!

    of course, that is 2 weeks before the 50 mile race. but what the heck.

    You are insane. Good insane, but insane. <3

    I agree about the good insane! I'm thinking I may throw myself into a 10K for May because why the heck not, aside from that race my main focus is prepping for the bikini fitness competition. (I may squeeze in a few smaller races prior to if I don't burn myself out) :)


    I would think you will do great at the bikini fitness competition from what I have seen of your pictures you are most of the way there already.

    I have eaten a truly ridiculous amount of thin mints in recent days.
    Also, my girlfriend has a present for me. Is it going to be a real skull this time I wonder? XD

    Update: it is not a skull. Also, I have eaten many more thin mints.

    I've eaten like poop the past few days too!

    I definitely ate my share of peanut butter the past few days.
    OMG the first time I read that I missed the like! Say WHAT! read it again whew.
    At this point I would say eat whatever you want.

    My confession today is that since my tastebuds are on the fritz due to sinus junk, I am eating everything.....and I can't even taste it......why????

    Seriously, if you cant' tates it...why? Although sometime just the act of eating is soothing when you feel like crap.

    Must be the comfort eating. Honestly, I don't know why. It could be comfort eating due to stress also. I have an interview with the company I work for today. It is for a manager position at the clinic where I currently work. Could be a bit of nerves, but with 20 years with them, I hope they know I am the best option.

    I am assuming the interview is done by now. I hope all went well and the stress is off.

    Yes, interview is done now and I can relax a bit. I was told I did well and given a few pointers for the next round of interviews, assuming I get to that. Mostly they are looking for the right fit, I am hoping that the approval of my coworkers at this clinic says something.

    Now my only stressor is that my Jeep was stolen and probably not going to find it.

    Fingers crossed that all will go well and you get the position.
    :'( Sorry about your jeep that really stinks ((hugs))

    Yesterday I could not t=stop thinking about eating chocolate. I had already had my chocolate allotment for the day so I ate a big bowl of strawberries and pretended that there was chocolate on them. Then went to bed.wvz33h2kpkjd.jpg

    This was me at Walmart 2 days ago. Seriously, those stores have mind control powers!

    Wal-Mart definitely has the power to do that.

    I did good at Wal-Mart today & didn't buy too much junk food which is a first for me! I keep stalking the Easter aisle in hopes that the Coldstone Creamery eggs will make an appearance, but still no luck.

    Ah but these are porch kitties. Strays I feed. So they are all variations on porch kitty. If I give them other names...they must come inside.

    I can't do any type of jumping jacks or running without my belly smacking the top of my thighs. It's really embarrassing. Going to talk to a surgeon about a panniculectomy. Three kids and yo-yoing between 140 and 252 a few times wrecked my belly.

    I wear tight leggings and shirts when I do stuff like this because of the fat smacking fat issue. I also only do heavy cardio at home where no one can see me. I sympathize.
    You're doing it somewhere, so way to go! (wanna know a secret? I have way more respect for overweight runners than you'd think. They are putting it out there for people to see that they are trying to do better.)

    +1 Most fitness people fully support other exercisers because they are excited to have more people around them working out! Size means nothing when you're rocking it in an exercise class or on a run

    Or even just getting out there and trying. All the respect in the world.

    I am going to try this set of for strengthening exercises3 times a week and was wondering if any of you have any thoughts or advice on them.
    The inverted reach and reach across I am doing 1 full set of 15
    The I am doing 3 sets of 5on the arm lift leg swing because I feel I loose form after 5
    on the last 2 I am doing 3 sets of 10 because I can't do any more at one time.
    On the pelvic lift heel tap I felt my back was arching too much so I opted to place my hands under my hip roll my shoulders forward and relax my neck while I am doing it. It seems to take the pressure off my back.

    I started yesterday. It did not feel bad so hubby and I went on a 7.5 mile hike. I can't explain how much my abs and buttocks are burning. We will see. Maybe two times a week.
    On our hike I found these. First of the season. I think it's going to be good this year!
