    Chris I did not even weigh in today. My eating has been so off. I am like you, if I open it I have to finish it. Argh. But my exercise has been way up this week. So happy with that.

    143.4 this morning at 7:00. ugh! One of the things I did today was go through all my magazines and recipes and workouts torn out of mags. I recycled a ton. Some of it went back to 2012!! So funny! Now, I have a lot of space to start filling up with workout mags and recipes I've torn out of other mags!! One thing I found was my weight three years ago was 15 pound lighter that what I weigh today. :/ You know what that means.

    163 this morning. Down from 176 same time last month. The stress losing is over now, have to be careful. Theres a whole bag of bagels in the kitchen. Working hard to stop at one.

    Also up about 15 pounds from a year or two ago, Chris. Let's work it off!

    PAULA!!!!!! I'm so glad to see you!!

    Yes, Paula, let's work it off! Shelley is working hard...we need to be working hard too!! Today, I jogged in place between our arm exercises. I have a bunch (18,384) of steps so far!! Then did our challenge and our legs exercises. Need to do that tomorrow too.

    Still working on the clutter. Got my side of the garage done yesterday...found out that Good Will will not take baby furniture if a baby can sleep in it. Too hard to sanitize. Tried to give them a bouncer that someone gave me and they wouldn't take it. Wondering about the stroller...hmmmm.

    Ronan was a crack up today! He's got all these new sounds that he squeaks out...so funny! :D

    Paula! Back flips happy time seeing you again!

    Yes must work harder. Throw out trigger foods.

    Chris that is crazy! Just list it all on some Mommy's site and give it to someone willing to clean it.

    141.8 yesterday and today. I did have a killer workout w/our trainer last night. DDD couldn't make it, so it was all me for an hour... :o . Tomorrow will be lower. I'll get my in-place jogging done along w/our challenges this morning while grandbaby sleeps.

    Chris did you see we have a dueling contest in our other challenge? Due by tomorrow morning. So tonight really.
    My weight today was 151.2 Not bad since I have been almost 153 all week. :'( Must keep working. Great workout Chris!

    Popping in... intimidated by all the unread postings. Comcast hopes to finally get wifi into our new old house tomorrow, but torrential rain is expected, oh well...

    will believe it after it happens. until then, love you.

    PAULA!!! Hope your wifi gets hooked up. I hope everything is going better and things are working out. <3<3

    Shelley, I did the dueling contest...lasted longer on my left but not for very long!! My balance sucks! :D

    My day did not go as planned. We did go for a walk in the rain again but that was about it until Ronan was picked up then I started decluttering the spare room. That's where he will be sleeping when he outgrows the bouncer we put him to sleep in. At least that's the thought for now. We'll see.

    Have a great Friday everyone!

    Hey there Paula! Are we glad to see you. <3<3 Miss you so much!

    Chris glad you got it done also. There is also one on kettlebells. Glad someone posted the workout. I was confused on what to do. :open_mouth: Glad you are getting things DE cluttered. I need to do more again. When I retire in 8 years we are all getting together. I will come visit.

    Weighed in at 150.2 this morning. Better. But not great. Got in 2 of the Heros Challenge on Darebee last night. Lots of pushups and squats. Almost caught up. Just need to get 2 done tonight.

    We are gutting our bathroom downstairs. The sink had a date stamped on in. 1955! Oh my.

    Shelley, I don't see a kettlebell duel...only the balance duel. Am I looking in the wrong place?

    Still 141.8...I'll get there. Worked w/our trainer for an hour this evening.

    Wow, how different this feels, sitting at home reading the threads. Elvis fm Comcast actually got everything done, and did an excellent job. they said they were sending their best man to make up for all the snafus and he really came thru!

    Chris, it really feels good to downsize, doesn't it. Now that the urgency has let up I find myself wanting to keep things just cuz they're so appealing. But then ask "but would we miss this if it was gone?" and if the answer is "no" then it needs a home where it is more appreciated. Some things we don't need, but are just so fun to admire that they get to stay.

    165.5 this morning. Still down from the 176 a month ago.

    I was 141.8 for the fourth time this week!! **sigh**

    Paula, worked in my closet today (three 45 gal bags worth) and now I'm in the library closet...ugly...old electronics...DH loves that stuff...**sigh** we'll see.

    Shelley, I think I made it! I did those exercises and more with our trainer on Wednesday!! I started laughing when I saw it. I did nothing but complain through the entire three sets!! Seems she saved my fanny this week!

    Back to the closet!

    Shelley, she will get a "no complaining" workout from me Wednesday! And a big hug!

    Paula I saw you on TV tonight. I hope things are getting done for you.

    So now they decide to have us clean closets and donate stuff...Man! Where were they last week, huh??? I took five 45 gal bags to Good Will Saturday. I still have a closet to unclutter. I got it half done today...got pictures first...now, I just need DH to go through clothes hanging in there that he hasn't even looked at in five years... :s:o:D;):p<3

    Chris I would so use those photos for this week! We need the points. And you did the work. One gal posted photos of cleaning a little bit of a living room! Really? That so is not in the spirit of it. I like the idea of going through clothing. I might use it. :smiley:

    I am on day 15 of the Hero's Challenge! This has been a great challenge for my daughter and I.

    Paula I hope all is well.

    Surprise!!! DH went through his clothes in the closet this afternoon. He kept some and bagged a bunch while I was watching Ronan sleep! I do love that man! Now to figure out how to get the pictures loaded. bwahahaha! ;)

    142.6 this morning. I have talked myself out of Ritz and pb&j for the last three days but if my weight keeps going up... :/

    Got to do our five miles w/DH after Ronan was picked up this afternoon. It was beautiful out there.
    DDD and I meet with our trainer tomorrow.

    198 this morning. I'm going in the wrong direction. Make it stop! My bff and I have walked 2 miles 3 days in a row and we're going to Zumba tonight. And my eating has been horrible. But still here...hope everyone is well.

    Not going up either though. o:) Keep trying Kathy. And watch them sneaky snacks!

    Hey I posted on here last night! I so did! Grrrrrr. I congratulated Chris on having a DH who cleaned out his closet and Kathy for her Zumba class and walks. And a bunch of other encouraging thoughts for you guys! Ok tonight is night 20 of the Hero's quest from Darebee. It is a fairly easy one. I did over a 100 pushups the other day at work. While wearing my duty belt and vest. Yep, did them on my knees!

    I realized last night that I have had my clown fish for almost 5 years. July will be 5. And they are still young. They can live to be 20.

    Hey, do the 30 or so boxes of things we've downsized count as cleaning?

    163.5 today. Heading for the 150's yeppity yep!

    Chris, so love the Ronan pictures! Keep them coming!! It's always nice and puts a smile on my face. Thank you. :)

    Shelley, So happy your clowns are doing well. Little proud fierce guy if I remember right?

    Kathy, Hang in there! Remember how you felt when you broke 200!!! You're still that warrior! This necklace (below) made it to safety - been wearing it lately because "hang in there" has been my mantra. Sending you strong thoughts!

    <3 Paula

    Paula after seeing the "straightening" up that others are counting I say what you do with your boxes should count double! How is everything going?

    All the brackets and railings are on the roof for our solar panels. Guest bathroom is a total wreck! Gutted. Water not always in pipes! :'( And toilet in the shower stall. LOL Picked out floor tile. Faucet is going to be a wall mounted one from Delta. The price has me gagging! We have to make the top for the new vanity. I want it to match a sink I bought 10 years ago. Planning on putting marble tile on it. Small area so the price is still not to bad. But what a mess!

    Bye all.

    oooooo... toilet in the shower, that sounds kind of interesting, hmmm... makes toilet paper somewhat ineffective and meaningless, doesn't it... :laugh:
