    Totally took off yesterday from diet and exercise and blamed it on TOM. Just needed a day where I gave myself permission instead of obsessing or beating myself up for slipping. It actually felt good and now I'm geared to get everything back on track. Didn't even bothering weighing this morning because I know my sodium was HIGH. Hope you all are doing well.

    Well I am back up .2. I guess that's not too bad considering my lack of exercise last week (stupid back!!) :) Uh oh, I just noticed Datenshi hasn't bee on in a while. She normally checks in every day, and I like to see what her weight loss is! She's doing so well and is very motivational! Hopefully she's doing ok. Happy Thursday!

    1. Stay within my calories (M, ___, ___. ____,
    2. No Late Night Snacking. (M, ___, ___. ____,
    3. Burn 3500 calories this week (M 450, 475, not gonna happen now.
    4. Weigh everyday and keep a log (M, Tu, W, ___, F - VERY BAD WEIGH IN

    Well, in addition to have raging cramps, HUGE weight gain (9 lb), I am now officially out of exercise commission for the next week due to plantar fasciitis, bursitis, and a sprained ankle. But it is amazing how much work crutches take. I even have the blisters on my hand to prove it. Keeping up with my family, not so easy. Spring break all next week and my anniversary date with hubby today, and I'm on crutches, can't fit in my pants, and feeling like, well you know. So I'm venting But this too shall pass. Just a momentary hiccup in a roller coaster ride.

    I hope you all have a wonderful, warm, sunny, active weekend. Burn a couple of extra calories for me :)

    morning...

    lula....get it all done at once and than nothing can go haywire for a few months. feel better. wrap wash clothes or hand towels around the crutches. rest.
    shanell...it cause you don't sit in front of the tv anymore. so you are moving and finding things to do.
    beky...washing cars can be good exercise you are bending (toe touches) twisting at the waist, it goes on. make a workout out of it.
    kisten...isn't this time of year great.
    everyone else....enjoy some out door exercise this weekend. it could be just hiking, playing a game, something to move ya.

    afm....went to gym. these two women come in and they were next to me on treadmill. i am doing my C25K and they kept looking at me. i could read their minds thinking how can she be running at her weight. only they did treadmill 15 mins and kept getting off and on. ok, them type. one should not have been wearing the pants she had on. on the machines they were thinking how big and bad they were. i did double their weights. and to top it off they don't wipe their machines. so i am wiping before i use. i have seen them once before in there and they did the same thing. why do those people go to the gym? they go and wonder why they aren't losing any weight sitting at some restaurant eating lunch. there is no effort. i shouldn't judge. just orated today. son problems again. only about 6 weeks until he moves. he got a new job, so hope working normal hours and he won't be here. but, than he will be at night. DH and i will miss that.
    oh, and now my doggie can't see out of his good eye. the cataracts have taken over. vet said not worth the surgery. we don't have that kind of money anyway. so we have to help him around now.

    off to the shower, later

    Beky...you're doing great!

    Shanell...busy mommy!! Don't you LOVE playing that role?! I do!

    Everyone else...HELLO!

    AFM: Had a good night last night. Been working myself hard this week so decided to walk last night instead of run. Still burned over 200 calories. Then did my shred-level 2...day 10 done now! YAY! Gonna stick with level 2 for a while...it works the abs SO well!!

    Oh! And it's official...I'm going on vacation to Canada to visit family and friends on May 14th with my mom and Kadence! I can't wait!! BUT...I'd like to lose a little more before I go...so I have some incentive!!

    Plan today:
    Food--
    B-Kix, skim milk, coffee w/sugarfree creamer
    S-Banana, cereal bar
    L-Turkey, 1 oz. cheese, lettuce and mustard on light whole wheat, baby carrots, and light yogurt
    S-Apple
    D-Chicken and rice bake, some green veggie
    S-??? Maybe a glass of wine!

    Exercise--
    JM Shred day 11-level 2
    --it's currently raining and cold so probably no run or walk this evening.

    Have a FANTASTIC day!

    Cathy. I am SOOO sorry to hear about your pup! Hugs. Ugh... some people at the gym s*ck... that's why I elliptical at home now...:happy: I always felt like I was being judged... I just wanted to walk right over to some of those girls and tell them to work out or get out... hmmm... don't worry about them you are doing great!!!

    Kristin. Keep up the GREAT work!

    afm. this week just keeps getting worse... :grumble: i have no motivation... I want it, but just can't seem to stay on track... going to take it easy for a couple days and try to work my way back into things slowly... I haven't been drinking my water, exercising or eating well... yup. it has been bad... bad bad.

    Hi all!

    Cathy - sorry to hear about your pup! :( Also, I know what you mean about those women at the gym! I used to be one! Haha - I would go and work out for a few minutes never really having a routine and wondering why it didn't work! However, I DID/and still DO clean my machines every time I work out in a public place. :)

    Kristin - Yay for incentive! :)

    Mlek - You'll find your motivation (it's in there somewhere!) :)

    Lula - YUCK! I hate injuries like that. It's like you get sent into a downward spiral :(

    As for me - Hubby, son and I are headed to VA to visit a friend from HS for a WEEK. Yay! We leave AFTER I walk a 1/2 marathon (possibly in the cold, cold rain). Yuck - why do I do this to myself?? :) Haha. I'll be checking in though because I am bringing laptop on the road, and I'm insistent that I will keep up my marathon training AND my diet while on vacation. We'll see how that goes! One can dream.... :) Talk to you soon!

    1. Stay within my calories (M, ___, ___. ____, F
    2. No Late Night Snacking. (M, ___, ___. ____, F
    3. Weigh everyday and keep a log (M, Tu, W, ___, F, Sa to come later )

    Who knew you could burn so many calories and build so many muscles using crutches. They should make a race out of it. I was ALL over the place. Lots of walking, hopping ALL day. At one point, we had 5 minutes to get to a ferry and was doing the three-legged run. My 55-year-old fit uncle was actually huffing and puffing beside me to keep up. But you should see the blisters on my hand. My hubby says it looks like I got a bad burn as I have three huge blisters. But we had a blast yesterday on our "date". Got home after 1 am and here I am working at 3 am. So come 9 am, back to bed for me. My husband said with everything I did yesterday, it was like running on my hands and my upper body is SOOORRRREEEEE!!!!!!

    jmiller - I hope you and your family have a blast with your friend.

    Kristin - Awesome success. You are an inspiration.

    mlek - Keep your chin up. Each day is a wonderful new beginning (thank goodness)

    Cathy - Sorry to hear about your frustrations. And sorry to hear your littlest member of the family is having a rough time. He has a wonderful mommy :)

    Okay to work. Thank you for keeping me company this morning ladies. Have a great and wonderful weekend!

    Good morning gals!! Happy Monday!

    Had a wonderful and productive weekend!! Saturday we went and got some stuff for work we're doing in our house this summer...also got a new hammock for our backyard. Did some yard work, took down christmas lights (finally), went out for a lovely lunch, did my shred, and watched a movie! Then yesterday I did my shred, went for a fun, cleaned and did laundry, organized my desk, made a wonderful dinner, and had lots and lots of fun with my daughter! GREAT weekend!!!

    Plan today:
    Food--
    B-Kix, skim milk, coffee w/sugarfree creamer
    S-Banana, cereal bar
    L-Green salad, baby tomatos, cucumber, spritzer dressing, light yogurt
    S-Apple
    D-Broiled Tilapia parmeasan, couscous, and green beans
    S-Fat free frozen yogurt-wildberry swirl

    Exercise--
    JM Shred day 14-level 2 (gonna stick with level 2 probably for another few days, then onto level 3!
    Maybe a run, but it's supposed to rain again and it's pretty chilly...so this is for sure just a "maybe"

    Have a FABULOUS day!!
