    Shanells dear sweet husband just killed me. I meet him to walk around our duck pond (in subdivision) 4 times around is one mile. He counted, don't know how many times we went around. i burned 640 calories in 45 mins of walking. he walks fast. a really nice workout. i was just sitting on the computer anyway.

    what a day yesterday turned out to be. i worked off some serious calories. after the walk came home went straight for the store with son for some supplies and left for his trailer. worked there in the 85+ degree humid heat for hours. came home showered and we fixed a bunch of quickie stuff i keep in the freezer just for days like this. and went to bed at 9:30. i am so tired this morning. i really need to head to the gym, but, my body is telling me no i want to rest today. the weekend is rest day. i will go soon.

    have a good day all.

    Good morning!

    Cathy...working hard! Good job! But do listen to your body!
    Everyone else...HELLO!

    AFM: Had yet another good night. Got in a run and my shred. Today it's raining again, so I'm guessing there will be no running. Thinking about doing my Yoga workout after my shred tonight...we shall see...

    Plan today:
    Food--
    B-Cinnamon burst Cheerios, skim milk, coffee w/sugarfree creamer
    S-cereal bar
    L-Mixed green salad, cucumber, baby tomatos, spritzer dressing, light yogurt, popcorn
    S-Grapefruit
    D-Leftover Turkey Fiesta Pie
    S-Pudding with cool whip

    Exercise--
    JM Shred day 18--level3
    Maybe JM Yoga Meltdown

    Oh! And we still need to think about our next challenge...
    Ideas for the name...
    SIXERS Splashing Slimdown
    SIXERS Melting away for summer

    Any other suggestions??

    Have a great day!

    just got back from the gym. i pushed my body and i was determined not to leave until i hit 1000 calories burned. i did it too. i am taking the weekend off.

    kisten i found that if i plan an exercise for the next day, than when something throws it out of whack, i use it as an excuse to not do it. so for me i have to just play it by ear for the day.

    off to shower and hope to take the car in for it's oil change. i have DH making the appt since he's off today.

    later

    Hey Sixers! I just checked out my BFFs wedding webpage and it said "120 days to go" - yikes only 4 months before I have to fit into this adorable, but tiny bridesmaids dress... ugh...it fits Ok, but looks terrible.... that right there is perfect motivation to get my a** back in gear.

    I was so stressed @ work this AM I forgot to eat :noway:
    so I am off to grab somethign healthy and filling for lunch!

    My goals for the next week are to LOG, LOG, LOG!!!

    Hello all! Keep up the great work!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :drinker:

    Wow Cathy! Great burn... Keep it up!

    I started logging this morning, but decided not to for the rest of the day. Got to school and had an Easter basket on my desk from the resource room teacher. Been snacking on cookies and candy all day. I'm planning on hitting the gym after school, so it's all good. I just can't remember what all I've eaten...

    Tomorrow is another day!

    Good afternoon girlies!

    Lindsey....ah! I LOVE easter goodies!! Trying to keep myself in control this weekend!

    Em...let the bridesmaid dress be your motivation! You can do it!!

    Cathy...good workout!!

    AFM: Happy to report that my size 10 jeans are loose! YAY!! I've never been anything smaller than a size 10 (except when I was in junior high and high school) so pretty exciting to me!! Just wish the baby belly flab would disappear...but from what I hear, the loose skin stays pretty much for good...so I can only do the best I can and I've come to the realization and acceptance, that my belly may never be bikini-ready again. But it's okay. I'll rock the hot one-pieces!! :) ANYways...heading home from work here in a few, picking up Kadence and taking her to go see the Easter Bunny! Should be fun! Then a little shopping, left-overs for dinner, exercise and a movie! YAY! Have a super night gals and if I don't get on over the weekend (I usually don't) have a FABULOUS Easter!!!

    Just a quick hello.
    Lindsey, Yes my ankle is better. Went running for the first time in a week and loved it. Although it kind of surprised me how out of shape I felt in just one week of not exercising. Heart rate was higher than before...the good side being I burned more calories. Stepped on the scale to keep it real yesterday and wasn't as bad as I thought, but could have been better. So gonna do some serious burn this week, while still babying my ankle to finish this challenge stronger than I started it.

    Hope you all have a beautiful, fun weekend. Keep active :)

    Back from vacation. Yikes I don't want to step on the scale!!! Vacation did not go the way I had hoped. The hotel I specifically had my hubby book because of the exercise center, had the treadmills marked as Out of Order the entire week. Hubby is going to write to the manager! Grr... I walked around alot, but I never logged my food and just let myself go. We shall see tomorrow what the damage is. Yikes. Happy Easter!

    i AM NEVER DOING THAT AGAIN!!
    no scales = no progress!!! bad times!! however! i have maintained so that is a very positive thing!!

    its easter sunday today and i'm going to my mums for dinner. will start again tomorrow!! I've got two weeks left of the ridiculous working and then I'm all back to normal in May. So I'll have a hardcore May!

    although i've logged in I'm going to be a bit naff with the logging in for two weeks still (cos of the insane working patterns). i'll check in for next challenge but i'm not going to be on form till after May 6th. Sorry ladies!!! But i will be back i promise!!

    Happy Easter to everyone. I hope to be joining back soon. I had a really bad fall 6 weeks ago and have been laid up. Still not up to par. But really wanted to wish you all a great day. This is the frist time I have turned on my computer in almost 2 months. Miss you all and will talk at you later.:flowerforyou:

    Thanks Cathy What I really have is a torn menicus. I am not sure on the spelling so I just wrote sprang knee. How ever with hurting my ankle back in Nov. and then this in March I am at my wits end. I am so trying to stay away from food the best I can. I sure hope that I won't have to have surgery on my knee. I can't even get to work without someone driving me(I have stick shift in my truck) and of course I need someone to help me at this point. Even more this has me worried that I won't be able to dance at my wedding. I am going to try to workout a little this week . Mostly abs and arms if nothing else. So wish me luck. I really miss walking my three to four miles a day. This has been the most depressing injury I have ever had. As a kid I was the biggest Tom boy around and never had a broken bone, sprang, or anything like these last 2 injuries. I sure hope this is it for the rest of my life. Hey, Thanks for listening. :flowerforyou: I hope coming back here(home) will pick up my mood. I sure miss being here.

    Kel:heart:

    Hey ladies!!

    Kel- I'm surprised you haven't had surgery yet. That's the only way to fix that problem. My hubby had that and a torn tendon in his knee. Now he thinks his other knee might be going. Hope you get better.

    AFM: I have been trutting along with the hubby and him wanting to be healthy too. I figured we'll make some small changes. Also, getting into our new routines with his new position. Plus, girls are on spring break this week, so they are wild!!!
    Today, we had Wendy's for dinner, and I kinda felt bad for what I ate, so I came home and mowed the front yard. I had already done Zumba at lunch time too. So, lots of exercise today. Yay!!! Just need to get that water in.

    Well, on to a new week tomorrow. Good luck!!!

    Crashed and burned for two weeks but am back on track today. Will weigh in tomorrow as I am likely up 5 lbs or so.

    Have at least gotten some exercise geocaching but ate lots of junk the last couple of weeks.

    Take care,

    Monday Check-in

    Was about 236 last week and today I am at 233. I am trying Herbalife to see what kind of results I get but it seems pretty expensive. Granted I used to eat out so much that it might be equal in the cost in the long run.

    I hiked for 1.5 hours on Saturday and almost 2.5 hours on Sunday and so my legs are killing me but the amazing views were so worth it, not to mention the health benefits.

    i hope everyone else had a good weekend and has a great week ahead.
