    Steph, I didn't realize you were in Canada. I've always wanted to visit there since I read Anne of Green Gables (I've also wanted red hair, but I'm not courageous enough to dye mine)

    Haha, yeah! There's a TV show, but I never watch it. I saw it on the other day.

    quick check in from work computer, I am so tired. Working all day is so exhausting, thank goodness its only for a week. Absolutely no energy to exercise and as for counting calories, the week started well 3 out of 7 days wont be so bad.
    Keep up the good work girls

    Aw, Kate. :flowerforyou: That's awesome you were there for your family! :happy:

    Good counting on almost most days, Jen.

    I haven't workout out in 2 days, and have eaten badly for most of both. Gonna make me a nice dinner, and call it a day.

    Hey, Ladies!

    I didn't disappear. I have been trying to give my kids more time. Unfortunately, I have a terrible time finding balance in life. It seems like if I'm exercising, then that's all I'm able to accomplish. Right now I'm trying to shift my focus.

    I hope that you're both doing well.

    Kate, I know what you mean about balance. Same here its either everything or nothing with me. this has to be made to fit into life to be successful.

    Yeah, I'm sort of in the same boat, except I'm putting everything to the side, even things I should really get going on. :blushing: Oh well, I've still had a workout here and there to keep my upward yo-yo-like movement on the scale in a reasonable zone.

    Good to see that we're all still hanging around.

    Keep doing your best, Ladies!

    I think I'm starting to miss doing Jillian's workout. Must try and find the time again.

    I did Ripped in 30, 2 days ago after a couple weeks of not really doing it/much of anything, and I'm still sore today! Haha. I'm trying to get back with Jillian again, so I can maybe be on the right path again come September.

    Jen, are you working with the Shred? You too Kate?

    I haven't really exercised at all since the 4th of July. My little brain seems only capable of holding one thing at a time. When I was focusing on MY health, everything else in my life seemed to suffer. My house was a constant mess and my little children seemed to be in charge. I have spent the last few weeks trying to get my family back in order. I'm hoping that I will be able to get back to something soon.

    Well done Kate. Sorry i haven't been here. Have been away on holidays and only had ipod to log on with so couldn't access community pages. Got back 4 days ago but have been ill. Missed out on doing the City 2 Surf Fun run/walk today. So disappointed as that has been my goal for the last 12 months was to participate in it. 85,000 people did, don't suppose they missed me. Next year I will do it. When I am well looking forward to getting back into some serious exercise. But like you Kate I have to find a way that it dosen't take over my life.

    It's the last week of summer vacation and I'm spending it with my children, not Jillian. I hope to get back in full swing next week.

    Sweet! I'm at home "taking care of" / "watching" my bro and sis while my mom is house sitting. This is the most I've ever been alone with them, haha. Enjoy the family time!

    Enjoy your children Kate. My daughter wants to borrow Jillian for a while.
