    good morning..

    today looks like....pick up girls at 10:30 so they can spend the day with me and go swimming. run to store and get a few things. gym tonight with DH.

    stacey that sounds like fun. shanell got her permit to learn how to ride a bike. she has been doing pretty good. i haven't been on one since my teen years. burned my calf on the pipe, so never got back on one.

    better get to the store before i have to pick them up. i know once they get in the pool i won't be able to ge them out.

    Morning Sixers.

    This week has been going sooo well - I was really tempted to pull out the scale this morning - but I decided against it... I am a once a week girl these days :flowerforyou: Today I have to finish cleaning the house, go grocery shopping and then finsh cooking... I am excited for the shower tomorrow - hopefully everything goes well!

    Stacy. That sounds like so much fun! Have a great time!!!!!!!!

    just got my call job interview back on for tuesday at 10. excited. i found some cute summer dresses at ross yesterday i want. even though i will be working in a home office and not seeing anyone, doesn't mean i can't look nice. DH says when he gets there to do her pest control she's in her jammies. i am not that laid back.

    today was fixed mower, mowed lawns, as for some kind of workout. we went and helped shanell and her DH cut down trees for their pool to go in. it's 90+ degrees outside. i think that was a good workout, plus she had mowed their lawns which is large. i think i am done for the day

    Hi all

    Been away the last couple of days visiting my sister at university, did ok on the eating thurs and fri, even went for a run fri morning along the seafront. But yesterday was bad, now I'm home, adam is back at work and there's no food in the house which means I have to go to tesco and I cannot be bothered!

    Feeling a bit down today, post-holiday blues. Got a really hard week at work coming up and I'm getting a bit panicky about it :-(

    I won't have lost any weight this week but will be contented with maintain and ok if I gain up to 2lbs. Anything over that I'll be peeved with!!!!

    Talk to you all soon xx

    Hello!

    Cathy - AWESOME JOB on the 10 pounds! What an accomplishment!! :)

    Lula - I have been journaling since January. I do find it very helpful. I just filled up my first one yesterday. Excited to start a new one now. :)

    Everyone else, Hello!

    I walked my first FULL MARATHON yesterday!! I am so extremely proud of myself, and like high on life. :) It is something called Walk Wisconsin, and it's non-competetive - everyone is a winner just for trying. It is also geared towards just walking. :) I actually finished last, but I'm ok with it. Doctor told me to watch my HR and not go above 120. I had a hard time with that at times, and sometimes it felt like I was crawling, but I ended up with a average of 120, which is good I think. I'll check it out at my next appointment, which is at the end of June. Anyway, with all my rest stops and all, it took me 10 hours. They were so nice at the end, still made a big deal out of me finishing, and I was only about 10 minutes behind the lady who finished second to last. Also, I just keep reminding myself that I didn't really finish last, because there were 50+ people who didn't finish at all because they dropped out, so I definitely beat them. :) I can't wait to do it again next year - this time with hopefully more friends (I did it alone this year). My hubby came with me and rode his bike around the trails, so I never felt "alone". :D

    Hope everyone is havinga fabulous weekend!

    Way to go! I trained and walked The Portland Marathon 4 yrs ago. Wow, was it an accomplishment. I was actually very emotional crossing the finish line. And it was hard! Way to go!

    morning....

    ok, ladies we need a new name for the next 6 weeks. are any of you going onto another 6 weeks? i know i will. let's get a roll call so we can shorten the list.
    so far the "Sixers headed for the beach" has gotten the most votes. are there any other suggestions?

    i had a great weekend. hope you all did too. tomorrow is my job interview. excited and nervous at the same time. i want to go to work, yet i really like being home and doing what i want to do. it's only 3 days a week. if it doesn't pay enough i won't take it. it will be at least an hour drive one way. so i want enough for gas and to make a difference in our budget. we shall see tomorrow. don't know the pay yet or the hours, just the days. today i am cleaning house and maybe the gym later. we'll see.

    Good morning ladies!

    Sorry I've been MIA pretty much all of last week. I was SO super busy at work since it was a short week. I had NO clue what the scale will show tomorrow morning. I've been getting in plenty of exercise, but some of my food choices haven't been the best. So, we shall see...

    As far as the next challenge goes, I am SO on board. Want to shed at least 5 pounds next challenge! Sixers heading to the beach is fine with me. I'll let you go ahead and start the thread Cathy...I seem to be on the computer later in the mornings these days.

    well...need to get started on some things. I'll check back later!

    Just wanted to check in really quickly, I had a FANTASTIC time this weekend!! The ride was a lot of fun. Unfortunately, turns out sitting on my butt all day does NOT count as exercise - - please tell me someone else is surprised by this too?! :tongue: But i drank a lot, a lot, a lot. So, the scale said that I have gained 6 lbs!! I am hoping that it might just be water weight -- not looking forward to weigh in!

    Hope everyone has a great day!

    Hey ladies!

    The scale is being really nice to me right now. Yesterday was good but today is even better. I dont want to speak too soon but this morning I was in "onederland" by over 1 pound. I am going to attribute it to all the water I have been getting in. I really stepped it up last week and it helped. I just hope it sticks. I wont change my weight here again until I go to WW with my SIL tomorrow night. If it truely has stuck then I will update here.

    I have a new phone that let's me use mfp much easier... Still no internet at the new house. So, I haven't been able to check in as much... I am still working hard. Burned 950 cals yesterday and ate 1350. So if I keep this up I should see results... Hope you all have Ben doing great. It's hard to see your posts from the phone. Ttys.
