    NSV - My Mother and Father in law are visiting with us for the weekend. When they got here we were talking for a little bit. I stood up to get some water and my Mother in law looked and me and said "You have lost weight, you look great!!!". It felt awesome to have her notice!! YAY!!!

    On another note - Ate a lot today, feeling a little bloated from the food, but I was still under in my cals and only over by 5g on my fat. Not great, but not all together terrible either!

    I just realized that I didn't post yesterday...there goes that point. And I know I am posting late today, but really I've only been home for about 15 minutes! I had to drive to the north end of CO to pick up my son from his dad's house after I got off work. I am so thankful for a 3 day weekend!

    I hope you all had a good day today!

    Sorry all.... been away from the computer all weekend! Went on a mini vacation, and came back to find that there is a fire in the next town over. On top of that, my fence decided to try to fall over. EEK! Hope everyone had a better holiday weekend than I did!

    Karie!
    We have mostly been on vacation. Louie's computer broke and she hasn't been able to do more then lost her calories because she can use her phone. Nathalie is on vacation until Friday and I have been on vacation too. I can still check in every once in a while though. =D

    Sorry Tasha... I had a horrible week last week...won't bore people and go into detail. But after looking over last weeks challenge I dont' think I gained any points, and I gained a pound. So, there's really nothing to add. But this week, I will be focused and determined to meet them all! :)

    Emotional Challenge:

    These challenges help me a lot...keeps me focused and on track, helps keep it in the forefront of my mind...if that makes any sense. :) I feel committed to this and a lot of that comes from the members that post here. I tried to just log on and track my food and exercise... but there were looonnnggg periods of time that I would forget. I found that I need a schedule of sorts and that's what you all here and the challenges help me with.

    This group has meant so much to me. It has given me the drive to workout each week, and it has helped me want to eat right! This challenge has helped me realize that there are many other mother's out there taking a little time out of their day for themselves, and that doesn't make us selfish, that above all has been the best thing for me. Also the constant support that Karie, Becky and Louie have given me over the last 7 weeks has been priceless and much needed. A HUGE thank you to everyone in the SAHMU challenge!!!
