    Hey everyone, I'm here :)

    This weekend was very busy and now I have the week from hell at work. Going for my annual doctor appointment tomorrow, I'm sure she'll be very pleased with me.

    I made myself take a walk tonight knowing I needed to do something for exercise today. Worked at home last night and again tonight, have I mentioned that work is crazy this week. Of course I work with Europe so I have 6 hours to communicate with them by the time I get into work at 7am. Oh and they all want all of their quotes during my morning.

    I walked down stairs at work today and then 5 min later back up to my office and I was huffing and puffin. I really think I am fighting something because I am in the best shape I have been in over 5 years, I usually run up the stairs and barely be winded. Sorry ladies but I'm going to take it easy for a few days until I feel more like myself.

    Take care all! :flowerforyou:

    Julie,

    Sorry about your internet issues. Been there, done that. It is not fun:grumble:

    Ingrid,

    Do not apologize one bit for taking it easy. I tell everyone "Listen to your body. It will tell you when it needs some down time." I would rather you take things slow for a few days then go full speed ahead and cause yourself to be more worn down.:flowerforyou:

    Becca:wink:

    Sonia you're a riot! I'll be completely honest, this month has sucked for me this far. I can't get in gear. The weather has cooled off and I'm finding it very difficult to drink the required water. I've done pretty good staying under my calories, execpt for a few days, it is the 64oz of water that is making it so I can't claim that point. As for exercise, what exercise? Now that I have a dog bit with 2 puncture wounds on my right arm, I have to be careful to not aggrevate them. On a separate note, I bought a Walk-Away DVD that has another 5 mile walk with a resistance band (came with it). Looking forward to getting back on track even if only for cardio to start. I will get back on track, it is just going to take me a bit to do it.

    I believe it went down in the tortilla triangle...

    There was a pea soup fog...

    Unfortunately we ran into the iceberg lettuce in the thousand islands...
