    Hi guys! Sorry I dont have time to read back all the pages that Im behind (and from glancing over this one page I AM soooo behind lol) but I did want to check in and say that the weather here has been really cooperative for this weeks challenge!:happy: So nice out this week! Yesterday I was out for about 3 hours playing tennis, the day before that...basketball with my teenagers....today more tennis here in a few mins.....GREAT challenge this week, thank you for that:flowerforyou: Anyway, it just occurred to me that today is "last chance workout" day....so lets make it a good one guys!:wink: Have a beautiful day everyone and I promise to try and get more caught up with things tomorrow:embarassed:

    Geez Louise, a one ounce chunk of Colby cheese is a puny little thing-- :grumble:

    Enlightening things, these food scales. :noway:

    I think food scales are horrible and I think they weigh my favorite foods (like cheese) heavy! :laugh:

    I did 45 minutes on the elliptical this morning while Harley took a nap. I planned to take her for a walk in her jogging stroller when she woke up. I really didn't feel like it but I needed to to finish this week's challenge. Plus it is beautiful outside today. Sunny and warm. I think it's in the low 50's but it feels like 60's because the sun is shining and it's not windy.

    So I dragged my butt outside. I'm glad too. Harley likes looking around and I know the sun and fresh air are good for both of us. So good challenge. Without it, I might have slacked and stayed inside, wasting an awesome pre-spring day! :flowerforyou:

    We said you don't have to creep anymore. You are allowed to "talk" you know. :laugh:

    I like shredded cheese because you get 1/4 cup instead of one tiny cube. It tricks me into thinking I'm getting more cheese than I really am! :laugh:

    Woooooo hooooooooooooo--

    Just got back from a beautiful run with Bandit-- go figure. He's my Siberian husky, by the way--

    I have a lovely loop in my development, just about a mile that we'd measured-- little up, little down, nice rolling track-- and I did three laps-- no flippin' way!!!!!!! Then I walked 1/4 mile to cool down. I am so psyched....

    31 minutes solid running followed by about 8 minutes of walking-- heading to type. Nytol.

    Marla, Way to go girl:flowerforyou:

    Beth, Welcome!

    I just did a new workout & only burned 200 cals. I think I need to do a few more before this day is over. :grumble: I DID take a 1/2 mile walk with T on my hip, M holding my hand & Z running ahead of us while I screamed "STAY ON THE PATH DO NOT RUN TO THE WATER I SAID STAY ON THE CONCRETE THE WATER IS DANGEROUS" at the top of my lungs over & over again. :bigsmile: That had to burn some cals. :laugh:

    Andrew - were they batman bandaids? :indifferent:

    Amanda - glad the swim was good!

    Lori - YAY for 45 min.! I remember it like yesterday that you could only do 20. YAY!

    Marla - cheese is the devil.

    Hi, Bobbi!

    Nicky - how did the dr. appt. go? that was yesterday, right?

    It went like this:

    Doc: *poke*
    Me: *whimper*
    Doc: *POKE*
    Me: :mad:

    So, basically, more tests.

    Thanks. What frustrates me is I'm feeling worse and worse every week so I wish they'd hurry up and figure this one out before I curl up and die or something!

    It's probably something so assinine and simple that it's escaping notice. With my luck. Haha.

    Hang in there Nicky - they must be close..

    I just logged on to whine for a little bit.. I don't normally do this, but I am really frustrated..

    I'm trying to be good - eating within my calories and working out more than this old body ever worked out, but I feel like I just keep going backwards.. scale is up, body feels like someone has been beating me, and I had shin splints and hip pain so bad I could only do 2 - 60 second runs on the treadmill before I had to limp back to my desk.:grumble: :grumble: :grumble: :grumble:

    Is it possible that my body is warring against me? :cry: :cry: :cry:
