    Yea and i have to work the next three days! Ugghhhh!!! How much can one person miss when they work 12 hour days? I will have too much reading to do by the time I get back!!! Someone should take notes to keep me informed. Shouldn't that be done by our fearless MASCOT???? Lol!!! That way I can stay informed!

    I am a thread stalker sometimes.

    I am so tired these days that I just sit here in a daze, reading!! :laugh: :blushing:

    By looking at your number of posts, I'd say you do your fair share of posting too! :laugh:

    When is your due date? I saw you said early September. My daughter was born on September 3rd last year. (Her due date was the 12th.)

    Evening all.

    Still busy I see. Well hitting the gym actually made the achey back feel better. got 530 calories burned and feeling much better. Anyhoo I have another long day at work tommorow but at least I am not doing a rediculous amount of driving for a change. Have a great night friends!

    I thought I was the only one who stalks this thread!! Now I don't feel as bad. :laugh:

    Guilty-- I do it, too during the day when I'm supposed to be typing. :blushing:

    I have banana bread in the oven and I think I'm drooling on my keyboard......

    My husband likes really green bananas. The other day I got semi-green ones at Wal*Mart. Then I went to Giant Eagle and they had even greener ones so I bought more. We ended up with about 2 dozen bananas. (Oops!) Even eating 2 a day, DH didn't get through them in green-ness time so now we have about 8 brown-spotted bananas on our table. Too bad I don't like banana bread.

    We go through bananas so fast I have to hide some so I can use them for banana bread! How sad (or good) is that? We have 4 kids ages 9-13, so we go through lots of everything fast!

    Try more than doubling the kid count-- the bananas don't even make it home from the store--

    I'm not kidding. :ohwell:

    Dragging my weary butt to bed, folks-- done typing for the night, but must resume 9ish to get my 10am deadlines met.

    Got my 3 miles in, but oh my-- was it hard, tonight-- I hit a brick wall at 2.5 and caught myself saying, "Oh, I think I have to stop." Kicked that thought right to the curb and pressed on, albeit a bit slower-- (read backwards-- hee)

    Longing for a simpler existence-- this one is too freaking exhausting. Heading out to run at 10pm after a full blinkin' day of aggravation and then typing til 1am every morning-- :noway: :grumble:

    But, oh well-- I'm tired and prone to bicching-- best just to sign off and shut the heck up.

    Nite all-- :yawn:

    I'm in for the 200 calories and dedicating a pound to the cause.


    Had a bad day though. My job keeps on making me sample food. Eating healthy just way over the 1200 calories. Today was 1600. :sick:

    I stand corrected! I drank some cider too. 1900 calories. Shameful. Gym tomorrow for me.

    I don't know how you do it Marla.... you must like kids more than I do! Plus, I avoid taking mine along to the store at all costs.

    I got in 750 cals at the gym yesterday! WOO! I still need to pledge my lb for lb, but I'm scared b/c that means setting a goal & those freak me out. :indifferent:

    YIKES!!! My husband made a fresh strawberry pie last night...homemade crust & all...with real whipped cream topping. Road stationary bike 6 miles, but not near enough to burn off those calories. I'll have to get back on track today. Yesterday was a disaster. Definitely will get in some cardio this morning before work & go to the gym after. Need to burn at least 400 calories today.

    Looks like it's gonna rain the rest of the day. Guess my workout will be indoors. Now the decision is to do Wii fit, Jillian Wii, or Jillian DVD????

    Party? Please tell me someone didnt say PARTY!:noway: Girly-Beans I been avoiding parties at all costs lately lol. Partys ALWAYS mean there will be CAKE:noway: :laugh: But I do have one coming up for my youngests' 8th grade graduation on the 28th. Im trying real hard to hit that 100 lbs gone mark before then so I can treat myself to just one little tiny sliver of his cake as a reward:blushing:
    Thank you so much for your kind words Sara...you and Jeannie and Marla and a few others have been with me from "the start" it feels like and were always there and ready to give me words of encouragment and keep me moving on when I felt like I wasnt getting anywhere. I just wanted to say that and you ladies will never know how much its meant to me. Now, before I start a cry-fest I will end this subject with a simple I :heart: my Black Team!:flowerforyou: :drinker:
    P.S. I could never forget the guy that keeps me moving on either...Andrew:heart:

    Good morning everyone!

    I didn't wake up early this morning because it's supposed to be a "rest" day...well, that and it's hard to get up at 5 am to exercise! I'm hoping to sneak in a workout tonight after I get home from work. Hopefully hubby or 19 yr old will watch the little ones for me.

    Yesterday I burned 700 cals working out. 45 min in the morning with My Fitness Coach, and a half an hour "run" in the evening (lol, I'm no where near running - more like a slow jiggly jog - but I'm hoping to get there someday!). I actually ran up the hill (when I say hill, I live in the Appalachian Mountains in WV, so they are STEEP) though I had to stop and walk here and there.

    I think I have an exercise addiction. I quit one addiction for another lol - smoking to exercising - but I think that's a step in the right direction :smile:

    Good morning. I think I might start my 30 day shred DVD today. I joined a challenge that begins next week, but I thought I might start it today just to see what it's like, and get my exercise in, as it's very nasty outside today.
