    Thanks! I'm looking for strength to make it through the week without gaining 10lbs!:grumble: All it is is going out for free fancy high-end suppers, drinks, etc. I will try to exercise though everyday if I get time. :flowerforyou: Man, I pigged out tonight, i was soo hungry from being outdoors. And, I am a cow!:sad:

    You are too hard on yourself. You needed to eat those calories because you burned those calories while working outside. You will be fine girly.
    Hey still looking for my passports so I can come up and see you. Then we will workout like crazy. :drinker:

    Find it! I need your motivation!!!:smooched:

    This Rach, in the long run is actually good. You'll be ok-women always prevail. I was 25 with 3 kids under the age of 31/2 when I got divorced! It has been the best thing for all of us, even my current hubby. (he was on the road to distruction and after some time, fighting and tears, he changed his ways). He credits us always for how he's turned out. His other family-nightmares!!! This will be good for you in many ways. Be strong, we're always here for you. Kath

    I have been doing good with my calories :bigsmile: and my water 1 liter so far today :drinker: I need to exercise still. We have been waiting for the warm weather and we got it that is for sure. Now its too hot. I know always complaining but I don't know if I can run in this weather. Ugh. I will try however. :tongue: Maybe the kids will ride bike while I jog. Have a wonderul evening everyone. And for the ones who has wonderful weather enjoy.

    Rach: ditto on what all the previous posters said. Keep your chin up. It will probably be raw for awhile, but just give yourself time to heal.

    In other business -

    Had a great weekend. We're prepping to move into a new townhome so did some packing for the upcoming move. We've only lived here for a year so I'm still amazed at how much stuff we have here after we trimmed last year before moving east. Now I know why my parents didn't move for 15 years :laugh:

    Otherwise, I rested on Saturday and worked out on Sunday - had a great time with my three boys just hanging out. I didn't journal my food on Saturday, but I think I did okay over all, despite a binge at the pizza parlor :ohwell:

    Holy cow it was about 95 here in Minnesota and just humid. My body just can't handle that. I did try to run 2miles however ended up walking most of the last mile due to feeling really light headed. I can't wait to get the Wii Active that is coming out. That way I can run while being in the central air. I think I'm going to do some ab workouts tonight they need to be worked on. Maybe some theigh stuff. We will see what happens.

    Hi Rach - endings are always hard but you'll be happier in the long run. Well done for doing what you know was right :)

    I'm back in my old jeans - more motivating than any numbers on a scale :bigsmile:

    I doubled up on exercise yesterday - at lunch I did Day 2 of Week 3 of Couch to 5K, last night I did a new release of the Group Power class-my butt muscles are still asking me what I was thinking....

    Down a little on the scale this morning - so good to see progress...

    Keep working hard and making smart healthy decisions everyone.

    Rach - sending some love your way... :heart:
    Jess-that's HOT-we've been in a cold spell so it's only been in the 60s - we're having lots of needed rain
    Welcome Joesgal!
    becbec-hope you feel better soon - rach was battling the same thing recently.
    lorro-old jeans rule don't they....I am at the point where I have no more smaller clothes and about ready to go down a size - I can zip just a tiny smidge tight so I am waiting about 3 or 4 more pounds before I go buy more....cool to need new clothes but so expensive.
    mnichol-way to go
    hmo4 - if you've survived all you've been thru, you've got motivation - let it out - let it roar baby!

    Feeling MUCH better today. I went and talked to my mom last night and told her I'm going to be moving back in this weekend. Since my brother is in the Air Force now, I'll get his old room, and she's going to let me take the space thats available in the basement to set up for working out. I kinda sat there and planned out my immediate future.

    My main focus is finishing school and throwing every penny at these student loans. I want to go back to doing P90x at 5am because I was the most consistent and saw the best results when I was in that routine before. Then if I find myself wandering to the kitchen in the evenings for comfort, I'm going to go running. (A big plus of being back in a sidewalked neighborhood :bigsmile: ). I might possibly do the C25k on my strength training days.

    I'm going to put a mini-fridge in my room...I know that sounds bad. My mom fills her fridge to the brim and its all tacos, pizza, hot dogs etc. Last time I lived there, I'd buy healthy food and not be able to find it! :noway: :laugh: So I'm going to keep a little fridge just for my fruits and veggies so they're easy to access.

    I feel better having a plan of attack, but this whole process is pretty scary for me. I haven't been single for longer than a month at a time since I was 15. Mostly due to my reliance on others to provide me the love that I don't give myself. So I'm preparing myself to do a lot of soul searching and self discovery over the next few months. :flowerforyou:

    The best feeling ever was when I was able to fit into jeans I hadn't been able to get past my hips since jr.high. Nothing says success like it.
