    I am really hungry today!!

    I know I have the calories to eat but I'm afraid to eat them!?!?!

    I ran this AM which felt good. I got to do a mile all by myself because the wheel on the stroller broke and hubs had to go back to the car. So in all I get a jogging stroller YAY ME!!

    Tonight is softball and tomorrow is another bike ride. Thursday jogging and softball and friday is bike ride. I have decided to just do 30 day shred saturday either before we go to downtown disney or after but for sure one of those. Then sunday is Madison's birthday and we are having family over. We don't have much family down here so it shouldn't be that bad but we are doing a big party for both the girls up in NY!! OH JOY!! :laugh:

    Should be back later!!

    Sam- the problem with working off all of those calories is deciding how to eat. I still haven't decided if it's a good thing or not.

    Lynnie- glad you are feeling better

    Beth- the only way to jean shop is without kids. It's stressful enough without having kids there to take care of to.

    I think I have a problem. I am addicted to burning caloires. I did go to the gym, rode the bike 7 miles, walked 2 and lifted and was disappointed in myself when I left and 'only' burned 733 calories.

    I was there 1 hour and 40 minutes, I should be proud of myself. Plenty of people don't even get in 30 minutes of exercise a few days a week. I'm certainly exceeding the recommended amout of exercise for good health.

    I had a taste of 1,000 calorie days... now I want it every day. I'm a junkie!

    My abs are taking forever to come around-- I do about 100 crunches a night, but my muscles are SOOOO weak, that I have some of the soggiest crunches around-- I engage the muscles, but I never, ever have enough discomfort of any note.

    I even do the reverse crunches-- I'm going to try and do some of the hip raiser thingies and see how they go-- the running helps, though-- and not much I can do with 9 pregnancies worth of stretched skin and muscles--

    Not terribly worried-- hubs calls it a shock absorber-- :blushing:

    (I know TMI-- but he's so funny-- he says he feels like he's cheating these days, since I'm so thin, and feel so totally different-- ha-- too funny)

    Leaving you with that wonderful thought-- nite all--

    Hello fellow teammates! I worked my 12 hours day but had started off the day sick as a dog. Woke up sick last night and felt like puking and then kept that feeling for most of the day but never actually puked. I know TMI! Sorry but I have felt like crap all day. I didn't get my evening walk in because my stomach was still bothering me so I am relaxing to the point of almost falling asleep. I hope you all have had a great day! The scale hasn't been co-operating with me this week and hopefully by tomorrow something good will come from it!

    I have been working out more and eating most of my calories but not all of them and I have been drinking more water and a lot less soft drinks, some days none at all. But the scale seems to be fighting me every step of the way. My food intake isn't always that great but it isn't always that bad either. Last night was sick on my stomach and most of today and had awful heartburn too. Hubby wasn't so sure that I didn't have food poison or something but just a slight touch of it. Not sure. Didn't eat too much of anything today, not appealed to me. Anyway, I am looking sooo bloated and feeling that way and my belly looks bigger than it has been and it makes me feel icky. I feel like I am going backwards some days. I don't my TOM anymore so I know it's not that. Not sure what has caused all the bloating and sick feelings but I know I am not too sure of how my scale will react in the morning. Hoping for a good number for us all but not too sure how mine will turn out. Hope you are all having a great last chance workout. If you have any advice please send it my way!! I'm tired of having that muffin top!

    The scale treated me like a piece of dog dirt! After all that hard work I did this week I managed to gain a pound. I'm not even going into it and I'm not changing my ticker back up- it's a matter of principle! :grumble:

    Heading out for retail therapy. Peace out!

    Well, I lost 2lbs this week but I don't understand it!!! I've lost about 16lbs thus far and am still wearing the same size that I was before.

    My clothes are a tad looser, but I sure haven't gone down 1 size at all!!! I'm so frustrated because I look the same as before :grumble:

    How long do I have to wait to see results??????
