    Hello again everyone!!! I just spent an hour playing badminton in the dang high humidity! But I burned 623 calories so that wasn't too bad and I burnt 630 calories cleaning today. Does everyone else include cleaning as a workout? Or am I just nuts? Lol!!!
    Sam that is a great challenge! You are a great leader!!

    Hey Tami! How are ya? We have missed seeing your pretty face here!
    Thanks!! I'm good! Just a lot going on! Been having some trouble at the gym. The last two workouts, I get dizzy and nauseous and my abdomen get's tight. ( I am 29 weeks preggo tomorrow)...it's frustrating. And then had migraine/insomnia from Mon-Wed this week. Sooo, not good!! :laugh: :laugh:

    But it's all good! I will take it easy and just walk and do some easy calisthenics at home to keep myself strong. I was upset earlier..because I had tried the gym today....and lowered the intensity and was moving slower but I still felt bad. :(

    It's so weird....I know that not being able to work out doesn't mean I go back to weighing 270 lbs...but I hate feeling like I can't exercise the way I've grown to truly love and feel good about. And I am having another c-section so it will be a few weeks after that I can really get back into exercising.

    It's all mental! Just hard, you know! :smile:

    Tami I hope things get better for you. I honestly can't say I know how you feel because I haven't lost the weight like you have or been into exercising as much as you are. But I do understand what you are saying. You won't go back to 270 pounds and as soon as you are able you will be working out again and lose what little bit of baby weight you have gained and you will look great again! Don't worry hun but take care of your body. That is our challenge this week so you better listen to Sam!!!:bigsmile: :drinker: :flowerforyou:

    Good morning!! Sorry I was MIA yesterday, I was stuck at the hospital all day with my BFF. Shes having some problems with the surgical area that she had the hernia removed in back in Jan:sick:

    I hope everyone is doing well. Im so glad its Friday! I have an appt with the Dr this morning for my monthly B12 shot and general check up to see how Im holding out since I had to add more sugar into my diet. I guess Ive been doing good with it, havent had anymore dizzy spells since I saw her last month and upped my sugar intake some.

    I was wondering...has anyone heard how little Owen is doing? I saw Vanessa popped in for just a minute to tag the thread, but didnt see an update about her little guy:ohwell:

    Ok well Im off to start my day. Hope everyone has a beautiful Friday!:flowerforyou:

    Hey guys, missed the new thread.

    Coming back from 2 days off from exercise. Decided to take it easy yet again today. Took the dog for a walk and burned a whopping... drum roll please... 116 calories. Yeesh! That's not easy, that's like not moving.

    Anyway, I never count house stuff, but I am actually going to wear my HRM out and mow. Our yard is very steep both front and back and it's a push mower. I'm curious what I'll burn doing that.

    Seriously, as fast as I caught the burn baby burn bug, I took 2 days off and now have slacker blood running through my veins where I have to talk myself into working out. How does it happen so fast? It's why I need routine! I know me.

    Silly dog, left him out to do his business before we left but he didn't do it then. He decides to do it about 1/4 way into the walk so I get to pick it up and carry it. I still keep thinking I smell it. :sick: :sick: I've washed my hands twice and still keep inspecting myself for some random dog poo somewhere! :laugh:

    Better go mow before it hits 100 degrees with a heat index of 107. Yowza!
