800 calories WOOT!! I feel strong and happy!! Full of endorphins :laugh:

I remember when I walked 1 mile and burned 200 cals. Now I have to be on the elliptical machine on 5 going 4.0 to burn 200 in that time. Guess it is good because we are getting more fit. But jeez, louise!!

Here's a question I might get a response to: How do I calculate calorie burn for digging? Okay yard work or gardening is not the same. HRM won't measure it. Large and I mean large pile of dirt left in a lot next to us and its an eye sore. Owner won't do anything about it so I am trying to level it out so the dog doesn't fall and break a hip. Its more then general yard work and I can't find anything that compares. Any suggestions?0

Ooo, is that chocolate syrup and cool whip?
We got home from New York. Cranky pants is in bed. To be fair, she was so good the whole trip. She slept almost the whole drive both ways. And last night she was up until 1am. There was a bus to go from the reception back to the hotel. It was supposed to be at 10pm, 11pm, and midnight. We missed the 10pm one and then it turned out the bus driver refused to do an 11pm one. So we were there until the end of the wedding and Harley didn't get to sleep til 1am. But she slept off and on on the bus ride to the reception, the cocktail hour, the reception, and the bus ride "home".
I'm getting my internet fix while the dogs are kissing all over Dave. Good to be home!0 -

Awesome bike Andrew - I'm sure you will have many happy years together... :laugh: :laugh:
Marla - I wondered what that was outside - I thought we were having a bad thunderstorm.. sorry for the hassle - isn't it amazing that the kids can time stuff like this just for the time you most don't need it.. and I only have 2 - can't imagine if I had 9 - I'd be committed..
Bobbi - what is happening with your hubby? Hope all is well - sorry if I haven't kept up.. good thoughts and prayers for both of you.
Jeannie - way to go on 800 calories. I'm so jealous.. since i hurt my back, I haven't gotten any appreciable exercise - I may lose my mind..
Lori - glad you made it home safe - sounds like Harley was a champ for the trip.
Lynnie - wish you lived around here - I'd bike with ya...
Night all. Janie0 -
Hey all, just checking in.
Andrew- enjoy that bike!
Jeannie- woot on your calories burned and i agree with you and Shuntae, it does take forever to burn those calories.
Marla- hang in there. Some days sure are like that and i only have 4, can't even imagine 9. You have been doing this kid stuff for a lot of years. We can't be mother of the year every day, we have hormones and moments and kids to drive us nuts. I'm sure that title is truly overrated anyway.
I had a super busy day, so much going on. Last soccer game for my kids. Bought the snack and drinks since it was our turn. Kids run off the field and ask for snack. Yeah, that would be at home.
Then we had a picnic for my DH's work. I am a key spouse for his detachment, so I helped plan it, had a huge list of stuff to take care of and take along, you know the drill. It went well. I stunk up the place with eating well. One of those days. I know weaknesses are sweets, cookies, cake, etc. When I'm faced with the challenge and it's right there in front of me. I fail. Oh whatever.
I did get in a 1.5 mile run today and things felt ok. The knee is still a little sore, the foot is the same. I'm going to do what I can do and be happy that I can do anything. It felt good to run. DH and I might go again in the morning.
3 more days at home, then we're off to Pennsylvania for 2 weeks. I have a thousand and three things to do between now and then.
I'm sleepy. Exhausted actually. Totally worn out. Ready for bed. Night all.0 -
I think it's bed time, but I just wanted to pop and say....
GOOD LUCK TOMMOROW SHUNTAE!!!!!!
Have fun! We'll be thinkin of ya!

Good Luck Shuntae ! The most important thing here is to have fun :flowerforyou:0

Good Luck Shuntae!!
I was hoping that Madison would wake up and start screaming about the balloons in a happy way well, she wasn't so happy and wanted me to clean up the livingroom. She doesn't want anyone to come over for her party and she just has been such a booger all morning.
Daddy worked late real late so I have both this morning. Thank GOD Ava is being good.

Good morning Sam. Hopefully M gets better. Little girl moods are the worst! :happy:0
-
One bike ride at a time!!
( I am not sure if the good is offset by the smell of Bengay??!!)0 -
Oh Sam, I am so sorry. I hated when I worked so hard for my kids and they just plain didnt appreciate it.
I guess they have good and bad days too. Hey, how abouts a big old smiley just for her??
HEY M.................

Morning all. So much going on today.
Shuntae- great wishes for your 5K!
Sam- the day will get better I'm sure. Kids are 'fun' aren't they? Trust me, they get so much more appreciative as teenagers. :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: (Ok, trying to make you feel better.)
Marla- hope things have calmed down in Marlaland.
Andrew- hope you and the fam get a bike ride in today.
I just got on the scale. It was not a pretty moment. Serves me right for those 3 (maybe 4) big soft numy nummy cookies I ate yesterday. Whatever. I wanted. I ate. Now I pay.
I have pretty much given up hope that my scale will say what I want when I leave for vacation on Wednesday. I guess I could stop eating between now and then, but what's the real point there? It's just a number.
I tried working out for results and all that got me was an extra pound. I will try and be good the next 3 days and hope the scale is nicer, but if it's not, it's not.
I keep trying to convince myself it was just a number, just a goal to work toward. I wanted to weigh 149.999 when I left, but if I weight 152- do I really think anybody will notice the difference? I wanted to say I lost 50 pounds when people asked. Is it so much worse to say 48?
Attitude here. I'm working on accepting what I have, being proud of what I have done and leaving it at that.0 -

Hey Bobbi - there is a category for barn chores that I use for cleaning stalls, etc. It seems pretty beefy on the calorie count, but still may not be as much as moving heavy dirt. Take a look and if it doesn't seem like enough, just add some.. not sure how else you could do it..
Good luck..
Good morning black team. How are you all doing?
Janie0 -
Morning Janie. Hope the back is feeling better or at least manageable. Although if it were me, I'd use it as an excuse to not have to clean those barn stalls!0

Good luck on the 5K Shuntae.
Sam - sorry about M - I hope she comes around once the other kids start showing up. sometimes fun can be infective..
Jeannie - love the smilies... can't wait to get approved to ride my bike - miss it terribly..
Lori - don't sweat the scale - you look great..
morning Lynnie and Bobbi - hope things are going well..
shout outs to all my other black team friends. hope your Sunday is fun and active.

Hey Lori - definitely no stalls for me.. I just rode my horse for about 3 minutes on Friday for the first time in 3 weeks on Friday. It felt so good, but I have to be really careful because I'm not really ready to do this. Just need something for my head though..

Lori.............STOP IT!
I gained 4 pounds the 1st week with the trainer and 3 inches!! it was on my legs and abs.....so really PO'd
she said the muscles swell just like when you get a bee sting or scrape. you muscles swell and retain water. So you did good in trying hard.
Dont give up!!
and you have MY permission to say " I have lost 50 pounds!!"
I would actually giggle if I met you and you said I am love 49.10 pounds!!
Love ya man!!:flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou:0 -

Janie sweety, wait to see what the doc says. I have seen ppl get an inch from recovery and then throw themselves back to square one ( in particular a friend who insisted on going back to tennis before her grade II ankle sprain was healed)
I know you have to for your brain....but it is so not worth it in the long run.
I pray you are better today! Jeannie 0
