Sam, well we are glad you are back to, Glad you had sorta a good time. Me and my MIL just dont speak most of the time we are around each others its better that way. and when my husband tells me we are going out there I sorta go uuuggghhhh!!!! Do I have to??? But I do because I love him and its HIS mom.

I really didnt want to get up at 445 this morning and run but I did 5 miles 1 hour 4 minutes 590 calories burned, my hip is sore.

My oatmeal is going off in the microwave as we speak ( well I type)

My baby will be here shortly, I missed her yesterday...

Hope everyone has a great day.

Amanda what a good weigh in.

I feel like I am not helping the team out because I am at goal and not losing anymore just on maintance. What a sorry feeling. Well gotta stay at this weight and be accountable to someone so might as well be the black team, who is the best!!!!

Amanda what a good weigh in.

Oh, for goodness sake-- bite your tongue, woman-- the fact that you're at goal-- 1-2-5 freakin' pounds helps us every day-- looking at what you accomplished, and Andrew and Roni and Shuntae-- these are amazing, amazing numbers, Tamara-- that is what keeps me going!

You stop being negative about yourself this minute, young lady-- don't make me come out there!

And you're right-- black team rules-- I talk about you guys all the time, and give you all so much credit for how far I've come-- being accountable to you all has really helped.

to you all-- welcome home, Sam-- "family" vacations-- ugh-- is there anything else like it? We stopped over a decade ago-- why waste my hard-earned vacation on people who bug the junk outta me? (I used junk in honor of Sara-- it cracks me up when she uses it-- ha)

Later, my teammates!

Tamara, look at your ticker, look at what you have done. That is SO AWESOME!!! You have changed your life and the lives of others around you!

Let's be honest my weigh-in was water weight and caffiene that I was getting rid of. I mean I did exercise very well and made good food choices but most of that was water weight. Weight I might add I have already lost once this year and foolishly gained back. So while my weigh-in number was great my proudness over it is overshadow by the fact I saw that number on the scale five months ago. :grumble:

Tamara- read Marla's post- believe her.

Marla- what a great before picture! Well, you know what I mean. It really shows all your progress. You don't even look like the same person.

Amanda- with you on the excitement factor when you are losing weight you already lost. Sorta loses the punch. I've been losing and gaining the same 3 or 4 pounds for freaking months!

Sam- glad you are back girl. Your vacation turned out just like you expected, right? LOL

Did my walk, did the gym, did more cardio, did Walmart, did Lowes. Now if somebody would do my laundry and clean my house, I've got other stuff I wanna do.....

Getting ready to paint a buffet I bought. Digging out old paint clothes. Found a tank top I used to think fit me cute (45 pounds ago). I put it on and started laughing. Now it hangs like a tater sack. Don't you love that?

I dont think of Black Team land as a place I am competing with anyone. It is a place I come to where
everybody knows my name, and they're always glad I came.........just made that up all on my own

Cheers:drinker:


(if we left because of maint or not losing I would have been gone before I started:blushing: )

I love you guys

Good Morning Black team!!!!

I want to start off with a nre personal record. 5 miles done in 57 minutes 505 calories burned. Yay yay yay me, second aunt flo came to visit this morning so I didnt even feel like going out but I did and not only did I do 5 miles I did an extra 2 to step it up a notch.

Also, I was on the website for my marathon in Oct and I am starting to get nervous. I also have few questions, this will be my first marathon. They are having a spaghetti dinner the nght before if I dont go to that do I need to load up on carbs???? and NOT weigh they next morning. I was thinking about going to olive garden. I am afraid I wont finish it 13.1 miles and the course opens at 7 and closes at 10:30, in my mind I am saying ONLY 3 hours.

Well hope everyone is having a great day!!! My baby will be here shortly.
