    just had the loveliest compliment from my hubs--

    "Did you talk to your doctor yet about other medication? You're blowing up like a balloon. It's unbelievable. You look like you're three sizes bigger-- "

    Gee, thanks, hon---- guess I shouldn't complain-- it's a little better than his usual comments..."I like you puffy. Your boobs are bigger."

    Men-- :noway:

    Seriously, though-- things are just not good-- I have rolls upon rolls -- looks like I have to call the doctor tomorrow--

    Jan--

    That's the Couch to 5k program-- 9 week (I think) program to get you, well, off the couch and running a 5k.

    W and D represent week and day-- W1D2 is the second workout day of the first week of the program-- and so on, and so forth.

    Great program--

    Oh I get it. Thanks for the explanation.

    Good Morning Tanya- Hope your son is feeling better. Not fun when one of your little ones is sick.

    Good Morning Black Team! - Hope everyone had a nice long weekend. Drove up to see my mom in North Jersey last night (sorry Marla, still a little ways from you) She is in great spirits. I made her dinner. My nephew and his fiance moved in with her after my dad died a few months ago. It has been great company for her. She really can't live alone and having family with her is just priceless. She wouldn't even consider moving down with me. She's been in the house for 63 years and there's only one way she is coming out:ohwell: she will be 86 this month. God bless her.

    Kept the calories down for the rest of the night and drank my water. :drinker: I was pumped this morning and extended my run this morning an extra 2 miles. I keep listening to all your stories about pull ups with this machine and that machine. I can't fit it into my schedule....YET! but I will.

    I think I am actually looking forward to my weigh in tomorrow....of course I haven't gotten through the day yet.:bigsmile:

    Have a great day everyone. I'll try and check in at lunch.

    Good morning everyone:flowerforyou:

    Sounds like everyone is in a hurry this morning...same story here! Today is Alexs (my youngest) 15th birthday and I have to get my booty to the gym and then go get what I need to bake him a cake. I should have been ready for today, but this whole week has been rush, rush, rush it seems!:ohwell:

    Hope everyone gets in a great Last Chance workout today!:drinker: I will try to catch up with everyone later...:flowerforyou:

    I get it. It's the freedom of nobody except you to worry about. It's heaven. I have that feeling often as my kids get older and I can say things like "I'm going to store" and leave alone. It's great. I love my kids, love my family, but sometimes I just wanna do my own thing.

    I took my hubs to the gym with me yesterday, #1 because he needed to go and #2 because I felt bad that he was off work and I was leaving him here. I then feel the whole time like I have to do stuff with him, which is ok on occasion, but it does mess with my mojo.

    I am praying for a good weigh in tomorrow. The scale was so dang nice last week, not so much right now. I will be ecstatic with staying the same. Thrillled beyond belief. Can you tell I'm not expecting it? It's my love hate relationship with that stupid scale, loved it last week, coulda kissed it, hating it right now.

    I have a cold, darn sneezing and runny nose. Blah!

    I hit the gym for strictly a cardio last chance burn, then came home and took the dog for a 35 minute walk. 1175 calories. Stick a fork in me, I'm done.
