Tamara lost the most weight this week at a 5.4 lb loss for 3.72%!
We saw some great numbers this week so great work. For those of us that didnt. Keep at it! it will happen I swear!
Great job everyone!

Came across another old photo today-- ugh. 2002 above left-- 2009 above right--
Very motivating to keep it going.
So proud of this team. The challenge today has been very, very helpful. Didn't take a bite of Caleb's Twix bar because I couldn't log it-- thanks, so much, Batman!
Ain't no stoppin' us nowwwwwwwww--0 -
What I learned from measuring today:
* 1/4 cup of granola is what I've been counting, not been eating that much, probably more like an 1/8- cool in my favor
* I actually weighed my sweet potato- been off on that one big time, but I have to admit I had a sneaking suspicion I was- what I counted as a large sweet potato was twice that in weight. :ohwell: I also found some discrepancy in the nutritional values for sweet potato on here though, so I am good now.
*What I thought was 4 oz of chicken was only 2.5 oz. Good for me too.
It's been good today, will continue to weigh and measure tomorrow. Oddly for me, I think I eyeball and don't give myself enough. Well, cept that sweet tater. Yummy!
Marla- this one is for you. Just me bugging the snot out of my teenager, wearing my sweatshirt that looks like his shirt! TeeHee! Of course I had on a different sweatshirt but when I saw him, I immediately ran to change.
Edit: Edit to wonder if those chin firming things I've seen on infomercials work.... hmmmmm. My chins need to work out.0 -

Haaaa!!!!! Lori, I love it-- he looks soooo thrilled. Much like the face Aaron had on when he saw me in my varsity jacket. Love, love, love it--
Speaking of Aeropostale-- my kids only wear it if we happen to get it in handmedown's from township friends. Hell, everybody knows the Brown's have 8,000 kids and could probably use their old clothes. We get lovely stuff, and Rebekah and Hope (12 and 10) both happen to have a pair of their sweat pants.
I overheard Hope today talking to Rebekah about how interesting it was that any time there's a number on the sweat pants, it always happens to be '87 or 1987. "Hope, honey, it's because they're both from Aeropostale." She, naturally, argued for a bit first before checking the tag on her pants.
Kids-- this is why we delight in torturing them so-- they think they know stinkin' everything--0 -

Marla - WOW! Great motivater....and your doggie has the hots for you too! I did the same except. I didn't get to exercise today (not yet anyway, may get the energy later) I was logging two pretzel sticks (short ones) I was about to go over my calories, so I went up and down the stairs for 3 mins and logged the exercise to stay under my day! Oh what we will do!0 -

I knew you would appreciate the face! Haha!
Aeropostale isn't as pricey as some of the other stuff they like. I can get tshirts for $5, I only shop the clearnace racks, much to their dismay. I refuse to pay full price for any of it because if they wait a month, it WILL be on sale or clearance.
Yeah, don't you love how we are soooo clueless? We know nothing. And YES, I do delight in torturing them. It's my hobby.0 -
Great job Black team. Keep up the excellent work!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!0

Hey sweetie!
I am drinking plenty of water...as all my trips to the lil girls room will verify...:laugh:
The ankle is doing extremely well :drinker: Yesterday was the first time I did squarts since the break...was able to do 65 lbs :drinker: I was really hesitant doing them again with the weight being put on the leg/ankle...but it felt good!!! :drinker:
Are you training with Susan again....or someone else???
