    Hey afternoon everyone!

    got my workout in today. 30 minutes on the treadmill and 5 minutes of squats! yeah thanks Andrew my thighs already hurt and now I can barely sit down with out srying! I also did a 5 minute cool down. I burned 600 calories.

    I started another weight loss challenge in RL. not real sure if I will win but I sure will be in good shape!!!! I have less then 10 weeks until I go back up to NY for the weekend and I would love to be maybe out of the 160's I am up 2 pounds from sunday but MN came to give me a gift yesterday so hopefully it will be down by next sunday. In 3 days I have burned 2600 calories I am well on my way to kicking my own *kitten*!:laugh: :laugh: :laugh: I figured I would workout 6 days a week until the weight loss challenge is over and maybe I could get to that weight I wanted. 3 days at 1.5 hours and 3 days at half hour.

    Have a great day everyone!

    Hey.....Tamara, hang in! We're here for you when you need to cry on a shoulder or 20.

    Got my squats in....averaged about 29 per minute....loved 'em....go figure.

    Kids were wondering what I was doing in the middle of the kitchen....but I figured the kitchen timer was the easiest.

    Staying rather productive today....gotta scoot!

    Later...

    Oh Im so glad to be able to log in now! This morning was horrible. Took me forever just to say Im having trouble logging in:grumble:

    Sounds like everyone have a decent week. Not me...I guess I cant complain to much though. My weight stayed exactly the same as last week but I got a call from Mother Nature yesterday as well...ok I forgot who said they did too:blushing:

    Had a great workout this morning. I havent done my squats yet, but I will. I have "issues" with squats from when I was 335 lbs and couldnt do them because of my knees. Cant use that one anymore so I will do them tonight.

    Hang in there Tamara:flowerforyou:

    Oh! And a woot-out to all those who rocked those squats already today!!:drinker: :drinker:

    Hey! My butt hurts:sad:

    Odd as it seems, my back was feeling it, too-- I made sure to reach way out in front of me on the way down, and pull in tight as I rose-- I felt it everywhere-- come on baby, make it hurt so good!

    Tamara - The day that my Dad died, a good friend of mine (who had also lost his Dad a few years back) emailed me this message. It may be of little comfort now but I ofter think of it and find it to be true:

    Over time there will be less grief and more gratitude for the privilege of having a great Dad in the first place

    Continued prayers are with you.

    Way to go team! Great job on the loss this week!

    Down 1 pound this week, sorry Andrew I got busy at work and didn't get a chance to email earlier. :ohwell:

    Did 6 minutes of squats because I lost track of the time, my thighs feel tingly. I lost track of the total number, but I did 31 in the first minute. I skipped my workout today as I had to run to Fed Ex to send out my husband's guitar and then I took advantage of being alone to do a little bit of shopping for myself. That never happens!

    Tamara-Thinking of you and your family right now. I'm so sorry you are going through this.

    Leslie-I hope the dr's figure out what's going on with your daughter. :flowerforyou:

    BryannaKay-Congrats on the weight loss this week!

    Off to grade some more papers, if I don't stay up on them I'll be buried under :frown:

    Evening team...Just got back from a late evening workout. I didn't feel like going but I'm glad I did. I did 35 minutes of C25K and the Nautilus machines (and 5 minutes of squats). Not sure how many but definitely enough to feel it tomorrow. Someone came in the aerobics room and started talking to me and I got sidetracked. Now for a shower and hopefully early bedtime. Congrats to you losers this week! G'night.

    thanks everyone for your continued prayer, I heard if tomorrow never comes by garth brooks this evening and cried the whole song so I guess everytime I hear this song I will cry. My dad was an amazing person..I dont have to go back to work until I am ready....

    I have a blessing also, dad always told us he would never go to church, we found out yesterday that not only did he start going to church about a year and a half ago, but that he also taught a sunday school class at church about going home, how ironic??? My dad looked so peacful when I identified his body. I had my amazing husband by myside the whole time he is fabulous.

    My dad will never be forgotten and I will also laugh about the things we did with us kids. One thing I can always remember dad always always always had chocolate chips in the freezer and I would alwyas grab me a handful and then he would go to make something and he would say "Tami, ( thats what my family calls me) where are my chocolate chips??:" I said," I dont know what your talking about,knowing that I ate the whole bag!!"""

    Just know I have a bag og mini chcocolate chips and when I need to think about my dad or just have a talk with him, I will go get my one tablespoon of chocolate chips and count my calories and think about him, that my tribute to him!!

    Well everyone as I said on facebook back on the wagon full force tomorrow, gotta get this weight off!!!
