Black Team Challenge Week #3!!!

I had a really off day yesterday. It started out great, had a good workout at the gym, came home started doing some laundry and housework...was feeling pretty good. I got a call around noon from my best friend that just moved away to Kansas in November. It didnt go well. We ended up into a huge argument and my day just went to he**. Shes been my very best friend for years and my rock. I feel horrible about it and spent the rest of the day (and up and down throughout the night) crying. I only ate 382 calories for the whole day yesterday and I know that is a big no-no.

Anyway, just trying to make it through the day today and focus on what I need to do for me. Sorry guys. I dont mean to be a downer today.

Roni- Was your bff living much closer to you before? I'm so sorry to hear about your woes. I'm with Lori, you guys will make amends...that's what bffs do. Relationships do change though when distance comes between...but not necessarily for the worse just different. Having so many firends in the military all over the country(as I am sure Lori could attest to as well) you are very close to them when they're near but as your lives change....so do the relationships...but when you see them again...it's like you just saw them yesterday! Stay focused. Your support to all of us is priceless:flowerforyou:

Good morning everyone feeling pretty amazing this morning fixin to take my princess to school then come home and clean and suprise her at lunch at 10:10 am what craziness is that. Today is her 100th day of school celebration..hope I am good.

Yesterday had my tooth pulled up until like 3 pm I only comsumed 200 calories so needless to I was starving, I told husband hey lets go to pizza buffet for lunch/dinner and I bought oreos at walmart....dangerour combination. So I did it I ate the pizza and half the package of oreos, my amazing son and I hit the gym after pizza buffet and I managed to lose 6 oz, I will take that. Yesterday I did 11 miles on the bike and 4.5 miles on the machine.

Hit the gym already this morning for 468 calories burned. I feel pretty fabulous..

Hope ya'll have a great day!!!

Oreos are my downfall. I cannot have them in the house!

:frown: Going to Doc today, but I already know it is not strep because it is moving into my chest. Argh...I hate being sick. Especially when I was infected by someone who knew they were sick, but invited me to hang out with them anyway.

I so feel like crud.

I hope you feel better Jeanne:flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: No squats for you today!

Thanks for the encouragement. It's so hard to get back in the saddle. Took baby boy to doc this am and he does have an ear infection. He's had 2 surgeries for his ears and is still getting ear infections. Will it ever end:sad:

Seriously, I need to refocus badly. Have not been eating right and no exercise for 5 days:noway:

Thanks again for the advice I need all the help I can get:embarassed:

Jan - I remember all those ear infections when the kids were babies like it was yesterday! You feel so helpless that they are in such pain. My ds now 12 had two sets of tubes and still got the ear infections and the doc would say....Spring is almost here!

I hope everyone is feeling better soon....and don't foget to take care of yourself

Hi Everyone, New to this . I work on a elliptical for now i just had surgery I have 6 wks of recovery and I am not sure if sqats would be a great idea right now. I do have faith in all so lets get to our goals and stay health. I believe with all the support I am reading it is a possitive in the right direction.

Soccer games tonight. Eating a quick bowl of cereal now, even though I'm not really hungry. Won't be home for at least 4 hours and I refuse to eat consession stand crud. Thursday will be a repeat. Saturday is a tournament and it looks like we'll be there all day long. Need to plan for that one so I don't get stuck.

Beth and Batman- can't wait to see your news clip!

Marla64

hey everyone--

Pardon the post and run again tonight-- crazy day today. Rebekah had a basketball game-- or should I say "rugby match--" freaking refs. :noway: They didn't call any fouls-- we were visitors, so naturally the home team were hacking away like crazy, and bumping-- it was ridiculous.

Batman and Beth-- this is just way too cool, my friends--

Tammy-- hi back!

Roni-- scripture says, "Faithful are the wounds of a friend." It will work out, eventually--

Lori-- way to be proactive on the concession stand food.

Need to scoot for now-- Jeannie, prayers for your boo-boo throat.

Shuntae, Sam, Donna, Tanya, Sara, Sara, Audrey, Leslie, Jan et. al. -- later, my peeps!

1200 calories on the nose today, pre-exercise-- not too bad.

Later!

ksproston

Jeannie - How are you feeling?

Marla - I hated playing in those games.

Roni - (((Roni))) Fights with our bff's are the worst. It'll be better soon.

Watching BL. Adjusted my diary. Feeling really good about the scale tomorrow. Hope I still feel that way in the morning. Finishing some water.

Nite!

Marla64

not sure what my scale shall behold tomorrow-- as of this morning, I was the same as last weigh-in, which is 2 pounds up from mid-week-- but, you know, whatever.

I'm in a bad place these days-- hangin' in-- but really just down about what life is dealing. Can't rag here too much-- so much is personal and private-- but, real quickly-- prayer request-- if you could all please pray for employment for the hubs. I never, ever, ever ask for prayer for such things-- believing that my sovereign God knows all I need, so why bother asking-- but, truth be told, I'm beyond nutty desperate about it. So, I figured, what the heck-- couldn't hurt, right?

That is all-- need to shut it and scoot--

Later, my peeps-- boring typing awaits.

Done. Hugs my friend. I can't even imagine the stress and worry all that must bring. As much as deployments stink, I thank my lucky stars often that the military is job stability, benefits that are incredibly good and pay that isn't going to make us rich, but we can certainly live well off of. Truly, I am thankful.

We just got the schedule for our soccer tournament on Saturday. Oh boy. 7 games between DS and DD. 45 minutes from our house. 9:00, 11:00, 12:00, 1:00, 3:00, 4:00, 6:00. It's making me tired just thinking of it. Then we have our other 2 DS's, one of which has a birthday party that I don't know how he's getting to and neither of which are going to be happy spending 10 hours at the soccer field.

We may need to divide and conquer to get through this one. I like to be at everything and I don't like to miss, but I think this is an exception.
