    Good morning everyone! My scale doesn't do decimal points, and that's good enough for me. I'm off to do my morning workout now.

    Good morning beautiful pals... I was in awe of what I seen on the scale so I got off and back on at least 9 times and it said pretty much the same each time. I still have my doubt about the number.

    No change this week, but considering that I have been on business travel, I'm OK with it.

    Going in the wrong direction!!! I have got to get back to business. Timing is bad right now, as I am off to the tropics for my 10 yr anniversary for a few days. But, I can't let this continue.

    sorry wasn't able to get on sooner. I challenge that everyone does 2 minute of skipping or dance to at least three fast songs in a row every day and increase it if you can.

    It feels so great to be a part of such an amazing group of people...big hugs to every one.

    Confession time. I have not danced yet BUT I will.

    Denise's plan of attack for this week:

    1. Per-log all meals & snacks at least the day before.
    2. Mon - lunchtime walk 45 mins
    3. Tues - lunchtime run 30 mins
    4. Wed - rest day plus start prepping thanksgiving sides & pies
    5. Thurs - 5k run on my own in am & at lighter breakfast & lunch so I can enjoy shrimp cocktail and cheeseball and crackers while hanging with family. Regular thanksgiving dinner (just little of everything plus turkey). Enjoy 1/2 slice of tollhouse, pumpkin & apple pies with toppings.
    6. Fri - YMCA for workout (class maybe?)
    7. Sat - YMCA for workout - elliptical 4-5 miles
    8. Sun - 4.6 mile run with Kara. Push to improve under 60 mins (67 1st wk, 60 2nd wk)
    9. At least 85 oz water ea day even when I'm not at work.
