    Got up sore from arthritis today, but have managed to get in grocery shopping, and several hours of working out getting the house ready for a dinner party. I'm at 40 oz. of water - better go drink some more!

    Good job Kathy, Jessica and Mary! Hooooo hooooooooooo! :bigsmile: I did SI6/RIU this morning and Shred II this afternoon. I have really tried to hit the water hard and limit my salty items. Order a grilled chicken salad at lunch...hold the croutons! Asked for fat free dressing. Having a light supper of fish, broccoli and 1/2 baked potato. Have plenty of left over cals so I may have a glass of wine later. :drinker:

    All in all, I can call it a Skinny Saturday! I am so pleased that my workouts are getting easier. Hey, does that mean I am getting in shape? Cooooooooooooool! :wink:

    How did they day go for the rest of you? :flowerforyou:

    AWESOME job Fab! I think you are!!! You gotta.... be doing a RIU & Shred!:wink:

    Girls..... Well my stats so far are not so glamourous! 91.9 oz & 6 hrs in the yard.. and pulled out the old pedometer, forgot how much fun it is, but I have 14909 steps so far. My goal was 15 K :smile: Gonna throw in a stationary bike ride after dinner!

    Hope everyone has had a SUPER Skinny Sat! :flowerforyou:

    So far, so good! Added a bit of running and weights to my routine today and doubled my water intake... just finished supper, so now it's down to resisting the temptation to eat... :)

    Skinny Saturday was once again successful for me too! I did two workouts and kept my calories under my limit, and drank extra water. I feel great! Great way to start the weekend!

    It's been stressful since I last posted--lots of drama with both my daughters. I don't know--they have never gotten along but it was pretty bad today. It all seems to have blown over and it is more peaceful now. Sure hope it lasts!

    I did get a lot more water in but I haven't eaten yet. It's starting to get late but supper isn't finished yet (got a late start on it). I do have it logged--don't even know, though, if I feel much like eating!

    Did good today on calories my hubby brought me out to dinner Red Lospter. And before I order anything I looked up the calorie so I am still under my calories. Didn't do good on my water and only got one workout in but went shoping at the mall so is that a workout? lol

    I consider today a success, because I cooked a big dinner for company, and still stayed under my calories! Woo hoo!

    Happy Mother's Day to all!

    Hang in there Kathy...this too shall pass. I grew up with sisters and there was always alot of drama. We are now best friends! Happy Mothers Day. You are a devoted mom and just think...what would those two drama queens be without you! Take care of yourself so you can take care of others! :drinker:

    Going to Red Lob and staying under cals is worth praise! Yes, shopping can be counted as an exercise! Especially if you bought yourself something for Mothers Day! Good job on staying under cals and planning before you went out to eat! Happy Mothers Day dear one!:heart:

    Good idea pulling out the pedometer! I remember being encouraged to get 10,000 steps in a day in a Heart Smart class I took once. Way to go hopping on the bike after a busy day Cal!

    Thanks for the challenge! It motivated me to garden for 2 hours (hauling mulch bags around) and I stayed under my calories for the day. Weekends are tough, no schedule and lots more temptations.
    Great idea about the pedometer; I found mine & will be using it again!

    I MADE IT!! Thanks for this challenge..it helped me to be AWARE of everything and I did good at staying under calories, went to the gym when I usually dont go on Saturdays and I drank lots of water, which I usually screw up with on the weekends. So thanks!

    So I ran my 5k yesterday! Finished it in 34 minutes at an average pace of 11:08!!! AND I ran the whole thing...did I mention I was not a runner before this? Woohoo! All of my training paid off!

    I only went 100 calories over my limit yesterday, which is a big deal for me on the weekends so I am majorly excited!

    Today is Mother's Day and I've decided that regardless of the holiday, I am going to stick with my meal plan. No going outside of my limits today! My daughter and I are going to go for a mother/daughter run this afternoon too. Hooray!

    Sorry I wasn't here ladies pulled the dreaded double shift. Got a good workout at the all day job. Mostly lifting. Drank plenty was well within my calories. Have to do the same next week so will have to plan in advance now that I know!

    You all did so well, congratz to all! Alice

    I am a day late I thought it was; a Sunday challenge I stayed within my calories and I lost 2 lbs. Today is mothers day and I am having a hard time. I want junk food.
