    Keep pushing it Mayra--You can do it! I prefer the weight lifting to recovery week too. There is something satisfying about lifting I guess. It sounds like you could use some recovery though. You are pushing it to the max! I have been not paying attention to what I have been doing the last few days, but my plan is to start again today. It is our official start to summer this week. Hopefully my kids will get along!

    If you have not sent me your weight--do it now! :bigsmile:

    Have a great day!

    Well, I am back to the real world. Before I forget to say it: Welcome to all of the newbies, it is great to have you, and I hope to get to know you soon! Mayra - good luck on the interview. I hope that you find a great job very soon. Do you have daycare lined up for your little one? And on the subject of wasting food: one of the hardest things for me to learn was NOT to eat the leftover food on my grandsons' plates in order to avoid throwing it out. I decided that in terms of my health, it was really cheaper to toss it than for me to eat it and have more dr. bills due to obesity. It now goes straight in the trash can.

    I am back from my camping trip. We had a great anniversary (thank you all for the well wishes). Spending time alone with hubby just relaxing in our lawn chairs was pretty awesome. I tried several new grilling recipes, and ate well all week. Amazingly enough, I didn't even gain from eating the two slices of pan pizza that I had last night when I was too tired to cook when arriving home. Some of my kids made it for the weekend, and I had a wonderful time playing with the five little ones. (two five year olds, a four year old, one almost 3, and one 2).
    Today I have to get really busy as my daughter and I are having a "music camp" for children at church every day for the rest of the week. Looks like we have 14 registered, so I have got to get it organized, and get some music planned. This is realy my first day of being home since school was out and I don't have to go to work, so I am having a little trouble getting myself moving. Have a great Monday all, and here's to smart choices!

    Hey blue team - Hope everyone had a great weekend.

    Well, Deb - start again today - Get back on track because you know I"ll ask you later in the week :laugh:

    Well I got my last 6kms in, so I in finished 30 kms walk/jog in a week. If someone told me that last year I would do this, I would have laughed at them.
    No excuses today!!! After work I'm going to start P90x again - Round 2. Been feeling good eating 50% protein, and also doing some pushups every day or every other day. Last night I picked up some dumbells and did a set of 20, felt great.

    Peter--keep me honest! I did chest shoulders and triceps today along with a 8 min run on the treadmill. I kept telling myself to not be a *****--in true Chrissy form! I also did as much as I could of ab ripper x, boy that kills me. I am getting better though. I am going to get at least 3 vegies today. I promise!

    My arms are shaking--that must mean I did good today!:wink: Keep up the great work everyone!

    Hey all! Sorry I haven't been around. I had to move and can't afford to get internet just yet. Not to mention the batteries in my scale died. Haha! Will be back and updating as soon as I can.

    debnu- weight is the same for me this week.

    I'm on week 8 of P90x and it's recovery week. Today I only did about 60 minutes of walking.

    What a week! I attended my Great-Aunt's funeral yesterday. They seem to take up the entire day. My house is a mess. I have not been eating well. I am tired and don't want to exercise but yet know that if I do I will feel better. I am feeling rather messed up!

    I can do this though. One step at a time! I am going to watch Jillians show while cleaning today. Hopefully it will help my motivation. I am not sure if I like it yet or not, however.

    Take care everyone. I will get the chart out soon...:flowerforyou:
