Awesome HSH!! I know em all cept for the last one, and I'm sure I can find a version on youtube in the morning LOL..

LETS ROCK IT MAD HATTERS!

thanks hairspray! gonna download them tonite. It's still 8/17 here on the west coast and use them tomorrow!

WOW ! that's a PERFECT hit parade - I'm going to add it to my ipod! thanks so much!

Love the tune list & actually many are on my Ipod as well. I did not get my walk in yesterday, just pulled the covers over my head when the alarm went off (I am usually up before the alarm) and instead of walking today about to head out on a bike ride along the river. Not sure, but think it will be about 9 miles round trip. Tomorrow my long run AM. I feel bad I missed you all yesterday. Have a good day & will catch up with everyone later.

Hi ho hatters..

LONG day; ended up with 3 hrs overtime plus an hour in traffic and on the way home had decided to blow off the walk because i was just exhausted; but when I landed I thought hmmmm.. all the Hatters are gonna be out there doing their walkies.. I can't not... so I ran down to the treadmill and managed to log 1.6 miles and hummed the tunes in my head!!! So IPOM for not blowing it off.. I had to come and eat because it was almost 7pm by then and I was starving; not enough food today because it was so busy..sigh.. something I def have to work on is NOT going without for long periods.. i had lots with me but not enough "finger food"...and too busy to prep the other stuff. anyway I had to run up to eat because I go to bed way early as I'm up at 4am.. and didn't wanna eat right before bed! So I'm not happy im way under my calories for the day; but between a rock and a hard place with bedtime so will do better tomorrow. Packed sandwiches so easy to eat on the run rather than a salad.

Also excited because my sister sent me a text saying she and a g/f met for brekkie then strolled around the neighbourhood.. and she ended up walking 5km!!! I was pretty excited and proud of her.. and she's down a few pounds too so happy campers are we!

Hope all the other Hatters had lovely walks.. mine wasn't scenic as it was the treadmill lol..

Better showre and hit the sack; only one more day then I'm off for a while again so will be able to really concentrate on the eating more often thru the day im gonna try.

TA huge congrats on the loss ... but will wait to do the happy feet dance til you do your official check in! (but inside i'm dancing for ya now!) glad yr getting the new specs

Did anybody miss me on our morning walk? I had to get some stuff done @ Church for our singing tonight. Then my husband wanted to go to Red Lobster for lunch. So i missed it today. But I like the playlists. I will have to get them downloaded tomorrow to get me thur the rest of the week.

Patrice - I don't have an IPOD either; i wrote down the songs and sang then ones I knew to myself as I went LOL..... HMMMM.. yeah thats a little scary even to me! I knew those were your feet I saw walking beside me lol.. well done!

Cheryl - COURSE we missed ya..!! CAn't wait til there's another chance for us all to hoof it together....

Slept like crud last night; tired little puppy heading into work this morning but got lots of days to sleep in coming up, so as my old boss used to say to any of the guys who whined about anything.. "suck it up, buttercup" ... (and yes.. it was a woman boss lol....) I'm much better prepared with easy to eat healthy food today (no prep required as that did me in yesterday - nowhere near enough calories cause I just didn't have time to put together the stuff I brought) so should be a better day food wise )

see you this afternoon Hatters, and have a great day!

Just a thought, maybe we should make are walks a sing along. Then when we get close to christmas go caroling. What do you all think? Lets take this on the road ladies. :laugh:

hey ladies - getting ready to go for a walk.... see you on the trail....

from home, past the middle school, make a right - to the bank (sorry - no samples - they're closed):grumble: make a right and go right past the pizza / sandwich shops....

Evening Hatters...

Glad to hear you enjoyed your walk cbm... and HSH congrats on the body pump class! I decided not to do a walk today; I only slept about 3 hrs last nite and ended up with more overtime so by the time I got home, I was exhasuted and hungry so no walkies today; but I'm fine with that decision; after yesterdays MH walk and my resistance training start I made my weekly exercise goal so a happy camper with the week... and even happier I have a week offf now LOL!

HSHl I know you wanted to wait til your offical weight in to claim the 4, but can we celebrate now?? I'm so happy for you, truly you must be thrilled!!! Big congrats on your hard work payin
I'm sorry... but I don't use any replacement meal type things so I'm no help with ideas.. I did try a few of those Belvita breakfast bars.. but honestly I just don't like the texture or taste... and even tho they're supposed to contain all the nutrients you need blah blah.. once I look at the ingredient list I;m done lol... I took a nutrion class thru work last year.. and they taught us how to read the food labels of course.. but they also talked about the important of reading the ingredients.. and as a guide said if anything has over 5 ingredients, don't eat it. (or if you're grandmother wouldnt recognize it as food, i.e. a pop tart .. don't eat it LOL).. they used a loaf of a bread made here (by Dempsters) that is touted on ads as 100% whole grain with flax or oatmeal or honey or whatever.. couple of different brands.. and I was buying it because i was under the IMPRESSION it was an excellent choice for bread based on eveyrthing I saw and read on the nutrition label... but they brot a loaf in and said k... this is DESSERT. I was like HUH?? so they turned past the label and said read the ingredients... a loaf of bread.. and it had FIVE LINES of ingredients..(and you know how long a loaf is.. and the ingredient list went right across the loaf and down to the next line.. and so on...and so on.. it had SO much hidden sugar in corn syrup and glucose, and tons of preservatives.. yet the label said high fibre, great source of whole grains blah blah... so for me, I'm trying really hard to eat more whole foods (of course I still buy some processed stuff.. but I try to limit it as much as possible, and I always read the ingredients list as well as the nutrional label now.. and reading it usually is enough to put me off with all the chemicals nad preservatives and coloring and that darn sugar... so I try to tstick to the five ingred rule.. which pretty much leaves steel cut oatmeal or eggs for brekkie! I do have a good recipe for a crustless type of quiche that you can fereze and cut like a pie and just nuke a piece for a good brekkie... or sometimes the night before I'll cook up an egg with some onion and peppers and spinach or something.. and take it to work along with a tortilla.. i put the egg in the wrap, nuke it for 20 seconds and its a good yummy and easy to eat brekkie... but that's about all i have idea wise.. maybe some of our other hatters can help you out with brekkies??

Hope everone is having a good evening; I'm gonna put my drops in and then hit the sack... nite nite hatters!!

Did my walk this am after church. It was quite nice to walk in 57 degree F weather after the past few weeks of high 70s to high 80s F. It was either the cooler weather or my fitness level is improving 'cause I burned 40-50 calories less than I have been averaging on the same walk for the past few weeks. It did seem easier and I was able to keep up a faster pace...
