Just keep coming here, something will click and you'll be on your way again!! Hang on and don't give up!!

    I am going to get 2 swims in today!:bigsmile: It feels so good to swim I wish I could swim more frequently. It is the only exercise that I can do without getting too hot. I hope everyone had a get Valentine's Day! I have my ob appointment on Thursday. I have to have a glucose screening when I go. I am a little nervous about it. Also, on Thursday we get to pick up Ody's new mouth guard. I hope it works well and he can't figure out how to pop it off. I love my son very much but get very annoyed at the teeth grinding. Getting ready to leave for my 2nd swim. Check back later. Hope everyone has a great day!:smile:

    Good Afternoon Pepper's,
    Well good so far staying with in calories. My aunt is visiting this week so I dont expect to loose anything, but we shall see on Friday. Tomorrow I am doing the 30 shred at 5AM, it is really hard so early but that is when I can fit it in. I work my regular job M-F and starting on sunday I will be doing the second job 7 days, along with regular. Hope I can keep up the exercise through, I dont want to stop and get as sore as I was the first time.

    Well back to work, have a great day :bigsmile:

    Hey everyone. I did better today than last week. Wanted to go to Curves but son's basketball game was a priority. His team is now 10-1.

    I wasn't able to do lunch walk - it was snowing - but I was able to do a 1.5 run. Did do 25 push-ups (mens style) and 40 sit-ups.

    Off to make breakfast/lunch for work.

    Wishing everyone a good Wednesday.

    dang, no BL tonite. been watching a little of the Olympics...WOW, their strength and endurance is amazing. I can't imagine having to train years and years for maybe one competition. to have their level of fitness is kinda, sorta, inspiring. I wish working out consistently was just something I looked forward to every day, or just regularly. I know it's necessary, but doing it is a whole different battle......

    anyway, an ok day here. didn't go as planned with the food or exercise, but trying to stay positive here and just look forward to tomorrow and do my best.

    Angie ~ glad you are getting your swims in...I know how much that means to you and how good it makes you feel! good way for you to get in some activity and release any stress. I hope all goes well for Ody's new guard. My youngest son does that too, it is annoying sometimes! I'm sure your glucose will be good....you have done so well during your pregnancy! I'm getting excited for your big day!!

    Barb ~ Congrats on son's bb season! that is really good! nice job on your exercise as well. I can't even do one regular push up. I have tried and tried, even had my boyz help me. I just think it is impossible for my body to ever do one. We have not really had any snow for a few days....but it has been blowing, drifting and sticking to the blacktops. The calendar says Spring will be here in about a month!! ?? oh boy!!

    Cindy ~ Enjoy visit from Aunt. You are so busy and keeping up with the exercise routine!! So proud of you!! Feeling some of your energy and it is motivating me!! I agree, don't stop.....the pain is a real bummer! I want to work towards that desire of actually looking forward to a good workout! A ways to go yet.

    Just reading what everyone is doing for movement has got me a little pumped here, thanks ladies! :flowerforyou:

    Have a nice evenin' everyone!

    Itty- Great news about your cast coming off!!:bigsmile: Remember to ease back into an exercise routine when you are ready. You don't want to over work your foot. Congrats on the weight lose!!:flowerforyou:

    Sindy - I can't imagine signing up my baby for college classes. Hope all goes well and he gets the classes he wants.:smile:

    Lynette - Glad you are feeling better. For Wisconsin, the weather hasn't been that bad here but I sure would love some 60's. Does it come with sunshine?:smile:

    BAI- Congrats on your son's bb game. What a great season his team is having.!:happy: I don't think I could do a push to save my life and probably not even a sit-up right now. I can barely walk 1.5 miles let alone run especially right now. Since I became pregnant I get bloated when I walk a lot. Keep up the good work.:smile:

    Kelly - Keep your chin up.:happy: Today is a new day. I appreciate all of your encouragement and your work as leader of our group.:flowerforyou: I wish I could be as motivating as you are. I look forward to reading all the encouragement you share with others. Just take one day at a time.

    I hope the rest of you are having a great day!:smile:

    Good Afternoon Pepper's,

    Yeah Megan, cast is off and lost 4 pounds that is great! :drinker:

    It was hard when he graduated in June 2009, then first real job (would not let him work while in High School) and now college. :sad: Dont care still my baby and always will be. :laugh: He had to take what they had available for classes, there was a mix up and his high school did not send his info to the college in time :mad: and now I had to pay for the classes because we missed the dead line for financial aid and I was not letting him wait until September to start. He waited too long already.

    Not many logging in lately, Hope everyone is well. :flowerforyou:

    Well back too work, have a great day :bigsmile:

    Mornin SHGP's!

    I was dinkin' around with some of the tools on here last nite, so just wanted to say NO I have not lost 8 or so lbs....sorry for the misunderstanding...need to get that changed back.....altho that would be nice. Not sure I have lost any this week, will know tomorrow. I did not 'check in' last Fri, so therefore, my ticker has not changed....still at the 27 lbs lost, and in reality more like 18.... and I am just gonna leave it there in hopes for motivation for me to get going again. Something has to give here soon....hangin on...

    Lynette ~ what a good idea!! Well, this am I gettin my teeth cleaned and then on to the city for some groceries. Does lifting everything in and out of the cart count, and then in and out of the car, and then into the house and puttin away??! :bigsmile: Will do day 2 of c25k wk 1. and some wt lifting. You look like you are gonna have a good one at the gym, YAY for you!

    take care, hope the rest of you are doing good, thinkin of you all! will try to check in later. make today count folks.

    Good Afternoon Pepper's,
    Considering aunt flo :laugh: is in town this week. I may not log my weigh in. Sometimes it is just water weight so I dont want to adjust my pounds for a week. Would be nice if I show a loss this week but I always gain at least 3-5 pounds in water weight.

    Well I did a little walk on lunch only 10 mins. but I will do some weights tonight. Got to get back to work. Have a great day :bigsmile:
