    my week so far is gloomy chaotic. It's drizzly, grey here in Raleigh, NC today. My oldest 2 boys caught a case of the Monday angries. I had to come back downstairs three times, from looking for missing socks, to stop the shouting, hitting/scratching matches. Then, an unsuccesful hunt for missing water bottle. To top it off, traffic was bumper to bumper, w/ about 3 narrowly missed collisions to my bumper. b/c of the traffic, I was not able to stop to get my morning shake. barely made it into work on time. I am hoping for a better rest of the day and rest of week.

    *thanks for letting me vent*

    Starting weight 185 I think. I am going to try and weigh in tomorrow morning if I can make it to the gym.

    I did my first Crossfit WOD today and I am sore beyond belief. I went for a long bike ride after too which didn't help. My quads are on fire and I can barely move. I knwo tomorrow I have to get something in to help with the soreness. Hopefully by Wednesday or Thursday I can move normally again. Now, I am laying in bed and moaning everytime I go down the stairs to get food or water. Gonna go for a walk a little later and hope that helps.

    Tabby hope the day has gotten a little better since this morning.

    Hope you're feeling better Charlie, but good for you for letting your body rest. I hate when I get sick or injured along the journey because you feel so helpless!

    So far so good this week, I need to get back into logging, I haven't done it in some time, so I have not been prepping foods as exactly as I used to. SO while I munch on left over sweet potatoes for lunch, I'm thinking of things to prep dinner and pay attention to calories tonight!

    Hi Everyone! Happy Thursday! I will be traveling through the weekend so I'm not sure how much i will get to login, I'm taking my computer but not sure if there will be internet where we are staying.

    I'm taking 2 students to the regional championships horse show (dressage) Since I've only got 2 I will have some down time - taking my running shoes!!!

    I have to remember - nothing tastes as good as skinny feels when i'm out to dinner!!!

    Hi Guys. My cold has finally gone so I'll be back on the exercise this evening. I have managed NOT to eat my own body weight in toast as I normally would when ill, so I'm hoping for a good weigh-in this week.

    Good luck with the healthy eating whilst you're away Laura!
