    Don't feel bad Rene I wasn't that good this weekend either. I've been really strict with my eating for the past 4 weeks and since we had a sitter and went out on Friday I decided to splurge. I didn't go way overboard and make myself sick, so that's good. But it's really easy to get lazy with our eating over the weekend. Sounds like you've got a lot of exercise to undo any damage possibly done so good job! I hit the gym this morning myself. I did some strength training and then a half hour on the elliptical. Just keep at it!

    Thanks...I am finished with the exercise for the day...I feel much better now then I did yesterday! I have been running now for 11 weeks. I can't wait until my body produces the lower numbers though. It's slow going...

    I'm in 141 by May 1st. I'm 151 now. That may be a little hard, but if I exercise at least 4 days a week and I don't make it, I'll be satisfied if I'm under 145.

    :ohwell: Not sure what I do wrong but can't get the Quote to come up:sad: any way I gained .4 lbs over the weekend. I went over my calories yesterday because I had a Sonic burger and tatertots with a sprite. We were out at the ranch. I went horseback riding and brushed Dee after riding. That was about all the exersise I got yesterday. :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: ::flowerforyou: :flowerforyou:

    I did pretty good this weekend! :smile: I worked out on Friday - a couple DVDs since the weather was gloomy and rainy. Then Saturday, my body was just exhausted so I took the day off from intentional exercise (I still did things around the house like moving TVs and hanging pictures) . Sunday I went to the gym and did 30 minutes on the elliptical and 20 minutes of some strength training moves. Then I went to the barn and trimmed my horses feet (probably took me an hour or so). I really worked on them. Farriers have to be super strong, I tell you. My back and arms are sore today from my work yesterday. :tongue:

    Anyway, I may go for a run today if the weather clears up. It probably wont though, so I may go to the gym later and use the elliptical and then do some strength training if my muscles feel up to it.

    How do you want us to post our Monday weigh-ins? Should we start a list to copy, paste and add to? Anyway, I'm 143.6 this morning (was 143.8 when we started this last Wednesday).

    Good Morning girls :flowerforyou:

    My weigh - in for this Monday morn 157.

    Its only a .05 lb but I am surprised I did not gain. No formal w/o this week end, just did yard work Sat and grocery shopping/ house work Sun.

    I am READY to kick it into gear this week... with the w/o and the unwanted chore of the counting calories. :frown: Its the only way its going to work.

    How about some weekly mini challenges...?

    Good morning ladies! Since I took a little bit of a break from stringent eating this weekend I'll keep my weight from Wednesday and use as this weeks weight - 176! Then when I weigh in this Wednesday I'll post it on Monday. I got back on my program yesterday though - good eating and a good workout! Now it's time to get some work done....
