    The library is a good idea. I always owe them fines....I don't know why I can't ever get them back on time.

    Hope every is having a great weekend. I'm getting my daughter's picture taken in the morning by my friend, then football in the afternoon. Praying my boys don't get hurt!!!

    Hey girls.. it has been a while since I checked in here! Thank you for all the support and checking on me!

    Life has been absolutely crazy! From moving a business to my home, new b cards, updating listings, mailers, etc to a death in the family, school starting, end of the summer activities, turning 40, wedding anniversary, to legal issues with the old landlord, I have been BUSY!

    Miraculously I have still manged to loose some weight! I guess I have managed to change some bad habits into good habits!

    In the midst of moving my business to my home we ended up moving 5 different rooms in the house! 1 of them being the workout room! I have yet to use it and really need to get downstairs and get my rear in gear!

    My new goal is to loose 25 lbs by the 1st of the year! I think I can accomplish this with some hard work and perseverance.

    Well, I need to get going for the day and MGD (make good decisions)

    How is everyone doing this week? I stepped on the scale this morning and was up 1 lb and have to weigh tomorrow for the Thanksgiving Challenge. I'm not sure I'm going to like weighing twice a week. I might not weigh tomorrow and just add my weight in on Friday (my normal weigh date). I don't want to get obsessed with the scale.

    I am reading about the Couch to 5K and 30 day shred. Can someone tell me what each of those are? I noted some people are doing one MWF and the other T/Th. Please help me learn what those are. I can assume on the couch to 5K but not so sure on the 30 day shred?
    Please advise.
    Thanks!!!

    Jillian Michaels 30 day shred is a great workout DVD - I believe its $9 at Walmart.

    C25K is the couch to 5K running program found here: http://www.coolrunning.com/engine/2/2_3/181.shtml

    YES I am, Tina! However I really felt like I've been slacking the past few weeks since I've been making time for CJ.... :love:

    However, he is working all weekend, so its all about ME now! He did just tell me a few mins ago on the phone that he's going to try to get the next few weekends off before I leave for my cruise... :bigsmile: So I gotta get my butt moving all week long! :laugh:

    I hope so, Tina! I've been working on C25K - I started week 7 today - running 25 min straight each time now! :bigsmile: I am also trying to get back into letting Jillian kick my *kitten*! I just got done doing the shred - however the bulldog is here & every time I had to get down on the floor for abs or push ups he thought it was play time and was either walking under me or crawling over my face! LOL:laugh: He kept bringing me his ball too! Apparently it was play time for bully, not workout time for Kelly! :laugh:

    Anyway - I'm trying to do some extra today because CJ is off patrol at 6pm so I'm headed to his place with pizza! And I'm going to have more than just a few pieces! :tongue: Should be a nice relaxing night for him since he's been on duty since 6pm last night. Poor guy! :ohwell:

    OK - here's this weeks BMK challenge for those of you that want to participate: We're going back to some from before, but increasing them a bit! 50 jumping jacks per day for 5 days - 250 total for the week. 20 pushups per day for 5 days - 100 total for the week. 1 minute plank per day for 5 days! I have no clue what to do for food this week....so I'm just gonna say anything goes! Pick your own food challenge for the week - it can be a new one, or anything we've done before! Remember - these are just to give you an extra push for the week, so have fun!
