    Hello Beautiful Sharkettes!

    I'm definitely getting booted this week. I am so sorry. I have just been coming to terms with the new changes in my life and my fitness goals haven't quite caught up yet. I'm definitely keeping up on my fitness goals and really like the stretching goal that Sheri's included because think it's something I need to do.

    I can add my calories if needed because I have been doing some minor exercise but haven't been doing the reps or anything else!

    I would love to stay in and support you all even if I am booted because I love these challenges and think the sharks are the very best!

    Chomp! Chomp! Chomp!!

    I'll check it out! I started a blog my self just to give my self something to do I have only got one post up yet trying to find the inspiration for the next post!

    http://momonamission42.blogspot.com/

    And I do think that I will spend 20 mins a day researching HEALTHY Recipes and techniques to use and utilize in my family. and for me and my hubby we are actively going to ask one another before we buy or binge on something is that something you really want to do and we will keep each other accountable for not going through drive thrus when on outings. I hope that helps clarify the goals better. :)

    SPREADSHEET UPDATED TO HERE,

    ...... And tomorrow is weigh in day. You must submit your weigh-ins and any remaining workout stats by 1000 PST.

    I will set up a separate thread for the weigh in tomorrow and we will have a new thread to log all your stats and comments for next week too. Otherwise this thread will be really long and we will have to wade through lots of old posts to get to the current stuff to log. Hope you are all having a great week.

    Hello Beautiful Sharkettes!

    I'm definitely getting booted this week. I am so sorry. I have just been coming to terms with the new changes in my life and my fitness goals haven't quite caught up yet.

    I say you should post whatever you have done, so we can cheer you on anyway! As Mary said, there are no eliminations this week, but post what little exercise you have done anyway. It all counts towards team points too :wink:

    Changes take some adapting to, so don't be too hard on yourself. I know you'll get your new fitness goals sorted soon. And in the meantime, I for one would like to give you a big "Yeah! Go girl!" for whatever you managed to get in this week. :flowerforyou:

    Oh and PLEASE would you all go and look at the chart and check we have your information entered correctly. I know Mary and Pam would never make a mistake :heart: but it is very possible if I entered it :happy: We still have time to change anything we have got wrong, so please let us know.

    If you need the link again, here it is:

    Don't worry Kai85 you have got some major changes going on and will be going on over the next year! LoL I am having to come to terms with my changing body this week I am realizing I have to admit i"m pregnant and rest a wee bit more often than I would like! But I am excited to at least stay in for points to help out.

    Yoga yesterday instead of relaxing me and making me feel better today I am more sore than ever! Any one have any ideas or suggestions? I flooded ye ol' temple with water yesterday (and every day) but I'm at a loss I didn't work out hard yesterday and it's worse than if I had! lol Was hoping to get an elliptical work out in today but I am not seeing that happen with the current way I feel lol

    :yawn:

    Well, here's my pathetic Thursday...(two excuses - my hurt Achilles and I spent the day with my daughter and grandson)

    I've decided to require myself to devote time to music and art...I'm thinking 30 minutes/day, 5 days/week for piano (maybe theory too) OR painting (maybe drawing too.) No idea how that timing will work, but I had to start somewhere...

    Now, who would like to be nervous with me about tomorrow's weigh-in???:noway:
