    55tolose-
    OMG, I am so sorry to hear this! My heart is with you and your family. So sad when they are so young.

    Bru-
    Congrats!!! YAY 'ONE' derland!


    My weigh in:

    Nov 1st..............150.6
    Nov 5th..............149.6


    Just a few days ago I was up to 153 but I think that was just a fluke. After one week of eating better and slowly getting back into moving more I am already feeling more like myself. I read that a few of you are doing C25K, which I started but after week two I hurt my knee because I was not taking the rest days, well I am still not 100% better but I think after I see my Dr I will do the program again. I also need to start doing my workout DVD's at home again, I will try to fit that in this weekend.

    Hope everyone has a healthy day!

    55tolose- I'm so sorry for your loss. Its so sad to hear anything tragic like that. Sending many prayers to you and your family.

    Bru- You KNOW I'm loving your ONEderland achievement! :drinker: I'm STILL doing the happy dance for you!

    Jenn - Regarding the C25K. I completed it 4 weeks ago. I also had some knee problems when I first started doing it back in June. I took a few weeks off then got back at it. I did do weeks 1-3 at least twice each. So take your time & don't over-do it. You will complete it. I'm now trying to run at least 3 miles 2-3 times per week so that I can keep my running going. I'm enjoying running. Yes I'm enjoying running. I'll say it again....I'm enjoying running! :laugh: I'm not looking forward to the winter setting in however as I like running outdoors. When I'm on my treadmill, I just get off. When I'm running the track at the gym, I just stop. When I'm running outdoors....I still have to run back home! :laugh: Hopefully I can make it thru the winter!

    Shelli - Great weigh in this week! That's awesome! :bigsmile:

    On another note....I have been eating CRAP this week. CRAP I SAY! :blushing: Between the Halloween candy & my neice's birthday cake, and pizza, just WOW! What the heck am I thinking? Well anyway....apparently it didn't matter. Yesterday I did my 3 mile run, however I was well over 600 calories for the day....however the scale gave me a "GOOD JOB" this morning. I lost another .8 lbs this week which has now put me right back to my starting weight pre-cruise! SO....now I'm back to "losing" again! I finally lost the 8.5 lbs I gained on my cruise! :bigsmile: :blushing: :bigsmile: YAY!
