    I feel like I'm jumping in the middle of your group, but what's it about. You guys seem really supportive of one another and it's made me curious :)

    We are a group of women who fall in the catergory or have in the past fallen into the catergory of being "over 200 pounds" The idea was that being in that weight range (or there in the past because some of us have fallen below 200 not me) that we could relate to each other better. This is a really supportive group and we talk about everything. Losing weight, exercising, work, Mates, kids, lack of kids, up coming kids, just life in general. We always have room for anyone who would like to jump in. We are pretty friendly group of girls.

    Thanks for all the sweet and supportive comments about Ry. If you have been here awhile you know that this last year with my son has been such a hard time for me. Trying to figure out what was going on and what I needed to do to help him. Just to see things start to really fall into place is amazing and I am thrilled. Thanks for sticking with me through this I am sure I have been one tracked at times about him and noone has ever made me feel like I should shut up. Just wanted to let you all know how much I appreciated all of you:flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou:

    Momma - that's wonderful news about Ryan, what progress in a few short weeks!!:drinker: There are so many people on the Autism spectrum whom you would never suspect unless they told you so, sounds like Ryan will be one of them :heart:

    Heather - Good for you singing up for the run challenge thingys, you've inspired me to seek something our in my area so I have a goal to work towards. After the wedding was over and done with it's be increasingly difficult to remain dedicated, I think I just need a new goal. I took ASL classes for a while right after college because I had a deaf friend. The classes were great but I soon forgot most of it. It will def help to be able to use it with your kids and keep it fresh. Good for you :drinker:

    Cris - who are you kidding, you are going to be a stunning bride and then a hot momma on your honeymoon :drinker:

    LilDeb - WTG on your review :drinker: :drinker: As somebody who's been an employee and now is the employer .................. One of the reasons that men earn more than women is because women are too polite are don't ask for a raise even when it's well deserved.

    TGIF SISTERS!

    Re losing holiday weight. I only got in 3 solid workouts this week so I can't complain about this. TOM should be here next week so I have no doubt I'm holding onto some water for that as well. Was hoping for more but that's okay. Next week will be a better week workout wise. Did pretty good on calories this week I think. Definitely need to watch sodium as well.

    Jess - you did awesome !! I think 1 lb is great it is 1 lbs closer and TOM was here this week so my weight last week i am sure was holding on to super water.. I see a huge number dropping for you next week

    Scale is all over the place this morning... very weird. I'm going to claim no loss this week. I'm fine with it, because I'm probably holding on to a bit of water. My muscles are sore. And.... it's the first week for goodness sake! haha

    Checking in for yesterday:
    Calories: Under!
    Water: Probably not enough, I'm extra thirsty this morning
    Exercise - Some wonderful at-home yoga. Must try to make that a weekly thing.
    Proud: I was extra bored yesterday and managed to steer clear of the kitchen

    HAPPY FRIDAY, LADIES! :)

    I think I overdid it on the sodium yesterday. guess I need to pay a little more attention to how much sodium is in tortillas. I am holding myself accountable though at least I am showing 1/2 lb down from Monday. Next Friday will show a better number I am confident!

    Sending emails to my clients this morning, updating the website with this months specials. Then I am working on a couple clients, going to the dentist to get my teeth cleaned, seeing the chiropractor and getting some grocery shopping and birthday shopping for my step daughter done! A busy day for me! So, I will probably not be back around until tonight!

    Have a fabulous day girls!
