Ok Imma try this again.....good to know Skittles, I did not know there was such a thing....I type pretty fast, but sometimes that means I hit stuff I do not mean to!

So, sorry I have been gone for a minute....it has been a crazy week!

Last weekend I was disgruntled, as my guys forgot Mother's Day, AGAIN! Its kinda long to explain but Mother's Day is very important to me, for a few different reasons, and they always seem to muck it up! They did try and make it up to be, but they do not really understand and their attempts were mediocre at best, so I was very unhappy. The men in my house SUCK! :indifferent:

Tuesday I did get a great workout in! I was able to walk at 2.0 for the majority of the 30 minutes on the treadmill, only slowing down to 1.5-1.8 a couple times for a couple minutes....I even did several 2.3 minutes and did the last 2.5 minutes at 2.5, so I am getting better!! I did another 5 minutes on the elliptical too! Man, even just five minutes of that is hard! I spent most of it just trying to convince myself that I can make it to the end! My weights seemed really heavy yesterday for some reason, more than usual, but I got through it. I was also able to get some sun finally!! I have psoriasis and the sun helps it a ton. Last summer was kinda crappy and then this winter was really really long, so my skin is really bad. It has been raining lots this last month, and the few good day we have had I was either stuck inside at work, or too busy to get out in it. I was so happy to get some, of course, the last two days has been raining again....but I am looking forward to getting out to the pool a lot this summer, since my kids are old enough to do whatever themselves.

Unfortunately I did not make it to the gym today. I am not very happy about that....I slept until around noon and that mucked up my plans, after that, I had so many errands to run, I just could not make it! So I only got there once this week. BOO! I won't be able to go tomorrow, but am going to try for a half hour of dancing at home. Soca dancing is great cardio, lol. Will have to get back to the gym next Tuesday.....I didn't even get everything done I wanted to do today! UGH!

Today has not been wonderful food wise....I am getting really frustrated that I feel I am certainly exercising more and the scale is not moving, at all, at all! It is making me feel like if I am not gonna get anywhere, I might as well eat (insert a million different foods here). Also I had some breakthrough uterine bleeding yesterday that freaked me out, but luckily it has stopped, however, it makes me want to eat EVERYTHING. I actually did not do too bad yesterday, but today was not pretty.

How are you guys? Zombie, interesting explanation for your name! And no, the only zombies I know are Walking Dead and sadly they are gone until October!! Skittles, how about your name?

BTW, if you guys are into movies, come join my movie group. I will be honest, it is not very active, but I am trying to get it to be. I usually post about once a week when I watch a movie....I love movies and go out to the theatre at least a few times a month, plus watch movies at home....I post almost every one I watch....please come check it out!

Hi ourlostprophet, welcome to the group! I'm around the same weight as you, and I'm looking forward to being under 300lbs again too! They are great exercise goals for the month. MFP is a great tool for weight loss. It has really helped me, and I hope it will help you too. :flowerforyou:

Unknown - how are things with you? You are doing awesome at the gym! I'm sorry your family forgot mother's day. :frown: I love the Walking Dead too, and I can't wait for it to come back. I love movies as well, so I'll be sure to check out your group.

Skittles - hey, how are things going?

Sadie, Star, are you there? I miss you both.

Hello ladies! Today my person and I spent FOUR hours cleaning my 16 year old son's bedroom! It was insane! He is so messy and I am always trying to get in there and clean up, and he never lets me. Well, he started working last weekend, so literally as soon as he left for work today we got to it. Teenage boys are just gross, lol. If that does not count as exercise, I do not know what does!

Funny story, after we were done, we needed to go out and get some groceries, and I had done all my laundry but just didn't feel like showering before we went. So I said, meh, I am gonna go in my PJs, pick up my groceries and shower when I get home. Looking like a complete bum, messy hair, and the whole nine yards....usually I might see one person I know....I literally saw like 12 different people that stopped to talk to me in the store....really? REALLY??

I was up and down the stairs a million times, plus cleaning and shopping, which is much more than I usually do on a Sunday, so I am sure I did well today. Tomorrow I work, but plan to go to the gym Tuesday for some cardio and weights!

I wonder where Star is? Maybe her new friend is kicking her butt at the gym and she can't even stay awake long enough to come online :laugh:

I hope Sadie is feeling better soon!

Skittles - your name? Candy? Or something else?

Zombie, - I can't wait either, I am so curious to see what is going on at that camp!! What kind of movies do you like?

OLP - welcome! This group certainly helps me get my butt going at the gym, cuz I always think that I can share here, maybe that will help you too!

I know everyone is probably going to be in the June challenge but I just wanted to post here really quickly just to say HEEEEYYYYYY!!!!

I'm ALIVE!!! LOL!! I'm not eating totally off track...I would say roughly 85% on track...but I have NOT been exercising...and I can DEFINITELY feel the difference in my body! I will be back soon...REALLY, I WILL!!!

IN the meantime take good care of each other and keep being AWESOME!!!!

HUGS ALL AROUND!!!
