    GAH! I think I'm going to need some Tylenol tonight! Cleaned the house top to bottom; went to bro and SIL's house and mowed their lawn for about 40 mins to help prep for our family celebration on Sunday; then hopped in the pool and played with the kids for 90 minutes. My legs are about ready to fall off!

    I've had 4 workouts this week. Gonna have another one today and will rest tomorrow (by rest i mean i will probably just go for a walk and not use the gym).

    I love reading over the posts on this group. I'm enjoying being in a group of people who essentially have the same goal and the same struggle to get there. It's refreshing to know you're not on your own doing this.

    I feel the same when I get discouraged I stop take a moment and read this. I find it helps a lot :)

    Managed to do a 3.5 mile walk today, in spite of the heat. I've done a lot of walking (for me) this week, and my bad hip is a little aggravated at this point. I think I'll be taking tomorrow as a rest day. I need to remind myself that sometimes rest can be the healthiest thing to do.

    Did some impromptu hiking while covering a story yesterday afternoon, then spent another 45 minutes in the pool last night, keeping up with the nieces and nephews. Gotta finish up a couple of writing assignments (I freelance for the local paper; this is my weekend on duty), then head out for the family celebration which will include, you guessed it, more pool time!

    I'm so physically exhausted, I almost fell asleep in church this morning. Thanks for motivating me to stay active! :happy:

    I started going for bike rides with my girls, and I think I'm going to try to get a bike ride in daily or at least every other day because my legs and but are sore lol. Positive change I started eating sugar snap peas at night instead of chips :)
