    cazz....you look GREAT!

    thanks!

    ...I'm getting there... slow but sure!

    And people are noticing - finally! But I still wear my old scrub tops, and they are huge! (I like them roomy.) So ya can't really see that I am smaller under them. :happy: My face is much thinner now and I think people are noticing that.

    Yeah... I like my scrub tops roomy too. But the unfortunate thing is they are too short! They forgot tall women have longer torsos. I don't think my patients want to see my midriff spilling out over my pants....lol!

    Cazz.. looking good, girl!!!! I agree though, show it off! Get the next size down in those highly unflattering scrub tops! I used to have to wear them and it always felt so good to change when I got home so I didn't feel so frumpy!!!!

    Sun's out today, but it's cool. Hoping tomorrow is nice and that it warms up for good soon!!!! And if someone doesn't shoot that ice cream truck driver I just might be MIA for a while!!! LOL!

    That visual made me laugh! :laugh: I am REALLY short, so I guess I never really thought what scrubs would be like on a tall person! :happy:

    Thing is that I MAKE my own scrubs... I am too cheap to buy them! :happy: So I guess I figure I already put the work in, I might as well keep wearing them. :ohwell: But I have just cut out some new ones for summer holidays... in a much smaller size! :wink:

    Cazz - you look FABULOUS!!!!! Keep up the good work! :flowerforyou:

    THANK YOU!!

    You guys are stellar!! :heart:

    Works for me. I know we all have busy lives and you do so much with those challenges. Thanks for all you do. Also, I did not say earlier...nice hairdo! Looks good on you!

    Good Tuesday to all! My Monday did not turn out as expected. My wonderful MIL had a mini stroke and was taken to the hospital. So here I sit. She is stable but working through the reality that she has to go to a rehab center for a short while to recover. Lost some word recall abilty and having some ambulation issues. For an almost 89 year old...she rocks. So please keep her in your thoughts. I will try to get a walk in today. It is sunny out and I will need to stretch soon!

    Happies....
    Family!
    Sunshine!
    Not eating cafeteria food...packed a lunch and snacks!

    Love to all!
    Linda

    Cazz - you look great! And it's awesome that people are noticing - that finally makes all the sessions with the slave driver worth it :happy:

    April - I think 2 week challenges are a great idea. You put so much time and effort into them that we can easily be challenged for two weeks.

    elysetoplin - congrats on losing 5 pounds during this challenge! That's so fantastic!

    Crystal - good luck with the in-laws and I hope you have a great time in Florida...you can totally get back on track and lose that pesky pound.

    Linda - I hope your MIL is doing well and you and your family are in my thoughts. I think it's amazing that you packed a lunch and snacks for your wait in the hospital and YOU are my inspiration today. You rock too!

    Two more miles tonight!!! Was lucky to get out of work early so I could get it in before my son's band concert! I'm still feeling my workout from Sunday... really hit the weights hard that day! It was awesome, but my arms are still telling me all about it!!!! I think I ought to go back tomorrow and really show them who's in charge!! LOL!

    Saw some after pics of a pretty lady tonight... and I WANT HER SHOULDERS!!!! I know she worked hard, and I want that, so I need to work just as hard.... I'm nearly there weight wise, but toned arms and shoulders? Not yet. The work starts NOW!

    This mama wants to look HOT on her 40th birthday next spring!!!!!

    Clocked in another 4 miles tonight. It was painful after last night's 4 miles :sad: but hey, I've already done 8 miles this week and it's only Tuesday :bigsmile: YAY!!! I also started the 30 day shred yesterday and bust my rear on it tonight so I imagine that tomorrow will be my rest from running day. Gotta give these knees a break :yawn:

    I hope everyone is having a wonderful week. Nursee, your MIL is in my prayers. Hopefully she is in wonderful hands and her recovery will be a quick one.
