    @Sandcastles61 I love our new name and at the moment it totally fits!!

    @cristina0000 congrats on getting to the 150s you are doing a marvelous job! Glad you had a great time at Disney with your family

    @lovesretirement how was the body pump class? I remember the first one I did - I could move or lift my arms for a week :-) jolly good fun though


    Keep at it everyone!

    @cristina0000 Maybe decreased stress from normal daily life helped you with the loss? Having fun is good for you. :)

    Hi gang. I doubt any of you are awake at this time of night. It has been a massively crazy day. I was home for 55 minutes in 14 hours. I decided to soak in my jacuzzi tub with Epsom salts......I fell asleep for 3 hours in there. Don't worry I can't slip in and drown........it's a 5 foot tub and I'm 5'9.......so now I'm off to the rack. I'm drained.

    Good morning, misfit losers! Happy Wednesday!

    B) Nancy...moving in the right direction! That's all we can ask, huh? ;)
    B) Cristina...good job!
    B) Esther... You have been VERY busy these last few days! Be sure to get a rest day in there somewhere!
    B) Faye... I liked the class and was very proud of myself for going, participating, and lasting the entire time! I credit that to the personal training I've had since December. That has paid off because, without it, I would not have lasted. Granted, I used the lightest weights and sometimes no weights, but it was an intense class. I may go again Thursday! :s

    B) Marie...where are you???

    It's going to be another beautiful day and I'm headed to the gym for training and the pool. The >:) scale is not moving, but I will. At some point, the numbers have to catch up to my body, right?? :#

    Have a great day!
    Stay strong!

    Happy birthday Becky!!!! Hoping you have a GREAT day <3

    Good luck today everyone on our daily goals. I was bang on yesterday with my changed up macros and got my swim laps in last night. Rainy today here so it is going to be an inside day for me, which means my focus is on the food and staying away from the kitchen LOL.

    Good morning!

    Thanks everyone! I am just so thrilled about the scale finally moving and reaching the 150's!

    This morning I went to Veterans Hospital for lab work. My body absolutely hates giving blood...I tried to warn the lab technician that I was difficult to draw blood from but she thought she was better than everyone else. In the end, I got stuck once in the arm and twice in the hand. She also acknowledged that I was difficult! I used to hate getting my blood drawn due to the difficulty but now I just expect to get stuck more than once.

    Besides that, I'm having a good morning. Hopefully I can get my 3 Liters of water down today...I only finished 2 yesterday.

    I just lost my post. Grrrrrrr!!!!

    Checking in and want to say HAPPY BIRTHDAY BECKY!

    Cristina - Nice job on the pounds lost! My goal is 160 and seems so far away.

    My Fit Bit is reporting that I am under budget on my calories. Not eating enough.
    If I eat more I will gain. I know my body. My calories goal is 1400 and they are
    giving me over 1600. When we age we don't need as much food like we used to.

    Shirley, you can adjust the Fitbit calorie goal to what you need it to be.

    Janice, Yes I did a lot of walking while at Disney. My Fitbit said I walked around 17000 steps a day. I generally average 5000 at home.

    Beautiful day so we got in some yard work this morning.

    Happy birthday Becky!!!!!!

    Today I plan on doing NOTHING but sit and contemplate my navel. I have one costume to repair and a blanket to crochet. So that is what I am going to do today. In fact I already told the kids I am taking them out to eat dinner because I am too pooped to pop today. I was so exhausted last night I had a hard time falling asleep in bed. I could in the tub but when I got to bed I was wide awake. I hate it when that happens. But there is no dance rehearsal today thank God......

    Esther

    Ps I will try to attach a pic of my dancers later

    @eyegirl777va Actually, I felt great today. If I had not been working with a trainer for the last 4 months, I would not have had the stamina/ flexibility to get through the class and I would have been sore! It was intense, and I was sweating buckets, but I really liked the challenge. :D I plan to go again tomorrow.
