    No loss this week but NO GAIN either!!!:bigsmile: So I am counting that as a victory. This weekend wasn't as easy as I'd hoped it would've been. Was hurting in my back pretty constantly all weekend although I did manage to get a little exercise in even if it was just me cleaning (btw, mopping the kitchen will not be done by me again until I heal some more.) Today is a new day and a new week. I will continue to strive and work as hard as I possibly can. I am thinking that I might need to change my goal more to like 5lbs though considering. What do you think Rabbit?? Going back to the chiro this afternoon. Hoping he can give me a little more relief and some good news. Love to all and GOOD LUCK on meeting your goals! You CAN do ANYTHING you put your mind too!!!! Love ya my fellow VIrgos!:heart:

    Thank you for asking and yes, I would most likely change my goal were I in your athletic shoes! LOL

    Shoot for lucky #7!!!

    I hope the chiro (heat treatments)?? is working for you. you deserve to be healed & feel better today.

    Mopping the kitchen?

    HhhhMmmm....what on earth were ya thinkin'???

    stop that right now silly goose :) take care this week!!

    and again, thanks for contributing:flowerforyou:

    No heat yet, just ice. He said it was better yesterday when I went compared to when I was there Saturday. I will be changing my goal. I'll TRY for 7lbs. Wish me luck.

    Yep, mopped the kitchen. LOL Well, with 4 kids it gets pretty nasty and if I didn't do it, well you know, it wouldn't get done. The chiro did tell me that I CAN'T do that again until I'm healed more. So, looks like SOMEONE in the house will be learning how to mop very soon. :wink:

    Since the only form of exercise I'm allowed to do is walking, I WILL be walking AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE!!!! Have a great day/week my Virgo friends!!! :heart:

    you are so kind! I am happy that you have changed to a more doable goal, who knows, you just might surprise yourself too:glasses: :heart: :glasses:

    Sooooooo happy to jump you in! our group will always be open to all & we will keep going beyond

    our Birthdays with the support of that which only a group can bring:flowerforyou: I believe that

    your goal of 10 is ambitious and also very doable. Set some new perimeters for yourself in

    the movement department, like what I am trying, upping my exercise to 90 minutes instead of 60!

    best wishes to you in all of your endeavors!

    I hear ya'! This is normal for our bodies to exchange loss of different amounts

    even if we do the "same" things week in and week out,

    (although most weeks are different) LOL ,,,

    You have a great attitude here!!!:flowerforyou:

    :heart: I am very pleased as should you be (and I know you are):bigsmile:

    :glasses: :flowerforyou: :heart: We're into a new week here on the Virgo Challenge!!!

    What do you guys do when you have a sweet tooth? I love chomping down on

    some sweet organic carrots, preferably full size, none of these whittled down

    "baby carrots" for me! Lately, at my holistic doctors request, I have been eating handfuls of

    organic raisins as well. I believe it correlates with the body becoming more

    alkaline which then produces better health overall...ENJOY!

    I would love to hear your ideas in the sweet tooth department, oh, and just as an aside,

    I heard that pickles have the ability to quench that desire for sweets, ideas? Thoughts?

    Have a great week of healthy eating and move! move! move! dear Virgos:wink:

    :bigsmile: I never fear a pickle! (well, unless your doctor has warned against them???)

    you can eat them slowly one at a time LOL

    and just remember to cut sodium down from other items!

    I eat salt free whenever possible so that when I want that pickle I just go for it.

    Also, I drink a gallon of water a day, I do not fear pickles:bigsmile:

    Welp, I almost made it. Saturday is my birthday, but we're leaving town today for a trip to the mountains. Hubby's birthday is today, two days before mine, so we always do something kinda fun for "our" birthdays. I won't have access to a scale again until Monday.

    But the scale is an evil b*tch. It hovered at 199.8 for a moment, and I got all excited. Then it bumped up to 200 flat. I thought maybe I jinxed it and got on the scale again. It went right to 200 flat. *sigh* So much for ONEderland by my birthday. I got close, tho.....any closer, and I'd be there, but I'm not bitter. Not bitter at all. :grumble:
