07/15: 162.4
07/22: ---
07/29: 161.2
08/05: 157.4

Up 2.6lbs from the last time I weighed myself. I'm really not surprised. I did it to myself by not working out as hard. No excuses.

I'm incredibly irritated/stressed at the moment, so I'm going to bed soon. This day has been hell. I can really only vent on here, so <begin vent> My Mother In Law has decided that I'm stuck up and I think I'm better than her and my father in law because I won't allow my son to be in their house that REAKS OF CIGARETTE SMOKE! I mean literally the walls are sweating tar. It's disgusting. I put up with it when it was me, but I didn't go over there while I was pregnant and we will go visit now as long as we stay outside. But we don't go in and she is upset because her grandson can't go inside. Which frankly, I would rather be the B**** than to subject my son to that crap. The man smokes 2-3 packs a day and there is no reasoning with him. But now I'm a horrible person and she is telling my husband (her son) all of this instead of confronting me. Even when he explains to her that neither one of us want our son to be in that environment, she blames it on me. She won't talk about it to me though. Mind you I put myself aside in this argument, I've dealt with asthma my whole adult life, just now realizing that it is brought on by irritants in the air, like smoke. I don't know how to go about dealing with this issue, so I've just put my foot down. If she wants to be mad at me then I guess so be it. I'm not giving in, when my son has no choice. I'm very thankful my husband agrees with me. But I really hate that he has to be at odds with his mother. <end vent>

My weekend pact is to get back on track. I need to get healthy first, pretty sure I have bronchitis. Lots of healthy whole foods and a ton of water and rest for me! Hope you all have a wonderful weekend!

PS- Robin the map is amazing. Well done!

PPS- thank you all for letting me vent... even if you don't read it, it felt good to get out!

Loraine -
I can only imagine I would miss my boyfriend like crazyyyyy if he was going to be gone so long! But so good you have your travels together to look forward to have a great week!! Kick some butt!! :-) xoxo

Blahhhhh! Don't know what going on but Ive eaten nothing but chocolate the last 3 days. I feel physically ill. Tomorrow morning I am forcing myself out of this rutt. I need to get back running and I need to get back to healthy eating or Im actually going to make myself sick. This is not good at all

I'm back! And ready to do this! :0) I haven't weighed myself in 3 weeks about, and I'm kind of nervous for this Friday's weigh in. Today's morning run was amazing!

Ok Hotties, its time for the results of "Coast to Coast" Challenge: Weeks 7 & 8! (sorry I've been having to do it 2 weeks at a time, things have been crazy).

Week 7 we traveled a total of 144 miles (14,374 calories total)! That's an average of 29 miles per hottie that week. Congrats to Kerri for being our biggest burner that week with an awesome 5,167calories!!!
We didn't bypass any stops that week but we're on our way to St. Louis which could take a bit. We ended up right around Cedar Falls, IA (point I). Point H on the map is where we were at the end of week 6, just for a reference.
Week 8 we traveled a sad 84 miles (8,375 calories total). That's an average of 21 miles per hottie this week. Congrats to Kerri again for being our biggest burner that week with an incredible burn of 5,842 calories!!! (That means she burned 70% of our total calories for the week, we need to step it up ladies). We ended up in Iowa City, IA this week (point J). Here's a map of the route so far:


We only had 4 girls report their burns for last week. I know things have been really stressful for most of us lately but we're only burning about 25% of the calories we did the first week so we're never going to make our goal unless everyone turns in their burns. This Sunday I'm going to send out a PM to all of our Hotties as a reminder (minus 1 or 2 girls that haven't been active on the forum, as I assume they've dropped out).

Let's pick this up our last month of the challenge and finish strong ladies!!!

You're sweet! :0) It's feeling good, getting out and getting moving!!

Hello Hotties! I am back in t he game. Sorry for not keeping you in the loop, first I got sick and then I had a mini-vacation/wedding to go to in Canada. We had a fantabulous time! I was the maid of honor and was able to fit in my dress, phew! That was a close call but the hard work payed off. Now back to tracking! I got a bit too relaxed and I don't want to fall completely off the wagon

Congrats dez! You looked amazing on your special day - oh how I love weddings

How is everyone's day going so far?! Killing your workouts I hope! I've got bootcamp for the first time in a week tonight and I can't wait to get a serious burn in, I've been feeling down lately and I need a good kick in the rear. Hope all my Hotties are doing well :flowerforyou:

Good Morning my Hotties!!

Sorry haven't been around much lately but just got through working crazy 12 hr shifts and have been stressed to the max. These shifts are nice once in a while because we get 4 days off in between but my weight loss suffers because we don't get proper meal breaks. Therefore I make bad choices because i am eating on the fly. I just about chew my arm off by the time I get home at 9 pm. Hubby doesn't cook so there are no leftovers to eat so I end up eating junk or prepackaged stuff because it is easy and quick.
WILL I EVER LEARN THAT THIS ISN'T GOOD FOR ME

So any way my weight is up and I am not pleased. It is back to square one for me. And go figure TOM is in the house again.

I need to get back in this game and get rid of this last 10 lbs! Technically....9.2 lbs.

I do have one NSV though. My hubby found a pair of pants of mine from years ago. A size 6. They fit when I put them on! They were a little bit tight, but they were GOOD!

@Loraine you are really doing fabulously .I saw the pics from the graduation (on facebook) and you are simply Gorgeous . Good for you!! Keep kicking butt. We all love you xoxo

Good Morning Everyone!! Hope you all had a great weekend. I had the best one ever!!

It all started with our daughter's ballgame Fri night. They lost but it put things in perspective for them. The we rushed off to our first night of darts. I didn't really want to go because I was going to have to face my travel buddies whom I haven't seen all summer. They called me 2 weeks ago with what seemed like a good deal to Jamaica for our girls trip this year. I had 2 days to decide. It had to be booked and paid in full by Oct 31st. This was a deal breaker for me as I have all my $$ tied up for my upcoming trip to Vegas in Oct. I was devastated and heartbroken. I thought they booked as I didn't hear any more about it. Low and behold, we get to darts and they tell me that they didn't book. I thought they were bull****tin me but they were serious. I was on cloud 9. Still am.

So the off to the ballfield early Sat for more ball. The girls played 2 games and won both to continue on to the finals on Sun. Very proud to say that I took my own lunch and snacks so I wouldn't have to eat ballfield junk. Did the same on Sun.

On Sun they played the best 2 teams in the league. They beat the 1st team to eliminate them but had to play the 2nd team twice to eliminate them. They beat them the 1st game (22-18) and lost the 2nd game (16-13). So they came home with the silver medal. So proud of our Golddiggers. My proudest moment though was when our daughter hit the ball after not even swinging the bat since sometime in July. It was a foul ball but that didn't matter. You should have seen her face. Smilin from ear to ear. Another proud moment was when Logan placed the silver medal around her father's neck. Coaches and helpers get medals too which is nice. It made me teary eyed.

So all in all a great weekend. Still flyin high about the silver medal and the Jamaica thing.

BTW I haven't posted my miles walked for the past 3 weeks so I'll do it now. 22.33, 28.58 and 28.98 miles walked for a total of 79.89 miles. I've been busy and totally forgot to post them.

Only a few weeks left in this challenge so it is time to kick it up. WE NEED TO GET TO LA!!
