Chisulo FF Week Three (SEPT. CHALLENGE-CLOSED GROUP)

Options
Ladies, first let me thank you for everything...for hanging in there, for sticking with me. I know that this is a time of adapting, as many of us are back to our SOCCER MOM duties with school starting, but still doing the other 1 MILLION things that we already had to do. However, I want to urge you NOT TO FORGET ABOUT YOUR PLEDGE AND ULTIMATE PRIORITY: TAKING CARE OF YOURSELF! As women, we often neglect ourselves for the sake of others, but what good are we to them, if we are not our best physically, emotionally and of course, spiritually? So as we get back in the swing of things...let's tap into that same fire that was within us in August Week One because believe it or not, it's still there! Much love ladies and let's keep those ticklers moving in the RIGHT direction!

    Thanks Monique! I really needed to hear that, especially since I havent felt "IT" this whole month so far...it has been hard with my switching jobs and then the Holiday and everything, I just feel so off track, but I am ready to get back on "mental" track cause it has been a rough month mentally... :sick:

    Today has been an excellent day for me though! I am hoping that the rest of the week is the exact same way!!

    Week 3: Day 1

    ALL CHALLENGES COMPLETE!! :bigsmile:

    I am so sorry that I have been sick for the past couple of days. I went to the doctor yesterday and was diagnosed with a throat and ear infection. Have spent most of my time in bed. I'm sorry to let you guys down. I will get back to my routine as soon as I am feeling better. Good luck everyone and keep pushing it forward. :heart:

    Hey girls...sorry I have been MIA it has been crazy at my casa...working, cleaning...working out....kids in school...you get my drift and probably are in the same boat...anyhoo just wanted to stop by and give some encouragement to you all.

    When you're feeling low,
    Lower than the floor,
    And you feel like you ain't got a chance,
    (BOM, BOM, BOM)
    Don't make a move,
    til you're in the groove,
    And Do The Peter Panda Dance.
    Hop 3 time like a kangaroo.
    Side step twice just like those crabs do,
    3 steps forward,
    1 step back,
    Quick like a turtle lie on your back,
    Roll like a log til you can't roll no more,
    Hop up quick like there ain't no floor,
    Hold you're breath,
    ...
    And jump to the left,
    And that's the Peter,
    I swear that's the Peter,
    That's the Peter Panda Dance!

    Thought you'd all like this...now who can guess what movie it is from, and what sexy actor sang it?

    By the way I am doing great but unfortunately not able to keep up with the challenge...so i guess it's good i am not on the team technically...although to be fair i am still working out 5-6 days a week and doing more strength training with my boys and just 0.8lbs from my other small goal...woohoo. I have not been this weight since i got married, lol. Blessings to you all !!!
