**VICTORIOUS SECRET*WK 3**SEPT~TRIBAL~(CLOSED GROUP)

Hello Tribe,

Quick update: I have completed PYGMY Day 2 (week 3). I am going to have to work on the crunches Calories under, water well over!
Daughter is doing good. Hopefully we go home on Monday.
Have a great night. I am running around talking to docs, nurses and trying to prepare for our transition, most of the day, so the next couple of days will be me peeking in for a few minutes.

YAAAAAAAAAAAAY TO GOING HOME! That is AWESOME news and you are an AMAZING woman Nica to keep up your hard work! I can't imagine the stress you are dealing with but to be able to get on with the challenge YOU FRIGGIN ROCK!
BIG MWAAAAAAAAAAAAAHS COMING TO YOU, YOUR GIRL AND THE REST OF YOUR FAMILY FROM THE ROK XX

Hey everyone!
Cheers to a couple of power outages today for "no" apparent reason. My food preparation went belly up and I ended up ordering in Korean. My dinner just killed me despite getting rid of the rice and the slaw that came with it. Having the tartare sauce that came with it was not a good choice but kaka happens and I paid.
Also had my flatmate buy me a chocolate bar on her way home. She'd only just got through the door and I got it off her and practically swallowed the whole thing without chewing! I tell you what right, I've gone from NEVER liking chocolate or sweets to craving it! My friends and hubby can't believe it and neither can I!

Now I really need to get to bed - I've got to be up in 5 hours!
Went swimming this morning! Thanks to KJ it was another successful lesson. I was able to do 7 laps using the kickboard in half an hour! WOOOOOHOOOOOO

Already over on water and I'm on track to be under on calories.

*sigh* *pant* Whew!

And I was proud of myself today - I ordered a grilled chicken sandwich and a water. They accidentally put some delicious looking fries on my tray and it took everything in me, but I said, "I actually just ordered a sandwich," and watched them take them off of my tray and throw them away...

YOU SHOULD BE PROUD OF YOURSELF! YOU KILLED IT! AWESOME! :drinker: :drinker: :drinker: :drinker: :drinker: :drinker:

I was sick yesterday, hopping back on the wagon today. I've completed every challenge and bonus everday but yesterday. I'm really bad at posting in this forum. Mainly because the iphone app doesn't have the forums on it.

I did make a image for me since you all had name tags.. Yours were way too girlie for me.. :-)

Bah the forums are too narrow... here is a link..http://i8.photobucket.com/albums/a27/iceknife/jrlol2-1-1.jpg

Hello Tribe!!! Before I do say anything I want to ask that everyone PLEASE update their info on the spreadsheets if they haven't lately. TY!!!!

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AiJ-z3hO1RegdFR2UDNUY1NHM3NHbUhkeTF3RDRCcnc&hl=en_US

TY for all of those wonderful updates!!! I will NEVER get tired of getting texts from you Reesa!!!!! I love them!!!!!:smooched:

K, I got everything done today but my workout was not as intense. I did a mixture of dance and pilates since I still have a headache which is unusual for me. I'm thinking maybe it's sinus/hayfever/Missouri change of weather nonsense. :grumble:

Sorry I've been more quiet today. My head is really not feeling good but I don't like to be a complainer so I just suck it up and move on. Maybe if I get to bed earlier tonight that will help and I will feel normal in the am. :ohwell:

LOVE YOU TRIBE and I read everything you posted and I love you all and I'm VERY proud of you!!!! I have gotten messages from other tribes that are not bonding too great this month... so I'm pretty rootin tootin proud of us!!!!! :drinker: :bigsmile: :flowerforyou:

I saw your status update Lori - glad you are feeling better!!! And, ok.. will text away..LOL. I also updated the speadsheet, sorry.

Yesterday - challenges completed, under cals and over water. Also, I biked 5 miles - but, now I see I was supposed to walk, run, or jog...bahumbug! I guess reading is fundamental..lol...I'll do it by the end of the week.

You guys are doing phenomenal! Love and hugs to all.

That being said I've asked JR to be in charge tomorrow. If you need anything you can text me or message JR. If anything goes wrong please feel free to blame it all on JR as well, lol!!!

The CO likes to chew a lot of butt but I've got more butt than she's got teeth, get a move on it ladies!

A day without Lori?! No! Glad you're headache is gone. I have a feeling that you're leaving us in good hands. So, safe travels!

Challenge Wk3, Day 4 complete. Only 25 crunches today so far, so I'll add more before dinner. At this rate, I doubt I'll get in the 500 this week.

Over on water, and will definitely be under on calories today.

Now to rearrange our closet so that it can fit two sets of golf clubs...

Hi Tribe!

Feeling better today. Looking forward to Dr. release tomorrow. Spent the afternoon in ER with daughter today. She fell at school and has a concussion. This is gonna be an expensive month for medical bills.

Hope everyone is doing well!

Janet

Oh no! Praying for your daughter quick recovery.
