    Janet - Wow, when it rains, it pours, right? Keep your head up! Hope everyone feels better soon and glad that you're grandma is okay.

    Anina - You rock!

    Reesa - I know it's hard to stay motivated. I'm in a bit of a rutt myself right now. Glad JR was able to get you going! Exercise can only lead to positive things!

    Sherri - Wowsa, what a workout!

    Sorry all for not posting yesterday. It'll have to be my day off for this week (already!). I've been going through a little bit of an emotional rollercoaster right now and bouts of depression and lack of motivation are the main side effect. My dad is terminally ill (cancer all over) and I'm starting to have a hard time with it, having just lost my Mom in 2007. I don't have a relationship with my dad, so the current situation has me entirely confused and emotional. So, of course, all I want to do is lay around and eat. At least I kept my calories in check yesterday, but I barely moved a muscle. It'd be great if I could just get angry about the whole thing and take out my aggression in the gym.

    I'm back in the game this morning. I've already gone 3.5 miles on the elliptical (9 minute miles!), completed the challenge exercises for Day 2 and did 50 crunches so far.

    Everyone is doing so well! It's so great to see!
  • TY for all of the posts!!! I completed everything yesterday then did an extra 60 minutes more during the 2 hour premiere of Biggest Loser last night!

    PS PLEASE forgive me but today I am finally able to update my fantasy league team and I'm really zoned out right now focusing on it. I PROMISE I will return to normal later today!!!!

  • Tribe today became my day off. Wasn't the plan but here is what happened. I planned on running. Rain, rain and rain. Finally it stopped raining late afternoon. I get all dressed in my running tights and drive into town and go to the track where I feel SAFE to run with lighting. Um, cars everywhere and I soon realize a football game is in progress. Sigh. So by the time I drive back I'm in such a foul mood I decide @$&!(@%!! it! Today is my day off.

    I stayed under calories by 2 calories. Whew and over on water.

    HUGS Tribe!

    1 hr cardio, all challenges and bonus. Water was 18 servings. Under calories. Been talking with Lori, I'm thinking about taking the captain helm and doing a timed base challenge next month if anyone is interested. Working out the themes but it will be fun and allow more flexibility.

    According to hrm 1.2k workout burn tonight in just under two hours. Did 200 crunches and challenges.

    Sherris that is why we are doing a time challenge were the goal is x amount of minutes a week. I liked this challenge but sometimes it was hard to find time to specific things. Letting people choose their workouts and just have people motivating each other is my goal next month. I should call it a support group or network were we hold each other accountable beyond basic Mfp is the goal.

    7 days left this month going to make a big push this next week with a goal of 1.5 hrs a night minus tomorrow. That should bring my calorie burn from working out to right at 7k calories burnt. Goal is 312.6 down from 315.6 I am now. Let's rock this girls! It's been pleasure to be the immature one and loud one!
  • Thx for the update Sherri and TY JR for the info!!!!!! :smile:

    I am tuckered out. I completed everything for the day and just physically beat. :sick:

    Night and sweet dreams Tribe!!!! :flowerforyou:
  • COMPLETED EVERYTHING PEEPS WILL GIVE BREAKDOWN TOMORROW! I NEED TO GET TO BED XX
  • I have had the day from hell. I installed Google Chrome today. It totally crashed my laptop. I'm typing this from a desktop pc right now.

    Janet messaged me earlier and she has been admitted to the hospital with respiratory issues.

    I am hoping for a much much much better tomorrow.
