New Black Team WEEK 1

Yea and i have to work the next three days! Ugghhhh!!! How much can one person miss when they work 12 hour days? I will have too much reading to do by the time I get back!!! Someone should take notes to keep me informed. Shouldn't that be done by our fearless MASCOT???? Lol!!! That way I can stay informed!

Okay, as much fun as this is, I need to so tomorrow morning I am not .

Evening all.

Still busy I see. Well hitting the gym actually made the achey back feel better. got 530 calories burned and feeling much better. Anyhoo I have another long day at work tommorow but at least I am not doing a rediculous amount of driving for a change. Have a great night friends!

:bigsmile: :drinker:

I'm here! Got my 200 calories burned...plus some.

Sorry I haven't been around much, my daughter and grandson are here and he's so adorable I can't pull myself away.

To my fellow black team members....Hi !!!!!!!!!

To my new team members ...Hi !!!!!!!!!

:laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

I have banana bread in the oven and I think I'm drooling on my keyboard......

My husband likes really green bananas. The other day I got semi-green ones at Wal*Mart. Then I went to Giant Eagle and they had even greener ones so I bought more. We ended up with about 2 dozen bananas. (Oops!) Even eating 2 a day, DH didn't get through them in green-ness time so now we have about 8 brown-spotted bananas on our table. Too bad I don't like banana bread.

We go through bananas so fast I have to hide some so I can use them for banana bread! How sad (or good) is that? We have 4 kids ages 9-13, so we go through lots of everything fast!

Try more than doubling the kid count-- the bananas don't even make it home from the store--

I'm not kidding. :ohwell:

I should have figured it out.

Those views are not ALL me! :laugh:

Hahaha. That's the result of several dedicated thread stalkers. :laugh:

Ladies we have a lot of thread stalkers who are not even on the team! How do you think we got our pretty little mascot! :flowerforyou:

That is soooo true Sam! I used to stalk your threads when I was on the Purple Team just to see what you were doing!!

No team has more fun than we do-- !!!!!!

I'm in for the 200 calories and dedicating a pound to the cause.


Had a bad day though. My job keeps on making me sample food. Eating healthy just way over the 1200 calories. Today was 1600. :sick:

I don't know how you do it Marla.... you must like kids more than I do! Plus, I avoid taking mine along to the store at all costs.

I got in 750 cals at the gym yesterday! WOO! I still need to pledge my lb for lb, but I'm scared b/c that means setting a goal & those freak me out. :indifferent:

Have a happy Thursday!

I should have figured it out.

We B+tch
We hug
we cheer each other on
we have even been known to try to track someone down when they disappeared for a few days

GOOOOOOOOOOOOO Black Team!!

Looks like it's gonna rain the rest of the day. Guess my workout will be indoors. Now the decision is to do Wii fit, Jillian Wii, or Jillian DVD????

Yep, rainy and chilly all day here too. Im leaning more towards a Leslie Sansone DVD. I used her dvd's all winter long and did well with the weight loss so Leslie here I come!!:drinker:

95 pounds!!!!!!!

Unreal, Roni-- so amazing!!!

I'm so proud of you!

Thanks Marla:blushing: your pretty amazing yourself lady!!:drinker:

We are having us a black team par-tay when you hit 100, Roni! You are an amazing inspiration to us!

Party? Please tell me someone didnt say PARTY!:noway: Girly-Beans I been avoiding parties at all costs lately lol. Partys ALWAYS mean there will be CAKE:noway: :laugh: But I do have one coming up for my youngests' 8th grade graduation on the 28th. Im trying real hard to hit that 100 lbs gone mark before then so I can treat myself to just one little tiny sliver of his cake as a reward:blushing:
Thank you so much for your kind words Sara...you and Jeannie and Marla and a few others have been with me from "the start" it feels like and were always there and ready to give me words of encouragment and keep me moving on when I felt like I wasnt getting anywhere. I just wanted to say that and you ladies will never know how much its meant to me. Now, before I start a cry-fest I will end this subject with a simple I my Black Team!:flowerforyou: :drinker:
P.S. I could never forget the guy that keeps me moving on either...Andrew

Good Morning Black Team!! :flowerforyou:

What can I do for you today??:laugh:

Good morning everyone!

I didn't wake up early this morning because it's supposed to be a "rest" day...well, that and it's hard to get up at 5 am to exercise! I'm hoping to sneak in a workout tonight after I get home from work. Hopefully hubby or 19 yr old will watch the little ones for me.

Yesterday I burned 700 cals working out. 45 min in the morning with My Fitness Coach, and a half an hour "run" in the evening (lol, I'm no where near running - more like a slow jiggly jog - but I'm hoping to get there someday!). I actually ran up the hill (when I say hill, I live in the Appalachian Mountains in WV, so they are STEEP) though I had to stop and walk here and there.

I think I have an exercise addiction. I quit one addiction for another lol - smoking to exercising - but I think that's a step in the right direction
