    We just did the coolest thing. We were on our way to Target to get a couple things for my new bike riding endeavor and we passed by this park where they were having a "vehicle" show. All kinda of police cars and fire trucks and buses and stuff. Owen loved it! He got to sit in the driver seat of most of the vehicles and then he wouldn't leave and we caused a bit of a scene. (past his nap time).

    But yeah. So I got a nice squishy bike seat, an odometer for the bike and a water bottle holder thing. Oh and a sports bra. I finally broke down and bought one. My bewbs tend to peak out of the top of most of my tank tops and I hate wearing t shirts outside when its hot while i'm working out. so I'm actually pretty excited. Also.. I only had to buy a large. :bigsmile:

    Awesome job on the workout Shuntae!!!! I know how you feel. My BF was on the phone for like an hour and a half last night with his mom while I ws waiting for us to watch a movie. Annoying. :noway:

    We're close to locking up the thread again! Way to go team!!!
    :drinker:

    That must have been fun for him :bigsmile:

    And congrats on the smaller shirt!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Dave, Harley, and I did a 5K-walk (3.1 miles - I looked it up online :laugh: ) in Pittsburgh today. It took us just under 45 minutes. We weren't tired yet so we walked around Pittsburgh some more. It was really fun. Harley enjoyed it too. Though she called it a 5K-snooze. :laugh:

    Deep breath... Okay. I took before pictures. (Even though I'm 9 lbs in)

    I think I'm going to take pictures every 20 lbs...

    Whew. I did it. :ohwell:

    Vanessa I did that months ago and then did that again the other week and had to delete them off my camera. I took pics of my friends new baby and didn't want no one else to see the ones of me. So I have to break down and do it again. Don't feel so bad about it. Your pics look just like mine. It will be ok because we are going to get past all this!!!

    I think I will break down and do the same. I hate getting my pic taken, especially in tight fitting clothes.lol. Major bellowing muffin top, but hopefully not anymore come this time next year! Off to work. Ughhhhh! Don't want to go, but bills are calling my name. Everyone have a good evening

    Way to go, girl. Be proud of yourself for taking the initiative to take that picture, and keep them so you don't forget how far you've come!

    Vanessa, before pics are the worst thing in the world to see. BUT, they are great to have once you've lost and you can see how far you have come.

    Jeannie, so glad you could run like the wind, I'm sure it felt great.

    Marla, my first hubby would catch up on his sleep all freaking day while I did everything, took care of the kids, etc.... maybe why he's not mine anymore! I remember I used to get so blinkin mad I could hardly see straight! Then he would wake up all rested and happy and wonder why I was a total witch. Hmmmm....

    Well, he's not feeling great these days-- and I know stress is getting to him, big time. He's got some funky tingling in his left side and REALLY needs to get to a doctor-- but unless I call and make the stinkin' appointment, the baby won't go--

    Men-- can't live with 'em, can't live with 'em--

    Ha.

    He's a good guy-- I get a couple wires crossed when I'm working and he isn't-- ***** in me, I guess--

    It rears its ugly little head now and then-- :wink:

    I am off to go sing some older country and bluegrass music and spend some time with my family in a family friendly environment with no drinking. Haven't had a drink in a while actually. Hope you all have a great Saturday night!!!!

    Hey all!

    Thanks for all of the kind words about the pics. I can't wait to but before and after pictures side by side! Thats why I took the first ones.

    I just got back from my first official bike ride.. :love:

    Now that I've got a decent bike and I'm getting my balance back.. it's awesome. I'm going to have to build up some of the muscles in my legs again cuz there's like the same spot on each leg that is killing me.

    TOM is still here and I'm still tiring easily so I only went for 15 minutes. Burned 265 cals. i hope it's gone by Wed. Stupid TOM. :grumble:

    I love my bike. It's sitting over there
    > and I keep looking at it and how pretty it is. HAHA. I think i'm just glad that I found something to do outside that won't cause me stabbing pain in my shins. Yay! :drinker:

    :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

    You just reminded me about how I used to get drunk, do cartwheels for an hour and wake up in the morning wonder why every muscle in my body was pulled. Then I'd get mad at Jim for letting me do that. :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

    My daughter and her BFF were around 10 yrs old, which puts me at about 38 or so. They were in the front yard doing cartwheels. I said something about being able to do that at one time in my life.

    They LOL.........long and hard...........:angry:

    So I ran across the yard and did a PERFECT round-off! Stuck it and threw my hands in the air like ya do..........Smiled at the :noway: look on their faces.

    I can still see their 2 lil blonde heads with big blue eyes looking back at me, cute little blue matching bathing suits.

    Wow mom, you really DID do gymnastics.

    What they didnt know is when I awoke the next morning every muscle in my body hurt!!! :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: That is some good stuff!!:huh: :laugh: :laugh:
