    Good morning!!

    Welcome Katrina!! You'll love it here!! It's really a great group of gals!! I think that Crystal will be able to add you to the spreadsheet so that you can have full access. We use the spreadsheet to track our exercise, weigh ins & challenges!! It's really a great motivator!!

    Jenny I'm not sure if this is too late or if it'll even work, but I read one of Crystal's earlier posts & found this link to the spreadsheet. Give it a try!

    And, you TOTALLY get a gold star for your good eating!! :drinker:

    Have a great day girls!!

    I am back on the wagon tomorrow morning. My bf called me this evening and asked me if I want to go with her to California in October. I said oh yeah. So that means I have 4 1/2 months to get at least 30 lbs off. I am going to kick some butt.

    Good morning to ALL!!

    Tabby, it looks like your BF just gave you the motivation you need!! California in 4 1/2 months!! You are going to kick butt!! If you break it down to 10lbs a month, or 2 lbs a week you'd easily meet your goal!! Keep yourself focused & know that this is attainable!! :drinker:

    Jenny, I"m glad to hear that you're back to posting!! I've not been to the forum lately. Are you posting there as well?? I'll have to mosey on over & check it out. And, by the way, thank YOU for the motivation & friendship!! (((HUGS))):wink:

    Connie, great job on being on track!! You're going to have an awesome weigh in! :glasses:

    Amanda, you are back girl!! Woot Woot!! Those workouts look awesome!!:happy:

    Mina, how are you holding up?? Don't let things get you down!! :smile:

    Laura, where are you? I don't see your name on the sheet.... :sad:

    Katrina, are you with us?? Do you have any questions?? We hope that you're still around! This is a great group! :tongue:

    Thank Sandy :smile: Hey how is your ankle doing?

    It's okay, getting a little better everyday! It's just hard taking it easy. I'm used to burning so many more calories with my workouts & really working up a sweat. Hopefully this change up will keep my body guessing & I can continue losing. I've definately learned the importance of rest days & letting your body heal after your workouts.

    Have a great day & keep going!! :drinker:

    Welcome Back MammaKisses!!! I'd love to come to Canada for a visit & good workout!! :laugh:

    I had a not so good weekend. I didn't behave as well as I would've liked to & I didn't exercise at all on Sunday! Well, it's the start of a new week!! I've got some work to do!

    Hope that you all did well!!

    I hope you all had a great week end...
    Sandy don't feel bad, I didn't do any exercise yersterday eather and then I ended it with cheese cake......But I'm not going to feel bad, it was to too good!!!
    But I'm feeling sad..Yesterday my son (He's my middle kid) left home...He's 19. My hubbie's company offered him a job down in New Mexico. So he left to start today down there. Bob (my hubbie) leaves the first of next month (after we go on vacation) to start working down there.....and Me, I"m struck here until the house sales, maybe??????? :cry:

    mammakisses I'ed much rather be going go to Canada..I've always wanted to visit there. maybe one of these days.

    Well, I have so much to do this week to keep me moving I gess I'ed better get started..

    It would sure be fun to meet ladies.:happy:

    Today I slept in until 8:30, I really needed it. Now I feel refreshed. I cleaned up a bit around the house cause cake icing and toddlers don't mix well. And I just fit in a small 10 minutes speed walk before my husband left for work. I feel great.

    Good luck ladies.

    Hey Ladies!!! Sorry I havent been around much!! Things been crazy. Still waiting for the neurosurgeon to call so that we know which surgery my mom is going to need. Coil or open surgery. I am praying for coil since it would be alot easier for my mom. She still isnt feelinf herself. My Kids will be home tommorrow!!!!

    I played wii fit for the first time this weekend I WANT ONE!!!!!!!! I hope someday I will get one!!

    Well great Job everyone I am so proud of you all and I will be around to check in!!!:yawn:

    Hello there ladies!!!

    Crystal you and your mom will remain in my thoughts and prayers!!!

    mammakisses- sleeping in is always a nice treat :) Glad to hear that you are feeling great today!

    constancemwj- That has to be hard to have your family away from you! I hope and pray that your house will sell fast!

    Sandy- That is a great attitude you have, you are right it is a brand new week and a great time to turn yourself around. I did not do the greatest this weekend either. I did not eat junk but did eat a lot. So I am right there with ya :)

    Well I have a nasty sore throat today :( I am going to do my 30day shred and my ab work out but that is it today. I am working hard at not skipping a day for the next two weeks. But I know that I am going to have to skip next monday as I will be driving back up to my parents house for 10 hours that day lol. So anyway going to go and rest (cleaned the house all day). Hope you are all having a great Monday!

    Good morning ladies!!

    If I can hold it together, I think I'm going to have a great weigh in by Friday!! I checked this morning & I really liked what I saw!! :love:

    Amanda, you are totally kicking some butt!! Keep it up girl!! I'm telling you, you're going to make that girl way before October!!

    Crystal, you hang in there. You are going through so much & I pray that you & your family have all the strength you need to get through! Wii Fit is alot of fun!! EA sports has a new game for the Wii that's a little more like working with a trainer - it's called Wii Active & it's a real tough, serious workout! It's a bit cheaper then the Fit & you don't need the balance board. Just a little heads up, that's all! I do like the weigh in portion of the Wii Fit though.

    Connie, how are things?? That's a great challenge this week! I love the push ups!! I'm totally addicted to them! I love how I feel myself getting stronger everyday by doing them & love what they do to my shoulders, back & arms! Thanks!

    Mammakisses, sounds wonderful to sleep into 8:30! I'm happy to make it to 7:00 anymore! But, I can't complain, my girls go to bed at 7 & are up at 7 am, so I really do have it "made"!! But, I can't handle it when they're up before that! I really am not a morning person, at all!! Your speed walk sounds great!! Keep it up!!!

    Mina, Laura, Shannan & others - we miss you!! Come back!!

    Have a great day girls & keep going!! :flowerforyou:

    :flowerforyou: Sandy

It's a three car, but we can't even get one car in it right now....Bob loves His tools....With all the bending, lifting, tunring, pushing and halling. figured I had a good work out and burned over 500 cal. and today my body is telling me I did....I haven't been this sore in a long while..... :sick: and I'm not even halfway done with the garage eather....So if I can force myself to move enough. I'll have another great workout to day....

    Crystal, have you heard anything about your mother yet? I hate the stress of waiting for something like that. You'er still in my Prayers Hang in there. And i do love my wii fit we have alot of fun with it...They
    have a new wii active I've been coures about. has anyone tried it yet???

    Sandy, how's your ankle healing??
