    Thanks for all the well wished my MFP friends! I had so much fun and all I can think about is "when can I do it again?" lol I really feel like a different person then I was before this journey began and I feel lucky to have the support of so many wonderful people. MFP is a great site and the MFP community is a great one, but I am so glad that I am a part of this team. Your like a second family to Beth and I and we love you guys! lol

    Thought I would throw up a pic and a vid for my non facebook fitness pals.

    Way to go Andrew!!!

    So I am back from my bike ride! It was hot but it felt dry. So it wasn't so bad. Parts of the trail felt hotter then other parts but I made sure I brought a bottle of water and a bottle of what M likes to call aggergrade(gaterade)!:laugh: :laugh: Rode my little heart out 16 miles in 90 minutes. I passed a family walking 3 times!:bigsmile:

    Then I bummed myself out and stepped on the scale when I got home and it was the same weight as it was when I left.:grumble: :grumble: I know that my muscles need to relax but I burned at least 1226 calories!

    I lowered my calorie intake to lose 1.5 pounds a week since I am burning all these calories I haven't been able to come close to eating even half of them so we shall see what that does to my body!

    Gonna go watch frosty the snowman with M!! Yes I know weird!but she wouldn't watch anything else!

    honey come here............a bit closer......WHACK upside the head!!!!!!!

    You have got to know that you retain fluid when you work out like that. Like when I walk, my wedding rings get super tight and if my shows leave marks if I work out more than 20 minutes. Your muscles swell up, just like when you hurt something........because you are tearing muscle.

    I hope I explained well...........I am not good with the medical stuff.

    I bet if you weigh tomorrow morning you will be down a pound!!

    Man, I still cant believe you rode 90 in this heat. I walked 35 and was dripping buckets when I got back home!!

    Andrew - Happy Father's Day! And way to go on the 5K! P.S. Your boys are adorable!

    Congrats to all you crazy-calorie-burning people! Sometimes I get tired just reading the thread!

    Dave is changing my oil now and then we're going to Wal*Mart to look at bikes. He said they have a purple one. :love: I've been reading about all you "bikers" and I really want to ride. I haven't ridden a bike in probably 15 years.

    Harley didn't sleep well last night. She woke up at least every half hour and she was warm. She got warmer as the night went on until at 3:30am she was at 104. I know 101 is normal but I didn't know how high is dangerously high so I called the emergency doctor call line and he said give her baby Tylenol and fluids. We had her sleep with us the rest of the night and today she's been between 99 and 101.

    Happy Father's Day and Happy Sunday everyone! I hope you all are having a great day. We slept in this morning and went to get our daughter and we all spent the early part of the evening cutting limbs and weeding the flower beds. In 2 hours I burned 582 calories weeding them. After supper I am going to get my walk in. I'm hoping it cools down some. I have been resting for about an hour and my shirt still hasn't dried yet! It is so hot and humid out there and not too sure what the actual temperature is. I will catch you all later!

    Andrew-Congrats on your 5K!!

    Lori-I hope you find a bike that you like. Do you know I just realized that the bike I picked out for myself that I have had for a few years is a man's bike? But it's a nice one anyway!

    Lori-It's awesome that you hit your 5000 calories burned mark! Congrats to you girl! You are my hero! I set mine up for like 3 20 minutes sessions a week which isn't very many calories and I have been blowing them away but nothing like how you have done! Great job lady!

    Yeah right the last time I went with out my scale I gained 2 pounds! I am learning that what the scale says is only important on wednesdays!:laugh: :wink: :laugh:

    I have ate 426 of my exercise calories and I am eating dessert so yeah I think I might be ok. Dinner was a bit much but it was good and we used a pepper from M's garden. She has a pepper and 2 cucumbers and 2 cantaloupes! I'm so proud of her.

    Sam-way to go on your bike ride! That is soooo totally awesome!! There's no wonder you are looking so great! You are a great team leader and I think you are doing great without your scale! Way to go girl!

    April-Everyone on our team is so amazing and I love how they keep everyone's motivation up and going. It's also great that you have done so well without Donuts. I love Krispy Kreme's glazed donuts and sometimes the white powdered donuts but I do try to stay away from them myself. I think they are the devil! :devil:

    Have a great evening ya'll! I gotta clean up the kitchen since supper is over and get my butt outside and walk walk walk!!!!!

    Quick check in, guys. Still feeling very cruddy. Didn't work out at all this weekend, and I had given myself permission to eat all I wanted. However, not feeling well so that didn't happen.

    Andrew, so proud of you. You look great. The boys are adorable, you two made perty babies!

    Lori, you are a machine! Sam, you too.

    April, thanks for coming out today --sorry I was a lousy hostess.
