    Evening black team!

    My positive for today
    is that I went down to the beach and started the swimming thing. I have learned I have alot to do in the next 6 weeks to turn that random flailing of arms and legs into actual swimming. lol I guess the real positive is that I am not going to give up.

    I'm positive that I am never going to eat this much again in 2 days. Belly Ache! I can't believe this is the way I USED to live.

    (In case you are wondering)
    A.) I'm on a mini vacation because it is our anniversary--I'm refusing to be obsessive
    B.) I'm trying to break this darn MARLA.
    C.) Lobster is oh so damn good

    That is all.

    But I am not going back to this way of life..my tum tum feels miserable.
    P.S. I'm not going to post pictures of my favorite body part. But I do have a cute tushie. HAHAH

    Good evening fellow teammates! Sounds like everyone is doing really good. I love the idea of the photos now I have to figure out what I like the best about my body.

    Lori-I like your take on the way our bodies look in clothes and you know you are absolutely right! Glad someone actually said it!! It makes sense and makes us all think a little bit differently. And your new photo is gorgeous!

    Sam-love the cake! You are very talented and if we were closer I would have you make my daughter's cake too. Her birthday is July 30th and she will be the big 5! Great bicep picture too.

    Hello to everyone else!!! My positive for today is that I am fairly healthy and so is my family and the scale is actually moving down so that makes me happy! And on another note, my cat hasn't come home. I don't know if she is dead or hurt somewhere in the woods. We are surrounded by woods. She never went far from her food bowl and she is such an attention getter. And I worry since some kids from the neighborhood walk thru our yard that she may have followed them. She is very affectionate when she wants to be. But I don't know what has happened so I guess I will worry. DH asked why I have been depressed acting and I just worry about my cat and then some other things at home. Take care everyone and you all have some nice pics!!

    Positive for the day, Successfully ended the 2009 swim season. Team placed 2nd in the championship meet and the awards picnic was a success also. Lots of fun, food and friends, who could ask for more.

    I haven't had a chance to take my body part pics yet. I will try to get it done though. I was debating what parts I like, much to my surprise I'm content with more parts than I thought! I didn't say love, but definately content and can live with them.

    I like positive week! It's great to come on here and read all the stuff that you are all proud of. I'll be back later to boast of my proud moment... too early to have one!

    Well, I do sort of have one, we've had a bunch of junk laying around that I needed to put on ebay. We are going to Disney in Septemeber and my goal was to make enough to pay for the house and the tickets. We are $150 away from my goal and have 33 items that are ending today that can still go up in price to finish it up! Wooo hooo! I think we'll make it. (Now the shipping fun begins, ugh! Luckily all my priority mail boxes arrived yesterday so I have something to put the stuff in.)

    So my advice to all my black team friends, ebay your *kitten* and make $$$$. :tongue:

    Howdy-ho neighbors--

    Curse this headache-- I'm caffeinated, watered and fed-- and yet the durn thing persists-- fudgesicles.

    Heading to work--

    Positive thing today-- yummy healthy breakfast of plain yogurt, banana, honey and a dab of kashi-crud granola-- amping up the efforts while hubs is away.

    Dummy that I am, I promised him last night that I'd take the blinkin' dog with me on my runs-- :noway: what was I thinking?

    But, I feel safer with him, so I can venture out a bit more around town with him after dark. (the bad guys don't know Bandit would take their side against me-- )

    Later, my fine team--

    My positive is that the family and I went for another walk/run down at our cemetary. It was lovely. We have a b-day party at 2 today and I know I'll have either one piece of cake or one helping of ice cream. I will wear my workout clothes though and go for a nice walk to help work off calories and escape the family drama. Two birds with one stone I tell ya. I've logged all my food, even lunch and a possible piece of cake. Have 33 calories to spare and doesn't include a side with dinner so I'd better be serious about the walk at the party.

    Enjoy the rest of your Sunday!

    Kati,

    I do my walking, running/jogging in a cemetery. No traffic and the residents don't care what I look like or smell like. :laugh:

    Good evening black team

    My postivie for the day is I was without a computer all day and when I finally got it back up and running I added all my exercise and food that I ate I was still under everything.

    I exercises 827 calories burned so that felt fabulous to know that I dont need a computer all the time to figure out what I am eating.

    Have a great night ya'll.

    Lynnie- they would have to push me out of the plane and I would probably have a heart attack. How do you go from zip line to sky dive? Isn't there something in between sweetie?

    My positive for the day- I've been Ebaying crap all week. My goal was to pay for our house and tickets for Disney in September. I almost hit my goal. I was like $80 off, so I'm not complaining too much. I boxed up 34 boxes of stuff, 17 left to go out when I get payment. It's so much work, but worth it in the long run. I made $1800 this week!

    Hello everyone! My positive for the day is my family and our friend's family went out to the lake and had a long wonderful swim and it was very pretty out today! So we got sun, fun and exercise too!!

    Another positive- I've been saying I need to get hubs on track with eating. When I took him to the doctor on Friday for his back I found out his cholesterol levels were crap. His bad cholesterol was 179 and it's supposed to be under 100. I also found out it's been that for a whole year! :noway:

    It's late and I'm tired, but I just packed his lunch (which included cleaning and cutting up carrots, celery, cucumber and watermelon), logged his foods on here and I'm taking over! It will be good for not only him but to get me back on track too!

    We're going at it together from here on out!

    well, fudgesicles--

    Waited all evening for the rain to subside so I could run-- then I laid down to put Caleb to bed and fell asleep. Awoke at 11pm to find that the work that I'd requested HAD come in, due at 10am, so had to head to work--

    BUT, I am going right now, yes at 1:37 am to do turbo jam-- it's a wee bit late to drag poor ol' Bandit out for a run--

    And I MUST exercise today-- well, yesterday-- arrgghh-- you know what I mean!

    Probably only the 20 minute one-- but we'll see--

    Nytol!

    I did the 20 minute turbo jam-- at 2:00 this morning--

    Had to do it in my bedroom--

    Onto pushups/crunches/stretching my poor ailing hip/shower and beddybye--

    Later, my good team!!:yawn:

    Good morning black team!

    Had a great weekend. Went running with my 9 yr old niece and tried to show her the ropes of running. I'm way better than I thought I was so I'm pretty proud of myself.

    Hope everyone has a great day!

    Marla you are a maniac! I don't know how you make it through the day without any sleep. Do you drink coffee all day long? I would be exhausted. Great job on the turbo jam though.
