August !!! Lets get some new members and get it going again!

hey hey hey! I took today off, colored my hair this morning instead of working out. Then work, then tanned, then came home and cooked dinner. Well, cooked DH's dinner. My son and I had leftovers. We split the steak that was left from last night, and split the chuckwagon mac that was left from the day before that. Now, I'm wasting time on here for a bit, then am going to lay down and snooze. I'm tuckered, and I didn't have that hard of a day.

Jenny, your boy sounds so cute. I remember when mine was 7. Now he's 15. And learning to drive:noway: :noway:

Laura, when you mentioned the bear in your neighborhood, all I could think of was my DH talking to the kids, quoting (misquoting) Dwight from the office-- "Battlestar Gallactica beats brown bears". lol

Connie, I can't imagine school starting so early. Our kids don't start until September 8. They are going to have a rough time going back, since we are going on a Disney cruise the week before. We dock on the 5th, fly to Detroit that same day, then drive back home on the 6th. Poor poor kids, life of leisure then... SMACK... get up early and go to school.

Good morning all! I leave tomorrow! I can't believe I ate 2 swiss rolls, a brownie and a can of mountian dew last night :blushing: :noway:

Today is a new day though! I will work off the extra calories today!!

Laura: I hope the bear leaves so that you can go outside! I would be scared.

Wishing you all energy to burn :flowerforyou:

buh bye for now!!!!!!!!

I managed to complete c25k week 4 run today. I'm still gonna repeat it over, just to get more comfortable with it, but I did it today! No quitting early!

today has been a great day... I started early with a 3 mile power walk and then almost an hr. aerobics, and then finished cleaning the house.... I think its ok to count cleaning as exercising.....AW I've been moving all day,... and even stayed under my calories. to bad everyday can't be more like today......I had to make up for the last 2 days of doing hardly nothing....And tomorrow I have meetings all day too,to prepare for the first day of school next week...maybe I'll have time to squeeze something in before bed....
It sounds like everyone is having a great week...lets keep it up...and keep moving...

Crystal good luck on the car search.....I hate car shopping...

Well I have 30 mins before bed I think I need a nice walk.. have a great day tomorrow and keep moving....

Hello ladies!
Well i completely fell off the wagon and i am trying to get back on! I have eaten bad 5 days this week! :frown: and i havent worked out since last week! Mostly because ive been staying at my parents to house sit while theyre on vacation. But it has completely thrown me off my routine! Doesnt it suck when the smallest change throws your life off completely! They get back on Saturday so hopefully i can start next week where i left off! :grumble:

Yay you guys! I didn't do a lick of exercise today. Worked this morning, and was wearing a dress, so I spent extra time in the shower shaving my legs. Evidently it had been a while, since when I wore a dress on Monday, I could see the sun glinting off my no-longer-prickly-stubble. Until then, I didn't think my legs were that bad :laugh:

Left work a little after noon (only half days on Thursday) and picked my son up from drivers ed. He wanted Pizza Hut for lunch, since he had to drive for class at 2. I was VERY good, and ordered the all you can eat soup, salad, and breadsticks. I had the tomato basil soup, the garden side salad, and got plain breadsticks. And, I only ate one of the breadsticks! My entire lunch was 410 calories.

Then, dropped son off to do his driving time, and met up with DH to go to court. We went last month, because DH's ex wanted custody of their oldest (they have 3 together). Last year she tried to get custody of all 3, this year, only the one. Whatever. Anyways, she didn't get custody, but then she objected to the high school he was going to be enrolled in (only one in the district), so we had to go to court over that today. As well as the fact that she refused to sign the permission paper for us to take the kids out of the country when we go on the cruise. Now, mind you, she did sign for us to get the kids passports in June, so it was transparent that she was refusing because the custody thing didn't go her way. Lucky for us, everything went our way in court. I think she's taken us to court every summer for the past 4 years, and she hasn't won yet. You'd think she'd learn by now... Ugh.

After court, picked up son from his driving time and dropped him at the library. Then I went shopping. Came home, and DH was making supper, isn't that sweet? We had lasagna, cheesy garlic bread, and cheesy mixed veggies. Yeah, a lot of cheese, I can feel my arteries clogging now, but I didn't have to cook a thing!

Tomorrow, I plan on getting up early to do c25k again. Before it gets too hot. And before the weather changes, since there's supposed to be thunderstorms all weekend. Speaking of weekend, we leave Saturday morning for Detroit, going to see the ACDC concert on Sunday! Happy birthday gift to DH. So, if I'm not around, that would be why... Have a good one, if I don't pop on before we go (yeah, what are the odds?:laugh: )

OMG girls. I cannot do any more daquiris or tequila shots!!! :sick: I have went thousands over my calories the last few days!!! I am still counting my food and drinks though. SOOO I think I am still on the right track

Woohoo I dropped to 159.5. I was so motivated today that I want for a long swim and did a interval training video. I feel great.

Hope you girls had a great weight in too!

hey ladies!!

busy weekend But I was fairly well behaved!!! hahaha:laugh: I won't be on probably too much tomorrow but be back on with "bells on my toes" ( that way if you can't hear the bells you know that I did WAYYYY tooo much cardio and call 911.....hmmmmm)

hey did any of you girls see the new BL trailers for this season!!! THeya re giving that sweet "little" boy a second chance!! He lost alot (and mainly on his own at home thanks to his friend wanting out of the ranch basically) but he still has soooo much more to lose!! I am pumped for this season!!! I am going to have to dust off my I LOVE BOB t shirt and get out the wet wipes to wipe up the drool!!! hahaah well anyways....hahah on that note and lovely picture of bob harper in everyones head I will say GOODNIGHT!!!!!!!
