I hope you got to come home yesterday! I hope everything is still going really well for you! I can't wait to hear all about everything and see more pictures of that precious sweet thing, Logan! Today, I plan to walk 10 miles. Can I? I think I can. I think I can...I think I can! It may take me the better part of 3 hours to…

Logan Marshall Barlow is a very handsome little baby boy! I'm so excited for you! Congratulations!!!!! I'm about to be off to learn & burn! Won't be long before you are out there joining me! :)

I hope everything is going well for you! And by now, Congratulations are in order!!! ♥♥♥

I'm so excited!!! I can't wait to see and hear all the details about little Rocco! I can't believe it's already time for him to be born! I hope your pain has subsided and you can be ready to go in and enjoy your little bundle of joy! And you know what? You know that the surgery is going to be a piece of cake for you! You…

Dang, but I suppose that does make sense. I actually can't take meds for swelling because they cause me to swell instead of getting rid of it. I can take this one pill called Bumex but it works different. I take them when I've eaten way too much salt and I can tell when I need one. otherwise I just have to watch my sodium.…

Oh No! That sounds excruciating! And to not be able to do anything about it would drive me crazy! I'm surprised she isn't talking about doing something sooner. Is there not a medicine they could give you for the fluid build up? But sweet baby Rocco is going to be so worth it all isn't he? 4 more days and you'll be done!…

Oh wow! I thought my mileage on my ticker was off so I went into my Cardio trainer to check it out. Sure enough I was off by 25 miles...So I've reached my March goal...now on to April!!! I really need to go buy my charms...I never got February's and now I need March's too. I think maybe I'm going to forgo the 5 lbs lost…

OMG you will have your baby in less than 1 week! It's here...Are you ready? :) I'm so excited for you! Rocco is gonna be soooo cute! I'm just checking in with my weigh in stats. I was down 5.5 more lbs for a total of 24.5! In 8 weeks. I'll certainly take it. I'm so close to ONEderland I can't stand it! I will get there.…

Each Saturday I make a pound of dried beans and I bring 1 cup of beans everyday to eat. It's full of protein and fiber. I usually bring fruit to supplement that. Also, sliced turkey sausage is GREAT to add to the beans too! YUM! I need to find the buffalo chicken wrap recipe...that's sounding yummy to me!

If you are doing the same exercises and eating, then I hate to say you will have to up your exercise. Your body has gotten used to what you are doing. Try mixing up your routines where you aren't doing the same thing over and over each day. Plus add an extra walk into your day also. Burn MORE calories. That's what is…

Just had my "Anthony" Workout. MAN, he is a killer trainer. He's not mean, he just guilts me into doing everything he says...LOL Today was work on arms day. I had to do these things where I got in push up stance and pulled each leg up and twisted...then I had to do mountain climbers, and then burpees...I call those throw…

Did 6 miles this morning. I jogged and walked...about half and half...did it in 90 minutes...4 mph!!! I have definitely improved! My first 3 miles were done in 45 minutes...not my best ever time, but pretty danged good if I do say so myself! Hope you are doing good today. The heat is getting pretty intense outside, stay…

Oh, Babyland General is where the original Cabbage Patch Kids (They were called "Little People" back then) come from. You can still buy the babies with cloth faces (instead of the prepackaged ones in the stores now with the vinyl faces). And you can get them "born" from the "Mother Cabbage". It was soooooo cute. We told…

I walked 6 miles today. I was going to try to go 2 more, but I was really tired. I think maybe I've done too much lately. I'm up to 63 miles now. so I'm not too far away from my 3rd 100 miles. 300 miles since December 29, 2010 WOW...that's a lot of miles isn't it? I'm thinking tomorrow will be a rest day, other than…

Weight loss is continuing! 23 lbs down now! I love it! I never ever thought I'd be able to lose weight like this. This morning's weight was 212.5. I'm hoping that tomorrow it will be even more down. It usually drops right after I put in a weight on here! LOL I am surprised that my eating has been spot on this week too. I…

I just walked 8.2 miles again today! My son and his girlfriend went with me and Lettie. So we walked on my favorite part of the trail. It was supposed to be cold and cloudy today but it turned out to be a beautiful sunny day of 67 degrees! I have a mouth full of fever blisters again and they hurt this time. I put my…

I hear you on making big ole babies! Me too! We thought Lettie was gonna be a 9 lb + baby but she came out 7 lbs 15 oz. She was 10 days early but I was 7 days early with Rilo and he was 9 lbs even. Still I guess 8 lbs for a 16 year old was pretty good sized huh? LOL I like the name Wyatt though. Family names are only good…

I did it! I walked 8.25 miles in 2 hours 22 minutes. I jogged some but didn't over do. I averaged almost 4 mph...not quite, but almost! I burned 1448 calories too. Then I went to the tanning bed and the man put me in the High pressure bed because it gets so hot, he knew I needed it! (you usually have to pay extra to get in…

Hope you are doing ok Kat. I know it's hard to just get on here now. It's so close to time isn't it? Just checking in with my weight for today. I was 213.5 :) 14 more lbs and I can say good bye to the 200s!!!!!! I would love to be able to do that in the next 4 weeks (what I have left of Scale Back Alabama) My plan to day…

I just officially went and weighed in. Down 1 lb. Considering I didn't think I had lost at all, and possibly was up a pound, I will TAKE IT!!! YAY ME! Hope you are feeling good today! :)

I"m having 1 cup of brown rice, and 1 cup of great northern beans. I'll have a wonderful fruit salad for afternoon snack too! YUM!

Just think...you only have what, 3 more Mondays? WOW Now, quit stressing about weight! It will come off, and you know it will. Have you given any more thought to breastfeeding? I know you weren't sure...but I swear that is what helped me melt off my weight after I had my son. And I mean it literally melted off of me. Could…

Wow! I didn't realize your sister in law is 41 years old...There is a reason God made it where people usually have babies when they are young! A guy I work with, his wife was 43 when their last one was born...he was a surprise too... my coworker was 46...WOW I was 42 when Lettie was born. It's been rough on me. I can't…

Yes girl! You must get your sis to let you borrow one of those items...at least an iPod touch! Anything to stay connected while you are in there! I figured it is bothering you to sit at the computer. It bothers me and I'm not preggo! I think I have come up with a plan to get my exercising in. Tonight I'm going to do my…

I hope everything is ok with you! It's been 2 days since anyone posted anything! I think my weight loss is slowing down. I haven't lost any weight in 4 days. LOLOL And now, I'm having the shin problem and I'm going to have to stop walking for a few days. I will have to go to the gym and do the bike and elliptical. But I…

Oh yes, I love good trainer/client stories. I hope it was something good and not bad! I just went and weighed. down 6 more lbs! 18 total now in 5 weeks! Woooo Hooooo. My friend that runs the wellness center said they were going to use me as their "story" loser! LOL I"m not sure if anyone else is as gung ho about it as I am…

I just found out my niece is having a little baby boy in July! It's her second boy also! We will now have 6 great-grandkids on my hubby's side! His parents are only 68 & 70...WOW! My parent's only have Lettie. They are 66 & 68. I remember my grandparents were that old when I was born, I think they were anyway! LOL really…

Excellent job! 2 miles is a long way! And EXCELLENT on eating the veggies for dinner. A sweet potato is one of the best things ever to eat. I need to get me some to bake in the oven just to have on hand. My maw maw used to always have them in the oven when we went to her house! I love them. I can't believe I actually…

Good doable goals! And just think...you only have 4 more weeks...so the most you will gain is 8 more lbs! ;) then it's all downhill from there! ♥ ya! I'm very motivated by the MFP thing telling me that in 5 weeks I could weigh 199.1. I'm shooting for it! I also realized that if I lost 18 lbs every month, that by May I will…

I did it! I did 5 miles today. My son, Riley went with me also so I didn't have to deal with Lettie by myself. He never complained so I guess it was ok for him to walk that far...he's young and skinny so I can see how it was easy for him. Plus he trains every day for football. the weather today is absolutely beautiful. I…
