Hey ladies, I lost 4lbs two weeks ago then gained it back and have lost 3 of it again. With the 3 though I lost inches in the hips and waist so that is good. Its been nonstop here for a while. I'm on spring break this week. Decided not to go anywhere and just enjoy the time at home catching up on a few things. I'm really…

So about the arm. The doc said to give it a month and if it is still being bad get an MRI, yeah. He said I could have bercitus (sp?) but with specific area pain its usually a rotator issue. I'm holding out for the just really soar. He but me on a lot of Ibuprofen and ice daily well see how it goes.

Good morning :p Okay here we go: SW 198, GW 130, CW 161 = 3 lbs loss!!! I am so happy I don't know what I did this week besides meal planning that made the difference but I haven't had a multiple pound loss in months, yeah. Have a great weigh in everyone. P.S I'm going to the doctor today about my shoulder. Here's hopping…

So I'm really agrivated with my shoulder. When I fell two weeks ago I though that I just banged myself up a bit. BUt its not really getting better. I have taking time off work to go to the doctor but I'm starting to think that I did something bad to it and need an MRI. I hope that I'll go and he'll say that its just badly…

SW 198, GW 130, CW 164= 1lbs loss I'm a little disappointed in myself. I seem to be out of sync and not getting the most out of my work outs. I'll try to focus better next week.

Hey, Not doing so well with the way in thing lately. I didn't get to it Friday and had to work all day Sat. Unusual for me being a teacher. On top of that I fell at work on Monday down three concrete steps to crash on a landing. Fortunately I managed to turn so I didn't face plant but that meant my shoulder too the brunt.…

sorry i missed the weigh in. The power was off here for 2 1/2 days due to broken branches from the snow. So I'm just going to start fresh on Monday. Have a great Holiday.

Hey, Its been an odd week. I got a call on Monday no school due to a water main break. Now we have no school today because they have to flush the system and check the water. So I'm been using the extra time to write. I'm doing well I got four chp edited yesterday and then five chp of correction typed in. I hope to do at…

I am writing a fantasy trilogy right now and I call it Raven's flight but that might change if I get it published. I will definitely keep you posted on the progress. Book one is written and in the polishing stage, book two is half written and book three is in idea/outline stage. So I have a lot to get accomplish hence that…

Hey, sorry I missed the weigh in yesterday. Life's been a bit busy here. I'm doing well with the two yoga classes and I can really see how much stronger I am getting in my upper body. In other news I have decided to take a year off of teaching to make a stab at something else. I have been working on a novel for three years…

Hi, Lots have been going on here since I turned 30 on the 7th. I have made some major changes and wanted to share them with ya'll. Change 1- I joined two different yoga classes. I have been practicing yoga for about 8 months on my own and feel that I am read y to take on a class. Also I realized that with my schedule/…

Hey ladies, Just wanted to say that today I turned 30!!! and school got canceled because of ice so I'm home for the day. Worked out this morning for a half hour and then went for a short (20min) walk with the hubby- he's crazy to want to walk when its so cold but I went with him in anticipation of birthday cake. I got a…

Hey, I'm Amanda and I started I think this time last year. I don't post often but do read your wonderful stories. I am 30 this week!!! and looking to maybe starting a family with my husband in the next year or so. So I want to be in the best physical shape possible before hand. I live in Ft Worth TX and I teach HS art. I…

Hey sorry I've been gone visiting but now I'm back So here's the damage: SW 198, GW 140, CW 170= 3lbs gain I am determined to loose the other 30 lbs by summer to reach my goal of 140lbs. So I'm starting this week looking at where I have more time to work out and getting serious about what I'm eating. No excuses about…

Hey, here we go SW198, Gw149,CW 167 = 1 lbs loss :) I finally go rid of the little bit of weight that I gained over thanks giving. Have a great weigh in.

Hey sorry I missed the weigh in it was my hubbies birthday on Saturday and Friday I got swamped with Christmas lists and to-do's. All in all not bad though I didn't gain or loose so I'm holding steady. I have gotten out of the habit of logging food and I know that is why I'm not making as much head way as I should. But…

Hey ya'll, I can't wait for next week to be here. It is the end of double choir rehearsals! The kids at school went crazy when we had freak snow in the morning yesterday (I'm in TX). They are already dreaming about Christmas break though they just got back from thanks giving. Over all things here are good. Didn't do as…

hey, So I survived Thanks giving with a 1 lbs gain. Not too bad, but I have to be more dedicated. I don't want to give up half way through the process because I'm tiered. I need to work on ways to re-energize myself and get motivated. I think I need to set some goals for myself and focus on them. I also need to sit down…

Sorry I didn't show up on Friday. My husband is out of town and my choir is having two rehearsals a week to get ready for Christmas on top of all the normal stuff. I'm excited though I only have to work today and a half day tomorrow, so that is nice. I'll check back after thanks giving.

Bad on the logging and I'm starting to see the back lash. So I'm GOING to log everything today and try to drink two water bottles of water (16-180z) instead of one. I don't think I'm hydrating enough. When to yoga class at the Y and had a different teacher, I didn't like her but my regular one will be back next week. I…

Hey ladies, The yoga retreat was fabulous!!! I have never been so relaxed and worked out at the same time. The teacher was amazing, but more than that it was really important for me to validate the things that work for me. Not to try and do what works for other people. I only have one body and I need to listen to it. Any…

Hey, Here goes: SW198, GW 140, CW 167 = 2lbs loss :) I' m going on a yoga retreat this weekend I'll post about it when I get back. Have a great weigh in.

Hey, not the best week for me. Found out I have a sinus infection and laryngitis. Doc told me to rest and not talk as much as possible. Haven't slept well, so not much energy to work out and was on T.O.M this week too. All in all though it better than it could have been. SW 198, GW 135, CW 169= 1lbs gain

Hey, so here it is a little late but worth it. SW 195, GW 135, CW 168= 2lbs loss :) I had fun at my retreat but came back with a bit of congestion/ cold. So I've been taking it easy. I expected to gain weight over the retreat but my cabin was the farthest from the main lodge and I walked instead of driving. I also did yoga…
