TAG!! This is one I need to read all the way through. Thanks song.. Janie

me too, me too!!!

"Starburts" - - *giggle* Actually, this helped too, cause now all I can think of is Burt Lancaster... :laugh: :laugh:

OK, just had to check back in and let you know that you saved me.. The Starburst in the vending machine outside my office have been calling to me for the last hour, but I got up and got another refill on my water bottle and a cup of tea. I just couldn't imagine having to log it... *SIGH* Janie

Sorry Marla - here is a big squishy hug - but not too tight (that would hurt) Great challenge Andrew - need to concentrate on water and what was that other thing.....?? :devil: Janie

Good morning all. So, I have to confess, I watched BL last night and they totally got me (I should know by now). Was crying like a baby when the two teams were driving away in the limo - especially the yellow team - so emotional.. My DH thinks I need therapy - but that is what my horse if for (if only the snow would melt)…

Thanks Marla - I never would have found it. I don't wander very far - it can be scary out there...:embarassed: :embarassed:

Totally freaks me out...

You poor dear - hope you are feeling better soon. Not fun...

HOORAY - Beans is back!!! :flowerforyou: :drinker: :flowerforyou: :drinker: No worries Beans - I'll never be able to keep up with the thread either. I will be jumping in now and then as well. Janie

Roni, Look at that picture, girl!!! You are my inspiration!! Big hugs and totally open arms for you.. ((((( HUGS ))))) Welcome back.

ps, working on an actual picture of me... I am not really a blue parakeet or a zombie cat... Although, since this is the first day back to work/school after a long Christmas break - I feel most like the zombie cat.

Good morning everyone. Just like Jeannie, I am waiting for the list (likely to come out on Weds as weights come in) to befriend the new folks, but I would be happy to accept any friend notices that come in for me. This is a great team, with much experience and great enthusiasm - just what I need to get my butt back in…

Thanks Andrew - you sweetie!! :flowerforyou: :blushing: :smooched: - Beth is a lucky girl.. Not an awesome start for the day - I overate (planning on my 30 minute swim at night) and then ended up having to clean out the coaches room instead. :grumble: :grumble: Will make up for it tomorrow - no more coaches rooms:explode:…

Thanks Lori - it is good to be back. Guess I can't complain about the snow in CT after seeing Beth's picture. Taking the kids out sledding soon. Janie

Hey gang - remember me??:blushing: :blushing: I seriously fell off the radar for a while due to a truly horrible combination of family crises and job uncertainty that left me no time to work on me. As a consequence, my ticker has gone in the wrong direction, and I need you all so much more than ever. :cry: I'm hoping you…

Keep him (and make him breakfast in the morning!!!) Robert Pattison

I'm in - big challenge for me.. I am an evening muncher, the sweeter the better. My cut off is 8 pm. Is 7:25 now and just finishing a graham cracker... Janie

I bet Arnold can make the tassels on pasties swing in different directions.. Now, that's what I'm talkin about... :laugh: :laugh:

Thanks Andrew - you are all right!!:flowerforyou: I need to completely start from zero, as muscle atrophy set in while I was recouping.. such a drag, but better than the alternative.. go go go...

Hi all, I'd still like to be in, if you will have me. It has been a challenging summer and the scale has not been kind, but I need to get back on track. Sam - apologies for the lag.. I will send you weigh in on Weds.. can't look right now - too scary.. :grumble: :noway: :cry: Janie

I'm positive that this would all be much easier if I was one of those people who lose weight when they are stressed... My true positive for today is that I have raised a child who is confident enough in herself to be able to attend a week long overnight camp where she does not know anyone, and actually look forward to it..…

Tag for later.. I do have to comment about a couple of stuff though (go figure).. Lori - I agree with Jeannie - you look fantastic, and even your husband seems to be getting some of the advantage of your healthier life style.. way to go!! Renae - I hope you are feeling better, and that your cat comes back soon - keep us…

stop smoking??

Nothing: The blinking Yoda in Marla's signature makes me smile.. oops, wrong thread..:laugh: :laugh:

note to self: do not stand between Marla and a well-deserved run - hope you got it in. I did not move in any significant way for 30 minutes yesterday, but I did go to work for a change and all the combined walking added up to at least 30 minutes - or is that cheating??? Hope to get in a ride today - not up to 30 minutes,…

Welcome Aliah!! I may be the odd one in the group, but I like fresh zuchinni sliced and steamed with just a hint of salt. The slices are also good raw in salads - kind of like cukes with a softer texture.. Yum,,, love me some farmer's markets...

Awesome idea Lynnie.. I"m in.. bobbi - so glad Jim is recovering safely - good thoughts for a quick heal beth - can't wait to see pics marla - size 8 - holy shrinkage, batgirl... tamara - half marathon - dayymmnnn girl, very impressive - you go, I know you can do it.. sam - we love you, grouchy, sad, mad, channeling…

Hey gang, Thank God Marla defined fartleks - I had all sorts of mental images floating around in my head.. Sounds like everyone is doing a great job.. hope to be back in the losing column soon. Good just to be able to move again. Increasing my swimming and horseback riding time, but still hesitant to get on the cardio…

Aww Jeannie - what's wrong? Janie
