Ha ha! Thanks ladies :love: Debbie - what if you put your glasses on after your scale is set with your weight? That's what I do with my camera....I learned the hard way that it weighs almost a lb, so I step on the scale and once my weight is set, then I pick up the camera, zoom in and snap the picture.

I apologize for the blurriness and baby hand...I tried to snap it quick before Redmond snatched up the piece of paper :wink: Down 1lb from last week. Pretty freaking happy about that considering I haven't worked out due to this sickness/uckiness I'm STILL dealing with :grumble:

Bump! See ya'll in the morning!

Hope everything is okay. Keep checking in with us!

Good: Took 2 walks today (one was to Starbucks :bigsmile: ), had a salad for lunch and dinner snacked minimally and am under calories. Bad: Still haven't gotten back into Turbo Fire or C25k (and my 5k is only a little more than a month away :ohwell: ), my water intake still isn't where it needs to be and the scale is NOT…

I also had pancakes this morning :laugh: And Amy - I freaking LOVE fried pickles!!!! :tongue: The good: Went on a nice, long walk today with the fam The bad: I'm under calories, but not eating like I should and definitely not drinking water like I should. Oh, and that walk I mentioned? Yeah, that was to get frozen custard…

I'm not sure where you're located, but a lot of grocery stores carry them - they're with the chocolate chips. Both Meijer and Wegmans has them and Wal-Mart has them, but only seasonaly I believe.

The Good: Went out and went hiking for about 2 hours. Pretty hilly/steep terrain. It was awesome! :bigsmile: The Bad: Remembered my chest strap, but once we got the the State Park I realized I forgot my HRM watch. D'oh! :noway: The Ugly: Went out to dinner with hubby and shared a (rather large) piece of cheesecake…

You're right, if you stay away from carbs or do low-carb, then they aren't for you :smile: Personally, I love my carbs and am just fine with them. Especially when they taste this good! :laugh:

Forgot to post yesterday's choices: Good: Went to the grocery store and passed by every. single. sample. And they were EVERYWHERE! Seriously, everywhere. But, I just kept on walking. Bad: That walking was the only exercise I got in for the day. I kept on putting off taking a walk with the boy and dog so it never happened.

You're probably right Katie....the funny thing is, the newborn was the reason why I signed up for it!!! :laugh:

Hi all! Just wanted to pop in and say hi. I've been out of commission for the past few days, both my son and I have been sick so I've been on the mend and taking care of him. Hoping to be back at it this weekend! You're all doing great!!!

Anne - I love the idea of Fly Lady - in fact, I signed up for her emails probably about 8-9 months ago, not too long after Redmond was born. Pretty sure I never opened any of those emails though.....maybe I should start. :laugh:

Awesome willpower Katie!!! :drinker: :drinker:

Choices for today: The good: As I've complained about already, both my son and I have been sick this week. His sleeping (especially naps) have SUCKED! Today, he fell asleep on my lap and instead of moving him to his crib I kept him on my lap to see if he would sleep longer. I got three hours out of him! (and a full bladder…

It's crazy....I'm still in disbelief. I've never in my adult life weighed in the 160's. It's also crazy how long I've "known" you (and Jessica!).....It's coming up on 2 years I believe! :drinker: And, are you in cahoots with my husband? :huh: I still have some poundage to go before I get knocked up and gain it all back…

I have a big, dopey Goldendoodle :bigsmile: And no whiskey :sad:

I forgot to add in my choices for the day - Wednesday is my high calorie zig-zagging day so it's normally full of mediocre/bad choices purposely (I kind of use it as my "cheat" day and give into any cravings I've had throughout the week). I feel like absolute crap today and all I wanted was a nasty (but oh-so-tasty) frozen…

I managed to break into the 160's too!!!! Last Thursday I actually weighed .4 lbs less than what I weighed in today, but I ain't mad about it. :smokin: I feel like absolute crap today - I got spicy Thai food for lunch hoping to clear my sinuses, but all it did was char the inside of my mouth :ohwell:. Took Redmond to the…

Not quite as low as I saw last Thursday, but I'll take it!!!

[quote Two people really stand out for the exercise challenge.....and, they are......Cathy and Sara. They went above and beyond in regards to exercise. I am going to give Cathy a 0.5 lb. advantage for tomorrow and Sara a 0.25 lb. advantage. :flowerforyou: You girls earned it!! :wink: [/quote] Sa-weet! What a pleasant…

Bump-a-roo!

My weekend wasn't the best.....did good Friday and Saturday during the day.....went out to dinner Saturday night. Kept track of my calories and they were high, but that was okay because it was one of my high zig-zag days. Redmond (my 10 month old) woke up Saturday morning with a cough and now officially has his first cold…

Or kickboxing! I burn the most calories doing Turbo Fire, which really is just fancified kickboxing. And, I think you can get one pieces with a little hole, if you know what I mean.....:huh:

Uh, forgive my stupidness, but what does CMA stand for? I don't think you mean Certified Medical Assistant.......:huh:

I'm definitely pushing myself to do the workouts - I just get bored doing the same thing every week. I realize that it's not exactly the same, but pretty much. I'm just bored with it I guess - I need a little bit more variety in my life! This is why I could never get past like day 5 of the 30 Day Shred! :laugh:

Wednesday: 76 minutes/558 calories Thursday: 92 minutes/773 calories Total: 168/180 minutes and 1331/1800 calories Debbie - not sure you can turn off your exercise calories in your food diary. You would just have to be conscious of how many calories you're given before exercise and just not eat any extras.
