ericsmommy - you are doing great! I can't wait to see size 14's again.

sassykay - I love this time of year. Why not find a local park with some walking trails and hit them? It's great for exercise!

Megan - We'll be camping this summer and I plan on staying OP for that too! Many veggies don't need to be refrigerated. If you buy some squash or zuchinni, you can slice it up, throw it in some foil, salt and pepper and grill it. It tastes wonderful and best of all won't take up any of the precious cooler space! You mentioned hot dogs, why not buy some of the Healthy Choice ones. They aren't all that bad. :)

Woohoo! Congrats Blue Team on another victory this week, I am very proiud of everyone. And thanks for your nice thoughts on my half marathon.

SassyKay, I just started running last fall, so this is definitely a new thing for me - but something about it really clicked for me in a way no other exercise has in the past. I really have developed almost an addiction to it - if I can't run for a few days, I get almost twitchy!

And as to the bazoombas, I am a big chested gal myself, and one of the things that really propelled me on my path to becoming a runner was finding the GREATEST sports bra in the world for us larger gals. It's made by Enell, and it is a bit pricey, but worth every penny to me (even though I'm on my fourth size now - I'm still not exactly small on top, but I am a heck of a lot smaller than I used to be). So, if you want to try running, or any other activity that causes bounce, I sooooo recommend trying it.

I am so excited that l had to share,
between sugar busters and curves l am doing and feeling great.

WOOOOHOOOOO EricsMom WTG!!!:carrot:

I'm feeling a lil' bit better today. Still fat, but I am sticking with the clean eating and exercising and I have changed my goal. Gave myself more time, but want to lose an additional 15 so..... Maybe a year from now I'll be ther! Finger's crossed.

ericsmommy - awesome job!

Diva - I'm glad that you're feeling better. Sometimes, weight loss takes longer than we wanted, but I'm sure it'll be worth it in the end.

Good morning ladies! How is everyone been doing this week? I don't know if it's the heat or what but exercise is just not happening for me over here. I have been out in the yard doing yard work but nothing that is working up sweat. I have to get my butt moving over here. Not much going on here though....just trying to stay cool and get my neverending laundry done. Today we may go to my MIL for a swim and then tonight is my sons last baseball game of the season. I am keeping fingers crossed that they pull out a win...I think they have lost the last 4 or 5 games. Other then that though not much shakin over here. This weekend I have my grandfathers surprise
70th birthday party and then Sunday we are going out of the boat for Father's Day. It is supposed to be a hot one this weekend so being near water will be nice. I am hoping that next week I can get on a regular workout schedule and until then at least get in a few walks. I need a kick in the butt I think! Well that is about it for me ladies! Hope you all have a fantastic day!

Mo- You rock girl! Keep up the good work!

Diva- I am so glad your feeling better. I know this can be so overwhelming and frustrating but were here for you and we know you can do this. Keep your head up hun!

Rachel- When I run I feel the same way....I was for doing the couch to 5k last year....I should start that up again! It kept me from getting bored with my workouts! Keep up your good work!

Chellez- How are things going?

Have a good one ladies!

Took another walk to the grocerie store today to get some more strawberries and bananas(we were out of bananas this morning and the kids were looking for their banana with breakfast) also had to get the cats some food. I picked up some yogurt to go with the strawberries (vanilla yogurt and strawberries are better than ice cream). DD3 asked for kiwis and of course I could not say no (I think they are learning that if they ask for fruit mom says yes but if they ask for cookies mom says no....they have been asking for extra fruit lately;) ). I hope Saturday to get to walk accross town to the used book store about 1 1/2 -2 hours there then stop off at the park on the way back for the kids to play and have a picnic lunch. we may also walk back home through our other park and fgeed the ducks and check out the botanical gardens. Now that I have plans it will probably rain it always happens when we try to make plans to go to the park:dizzy:

I will probably not have a loss this week cause I am still fighting to get back on plan. I hope next week to get down again.

Helllooooo!

I see we rocked this week, very good!

I've really had a good week. I switched from my beloved pedometer to a running watch thingie and it keeps me moving toward my hours of exer. Now instead of steps I watch time, time in different heart rate zones, and CALORIES burned! Yay.

In between work trips last week I started yoga/pilates ("core") class Mon-Wed and on Sat I am doing water aerobics at the community college. I decided I'm so successful when I take classes, why not try actual exer classes. Seems to be working for me, we'll see how it goes. One thing I'm good at is being a student! :)

Windycitychick, where do you get that Bazoomba Bra and which model is it? I'm hoping you get it on-line, so I can get one, too.

I was sorry to see we lost candle last week. Doggone it. She had done really well last time around. Well, the good news is we'll prob be doing this again.

Hey, MO!!! Wow. What great figures and what a great new figure you've got going on!

Going to clean my office now...de-cluttering really inspires the rest of my life, even weight loss and healthy choices.

Happy Friday!
choosie.

Hi Choosewell, just google Enell, and you'll find a number of places that sell this amazing bra, it is most definitely available online. The sizing is different, it runs from 0 to 8, I think, so you need to look carefully at the measurement chart.

Hope everyone is having a great week!

Hello all! I know I'm not much of a poster, and I hate the fact I don't post much. I tried to get on this week, but life wouldn't let me. I had to go to the doctors a few times this week and eventually had to get a cyst removed. I'm ok though. But I did gain weight and I feel bad since last week I did such a great job.

I hope everyone has a great Friday!

sorry ladies.... I have to take a freebie week this week! I did so horrible this weigh in! :mad:

It's all right chellez. No need to apologize, you already do so much for our team anyway.

I really need to kick Daniel in the butt and have him help on groceries! I was eating lots of fast food last week and I gained 2.6 lbs back! So I marched myself down to Wal Mart and bought about 12 smart ones and a big ol bag of salad... I'm determined to get in my wedding dress! ;)
