Don't worry about the numbers Dee. You have far more important things to worry about.

Prayers said for your cousin and family.

Why did the exercise thread get closed? :(

:hug: Dee - your family is in my thoughts. Don't worry about the team numbers - they can wait until you are back!

Well we worked out the pricing on the personal trainer, and it is PRICEY. We've been going back and forth about whether we can afford it. It's turned into a much deeper conversation than just the cash - a lot of heavy stuff about our health, our future, our feelings about our bodies, etc. I love that we're having these convos, but it has made this a much deeper decision! We've basically decided to hire the guy, it's all just down to when and for how often.

dixied-my thoughts and prayers to your cousin and her unborn son, so scary, hope everything is okay. You just take it easy, the numbers can wait, you need to focus on other things. all the best to you

Well Happy Friday, running late, but just wanted to say Hi, hope all is well. Just not enough hrs in my morning. Well off to work Chickies-take care

Went to the beach yesterday. It was so nice. I never get there as often as I wish in the summer. It is only about 50 mins away but there is always so much to do here. Have been doing well and the scale is back down to the 176's. Need to get lower than 175 for Monday. Plan on drinking lots of water this weekend. I have really been slacking in that area.

Dee-your family is in my thoughts and prayers.

Have a happy Saturday, Bluesers!!!

Wow it's absolutely gorgeous out today, what perfect weather. Going out for a bike ride later on. Hope everyone enjoys their weekend!

Somni - How was the bike ride?

I would have gone on one too but I had a Tri Group workout this morning which involved me walking to the train, swimming for a mile, and walking back from the train (Walk about 5 miles) then the husband wanted to walk to Starbucks so that's another 2 miles.

I'm pooped!

Sadly I'm already 500cal over my normal calorie level so even though I burned a ton my deficit is still 1000 for the day.

Hi! I'm baaack! But mail was sticking out of my mailbox because of more work being sent to us so I'm glad but dang, barely drove in the driveway and work was waving at us!! Joy!!! LOL. :rofl:

Anyway, I'm sorry but I have another gain. One day when my stress goes down ... one dayyyy. :faint:

I hope u all are ok. Dee, I'm praying for them. Tell them never give up hope that things are going to be fine. God surprises us when we least expect it. Bless her heart and all the family.

Thanks, Mary and Institches. Yes, and we did have a great time. Sore from walking, added two more days of Seaworld since we have passes, did it for the kids. They had a great time so was worth it. We saw all the shows too so was nice. Great family time, all week. Loved it. We wanna go back just to stay away from work a bit longer! But alas, no one really gets to do that for long. And we are back to dive right in! LOL. Hope you had a good week too. :)

Bye for now, Selina :hugs:

Idealmuse - not bad! Though I was having some trouble with the bike and don't know enough (yet) to diagnose problems like that, so cut short to have it looked at. It's all fixed now for the next time out though woo! Just about a month to go to your triathlon, are you excited?

Last week I was definitely part of the gain, I went on vacation and being out of my schedule threw me completely off. But I am happy to report a loss of all I gained plus some.

I was a part of that gain as well. :nono:
