Just a quick note to say hi to everyone and hope your day is a good one.
For everyone having troubles or are not well - healing vibes coming your way
For everyone with losses - Big congratulations to all of you
I have been OP and exercising but I feel like I have gained, but won't know til my Sunday weigh in. I hope it is just all in my head as I have been really good. Heres to keeping my fingers crossed.
Hey Blusers!
I have had a heck of a day starting at 4:00 am when I received a call that my Uncle had another stroke and was being taken to the hospital. No exercise but I fought all day to stay OP with the eating. I did walk all over the place though....sigh
Hey everyone!
Sorry I've been MIA for a couple of days. Been busy packing and preparing to move.
Eating has been OP and the exercise is coming along, I won't be able to take a bread during the weekend to make my goal for the week but that's OK.
Big to all of you still sick and/or in pain and a for everyone else.
I might not be around much for the next week or so but will do my best to pop in every once in a while to check in and catch up on news.
SCREAMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM I had a really long post and lost it. I'm too tired to do it again. I had one long day with the funeral and the meal afterwards. I just got off my feet for the first time since I got up this morning.
I weigh in tomorrow so I'm hoping all my self-denial in the food department pays off.
Have a good weekend Blue Team members and stay away from the junk.
Hi everyone!!! Big hugsssss to Rhonda, Dixied, Marianne, Idealmuse, Newshinyme, Diva, Maryshady and every Bluezer here!!!!
I am down some since first weigh in so that makes me feel good and hope it helps the team!!! Go Blue!!!
I wish each of us Good Determination! Luck isn't needed!!!
The first TBL show made me cry. Bless their hearts, some have dealt with more than I hope I ever have to in my life. Hope it goes well for them this season.
Hey guys...not sure if some of you will remember me? I've done TBL in the past...not for a couple seasons now though. I've gained about 40lbs since June of 2008 and have made up my mind to get my butt back on track! This place always helped me stay on track so I thought I would just pop in to say hi to all my old peeps I know I'm too late to sign up for the challange, but if ya'll don't mind I think I may just hop in for the chit-chat with you guys and the support I always get from this site. I've had a moment this morning where I realized I'm halfway back to gaining all the weight I lost. I don't want to go back to that place. I swore I never would and can't believe I've let myself slip this far. It's eye opening and has taught me this is gonna be a life long battle I deal with and something I'm gonna have to figure out. I now know this is going to have to be a life style change not just something I do to lose weight for the next big event. I'm ready to get back into shape though and looking forward to following your guys progress
Diva- Hey girl how the heck are ya? I've missed you so much! You were one of the people who could always make me laugh if I was having a crap day Hope all is well with you hun~
Tina! Hey girl long time no see! Sorry about the weight gain. I hate when that happens! grrrrr Time to get your butt in gear girl! hehe Are ya facebooking it? Plurking? I rarely do the myspace thing anymore. I don't know why I even keep it going really...
Things are okay I suppose, worried about Jesse's Mom and money, blah blah blah!
Just wanted to do a quick drive by and share with y'all what I stumbled upon...
Just popping in for a quick update... I'm almost over the flu. This is the longest I've been sick. Even though I couldn't exercise, I weighed in with a 4lb loss. So that's a silver lining, I guess.
I've already made some chicken breasts and veggies for dinner for the next couple of days. And I've only been drinking water so I'm off to a decent start. I just need to get to a point where I can exercise and I'll be back on track.
*Big hugs* to all those who are sick, injured, grieving or have family or friends in the hospital.

Hey girly, I pm'ed you and YES!!! I'm soooooooooooooo excited about NEW Moon! I can't freakin' wait!!!!!
Okay super busy day today - just ate a small bowl of cereal, and then I'm off to the gym in a bit. Hair appt later this morning, then errands before going out for a friend's birthday.
Here's a quote for the weekend for you all:

Tina - wow, long time, no "see"! Please do hang out with us and chat - you know the accountability (and the FUN) that these groups can provide.
Hiya, Bluesers! Tina and Selina.....so good to see some familiar faces.
Elise - glad to hear that you're starting to recover.
Iwana - how is your uncle?
I hate to be a downer, but I've not yet gotten my head back into losing this weight and exercising. I'm wearing my "fat" jeans again and I can't button them when I'm sitting down! (Well, I could, but I wouldn't be able to breath.) The headaches have returned and I just feel like crud. I have an appointment with my GYN on Monday to review my hormone therapy. I'm hoping we can tweak it and change some things. Either way, I must get myself back on-plan and working out. No more whining!
Hi everyone, just time for a quick check-in before I take my dd to a birthday party. I am still struggling with this cold and it's moved into my chest. I took yesterday off from exercising, but today I am going to do two workouts. I have already completed my cardio/ab workout and then this afternoon I am going to do the leg workout I missed yesterday.
My eating has been on plan and I am down a pound from last week. My official weigh-in isn't until Monday though.
Sorry it took me soooo long to finally post! Things just got busy and I honestly forgot. I don't get much time to myself...I have two precious little boys - 3 and 5 - and DH is out of town 4 - 5 days a week. Plus I work part-time Monday - Thursday (while my 5 yr old is at school). DH has been gone for 1 1/2 wks now, will arrive 11:30pm Mon and then out again 6:15am Tues. We can hardly wait to see him. We're hoping he'll be back before bedtime on Wed night. In the meantime I just do my best to hold everything together! Nowhere near as stressful as plenty of other gals, but it's plenty for me!
I finally read all week zero thread posts, but it's either exercise or read week 1 posts. I'm going w/exercise. Trying to make the most of my 3yr old's naptime. I'll try to post every few days. Weigh ins will probably be Sat or Sun (or else I'll forget)...this week it will be Sun since I had pizza for lunch yesterday. Need the rest of the day and night to work it off!
hey girls!! hope everyone is ready for the weigh in! my weigh is tommorow!! so today is my last chance workout! so far have done 2 workouts. gonna try to fit in one more before bed.
i ordered some extra gum from the internet! yummy. cant wait for it to come. i'm so easily influenced by biggest loser lol. i did buy strawberry flavour from the store today, but doesnt taste that great. i wish we had watermelon flavour. but we dont. but i ordered other flavours from ebay instead. like tropical. which sounds delicious.
i went to the grocery store today. (rode my bike there) and at the beginning, i put all these different chocolates in my basket. 2 terrys orange chocolates, 2 packets of kitkat fingers, 5pack wisba bar chocolates...and then later on, i was like. no , i'm doing the bl challenge, evne though will only have a piece of chocolate here and there as a treat, and work it into my calories. but something just clicked inside me, and i ended up putting everything back!
and stuck with buying things that were on my grocery list. even though terrys chocolate was on my list. i scrapped it out! haha
i did buy low fat organic peach yoghurt for dessert, so yummy!!! (Which was on my list and been craving peach yoghurt for ages)
i think its all jillian's influence, all her talk about eating healthy. organic, etc etc. been listening to her podcast everyday hehe. and watching biggest loser! biggest loser show has made a huge impact on my life and being on this challenge too
also it might have something to do with the fact i was shopping in my workout clothes lol. i rode my bike to the grocery store which is 1.6 miles from my house.
to all of you still sick and/or in pain and a 
for everyone else.
Go Blue!!!
