Hi team, like I posted last week life has been hectic but I am determined to get back on track. Somehow, I have managed to maintain my weight, (must be all the walking at work), but I know I could have been losing if I had remained focused. I need to learn to deal with the unexpected!
My youngest son is sick with the flu :( So, at 2:00am I was cleaning the carpet in his room so I am so tired right now :yawn: I might sneak in a little nap before dinner. I plan on working out after dinner as it's been awhile since I've exercised.

Mel - :congrat: on getting below 150 that is awesome!!!!!!! :cheer:

Rosa - WTG on losing 46 lbs in 4 months :cheer: That is amazing and is motivating to me.

Riddy - :bravo: on the 5k race :cheer:

Gotta run. Have a great weekend everyone :wave:

:cp: woohoooo way to go!!!!!

Congrats everyone for hanging in there! Some real progress is being made. Congratulations to Mel for reaching that milestone and going beyond!!! Here's to building on progress, one day at a time!!! :dancer:

I had such a big loss this week that I don't have high hopes for continuing success next week, but we'll see. I was at a quilting retreat since Thursday and ate a bit off, but not too bad. I did walk lots...13000 steps today.

OK, I may be nuts. I just signed up for another 5K race on Thanksgiving. What makes it nuts is that I get back from my trip to Ireland the Sunday before Thanksgiving. I'm bringing my sneakers, but not sure I'll get a run in while I'm there. Plus I will need to detox after the trip. ;) I think I'll just plan on trying to run it, but not beat myself up if I need to walk some of it.

My scale finally blipped DOWN for the week - 182.1. Phew!

Ew, narnia! Hope the household is healthy quickly!

Rwquilts - 13000 steps - awesome! That should help offset some of the off-plan-ness. :p
