Hey everyone! Sorry I haven't been around much. As a family, we have had a very busy 2 weeks. I have been working hard to help with my one son's Cub Scout Pack's float for our towns Halloween Parade that was last night, I also organized all the local Brownie troops to walk together, coordinating 4 troops planning and helping to make costumes and learning scouting songs so the girls were entertained. It's over now... so today I can breath a little bit... but TOM showed up today so not breating too easily.

Hope everyone has had a great week. Going to try to read this thread while my kiddos work on some school work.

Fawn - I can imagine how busy Halloween is with two kids. There is probably a lot of excitement in your house.


Yesterday we had an event at the school I work at so instead of sitting on my couch Friday night I was up walking/running around. I had a little over 21000 steps which is insane to me since I usually average 15000.

I am down a lot this week. I had been eating poorly so eating well this week resulted in water weight plus some to come off. The scale is down 3.6 pounds which I am happy with.

The gym teacher at the school I work at is starting to run a circuit Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. I really want to go but I am trying to figure out how to fit in a dog walk also. But all the teachers that have been going say it has been awesome.

Evening all,

It has been a busy last 4 days. I had hoped to get back here sooner. I am here, and reading everything. I promise I will do better about posting next week.

I'm working at home this weekend, trying to catch up on my 300+ emails from vacation (ugh) and I need to put them behind me so I can be a good contributor here.

Right now I just want to shout out "Stay Strong" and "Keep moving!" We can do this!

Don't forget to weigh in!

Hi All
It's been a busy week here so I'm behind on everything. Congratulations to Nixmom and all the other losers. I had a 2 lb loss this week, it was more earlier in the week but I accidentally ate something with wheat in it. I got so bloated and it's taken a while to get over it. A reminder to be more careful.
Have a great rest of the weekend everyone
Bette
