hey gals! sorry i haven't checked in this week, i've come down with the most horrible cold. Still coughing my head off! I stayed in bed for three days. Though I'm up and about now, I'm not in the mood for much. I haven't exercised this week or kept my food log. Though I can tell you that i've had CRACKERS (white stuff); Chicken NOODLE soup (white stuff); Chicken and RICE soup (white stuff). I weighed in this morning and nothing gained! probably due to the low calorie intake even though i've been eating a WHITE STUFF! I hope to do better next week once i've recovered from this cold. Best wishes to everyone.

Hope you feel 100% real soon seaurchin! :)
Went to work out last night and found a huge rip on the side of my running shoe. Must buy some new ones today!

Morning everyone or afternoon really. I was so tired from my week I stayed in bed until 11am. Was awake early but kept falling back asleep. I think my body needed it.

I've had a few good workouts and going again today I think and I kept away from the scales so I wouldn't sabatouge my mood or my workouts.

Skittlesfirehawk great job on the water aerobics there great for you. Glad your already seeing an improvement.

abetterme some days are just like that and your body needs the extra fuel don't beat yourself up. Hope the ankles feel better. Hope you find some shoes you like that are super comfortable.

BigChiefHoho hope you and the family feel better soon. Don't feel bad your eating has been good so you will be fine. You'll be stronger again soon.

Robot put it this way if I saw 180 on the scale tomorrow I'd be happy:). Really though I know how your feeling just remember your doing something about it. Even though the scale isn't cooperating right now your body is changing. Birthday cake is a treat and deserved as well as a part of life and olive oil has good benefits for the body. You've done nothing wrong.

seaurchin feel better soon a cold can take a ton out of you so as you increase your strength the scale will move. You did great maintaining though. Sadly the white stuff is all I eat.

I have really not had a good week, I certainly hope I can turn this around this week. I have been so down in the dumps and I have allowed it to control my life this week. Hopefully I can turn it around, starting today.

Thanks for the good wishes, BigMid. Glad you've been able to get in your workouts this week, and I hope you're rewarded on the scale today!

The kids are all feeling better, but my sickness took a turn for the worse yesterday. I was really dizzy and nauseous, with the result that I could barely eat anything. So I've got a FANTASTIC weight this morning (down 4.2 pounds! woohoo!). I'm sure a big part of the loss was from being totally 'empty' from yesterday, so I'll be surprised if I lose anything next week.

Hope everyone has a good day today. Happy Mother's Day to all you moms. My weigh-in wasn't too good but I'm pretty sure it's water weight. Has to be. I've been so good.:/ next week should be better.
Have a great day!
