Good morning August!
LTTG - That is the craziest looking turkey I have ever seen, is he on speed? LOL It's true the IL's are dying to see dd, they haven't seen her since February and even then it wasn't for terribly long. I could probably go hiking in the woods for days and they won't even care, well now i guess I have to redo my goal, lol.
Sunny Gee - Welcome! Wow, 40lbs, that's a huge milestone, congrats in advance.
Chunksoflove - your username makes me happy and best way to start the month, easy, even if it's only the first 2hrs, they all count!
Jacque - ok, so I looked at your bikini pics again and I just can't see anything I would label as "fat," belly or otherwise, wow you're looking good! But I totally understand we all have our things we want to fix, loving the goals btw, I was wondering what you were gonna do now that the weights mostly finished.
Merose - It seems like yesterday when you hit 186 and now 181! Holy girl, you're melting!
Susie - I was thinking last night, is it possible to throw out the undesirable food you have around? It might help to not make it suck a struggle if it's not there. Just a thought I had last night before bed, lol, trying to figure this out is keeping me up!!!
Delphi - Thanks hun, it's being downloaded as we speak! You're wicked, can't wait. I had a feeling TOM was heading your way, he left here a few days ago and said he was heading to TN, then off to Indiana to see Sandye. Can you slash his tires maybe?
Ang - LOL, run them over!! That's fantastic. Amen sister!
Cmo4 - Can you also add to your lecture why taking progress pictures are so important? That would be great. Good luck on the shoes, nothing better than a good pair, especially with all your running you're doing now, cuz you're a runner now, sounds awesome doesn't it. You can awe ppl at parties now just throwing that out there.
Shrinking - Delphi and Cmo4 are starting C25K on Monday so you'll have some good support there if you want to give it a go. And no worries we like TMI, it's what we're all about, I had one like that a few months ago when I thought I was gonna pass out for a week, they are brutal. But it's a good way to flush out like 5 lbs though.
Darby - Congrats on the inches, it's so true, whatever way we can find extra motivation, be in clothes that fit, measurements, every bit helps!
MsP- Congrats on last month my the way, I think your vacation workout was the most awe inspiring thing, those 140's will be yours so soon, you're gonna have tell us what it looks like down there, never see 140 country, I bet it's beautiful this time of year.
Ladyfyre - The new job should definitely help with setting a routine for sure. That structure should really help if you use it to your advantage, good luck!
loriehohlf - Wow, 79lbs, that's incredible! Glad to have you aboard.
Jeweliek - Are you doing the C25K too or are you already a running machine?
Heather - Welcome back again, this month for sure! You'll probably have some pounds just in junk release from the trip.
Ruth - Boys sure have a way of dropping weight after eating things, like cake and chinese, it's crazy. There are losers of every speed here too so you'll have some good company, I remeber Late to the Game lamenting just that very thing a few weeks ago.
Pucedaisy - Update that ticker hun, you're 2.5lbs under, take credit! You've earned it. And I love Michael Pollan, Omnivore's Dilemma is on my bookshelf, it's just got a few in front of it first.
It's gonna be a scorcher today, 35 degrees in the shade and the trees aren't moving so that's not good. Not a day for a run outside. Gotta load up my new groovy 80's mix and go get my HIIT on, then must figure out what to do for workout #2, maybe some core circuit training, the possibilities are endless.
Wow, that was a long one! There
Sandye beat that
Let's start the month off on the right foot so make sure you're eating right and go sweat on purpose and when you're done, go do it again!
to those of you joining our team. : )
to the August challenge. Good to have you.
on those inches. A great accomplishment indeed. 
Ack! He asked if he's has to eat the same bark that I'm eating. Lord, please give me the courage not to 
He's normally a very sweet guy, but he loves food as much as I do and doesn't understand. I told him I was going to tell on him! 
). So I figure if I am successful with this challenge, then I can do anything.
