*yawn* Afternoon girls! *yawn* I am soooo tired!!!!!

No. Really and truly. I never EVER thought I'd be in the 130s again! I shot for 150 because not only did it seem more obtainable from 200, but because I thought that was the best I could do kwim? And hey, right back at ya hun! Your positive attitude is just infectuous and it keeps me motivated every day!
All open gym is, is that they open the basketball gym for kids to play on tumbling mats and with hula hoops and basketballs--it's nothing structured, just a place to play inside. I'm thinking it's going to be our saving grace come Winter! Ya know, I swear by Goodwill! You can find tons of stuff there to wear while you're losing and it won't cost you much at all. Just try to go it alone--unless your kiddos are okay with you sorting through racks.
Tummy~ glad to hear your run went well! Are you listening to music when you run? When I was searching for good running music I found a website that had different playlists structured around certain beats per minute--it was help people with keeping pace. I didn't bookmark it, but I'm sure I could find it again if you're interested. I need to beef up my playlist, turns out the one I made to do my 25 min run is too short for my 30 min run and warm up/cool down.
You're killin' me! 135 on me won't 'skinny'--it used to be when I young and muscular, but now that I'm older and soft...I can tell ya it's not gunna be the same. However, it's certainly a whole lot smaller than 200!!!
MsP~ WTG on getting your vitamins in as much as you have! I keep mine right next to the coffee pot so I can't miss them. I have a routine every morning when I make breakfast--the last thing I do is pour my coffee and if I haven't taken my vitamins and meds by then, I remember the second I hit that coffee pot.
Have fun making cookies! I'm not quite strong enough for that yet--muffins and stuff I can do so far, but cookies...I dunno...I'm scared to try!

Hey girlie! We miss ya hun! Hope to chat more soon!
April~ sorry about the scale being up, but I'm sure it'll be gone in no time. Feel free to send your cold rainy weather my way! I love that stuff!!!
Mmmm, cake! I love cake! I'm so thankful that my fil makes all the Birthday cakes for the family--it means less temptation for me!
Bigmid~ Hey you! Hmm...could it be you need more calories? Or maybe it's hormonal--I know I get the hungries more often during certain times of the month
WTG staying on plan!!
Nella~
Well, I don't know if my girls would be much of a break for you--they're pretty meladramtic and moody too! Man alive, I'm in for it when they're teens! I told hubby he's going to need to be medicated when they start having PMS because most likely, I'll be going through menopause at the same time!
MeowMix~ hey hun! Sounds like you're doing a great job!! I have total faith you'll do an awesome job while on your mini-vacation! You can do it!!! Glad you checked in!! It's nice to see people pop in and share their victories or just plain update!
Well, open gym was okay--only one girl showed up and my girls were barnacles like they usually are so it wasn't all that relaxing--but it was okay. The girl who showed up had mentioned last week that she had signed up for the 5K so I got excited--perhaps she could turn into a running buddy or something?? However, she said that she's going to be walking it and that she can't run more than half a mile without stopping. Ah well, maybe if she ever wants to increase her distance we could meet up for runs later...
But the best part of the whole thing was that we got to talking about the whole running/weight loss stuff and she called me 'teeny' I was shocked!
I mean, me? 'Teeny'?! I dunno...But it sure was nice to hear that's for sure!
Not much else planned for the day, I really should be cleaning but I am so dang tired I just don't want to! Perhaps another cup of coffee will motivate me to get movin'!
Okay girls, hope everyone is having a great day!
