W.O.W. Valentines Day Challenge~LAST WEEK!
 

How did this challenge go by so fast??

I hope everyone did okay with the superbowl. I had too many sodas, but otherwise I did well.

I was up all night with Tommy, and an earache. so I guess we go to the doctor today. DANG IT!

I am thinking the next challenge will be the April fools day challenge. It seems just like yesterday we did it last year.

Hey ladies -

Jeni - hope Tommy feels better soon!

Mavis - hope you get to destress a little, take a bath and do some reading or leave the messes for tomorrow (a practice I implement a lot!)

Doing good, saw 174 this morning - ugh! Other than the weight I'm doing well, Connor sounds like he's getting a respiratory thing, a little wheezy and coughing a bit so I'm crossing my fingers it doesn't turn into a full blown illness. DH is working crazy hours as always :) Take care!!!

hello ladies, now the DS is sick with a sinus infection and a horrid cough to boot - got him started on a z-pac but now I am exhausted. Have been maintaining calories and made it to a couple of classes. I am off to bed, youi ladies have a good night

Not a lot to add. I'm getting tommy's cold, and Mak is getting an ear ache. It's febuary! I want all of this out of our system within a month!

Mavis - I need to do C25K again (after the baby is born of course), I feel like it a nice ease into running again.

Jeni Awesome Job~

Hi Mother Mavis and Emi!!

W - 64 oz
E-zumba class
E - 1467 calories
D - figure out if i am eating enough calories

I was back up to 248 from 244 (but i figured as much cuz i was sick) now back down to 245. have not been able to get to the gym due to the weather and feeling like crap.

W 100
E Just did half of C25K week 4 (the first 3 minute run and the first 5 minute run) that's enough for right now, knee feels a bit wonky, so thought I would stop there, resume if I can after work, if it still hurts, I will walk the rest of today's 10k steps
E OP
D Make excuses or make progress. I am choosing progress. I told my kids I was going to work on this while they were gone this semester. This is the end of their 2nd week back. Time to get with it if I plan to show them I kept my word......

Missing In Action!
 

Hey Chickadees!

Man, talk about missing in action! I fell off the Valentine's Day Challenge wagon, but I got back on today. That's all that matters, right? I have my excuses, but they are just that - excuses. So, onward and upward.

I got to the gym today and stepped on the scale and my weight is reduced. That feels nice in some ways, but I don't think it will stay down. I find the scale to be such a mystery. I'm trying my best to acknowledge all the positive results of this Challenge, so I will not let this mysterious drop in weight go by without a "Cheer!". :cheer2::cheer3:

My DS has been home all week with a cold as well. Take care ladies!
