    MonteCristo:
    I am very excited for the Jillian in you to kick our butts and a little scared, I may need my mommy! LOL

    Shan84: I'll do something better then wish you luck I'll pray for you.

    Ms. Perception: I am glad you are felling better.

    RangerChic: Thank you for all your hard work being our Team Leader.

    DCapulet: You're doing a 5k?! I am very impressed, I don't think I could do 5 yards much less a 5k.

    JasonLea: Hello!

    Nicki54: 2lbs fantastic!


    I had my exercise class with my ladies today and we sweated a lot and had a blast. I'm really tired; I pushed them hard as well as myself. I have been having a hard time with my snacking lately I’m craving food late a night not like me at all. I am wondering if I need some vitamin supplement, because I read cravings mean your body needs something. But I can't figure out what it is.
  • Had a good workout today. I upped some of my running intervals today and didn't feel like dying. woot! Hope everyone's having a good week so far.

    Burn it! (this was my teams slogan from a biggest loser competition at my gym, I still like it)
  • Just checking in for the first time this week. Change is a comin. Thanks to all who help keep this thing going. I can be motivational, but don't think I could ever handle all the statistics part of the job. Thanks again.

    I am just doing my thing every day. Work, workout, eat 1500 calories. I live the life of the tortoise and the hare.
  • Hey everyone!! So sorry I have been so out of the loop, I have been out of town since Sunday pretty much and just got home this evening... am going to try and catch up tonight! Hope everyone had a great week!

    Angela,

    I am glad you're back, I hope you had a great Thanksgiving. I see you started a new challange for us, thanks for helping us get motivated. I've signed and so has MonteCristo.

    PS: Aclai4067 I am going to use Burn It in my signature, I hope you don't mind. I think it's a great slogan for the Red Team.
  • Hope everyone has a great Thursday. Heading into Friday morning here in SK. Not much planned today. We still have the middle school boys and I have 5 classes tomorrow teaching them (in English) about the ocean and sea animals. Woohoo! Haha. Anyways, I'm still on plan with my food this week. Still lacking in motivation for exercise. I don't know what to do to get it through my head that I need to do more. Of course winter time is coming quickly here and the weather is getting colder. I did find out how much a gym membership is in town. I'm just scared to go because 1) I'll be the biggest person there, and 2) Everyone else is Korean so its not like I can react to anything they say, let alone understand anything they say. I'm wondering if I should try going and just see what it is like. Maybe get on the treadmill and the bike. Just make an afternoon of it. Actually I think I'm ready to commit to giving it a shot. I'm going to make plans to go in on Saturday and do a last chance workout there before my weigh in on Sunday morning. You watched me write it, so now please hold me too it.

    GO RED TEAM!!!
  • Ms Perception~ Good to hear that you’re feeling better!

    MonteCristo
    ~ Congrats on being our soon-to-be Team Leader!

    tinabinab
    ~ That is a really great motto!

    shan84~ Great job getting all that exercise in!

    Mommyofsix
    ~ Yikes! Sorry that yesterday was such a crazy bad day! How have things been today?

    Nicki54
    ~ Congrats on 2 lbs.!!!

    dcapulet

    ~ Have your tried drinking a little extra water to see if that takes care of the craving?

    Cape Breton Chick
    ~ Did you have a good time out of town?

    shan84
    ~ Saturday it is! You can do it!

    A bit of frustrating day with a confrontation between my boss and I about my going on the 3FC website. I agreed not to go on during the school day anymore, but when she tried to say I couldn’t before or after either, I drew the line. There is no reason why I can’t and if it really bugs her, I’ll use a computer in another room.
    This is my last 14 hour day this week, which makes a total of 3, plus three 8 hour days… I can’t wait to sleep in on Saturday!!!

    Sorry about your boss that does seem unfair. Don't let it get you down. I will try more water and see if that helps, plus I am going to try 3-5 serving of organic whole wheat a day. I wish I could just eat 1200 calories a day but my body just says more food please until I give in. 1600 calories is going to be hard but I think it will make all the difference at the scale.
  • Upped my running intervals a little more today. Still didn't feel like I was dying during, but... er... I feel it now. Someone come cook for me, I have not the strength to stand!
  • Hope everyone had a great Thursday. TGIF here in SK. Feeling good today and I think it's going to be a great day!
  • I've been a bit bored with baked chicken. I'm a pretty plain eater, I usually just put some garlic and mrs. dash on it. So to change it up tonight I stuffed my chicken with sun-dried tomatoes, light feta, and some kalamata olives. It was SO good!
