This sounds good-- I want to commit to using my bowflex 3 times this week (30 min) and taking 2- 30 min cardio walks.

Starting Monday!!

Hi mscat! Glad and relieved that things are better! Yeah! you got your workout in! Sorry you got in very little water! I have a big tumbler next to me right now. But, I lost my straw, and with everything completely out of the kitchen now, I don't know where I can find another one! I do better sipping through a straw than actually drinking it from the tumbler.

Glad to hear that work was okay and that you were able to calm down - glad to know that the incident you thought happened did not actually happen. If your're really serious about looking for another job, I say, "you GO girl!"

I'm sure that you are excited about going on to the Division contest for your speech contest - you are so comical I'm sure that you will do great! If you feel that the problems at your job are trivial, then I agree that life is too good to focus on thise trivialities.

I'll watch the alcohol - know that there are a lot of hidden calories there! It was just one of those days when my son plucked my last reserved nerve!

So far, today, I've had 1030 + calories. But I did have McDonald's cheesburger and a small fry, while I was waitiing for the kids at dance classes today. No excersize today, but I feel like I had a huge workout - been helping my husband lug out cabinets from the kitchen (remember all of our stairs) along with lots of bags of heavy trash, and also helped him unload drywall and 2 x 4s off of the truck and onto the porch. Boy am I sore! I'm tired, but not sleepy yet.

Hi BJLewis! What sounds good? Good luck on commiting to using your bowflex 3 times this week (30 min) and taking 2-30 mini cardio walks, starting Monday!

Well, I don't know where everyone else is, so I guess that that's all for now.

Hi sanfdybhat! Glad to hear that you are doing fine! I'm doing fine too! I went to my mom's EE&T doctor this morning, and I finally found out why my ears having been itching. I have an ear allergy. He cleaned them out and gave me a prescription for a cream to apply twice a day with a cotton swab. I thought that I was going crazy! I had lost 2 lbs., but yesterday I really pigged ou! However, he did ask for xtra green peppers and xtra mushrooms, so at least I had some more vegetables..... Amazingly, I'm at 170 lbs., which means that I lost 1/2 lb.! Go figure! I had just ordered some dress shoes for church, and they arrived just now. They're for a special re-entry celebration to our church, in November. My feet are swollen right now, but they're still cute. I can't wait until the dress gets here. Hope I don't have to get it altered. I took a chance with an 18 instead of an 16. My stomach and behind just seem to keep getting bigger and bigger! Hope that you enjoy your new skirt and sweater!

Hi FishWoman! What's the strive-for-five challenge? Anyway, glad you did well on Friday and Saturday! Hope that yesterday wasn't too much of a bust How was your weekend? I was busy playing taxi mom with the kids dance classes and my DH was busy with the kitchen renovation. My daughter was busy doing a book report, and my son was busy being a boy and staying into trouble!

Hi BJ! Most of us check in everyday, or every chance we get from day to day. Mscat checks our results on Mondays. She'll explain it to you.
