Cats
WAY TO GO I got through one mile of it and was sneezing and coughing so much I had to stop. Going to make myself do those two miles left later.

Things will get back on track. You take care of yourself.

jely
You are doing so great, you inspire us. I have to admit when I was 18 I walked back and forth to work 3 miles each way. Took me 30 min to walk those 3 miles. Not so hot huh lol.

Mom
So glad the little one is feeling better.

Cassie
Hit those books.

Tina
Sometimes there is nothing you can say that will make a difference. My sister is the same way. She works as hard as she can and he sits on his bum and says how he can't do this and can't do that. From what I have seen over 15 years what he can't do is get off his bum. She would go on and on and I finally told her the last time GET OFF THE CROSS SOMEONE NEEDS THE WOOD.

Hi everybody,

Just have a moment, but I wanted to let you know the reason why I haven't been on for the last week. Its been one terrible tragedy after another. My cousin past away on Saturday. 32 years old, he just got married last July and yesterday morning one of my best friends mom passed away. I am overwhelmed with grief for everybody involved. It has been a very emotional and sad week and it will continue to be so. My cousins funeral was yesterday and my friends mom’s is on Saturday morning. I feel very bad and have had to be there for my friend as much as I can as she has no family left, as she was an only child. Anyway, just wanted to keep you in the loop since I haven’t been able to post as I honestly am from work to viewings to making and helping out with food, support, etc. I will try to post on the weekend and I will for sure post my weight for the weigh in and hopefully things will be back to normal somewhat by Monday.
I hope you all are doing okay, and please forgive me as I haven’t even looked at any of the posts as I just wanted to send you all a quick post before I head out again.
Well take care and I hope you are all having a better week than me.

Sara

Sara - I'm so sorry for your losses! You'll be in my thoughts!

Sara~ I am so sorry to hear about your losses! You all will be in my thoughts and prayers.

Awww Sara, I am so sorry for your losses. You and everyone will be in my prayers.

Hello RED Team!

When I was getting ready for work today, I thought of several things I needed to post about, but for the life of me I cannot remember now. Hmmm? I'm in a funk today. It's not weight or exercise related. I'm not sure what it is but I hope it goes away soon. I'll try to check back in later.

Sara - That is terrible news. I will keep you and your friends/family in my prayers.

Sara I'm really sorry to hear everything that you are dealing with. I hope your family recovers and heals quickly from your losses.

Sorry everyone, I'm gonna skip personals again this afternoon. For whatever reason I'm not feeling so hot. I just had to go take care of some PTA stuff at the school and I was literally dripping with sweat the whole time, now I'm really shaky and not feeling so hot. Plus I just found out that all our fundraiser stuff is labeled to make the checks out to the school and not the PTA so I gotta go in on every single one (250 of em) and change it. GRRR!! I'll be back though!

I just wanted to thank you all for the kind words. It's just so frustrating to me to watch someone I love do this to herself and her son. I can't change it though, and she knows how I feel. I'm going to have to let it go, and she is going to have to learn the hard way I'm afraid! I had a good time helping out at school. It felt good to get out of the house for the afternoon and clear my head. I'm just spent, ya know? I'm the type of person that wants to solve everything and have the answer for everything, and I'm coming to realize I can't do it. When she falls of course I'll be here for her, but I hate that I have to wait for it to happen. It's like seeing into the future...people always think that would be cool, not me! I don't want to know whats going to happen. I'm going to have a late lunch. Thanks again~

Sara- I'm so sorry to hear about your losses. Your cousin was so young, and just married...it breaks my heart. I wish your family and your friends family the best...we're thinking of you!

Karen- Sometimes the weather puts me into a funk...like when the sun doesn't shine forever...that gets to me.

Melissa- I hope you feel better hun, try to get some rest and hopefully you can beat off whatever is trying to get ya.

So many of our members are sick right now

I'm sending good vibes and prayers your way.

Good evening Red Team!!

Just popping in to wish everyone a good evening and hope everyone is doing well! I am about go get my butt kicked in bootcamp! Leaving in about 15 minutes.

It's been one of those days. After my car broke down yesterday evening, I had to spend $1200 to get a new starter, battery, positive battery bolt and cable, 2 new tires, windshield wipers, and an oil change. My car is 100% better so I'm not too mad about spending the money, plus I had a bonus check last week that I put away for exactly this reason! I was expecting it to be a lot worse so all is okay, well at least to me...my husband is fuming mad, but he is coming home in time for me to go work out with Marty & Amy so he can't be all that upset... it's not coming out of his paycheck anyway! haha

I'll try to post after I get my butt kicked.

Later!

I'm back and I got my Oh My Gosh!! I have never sweat so bad in my life! It was excruciating and I can hardly breath! I have never used a Spin bike before, WOW! Marty kicked my rear on that thing! They definitely put us through a workout! I have never done an organized class before so this was a whole new experience! We did some spinning, then we moved to the gym and did some squats, lunges, walk outs, wall push ups, sit ups, ran and walked laps, then moved to the racquetball court and did more circuit training type I guess, squats, , hop scotch, jump rope, lunges (holding a medicine ball above head), shuffle, push ups, jump rope, bicep curls, shuffle, shoulder press, shuffle...all with 1 minute intervals, then we did leg raises, bicycle crunches, plank hold, and then cool down stretch. WOW! I'm going to be in pain tomorrow. Oh wait, I already am! I will definitely be going back! They definitely kicked my butt tonight! I did meet one of the girls that is doing the Million Pound Match-Up as well so that was neat! We have been chatting back and forth and knew each other was going tonight so that was pretty cool. Next week we will see if I can make it, my husband barely got home in time for me to make it tonight. but I did!

Thought I would pop in and let everyone know what is going on. As you know we are tearing out the carpet in our one hallway and putting wood floors down. WELL since I am a accident looking for a place to happen. I found a place today lol. I tripped over a piece of lint ( lol ) on the floor we had just pulled the carpet off of and fell down the stairs. Let me re say that. I fell down the three stairs to the landing and then down the flight of stairs lol. I wasn't laughing at the time and sure hope God forgives me for the things I WAS saying on the way down. I will be ok but I did something to my hip, which I have no idea what they are talking about. Closest I can understand is that I sprained it. Well it means ( my mother has said this for years ) I finally found that place to darn near kill myself because I am such a klutz lol. The doc said I can walk all I want ( as long as it doesn't hurt to much ). No jumping or sprinting. Not really in the mood to jump or sprint lol. Think I might take his advice on that one lol. Did a couple one mile videos today ( did it hurt you might ask ) don't be foolish of course it hurt lolol. Do you think I am made of plastic hehehe. But, I was able to do them. Think the knee lifts and kicks are going to have to wait for a bit. So for now, it seems 1 mile videos and upper body workouts are going to be the exercise I can do. My daughter brought me Oreo cookies because of course they help with pain. I ate 10 of them before I knew it. Going to be paying for that. First time in almost 10 months I haven't been on plan. Won't kill me but sure isn't smart. Glad there are no more of the darn things in the house lol. Checked fit day. Since I have been on the lower end of what I allow myself for a few weeks, I am still within my ranges. Think this still means lots of chicken and salads for a week lol. Will just have to see how long it takes to get back into action. Doc said it could be a few days it could be a few weeks.

Andi
Oh my gosh. If I ever do anything really bad in life. What you did is the punishment God will give me for my bad deeds lol. Glad you were able to get the car up to snuff and it didn't cost more than the car was worth lol.

Counting
Hello counting, dear.

Diva
Take it easy. The thing that is going around is a real butt kicker. People don't take it easy long enough and they end up sick again.

Tina
I do understand. For years I did all I could. I would be there when ever she called. After awhile I just couldn't watch it anymore. I felt so bad for her and yet saw she was causing her own problems by feeding into his laziness. She is never going to change, we are so different. I can't understand how she can be around someone like him. A man can't dig a ditch when I need one, I will get another man lol.

Hun
You really need to take it easy.

Sara
I am so very sorry for the tragedies that have happened in your life. Take comfort that God is there with you.
