OK, scared me for minute when the thread was locked. I tried to post right after Anna, but Suzanne's post wasn't showing up yet. I thought I'd been given the boot!

Can we stalk members? I want to be on Soul's team next time! Seriously though, the game is what you make of it no matter who your team mates are I think! I've had a great time and received lots of good support.

I HIT the wall during UB weights this AM. I seriously almost passed out. Josh had be doing circuts of push ups, pull up and chin ups and I about died.

It was a big let down for me. I was hoping the threads had been all shut down for some big controversey.

EDIT: NEVER MIND, I get it now I'm slow.

Hmmmm the only post I see in here is sweetpeas...something wipe us out?

I was just going to check in, but seems I should wait until later maybe. Hope everything is okay!

Wow I can't believe we got to so many pages before the challenge was over. I got to the gym today. I couldn't do the eliptical as long as I had the last few times. My knees were bothering me so I got on the recumbent bike which doesn't hurt at all. I'm hoping to switch to the regular stationary bike when I think my legs are strong enough so that this summer I can actually ride my bike. Unfortunately its a little hilly here so we'll see with my knees as bad as they are.

LOL.... hilarious! Surprising that that wasn't the reason for it....

You know, that thought went through my head as well! LOL!

For those who get PMS-related fatigue, you know that moment when it feels like someone just dropped you into a sea of wet sand?

It just happened. OMG, I feel like there is actual lard in my butt. Going out to walk to see if I can shake it.

Hey Julz, I wanted you to know that I am fascinating by your %BF ticker. I started at 37% at 157 pounds....I cannot wait to see what happens with your numbers!

Anna - how did you have your BF tested? Dunk tank? The only reason I ask is the 37% at 157 sounds off. I can see a partial of your body (obviously post children!) and you don't look it. I'm at approx 40% now. With about 92 pounds to go to goal.

It was where they have you hold the wand and they put electrodes on you and measure the resistance. It was at the witch doctor. They based it on the weight with all my clothes on, which was 5 pounds higher than I had weighed that AM with a t-shirt and underwear.

They had my target weight, based on 19% BF at 122, if I recall. I scoffed.

My dad's gym does it (mine does not), and I thought about seeing if he could set me up to have it tested there. I wish I had my paper in front of me to give you more details, but it is in M's room and she is sleeping (fell asleep on our walk, little sweetie).

Would not think of going anywhere else Chelle. Course, if you needed me to, I would be a grown up about it and deal. "I've been e-ve-ry-where man, I've been e-ver-y-where..." isn't that some hotel chain song? Yeah, and i've been on every team and an a repeater on blue this round. GumbyGirl.

Blue team, you MUST check this out, I burned a bunch of calories laughing at this.

P.S. I would want to join with you gals again, that is if you can handle my slow weight loss =(
Anyway, I am working and and eating healthier thanks to you ladies,
Hope to check in more this weekend.

Hi everyone. I think Imma have to sit the rest out. The weigh in part. It's bad. REAL BAD. LOL. I shouldn't laugh but I gotta keep my sense of humor. This stuff waiting for babies, and all the back and forth was depressing me sooo much but I've decided to focus on my two kids who are here forever and put away all my baby things, the bassinett and all the clothes, and swing, etc.

I need to be able to focus on who's here not who I want to join us. It's just too much for me now. So I am making a goal to get to goal -177- By my daughter's birthday party in mid June. It CAN be done. And IMMA DO IT!!!

I just have to get my mindset back to normal, so glad that being this much smaller, and all I had to learn to get me here has become my new normal and my old ways are history (except when they come back for two weeks and I gain 8 lbs., some of which is probably pms but hey I don't know at this point, lol. There was an incident with cookie dough.. well actually a few of those. Don't ask.)

I think I will have to get up at 6am to exercise. I want to go walk in my neighborhood b4 my dh has to go to work every day (he leaves about 720 on his earliest day), bc esp in summer, I have all my kids with me all day, we stay so busy to keep them occupied plus I'll have Emily hanging on my legs while I try to work out, not good.


It doesn't look like we are getting Gerber; they had already put him in yet another home and didn't want to move him from it. His attorney said Well if you'd have left him with them this wouldn't have happened. He shouldn't have to pay the price. He said he was so sorry but nothing could be done. Just breaks my heart. I just can't keep thinking about it though, because it's literally killing me, I'm depressed and steadily gaining weight. I'm so sorry to vent to you all so much. I promise to keep it all to a bare minimum next challenge and the rest of this one.

Thanks so much for listening,
Hugs, Selina

Selina, it breaks my heart to think of you sad. I am sending you prayers and good thoughts.
