Good morning everyone!

Penny: Your picture is so cute! You are looking so nice and trim! I'm sure you are getting excited about your trip. It sounds like you will be busy when you get home as well. Life...isn't it a rush!

LaDean, congrats on graduating next spring at ARD. How awesome that must feel!

Eleni: How are you doing?

I didn't get here yesterday; it was just to busy of a day. I carved 6 pumpkins! Our trick or treat night is Thursday, and yesterday was the only day that I had to carve the pumpkins. I'm very lucky that I don't have to worry about having the candy around and eating it. With the IC, I can't have chocolate and if I do, I'm in pain, so I am not tempted to eat it!

I had a good workout at the Y yesterday to. I'm up to adding 12 min to my cardio..almost at my 15 min increase goal. I'll leave it at 12 min this week and go to 13 next. It's all about the little changes right?

Everyone have a nice day. Be good to yourself!

Morning Ladies.....

I put the new pic thingy up here for all of us!

We can add some before and after pics of our progress! Whatcha think?

Eleni,
Thanks for the support... Check your mailbox soon

Susie,
Wow 6 pumpkins!!!! Is your hand hurting? Congrats on the increase on the exercise AWESOME!!

LaDean,
You have been doing so awesome! I know you can't wait to get to a KOP!!!! WOOOHOOO! I am not following a particular plan, I am using what I learned from South Beach and WW Core to eat healthy and sensibly.

I think it is more of just how I eat now instead of making sure I follow there exact guidelines. I am not very good on following plans, makes me feel like I fail if I don't follow the book

Have a wonderful day Ladies! HUGS TO YOU ALL!!!!!

Penny,

You are looking awesome girl. You are doing great. I noticed the ladybug and where it was and I was going to comment on it then I saw the picture. I am going to have a picture taken of myself for a before and after one to. I tried twice yesterday and it was at the end of the roll. So I am going to get out the instamatic camera I found when I cleaned out my nightstand.

Ladean,

Are you going to throw yourself a party and get something that you have wanted for a long time when you hit your goal. 3 lbs away I couldn't imagine. You are doing great. Keep up the great work.

Susie,

Congrats on adding yet another min to the workout. You are right it is the little things that add up over time. I am proud of all of your efforts. I know you must be on a high right now from that compliment. I know I would be. Soak it up girl you deserve the recognition.

Eleni,

How are you and bill feeling? I hope you are doing well. Have you heard when your procedure is going to be? You are both in my prayers.

As for me I did do some more decluttering this morning. I cleaned out my underwear drawer just like you susie. Got rid of a whole pile of stuff. Only took 5 min amazing and we put those things off. I had a nice weekend. Actually my daughter was gone all day saturday but I didn't realize she was going to be I misunderstoon my husband. So I didn't take a nap because I was waiting for her to come home. But I did have down time and time to play with the kids. It is great to have down time and to know your house is in order and you aren't spending all day doing housework. I love it and I have you to thank for that Penny. Thank you.
I did make it to church yesterday with all 3 kids that was challanging. But it worked out ok. They had a fall festival afterwards and megan did a pie eating contest. They had to see who ate the pie the fastest. She didn't eat the whole thing and I misssed seeing it. I wasn't happy. But Ben found a picture someone painted and he put his hand in it and while holding jesse I had to take him to clean the green paint off his hand before he got it all over his clothes and everyone else.LOL But she had fun and that is all that mattered.
The scale was down today so that is a great thing. I got to workout this morning. I am feeling better but not 100% yet it is getting there.

I hope you all have a great day.
