Mike!!

You look so uncomfortable in that WHOLE VIDEO, lol. You look rather fetching in pink, though! I would KILL to see you in the pink running shorts.

You forgot to say my name in the video and I am personally insulted (j/k of course)

In all seriousness, you're doing a wonderful thing for a great cause. Thank you

I wish I had gotten pictures of my hair from the back, it was GORGEOUS. It had 83 bobby pins in it though - taking those out at midnight was SO FUN.
Inner thighs? Wait a minute, women grow hair there? Seriously? I'm sure that would be an iiiinteresting experience, I can't even imagine.

I also wish you had taken pictures of the back, especially since it's as close as I'm getting to a salon for a while yet. The only times in my life that I've had that many bobby pins in my hair, somebody ended up married before the night was over.

Heck no. I actually cracked up when you complained about how short women's running shorts are, welcome to my world, and just think if you had a girlish figure you'd have a lot more junk in your trunk to pack in those shorty shorts. And if you think the shorts are short, the tennis skirts are worse because not only are they short, but low riding as well. Aren't you glad you didn't volunteer to wear high heels and pantyhose?

Today went well especially considering the rough start. I couldn't sleep last night and ended up snacking after midnight, so by the time I finished breakfast I was already at 600 calories for the day and had slept through my usual workout. But I managed to plan around it and ended the day just below 1,400. That's sort of new for me, usually once I'm over I just throw in the towel and start fresh the next day or maybe 3-4 days later. But today I pulled up my big girl panties and made a plan, didn't stick to it letter for letter, but close enough to pull off a decent deficit.

Anyway I caught up on all the posts, welcome aboard to the new voices and high fives to the rest of you, especially Mike for his fund raising efforts and taking full ownership of his pink promise. I wish I had a little time to chat right now, but it's a school night and the monsters, um I mean lovely daughters, need to be wrangled to their bunks. And somehow or another my sitting here typing to you and consequently ignoring them is not making it happen. Go figure.
