Chat & Check-in
Mea ~ You're doing great! I also love this forum. It really helps me to keep going everyday. I encourage you to keep posting.
Awwwww. ... thanks. You make me blush.
Thanks. It just time to get to 210 and under. I've been swimming around way too much in the same few pounds. So .. refocus . ...
Awww ... Joanna. You sound like you have a positive attitude.
Just saw kettlebells in the store last night. They look like quite interesting --I'm definitely keeping them in mind for a change in pace sometime down the road. I think I'll always associate kettlebells with Kay on FitDay.

Checking in, I did a practice session with kettlebells tonight. I need to get a lighter bell for windmills. I was okay on the right side, but my left side was a different story. Swings are getting easier though, so I might move up to a heavier bell there. Should have done dead lifts, but didn't.

almeeker ~ Yahooo for your dd and for you!!! I love it when the healthy choices sink in with the kids. Just warms the heart.
WOW! I'm mesmerized with all your green! How do you get 100 oz water in?
Darlene ~ Sorry for the soggy battle! Please don't get sick over it, but I love your spirit. I really feel like it's been a battle for me & so that's why I have to stay focused & get back on track. I love this site & people, but I also love the Health Group that I go to weekly. I just need all the reinforcements that I can.

April Hang in there you are doing the right thing for him, hopefully tomorrow he will be in better spirits.
Amy Good job on getting the living room cleaned up but let’s face it until your kids are well into their teens you are fighting a losing battle.
Cassie I am glad I ate my stir fry because tonight’s dessert was plum pudding with whip cream and I was able to pass because I had already had all my calories today.
Mike I hope your numbers work out to be great!
Tori How sweet he pre planned sending you an email that’s pretty awesome.
Kay Great job with homework and exercise you are doing so well.
Fit4luv You are doing great on your goals. Thanks for your concern about me walking in the rain but I have invested in some good hiking clothes a couple months back so my outside was soggy but under layers were still in good shape.
I am pretty happy with my exercise today I got my soggy hike in and also a good long walk later when the rain was light. I made great food choices all day even though I am famished still. I hope tomorrow to wake up not hungry!
Have a great night everyone.
Goals:
Walk 25k: M=7.1k, T=6k, W=0, T=11.6k
Exercise 5 days: M=Hike, T=Walk, W=No, T=Hike & Walk
Squats 5 days: M=Y, T=Y, W=Y, T=N
Ab work 5 days: M=Y, T=Y, W=Y, T=Y
Calories less than 1400: M=1379, T=1501, W=1406, T=1282
Calorie deficit of 5000 for week: M=-753, T=-436, W=-504, T=-954
No sugar: M=N, T=N, W=Y, T=Y

Tori, how in the world do you make and eat chicken pot pie and only consume 970 calories? I could eat twice that before I got it into the oven. And while we're on the topic, it's very cruel of you to talk about homemade chicken pot pie and not share the recipe, just saying...
#167
You're so not kidding. I'm on a mission though, I'm sick to death of living in a pig sty, the kids need to get it through their heads that they may not "stop & drop". OMG our 5 year old is TERRIBLE about stuff like that. It doesn't matter what it is, she will drop whatever, wherever. Just having her home is like a small fast tornado blowing through the house. I'm not asking her to be perfect, all I'm asking is that she not leave a mile wide debris field in her wake.

It was super sweet. It's one of the things that I like about him, he's UberThoughtful! I know Ive only mentioned him in a positive light so far, but he does have negative qualities too. But right now I'm still in the "aww he's so perfect" phase of the relationship.

Okay, yesterday sucked. Actually, not entirely true. I went to the gym and felt really good about that, and the eating was good until I couldn't put down the rice cakes and peanut butter. Otherwise, it sucked. But, come on, things could be so much worse - seriously. Today should be better if only by virtue of the fact that it's Friday.
April, I'm still keeping you in my thoughts - I'm so impressed with your ability to keep pretty positive about this whole thing, I think you could teach me a thing or two.
Tori - I'm so jealous of your pot pie! I love pot pie so hard, holy cow. That's sweet about the email.
