Hey I think getting together for the rock 'n roll (or isn't there a couple of other races in NOLA too?) would be fun. Folks could run, walk, team-up, cheer, whatever. Maybe Mike can work on getting us a nice group discount at a fun hotel.
I have to say that the last MG I attended, many years ago, the nights were cold as a witch's mammary gland!
So a little later in the spring would be find too.
BTW, lots of train options to NOLA, east coast, Chicago, along the southern boarder for those thinking of making it an adventure.

ok so this is the summary i am getting... Tori and Mike are sparring as usual, there is talk of a get together in NOLA at some point. Mike is going to run, Hope is going to cheer him on, Tori will run along side hurling insults at him to keep him motivated, Mern has planned ahead for her fish fry tonight and Fit got het two miles in and is showing lots of green this week. Lol
I hit the gym again tonight was legs and I barely got through the 30 minutes of elliptical afterwards. But I am leg pressing 225 for 10 reps Whoya!!! OF course i can barely walk down the stairs afterwards because my muscles are so fatigued

Busy day today, I didn't write anything but just got home. I forgot my steroids at home so I just took 2 (I hope it's okay and will take 2 more before bed)
I'll try to post back in a little bit.

1) 3000 cals deficient: -697, +829, -659, 0?, -213 (-740 so far 
)
2) workout 3 times: no, no, yes, no, no
3) walk 2 times: no, no, yes (just over 5 miles), no, no
4) 4 serving of fruit/veggies: yes, yes, yes, no, no
5) weigh in daily (starting Tuesday morning): will tomorrow,T= 184.6,w= 183.2, Th=181.4, F=182.4 (-2.2 so far)
I won't hit my #1 or #2 goals. I decided that I'm not going to workout the rest of this week b/c I really need to give my back a rest, even if it's just a small one.

Kim ~ Great summary of the thread. 
I guess the balance between challenging & overdoing is something that we all work thru regardless of where we are fitness wise.
Mern ~ I logged in what snack I could have before eating . . .and I ate that & no more. All though I really felt like pigging out.

Will post actual #s tomorrow. But I will say that I hit my calories today, but that's all. Oh, and I cleaned my car out, sort of. It still needs vacuuming and washing, but the junk that's collected is pretty much gone. Now I just gotta get the non junk "stuff" out of it.....I swear people probably think I live in the dang thing. Had a good girls' night out. A bunch of us went to dinner and then to a movie. The movie was good, not great though. You know it's not great when you spend most of the time on facebook. Another busy day tomorrow, gotta work in the morning and then party tomorrow night. Probably won't hit my calories again tomorrow. I'm just throwing in the towel this week. I'll try my best to catch up on everything some time tomorrow afternoon. If not then, Sunday. Sunday is the only day that I have nothing planned. Off to get a couple of hours before work.
Night All!!!
Night All!!!

This week I need a set of weekend goals. I need to see them all week so I have a game plan in mind when the weekend gets here.
1. Clean out car
2. Good cleaning of kitchen level includes fridge and cupboards
3. Wash all curtains
4. Clean out snake tank
5. Clean fish tank
6. Whole house general cleaning
7. This might be pushing it but weather permitting, trim some forsynthia bushes! W: Beautiful weather drew me outside until after dark!
8. Sunday - Watch level 2 of 30 Day Shred so I know what I am in for Monday
9. Do full body measurements
I wanted to get on and make my report for yesterday. DOn't know if I will get back today or not. I have a ton to do this weekend.
Sorry to say that no matter where a get together is held unless it is in boring PA, I won't be able to attend this year. We will be spending our money this summer to put a new roof on the house. Also filling in along the driveway with about 250 tons of slate to make a place to build my hubby a proper garage. I will expect tons of pics and live through the rest of you though!
