Sorry to here about your family member.

And please forgive my "like" of your post - it applies to the numbers only! (It's how I keep track of which ones I've entered into the big spreadsheet.)

Thank you. Life is tough sometimes, for sure.

I've been MIA for a few days.

Does this happen to anyone else? Life is hard/relationships are really hard... self-esteem goes down...you start to feel frumpy (and let's just say it - f.a.t.)...you find comfort in food...shocking eatting tons doesn't help your self-esteem...repeat.

I finally snapped out of it and I've gotten a runs in yesterday and today.

checking in to 919/1600

You are not alone, I was feeling that way myself the end of last week. Good for you for snapping out of it ! We are stronger than we give ourselves credit for

Well, life definitely caught up with me this past week. I had a death in the extended family and ended up taking a 3-day road trip to attend the funeral with my sister. So I'm a little behind in my training.

Sorry to hear about your family member.
(My like of your post is also related to the minutes ... I'm glad to hear you have gotten some minutes in despite the situation)

Story of my life.
I'm glad to hear you were able to snap out of it and get back on the right track!

So, I did my Wacky Wednesday exercise a day early ... assorted dancing, most of which I couldn't keep up with the steps.

28 minutes

Puts me at 785/1050, which is just a few minutes short of 75%. I should get there on my walk to Starbucks tomorrow.

40 minutes of cardio brings me to 725/1200

563/1000

All right! I'm over halfway. Not going to look at my schedule to see if I'll make it or not. Just going to keep plugging along. Temps are too hot for any outdoor activity and it's a bit smokey. Lisa--we're supposed to get a weather change in 2 days so maybe you will, too!! At least the temp will go down. Don't think there's any rain heading our way.

Keep up the good work everybody!!

I totally get this way too! It can be a vicious cycle, glad to hear you snapped out of it

Thanks.

I am back on track - pulled off my training run last night, and I'm sitting here waiting for my food to digest so I can complete today's training run before work.

Tuesday - 27 minutes running.

Good Morning, and Happy "Wacky Wednesday"!

The team had a great day yesterday, with over 600 minutes coming in!!

(None for me though. DS has been sick, and something had to give yesterday.)



We have a rainbow of color changes today -

starting with LizardQueen8 at Minnie's Bow Pink!

hmack and glss1/2fll have both hit Pixie Dust Purple!
and our newest member, Disneybell2015, is already at Cloudless Sky Blue after only two days!



Have a great day everyone, and keep up the good work!!

So sorry for your loss, PSUTraveler. Kudos to you for getting right back on track with your activity.

Yay you for snapping out of it and getting right back on track! Last week's Weight Watchers meeting was on this exact same topic. It's a tough cycle to break.

Yep, it's definitely hard to get that activity right now. We had unhealthy air quality levels for anyone which is really unusual. We already have a red flag warning up for the front. As you say, we really could use some rain and none in sight. Hang in there!

52 minutes of walking brings me 852/1000 Hoping for a nice run outside on Saturday morning but until then I miss my running group.

 

[PSUTraveler]

Thank you @lisah0711 , and I hope you are able to get some rain.

It's hot and humid here, now I realize how much I prefer running in the cold!

Oh well...got out on my run this morning. 58 minutes so now I'm at...

702/1500

 

[Dentam]

25 minutes of walking today. 555/1000

 

[SarahDisney]

38 minutes walking today ... some of which was uphill (I hate uphill)

821/1050

 

[Disneybell2015]

40 Minutes of Zumba today - Feels really good getting back on track!

110/520

 

[PollyannaMom]

15 minutes for me today on the mini-trampoline.

I didn't think it was going to be wacky (I usually just jog / march while watching TV)...but then the cat decided to join me.

Apparently she likes bouncy things, and we need a new smiley: + = ??

 

[LizardQueen8]

45 minutes of yoga for stress relief/ab exercises. Yes, I think $170 is s little much to spend on a dress I might never wear again. No, I don't need to be lectured on how all women need a dress for weddings and upcoming cruises I AM A FULLY GROWN ADULT KTHANXBYE

55 min. for Wed. Feeling so heartbroken, we lost firefighters today. Prayers up to protect our heroes. The fires rage and evacuations of entire towns just continues.
