Hi Red Team!

Geety, You really do kill me sometimes!!! Thanks for the laugh...and you owe me a keyboard AND a monitor for that one!!


LYMI!

 

[geetey]

You are welcome.

On a slightly more serious note, don't we get activity points for laughing? If so, I believe we are both earning some points!

I worked at the preschool today. Some of those kids just don't want to listen at all.

I rode the bike for 60 min when I got home. I had to make myself do it, I didn't want to at all. But I get to listen to my favorite CD when I ride so the hour went pretty quickly.

Have a great weekend!!

Well, today I've been in the 'blues' mood. Was about to exercise this morning when DD called from the bus and said she thinks she dropped her necklace/charms at the bus stop, can I go look for it. Keep in mind her bus stop is a PARK and I have no idea where it might be. So, I get dressed and head out. Since I'm going , might as well go fill the gas tank. Home to get the other car to fill, 4 gas stations w/o fuel. Do the Albertson's run. Get home and DS16 gives me his new travel schedule for gymnastics which throws me into a FUNK!

This season requires SEVEN airline tickets....so far! Or do things like drive 12 - 18 hours in 1 day which I don't do.

So, instead of eat, I go nap.

After the Albertson's run the dog got sick(more in my journal about my piggie dog), had to bathe, clipped the pup, etc.

I ate nothing til dinner and the only exercise was the shopping.

So, not a good day, not a bad day.....just another day.....

Tomorrow I will get in some exercise. If it cools off, maybe I'll go for a walk later.

Got my mile in tonight and did arm workouts. Boy, I feel GREAAAAAAAAATTTTTTTTTTTTT!


Go Red team Go!

 

[DoomBuggyBabe]

Uuugh...
Well, I, for one, just want to go back to bed. Been suffering with flu-like symptoms the last two days. Got my 60 minutes in yesterday, but today I did my first mile and had to go in because I thought I was going to fall over. Before work this evening my temp registered at 101, and now I'm stuck here alternately sweating and shivering while waiting for Friday night football copy to come in. I slept for 12 hours last night and I look/feel like I got 12 minutes. I wanna go home... But at least I'm not eating all that much.
Hope everyone else is doing well,
Laura

Morning!! So I am still not feeling well enough to excercise. I just can't shake this vertigo. I thought I was feeling better, but yesterday when I was at the dentists and the lowered me backwards, ughh!! The room just wouldn't stop spinning

Anyway, I have been trying to eat healthier so that I am not gaining this week. I wanted to share a recipe with everyone for a great low-fat smoothie. I had it this morning instead of coffee. I can't have any caffiene until this infection clears up because it dehydrates me, and I am going through withdrawl!!!

1 cup low-fat vanilla yogurt
1/2 cup milk
1 can light peaches
a handful of ice

Throw in blender and yummy!!

What is everyone up to this weekend? Dh and I are headed to Baltimore tomorrow for the Red Sox game. I know I will get a ton of walking in!!

Laura I hope you are feeling better!! Keep up the good spirits!

goldcupmom- WOW!! Your life is crazy!! Don't stress too much and just get in the excercise when you can!!

Agotta - is this just positional dizziness? I had this terribly a few years ago. After months it was diagnosed as a blocked eustachian tube. I was told to plug my nose and blow up to 100x/day and I would eventually clear it up, and it did! VERY annoying thing to have and quite disturbing!

Hope you are feeling better soon!

 

[agotta]

I have had this before. My allergies are awful and they affect my sinuses terribly. Doctors can't figure out what to do. When they get really bad, I get an inner ear infection. I am on antibiotics and every day the dizziness gets less and less. The first time it happened (1998) I couldnt drive for 2 months !! Anyway, thanks for the good wishes

 

[mountaineer]

goldcupmom you have a busy life!! I would nap too.

Hope those of you who are sick are feeling better.

I did Jiggle Free Arms today, it's cardio and sculpting for 30 min. Then I sweated to death at my son's flag football game and worked in the concession stand for one game.

Agotta, that sounds just like my problem. Bad allergies & sinus infection trigger it. I feel your pain. It is MISERABLE!!!

Hi Red Team,

I am so proud of myself. I got up this morning and since DH and the kids were sleeping on the air matress in the basement (Friday & Sat night is Family night), I could not use the treadmill. So I got dressed and went to the park and ran/walked 4.15 miles. Woo hooo! It felt so good to get out in the fresh air early in the morning and get my miles in. I knew I had to get my exercise in to earn some Weight Watcher Activity points since we were taking DS7 to the Japanese Hibatchi restaurant to celebrate his birthday. I was good all day with eating and I had saved enough flex points so all was still staying on plan. Now I am planning to eat low points till weight in on Tuesday so I make sure to have a good one.

Yesterday I went to Mexican for lunch at work so I only had one slice of my usual pizza for dinner instead of two to make up for the points.

Goldcupmom- Sorry your having the blues. Your life is definately crazy. It sounds about like mine so I know how it can definately give you the blues. Sorry to hear DS gymnastics schedule is so tough. That is a lot of airline tickets to buy. Pixiedust for a better day tomorrow.

Marty- Your day sounds like mine. I did the snack stand today and then watched his game. They won 18 to 8. It was cold here today though. Not really cold. I wore short sleeve and shorts all day but by half time it was getting chilly and I was downright cold by the end. It was in the 70's here today.

agotta-I hope you get better soon. Vertigo is not nice. I had it about a year ago. I would get it in the morning when I woke up and kept running into the wall and tv. It would eventually go away but would come back every so often. Finally it went away all together. Thanks for the recipe. Sounds yummy.

Here is my standard smoothie recipe:

1 cup fat free plain yogurt
1 banana
1 cup strawberries & pineapple
6 ice cubes.
Throw all in the blender and enjoy

Also, another great snack is to take frozen mango's and slightly thaw them. Then eat them as a frozen snack. Its so yummy, sort of like sherbert.

Laura- Sorry to hear your feeling sick too. Please take it easy and get better. Glad you got your exercise in yesterday.

monte- Great job on your workout! Keep up the great work.

Liz- I hope your walk went well tonight. I'm hoping to get my Ipod soon. I can't wait.

Mike - Hope you had a great day.


Geety & Quilt teddy- Thanks for stopping by.
