Hey Miss Wendy! Thanks for stopping by.
How are you doing? You went for a walk way back then, stopped for fries and a beer and were never heard from again on these boards. That's why I never let my kids go out unsupervised!
.
I had forgotten about that...
Great going, Amy! That is so challenging when you're sick but you've been able to do it! That should just give you so much encouragement. You will see the 170s and soon. 
I still got all the flavor, just not the volume. I even had her split the portion for us so I know it was even.
Sounds like a lot of people here are on the mend as well as finding their way back to the thread! Yeah!
As for me, I have really picked up the exercise since my 5k walk on wednesday. I have been in the gym twice since then and worked out doing cardio for over an hour each time. I also went to a parade on saturday and walked all over town with my kids. I have been staying on plan...using a few of my weekly allowance points here and there but getting in all my water and doing better with my fruits, veggies, and dairy. I even got take out from my fav restaruant yesterday but only got one order instead of two and split the one order with my mom.
Hope everyone is having a great day! And I hope I can keep up with the working out...I have to work a 16 hour day tomorrow and then tuesday I am hoping to go to work out even though I have the 4-12 shift today so will get little sleep tonight and have the 8-4 shift tuesday so will get little sleep monday night. That is going to take some major dedication to go work out after all that! I think I can I think I can I think I can.

Also thanks for that WW link, and congrats on signing up for the WDW marathon!!!! 
I am scared to step on the scale! Good thing it's only Monday and I have a few days until I have to. I was out all day yesterday supervising 6 girls at the Adventure Dome which is an indoor amusement park. They loved it, but there was nothing to eat all day but junk. Like being at a carnival or something. And I was starving most of the day, so my food choices were horrible all day long.
Oh well. Today is a new day. Have a good one ladies!!
you all! You are the BEST!
Hi all - We had a busy weekend and DBF and I had planned to run yesterday -he's trying to help get me motivated but we slept in instead but I pinkie promised him I'd run today...so I AM GOING TO RUN LATER tonight...wish me luck and I'll check in to let you all know how it goes.
I am so proud of all of you for sticking with the diet and exercise programs! I'll get it back together - it's just taking me a little while. Running tonight will be a good start!
Thank you all for your kind words, encouragment and support! I
TTFN!
We've had such great weather, there's no excuse. I wanna hear about the run!I just wanted to come and report that I worked out today on my elliptical for 20 minutes. My face was purple for 3 hours and now it's still red, but I got it done and now it'll will all be easier. I was going to the other day but my pain has been horrible lately and finally today I was like "to hell with it, I'm hoppin' on!" It was easy until about the last 3 minutes. I had Harry Potter on but my eyes were closed for that last bit just to get it over with. I'm rather proud!
Still being careful. We'll see the doc and the trainer tomorrow.
I can't say I've ever been purple in the face like that... it was leaning more towards red, but my complexion could have made me look that way? I felt great afterwards, but now my body is killing me! It's a good pain though I guess.... well a healthy pain anyway.Purple? Is that good? As long as you're feeling good...
I did 35 min on the elliptical, again slow but a bit faster than last time. I feel much more like myself too.
I did have 1/2 of a doughnut tonight but I counted it in my points and I looked up the points before I ate it. I have to say the temptation has been there today with a certain visitor come to call, but I did pretty well. I need to go to the gym tomorrow after work, but I always seem to have a hard time doing that at this point in the month.
So Vicki, did ya run, huh, huh, did ya, huh? I hope you did and I hope you had fun!
I am still at work but I am eating peas, so we are all good
Anyway, good luck to all who are struggling, you can do it!

How's everyone else doing?
We have had great cool running weather but I could use some more sunshine! Isn't this CA after all?? Those travel commercials show sunshine! I understand there is this thing called June Gloom here but I like sunshine and blue sky! 
I did! I ran...it wasn't too bad either but then I feel like I cheated a little because I chose a route where I'd have some downhill terrain! It's not downhill the entire time it's a route where I walk to the top of the hill...someday I'll run it..hahah! Then I run across the hill on a flat area and then down for a couple of blocks then across on flat ground for awhile then down for awhile and then across on flat again. Oh well at least I got out there
and ran 2.25 miles. I think I've found my motivation again. I did however wake up with a sore throat and stuffy nose but I feel ok not great but not bad either and I plan to run tomorrow anyway.
Yes, funny pink swear huh? You cannot break a pinky swear...EVER!
Glad your back is continuing to improve!
PS I am so excited for the backstage tour next week and seeing you again!
I'm sooo happy you made that run! I have to say, this is the coldest June we can ever remember. This is much worse than the normal June Gloom. You know global warming is also the reason for unusually cold weather... 
I am really excited to see such progress and hope the group can continue through the summer. We have lost a number of people, though we have got some more signed up as well. I think we usually have close to 30 that send in their weights.
