You guys are my ray of sunshine in an otherwise dark and dreary morning.

Good morning, can you believe we only have one week left to Ohana October?? And then our luau comes to and end. But don't be sad, I've never been to a luau but I imagine that right near the end is where the grand-finale comes in. So let's channel our inner fire-dancers and end this month with some changes of color, some serious skill and a blaze of glory!!! Speaking of changes of color.... Congratulations of Disneybelle99 who joined Purple Power!! On our quest to for the family to end as great-grey-go-getters -we are currently at 56.79% Total minutes needed to reach 75% - 3,481. Remember - Just because I cannot see it, doesn't mean I can't believe it! - Jack Skellington SarahDisney - I hear you about the rain. I don't know where you live, but here in Maine I am getting a bit tired of it. Disneybelle - I'm glad you're feeling better. It was great to see your post. Bangzoom6877 - I hope the scale was kind to you this morning, but try to remember it's just a number. I weigh in weekly, but I also take my measurements and I've noticed that it's not uncommon that on weeks that the scale doesn't reflect the work, the tape measure does. But the ultimate proof is often found in the way you feel. Do you have a bit more swagger in your steps? do you feel stronger? can you do more in your workouts than you could before (go further? go faster? lift heavier? etc...) Do your nutrition improvements leave you feeling more peaceful about your food choices? If you answered "yes" to any of those questions - then no matter what the scale says, you're doing something very, very right and you should do a little happy dance to celebrate that!

Personally, I need to get my exercise butt in gear if I want to meet my goal.
