I have really done pretty well today.  I stayed OP today without using my Flexies OR swapping my Activity Points!    I got up this morning and walked 3 miles with my WATP tape.  I also did the poses and techniques from my You Can Do! Yoga DVD.  We also cleaned today!  Although my whole weekend should have been spent cleaning…I got in some family time and some cleaning…and some exercise!

I certainly did not forget to say a prayer for our soldiers and the families who have to be without family members in order for us to have the freedoms that we have.  For any member of those families that are here in that situation, thank you.  I know it can’t be easy for you.

As a new member of the Hot Rods, let me just say…LET’S HAVE A GREAT WEEK, HOT RODS!

Heading to be one of the newest big s!

Take care and God bless!

  As hard as it is for me to get through it (as I sit there counting the minutes until I am finished with it!), I feel so much better after my workout!  I walked my two miles…worked a little on my upper body, but probably not as much as I should!  I feel so much better now that I have finished it for the day!  I took a couple days off last week and I could feel it!  I got tired so much earlier in the evening!  I guess even on the days when I’m not going to do 2 miles, I need to at least take a leisurely walk or something else!  It’s all about choices!  Just like WW…and I’m doing pretty good there so far too.  Trying to make better food choices!  I was so excited that the scale showed my efforts last week.  I hope it shows again this week!  Weigh in is on Tuesday so I’m very excited!

Good morning buddies!  I’m very excited!  I got on my mother’s scales this morning and it said 179!  I’m not logging that in as I am going to wait until I officially weigh in on Tuesday at my new meeting.  I definitely think I’m going to like this meeting.  It’s not too crowded and the leader seems a lot like my leader in McKinney.  I’m hoping it continues to be a good fit.  I managed to get in a total of 10 pounds last week (Sat. through Wed.).  I will be working out in a bit so I can start my week off right!  Wishing everyone a great Memorial Day weekend!

Take care and God bless!

I am very excited about yesterday’s weigh in!  It really makes me feel like I’m making headway finally!  I was a little down last week when I weighed in and it showed a gain…and then earlier this week when I got the word that one of the interviews I had to reschedule from last week had decided not to interview me at all.  I did manage to reschedule my other interview.  It went positively, but we have to wait and see if a case settles before we can go to the next step.  I’m excited that it went so well and I’m praying that I hear from them soon!

I hope everyone has had a great OP day!

Take care and God bless!

I weighed in tonight and I AM SO EXCITED!  I have lost a grand total of (drum rolls please) 16.2 pounds!  It makes this 8 miles I’ve done this week (starting Saturday) seem completely worth it!    I’m less than 3 pounds away from my first 10%!!!!!!  Soon I will be able to tell the 180’s [waving hand] “See ya!!!!” finally!

I hope all my buddies are doing well and having a GREAT OP DAY!

Tracey

Good morning to all my buddies!  I’ve walked my 2 miles, had breakfast and showered already!  Just wanted to check in and wish everyone a great OP day!

I started the day out pretty well though!  Alarm went off at 4:45 and I started my 2 Mile walk this morning at 5:00 a.m.!  I’m excited because I made a point to get up and get it out of the way!  WOO HOO! 

Well, this week I am staying with a friend so I can save on gas money!  I will be back later!

Take care and God bless!

Hey Buddies!  Well, this morning didn’t start out so well.  I made some bad food choices!  I knew it was going to take me over my Daily Points, but I wanted it so I did it anyway!  The good news is…that I didn’t just eat it and do nothing….I got my  butt up and walked 2 miles with my Walk Away the Pounds tape (the first one with the Walk Away Weights - although my weights are MIA).  My son and I had bought some small weights (ring type) at a garage sale that I could use in place of the Walk Away Weights.  After that I did the Walk Away the Pounds 10 Minute Tone-Up.  Even though I slipped, I GOT BACK UP…instead of giving up!!!!

Take care and God bless!

I went to my son’s theater banquet last night.  I am so proud of him! He is officially a thespian!  They decided to do without officers and are going with a board of directors.  My baby is on the BOD!  I’m so proud!  He also got a “gag” award last night called “Most Likely to be Everywhere”!  He has helped out even when he really didn’t have to or when the theater teachers weren’t expecting him to.

My mother’s scale showed about a 3 pound loss.  I walked a total of 5 miles last week…and I’m starting my week out right!  I’ve already walked 2 miles today!  I hope everyone is doing great on their plans!

Take care and God bless!

I missed my interviews today…I did contact them and ask to reschedule.  I just hated to do it…but we had a client that was insisting on having a contract by 5 pm today!  My attorney says it’s my own fault because if I weren’t so good, she might have entrusted someone else with it!  I guess it’s like a double edged sword!

Off to bed…tomorrow is another day and I really need to get my walk in tomorrow!

Have a great OP day all!

Take care and God bless!
