Good to hear I'm not alone guys. Everyone think warm thoughts I guess. Janie, you are kidding right?!!? :p I looked at a map and the temps there are all between mid 60's and 80's to the south with what appears to be no to little cloud cover right now or am I reading the map wrong? Gayle...

Oh sweetie, While I have been blessed and have not experienced depression myself, I totally understand (from an external view). Depression (along with Bipolar and schizophrenia) runs in my Mom's side of the family. I'm glad to hear you're going to the Doctor to get help with that. It's also...

Okay this year Mother Nature decided the Northern Midwest did not deserve summer or even a fall so far. After a fairly mild winter, spring was cold and really rainy. It finally started getting into the seventies in late June and the eighties in July. We only got to the nineties once or twice...

It looks like it's been around for a bit, but it was funny. :) I agree, Wind Beneath My Wings always cracks me up. It was one of the songs played during dinner at our wedding and I always think of my Maid of Honor cheesing it up and singing it when I hear it. :D

Hi Becky, :( Sorry to hear about your slip. But you need to remember that they are expected. What was your trigger? Your family was home. Were you celebrating? watching your daughters eat? stressed with all the extra things going on? depressed because your time with your daughters was up...

Good Morning, I know it's no longer Tuesday, but I figured I would pop in here instead of starting a new thread. I was gone the weekend, and have been doing my best impression of a slug during my "recovery" week after completing Insanity. I have a plan of attack finally. I will be doing...

Okay, I'm clearly in the minority here. I would totally get a kick out of using either of those bathrooms. Perhaps it's the advantage of having a dominant left brain??? :rolleyes: That or after spending a week rafting the Grand Canyon were the "Groover" was "isolated" but still wide open...

Eunice, How exciting!!! Let the games begin. ;):eek: You can now change your siggy.... as soon as you're done with more .. ahem.. important things.. :) ETA: I just took a look at the pics. How adorable. Thanks for sharing. Seeing the family back together warmed my heart. My...

I'm sorry to hear you had to put up with this for so long before the doctor even noticed. :( I also had a cyst on my ovaries back when I was a teenager. I was lucky and had a really good GP who diagnosed it quickly (he was older and that was the standard when he became a doctor). He put me...

Becky, Both are great ideas and fit in perfectly with the baby step mentality you are smartly following. I tend to be an all or nothing kind like you have been in the past. I go directly from being completely healthy to not at all. However, based on your post from yesterday I did go to...

Good Morning, Today was a "play day" for me. I wasn't sure what I wanted to do. Then I remembered I have a power tower that I've only used to try pull-ups with, so I decided to try some of my 1RM tests and play with my new tower. I did the chest and back 1RMs from Meso 3. They came out...

I've never seen them before, but I'm sure my reaction would have been a chuckle followed by an eye roll. :rolleyes: I don't understand why anyone would want to hang them from their vehicle (or anything else for that matter), but they don't offend me. Of course I don't have any children that...

Final Fit Test DONE! Yeah, My numbers went up on everything except globe jumps. That I actually went down 1 from last time (I was still going strong at the end so I obviously paced myself instead of pushing :rolleyes:) My final numbers: Exercise FT1 Final FT Switch Kicks 58...

:( Sorry this has happened between you and your daughter. Disclaimer, I am not a mother so my only qualification on advice is based on once being a 17 year old girl. The thing to remember is that your daughter is obviously still grieving and what she said was part of that grieving triggered...

Becky... Opps, I figured the ice cream comment out after reading your post a couple time and I must have edited my response while you were responding to my reply, so sorry for the confusion to everyone else. :o and more importantly, Woo.to.the.who on the report back from the doctor...

Yesterday was pretty good. I went out for dinner and ate healthy choices and a reasonable amount. I came home and the DH had chips and the cranberry salsa I had just made the day before. I had about 3 chips with some salsa and stopped (it helped I wasn't really hungry), The good news is I...

Hey Ya'll., Today was CA and MCC. Whew! Not pretty, but done. I would have liked to have gone out on a stronger note, but it was what it was. :p I'm going to try and get to bed early tonight and make sure I get more sleep before my final fit test. My last few nights have been slightly...

Ditto!!!!!!

Since checking in really helps I'm going to start a new thread, since I feel this is a new beginning for me this week. Sandra, You're probably right, continuing to read up on this is probably as important as planning. It helps keep all these ideas in the forefront of our brains. I will have...

Good Morning Y'all, I did MIP this morning. It took a bit for me to get into this one, but I felt good afterwards. I have a hard time believing I'll be able to beat my 4th fit test results, but I'll be sure to give it H$LL. :D Roselyn, I love to see your enthusiasm. It reminds me of how...
