Great Job!!!!!

[booey2]

Good morning, lets just say I didn't get enough sleep, Thomas woke up a couple of times. But I am feeling okay, sitting at work eating my breakfast just trying to get the day started. I have almost met my goal for activity and my knee doesn't feel so bad. Tommorow is WI day, I am not as nervous as last week but I did have a few obstacles to overcome this weekend so we will see how I do. Gonna run but will check in throughout the day.

Thanks for the encouragement Jeanie, don't worry your enthusiasm will return.

Good morning all, I met my activity goal this week and surpassed it again. I just seem to be doing a lot more than usually, don't know why. I did have a few gummy treats but I don't regret eating them and did work them off. Today I WI after work so I am eating my regular lunch and drinking my water. Off to do some work now, will try and check in later.

Good evening, wanted to post a quick post, I stayed the same this week, I think because of the birthday party, BBQ & Baseball and all the exercise I was doing I either put on more muscle, am holding water, or all the snacks got me. On to another week. Will check in, in the morning. Good Night.

Good morning, now onto Week 3 of WW CORE. I stepped up my workouts last week and am going to do it again. The scale may not be my friend right now as my body adjusts to the extra activity but the measuring tape is . My clothes are looser, yeah. Okay, I have had my breakfast and am working on my water, goal today is 3 litres. This week will be quieter as we don't have anything planned yet, probably prep work for the pool my mom is giving us and more gardening. Going to go do some work, will be back later.

Good morning, I am a little tired as last night was the Spring Concert at school, Thomas(JK class -first act of the night) did the Bird dance and danced to another song. Matthew's class(Grade 2) sang 3 songs, Memory, Jerusalem My Destiny and I'll Be There For You (Friend's theme). The all did wonderfully, too bad my camera sucks and we couldn't get them in the act as the pics were too dark. We are gonna buy a new one soon. After the concert we went to Dairy Queen and I didn't get anything or even lick the chocolate sauce off my fingers that the boys spilt on me. Then we got home, fought with them to go to bed. Once they were all settled, 9pm I went down and did 30 mins on the gazelle and then had my yummy dinner, couscous with tommatoes, frozen corn and cottage cheese. And had a snack of popcorn.

I am feeling pretty good today, I will exercise again tonight, hopefully it won't be so late. Drink up your water.

Good for you, getting down there and doing 30 minutes after a busy night!

[booey2]

Thanks Jeanie, I really didn't wanna do it, then DH asks if I am up to his activity, so I got some more activity in a little later.

[booey2]

Good morning back at work today til noon, got my 30 minutes in last night. Can't wait to go home gotta go and do some work to justify my being here.

Drinking my water.

Terri

[booey2]

Good evening, can you say exhausted. I don't know how much long I can do 6 day work weeks. Today flew by at the office. I did get on the gazelle again tonight so my 30 minutes are done, come on Wednesday night. My mom is coming up tommorow and we are going biking down by the water at the bluffs. It should be fun, we are all going. Going to go to bed real soon. See ya sometime tommorow.

Terri

[booey2]

Boy where did my weekend go? I did manage to get in another 30 minutes on Sunday, but it was bike riding with my family. My tushy hurts now. Don't have much time today but will try and get back here again later.

Drink your water.

Terri

[booey2]

Good morning all you lifestyle changers you. Sorry I didn't get back on but work is crazy and I had to deal with computer issues at the office as I am the tech person here LOL . We walked over to Matthew's game last night so I got 20 extra minutes of exercise but I am not going to track it, I got on the gazelle again for my regular 30 minutes and I have tracked that. Gonna run again, work is calling, will check in later if I can, sitting at my desk drinking my water.

WAHOO TERI!! WTG! You're doing great. Keep up the good work. And great job with keepign CORE and the water. YOU CAN DO IT!!

[booey2]

Wow, another week gone and I completed my activity goal, YES. So tonight I weight in and get a rest from activity. I may actually get on the gazelle, all depending on how I am feeling after my meeting. I managed to get in more then 3 litres of water(24-8oz glasses) so that should make up for Sunday. I am PMS'ing but you would never know, I think the way I am eating has a huge effect on it. Okay off to do some work and drink my water. I will be back again later. Any of you other losers go get your water now and drink up.


Terri

PS Carrie,

Thank you very much for your encouragement, it means a lot to me.

Good evening, just a quick note to say I have lost 4.2 pounds this week for a grand total of 8, yes 8 pounds gone from body never to return.

Terri

[booey2]

Good morning one and all. I just posted a message and then my connection failed. AGH. Anyway, I am on to week for 4 of a great phase in my life. I am now 8 pounds lighter and feel great. I told the boys this morning what did last night and Matthew stops me and says "Mom let me look at you" so he did and then says "Hey you do look different." Now I know that 8 pounds isn't going to be noticable yet but hey he brightened my day. Gotta run, lots to do here at work.

Grab you water girls and guys because we are smokin' in here.

Terri

Congratulations Terri!!!! I am so proud of you. Awesome weight losses. You go girl! Keep up the great work.

Sorry I haven't been on to support you or even write in my journal. I'll be back soon, I hope.

[booey2]

Thanks Karen, No worries, I know you are real busy, just remember that you have to put yourself first sometimes or you will get lost in the shuffle.

Hugs

Good morning, back at work and thanking the stars it is Friday and I don't have to work tommorow. Yahoo. I got in 31 minutes last night at 9pm even thou I would have rather gone to bed, by the time I got there DH was sound asleep and there was no way I could wake him for other activity points that he wanted earlier. Oh well, The boys all slept thru the night that meant I got a good nights sleep. I am sitting at work drinking my water and just waiting for the staff to arrive. Things are great in my little world today. Gotta run will check in later.

Terri, chug-a-lug

[coasterqueen]

You are so funny Terri. Great job on the workout, though. And I could use a good nights sleep, can you send it my way?

Keep up the good work!

[booey2]

Glad I could make you laugh today. As for the sleep, it is only a fluke that they sleep thru the night. It usually one or the other that gets up. Thanks again.

Terri

Good afternoon, I got in my workout last night and even did a little more than the 30 minutes. We are getting ready to head out to Matthew's soccer pictures then we are going to rent a tiller to dig up the ground in prep for the pool. It is scorching out there but we gotta do it before next weekend because it arrives on Saturday next week. Gotta fly because time is getting close to pictures, I will check back in later.

Drinking tons of water.


Terri

[booey2]

Ok, we spen from 6pm tonight til 10pm digging that darn hole, the pool better get used a lot this summer and the summers to come because my hands are killing me and they are covered in blisters. I did not get on the gazelle but I figured 4 hours of intense yard work and digging we worth at least my 30 minutes of activity if not more. I will get on the gazelle tommorow only if I don't spend my morning hours, after giving daddy breakfast in bed, working out in the yard again. Okay my hand are screaming to stop all this typing so I am going to go to bed now after a little snack and more water I am thirsty, .

Both boys went to be real late so they should sleep in, I can only hope right?

Good night I will check in tommorow.

Terri

[booey2]

Good morning, all I can say is I never wanna dig another hole in my lifestime without rent a backhoe. At least the blisters on my palms were reabsorbed into my body and the only one that hurts is the one that ripped open. Other than that I feel pretty good. Thank goodness I started working out 4 weeks ago or I would be a mess today. I didn't get on the gazelle Saturday or Sunday because of all the yard work we did, but I will get on it tonight after soccer. I am feelng really good these days, even with AF trying to show up 4 days early, agh. I think it is because of all the weeks she was late and the exercise I am doing now. Oh well at least she will be here before we go to the cottage and I won't have to worry about it. Okay gotta run, work is crazy, DH had a good fathers day and we are celebrating this Saturday with a big blast with our family.

Drinking my water and working away here.

Oh what a beautiful morning here in Toronto. I am really starting to feel good abou the changes I am seeing in me. My moods have calmed down and I have the most gorgeous fingernails that I have seen, I am a nail bitter and before switching to CORE they broke all the time. Now I have no worries. We walked to Matthew's soccer game, them lost in a blowout, then I got on the gazelle again and had a great workout, the best I have had since before my knee got hurt about a month ago. I was feeling good last night. Ok, today is a little slower but not by much here, so I am gonna run, will try and get back here later. Have a great day and drink your water.
