Ok all here for motivation!!!!  

Cardio minutes

KT-195

chris-160

sheila-45

val-180

Yeah... that was the plan, Val... the videos that we're supposed to do every day are only about 10 minutes... I'm even behind on those!!!   I don't know what's wrong with me!!!  

Well I had anothe few ideas for CRP shot down... one really good one that I thought might be the one (again)... I'm getting so freaking frustrated!!!  And of course not help or alternatives are ever given!!!  Sigh.....   I don't know what the hell I'm going to do!!!

KT - hope you're feeling better!!!  Have you started the hunt yet??  Is it an all day thing?? 

So have you guys seen the Diet Tribe show??

Oh yeah, you did ask about that Diet Tribe show.  No, I haven't seen it but I do want to see how it is.  I've only heard the commercials for it so far.  I can't even remember what channel it's on.  Is it good?

It's on lifetime..... yeah I like it... it's just a group of friends doing it together... so it's a lot more "real life" to me than Biggest Loser... they have complaints... real life issues... and more realistic weight losses.... much easier for me to relate to!!!!!  I don't know if they have repeats or not.... but there's only been a couple episodes so far... maybe they're online??

Well I finally got off my lazy ass!!!!  I did one of my 45 minute videos... I thought I was gonna die at the beginning but I made it through the whole damn thing!!! It was actually an accident cause I convinced myself I could only do a 30 min one but put in the wrong disc... lol!!!!  I'm glad I did though!!!  

I'll have to set it on my DVR so I don't miss the next episode. 

Great job on getting started!!  45 minutes is really good too!  How are you feeling?

Pretty damn good!!!  I always do... that's why I can't figure out why I don't do it more!!!!

I saw the previews for that show, I'll have to catch an episode. It seems really motivational, though.

So we went dress shopping! It went great. It was pretty quick and I was hoping to try on more dresses. The lady actually seemed more concerned about the other girl she was helping. We found the style that looks good so taht's all that matters. We're going to another place on Saturday and I'm really hoping to find a dress there that I fall in love with. I felt goodin teh dresses, too. I was very happy that I wasn't super critical or anything.

and we got a wii fit! My mom found one at costco. I got on it for a while tonight and tried some different stuff. I can definitely see myself spending a lot of time on there!

Yay KT!!!!!  How's the Wii Fit??  Have you played anymore??? Do you guys both have one now?!?!?!  I'm so jealous!!!!!!!!!!!!!   I've heard mixed things about it... so you'll have to let me know if you guys really like it and get a lot of use out of it long term..... Was it less expensive at Costco, KT??

Well today was not a fun day to walk around the prison... OMG it was freaking freezing!!!!   I don't know what the actual temp was... I heard like -35 or something.... not fun!!!!  Poor Quincy doesn't like it either... he's limping after only like a minute out there!!!  His poor little paws!!!

Val?!?!  Chris?!?!?!

awww that sounds horrible sheila!!I feel so bad for you guys. It was almost 70 degrees today! I could never live anywhere besides california!

the wii fit is great. I havent' played it tonight, but probably will after i finish watching something. There are so many different things on there to do so it keeps you occupied for longer than you think. It cost about 80 bucks at costco. My mom walked outta there with 3 of them!

Well I did pretty well today. I was at about 725 cals when I left work (just coffee, half a nature valley bar, soup, and cheese its). I actually htink it might be a little less than that but o well. Dinner was 2 burritos w/ rice, beans, chicken, cheese, and sour cream. My tortiillas were only 80 cals a pop so I think I still did alright even though they were big burritos. I had a glass of wine for dessert. I'm really hoping I can get under 186 tomorrow! As long as I don't see 188 again I'll be happy.

yay!!! I was back to 185 this morning finally!!!

YAY!!!!!!!  Finally lots of good news coming from KT!!  Good dress shopping experiences, scale movement, a new WiiFit...YAY KT!!!!!!!!  I'm excited for you on all those fronts.

What have you played on the Fit so far?  Time can really fly on that thing, doesn't it??  You can play for a couple hours without blinking an eye!  Did you just want to kill your Mii when you weighed in on it?  I know I did.  Sheila, you should consider something like that to get Colin involved.  Even my DH will get into it with me and Lil'V.

Alright, I know Sheila already said this but DAMN IT IS COLD!!!!  Kt, have you seen that movie The Day After Tomorrow?  You know the scene when everything freezes and there is frost crawling on the walls and stuff...yeah, that's my doors!  You guys have to read the first part of my journal today, it's dedicated to the cold.  Lol 

My scale died this morning...or maybe just the last time I used it.  I laid it on the floor and it did nothing, no lights, no ERR, no -BATT-, absolutely nothing.  I'll try a new battery but I don't think that's it.  I think it's time for a new one.

185!!!!  WTG KT!!!!  WOOOOHOOOOO!!!!!   *Jumping up and down*!!!   Wow!!!  All that excitement just helped ME burn a couple cals... lol!!!!  

I'd love to join you guys on the Wii Fit.... but I'm going to have to wait 'till there's like an 80% off sale or something... lol!!!  I put it on my Christmas list... but no luck!!!  I wish Borders had video games.... I get Borders gift cards with my credit card points!!!  I could get one for free basically!!!

Well I finally got my hair cut last weekend... makes my life a lot easier... lol!!! And I decided to dye it... cause I do that every so often.... so I went red this time and it so came out pink... lol!!!  That's what I get for trying to do it myself!!!  So luckily the place I got it cut is having a 30% off sale on color right now so I'm going to get it fixed today... lol!!!  I always get weird colors when I try to do it myself.... one time I had this super bright orange... but at least it was Bears season... lol!!!!

Well I'm hoping to get in another video today... or maybe even pop in my personal trainer for my PS2 that I haven't used in FOREVER!!!!

Yippeee!!!  It warmed up about 20 degrees!!

Sheila, I think I remember you mentioning when your hair was orange.  I mostly remember it because you mentioned Bears season.   I need a hair cut too.  Well, really just a trim.

Oh boy, I don't feel like working the rest of today.  I've been so busy here at work for the longest time that today, I feel like just kicking back and making a few simple tasks last forever.  BUT, I have to rotate accounting files...out with the old year, in with the new.  That should be some decent exercise at least.

And it's still below zero!!!  How sad is that!??!  Lol!!

Well I've been gone all day!!  Colin's car wouldn't start... hopefully just cause of the cold.... so I had to take him to work... then I had my appointment... now I have to leave to go pick him up again in about an hour!!!  Sigh.... 

Now he's gonna have to exercise with me tonight!!!  Hah!  

Any big plans for the weekend??

what a long long day!!!! I was dead exhausted all day and just glad to be home. I had a bagel this morning,t hen we went to round table's lunch buffet for lunch. I was stuffed!!!! So I'm not plannign on eating dinner.

I can't believe that weather you guys are dealing with. I hope you are staying safe!

sheila, I thought you were chris at first b/c she has almost the exact same headshot! Is that your new haircut???? I like the color! I like actually seeign your face too!

val, the fit is so much fun. Tiem does definitely fly when you are on it. I'm hoping to get a bit of time in on it this weekend, and especially tonight. I noticed that yesterday I was a little sore from teh yoga poses. I only did the half moon but my sides definitely felt it!I'm excited to do some more stuff on there and open up some new activities!!!

well i hope you both have a good weekend. Hopefully i'll have a great wedding dress to show you on sunday!!

TY TY... I like this color a lot better too... lol... you shoulda seen the pink... it was awful!!!  

We treated ourselves to Olive Garden tonight.... yum!!!!  I did pretty good... only 1 1/2 breadsticks and only like 1/4 of my pasta... I'd say that's pretty damn good for me... Olive Garden is my fav!!!  

Have you been taking pics, KT??  Or will you be taking some tomorrow??

wow that's really good sheila! I can't eat only that much. It's just sooo good!

My friend did take pics the other day, but not quite as many as I had hoped. For some reason it won't let me upload them here. I need to set up a shutterfly account or something so you guys can look at them. Maybe i"ll do that right nwo!

Ok, here's the link! Tell me if it works or not....
