Centered about 20 miles from our house!!!! I'll tell you more about it later. Very little damage at our house. Thank goodness. We are all fine. I got a run done earlier today. Not sure if the planned bike ride will get done tomorrow. (Need to evaluate the bike for damage still.) Glad you're o.k. and that there was little damage to the house. Isn't it funny after family and house, the next thing we think about is our bike? ![]() Ha ha! I know! When my husband went down to our detached garage, he checked on my tri bike to make sure nothing fell on it. It was just fine, too. All of my babies are accounted for and in good health! |

Elite ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() dimplespoo - 2010-01-10 5:26 PM Got a walk and core in today. And the best news came this morning. I am down to 139.8 on the scale. The first time in three years that I have been in the 130s. I know this because I was 143 when I moved from Alaska to Oklahoma and have never seen the 130s since. I am stoked.. Wha hoo... Only 4.8 to go to goal.. Stacie ~sigh~ I'll get back there some day, too. Congrats on reaching a very awesome goal! |

I am down to 139.8 on the scale. The first time in three years that I have been in the 130s. I know this because I was 143 when I moved from Alaska to Oklahoma and have never seen the 130s since. I am stoked.. Wha hoo... Only 4.8 to go to goal.. Stacie ~sigh~ I'll get back there some day, too. Congrats on reaching a very awesome goal! You will get there. You just had a little one. Mine was 3 years of not really caring since it was just a couple lbs here or there. Then hubby's doctor suggested we cut down the calories a bit by reducing sugar and fat. I haven't had anything with sugar (except fruits/veggies etc) that have had sugar in them since Xmas Day. It has been tough - the other day I had a bad day and wanted a big bowl of ice cream but we didn't have any. Hubby and I have been going for almost 3 weeks and no one has cheated. At this point it is the "I don't want to be the one that cheats first game". It has made hubby drop almost 16 lbs and he is doing great. He is finally seeing that losing the weight he feels better, he can now wear his military blues without being sucking it in. So hopefully in a couple weeks when we take what we learn and start adding fat/starch/sugar back in slowly that we realize we didn't need as big of portions for him and I didn't need to eat that peanut granola bar that wasn't the best for more or the chocolate and nut trail mix and if I do I have a small portion not the 3 serving size bag.. So we will see. I haven't had a problem maintaining before so I hope I and hubby don't either. But I have to admit right now it is nice to be at this weight. ![]() You will get there. I know you will. Stacie |

Member ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() Whew.. I'm back in the game. That cold wiped me out. I think I nearly slept for three days straight. Only got a measly mile done today after being sick for a week, but I got out there! It was 27 degrees outside, you'd think it was January. Oh wait... Tomorrow morning I'm headed for the pool.
Go Warriors! |

Go Warriors! A mile is not measly after being sick that long especially in 27 degrees. Glad you are doing better! |

Regular ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() Morning people! Things have been fine in my neck of the woods. Busy, but good. This week, I start the next phase of my training - including more water aerobics and starting my intermediate swimming classes. Those will no doubt kick my (more the latter than the former). Tonight, I start my meditation class so I can become a member of the zendo. I've been meditating since 2005, but I finally decided to take the leap. Catch y'all later. Riley |

Elite ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() It seems to be a swimming day for many. I too have a swim session today....probably about 1/2 hour. Did ST last night. |
![]() ![]() |
Regular ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() Crews, I have been doing water aerobics for a year and a half or so. I love it. The instructor is really nice and the workout isn't terribly rigorous, so I'll likely use it as a warm up for the big show - intermediate swimming - since they're on the same night. ![]() My favorites are the pot stirrers with the barbells. Take care, Riley |

Master ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ![]() I did a 1 hour bike trainer ride and crossfit today towards the challenge. I do aqua aerobics too. I have been swimming with a local tri team on Monday and Thursday evenings. These aren't part of my challenge goals though. If some of the people on our team aren't posting their workouts the captain should contact them and if they don't respond they get cut. Check with D001 Dee on that. |

I know you will. Stacie 130's is only a dream for me! I was there once.....a very long time ago! Even with all I do I still struggle with my weight! I have been with weight watchers since Nov. 2007, hit lifetime in Nov. 2008 with a Dr. note to go 5lbs over their recommended weight. I still have a hard time keeping in my 2lb range! I have lost 17 lbs but have gone down from a size 16 to a 6/8 depending on the pants. but the number on the scale is still not where I want it to be...165. would love to see the 150's at least! |
