Halloween

I hope everyone has had a great weekend!

Just a reminder . . . our next meeting is tomorrow, 5:30 pm, at Ilene's. We'll set goals for November, find out who the October winner is (as if we don't already know!), encourage each other to continue on, and make plans for future activities. Please bring $5 for the fun fund and another $5 if you want to join in the November contest. To an extra healthy November!

Halloween Saturday

Looks like all of us skipped Friday. I am afraid some Halloween candy called to me today. I am starting over on Monday so whatever is not gone tomorrow is out of my house. Not many trick or treater's here. Our street is boring now, not any kids. Hope the rest of you resisited better than I did. Kathy I like you idea of healthy thinking. I guess I will do that today. I did get a 4 mile walk in. Happy Halloween.

Nearly Halloween

It is almost Halloween and I am proud to say that I have not eaten any Halloween candy this year. I had a great day today. I got in a 4 mile walk in the beautiful sunshine and did well nutritionally until a small box of mint covered fudge oreos fell into my shopping cart. Five oreos later I was mad at myself. They were yummy though. Hope you all had a great day. Looking forward to the meeting on Monday.

Wednesday

Congratulations Kathy and Cherie on your two day success! I'm sure that not only will you make it three, but many more.

Just a reminder that our next HLC meeting is coming up already. It's next Monday, 5:30 pm, at Ilene's.

I met my goals today.

Tuesday

I'm out of creative things to say at the moment.

It's been great to hear from everyone! You're all doing great, and I'm especially impressed with the fact that we keep picking ourselves up no matter how many times we "mess up."

Heather and I decided tonight that we're going to run the Salt Lake City half marathon in April. We plan to be super skinny by then, so it should be easy (haha). Anyone want to join us?????

I almost forgot, yes, I met my goals today and not just sort of like some people.

I can see clearly now the rain is gone...

Goals met for today...I hope I can lose the 15 by the end of the month...I'm pushin it! ...and pullin it...and movin it like crazy! This is harder than I thought...thanks for the motivation ladies! Happy Monday!

Hey

The rain is such fun. I have not been blogging because I have been a mess but I am not longer going to be one. You guys are doing so well, I appreciate your diligence and strength. 18 hours in a car with no M & M's is impressive, Ilene. The rest of you are impressive also. Way to go. Kathy, I love your funny posts. I too am blaming the last week on the mountain lion. I have no excuses this week.

cledus... just happens to be one of my favorite words for those folks who irritate me

Hola my Amigas!!! Happy Saturday. So far everything is going great for my goals today, I worked out alot and now my muscles are in rebelion and are twicthing and oh are they ever so sore. I have also managed to eat well and plan to continue. I will re-post if I don't make my goals but otherwise goals met here!

Friday

I am back from vacation. It was fun and I met my goals all week. (Even with M&M fumes in the car 18 hours!)

thursday smurthsday

I met my goals today. I exercised at the gym for 2 hours and feel great. Nothing beats the feeling of being covered in sweat after a good hard workout. Happy friday

Tuesday, WEDNESDAY . . .Happy days!

It took me all day to come up with a song about Wednesday, so I had to be the first to post! I'm not even sure if I got the words right.

I'm doing well so far, although it's only 7 p.m. so it may be too early to tell for sure. I'll report again tonight.

I hope you're all doing well and eliminating that fat so you won't be attractive to a roaming mountain lion.

Good Bye Ruby Tuesday...

Aren't all post supposed to be titled with a song in mind?? :0)

Met my goal so far this week!

We are women of POWER!!! Keep up the good work ladies!!

Monday

I can't believe I'm the first one to post today! It's way past my bedtime!

I'm doing well--met my goals. I hope all is well with the rest of you. Have a great week.

Sunday the 17th (2 weeks till Halloween . . . .)

. . . and I can wear my cool new witch hat!

Yesterday Lisa asked for the name of next month's book club book. I was wondering the same thing! For those going on the hike, we'll meet Friday at Cherie's at 6:30 am.

Happy birthday to Kathy!

Saturday is a special day...

...because I got to sleep in! :0) Sleeping is one of my favorite things to do.

I met my goals this week! Kickin it in to high gear on Monday...I meet with a trainer to get me going with more cardio & to start weight training---

Ok, so, what was the name of the book club book, and where on Friday do we meet for the hike??

Sorry to be 1st again

I do not mean to post first this often but the rest of you must be night owls. Once again I did not meet my goals, I would blame it on my company but that would be passing the buck. I will be gone to Colorado for the next 5 days and will probably not be able to post, so keep up the good work and wish me luck. I can blame those days on being the company. See you hikers at 6:30 a m on Friday.

Wonderful weather

I hiked cress creek today with 6 of the grandkids, such fun. I am afraid we took along some junk food so I did not meet my goals today. Great day though. Glad you are with us Lisa, congrats on the 5 pound loss.

Is everyone planning on hiking on the 22nd? Palisaides lakes, beautiful place. I believe it is 4 miles to the lower one and 7 to the upper one. The lower one is not very pretty but the upper is gorgeous. Not very steep. Hopefully the weather will be fine. Probably an all day event, leave at 6:30 to be back by 5 or so. Let me know if you are in.

Another beautiful sunny day. Yippee!

I am planning on meeting my goals today, since I have company coming it may be hard. I am posting early so I won't forget and also to remind you about the Wicked tickets. I plan to turn the order in on this Friday the 15th. We have 20 ordered so far but can order as many as we need. Please call or email me with the price you would like and the number of tickets. The prices again are $142.50 for the first 5 rows, $ 85, $ 67.50 and $ 52.50. We do not all have to order the same price. Please let me know ASAP. Good luck today.

Tuesday, Tuesday

OK. It doesn't sound as good a Monday, Monday. Oh sure, I leave town for a few days and all sorts of things happen. So proud of you guys that are doing so well but Heather had the best, most interesting news. Do tell. We want to know how you met and what he is like. So great for you. Can't wait for hike day so we have all day to get the scoop. Speaking of hiking who can go? Should we announce in R S again to see if others want to come?

I am three for three for the last 6 days. Some good and some bad. I weighed and I did not lose but I was just happy not to have gained. I did buy some fun clothes while in St George. Hope things are going well for all of you wonderful women.

Monday Monday

A little momma's and papa's for everyone. (you know you are hearing it in your head) I met my goals today. Life is soo good and yes I have details to give you all about this "friend" of mine. We are getting married next week! LOL totally kidding. No Jonathan and I are really enjoying each other's company and he really puts a smile on my face. I am smitten with the man thus far. We have spent everyday together since we met and I look forward to seeing what might happen with the relationship. He makes me laugh all the time and there is definitely chemistry. I pretty much think he is a cutie!

Happy Birthday to me

I am super proud to say that I met my goals today, even though it's my birthday. My friend who is a man ;) got me a cake and I didn't even eat a piece. I have eaten healthy and heading to the gym as soon as I finish this post. Have a great week everyone!!

last day for 33

Hola Friends! Hope everyone is having a great goal met weekend! I did get to the gym this morning for my 6 miles jog, and so far have eaten good. I plan to continue. Happy Saturday!

Friday

okay so this post is a day late....but I met my goals.

Thursday

Hola my amigos!! Darn me didn't make it to the gym because there is a guy that seems to be occupying my time as of late! :) So I met my nutrition goals but not exercise. Oh yes, friends there is a story to be told!

Wednesday, Oct. 6th

It was so great to see all the comments yesterday! And everyone is doing so well . . . I'm proud to be part of such a successful group.

It sounds like a few of us are going to be out of town this weekend. Ilene mentioned she's going somewhere, Cherie is going to St. George, and I'm going to Utah. Anyone else? I think it can be a challenge to stick to your goals when you're out of your regular zone, but I know we can do it. I'm glad I have to report to all of you because it makes me think twice before eating something I shouldn't.

I met my goals today by the way.

Hey

Way to go all of you met your goals yesterday. I met mine today. Feels good.

No title I am not feeling creative

I met my goals today. My goals are the same for October as they were for September. Maybe this month I will actually do them. Stay under 60 carbs a day. Exercise 6 days a week, 6 cardio days and 3 weight days also. Weigh every Monday. Keep an exercise and food journal each day. Hope your day is going well and your goals are being met. Thanks for your great inspiration.

Sunday the 3rd

We just got back from Salt Lake--a very nice weekend.

I met my goals today. I hope you all had a great weekend and are looking forward to a healthy week.

Saturday the 2nd

I'm posting on Sunday (in Salt Lake!), but if you get a chance, add your results for Saturday on this post.

It was a great day here--listening to conference, nice weather, etc.

I had some challenges, but I did meet my goals.

My goals for the month:
1. Strictly follow the pre-planned menu I created for the month.
2. Weight-lifting on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday
3. At least 30 minutes aerobic exercise on Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday
(P.S. My plan included NO Halloween candy!)

Ok, Here I Go....

Hey Ladies! Thanks for letting me know about the HLC. I'm thrilled! I'm a pretty motivated person, but lately I've had trouble motivating myself, so the HLC has come into my life at the perfect time! I definitely need your support and goal setting ideas to get me goin!

Today I set my October goals:

1. At least an hour of cardio 3x a week.

2. 100 crunches and 20 push-ups a day M-F

3. Get 15lbs. off my gorgeous body that is hiding underneath all this fat :0) tee hee

My goal for the outlet shopping trip is to be in a size 12.

I am excited for the bad habits I will lose and for the friends I will gain!

Thanks Again!
