Week 9

We all lost 1 lb apiece.....
Me - 13 lbs
Kelly - 11 lbs
Erin +1 lb

Erin had a bad week. She was still sick but, better now. Plus, she had a rather traumatic event w/her dog.
I haven't been active this past week at all. Except for cleaning and laundry, I have been pretty sedentary. No walking, because it rained most of last week.
Kelly is still renovating, but, I also think she's still doin the Dew.

Spring has officially sprung, and I hope to get out more and walk and I know the girls will do the same.

Spring Is Here!!

Yes it is!! The dogwoods are trying to bloom, the white more than the pink. The tulips are almost all in bloom. The grass has had it's first spring mowing and the front porch has been swept and straightened. The pair of redtailed hawks that built their nest in the big fur tree across the street are back and the golf carts are all washed, charged and on the go! And today, yes today finally, I'm opening up the windows and taking off the long sleeved top!

Week 8

Me -2 Total 12
Kelly - 1 Total 10
Erin +2 Total +2

Erin has been sick all week. She still is. She's been in bed or on the couch and has not been active AT ALL. She said she was going to go out for a walk today, even if she can't breathe, in hopes of feeling better.

I think all of us were a little worried what w/Easter and all the feasting that is done long after the holiday is over. They both have little ones that have chocolate, jelly beans, eggs, peeps, marshmallow eggs..the whole 9 yards.. Kelly had so much that she brought us out some....Whoopie! So, I was doing some cheating this week, as well. I tried to not gorge the chocolate...I took bites once in a while, and it saved my arse, big time!!

Kelly is in the process of renovating and moving, so she has been very active this week, so the candy didn't take it's toll too badly.

Here's hoping that Erin gets to be more active and Kelly's kids Easter candy is gone and I can get out and get some more walking in this week and all 3 of us are big losers next week.

It's Getting Closer...

Warm weather and sunshine is getting closer to becoming a regular event! The tulips are starting to bloom, and it looks like there is weeding to be done, as well!Since moving out here to the boonies, we have been able to do some of the things that we love, but rarely got to do in the city. Stargazing is one of those things. Try to look at the stars in the sky while you're in the city..Venus and a few scattered other stars. Go out to the country and the sky is filled w/stars!! I LOVE it!! Most nights after I'm done working, I will go out to the side yard and just look up...I never tire of it.The other thing is bonfires!! One of the first things we did when we moved out here was build a firepit..A HUGE firepit. With all of the severe weather we've had in this past year, there is more than enough tree limbs to pile on for a magnificent first bonfire!

Week 7

Yeah, I know, we missed a week...It was a bad week for all, so we decided to ignore it..

Kelly -4 total 9
Me -2 total 10!!
Erin +2 total 5

Kelly is the big winner this week..Don't know how..she's still doin the Dew..

Erin...Aunt Flo decided to pay a visit..

Me...I'm very happy w/myself! I hit that first 10lb loss. It took a long time to get to that point, but, we are all hoping that w/the eventual break into warm weather, we will all be able to get out and walk more and make the losses mount up quicker.
