I started running in May of 2006 while losing 85 lbs after my youngest was born.  I have 6 fantastic kids, 3 girls and 3 boys and a wonderful husband.  My oldest is in college and my baby is in pre-school. (Six kids in 5 schools ;)

Can you say FORTY QUARTS of homemade applesauce?

I am feeling much better :D  My weight is holding steady, which is very normal for me.  I lose over about a week and then hold for 2-3, then lose again.  I have been holding for a few weeks, so hopefully I'll be ready to start dropping again soon.

This week, I am going to play my mileage by ear.  I will plan for 5 a day with 10-12 for saturday.  We will see how it goes.  Lately all plans have been shot down, so flexibility is key!

I am off for another church adventure with the kids!  Whoo Hoo!  I get to sing a duet today, which should be fun :)  I love to sing with Shanelle.  She has the most BEAUTIFUL voice :)

All of that, and you can sing, too!!! WOW. I have always wished I could sing, really!

Way to go on the weight. I have had too much food this weekend, so I am not going anywhere NEAR a scale until Wednesday of this week. I can not afford to FREAK right now.

Here is to a GOOD week and be able to meet or exceed our goals and plans!

I am jealous you can sing too. I have to fake sing in church or I will embaress myself.

Way to go on holding on to your loss, I totally understand that. You are making such great progress!

Wait, you made 40 quarts of applesauce? And... you sing too? Wait, for real?? Is this humanly possible for a woman to be so amazing and nice at the same time? YES, IT IS AND IT'S YOU!!! I am honored to associate with you.
