This thread was started before the dawn of time by Amazons who needed to compare their stats with other Amazons. Over time it grew into a community of incredible women who try to keep their spirits in the clouds and their feet on the ground, moving toward health. Most of us start at 5'7 and go up from there, from young singles to wise and lively elders of the tribe. We welcome newcomers who are willing to be kind and share a bit of their lives.

I'm here! I'm here! I feel as if I'm running in tight circles this week, making myself dizzy and just now realizing it's Wednesday and I haven't posted. Frieda, I was a 4-dotter last week but with a big gain -- I am not going to dwell, just tell. My body is up to no good right now. Andrea, thanks for keeping us going and honest. I think we are all stretched. Shari, good for you, getting your tracker warmed up and ready for spring.
I have been tracking, even going back to days I was super busy and trying to recall everything. Dang, time is slipping away and I've got to run. Good thoughts to all! Special hugs to Frieda as you play the waiting game.

Good morning T! Hope we see more CATs here today. It's amazing how quickly the days can go by - I need to check in here first thing or it doesn't seem to happen.
I managed to get rid of that nasty headache yesterday with a nap that lasted a good part of the afternoon. Good thing I got sleep then, I was restless most of the night...I think a front is coming in because my joints ache and that kept me from getting comfortable. Of course, having the dogs hog space on the bed doesn't help either! (Yes, we are those kind of crazy dog people who let their dogs on the bed at night!)
Shari, I agree with you...Frieda is my inspiration as well! I am hopeful for seeing a lower number at my weigh-in later today...
Martha, I'm not drooling after reading about your stir fry dinner. I need to make something like that one of these days now that I'm not completely wiped out every night after work.
Okay, better get some batches posted and dive into whatever other mess is waiting for me today. Happy Wednesday to all!!

Good Morning, Friends! Andrea - I agree on getting here first thing - hence my presence today. I need to go back and catch up on CAT-doings. I've week 1 under my belt. Let's call this place Cereal City much unlike Mrs.Kate's Horse Town. My commutes smell of whatever the plants are cooking that day. MMM, coco puffs!
I reported to Frieda I was only a 2-dotter with a small decline. Last night I went to OTF #2. I have T/TH booked for the rest of April with a Sunday class in there in a few weeks. My goal is to get to 3x a week in May and then 4x a week in June. I believe dress shopping this weekend will be a HUGE motivator.
I need to get moving and want to check back in on the last week of my absence. Have a great one long and leans.

Hi, my CaT Friends. I'm typing over the true feline in my lap, old Elvy. He is a frail boy. In my lap any chance he gets.
Dryer is running. At its completion, I'm off to the last run of lessons before VACA. Double Hooray! Just WeWa tomorrow, two mtgs.
T, good to see you spring into action here today. Everyone is missed when not here, but the usual starter cats are so noticed when absent. Andrea, nap is excellent headache treatment. Glad it didn't drag you way under. I love that the dogs are bed-worthy! Mick has his own in our room. He can be with us a while but he usually gets too warm. Colleen, love your planned-out plan for workouts at OTF. We'll have access to a fitness ctr at new place. Will I use it? Wouldn't that be great if I would. Nothing to stop me but myself.
Got a cut and color today; gray was coming in like a steam train. WTH. Feeling so ready for holiday, break, vacation, downtime, southern time, younameit. Time to get a move on. Tracked for today. Anyone else?

I'm glad y'all find me an inspiration! I am struggling a bit this week, but think I have FINALLY gotten back on track. I will recap the Blue Dots Results week #1 Frieda-6 Linda-5 Sam-5 T-4 Shari-4 (plus a loss of 3) Susan-2(plus a loss of 4.4) Andrea-2 Martha-1
I'll save my pep talk for later in the week. You all know what to do!! I'm weighing myself on Friday since I'll be out of town Sat.
Oh, T. You were never far from my thoughts. Hmmm, tonight is Monday night I know T has WW, I wonder how she did...Where is T? I'll have to text her. Then watching Midwife, I imagine T to be like Sister Ursula if she were a nun, Today is Wednesday, I MUST text T and see if everything is ok. I didn't get around to checking in with you, but you have been in my thoughts.
Much is going on in my world. The JA continues to be a JA. We were invited via email to a school luncheon next week and he responded to the girl that He cannot come since I put a restraining order on him and he isn't supposed to be within 500 ft of the school. I'd have liked it to say the truth, as in what really happened. Anyhow, there will be some action soon on other issues. I wish I could elaborate. I am out of time. See you tomorrow.

Survived my first quiz with an 84. Have to get at least an 80 on them. I tracked yesterday and stayed within points. I'll make sure today has been tracked before dinner. Dinner is going to be working on emptying refrig freezer of leftovers. At least it will be portion controlled. The stir fry was 2 bags of frozen stir fry vegetables. Soy sauce, garlic & 5 spice powder. Mixed in rice noodles. Just about cleaned it up. May put in freezer to have next week. Don't want a chance of the sodium to affect weigh in. Walked to library after school. Items were ready for pickup. Ummmm, school just started and homework is piling up. Felt it would be best to cancel. I'll admit I kept the movie (Jesse Stone). Frieda - Sorry for the drama from JA. Sending hugs and good thoughts to all.
