Sherri, That sounds amazing!! I am so glad you had a good time!! The running was a great non-scale victory!! How nice to get the praise from your DH!! He sounds like a sweetheart!! Tara 305/194/170 -111

Sherri! What a wonderful romantic hubby you have. All I got was a card and a kiss :o( I can totally relate not being able to run when I started this whole thing at 270...I just got back this evening from a 4 mile run with my mom, and just feel invigorated. Nothing hurts anymore either, before my feet and my knees would have been killing me to just walk, let alone run! Hurray for us!!! ~Debra

Oh Sherrie - how awesome!!!! I hear ya on the time alone with many kiddos. My dd and SIL came over Saturday night to babysit for us, we had an awesome time alone. We actually got to have an uninterrupted adult conversation!!!!

that is to funny , but i know exactly what ya mean . isnt it nice for a change .. I was so relaxed over weekend just knowing my day wasnt planned by noone but me ...
