Sherry- I'm eating A LOT LESS!
Breakfast-rasin bran and non-fat milk
Lunch- cottage cheese and turkey sandwich
dinner- random healthy food (chicken, a lean pocket, a salad . . . whatever)
snack- a tuna sandwhich, turkey sandwich, cottage cheese, yogurt . . whatever is little and good for me)

For exercise- well . . . my fitness club member expired so I've been doing what I can. I go mall walking with my baby, run up and down my stairs, do crunchies, and various other things.

I did get a 6 week membership to the gym for Christmas, so I'm, starting tomorrow. That should really help me reach my next goal. I'm hoping somebody will get me another 6 week gym membership for my birthday which is in January. I know it's kinda expensive, but I'm hoping b/c it doesn't fit into our fixed budget right now!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY SHERRY!

Hope you have a fabulous day!

Love, CJ

Ok, I'm not getting to the gym tonight! Allen got his shots today and he's too cranky to drop off in the childcare room while I workout. They'd just bring him right back out again!
I got my period and I want chocolate so bad! I asked my husband to bring home some m&m's after work. It's ok once in a while, I guess!

I thought I would pop in and take this moment to wish everyone a very Happy New Year since I may not be able to tomorrow - our son and DIL will be in tomorrow and we will be at friends house for New Years! Just staying in having dinner with family and friends. By the way, I am about to start a new challenge thread so please everyone come join in ... It will be called THIN WANNABEES "NEW YEAR 2006" MINI CHALLENGE ... hope you will all join me there!

Love, CJ

ok, I did pretty good over the holiday, I thought I gained 2 pounds, but when I got back on track a couple days ago, I got my water intake back up and realized I was just retaining water. (THANK GOD) I ate like a piggy...for 3 days.

I hope everyone had a great Christmas.

Hello Everyone

I would like very much to join your group. My name is Debbie {Sherry's friend}. She has already told me so much about this group, I feel like I know some of you. I have posted on another forum in the past. I am looking forward to posting with you where the main goal is weightloss and support for each other. I have also posted my mini challenge.

Happy New Year to all my new friends.

Deb

Hello All

I'm here CJ!! Just trying to get my house back together. I go back to work Wednesday.I have missed you girl!!!!!

I weighed this morning and I've gained all my weight loss back.

Today my starting weight is 202! I will get this weight off!!! I'll do low-carb again because I know it works for me.

I won't be able to start today because I'm on clear liquids all day & taking Fleets liquid laxative & Dulcolax for my colonscopy in the a.m. A good time to start back on track huh??????

I'll post more again later after I finish the house.

Sharon....Where are you???!!!!! I sent you an email hon!!!

Allensmom23 · 01-02-2006, 06:03 PM

Yay! I got to the gym yesterday, finally, and it was wonderful! I had so much energy afterwards! I'm hoping to get there tonight too, but Mark went to work at 4am, and he's napping. Hopefully he'll wake up soon so I can go.
I got one of those big workout balls, my mom showed me a bunch of great stuff to do with them that really work your abs. That's my trouble area after having Allen.
