30-Somethings - 30 Something Chat Sat/Sun Feb 2/3

GOOD MORNING ALL!!

Went to bed at 9pm last night, so I was up at 6:15 this AM...I try to sleep a little later on the weekends, butmy body is so used to 5 am, it's hard.

Anyway...

Did a few things yesterday, nothing exciting...today I have laundry (didn't get it done yesterday) a few errands, and then gonna have a couple kids over for the kiddos to play this afternoon. Tomorrow we're headed to our friends' house for the Superbowl. Gotta make my buffalo dip & a giant cookie...think we're rooting for the Giants, which is against me nature (I'm an Eagles fan), but it's house rules, and my friend hates the PATS...so I'll decorate the cookie accordingly.

So, does anyone have anything good planned for this weekend?? I'm looking forward to not having much to do :)

Alright, time for coffee...hope everyone has a super day!

P

Mornin'!

GO BIG BLUE!!!! :cheer: That's about all I'll be doing tomorrow! :lol:

I'll try and catch up at some point. Have a great day all!

Good morning!

Hi Lauren & Pam!

Had a good day yesterday - had good news at the dr. from my second mammos and everything is fine. DS and I then went to see some friends and he had a good time - and I had some conversation with someone my age!

Today I am going to lunch with a friend I have had since second grade. She is coming to see our new house first, I need to get going soon to clean and workout, shower, etc.

Have great Saturday everyone!

work, work and more work...lol. Yep that's right..i work today and tomorrow. Tonight DH and i are going out to get a pint of beer but that's it. Nothing exciting (: don't we just live the life LMAO

today i'm going to a new clinic i havn't worked at before. Its near downtown Atlanta. I don't think its crazy busy...but we'll see.

alright all...hope you are doing well.

congrats on the good news dawn (we were posting at the same time)

Dawn...wonderful news!! Hope you have lots of fun today!!

GG...going out for beer is a huge treat for us,,,doesn't happen often. Enjoy, and don't work too hard!!

Lauren.. Go Eli *she says without much enthusiasm* Well, I guess he IS more likable than Tom Brady...don't worry, tomorrow, I'll have a few beers and I'll be cheering like an idiot for them!!

Okay, I hate the Pats, so go Giants.

I have to work today too (don't feel bad GG). Was reading a good book last night and before I knew it I was done and it was 2am. :yikes: I am sooo not in a good mood today. Those customers better be nice to me. :lol:

well I need to go and get a hearty breakfast, I don't have lunch until 1pm.

Lisa

Congrats Dawn on your good news!

Nothing planned today except the dreaded grocery shopping. ugh. The day before the SuperBowl is probably not the best day to hit the grocery store, but it must be done, because I was too lazy yesterday to do it. First though is day 2 of Slim in 6, then shower and breakfast, then the grocery store. Tonight I will probably do another workout due to boredom. My hubby is working nights this week and after my dd goes to bed I usually get bored and want to eat, so I exercise instead.

Have a great day everyone! :)

Good Morning!! Congrats Dawn!!


I am excited. Today I am meeting some girlfriends for lunch and then we are going to see 27 Dresses. I hope the movie is good. Other than that not much is planned. I need to clean the guniea pig cage and get the cat food.

Have a great day!!!

Jasmine

P.S. I don't even know if I will watch the Super Bowl. It doesn't hold much interest for me this year.

Good morning all!

Morning All,
Sounds like everyone has a low key weekend planned. Don't have anything special planned for the weekend. Waiting on the kids to come over from their mom's. I have some paperwork to work on for school, so I hope that I can get some of it done this weekend. Other than that, I don't have any major plans.
Pam doesn't it figure when you can sleep in on a weekend, than you get up early. Hope you have a nice afternoon with the kiddos at your house.
Dawn that is great news about your dr.'s appointment. Enjoy your lunch with your friend today!
Hi Lauren, hope you have a nice relaxing weekend!
GG, don't work too hard this weekend. Enjoy your pint with your dh this evening.
Lisa so what good book did you read last night? Hope the customers are not too rough on you today!
Jasmine, enjoy your lunch with your girlfriends and seeing the moive. A couple girls from work want to see it and we just have to find the time that is suitable and works for everyone.
Heather glad you are getting your workouts in. I know what you mean about being bored in the evenings when dh isn't home. That is usually when my dh goes out to see his friends and I stay home after being gone all day long. Sounds like you have a great plan for not eating in the evenings. Enjoy the grocery store today!
Hi to everyone else. Hope you are all having a great start to your weekend!
Take care,
Kerry

good morning all hope everyone has a great weekend!!!!

not much going on around here we are starting to shovel out from all the snow but thats about it. we got 9 fun inches of snow!!! ok really not so much fun at all.
other then that i am a bit confused by my scale today!!! on the 31 i weight 178.5 now it says 171.5 i would really love too think this too be true but i just don't think so. i weigh myself in the same spot every morning. now i know it can go up and down and really should only do it one time a week but 7 lb up and down that seems crazy??? well guess time will tell.....

take care
adah

Happy Saturday!! Just got back from my WI and I'm down another 1.2lbs. WOOHOO!!

Congrats Dawn on your news! Hopefully I will get the same good news soon.

Lisa and GG - Don't work too hard!

Jasmine - Have fun! I heard the movie is great.

Heather - I have to get groceries too and I am dreading it!

Hope you all have a GREAT day!

Lauren ~ put in 21 miles this week. I'll catch up with everyone later ~ Joan

Adah...well, if you haven't physically moved your scale or adjusted it or think the batteries are going, then it might be correct!! do you feel like you've lsot a good amount? Then maybe you did! Good fo ryou!!

Joan,, I see 21 miles...must be loving the bike!! Good for you!

Lauren, I'm a big fat 0 for this week, but I did 8 or 9 last week (can't rmemeber) I'm back on it on monday, though!!

Joan, nice job. Seems you really like the bike, good for you girl.

Dawn, congrats on the clean bill of health.

Lauren, you can put me down for 3 miles. Been a bad week.

Hello to everyone! Hope you all have a wonderful weekend.

I'm thinking I will have another "solo" day. I'm thinking of going to Trader Joes. I've wanted to scope the place out for a while. It's almost an hour away so it will be a trip.

Talk later!
Alicia

Hi guys!

Am back from lunch with my friend the 'boys" of my house are sleeping, so thought I would check in . i was a pretty good girl at lunch - we went to Panera. I had their black bean soup and a 1/2 turkey sandwich. My friend I sat there and talked for 2 hours - we haven't seen each other since October due to schedules.

Alicia - how was your road trip to Trader Joe's? Did you have any good finds?
CR - congratulations on the weight loss!
Miller - sorry about the snow. I guess it missed me this time - just a dusting here.
Kerry - hope that you get your paperwork done soon so that you can do something fun.
Lauren - I am at 18 miles for the week. How is your Saturday?
Jasmine - how was the movie?
Hi Joan, Lisa, Fudegy, GG and Heather!

Hope that everyone has a good Superbowl Sunday...I am off to get groceries for that and run errands.

Holli, you must be wearing off on me! down 2 pounds!
Boo-ya!
Happy rest of the weekend every one!

Dawn, that's my fav meal from Panera. I would like to make the Beans at home. TJ's was too crowded. Prob went on a bad day: SAT and 1st of month.

Danger and all of those w/ loses congrats and keep it up.

Joan, I got melatonin for DS, I forgot what you said you gave your ds. They only had 500mg. This seems like too much????

Okay, I have to show you guys a pic of my new little niece, her name is Olivia.

Have a great weekend all!

hey all...work today wasn't ok..except when i first got there. There was a receptionist from anther banfield...and no one had a code to enter me into the computer...couldn't do work until that was done. Couldn't find paper...things were very confusing at first. But it got worked out. The place is a new facility and is actually very nice. it was a steady day...but not insane. I got a lunch break. In fact, i was good at lunch. I was tempted by all the cool new resturants new the place...but decided to be good since i knew we were going for beer. So i ate my lunch that i brought. I was able to stay op...even with one beer tonight. Went to a local joint tonight for a pint. We joined their "beer club" that give you things for so many beers you drink. Its gonna take us a while if we drink a beer a week LOL. But they have hundred of beers available...so its nice to try different stuff.

joan - good job on the biking

danger - congrats on the wt loss.

to all else...hey ya...
night to all

Alicia, how sweet.

I will have to get the name of the book later, as it is down stairs and I am going to bed after I get off the computer.

Lauren, I am at 0 as well.

We were swamped today, plus I put out 2 rolling racks of clothes and changed the sales prices for tomorrow (cause we have a new sale).

Okay thats all I have for now.
Lisa

Hi, Ladies. I am new. I live in MN with my DH, my daughter Emma (born 12/5/07) and our 2 Yorkies.

Dawn - Wonderful news!

Tanner'sMom - How was the movie? I want to see it.

DeltaDawn - My dh works at Panera. I love their food. You make better choices than me though! lol


It is nice to 'meet' all of you. I hope to get to know you better.

I went grocery shopping today. It was BUSY! But it was nice to get out of the house. I had an unplanned c-section on 12/5, so most of my time has been spent at home since then. I am returning to work on Wednesday, so I figured I better get some food in the house. We have been eating out alot since dd was born. Or dh has brought home Panera sandwiches from work. Now that there is food in the house, hopefully we will start eating better!

I was diagnosed a few weeks ago with Post Partum depression... Yuck! Which I think has affected my eating. Mostly I did not eat or sleep much for 3-4 weeks. I went from weighing 279 while pregnant to being 237. Now that I am starting to feel better I am getting my appetite back... which may not be such a great thing. :dizzy: I need to keep off the weight I have already lost and lose alot more!!!

Well... lost of info about me. That is enough for now... Emma is crying, gotta run. :val1:

Evenin' all. Just a quick post today. We went skiing today and did it as a day trip (2 1/2 hours one way). I'm exhausted! I did pretty well skiing today, no calf cramps so my right foot decided it should keep up the tradition and it kept cramping on me. YAWN.

MargaritaChic: Welcome!! And congrats on your baby girl!!

OK, I'm off to bed!! Have a great weekend!

Good morning again!

OK - so I thought I did well for lunch yesterday and then ended up at Subway for dinner as we needed to run errands. I did better than normally would have, but had chips when we got home from the store...yikes.

Welcome Margaritachic - I also live in MN! I know about the unplanned c-section thing...happened to me 2 years ago.

Alicia - I normally would have been worse at Panera, but read the menu before I left...I still had the Chipotle mayo on the sandwich, though. Sorry that your trip was hectic.

Congrats Dangergirl on the weightloss!!

Glad to hear you had a more sane day GG...

Lisa - enjoy your day off...are watching the big game?

Karen - hope that your foot feel better today.

morning all. Another day another $ lol. Was going to get up and go to the gym before work...but i was too tired. Needed too sleep more. So now i have a little extra time to kill. I'm worn out. Working 6 days this week has definately killed me. I also have been working out hard at the gym this week. So i think its a combo of things. I don't have a day of until Wed....and i can't wait. Today is a short day...so that's good. I plan to come home after work. take the dog for a walk with DH and then go to the gym to do upper body. I took yesterday off from working out...so i need to go tonight. Trying to follow the schedule my personal trainer gave me.

Welcome margaritachic- like your name..margaritas are a downfall of mine LOL. My hubby makes killer Margaritas

karen - skiing sounds like fun. Hope your foot feels better

hope you all have a great day...i'll check back later (:

Mornin' All! :coffee:

PLEASE POST YOUR MILES SOON, IF YOU HAVEN'T ALREADY!! :D (Kerry, Trish, Jasmine! And anyone else that would like to participate that hasn't yet!)

I will probably be scarse, but I'll try to get on later this AM to post the miles. (It's a pain to update in, paste it in Paint, then Photobucket, so I'll wait til I have everyone's totals)

Gotta run right now, I have a house guest...

Alicia ~ the 500 mcg bottle is the one. mcg stands for "micro" gram so your DS is really taking 5 mgs. We were confused at the beginning too since I thought that I was giving hi 500 mgs! Let me know who it works for Spencer. Works like a charm for Liam.

Just dropping in.... busy weekend on this end. I'll catch up with everyone come Monday. Hugs ~ Joan

It's a big fat 0 on miles for me.

27 Dresses was really good. I love romances.

I have been fighting a cold and today it has hit full force. YUCK!!!! My parents are going to come and pick DS up and take him to church. DH is working so I will be home alone for a few hours to rest.

Have a great day!

Jasmine

Morning everyone! Not a lot of time to post this AM, there's literally a mountain of laundry waiting on me and we are having company later. DH is going out of town this week for work so I have to make sure he has enough undies! LOL!

Dawn: Thanks!! The foot felt great just as soon as I took the ski boots off! :rofl: The boot fitter said that I have to ski them 3 or 4 times before I go back to have them refit. I've skied them 3 times so I'm going to give it one more outing.

GG: Sounds like you need some rest! Yikes, working 7 days a week is hard. I hope you get a day off soon.

Lauren: Enjoy your houseguest!

Jasmine: I hope you get a good rest and are feeling better soon.

OK, off to climb laundry mountain!!

Morning Everyone,
Lauren before I forget, I had 16.75 miles for the week. Enjoy your houseguest!
Dawn I am sure that you didn't do too much damage eating some chips last night. Glad that you were able to get out of the house and enjoy some adult converation yesterday!
Lisa hope you enjoy your day off today! Sounds like you were very busy yesterday at work!
Karen hope that your foot feels better today! Enjoy your mountain of laundry. I have to do some myself!
Welcome Maragritachic! Sounds like you have your hands full with a newborn! You will love the new friendship you will make here. Hope you have a nice Sunday!
GG sounds like you needed your sleep! Hope work isn't too busy for you today. Enjoy your workout this evening at the gym. I think I might take my sdd to the lake and take a walk. It is suppose to be sunny and in the 50's today.
Hi to everyone else! Must go and take a shower now. I went to bed last night with my lower back hurting me and think if I stand in the shower and let the warm water run over it I will feel better.
Have a great day! I will check back in later.
Take care,
Kerry

Just popping in! Heading to my dad's birthday party at Applebee's. Thank goodness they have a WW menu and of course I will have no cake! =0)

Catch y'all later and have a good day!

Hey all...
went to church, then grocery store...just baked a giant cookie that I am decorating with the NY giants logo...then off to a party at 5pm. Also bringing my buffalo dip. Needless to say, the day will be shot, but it
s okay, the Superbowl is like a holiday in our house. Too bad our team isn't in it!

Hope everyone has a wonderful night.

Oh, and Welcome, Margarita!!!

Pam

Hi!

Lauren, I only got in 7 miles this week:mad: Hopefully this week will be better but at the rate I'm going right now its not looking too good.

Alicia, BEAUTIFUL baby!!!!

Hi All,
Hope you are all having a great afternoon. I just got back from going for a walk at the lake with my sdd. At first it was slow going with my back pain, but I made it through the whole walk. Well I guess dinner is done now. DH made a roast with the carrots and potatoes. So I have to go and help fix plates for everyone. Chat with you all later.
Have a great evening!
Take care,
Kerry

Go Patriots!!!! I Know Im A Little Late...its Almost Half Time

Ok...so Im The Only One It Seems Rooting For Them...i Really Dont Care Too Much About The Two Teams That Are In The Superbowl...however, I Think It Would Be Cool For The Patriots To Have The "perfect" Season..i Mean Really How Often Does It Happen That One Team Losses No Regular Season Games, No Playoff Games And Wins The Superbowl..thats Once In A Lifetime...

Ok..so The Reason I Came On...i Had To Change My Ticker...im So Excited...i Lost 2 More Pounds...im Getting Closer To My Goal!...

Have A Great Rest Of Your Evening!

Yeah Christina! :)

I want the Giants to win just because the Pats have been such aholes about it! :lol:

evening all. work was busy but not insane. Came home , walked the dog with DH before it started to rain. Went to the gym and did upper body. Then had leftover turkey chili. Now i'm being good. DH wanted apple pie (i swear he's going to turn into an apple pie), so we went to publix and he got one...and instead of having some pie, i opted for the skinny cow low fat ice cream cookie. Okay so it isn't pie...but still its desert and healthier. I'm proud of my self..its definately hard to say no to pie (:

kkerry - becareful with the back..go see a dr/chiro/massage therapist soon. You can't let it get any worse

alright all.have a great night

Lauren, I imagine that you are still partying? I just want to say that I am glad the Giants won.

I ended up not going to church today, and slept in until 1. Then just rested all day. The biggest thing I did was watch the commercials for the Super Bowl.
