Thanks Mindy. Well, I guess DH and the kiddos are taking me out for dinner. So I still have to go out. So I fixed myself up I will pull my whimpering body out the door. I will probably need that extra workout by the end of the night. I don't know where they are taking me.
Well, I done pretty good today, except for I only drank 2 bottles of water, I think.
I did weights today and there were two real lookers which made the whole experience all the sweeter! I can look, can't I?!
I stepped on the scale at the last minute and I am 159.5!!!! I don't officially WI until Monday, so I will wait until then to make it official, but it sure felt good!
Grazer I'm glad the kick in the butt helped.
Mindy Right on!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This bunny needs to get represented more often. He's cute!!
thinpossible I feel your pain, literally. I have had a bum shoulder for sooooooooo long now. I can only sleep on one side at night. I keep hoping it will go away, but I might have to get a massage or two cause it is not letting up! Oh, I know what I want to do! My GF swears by Dr. Ho's massager unit. I have been considering buying it, and as a reward for getting to the 150's I am going to buy it tomorrow.
Happy Birthday Dear Jeni!!
Hope it was a good one.
HT, I am with ya, hate to shop for clothes. I did just clean out my closet and threw out all of the jeans and such I had been holding on to until they fit again. Some of them even did when I tried them, but we are talking these things were 20 years old, they were dry rotted for goodness sake. Then I threw out everything that needed hemming, new buttons etc and things I never wear because of whatever reason. My closet looks great, but I also only have about 3 pairs of slacks and a handful of shirts that I ever wear to work, so there was no reason to have all the rest. If it bothers you, buy a couple of new shirts that you love and by the time they are worn out, you'll need smaller ones anyway!
Clykk, Congratulations on getting to the 150's, new decades are so exciting!!
Grazer, glad you are feeling back on track.
Mindy, great job, everything moving in the right direction!!
OK, got to go get ready for work.
W 100, doing ok with this
E Crunches, walking
E OP
D Every day is a new beginning.
Ahhh! I fell off the wagon yesterday! No exercise and we ate out with family. I was gone from the house allllllll day with both kids though, very out of the norm for us. Hope I can recover from beer and BBQ quickly!
W 64oz+
E At LEAST 20min, hopefully 30+.
E No snacking!
D Pick yourself back up, it's just one bump.
Morning ladies....Hope everyone is well on this lovely Thursday morning.
Ht- I used to hate trying on clothes. I wished i could just buy clothes straight off the rack and they would just fit me just right. But once i did find a new outfit or two, i always felt soooo much better. Girl...you just gotta bite the bullet and go pick out a couple of nice tops and new pants. You will at least feel better having some new clothes to wear. And I hope your exams go great!!! I know you will do awesome on them!!
Jeni...Congrats on trying the new class. It sounds like it was quiet the workout!!! And Happy Late Birthday!!!! I hope you enjoyed your dinner out!!
Thin...I agree that .5 pounds is better than no pounds down. I am tracking every single .2 i lose. Otherwise, i may start feeling depressed. So...Congrats on the half pound lose!!!!
Mmavis...i did the same thing recently. I had thrown out everything that i didn't wear, couldn't wear (too big) or was too out of date...and now, there is hardly anything left in my closet. And now my 4's are tighter than i'd like them to be and hate wearing them. But yet, i am not going out to buy a bunch of clothes that i am getting out of in the next 4 months. I did splurge and buy a new blouse the other weekend that was on clearance...but that's it.
So...yesterday was my first wednesday off and i did GREAT!!! I stayed on plan sooo good. I ate exactly what i would have if i was at work...except for the mcdonalds ice cream cone. But i thought it was only 100 calories but this one website where i get nutritional values says 150 cal. Still not bad. I definately did not go over 1200 calories. Actually i only got about 1100. But my fats were more than i'd like them to have been. And i drank ALL my water too. So, it was a good day.
WEED:
W- 64 ounces
E- 1200 calories
E- not sure
D- Did it once, did it twice, let's do it a third time!!!
The dinner out went good. I just got a w fried chicken salad and gave all the chicken to Tommy. Makenna ate most of my ranch dresisng (which was on the side). I did have a couple of drinks but otherwise I did okay. Time to get ready for the gym!!!!
Ouch. Ouch. Ouch. I have a, what would you call it, a rub burn? I was running and I must've had my jacket zipped too high and it rubbed. I felt it at about 38 minutes into my run but I didn't want to stop until I hit 40.
Tommy did NOT want to go to busy town today, but I made him a deal and he went and had fun. So since it was my last day to work out until Tuesday I ran for 40 minutes then cooled down for 5. Logged in 3.5 miles I really had to find the motivation today. I wanted to do another class this morning called "build and burn", but I overslept. So I promised myself at least 20 minutes running. I hit that 20min and I though what the heck do 2 miles (I was just over 1.5) Then I ended up at 3.25 at 40 minutes then I started to cool down. It was a nice run
W 80 oz
E 45 minutes cardio done Ab Lounge later
E 1400 cals
D Follow my eating plan.
Wow!!! 40 minutes of running!! That's awesome!! You go girl. Isn't it just a wonderful feeling when you don't want to go excersize and then you do and you put in even more time??
It is nice. My biggest problem is I am getting bored with running, but I don't feel like its a real workout if I dont spend some time running. I loved the class I took and I did work up a nice sweat, but even though it was an hour long I left feeling like I needed something more. I guess I should be glad I felt that way.
Well someone at my house just made frozen Digiorno pizzas for dinner. I was about to have a second peice when I looked at the box. One slice is 360 calories. Stopped at one slice. I'll have a snack later.
My scale has been inching down everyday. Sticking to 1400 calories, working our, getting some water. Can't blow it now. Today was 197.2. I really want 196 something tomorrow.
Jeni- Mix it up a bit. It will feel good.
Lumi- I have a bit of ice cream several nights a week. Light ice cream or Breyers has some yummy bars- 150 calories.
Clykk- The 150's. Yeah!!!
MM- Good job getting back with it. Now stick to it.
The dinner out went good. I just got a w fried chicken salad and gave all the chicken to Tommy. Makenna ate most of my ranch dresisng (which was on the side). I did have a couple of drinks but otherwise I did okay. Time to get ready for the gym!!!!
Ill post more later.
Glad you had a good birthday!

That is AWESOME! Keep it up!
I'm doing pretty well. OP, and exercising. Still not drinking as much water as I need though. Got the 30 day shred in the mail today, so I'm sure that's going to be a butt-kicker.
Tomorrow:
W 64 oz
E 30DS, walking at least 30 min.
E no bites, licks or tastes
D Commitment is key.
I got the massager. It is great! I am going to like using it on my knee, shoulder and lower back. No miraculous healing with one stint, but it's like any massage...things start to loosen up over time.
I fell into a pothole this afternoon and I'm still stuck. Fear is rearing its ugly head which brings me to a grinding halt work-wise. With the sense of not being able to move on anything work-wise I get frustrated with myself and try kicking myself in the arse, but to no avail. Then I feel bad for being so hard on myself. Then I eat to comfort myself. So, in the last 12 hours I have had lots of crackers, 1 s'more granola bar, 1 reg. Oreo McFlurry, 2 Pillsbury croissants, 2 pigs in a blanket and I am currently eating tortilla chips. I hope I stop soon!
Jen!!
