michelle--great job on the running...i should try that. when i cook fish, i just put it in foil in a glass pan with salt pepper and lemon juice. (usually for salmon). when we do albacore fillets we do salt pepper lemon and dill...hope that helps
jeni--sorry to hear of the troubles with your sister...
hi to everyone else and welcome tiana...this is a great place for support/ideas/accountability
so, my friend loaned me his laptop while he's at work (for the next few days) so i get to post after all--yay!
today i went swimming and i was dragging the whole time, but i'm glad i did it. i need to get in more water (which im doing now) and i'm about to head off to work
W-working on it
E-swimming-check!
E-no chips while watching baseball!
D-one moment at a time
Sorry I've been MIA. My body is rebelling against the hour change and schedule change. I am sonot a morning person! The new job is a mind challenge for sure. TOM finally decided to show his face (2 weeks late!) which is good and bad: good because it means I'm ok, bad because...well, it's TOM! My WI for this week is out the window for sure.
Nix- I'm struggling with the water, unless we are counting tea and coffee. I am the tea goddess!
JCat- Sounds like an intensive therapeutic program may be a good idea for your sister.
Nursie- WTG on the walk/jog!
MM- Great to see you back on the dreadmill!
Popcorn- I'm fighting the night time eating demon myself lately. Cals are a struggle for me too. Then, I get cals under control and get lazy with exercise.
Tiara- Welcome
Good day today. Ate within range and drank some liquids.
Popcorn~I hate the idea of sharing food (especially chips, pretzels, anything that people just grab out of a container.) I hate how easy it is to spread germs.
Ella~dragging or not at least you did something!
Shari~what are you doing now that your VA days are over? I cant remember.
Grazer~do you put sugar and milk in your tea/coffee? I dont count coffee, but I count Tea if there is no sugar in it.
I had a long talk with my mom about my sister and she is trying to get her into a program that her insurance will cover, the problem is there is a very long waiting list for them. She is going to take her to a psychiatrist (sp) to get her evaluated, maybe there is something else going on with her (she as a detatchment disorder and something else according to her counselor.) I feel better about it, but scared because my mom is so calm right now.
I am so sore from my workout, I think I may go and sit in the hot tub at the Y (for real this time )

I ditched bootcamp tonight (Bad me...) but did text and get a line up of what I had to do. Finished cardio, and weights. Still have abs to do. Broke a good sweat.
I dont get to sit here and do personals because I have business paperwork to do. We have 2 employees now... at least our business is blessing people outside our home. But its a lot of work.
So Grazie - I am sucking wind on the water today. Having my 1st diet coke in days (the 3rd one since I started camp) but still need a good 30oz of water... and I think tea counts (san sugar!)
Of to get to it. to you all new and returning. Stay strong girls!
thanks for the welcome wishes..
today i weighed in at 251.2 im goin down yea i knew i couldnt really have gained so much weight in 2 days. i want to be 234 at the end of this month.
I hate the idea of sharing food (especially chips, pretzels, anything that people just grab out of a container.) I hate how easy it is to spread germs.
Haha, me too. I have convinced them that this how the one girl got sick. So they stuck a serving spoon in there to scoop out the pretzels. Of course the same germ hands are all handling the same spoon. LOL
You guys are all inspiring me to try to stick with this. Thanks.
I like this challenge! I always fall off the bandwagon during the holidays, but I want this year to be different! Keeping up with the exercise and limiting the special treats is the hard part. But won't it be great to have a head start on those new years resolutions? Yes for 2010!
W: 8 cups a day for now, maybe more later
E: gym/running/classes 6 days a week
E: Phase 2 of SBD
D: Gonna stick with it!! I won't let the Halloween candies I ate ruin the whole season. There is weight to be lost and goals to be met!
Doing a daily report back to this thread is helping me already. A couple of times when getting ready to slack on my WEED, I think about reporting it back.
So here goes for yesterday's WEED: water intake met goal, spent a little less time exercising due to scheduling issues on Wednesdays, calories - Woo Hoo I made it in spite of temptations, daily goal - made time for that too!
Same WEED today as the rest of the week:
W - 64 ozs.
E - 1/2 hour of aerobic activity
E - 1200 -1300 calories
D - train the dog
Tonight is going to be tough to do my exercise as we have a private agility lesson right after work. By the time I get home it will be dark and cold and I will have to really push myself to do something.
Hi Amy~ I still haven't posted from my phone, it loads too slow for me.
I got in my workout. Old lady patrol was there and took up all the treadmills, so I did the elliptical, I still got in 3.6 miles. and my weights. I think this afternoon I will do a pilates video.
hi everyone...i'm not feeling it today. still dragging but i went for a long walk with the dog (in lieu of swimming). if i'm feeling better this evening i'll nordic track for a while. bonus of not feeling well is not over eating...i need to get my water in...i don't know why it's so hard but i know i feel better when i do it.
jeni-i love sitting in the hot tub to relax. i usually get in before i swim and stretch while i'm in there...once i'm done swimming i'm usually too warm to think about it i know what you mean about the gym...i hate when i'm all motivated and i get there and all the machines are full.
kris-good work doing the boot camp at home even if you didn't make it to class
welcome jess!
hi to everyone else--hope things are going well!
W-only at about 10oz so far...working for 64 so we'll see if i float away
E-for now i'm just going to focus on moving around...walk the dog, clean the house...that's better than just sitting on my you know what all day. if i feel better later i'll nordic track
E-figure out what won't give me a stomach ache...eat that.
D-i always feel better about life when my house is clean...i'm going to use my extra time to do that
Hey everyone...
