Morning friends I'm at 224 (down 1.8) and just 1 pound to go to get to -50 lbs. I'm gonna see it on my scale tomorrow even if I have to lay in bed until noon without food or water! lol
Aimee I'm sorry about your friend. It's hard to feel so helpless when someone you care about needs you. I agree with Diana, just being there to hear her out will mean the world.
Ona -- Good job on the .2 in the face of Thanksgiving & leftovers!
Kristi -- Congrats on your .2! Did you get some good deals for all your hard work? I did all my shopping online
About TOM I think I must be peri-menopausal...I felt like TOM was coming last week, it's due today, but hasn't showed up. I used to be very regular, but for the last year or so I'm somewhere between a 22 and a 31 day cycle. Keeps me on my toes, but pretty annoying too!
Sorry, didn't subtract correctly ..the scale said 227.2 this morning(i know i got that part right ) and yesterday it said, 228.0 so I'm down .8 instead of
.2
go get it Angie!! great job on the 1.8 it's nice to know someone else thinks like me.I stay in bed and go as early as possible hoping for another oz thank you,even though i was wrong ..i appreciate your support
You're on your way Starbrite,1.1..fantastic work!!
So after TOM popped in to say hey, I am back down to 239.4 which I'm happy about!!!!! And I still heave 3 more days until the end of November, so that may result in another pound...which would put me at 6 lbs. for November...the most I have lost in a month so far!
I was up this morning 0.8 to 197.8, going in the opposite direction the past couple days. But last night was my own fault, my mom made pizza.. I have a weakness for pizza, and especially my mom's pizza even though she makes dough from scratch and makes me my own really tiny sized and thin so I'm not eating too much doughy stuff. Oh well.
Back on track today. Started my colon cleanse, have had well portioned meals, ran to the gym to squeeze in a quick workout before they closed. I've been studying since hubby left for work so I've totally lost track of time today. But I came back, had my protein shake and a salad and I'm revved. He doesn't get home for another 4 hours so I can really get quite a bit more studying done. I have 3 classes left for this semester but the exam is around the corner. Going to work full time and taking a class while making sure hubs and I are fed and living in a sanitary conditions is hard work But oh so very satisfying.
Down 0.4 come on winter onederland ! I know 7.5lbs is a big ask in three and a half weeks, but I am soooooo determined. Hope to have a good start to December, because the beginning of November was a washout
In November.........
I Have hardly slept
Have had horrid stressy work time
Have had horrid stressy time with over stressed teenagers !
Have felt a distance between me and DH (not sure how to tackle that?)
Had so much pain from my back (recurring problem)
BUT...........
I made it to the 2 -ohs !!
I got into a size 12 dress (satin, no stretch or give)
Have been described as "skinny"
Have made the realisation that I will do this.
Hoping for a positive and less stressful December.
Thanks chickies, you are such a source of inspiration and joy for me
Down .8 - dare I say that I survived Thanksgiving relatively unscathed? I'm so excited! I hope I can make it back to the gym today - I haven't been since Wednesday because of family being in town and I'm twitching to get back into my workout routine!
Down.4 to 226.8.. so excited!!! can almost jog all the way round the track without stopping I'm working on it and in another day or too I'll be there. can't believe I'm jogging
Ona - seeing bones you haven't seen for years sounds pretty exciting - it's like rediscovering something! Enjoy it! Great job with your jogging! That's a great accomplishment!
Angie - fabulous loss! I am trying to be there as much as I can for her, I know that her and her husband made a lot of friends together, so she wasn't feeling like she had anyone to talk to.
eclipse - that is a pretty great whoosh! Congrats on the 170's!!
Kukkie - I don't know how you do all of that and still stay sane! The bf and I can barely balance work, family and still find time to see each other! How's the cleanse going?
starbrite - Sounds like November was a tough one, but you are still going, so if December is less stressful I'm sure you'll blow that goal out of the water!
Diana - TTOM IS playing some games with you! But at least it's a good game - ie downwards movement
I didn't sleep very much last night, so we'll see what the scale says today!! I am relieved that I have tomorrow off, maybe I can get a good nights sleep.
Yippee! Yesterday really did me some good. Down 2.6 to 195.2 - whooooshhhhhh! Let's not jinx it now though. My muscles are all really sore from my insane squeezed in workout in which I did supersets just to minimize my rest time so I could get it all done before the gym closed. I don't think I'll be lifting weights today, but I'll think I'll go get in some of the dreaded cardio. Must remember to charge my iPod.
Aimee - sometimes, I'm not really sure how it all happens either. Usually it's really good time management, you should see my planner, everything gets scheduled. The cleanse is going okay I suppose, no major movements yet but it can take a couple of days. The tea, which is the third part of the daily routine really got me to sleep better than I have in weeks, which was really nice. And hubby actually left me to sleep while he got in his workout, made lunch for work and had breakfast and he had coffee waiting for me when I woke up. Heaven!
I have to share some news as well: Hubby and I touched on the subject of getting our own house within the next year. He can be indecisive, so this may change of course, but he's really been dead-set against leaving his parents high and dry (I totally don't see it that way and can't wait to get away from the in-laws). Up until now, his version of the timeline has always been 2-3 years when we've got a major downpayment available to put down on a house. And then last night he confesses that he's been thinking about it a lot lately, and can't live with his parents for too much longer because he's sick and tired of answering to them (me inside secretly screaming yes! because I've always seen that they still treat him like a child not a 30 year man even though he pays all of their bloody bills). Anyway, I'm excited but at the same time not wanting to get my hopes up.
I'm at 224 (down 1.8) and just 1 pound to go to get to -50 lbs. I'm gonna see it on my scale tomorrow even if I have to lay in bed until noon without food or water! lol
