  • Personals moved over from Part 1 ...
    Diana you're spunky this morning No not like a prison sentence it sounds like a great new way of life for a great new and improved YOU You should have (I would have) waited to weigh in at your normal time. You surely wouldn't have been up 1.2 Diana I think that is what scares me the most and though I don't always give it my all I don't ever want to get up to 190-220 again. I look in the mirror and I see a better person and get excited, but when I take a picture the excitement leaves. Maybe in order for me to remain constantly focused I should print one of those photos and carry it with me in my wallet. So each time I go to pay for something I shouldn't have voila there's that not so good looking photo of me. Thanks for the reminder Thanks Diana about my Baby and that is only in a year, she's in the second grade. Oh my goodness by time she gets in the fifth grade what are we gonna do? . The good thing is she is all tom boy. I try to leave that hair down she wants it up. Oh and that style last night is ugly and embarrassing, (her words). I don't wear braids like that, I like my ponytail she's a mess. I have never heard of a potato ricer. Let me know what you think of it if you get one.

    Roxy adoption stuff is better than a workout Get those children in there. I can't wait, I am so excited for you. Can't wait until you all meet and you have your first outing, then your weekend visits, and overnight visits (that order right?) Thanks on my little tom boy Great job on 5lbs GONE for the month

    aka 12.5lbs GONE for the month, way to go sorry you aren't feeling well, I'm better today, not 100% but better, hope you feel better soon Busy lady you are, keep your chest covered and your head also with the sweating is what my Great-Grandmother use to say, don't let more cold in I am the opposite of you, I don't want to eat if I'm not feeling well, I'm just not hungry but I know if I don't eat I will have a crazy gain when I do, and that scares me. Best of luck in the Komen Walk

    Jess, my sons do push ups like it's nothing and so does my oldest daughter, but the boys have had plenty of practice during football and wrestling and my daughter does PT with the Army Recruiters so yeah, they can laugh all they want. I'm 45, they're 12, 13 and 18 ... I think I could do them then too I think We'll get there. We try with tons of effort so we get an A for that . Thanks on my munchkin you know I like that, but she is almost as tall as me thanks to my 6"6 husband, so I can't call her that .

    crainjo 15.6lbs GONE for the month, way to go

    Coondocks Let's do this and we know we can Is it the red and black machine? Let me know how you like it. I wanted one but never got it due to something my husband said. Let me know thanks. Sorry about the up, it could very well be sodium from the soup

    I am down .4 from yesterday to 175.8, But I gained 2.4lbs in the month of September oh well tomorrow is a new month.
  • I'm in I would really like to finally get out of the 190's. I have not been on plan very good the past few months. Watching the scale creep back up is enough to make me get back on the wagon. I will not change my ticker- I hope in a week or two it will be correct again Happy Autumn everyone!!!

  • Dang! It's October already?

    I am trying to WI more often. I need to see if my new regimen for insulin resistance is working, and it seems to be--yay!!!

    Had a not so good day on Wednsday... someone brought those frosted sugar cookies to celebrates some thing or another. Those are one of my weaknesses, and I had one. Was very disappointed in myself after doing so well, and paid for it with an extra 20 minutes on the bike. But that didn't make me feel better.

    I guess cheating isn't worth it if it's going to jack with my peace of mind...

    Can't wait to see how well everyone does this month!! Let's go!

  • LGW good job on the 1.4lbs GONE for the month. Don't be sad you did great and next month you will see ONEderland for sure ... we learn more with each passing day see I had already commented before you said it and again you got ONEderland in the bag for October for sure, you know what to do


    Alright Ona it's on I challenge myself to catch up with you . Good job on the .8 down this morning and the 5lbs GONE for the month I'm gonna hopefully fight a good fight in October, hoping to see day one with a loss

    Kukkie maybe you could put a small note near the coffee as a reminder Just goes to show you how busy you are Good job on the 4.6lbs GONE for the month Yay for ONEderland

    goal4agirl, Happy Autumn to you also, and Happy early 50th

    Kya glad the new regimen is working Sorry the cookie monster got you. I had a stare down with some snickerdoodles yesterday and I won. I was so proud of me I was gonna get them, I said to myself I'll just have 3 (not sure of the serving size) and then the kids can eat the rest when they come home, but then I thought those cookies don't stand a chance. I'll catch them all ... in my tummy . So I left them there, oh and I had just left Curves, so that would have been a total waste .

    MadameZ good for you on seeing 150 , wow I can't wait to see that number on my scale (daydreaming)

    I need to get off of here and get moving before I know it the kids will be coming home ...
