bbg200~ Roast sounds amazing!
katybelle~ That's great that you've developed a love for running! I was a dancer for years when I was younger, but my legs won't take the beating anymore, I really do miss it though! Krizstyling~ Yum, the pepperoni pizza is super tasty! misstraveller~ Congrats on your upcoming engagement! southernbelle102~ Posting pics is a great idea! I'd love to put some more faces to names! The change in your face is amazing! You're beautiful! ValRock~ Walking is considered one of the best exercises, so you're doing great! oOPeanutOo~ I love making homemade pizza! I put lots of onions, peppers, sun dried tomatoes, mushrooms, and plum tomatoes on mine with minced garlic and fresh basil. What do you put on your pizzas? stacylambert~ I LOVE weight lifting also! Do you prefer free weights or machines? ferretgirl~ A NSV is a Non Scale Victory, something like fitting into a new pair of pants or successfully completing something you never could have at a higher weight. I love to watch inches during the challenges, because sometimes the weight doesn't come off like I would like, but the inches do. princessdi86~ Congrats! 18lbs. is AWESOME!!! I would love to see that recipe! Sunday & Monday Question~ What is one thing you see yourself wearing when you reach your goal weight? I have actually purchased a beautiful corset that I have hanging in my room. I want to wear that with a pair of fitted black pants and heels, and go out to the local bar to just make all the guys eat their hearts out... especially the ex. So I did end up getting to the Halloween dance last night and had a great time! I unfortunately was brought down at one point when I had a minor confrontation with my exes sister, but I didn't let it ruin my night. I ate really well throughout the day, so I don't feel too bad about the drinks I had. Unfortunately the restaurant was dead tonight, so the pressure is on for tomorrow night to be a good one as I really need to make some money! I have to remember to check the weather for Tuesday, as my co-worker and I are supposed to hike a new mountain! Have a great week everyone! If you haven't posted your starting weight yet, please make sure to do so! |
misstraveller – Congratulations of the impending engagement. That’s exciting!
katybelle – was there a particular style of dancing that you did for those 10 years? bbg200 – 2 pounds is awesome. I haven’t had a Sunday Roast in ages... I’m a little bit jealous KimL1214 – That’s a really cool goal outfit. Having the corset out where you can see it would give you that extra push some days. Good on you for not letting the confrontation with your exes sister spoil the evening. Question of the day... It probably sounds pretty silly but I don’t have any super sexy outfits that I’m looking forward to getting into. I just want to be able to rock the jeans & t-shirt look. I’d love to be able to roll out of bed and throw that together without having to think about it and know that I’m going to look good. I'm interested to see what everyone else's goal outfit is! |
What is one thing you see yourself wearing when you reach your goal weight?
Anything and everything from Anthropologie, Banana Republic, J Crew and Ann Taylor! :) |
southernbelle102~ I can't wait for when I can shop in more then just 2 stores for clothing!!!
oOPeanutOo~ I would love to be able to roll out of bed and know I look good without putting much effort into it! I made a signature for our challenge if anyone is interested in putting it in their signatures... http://i849.photobucket.com/albums/a...3/Phoenix2.jpg http://i849.photobucket.com/albums/a...3/Phoenix2.jpg is the image link (make sure to put [IMG] in front of it and [/IMG] at the end) I'm super tired right now and have been daydreaming all morning of how good my bed will feel when I can finally get in it tonight. Of course I have to work at the restaurant tonight as well, so I won't be home before 10. Ugh. Happy Monday everyone! Check my previous post for the question of the day! |
Peanut: Thank you *hugs*
southernbelle: I can definitely see the difference in your pics. You're doing great, just keep it up! :cheer: KimL: Glad you made it to your Halloween party and had a great time. There will always be people with their drama, but kudos to you for not letting her get to you. Updated my "about me" to an actual (somewhat) description of me and will now go update my NSV ;) Hmm... what will I wear when I get to another goal weight? I'd like to have size 9 jeans fit nicely again, so may go buy a new pair. Also like lingerie and cute little clothes (skirts/tops) that doesn't seem to look right on 'real' people, so may shop for a cute outfit. |
Thanks to all the congrats!!! I truly appreciate it :)
KimL1214: The recipe is SUPER easy! 1 pound lean ground turkey meat 1 can dark red low sodium kidney beans 1 can of diced tomatoes low sodium 1 medium onion 4 cloves of minced garlic 1-2 packets of chili seasoning, per taste 1 tsp of cumin (optional) 2 cups of water Chop onion and mince garlic. Sautee over med-high heat in large soup pan. Brown ground turkey with seasonings of choice, I usually put a dash of sea salt, garlic powder, onion powder, and red pepper flakes. When fully browned, add tomatoes with liquid, and kidney beans with liquid. Add chili seasoning and water. Bring mixture to boil, and then boil for about five minutes. Simmer on low for at least 30 minutes, longer for full flavor. Add more water and seasoning as you see fit. *Let me know how it turns out for you!!!! You can add other veggies of choice such as zucchini, and summer squash, I'm not a fan, but you may be! As for the question, I have two answers, and both are pretty generic, but I'm excited about them nonetheless! The first one is this beautiful, yet adorably simple black dress that I bought from Ann Taylor Loft that is a size 6. It will look adorable when I can wear it! The second is a super cute hot pink bikini that I saw last year from Juicy Couture that I would LOVE to have and flaunt! This will be my major reward for myself when I get to the size I want to be. |
What great questions Kim!
By far I have to agree with you! My goal outfit is to be able to rock a pair of True Religion jeans distressed, with a belt (and not have to invent holes in it to get it to fit) and a wife beater, WITHOUT my arms being flabby. I want to rock that look and be HAPPY with the way I look! |
thanks peanutt and kim :)
for the question of the day: mine has to be my gray jeans i had at my lowest weight before i put some of it back on.. also to feel good in a dress! |
Ugh, I'm still sick. The flu symptoms are thankfully all gone, but i have this nagging cough that doesn't want to go away. It happens to me every time I get sick.
KimL1214: I've always been a free weight person. And thanks for the signature! Looks great! Question of the day: I don't have anything sexy in mind, I'm more of a jeans and t-shirt person. I just want to look good wearing them. The one thing I will wear that I don't now is shorts. I hate when we go places like the zoo or hiking and even though it's 80 degrees out or more I'm still wearing long pants. It would be nice to wear shorts and not worry about them riding up or my legs chafing. I know I have a long way to go for that though. When I was 170 pounds my shorts still rode up on me. |

I think shorts is a great goal to have =) I for one cannot wait til we both get there =) |
Hey everyone! I've really been enjoying reading all the posts! It's making me more determined to make sure I come on here and check in and maybe post something daily. I've been totally militarily on plan with food but have been kind of been sloppy with exercise (I haven't done a thing since Friday!). It's not yet dire but I definitely need to check that. Thankfully, tomorrow's a gym day which should help me get back on track and I'll set myself a little challenge of 400minutes by Saturday!
Kim your questions are the best! I've been enjoying them soooo much! Todays question: I will go crazy at White House Black Market and Banana Republic. Where I regularly used to go drool at the clothes <sighs>... Oh and I'll finally wear sleeveless dresses without always wearing a cardigan to cover my arms and SBF (shoulder blade fat)... which i do even here in the bleeping tropics!!! Way to master the art of not sweating! |
Ive been absent these past couple days. Dad and Mom's birthday, plus helped my bf's mom bake a HUGE cake for her work AND getting everything all ready for my Cali trip thats happening in 3 days! >.< I pretty much maintained and posted my first weigh-in today. I did see change in my measurements, a loss of .5 in my waist bringing that down to 27inches and a small gain in my calf of .25inch (getting some muscle lol)
|
oOPeanutOo: I started dancing when I was three, and I started out doing ballet, tap, and jazz. I dropped tap after a couple of years before I quit dancing altogether, but I'd love to pick tap back up again. :)
Today's question: I see myself in clothes that look good on me. Pretty much everything. I especially want to be able to wear a two piece bathing suit and feel confident in it. I wore one this summer but I was really self conscious about it. |
My ultimate goal is to be able to fit into this hilarious half tutu- half shirt that I bought at Kmart sometime this past summer. It's actually an XL but I couldn't fit in it. I want to be able to XD I also want to wear legging and skinny jeans and not feel enormous... just anything. I want to be comfortable in my clothes-- all of them!
