Elwing: Congratulations with the running! There's no way I'd be able to do that at the moment so nice going!! Let us know about the boy too Also Happy Birthday for yesterday!!!

My weekend was ok, didn't eat TOO much...managed to stay in my calorie range Friday and today but yesterday I had quite a lot of wine with my future mother in law so went way over then Never mind though, these things are going to happen now and then. Still feeling ok about tomorrows weigh in though so that's good

I just bought tickets for me, my mum and my stepdad (my fiancé doesn't want to go) to go see Rhydian Roberts in concert in May and I'm SO excited!!! I don't know what it is about him but I just can't get enough! Really not the kind of music I usually listen to but aaaaahhhh!!! It's too exciting and still 5 months to go! NOOOO! Boo hoo and yay!!! There's not even an emoticon on here to describe it! Someone shoot me off this cloud, quick!

Hey guys! Im getting over the stomach flu thanks to myniece I won't be back in time to WI. I will.check in later. Go orange team!

Monday morning WI: 60.5 / 144.5 lbs.

No, I don't know how I did that either. It's ridiculous. I should not be losing 3 lbs a week any more, yet I am. Not that I'm the one complaining I'm only so little away from my goal weight! Knowing me I will be 66 or 66.5 the entire week now and hardly dip below, but oh well.


The boy was coming over and I was so nervous I hardly ate anything (maybe that's why?). He confessed to me that he nearly cut his fingers himself when he was making food because they were shaking so much. And... all went well . I haven't got a new relationship yet but it is so much like it... also I think it won't take long before it is. He's such a cutie

Aaaanyway, it wasn't very good planning to do something like this the day before I have to start a new internship. I didn't sleep very much and I'm going to shower now, or I'll be too late. See you all later!

Hi everyone!

JessieCat: Sorry to hear you're not well, hope you feel better sonn!

Elwing: That's so sweet about the boy Glad things are working out for you!

Monday weigh in: 211 lbs = 1lb loss this week.

Well, I suppose it's better than a gain. I'm currently sitting here eating a bowl of porridge made from water rather than milk. It tastes and looks like warm wallpaper paste. Yummy. Off to work in a sec so seeya later!

Edit: Well, I've just had lunch...485-ish calories...consisted of an 85 calorie salad (maybe less as I didn't have the dressing) and a Dark Cherry Mocha from Starbucks! Oh it was so good! Nothing else 'til dinner now but wow it was worth it! Every year I sample Starbucks' new Christmas taste and today was the day Good times.

hey everybody! i've been mia since wednesday?? maybe thursday? anyhow, i have been reading, just didn't have time to post responses. well, i was all about being able to post a loss today. yea, not going to happen!! and you know what? i am okay with that! i didn't do bad with my eating, i didn't have time to exercise. i did do 30ds on thursday before going to my parent's for dinner. didn't do bad eating that day. friday i went shopping (yea, i am one of those crazies who goes out on black friday!). eating went great and i was on my feet walking all day! saturday we had dinner at hubby's brother's house. didn't do great eating that day. yesterday we went to breakfast (i had 2 eggs, 2 pieces of toast, 2 sausage links, and a little bit of potatoes). breakfast was late (around 10) and i didn't eat again until dinner. we had baked chicken breasts and corn cake. so yesterday wasn't too bad. i maintained this week. no gain, no loss. 293. i am back in the game today though and for the next 4 weeks until christmas when i know that i will once again have some off days.

anyhow, just wanted to check in. i should be making more appearances now that thanksgiving craziness is over! i noticed that i do better when i am on here daily interacting with all of you and everybody else!

oh, today was my day to take measurements (the 1st of every month) and pics and all that jazz. pics, can't really notice much of a change (i do notice my clothes fitting better and/or looser, but in pics you can't see much of a change). measurements, 2 1/2" off my chest, 2" off my waist, 2" off my hips, 1/2" from both arms, 2" from my right thigh, and 1 1/2" from my left thigh! so total of 11" gone! and 8lbs lost for the month!

Just a quick post. I'm feeling pretty cruddy today, I've got a cold. Blech.

I did manage to lose this week though, my scale says I'm down to 177. So I think that's 2 pounds down from last week.

i did it, i am back in my groove! did 30ds just now. felt so good! i realized that i have missed working out the last few days. all i needed was a good day to get back into the swing of things and i just had my day!

Morning everyone...

Very tired, hardly slept last night, eating porridge, off to a clients in a bit...have a great day!

zzzzzzzz

Hi everyone. I hope you had a good day, because I did not have a very good day.

Story:
There was this friend of mine and I have liked him for a few months. There was definitely some chemistry but nothing happened all the time. So this Sunday, I thought: you know what, I'm just going to tell him that I like him. So I sent him an email. Soon he called me back to say that he liked me too and that he'd like to come over to talk about it. This is what we did and well you can guess how it ended up... you probably don't want any more details. This was Sunday night. Monday I was in kind of a glow, I was so happy because I thought it was finally all going to work out for me. Then, Monday evening, he called and said something was wrong and that he had to come over. He told me that he didn't like me as much as he thought he did - yes, as a friend, but not as a lover. He did not feel good about what happened last night. In short, he didn't want to continue. He was incredibly sorry about it too, but what does that help me? I just wish he'd have thought of this, like, 24 hours before he did. I'm devastated. I've been crying all evening and now I'm starting again. I really don't know what to do any more. I just want a normal, nice person who likes me too - is that really so much to ask?


Meh. I'm still quite sad and I also called in sick today. My diet consisted mainly of chocolate and fruit, but I did get an hour-long workout in (I hoped it would help but it didn't). Greetings from a sad, sad Elwing.

i'm sorry elwing!! many many hugs for you!!

just watched level 2 of 30ds. oh my! i think i am going to try it tomorrow. some of the things look doable to me, others are going to take some practice! i may find myself on level 2 a little longer than 10 days!

Elwing: I'm so sorry to hear about what happened!! It sounds so unfair Hope you're feeling better soon Well done for getting fruit in there though, not sure I'd have managed that.

jmb1981: Good luck with level 2! I've had a look at it and decided to stay on level 1 a bit longer

Off to work, byeeee!

Hi Everyone!
I am back and feeling much better. I missed school mon and tues, but today I got up and did the treadmill and 30DS level 1, day 7. It was soo much easier today. I haven't worked out since last wed!!!
I have no clue what the scale will say on Mon. I haven't WIed in in over a week...
Elwing- I am so sorry about the boy. My heart is breaking for you. He is a jerk if he doesn't see how special you are!
Jmb- I was contemplating moving onto level 2 before my 10 days is up. Let me know how it goes!
Anti- I laughed when I read that your porridge tasted like paste!
spikedpunch- feel better!
If I can stay OP for the next 5 days, I am expecting a loss on Mon.

Hey guys
Ok I dont know what is wrong with me???? I worked out today but I was just not feeling the whole diet thing today. I ate pretty bad,, lots of chocolate, etc. I just hate when my heart isn't in it. Why is it so hard to get back on track? I was so hard-core into this challenge, then it was thanksgiving and I ate bad, then I got sick, and that threw everything off. If there weren't any thanksgiving, I would have just continued to lose weight. I am disappointed in myself. I just need a few good days and then I will feel fantastic.
I am sorry team.. I don't want to let you down. I will try harder tomorrow.

My lovely cold has decided to take up residence in my chest, so for now working out is out of the question since just walking up stairs causes heavy breathing right now. Hopefully I'll get over this soon.

Elwing: Sorry about what happened. Boys are jerks. Feel better soon!
