I was just NOT feeling it yesterday. When I got off work I was sooo sleepy and I wanted to take a nap before the gym. Anyways I left my keeys in the house and to go to the gym anyway to get the extra key from my BF who was at the gym. Well there was no way I was gonna DRIVE to the gym, PARK and proceed to GO INTO the gym and not workout. That would have been like the laziest sh** ever!. But I wasn't feeling still so I just got on the treadmill and did a mile and a half, of which 2 of the laps I walked. Yeah I was not doing good. So I packed it up went home ....SO basically I got in 24 minutes of cardio if you count 4 minute warm-up. I am upset that I didn't do more but proud I did SOMETHING even though I didn't feel like it. Yesterday was Day 4 of my 2 mile plus elliptical streak and thought maybe I was just burnt out.

Anyway I weigh tomorrow ...which always makes me nervous.

Tara Yor watch is broke! I am sure you run further than that!

Starmac Heh you survived and now you are here and back on track. We missed ya!

HWGA You are really advancing with the trainer. Keep it up!

Nicki Sorry you couldn't make it to the class, however if you ever get the chance run because it is awesome!

Bliss You got in TONS of exercise stop trippn! And I hope your doggie feels better

Bee That's what I do. I save all the money up b4 I go shopping because I hate credit cards for things like that. Thanks for the congrats.

Preppin HI and WELCOME! I saw you r name earlier and didn't even welcome you because I thought you up here all along! Thats when I realized we are on another on of the same threads....LOL

Casey You're awesome...I love brownies.....No seriously! And you did not sabatoge yourself WTG!!!

MoJO I am jealous! Vegas!

Becky Congratulations on signing your new lease!!!!

Where is my DansinDiva???

It went from 84 yesterday to 44 today :( hello sickness!

Hey! sounds like everybody is doing well... can't stick around for personals. It's ugly and rainy and I am making myself workout before breakfast so I don't get uber lazy, not do it, then snack all day. So I did the shred last night at like 10pm (because i got lazy and put it off till then) :lol: so i'm about to go do it again and this ab thing on demand. i really need one more video but don't think i can do all 3 right now...

so somebody kick my butt later and remind me to go at it again ;)

hope your mornings are all wonderful! it's a really blah day so you'll probably see me around :D :hug:

Today is gonna be a rough day for me. I took my pup (yorkie) to the vet to get fixed. She is like my child and not a dog so I am super sad that I can't see her until tomorrow morning. I hope everything goes well for her and that she recovers quickly bc seeing her in pain and not herself is going to break my heart.

On a lighter note, I lost another lb. I am hoping to lose 3 more by monday (ha) so I can be in ONEderland for my birthday. We will see how that goes.

Also, am I the only one that is LOVING the time change? I get to play in the yard and do things outside until 7:30 before I have to be confined insire. I don't necessarily like it being dark while I am getting ready for work but seeing my house in the daylight after work rocks!!

Have a good one girlies

Cake – Sorry, I’ve been lurking, so busy with work and school, I just haven’t been able to get on here! But I love your new (refreshed) do, and you look fantastic with your progress pics girl! So proud of your 2 mile streak(you know getting your hair did and seeing those pics put you in a damn good mood, and makes ya just pUsh PUSH PUSH IT GOOD!!), and not giving up yesterday, it was a sign you left your keys! Never feel down on your self for doing something, remember its staying down that will get ya! How is your tat doing? I realized AFTER I asked u if it was your first that you had several visible ones on your profile pic, DUH! Yea, I’m smert! So are you doing Vegas or the Beach??? OH YEA< you aren’t eloping..silly girl…haha

HWGA – DUDE, sorry to hear about that dumb dude, I know its super late response, but I’m so glad everyone told you to walk away, you know you are better than that. GOOOD Luck with the Interview, I hope you hear back from them!

RHTS – How was your NC Visit, you are probably still there, hope you get that job, I know you want to get out of the cold!

BLCarter – YAY, SO happy your date is going well, is this the same guy you had dinner with(I think it was at his house) and brought you lil guy? Damn weather getting in the way, at least you can get something out of the shoveling…I guess that has to be your motivation to go out and do it, I’m so lazy I’d have to get my hair dryer out and see how fast it melts! Hahaha, can you tell I’ve never had to deal with it??? Congrats on the apartment…that will be a work out in itself.

IconGhost- OMG! I have scar’s on my legs from last years mosiquitos!! They ate me alive last year, I’ve been dry brushing and using baby oil to try and get them to go away, I look like I have permanent chicken pox on my damn bird legs! (Soooo top heavy)

Casey – WTG on just a bite of brownie, everything is good in moderation, plus supposedly, the first bite is the only thing you taste anyway.

Bee- I think I have the soundtrack to the Harassment Training, if you got in my car right now,seriously, this is what would be playing right now! Hahaha, NOT eating for 4 hours and I think I would shrivel up and die…I HAVE TO EAT every 2 hours, I mean I don’t pig out, but I eat like a tomato or something…its totally weird, but it’s light and satisfying and keeps me from mow-ing down everything in the fridge at night! Gyms are such scamers, right now with this economy, I can’t believe they won’t change it…maybe its time for a different one, is there another one you might could check out?

Bliss – POOR PUPPY! Hope he gets better! I’d just want to go to court, get my marriage papers signed and then throw a friggin GYNORMUS party for the reception. Until I met my BF now, I always said I’d never get married, and if I did, it’d be fake just so I could have a party…who needs a damn contract anyway (life-time one)? Yea, my tune has changed now, but I guess that’s when you really know you are with the right person! Hope your medicine works…did you say you’ve never had the flu??? That’s crazy!

Nikki – Good Job not giving up after getting 4 lbs back…1 lb at a time is all it takes, and even though you didn’t do Zumba, sounds like you kicked butt anyway.

TARGET! – so one post was so positive and awesome, and then the next was a vent! Glad you got it out, DO NOT let that get you down, I’m glad you put into perspective how long you’ve been going at it, sometimes that really helps with your motivation. 45 lbs in 9 months is extremely do able, just take your intensity up a notch from last year, you’ll have no problem doing it. You know we’re all rooting for each other!

OK OK, so as for me, I’ve been freaking busy busy at work, I’ve been trying to come in here and catch up, but just haven’t had the time, so today I made it a point to get it done early. I have ONE class this semester and it’s HARD! I’m taking Programming Language C#, and it can be SOOO confusing, I had class last night and I’m so glad I went because the teacher actually went through a lot of stuff that was giving me a headache, so hopefully I can catch up tonight, so I can enjoy not having class next week, for spring break (thank goodness cause st.patty’s day is TUESDAY!!!!) With the exception of last Monday (the2nd)when I forgot my shoes I have been in the gym everyday or boot camp, or c25k! On MOnday of this week we did chest, and on the Decline I had 45’s on both sides of the hammer strength machine which means I was lifting 92lbs!!! Haha, I lifted HEAVY that day, So obviously lifting and boot camp are doing wonders for my strength. AnyWAY…Hope you all have good days today! I’ll try not to get too far behind next time, as you can see, I end up posting a million words!

Dansin- Yeah it is the same guy. Things are going great so far. Except for the fact that his girls and my son are all sick with croup!! So not a lot of sleep or peace and quiet lately.

I am in the process of trying to figure out how I am going to move everything. Today is sooo nasty out...with wind gusts up to 60 mph and its snowing..dont think I am goign to get anything done before I have to go to work. There is like insulation ALL over the yard and blowing against the house...my paretns are going to freak out when they get home and see it all.

Well time to go pack some stuff up and then workout(hopefully) and get ready for work.

ok, so i got the shred out of the way. didn't do the ab one yet because i was STARVING but i made an egg scramble with mushrooms, onions, spinach, tomato, black beans, and cheese and it is DELISH. it ended up being a HUGE plate of food (oh, how i love egg beaters) so i'm still chowing down right now haha.

mojo- as much as it SUCKS feeling so sleepy in the mornings i have been going out with my daughters for walks after dinner and i am LOVING that. so you're not the only one, there's definitely some bonuses...

dansin- 92lbs??!? :eek: thats so amazing! that's a lot of working out!!

carter- ahh 'those days' where mother nature is just like MWA HA HA you're not doing **** today!! hope you get it all finished... i'm secretly jealous i haven't seen natsy snowy weather ONCE this year though :lol:

tara So sorry that you aren't where you hoped you would be but I know you look fantastic and you're still trying and working at it. I think trying for the 2 miles is a good idea. Thirty min seems doable. I'm just not a runner lol. You'll get there girl!

hwga I'll be keeping my fingers crossed for you on that job. Let us know how it goes

star Glad to see you made it out alive. LOL. And I'm sorry it messed with your routine.

So being strictly OP for two days and all the water I drank helped. I'm back at 195.5. Like the horrid weekend never happened. Never again!!!! Well mb not never again but I won't let myself do that badly again. I know it's ok to go off plan every once in a while, but a whole weekend??? Come on!!!! I'm just really bad when it comes to exercise on the weekends too. I can come up with a million reasons not to do it. LOL.

So here's to the scale continuing to move down!

So I haven't posted here in a long time.. I've nearly fallen off 3FC posting wise compared to how I used to be. That being said I want to get back in the groove because I realized today.. out of nowhere.. that I'm 11 lbs from being at a normal BMI level. I have only been that one time in my life for a very very short amount of time. I'm really glad I noticed this because I just started talking to this new guy about a month ago and I'm trying really hard not to allow him to distract me from my eating/working out. He actually said something about joining the gym again the other night!! Which was very exciting for me because I've never dated anyone open to a healthy lifestyle change before.. (he's a lot of things I've never had before.. I'm totally in like right now :D)

I'm not goin to be able to catch up with personals today but hopefully I'll be able to keep up from here on out depending on work. Sometimes I don't have time to breathe..

Awww...
 

I'm sorry boo, BUT to be fair you guys aren't in a relationship. I'm not saying forgive him (at least not without being wined, dined, and getting a foot massage or something) but him getting some booty on the side and keeping it to himself isn't a big deal, nor do I think that's something to count him out over. Heck, the reason he brought it up and told you is probably BECAUSE he does want to take it to the next level with you eventually and thought you should know. *Shrug* IMO, he wasn't being a jerk at all. You guys weren't exclusive, and he probably didn't like her. There is the girl you like, take it slow for, and try to romance and there is the chick you call at 2 a.m. when you're half drunk and feeling a little froggy and might take to Taco Bell once in awhile. You can't take that too personal when you're dating or you will pass up some really good guys.

If it really bothers you that much then let him go, but that wouldn't trouble me at all. Mostly because my no-good self would be doing the same thing, and if asked I would probably get snippy and tell him it was none of his business. No ring, no verbal commitment, then don't assume you're the only one ya fool. :p But that being said, he does seem to have much better moral fiber than I do. GOOD LUCK ON THE JOB!!!!


Ash -- THIS WEATHER!!!!!!! I'm doing my gardening in shorts and bikini top today. I LOVE YOUR HAIR!!!!!! I want to cut mine short again, but DH would probably lose his mind. At least you went to the gym even though you weren't feeling it. Some cardio is better than none.

Mojo -- Awwww! Puppies are usually quick to recover. She'll be right back to her old self by this weekend, i'm sure of it. :hug: As for marriage, I have never understood spending money on a ceremony to celebrate looking at the same peen for the rest of your life. DH and I tied the knot on our lunch break in a courthouse parking lot. The guy who did the ceremony had on a metallica shirt and talked like Pauly Shore. :lol:

Cora -- :kickbutt: Do it again! Hehe! :p


Tara -- I feel your pain. I have been at this same weight since before Thanksgiving and it won't budge no matter what I do. You're in great shape though, so don't worry too much about it.

Star -- Cancun,The Keys... okay. But VA!? LoL. Glad you made it out okay.

Bee -- LOL!!!!!! I love those videos. And the gym is stupid. Is there another, maybe smaller one nearby? I wouldn't give them anymore money, that crap is so overpriced.

Bliss -- BEWARE OF CHILDREN AND THEIR STICKY FINGERS! I never get sick unless there are children in my immediate vicinity. And the spring flu is uck. Hope you feel better! :hug:

I am (surprisingly) not drunk today. My BFF came into town over the weekend and we went insane. By some odd twist of fate we did not get arrested, end up with people we did not know, nor did anyone pass out on the sidewalk and lose their purse.

The baby has finally cut the two bottom teeth and has more coming in, so he is fussing nonstop. I am *thisclose* to putting him in a soundproof box but his mom would probably steal it from me and that sort of robbery could ruin our close friendship. :p Other than that, the weather is gorgeous and everything is blooming here. I rode 15 miles on the bike. I also found out that NIN and Jane's Addiction are coming to Charlotte in June and I am so going to that. Whoo! :carrot:

good for you nicki! way to get back on top of things. no excuses, right?? ;)

i know how you feel nish! well, sort of... my 18 month old is learning to talk and she. never. stops. it's kind of like that episode of family guy where stewie is like 'mommy. mommy. mommy. mom. mommy. mom. mommy. Mommy. MOMMY. MOM. MOMMY.

WHHAAAAAATTTTTTTTTTTT???

'nothing.'

*Giggles!* I'm 23 and I still do that to my mom. She's entirely too awesome to be bothered with answering the questions of mere mortals, but I like to keep it exciting.

cake one day I will get to do it for sure. I know you're bummed that you didn't do what you had planned but you should be glad that something did get done

jahjah I know. Crazy southern weather!

cora I AM KICKING YOUR BUTT RIGHT NOW!!!!! LOL. I wish I had exercise on demand! Dang girl that breakfast sounds good. Not a bean fan though but everything else is making my mouth water. OMG!!! That sounds like a conversation with my 3year old! LOL

mojo Aw I hope you get your dog back quickly!!! I have to admit I kinda like the spring change too

dansin Sounds like you are doing excellent....with that class and exercise!!!!

carter Dang that weather sounds annoying! Don't worry you'll get all moved in

kelli This guy sounds great! Good for you for not letting him distract you!

hwga I agree with Nish. I have to admit that it would bother me. But if you don't trust that he is done with her then do not start anything with him. You need trust in a relationship and if you don't trust him in the beginning you never will. I would give him a chance and see what happens

nish LOL. Damn sounds like the weekend you didn't have sounded like the better weekend! LOL!!!!

:rofl: ok so the punchline is 'hi' but whatever i was close

breakfast WAS good. i put Franks Red Hot buffalo wing sauce on top and that's the BEST. its 0 cal and i LOVE it. i just made lunch which was a turkey, tomato, pesto, and fresh mozzarella sandwich on wheat grilled. it was friggin good too. if you don't buy fresh mozzarella you SHOULD. i've come to the realization that the REALLY good stuff is so much better than the fat free and you don't even care that you only use a little bit. (this applies to LOTS of foods)

so now i'm watching Biggest Loser that i'm behind on and letting my food settle before i get into more exercise. it's turning into a pretty good day!

Hi Ladies :wave:- no time for personals today. I just wanted to say hello! I went totally off plan last night! Eeek... And I'm supposed to be going to Buffalo, New York in a bit, to do some shopping..... you know what that means... eating out for dinner. I'm going to try to make a healthy choice though.
Hope everyone is having a fabulous day.... Bye for now :love:
