Yay Smisen!!! That must feel great!!

Forest - that sounds awesome! I love those days when you can just keep going and going. And I MUST work out to music, if not I don't know how I'd find my pace. Also, congrats for living in the healthiest state in the country!!

Chele - Ooh. A date :) Sweating to the Oldie's sounds awesome.

I actually bought the night shirt because it was SO soft, and so warm. I'm trying to be frugal, so I keep the heat on 55 degrees (its not that cold here so its not a problem) and I figured a long sleeved shirt will help with the "maybe I don't need to turn the heat up again tonight" plan.

I've got a long work out planned tonight, including running and some Exercise TV and maybe a little Wii. I'm really enjoying running lately, but I'm only doing it every other day to go easy on my knees and shins.

I'm supposed to get my Omaha steaks in tonight, so if I can find my WW book that tells me how many points steak is, I'm SO having a filet for dinner with some asparagus.

Also, back down to 189.4 today :) :) :)

Congrats Jennierose and Smisen!!

Yay Smisen, congrats!!! :cheer:

Right, so, I officially hate water weight. I mean, I've always hated it but there is no way I ate enough (especially since I hang towards the middle to low end of my calorie allowance PLUS my workout yesterday) to be back up to 185. Stupid water weight. I'm shaking my fist at you while enjoying my morning green tea.

I am getting SO sick of this weather whiplash. Monday it was in the high 70s, then it was in the 30s at night. Yesterday it was cold and warm at the same time, and last night was FRIGID cold. I want to wear my winter clothes, so be winter already! And bring me snow. I want snow.

platformnine, Snow? Yeesh...I couldn't deal with that. lol. I think 4O is cold but that shows what kind of weiner I am. I bet its beautiful up in the tri state area now. I was up in Boston in October and it way fantastic. Anyways, I did my weighin and I came in at a huge 189.2. Annoying. I gained a pound. Oh well, will persevere. Have come up with some new "food rules", which is always good. Oh, and has anyone seen the "Videophone" beyonce/lady gaga vid? crazy.

Redliss - Lol, I loooove the snow :D And it is quite pretty this time of year with all of the color changes in the leaves.

Actually, it's really nice out today. Perfect fall/winter weather - the air is crisp. I think I'll take my dog to the dog park today :D

I would so exercise more if I had a dog to take to the park!

I love snow too :) As long as I don't have to drive in it.

I love snow too. And I'm getting used to driving in it now that I have studded snow tires and all wheel drive. We've had a few dustings here in VT; usually the major stuff starts in early December. It's like a practically guaranteed white Christmas :)

Stella- living in VT certainly wasn't doing my health any favors when all I was doing was studying. But now that I have more time it's so great to be able to take advantage of local organic produce and lots of trails and mountains to hike and bike and ski and lakes to swim in and a general culture that cares about good food and outdoor activity.

Yeah, I'd move to New England if I knew people up there. I fell in love with Boston the first time I saw it, even with the 3 feet of snow that got dumped on me and my plane in 2 hours.

I was okay driving in the snow in NJ, and if necessary, I could just public transportation it somewhere. Not in MD. Any sort of precipitation throws everyone for a loop...

Forest - I'm jealous, I love VT... but I also love NJ :< I'll just have to visit VT again!

Hah yeah MD's response to any kind of weather is pathetic. I remember in high school them closing school for "hurricane floyd day" bc it rained a lot.

I am actually a Jersey fan too. Yeah it has a bad rap, but I think it all comes down to whether you see things like the Jersey Shore, Medieval Times, White Castle, and proximity to NYC as pros or cons, and I choose to believe the former ;)

All you ladies talking about snow makes me jealous! I am going crazy today!!! I have too much to do and not enough time to do it in. Not to mention all the crazy people in the house only making the problem worse. Man I cant wait to get my own place!!!!!!!

you guys are all making me jealous! I totally have to do a US tour when I am rich and famous. I'm totally over cold though. Its getting warmer now, so naturally humidity is about to go through the roof. I remember last year it got to 100% or something ridiculous, I mean for goodness sake, isnt 100% humidity RAIN?? Jeez...

I knew there was a reason I thought you were good people. :)

Forest - See, I spent every summer at the Jersey shore - I don't possibly see how anyone could think of that as a con :D Also, I live in farm-y South Jersey (yes, ladies, there IS a difference between north and south jersey. Central doesn't exist) so I always think it's really pretty landscape :D Also, who doesn't love Medieval times?! Also - proximity to Philadelphia, Baltimore, and DC is cool too :D AND proximity to some great ski resorts! Awww, I love my NJ I'm never leaving!!! You'll have to drag me out kicking and screaming!

I have been crazy productive today. I did my classwork, cleaned off my desk (which I haven't seen the surface of in MONTHS), about to go workout, AND I re-organized my knits-in-progress and my fiber stash (I also spin my own yarn, so I have a fiber stash next to my yarn stash :D I love my crafts), and I played with my bunnies and brushed them! Now if I coud just get my laundry under control....
