::Phanta:: I am definitely going to start planning out dinner. It'll make it easier on me food wise and stress wise.I am lucky though that I can't get to any take places very easily. My car isn't running so it's a long ways to get there. Not all that worth it in the end. I hate when I am trying to get something for dinner and I ask the DH what does he want and he is like "I don't know"< What sounds good to you? :mad: That just really upsets me. It's like. I just want to say I want to eat a half gallon of ice cream. :lol: Ok so maybe I wouldn't eat that, but I could really go for some ice cream.
Anyone have any ideas or suggestions for some low fat ice cream or ice cream snacks? I haven't really tried any so I don't know which ones are better tasting then others. Help.. NEEDING AN ICE CREAM FIX. :fr: ::Michele:: I had the Yoplait Chocolate Mousse Yogurt last night for a snack and I have to say. It was awesome. :cloud9: It was a great chocolate fix. I was just disappointed when there wasn't anymore. I am definitely going to have to buy some more of that. YuMMy. ::RR:: I am so jealous of you. I would like to be husbandless for a few days. :lol: Ok... My DH is just driving me bonkers.. He thinks because I don't want him to see some of my posts and the forum that I am hiding something. I have a tendency to stop typing and drop the screens when he comes to the kitchen.(Yes the computer is in the kitchen) I don't have any other place to put it. A one bedroom small apartment doesn't leave us much room. One other reason why I want to move back to Iowa. A job and a better apartment. My daughter sleeps in the front room because of only having on bedroom. I really want her to have her own room. I think she might sleep better at night. She doesn't sleep well. Anyways, as I was saying he thinks I am hiding something and I just would like to have some privacy sometimes. I don't think it is hard to ask for that. I don't bother him and read what he is posting on his 2 forums. Though he says he doesn't care. I can read it all. I am giving him his freedom to have some time only something that is for him. Geesh.. I think I have done pretty good today for eating and exercising. I had a bowl of Multi-Grain Cheerios w/chopped banana for Breakfast. For lunch I was going to have Tuna on a slice of toast but ended up giving my DD the toast and I put the Tuna on a bed of lettuce with tomato, green pepper, cucumber and a little carrot. If I need a snack later, I am going to have an apple or some yogurt.Not doing well on drinking water today. I have had a glass of Crystal Light Lemonade but that's it. I need to get moving. Not sure what's for dinner tonight. Probably something with pasta. Ugh.. Anyways, I jogged for 5 minutes. Usually I can only last 2 minutes, but my DD was doing it with me and it was more fun so I kept going. I did some stretches and situps. Going to row later. And more situps and stretches tonight. Maybe even a walk. Ok.. I have rambled enough. I should go take a shower or do something productive for the rest of the day. Keep up the good work. |
Hello all
Okay it's a new day here and I've planned out my food for the day.
The big trouble is will I stick to it. I've got a sinus/hayfever thing happening at the moment so my exercise routine has gone to the dogs. Hopefully I'll start to feel better tomorrow. It's Spring here and there are gorse bushes covered with pollen everywhere so it's a great hayfever season . Well better get ready for work...check in later. :dizzy: |
Hello all. I finally feel somewhat ahead of the ball as far as school work is conserned, however I have a whole lot more ahead of me. :( Anyways, I have a paper and final next Monday and mid-term in my class that is the whole semester and Final in a class this wednesday. It never ends.
I don't know who told me to check out Diet Rite, but it has no caffine! This is a huge problem. I need that. I know that I should ween myself off of it as well, but not during school. Thanks anyways for the tip. Well I need to get back to work, or at least look busy for the next 15 minutes. :lol: |
Back later, screaming child, but wanted to say to Annie...TCBY CHOCOLATE SORBET POPS rock!! They do it for my icecream/chocolate fix. And icecream is my vice!
|
OK, let's try this again...
Chaarli, you've made a great first step by planning out your food for the day. That way you are completely aware of what you are eating! Hope it works for you! Annie, Your food choices for the day sound good to me. As far as DH is concerned, maybe just tell him it's a weight loss site you're posting on, and you'd just rather keep your weight loss talks there? Or just tell him how boring it is....no good gossip here?! :lol: RR, I'm not jealous of you, I feel like I've been husbandless for 2 weeks now...DH has been really sick. He was diagnosed with Bronchitis, but I swore it was Pneumonia, the way he sounded. I almost made him go to the hospital over the weekend! He went back to the Dr. this AM and the Dr. said, yeah, I guess it is a little pneumonia. :rolleyes: He's already gone a round of Tequin, has an albuterol inhaler, and Advair. The Dr. gave him an Rx for a steroid and told him to use the albuterol whenever he needed it. He's got to go back in a week. Anyway, I'll be happy to have him healthy again, so I can get some help, and maybe a little escape from these kids!! |
Hello all!
I had such a wonderful and relaxing time at home today. I caught up on some reading, did some cleaning, and just hung out. I did really well on watching what I ate for being home all day. I went to the gym tonight and did 30 minutes of cardio :ebike: and 45 minutes of weightlifting. :strong: So today was a good day. I hope everyone else is doing well. I'm afraid to weigh myself because I splurged this weekend. I don't like to weigh myself too often anyway. I'd rather go on how my clothes are fitting me. Maybe I'll do it on Sunday and update everyone. Chaarlie I'm new here as well, but welcome! |
Back to 240 on the scale today. AAAAUUUGGGHHH!!! Going to PA for the week. Going to see my sister. She had the GBS and has lost 40 lbs already in 7 weeks. I am jealous about her weight loss but not jealous of how she has been feeling.. Can't wait to see what she looks like.
I got measured: lost 1 1/2 inch in hips and 1 inch in thighs. Everything else stayed the same. Must be all the minutes on the eliptical machine. |
I couldn't wait until Sunday and had to weigh myself. :goodscale
Lost five more! Yipppeeeee! Glad I did do it because now that will make me continue to work harder. Have a happy day everyone. |
Hi All,
Pearl, Congrats on the loss!! :cheer: That's awesome! When is that loss since? ER, Sorry the scale isn't going in the right direction. :( Is AF looming in the shadows? Or can you pinpoint what might have caused it? Please don't compare yourself to your sis. She did what she needed to do, and hopefully that will work out for her. I hope she's not having too many difficulties. You worry about what you need to do for yourself! Just concentrate on you!! Big congrats on the inches lost!! You know you're doing something right!! :cheer: I'm not doing too bad on my food choices, but I could be doing better. Going to try a little harder today. |
ER, that would be hard to see your sister drop weight drastically via GBS, while yours comes off slowly, the natural way. Either way (GBS or not), one has to learn a new way of living, eating, and moving. I guess I'd rather try to do it without a complicated and painful surgery.
Annie, there are some ice-milk ice cream sandwiches that I think are called Skinny Cow. I've enjoyed them on many occasions, and other family members will eat them as well! I have a job interview today! It's a second interview to one I had two weeks ago; this time, with the guy's boss. If I get the job, it would be a pretty decent promotion that I probably wouldn't get in my current job for about two years. I had a weigh-in at TOPS yesterday and I lost 5¾ pounds!! I also talked to DS yesterday, and he's talking about moving back home with me. YEAH! One more good thing happened - I had a misunderstanding with my best friend, and we cleared the air last night, turns out the situation was nothing like I thought it was. It's really nice waking up in the morning and remembering all the good things that happened yesterday :), especially after having a pretty challenging past few months! |
Newbie Here..I GAINED 3!!
Hi all. I'm new here and was SO excited to finally be serious about losing weight and I weighed myself yesterday, in the morning and I was 191.5. Last night I had a sensible dinner and walked on the treadmill for an hour..felt REALLY good. I get on the scale this morning...194 :?: It's a brand new scale so can't blame it on the scale...what happened????
|
Morning all.
Feeling pretty crappy today. TOM is here today. Not sure if I am going to get in any exercising but I am sure going to give it a go. I didn't do much yesterday. Got in some good stretching and 5 minutes of jogging. Normally I can get in 2 minutes and then it hurts my hips, legs etc. But I played a game with Emily. She jogged with me and it was more like fun so I ended up going for 5 minutes. I didn't want to over do it. I am going to do 5 min. for a week then bump up each week til I hit 20 minutes. I am hoping to get 20 min. of rowing in today if my back feels better this afternoon. So far I've had some yogurt to eat. I don't have much of an appetite right now. I am going to have some fruit in a few. Not sure what lunch will be. Lauren::TCBY CHOCOLATE SORBET POPS.. sound good. I am going to have to check and see if we have them at the local stores. With the DH he just thinks that I shouldn't have anything to hid from him. He just has a hard time with privacy. Guess, I am supposed to share all with him. I gave up my best guy friend because of him. What else does he want? Michele:: Congrats on the exercising. You're an exercising machine. I wish I could be that way. Just have to keep working at it. Plus, way to go on your weigh in. 5lbs... :cheer::cb::cb: some dancin' bananas for you. Congrats. Keep up the good work. ER::So sorry to here about your gain. I know it must be hard to see your sister losing the weight so quickly. You just can't compare yourself to her. You are both striving to be healthy. Just try to focus on your next goal. You can do it. ::cheer:: I agree with Lauren. You lost inches so you're doing something right. Just keep up the good work. Phanta::Good luck on the job interview. Congrats on the loss. WOW. Some dancin' bananas for you too.. :cb: :cb: :cb: You are heading in the right direction. Keep up the good work. Symplepleasures::Welcom to the group. I wish I had an answer for you. I don't know. I know my scale has done that to me before to. But I have an analog. It doesn't give the best measurements. I am looking into getting a better one. Maybe you are just retaining more water today then you did yesterday. I wouldn't let it get you down too much. Keep exercising and eating right. You can do it. Ok.. off to read some email. |
Good Evening!!
Welcome Symple!!!First of all, weigh once a week at the same time..Weight fluctuates way too much and it will depress U when U get that "off" number~~Keep up the excercise!!! RR |
Thanks RR! I will keep up the exercise and controlling my portions. I got the weight progress chart off this site printed off so I figured I was suppose to weight myself everyday but I will stop that!
|
Good Evening All.
I was just wondering here. It's TOM for me and well, I got curious and I got on the scale today. It said I was 2 lbs lighter. I always thought you weighed heavier during that time. Anyways, I was just looking to get some insight. I don't offically weight til Sunday but I can't help but weigh myself everyday. I really need to get over that. I have OCSW(Obsessive Complusive Scale Weighing)> :lol: Ok.. it sounded good. Stayce where are ya girl. Hope everything is going well for you. Well, I need to go have some dinner. Have a good night all. |
