Hey, anyone got any fall photo's they'd like to share. Here is one of my little stinker!
I wish we had Fall to take pictures! I really miss seasons -- maybe the next time we move we will move somewhere with seasons! And your DD is a cutie pie!

Let me know what you think of it. I'm trying to decide if I should get it or not. I'm doing so well on the FSD, and I want to know if it would enhance the program.

We are in Pensacola at the Naval Air Station. I would love to be in TN!!! I almost moved to Galitan (sp?) just north of Nashville. But I don't think I will be moving there anytime soon since they don't have an Army post! LOL
And guess what I did tonight?! I joined that running club and I jogged/walked the course -- except I cheated All of a sudden I realized that there was no one in front of me and no one behind me!!! And I didn't know the course. But I did know which direction I should go in. So I cut off part of the course to catch up with everyone. Now I don't know how far I walked, but I did it for 35 minutes! So happy I could burn some calories!
i'm alive currently cooking dinner and finishing a project that's cost me what, 5 bucks to make and getting paid 40 bucks for it. having chicken n veggies tonight.
Ok I got creative. I had a big container of mushrooms from Costco....put them to good use.....chopped them up with some mushroom soup mix and some beef bouillon cubes and water and onion..........got soup for now and for later and for later later to mix with thickner for gravy
i also sliced up what was left of my zucchini. I'm pretty full now
Great job on the walking Bonnie! I need to do that more. I'm thinkin' i'm going to go to the mall after I drop Bryan off at school and walk with the man. It's rainy today and getting to be close to time where I won't be able to wlak outside so that's what I can do.
Holy good job on the food...although I don't do shrooms. They're not a veggie ya know. They're a fungus and do you even know how they grow them??? lol

To everyone else. TTYL
Thank you to you too! And now you are sounding like my DH!! He won't eat mushrooms and continuously likes to tell me how they are grown. But he also won't eat onions, green peppers and most vegetables! No wonder I've gained so much weight! And I know that if DH wasn't in the Army and required to do PT 5 days a week, he would be fat! His dad gained his weight when he got out of the Air Force.
I'm a little sore from yesterday's walk, but I am determined to walk again today. And I need to remember that my goal is to run in a competitive 5K (hopefully by spring)!
Ok people, Stop everything!! Alert the media!! I have done it. I've lost 30lbs in 1 day. The scales said 120lbs, and we all know that the scales don't lie. : But wait, do you think maybe the batterys low.... Hmmm, maybe I should return all the size 0 clothes I bought...
I'm sorry, I know I know, I need to lay off the coffee.
spuds: Thanks I know where Galitan is. we lived in Columbia Tn for 5 years. Its south of Nashville, and my DD was born in Nashville. Its beautiful. But so is Pensacola. I lived there when I was in the second grade, for maybe a year. I love the beach. I want to go soooo badly.
There is an Army post in Clarksville Tn. my lil sis's husband is a Sgnt and was posted there for a while. (they are in Colorado. Fort Carson? I proly got that part wrong...) Good job on the walking (jogging) btw.
Holy: you go girl! way to turn over a profit.
Lol, now your posting like me.
This is this morning. (Pay no attention to the house. we still haven't closed that loan, and haven't settled in yet)

I didn't post in the last two days, and I noticed that when I post, I pay more attention to what I eat so I will definitley(sp?) check in everyday. I have been checking the site out and read about the South Beach Diet. It sounds interesting, and I might try it. Anyone have any thought on this diet. Carbs are my life so it will be tough for the first 2 weeks.
Bonnie- Good for you on joining that walking club. It reminds me that I have to start scheduling some exercise. Walking would be great to start off, especially if I bring the kids and start pushing the double stroller. I'll get in some strength training as well, that thing is really heavy.
Hi everyone....Today was a blah day....It's been raining all day, I'm fixin to go to the gym anyway!
Question: Since I have been exercising so much, everyday that I way my weight goes up 2 lbs until Sunday and then it goes down with a loss? Why does this happen when I have been drinking my water and eating 1200 cal, Can anyone explain this? I really want lean muscle, how can I still do all my exercising without bulking up? I go to curves three times a week and do a hour of exercise at home everyday.....treadmill, stationary bike, healthrider.
Wanna: I am so proud of you for drinking your water!!!! I am so proud of you!!! It's takes a while to get use to but evenually you will get use to it! It took me awhile, but I started to crave water and it got easier and easier to drink it! You go girl, It's hard I know, but you keep up the good work!
Don't remember who said it but Congrats on joining the walking group! I wish I had one here. It's lonely to exercise by yourself! But I do it anyway.
Hope everyone is having a great day! I'll check back later.
I'm alive...barely. The medication the doctor put me on for my heart condition REALLY MAKES ME FEEL TIRED!! Ugh! I feel like I could sleep ALL day. In fact, Sunday I did! Didn't go to church and didn't even get out of my pajamas all day. How pathetic is that? LOL
I haven't fallen off the wagon, though----yay me. I'm still eating well, just see no movement on the scale [probably because I'm not really working out!]. At work we are starting a "Biggest Loser" contest by teams of three. We have weigh-in on Friday and the contest is for 8 weeks. Whichever team loses the most combined weight wins a prize and I believe there will be a 2nd and 3rd place team, too. I'm on a team with two gentlemen I work with and SIT next too. That way we can keep on eye on each other!! haha
Here is my 2nd older son - 12 years old. This was right after his football game while we were waiting for my oldest son's game to start. [He was attempting a "mean face"]
I'm alive. I swear I'm going to change my middle name to DRAMA. Here's what happened....
Friday night I have rehearsal for the 80's Cover band. Ok, fine. I leave there intending to hit the road to Apple Vally to finish the Dora Mural, finally. ( Remember the back thing? Thats what set it back, well that and Gigs) Any WHO... I decide I'm WAY too tired after rehearsal and hit the hay to leave in the morning. I get out of the house @ about 7:30am and arrive @ about 9am. Not to bad for 93 miles. NOW, this is my maternal 1st cousins house, we are like sisters, I walk in and OH MY GOD!!!! Nothing less than a freakin tornado hit this place, not just one room but ALL rooms. I ask her "What the He!!!" Our Gma & Gpa are coming to live with her...TODAY. They can't stay in the SAn Berdo Mountains with Gpa's DD due to the altiitude...(DUH) They are 83 years old...YA think! Cousin was painting and redecorating the master bath and room for them. Of course, I had to help. The next morning , cousin goes to get Gpa EARly in the morning....The house is STILL a wreck. I am the only grand child to ahve lived w/ them and I KNOW He's gonna FREEEEEK! I clean up the house in record time while her loser of a husband watches me AND hit on me while my cousin was gone....Yeah real Gem. He did this the entire week end. Amazing. Then Cousin and I unload and unpack Gpa. He's totally out of sorts and upset and I'm the only person he is familiar with...I have to stay another day. I'm really missing my baby bout now BUT I gotta do what I gotta do. Cousin and I go Grocery shopping as I know what the Gparents like (they had me for 4 years as a teen)......Here's the REALLY good part......
We start my car to go and get down the street, stop light...It dies. Hmmm...Ok well, restart. go to the store, shop, load. Get in to go, start the car, put it in gear, dies. WTH?? CAr is 3 years old, bought it new, and have had EVERY service on time EVERYTIME!! Get it back, and that night decise to get it home. I get 1 freekin mile away and It dies. Starts fine. Blinker FREEKS OUT.... Stop at Auto zone just barely and they say its prolly Blah blah, its not. The thing won't ven stay started in gear now. Its going NO WHERE. I'm 93 miles from home, 44 miles from the nearest Saturn dealership and well I'm screwed. The next morning we call AAA and the chage me $7 for every mile past 7 miles......$308. FABULOUS. Get the car there an dafter 5 hours, they have NO IDEA WHATS WRONG , next day, still dunno. Today, "We are just gonna repalce the entire computer in your car, that outta fix the problem" Promising. The only good thing is I have the extended warranty and this isn't going to cost me any more $$. However, the car is in Ontario, and I'm in the OC. Bout 60 miles.
Ok I'm done. If you read that, you have the patience of a saint and I applaude you.
Food was crappy but minimal. I didn't have much choice. Oh and TOM arrived two days ago. LMAO.
I'm not doing well today. Knew it would be a challenge. "Chili Day" at work - with desserts and all. I had a bowl and a half of chili with some cheese and some fritos along with some carrots. But it is the two servings of three different desserts that has me knowing the scale will show it tomorrow. And no time for exercise tonight. Should have tried to squeeze it in last night. Really could have had I tried. Did laundry and helped dh with the kids instead. Tomorrow night will be about the same (assuming I find someone to watch the kids while I have to be at a meeting 45 min before dh gets home).
On top of it all, ds has a cold and has been hacking all night the last few nights. Forgot to give him cough meds before bed last night and ended up being awake with him for an hour or more middle of the night waiting for it to take effect while he just coughed and coughed. Ugh - not sure if I am going to be able to get him to the ped soon or not (or if I even should bother). He does better during the day (as is typical with a sinusey junk cough I suppose). But I am tired. And my gallbladder hurt last night. Not sure why since I didn't really eat that bad.
Stevi - I read the whole thing. I guess I am a sucker for someone else's drama. Sorry about all of everything going to crap. And that gem of your cousin's should be put in his place. Geez.
Fit - your workplace contest sounds good. Wonder what kind of prizes they'll have. Sorry to hear your heart meds are making you such a zombie.
JennyMarie - From everything I read, the kind of exercising you are doing isn't making you "bulk up" per se. And remember that increasing lean mass (which might be a very short term gain) is what makes you LOSE more. So keep up with the good eating and great working out regimine and you will be a thinner you in no time!
Carol - Good for you checking in. I wish posting made me more conscientious (sp?) of my eating. Sometimes it does and sometimes not. grr. Everyone I've known that has gone gung ho on South Beach has suffered some side effects. Apparently it is important to take certain supplements. I personally really subscribe to a more balanced diet. I really look to the way my dad (a diabetic) has to eat and think it is easier on your whole system to balance protein, fat, carbs, vitamins and minerals. Each has a "place" in the way the Good Lord made our bodies to work - lean tissue maintenance, brain function, energy, immune system, etc. Unsolicited opinion, but that is where I try to go. I definitely should cut some carbs from my diet as I tend to eat more than I should, but I will never be one to cut ALL.
707 - OMG about your dog and the pit bull. I wouldn't wait to turn them in. I would go ahead and do it now. Vicious dog ordinances are to protect us from predators like that! Hope you get to walk tonight.
WannaB - LMAO about your scale. I need one like that! Absolutely love the pics of your dd (and how cute working out with dad). The fall pic is really neat. Wish I would have gotten out with my kids to take some pics before all the leaves had dropped. Our fall color about mid-Oct is just amazing. I don't think I could ever live in a place that didn't have seasons (although I am perfectly happy to have snow just a couple times a year).
Out of time for more personals. Try to be back tomorrow with a few more. Take care all!
All of a sudden I realized that there was no one in front of me and no one behind me!!! And I didn't know the course. But I did know which direction I should go in. So I cut off part of the course to catch up with everyone. Now I don't know how far I walked, but I did it for 35 minutes! So happy I could burn some calories!

: But wait, do you think maybe the batterys low.... 
Hmmm, maybe I should return all the size 0 clothes I bought... 
I am so proud of you for drinking your water!!!! I am so proud of you!!! It's takes a while to get use to but evenually you will get use to it! It took me awhile, but I started to crave water and it got easier and easier to drink it! You go girl, It's hard I know, but you keep up the good work!
And that gem of your cousin's should be put in his place. Geez.
