WYLLENN (I know you're out there, or in here, or whatever) You'll see me on the exercise thread again. I have the half time show to thank for helping me out with the TM tonight.

Hi ladies

LILLION: Way to go on the misses jeans! im happy for you! i look forward too, when the day comes i can buy all my clothes in the regular section.
VILLANDRA: good to hear from you and congratulations on the wt loss, your doing so well.
PATTI: Im sure even if you had a naughty weekend eating, you havent done much damamge. everyone needs a cheat day every now and then:)
CHIMICHANGA: the Tae-bo tapes are awesome, but alot harder than the richard simmons i usually do. i have alot of richard's tapes and i generally do those or use the gazelle. i think i will start the Tae-Bo several times a week too.
To everyone missing this weekend, hope you are doing well.
Well, i had a good weekend both personally and food/excersise wise. im taking things one day at a time, and just trying to make good decisions as far as eating goes. my weigh in is wednesday and hopefully i will have done good. (i am one of the few at work that dont weigh in everyday, lol) Hope everyone has a great week and i will see you tommorrow:)

Sharon: Vanilla Green Tea huh? Well, I'll have to look for it or add some Vanilla to :coffee2: mine. Thanks for the idea! Hope you have a great week.

Emilymay:So proud of you for upping your :swim: laps already. You are doing awesome!

Melissa: :congrat: on being down 6.5 more! I think you will make your goal! You are doing wonderfully.

Lilion: :carrot: :woohoo: On your new size 18 in the misses section. I bet you look :whoo: like a hottie! So happy for you!

Chimichonga: Hope you had a great Superbowl without going too far off your program! ;)

Brenda: :?: Stooooooopid Scales! I'm sorry that your weigh in was a bad one. At least you can blame you TOM for it! Things will be better for us next week!

Patti: Awwww, I was gonna give you a :kickbutt: :frypan: and someone beat me to it. lol. Glad you are back on track now. :hug:

Val: :hug: You always make me smile. You have such a great sense of humor. Okay, May 19th will be here before we know it so you can do it. I know you have it in you. Every single time you want to eat something that isn't in your plan, I want you to think about Gabe. Think about the wonderful feeling you will have with all that power at your control. Think about the look on Stephanie's face when you actually meet your Goal! That is a great motivator! You can do it sweetie.

Ammi, Shadie, Catherine, Wyllen, Jilly, Kat, Zelma all of my mia chickies and the ones I didn't mention by name, come on back when you can. You are all so very missed when you are gone.

I slept a lot today. I stayed totally op and still have about 10 points left for the day I think. I know it is quite a bit. After I exercise I may have a treat of low carb ice cream bar. Just 2 points on ww plan. I have been noticing, thanks to journaling that I haven't been drinking the water I should be. So, I have upped my water intake today. Well, off to do the bike then report my weekly exercises.

Blessings all,
Annie

Valerie -- Did you shake and move to Prince????

I predicted the Colts would win and Grossman would fumble, even though I live in the Chicagoland area... just a thought I had!

too fat for u - did u actually do the push ups? :rofl: heheheh.. my pleasure, I love being a ball-breaker. :devil:

futurediva - cool!! i wish we could buy those tapes here, i will probably have to resort to ebay again. If you recommend it, I will definately consider getting!! Richard Simmons- what a character! :lol:

dogpal: thanks girl, i totally missed it- friends of DH's had a wedding on! Plus its not that big a thing here in Sydney, they like their rugby though. I did have a ff hot dog tho :D Who won?

To Everyone: I just did my afternoon workout- only did 20 min cause the first 8 was intense intervals on bike and it pooped me out severely!! I did like 10 min on the elliptical and crunches... then binged after on candy :cookie: :headache: . For anyone that hasn't had candy in a long time DONT. Take it from me, you feel great for the two seconds it takes to wolf the lot down, then after u feel like you've come out of a rats arse backwards. I hadn't had refined sugars for 2 weeks and very little fruit the past couple days... which lead to disaster!! Oh well.... I still have a chance to redeem myself tonight with DH we're going to the gym.

CANDY : ITS JUST FAT + DEPRESSION IN DISGUISE!!!! :nono:

Hi guys,

Just stopping in one final time for the night. lol.

Wyllen: Good job predicting. I really didn't care who one being a ...... total........ Uh hem.....Raiders fan. lol. I was rooting for the Bears though because I didn't know of anyone who was rooting for them around here but me. I adore Prince. To me best part of the game. lol.

Chimichonga: The Indianapolis Colts one. Their coach is a good guy. They worked hard so.... yea Colts. lol. Oops on the candy. I see all these new candy treats that are for sale and I think wow, they look yummy but I haven't given in to it yet. The stupid commercials are every where you look, TV, mags etc. Hang in there and get rid of the candy if you can't stay away from it.

I wasn't going to exercise today. I have been encouraged to take at least one day off a week. I am terrified, not exaggerating, that if I take a day off I will gain weight. Does anyone else feel that way? Is there anyone else who doesn't take any days off besides me? I did my exercises even after my prodding not to. LOL. I hope to get back to the pool tomorrow morning.
Blessings to you all,
Annie
