cakses - I'm getting more attention now too. Not tons but I really didn't get any before. Its kinda cool and embarrassing like you say. Not sure how to deal with it. What "type" of music is the Crystal Method?
Hun.e.B - did you say cookie dough?? MMmmm how dangerous!
Shy - It's great they have confidence that your clothes won't fit in a few months. I just ordered an online bathing suit scared it's not going to fit.
skinnyvibes - Use the stress energy for some activity maybe? I know how hard it is to hold down your habits/food with all that stress going on.
Tina30 - Your so brave for going to OA! I'm glad it's going well so far. I could do weight watchers and that type of thing but OA just scares me. I'm not sure why.
Diva - (Our adopted Red member!) Hope your doing well. Sorry I havent gotten that running info yet. Do you still want it?
Scenestealer - Plus if you get the smoothies you won't end up with the XL one like last time. LOL The step during biggest loser is a great idea. I've been doing the bike but the seat hurts too much or the rebounder but I can only take that for 45 mins because it hurts the feet. I'll try the step next week thanks for the idea.
jelynn - the scale likes to do that down on weigh in day and up the next day too. Drives me insane but I know that's just how it goes and roll with it.
Andi18 - hope the ickies are gone!
Catsgetnhealthy - wrestling boys sounds like a handful. Do the practice at home?
melissa73 - It's got to be thrilling to see a 1 in your weight. I was getting a 0 today (209) make me flippin' happy.
ksk571 - glad the scale finally budged for you. I hate those limbo weeks. Wow you got your results back FAST I didn't know you could get on the spot cholesterol checks. I went for the cholesterol stuff in the fall and I was basically in the normal zone (high end) once again but mine still has to come down a bit anyway. Sometimes it's not just the weight that causes the high #s.
Lets see as for me... my bike came today. Dropped it off to be assembled but it won't be ready until next week because I took it to a really good shop. I guess I'm not in a hurry since it's still pretty cold here. It looks GREAT though!! The guy said I got a really really great deal.
I did only 45mins of exercise today. I was on the rebounder for 45 minutes and I popped in my #s and it only burned 288 calories? OUCH. So I'm a little over for the day for my goal calories, but still under maintenance at least although I'm hungry I might have a grapefruit half before bed.
I've noticed the quality of what I've been eating while in calorie range has gone WAY downhill the last month or so. I'd hate for a nutritionalist to see what I ate today!! Like today I had left over sweet potato fries, a kashi bar, 2 small bagels, 2 pieces of pizza, a latte and 2 cookies. What the **** was I thinking? Especially with the way I exercise I need to fuel my body properly. Hello Veggies? I don't eat that bad every day but I need to get on track more it's not JUST about the total calories anymore. I can't live that skinnycow/100caloriepack way of thinking because that's how I coped all the other times I lost weight and eventually failed. No risk of that happening here and now, but I just want to get away from that. Treats are fine but you know one or two not half of my calories for the day.
Hmm... what else...Oh hey and I did 7 minute runs the other day 7run/2walk for a total of 45mins out of 60 running yesterday. Woot! That means I can run just over half a mile at a time now.
Hope everyone has a good Thursday!
