Roni He sounds like a real A** Hole!!!!!!!! Punch him! LOL
I dont think that I can help with the 3 week win. I have been very bad! I cant stay away from the sweets and have no desire to run. I hate when I get in this rut. I have to get back in the swing of things starting now....so I am MAKEING myself get on the tm! I will check back in tonight. ta ta for now,
Not much time to post. We are putting a fence up today. Lots of fun I tell ya. I just wanted everyone to know that I am thinking about you all. I hope that this last week has been good to us all on the scale.
Diva---Big hugs to you. Just think about how good it will be to see the look on your future FIL's face when you lose all the weight. It will all be worth it then. Hang in there. He will be going home soon. Hugs.
Roni - I am right there with you! I have a father-in-law (and mother-in-law) who are like that. When my hubby weighed 300 pounds, his parents felt the need to tell us BOTH how we needed to lose weight. THEN, they went and bought the hubby a HUGE box of chocolate cakes (yes CAKES) for his birthday?! WTF?! Even now that hubby and I have lost weight (hubby has lost 100 pounds!) if my hubby goes to eat something his dad will joke about being careful about putting the weight back on. I get SO FREAKIN IRRITATED with them! SO, I COMPLETELY understand how you feel. The only thing is, I LIVE with my in-laws. When my daughter turned 2, we changed her milk and my sons milk to 2% instead of Whole milk. My father in law felt the need to tell us that that was good because my son is getting a little chubby and we don't want our son to end up like my husband. I was like "he's 3 years old!!!!" He's not even chubby - he's built like my hubby, and he's all muscle - the kid is stronger than I am! They just make me so mad! Grrrrrrrrrr!!!!!!!!
Other than that - I'm doing great!
Soulbliss - thanks for the article..... very intersesting! At least I know my kidneys are functioning properly

Diva & Julz - You both have my sympathy!! Julz, the recipe looks GREAT!
Ceegee - No leftovers?? lol. Must have been YUMMM-MEEEEE!!!
Hope4me - 3.5 pounds is awesome!! Congratulations!! Have fun on your vacation. My mom loves to walk with me after dinner in the evening. Maybe yours would like that, too.
Caitbeans - I can't believe that stupid WW woman said that to you!! Who does she think she is? I lose weight just like you do. Lots of people do. I'd have said something to the leader about her. Losing weight is hard enough without an attitude like that at weigh in. BIG HUG!!!

OMG! {{{{{{{{{Julz}}}}}}}}}} Bless your heart honey! I'd rather DIE than live with that man! LOL!
I did it!! I got off my butt and run/walked for 30 min in the cold weather! I was not in the mood for the tm so I got the dog ready and off we went! I always feel better after.I dont know why I put it off.....check back later.
Well, I just got back from urgent care. The GOOD news is that I am down 8 pounds!!!
The not so good news, okay the really cr@ppy news is that, after a chest X-ray and exam, I have a fist full of medications (including a steroid, oh joy! ) and a diagnosis of bronchitis.
Here's to hoping the 8 pounds don't come right back with additional friends!
Caitbeans, the post Ggmugsy made reminded me of what that woman said to you. I think that her approach lacked tact and was presumptuous. It IS common to bounce up and down a bit even when ON PLAN 100%! Anyway... Here's a "hug" for you and a kick in the rear to her!
Rainlips, good for you for exercising in the cold!
Ahill1979, just think of all the calories you burned doing that fencing.
Diva and LondonJulz, I know how awful it is to have in-laws who treat you like that. I won't get started on my situation.
SB- I hope you're feeling better soon. How long will you have to take them steroids? I hate them things...That's what started me down the path of obesity. BUT, 8 LBS is great!!!!! Keep it off girly!
I'm taking a freebie. TOM has me up .8, so hopefully next week I'll be down 3 lbs! lol (A girl can dream) I switched over to The Daily Plate to count my calories. I think I like it better that fitday because it offers a lot more. They have groups, and forums and what not. I dig it.
I'm gonna do the GYM thing today and pray I don't hurt my foot again. I'm gonna wear my old faithful shoes. I have to deal with some unpleasent business downtown, and I may peek in the bridal shop while I'm down there. Maybe it'll lift my spirits.
Well ladies, I just want to say that something is going on with me, and it's not good. The past two weeks I've been going horribly off plan and it's showing horribly on the scale. I know a lot of it must be water weight, but it's still showing and it's not good. I had to take a freebie last week because it was so bad, and this week I posted my weight, but it isn't good. I'm not sure what is going on in my head, but during the past 2 weeks I will be good for a few days, then just eat crap for a few days and not exercise. This is not like me at all. I am not sure what is going on in my little head, but I need to figure it out quick because I can't let this weight creep back on me. I am coming up on my one year anniversary for starting my weight loss, and I think I am obsessing about numbers too much and it is taking its toll on me. I'm not sure what I need to tell myself, but I think me, myself, and I are going to have a serious chat tonight when we get home from work.
i haven't worked out until last night in 6 days... i hate it... but i will be going back tomorrow (won't get home until late tonight)... i will weigh in this week, but i will be taking a freebie next week since i'm going to disney world and not planning on staying on plan 100% with visiting Epcot with all the different varieties of food there....
Sorry to hear about the in-law troubles!! I too live with my MIL. It usually works out pretty well...she works full time, the kids love having her here, she is a great cook...sounds great right?? Well, I sometimes feel like the 3rd voice in the house, and I sometimes compare myself to her, and I know that she wishes I could keep the house cleaner!! I do love her, it just gets a little crowded sometimes. NoVaVTfan... I have had one of those weeks too!! I just wanted to give up for a bit...hated myself as I was stuffing my face, and drinking that Coke! Maybe it is those winter blaws attacking us!!! We are pulling for you! Rainlips....way to go....out in the cold! Soulbliss...sorry to hear about the bronchitis....take it a little easy until you are 100% sculcmnky...have fun at Disney!! Have you been before? We went there for the first time last October...loved it, and can't wait to go back. I was able to maintain while we were there...lots of walking, lots of water, and we kind of snacked during the day because we had our big meal at night.
Got out of bed this morning and off my butt....something I didn't do too much last week. I did my new TBL Cardio max video...I am in worse shape than I thought because level one just about killed me!!! My intention was to do the cardio and then the sculpt....no way!! I will save the sculpt for tomorrow. Has anyone tried these videos?? I think I will enjoy them.
Now that we have set our clocks ahead, I plan to start the C25K after dinner tonight. Hopefully, most people have cleaned their sidewalks after our big storm from Saturday (I haven't seen snowbanks so high in years).
Anyway...time to go weigh-in....not hoping for much this week..sorry ladies.
Back on plan today...fruit smoothie and a piece of toast for breakfast!
Have a great week....March break is here...not expecting the kids to get up for hours!!
I hate to be negative and maybe it's TOM messing with me, but it really urks me that I can't find a single diet forum @3fc's where I feel accepted and comfortable posting. I've tried Calorie counters, low carbers, South beach (where one was rude and I never went back), YOAD, where they rarely ever post, and back to calorie counters. I have made attempt after attempt to post with them and get to know them and it seems my posts are ALWAYS overlooked, like I am invisible. I'm sick of it. TBL & Exercise forums are the only place where I feel I "fit", yanno??? Sad thing is, we always have an "in between" challenges time where I just kind of feel lost. Sigh...

) and a diagnosis of bronchitis. 
8 pounds!!!! wow!! Way to go (even if it was because you're sick).
