Did everyone else take a trip this weekend?? :) Don't forgot to post your weight for the week :)
|
Melissa - any word on your grandfather?
Shelby - I know the feeling. I haven't moved as much as you but I tried counting up the different addresses I've had since moving out of mom and dad's and I ran out of fingers!! Mandey - that stinks about the carnival, but at least you got some chores done! Idealmuse - How excited are you for your tri? That's just amazing! I can't even imagine doing it! Is it near you or do you have to travel for it? Ugh back to work today! I decree every weekend a 3-day weekend darn it! |
Good Morning everyone!!
Heather...thanks for asking. My dad called late last night and said grandpa was out of surgery and sleeping in ICU, they hoped he'd sleep for a couple of days. Surgury took a bit longer than expected but all else went well. Now we just pray for speedy recovery. I'm with you this monday morning after a 3 day weekend is for the birds! I was gonna get up at 6am this morning and go WOG, but I had 2 extra kids last night who decided it'd be fun to stay up giggling all night long so I didnt get a good nights rest at all! So I will plan it again for tomorrow morning and work on the rest of my plan for today. Have a lovely Monday Everyone!! |
Yea I'm glad about g-pa!!
All this talk about AM runs is making me reconsider my morning routine. Maybe I'll shoot for it on Wednesday (probably not but I'm going to talk a good game until then :0) |
QOTD:
Is there anyone in your life or past life that once you've reached goal weight you are looking forward to them seeing you again, even if for no other reason than to say HA..how you like me now!? (ex: someone who has discriminated against you for size? a past love interest? a family member?) |
Make sure you PM me if you are taking a vacation freebie...or just post vacation freebie on your weight thread!

Sometimes when I am on the Treadmill struggling, I picture my skinny self seeing my ex. He was the love of my life, and we broke up 11 yrs ago, and I swear, I still miss him, still wish I had "tried harder", still dream about him. A LOT of my abandonment issues come from THAT relationship. (We won't even go there with the Mother issues)That is when I gave up on me. I've been discriminated against and insulted by a lot of people, but HE is the one I want to see me and have the same damn regrets that I do everyday of my life. He NEVER once said anything to me about me weight though, because I wasn't fat & obese then. I was only about 10 to 15 lbs over weight. I was going to go wogging early tis morning too,but I tossed and turned last night, so when Jess got up @ 5 am this morning, I rolled back over, went into a deep sleep and didn't wake up until about an hour ago. It's already Hot out, so I'll pass. Tyler Durden over on the Blue team has totally inspired my mind, if I could just get the body to cooperate, I'll be good to go. lol! Been a total struggle and I gained so I took a freebie because I am completely ahamed of myself. I've pretty much given up. |
Oh Roni, don't give up. I'm sure that things have been tough, and you're struggling right now, but you can do this. I wish I had the experience and eloquence to give you some encouragement right now, but the best I can do is to let you know that we're here for you. :hug:

Good Morning :), or atleast I think...LOL!
MY twin Nieces are coming around 6:00 tonight. Thier gonna be staying with me for about 2 weeks (what was I thinking LOL!). I'm starting the week off right! I'm gonna get plenty of exercise this week. It's time to shake those bumper numbers :D! QOTD: Is there anyone in your life or past life that once you've reached goal weight you are looking forward to them seeing you again, even if for no other reason than to say HA..how you like me now!? (ex: someone who has discriminated against you for size? a past love interest? a family member?) EVERYONE! Especially my Family. My whole family gathers at my Mom and Dad's house for the Holidays and I can't wait for them to see me! Thanksgiving is the next Holiday so by then I should be at my short term goal and probably even lower. Another person is ME! I can't wait to see what I'm gonna look like :). Roni~ I have an ex that I still think about and miss. I'm terrible because I'm in a relationship for 9 years now but I still think of him. We've even talked on the phone a few times over the years and we hung out once. I broke up with him for the guy I'm with now...LOL! Oh well, there's always that one person you never forget! As for giving up....DON'T! I know it's really hard but don't give in. You can do this! Fat Chick B Gone & shelby897~ I didn't go to the Circus. I couldn't do it. Those poor animals :( I heard Ringling Bros. were under investigation by the ASPCA for Elephant cruelty?? MonteCristo~ Thanks! I will never give up! I have never ever in my life changed my eating habits and stuck to it until now. I've been doing this since February. I know I haven't lost alot of weight but slowly I'm doing it. I've come to far to give up as we all have :D shelby897~ A fellow New Yorker :). I thought I was the only one. Were about in NY (If you don't mind me asking) I'm on Long Island. Idealmuse~ What's the scale saying this morning? WOW! 34 miles??!! That's great!!! And CONGRATS on staying OP! Melissa~ Thank God your Grandfather is ok! Scarey stuff! Keep us updated on his progress. Have a great day! I'm thinking of the rest of you read teamers :hug: Have a great day!!!!! |

Lonnie - You made me happy saying you didn't go :-) Here's some more info if anyone is interested: http://www.hsus.org/wildlife/issues_...cus_myths.html
It also has info on animal-free circuses that are quite entertaining. I LOVe cirque du soleil. good point on ME wanting to see ME! I can't wait to look in the mirror and have more things I like about my physical appearance then things I don't like. Roni - Please don't give up on yourself. Do whatever you need to do to get up and go! Everyone else - come out come out wherever you are!! |
*yawns widely*
I don't want to come out and play. *pout* I want my three day weekend back! I so entirely didn't want to get up this morning at 5am with the dogs. And I really do NOT want to work today. *sigh* I need to be independently wealthy or at least find me a sugar daddy or something because right now, all I want is to curl back up in the luxury of my husband-free king sized bed and snooze for a couple (10) more hours! Ah well. Such is life! I will be back later hopefully post caffeine with more energy and do some personals but until then - chins up and we shall all slog on through the fray! *mutters "stupid mondays" and heads off to find something that has caffeine* |
Melissa – I’m so glad your grandfather did well – love those tough old men!! Those of you who exercise first thing in the morning amaze me – I definitely think it’s better for you, but I’m more of a night person – my old body doesn’t move too quick in the morning but I work most nights until 2:00 a.m.!!
Is there anyone in your life or past life that once you've reached goal weight you are looking forward to them seeing you again, even if for no other reason than to say HA..how you like me now!? (ex: someone who has discriminated against you for size? a past love interest? a family member?) Mostly my dad – he was so proud of me when I lost weight the first time – my mom is overweight and he worries a lot about her health. He’s 76 and in pretty good health, and this sounds odd, but I just hope he gets to see me thin again before he passes. Roni – I still think of one specific ex quite a bit – I used to talk to him on and off (we dated in another state) even after I started dating my husband but I haven’t talked to him in probably ten years. I just think, even though I dated a bit, he was my first “love”. However, he never saw me with all this extra baggage. I’m sorry you are struggling – you are such a good supporter to everyone else – I hope you give yourself the same pep talk and are able to get back on track – we are cheering for you!! Lonnie – How old are your nieces? I bet they will have a great time with you. My two boys are going in two weeks to spend a week with my sister – I’m very nervous and will miss them terribly, but I’m sure they will have a great time. My sister is unable to have kids so I almost feel kind of obligated to share mine!! I’m about 20 minutes from Albany in between Albany and Massachuttes. I grew up near Lake Placid. I think I’ve only made one or two trips down “your way” in my life. Hope everyone is doing well -- the weather is beautiful today -- the kids started summer camp and swimming lessons, so it's like school never ended -- I'm on the road all morning again!! |
