Going to be another great day up in the 50's again.
Nothing new except I might have to go to jury duty this Monday.I'm not looking forward to it at all..See I have to get to the court house by way of a rotary and I don't like them. I had a scary encounter on another one several years ago when I had the right away and a panel truck almost side swiped me, SCARED my half to death.Now I found out that it going to rain on Monday.Wish we had traffic light instead of this rotaries[round a bouts].
DGRAMIE-I'm the queen of SODIUM,as I crave more salty foods than sweet. I now buy low sodium foods,and I put the salt shaker away and now using Mrs.Dash herbed seasons instead.Extra water is a good idea with some lemon juice will take that extra weight off as lemon juice is a diuretic.
PRINNY-Oh I sorry I didn't know. I'm trying to think ,I saw a fitness web site that I used to go to when my DH had bad knees.I try to find my old web sites and get back to you.My DH uses the stationary bike to keep his knees from getting stiff.
Welcome to all the newbies! I was really hoping to see 159 today but I am telling you, me and 160-s became so close since we were together so long, and he didnt want to part today. 160 was the WI. I am confident I will get em evicted this weekend!! ahahah
Good luck talk to you later. Many wedding things to do!!!
Good morning ladies!! I'm ending my week on a great note. My total weight loss is at 13lbs!!!!!!! Yay!!!
I'm staying in my calories and people I work with have started noticing the weight loss. And it's Friday so what could be better....other than if it were Saturday.
Hope everyone is ready for a spectactular weekend!!!
I am getting so frustrated with being sick. It just will not go away. I can't sleep well for coughing, and I am keeping my husband up. I can't work out and soon it'll be too hot for me to work out. I HATE spring and summer. I become uncomfortable when the temperature gets over 75 just sitting around. I have been stuck at 170.2 for days. Not happy.
Looks like another day in the 50's but it just not warm enough to wear lighter clothes.
Nothing new,I for got to get on the scale so I don't know the results until next week.
SHANNON-I know how you were looking forward to move down in the 150's. I was hoping for the same result by the end of this month,but its not going to happen,but there no reason why you shouldn't reach your goal.
SKINNY-BIG CONGRATS on your 13lb loss.That must be a great feeling when other people notice. That's a super Congrats right there.
PRINNY-Sorry I looked for the web site for exercises that could be done with bad knees . Must have thrown out the list. Did you see a doctor about your illness. It might be a sinus condition as I having that right now,with the the buds springing out from the bushes & trees.
Have a great day and weekend if I don't come back.See you next Tuesday as I have Jury Duty this Monday.
Hello Ladies, Im new to the boards, but am a calorie counter as well! You can call me Vegas or Mar I hope to join you all in a daily chat! I just reached a 30lbs. weight loss as of yesterday! When the heck can I add a freakin signature?!
Skinny - CONGRATS on 13lbs!! I personally love the number 13
Prinny - It seems like SO many people I know are sick right now! I hope you feel better soon! I also know about hating the heat. Im in Vegas, so 115 degree summers are all I know. Thank goodness for a/c & pools I tell ya!
beach bum - We are waiting for the new insurance cards to come in the mail, until then no dr. I am actually 90% I have a sinus infection and about 80% sure I have bronchitis too. Having these always ends up with me getting pinkeye and once that happens I WILL have to have my husband contact them and force the issue.
I am using saline nasal spray to help with the sinus infection, but nothing I do helps the coughing. I only got 5 hours of sleep last night because of it. Robitussin helps for like half an hour then I start coughing again.
No I am not logging the Robitussin. I think I can survive a few teaspoons of cough syrup as day.
Prinny: I hope you feel better soon. As a person with sinus issues, I know they are no fun.
Vegas: Congrats on the 30 lbs!
Well, all together I lost a little over 2 lbs this week. It would have been more but Friday and Saturday threw me off a bit since I was celebrating my b-day. DH brought me a cake which was very good and we went out to eat too. Plus, I had some Starbucks and soda, basically stuff I don't eat a regular basis any more. I'm pleased though. I finally got into the 170s.
I started a new job this week which kinda threw me off some. I was surprised that I actually lost weight because my schedule was off which affected my eating. Still, I made sure not to overeat when I did eat and to eat healthy. I normally go grocery shopping in the day but with working I didn't have time to go until this weekend. So I made sure to get some stuff for lunch so I don't have to buy any, fruits for snacks, and I brought more oatmeal for breakfast as well as eggs.
Faith - Thanks for the congrats! It seems as if you & were basically at the same starting weight, current weight, and goal weight! Our heights are almost the same as well! SO YAY us!! Happy belated birthday to you & congrats on the new job!
As for me, a bit stressed with trying to find hubby a new work car so I can use the brand new minvan we just purchased. When I stress, I dont want to eat, but I force myself. Also, the monthly friend is now here, so I wont be weighing in until Friday or so!
Hello Hellooo! I'm back - Its been 2 weeks! I know I know you missed me didn't you!
Wow! so many newbies I hardly recognised the place!
I've tryed to stay on plan the last few weeks but we have been celebrating lots of birthdays and selling our house!!! stress free now. I did manage to lose a 1kg but I'm going to stay OP with NO slip ups til Easter.
Dgramie - so pleased the wedding went great. You'll be happy to know I'm sort of on track with wedding plans! no firm date yet as we have to work around venues and BF's Exams and school - hes in his final year as a electrician.
Feeling positive and big goal is to be in double figures for the wedding - which is still BIG but better than I am now ah!
I think i went thru a post wedding slump. I ate way to much last week and didnt really care. The scales show it to the note of 4lbs gain. Sat night i woke up sick with a stomach bug..a BAD one!! Yesterday calories were only 650. today i am back at it and feeling pretty good just weak!!
I got looking at my journal and see that i have slipped pretty bad. To many white carbs, not counting creamer in my coffee which is 120 per day. I am cutting my calories to 1300 for a few weeks and see what happens. I also got out my meausring spoons and cups again. I am also going to try and do more protien and less carbs..
miss loud- so glad you are working on the wedding stuff.
Thanks everyone for the congrats! I'm pleased...and now I have a siggie so my progress will be there
Beach: I love your posts. You are always so encouraging and really keep me motivated.
Prinny: I hope you feel better. I have a 7mo old with the flu and there is no treatment for children under 1yr old so she has to suffer through it. She also has asthma so you can imagine what my nights are like right now. Def need the coffee this morning Hits the spot!!
Vegas: That is wonderful!! 30lbs is a big milestone. You must be so proud of yourself. for you!!
Faith: Way to go losing even on a bday week! That's impressive. The slightest thing always makes my weight go up. :banana:
MsLoud: I'm glad to see you back. Good luck on the wedding plans. I'm glad you were able to lose while you were away from us, but come back more!!
hello, ladies
it's been a long, long time since my last post, and of course, my weight is back where it started, which is a lot :/
but this time I'm sure I'm going to make it bacause my boyfriend, who I live with, will do the journey with me
this means I have my gym buddy, and I don't have to cook two separate meals, yay
today is our first day at gym, so I hope it's going to be allright.the worst problem is that I didn't see anyone overweight last time we were there (on a lookout). So today I'm going to be the only fat chick there, but I hope people won't pay any attention to me
Good morning everyone. Its Monday, and time to get back on track for me. I was in Daytona Fl for bike week Saturday and ate REALLY bad but it was oh so yummy and I don't regret a bite of it.
DH brought me a cake which was very good and we went out to eat too. Plus, I had some Starbucks and soda, basically stuff I don't eat a regular basis any more. I'm pleased though. I finally got into the 170s. 
Hits the spot!!
That is wonderful!! 30lbs is a big milestone. You must be so proud of yourself. 
for you!!
