  • Oh my, were a chatty bunch...THAT'S GREAT! Quick update here....

    No power yesterday, we had a run around w/the power company agian. They promised to have it own today so will see, were suppose to be moving in starting tomorrow so gotta have power! The good news is we have water there and there was NO LEAKS, thank goodness! Its been sitting empty for a while so i was scared there would be...

    I will try and catch up with everyone soon...i got a short KickBox workout in yesterday, it helped with my anxiety...
  • Wish I could keep up with the chat! I'm too much of a spaz poster.

    This week I lost 2.2 lbs!

    Goal: 169.8

    Start: 175.8
    2/19: 175.8
    2/26: 173.6

    Very happy about that. 3.8 lbs to go!
  • This is what I'm not feeling like today. I have to get it together because I want to get to my goal by St Patty's Day. It was a struggle to do my 30 day shred with Jillian this morning. But I pressed on. I will make it to goal and I will maintain my goal for the rest of my life. This is how I pump myself up for days like today. I tell me all about it. As I still got to go to the gym a lunch to get my sweat and strength training done.
  • WAY TO GO KDM!

  • Doing good with calories today. But yesterday was a different story, I went 900 cal. over my limit. I gained 1 lb.! So, I am sticking with it now.
  • Thanks, Lori.
  • hey just a short little note before I am off to exericise, walk the dog, and then go to work!!! I am down a pound today so that makes it a total of 9 pounds towards my goal. I only have 11 pounds left to hit my goal. I really hope i make it but starting to think that I won't be able to since St Patty's day is coming close. I sure am going to give it a run for my money tho!! We will see. I've been going in spurts of dropping a few pounds and then nothing, then dropping. So i honestly have no idea what the end result will be. I have been OP as far as my calories go the last few days but I only exercised for 20 minutes last night and didn't exercise the day before that. I have just been really tired for some reason, no motivation to exercise. So i have to force myself today. I'm not going to be too hard on myself however since that will still be 5/7 days I have exercised. Well i'm off!

    Have a good day everybody!!!
  • Down a little today too..Even with tom in the building My niece is selling girl scout cookies and guess who has to buy some Shes going to be sitting outside a store in the cold to sell them so I have to go buy some....but then what? LIfe what do you do?

    Have a good weekend everyone
  • I've done well this week with staying w/in my calorie zone. I've not exercised as strenuously, though, because I've done something to my hip. I've done WATP videos 3 days and only 2 days of treadmill.

    Tomorrow is my weigh in day and I hope and pray it's good news!
  • Losing4another~
    My daughter was in GS and they use to have a program where you could buy a box and have it donated to a local charity/organization (The group is decided on by the GS). After cookie sales were complete they'd deliver all of the donated cookies. You can see if her troupe is participating in something like that. Then you could both "buy" the cookies and not have to worry about eating them.
  • your welcome Moto!!

    brrrrrrrrrrrrrr~its soooooooooooo cold Near this stupid door!
    It's snowing like crazzzzzzzzzzzzzy here in OHIO!
    ~So Just wanted to say~On my way to bed...near this door is not the place to be with asthma.....Looks like everyone is doing great! Keep up the super work!!
    Lorra~Maybe donate them to the local preschool in the area.....Or maybe eat 1 or 2 a day until there gone & just buy 1 box.(OMG Girl scout cookies are soooooo tasty!) I Band cookies from my house totally! They are full of calories & So delicious & too darn tempting to me. HUGS & GOODLUCK WITH THAT ONE!!!!

    Off to bed..............STAY STRONG EVERYONE!
  • Just got home from work...was going to wait until Saturday to start Wk. 7 of C25K, but was feeling good and we were slow at work, so I went ahead and did D1, 25min jog! And once again, only stopped once for not even 30seconds! I can't believe I'm able to do it! The DVD player really helps tho...I've been watching Twilight! LoL Even tho I've seen it atleast 4x, it helps pass the time as I jog along!

    ALSO, the scale has actually be friendly this week...and even with TOM attempting to arrive...but it's slowly moved down 0.2 every day...let's hope it stays down for WI on monday! Besides C25K tonight, I did WATP this AM before work...maybe my body likes 1500 cals...i dunno

    Miss--Good luck w/the move!! AND dealing w/those electric co. idiots!!

    Moto--Congrats on the loss!!!

    Jiggle--I like the way you talk!!! I need to start talkin to myself like that! Hope you're lunch break gym session was good!!

    Lori--Sounds like you need to move the computer!! LoL It's no fun being cold!!! Hope you don't get too much..my parents are in WV and they are only getting 7inches or so, but said everywhere around there were gettin hit hard! Stay safe AND WARM!! BTW, congrats on the loss! 150s are so close!!!

    fruit--Good job getting back OP...we all have mess ups..I'm starting to believe it's how we learn!!!

    farn--9 POUNDS!!! YOU GO GIRL!!!

    losing--Girl Scout Cookies are the DEVIL...just like Reese's PB Eggs!!! I had one yesterday...but counted it in my daily cal.

    susie---which WATP workout do you do?? I've been doing a few different WATP videos AND LOVE THEM!!

    HOPE YOU ALL HAVE A GREAT WEEKEND!! I'll be working and dreading TOM!
  • So excited this morning! I lost 3.5 pounds for the week!

    When I made my St. Patty's day goal, it seemed unreachable but now it is definitely in reach!

    Krista, I have the WATP for Abs that uses the belt/resistance bands. I have the 1, 2 and 3 mile ones. I did the 2 and 3 miles last week. The 2 mile seemed too easy for me now and the 3 mile made me feel like I was going to die about 2.5 miles in LOL. The 3 mile is more strenuous from the beginning. Maybe I need to do the 2 mile and the 1 mile back to back for now? They really are low impact, but I still sweat a little.
  • Another quick check in today. I am down another 3 pounds. I have been having these big jumps lately after a few days of no weight loss. I'm wondering if some of it is water weight...I guess we will see tomorrow. I just got done working out for 30 minutes and I stepped up the resistance on the elliptical, so it was a good workout. Did an hour and fifteen minutes yesterday. I will exercise more when I get home tonight probably just another 30 minutes. I have a 12 hour work day ahead of me! It's going to suck! everything else as far as calories and water i have been OP.

    Looks like everybody is doing well!!! keep it up!! It's almost March and our final stretch is coming!!!!!
  • mkyick- thanks for the info! They should put that somewhere when selling and I bet more people would buy an extra box just to donate. Will ask about it the next time I buy them. My daughter loves that movie too! Shes counting down the days until new moon comes out even though shes seen it already.

    Lori- Burrrrrr is right Yes you should move that computer until the door is replaced. Not only is it cold outside here but raining too yuck! All I want to do is stay cuddled in a blanket....Tom being here doesn't help either. I ended up buying 2 boxes. Was going to by three but luckly I only took 10 bucks thinking they were 3 bucks a box ... was told the wrong price so didn't have enough for the third. Lucky me Had my niece pick out what she wanted us to buy so only one box of my favorite thin mints...otherwise I would of bought only thin mints. The hubby is home this weekend so they shouldn't be here to long. We hardly ever have cookies in the house without me having my 100 calorie packs for back up

    Farn-great job keep reminding us on our goals...love that thats all i needed to hear today!

    Going to break down and turn on my darn heater...... burrrrrr Stay warm!!!!
