Lori: you may want to try. I have others on the front of my home and they are spiral like shaped. With the right tools it may not be something really hard to do.

I wish you a Happy Mother’s Day to all of you!!!

mkyice--I noticed the same thing w/the dimples after I completed the C25K program...speaking of, I need to start jogging again!!! :) BTW, I also changed my WI days...I have been changing them to match the day these challenges end on...

Sugar--it wouldn't hurt trying 13-1400 for a week or 2...I've been consistently losing 1lb/wk ranging from 12-1500...if it doesn't work after a couple wks, then you could try another number...we're all different...and 1300 is definitely NOT TOO LOW...GOOD LUCK!!!

Lori--Glad the storms didn't hit ya too hard...Nashville is FINALLY starting to clear up...the flooded areas are a disaster!! AND, the Wal-Mart in my town was totally flooded...the parking lot is crazy w/dumpsters...I guess they lost everything...it sucks bc that's where I did ALL of my shopping, but I'm very thankful I wasn't personally affected by flood waters at my home...

Aluxa--Congrats on hitting your 165 goal...NO LONGER OBESE!!! Isn't it a great feeling? I was thrilled when I became just "Overweight" LoL...Keep up the good work!!

As for me, I did day 2 of Level 2 on 30DS...man, it's a killer! surprisingly I wasn't sore today...ALSO....I think I'm officially in a size 12...I just got back from shopping and bought like 4prs of shorts, 2 capris, 1 dress pants (for work) that were all sz. 12 from all different brands...and 2 shirts & a dress that were size L...the only probelm i'm having is still in my upper legs...some of the 12s were WAY too tight in the legs/butt, but the 14s were then like 2-3inches too big in the waist!!! I've really been slacking on my cardio (well slacking really doesn't apply when there's been NONE since I started 30DS! LOL) and I know you need it to burn fat, but I had been doing mostly only cardio since I started in Sept. and wanted to do 30DS for strength training...I thought I'd concentrate on completing the 30DS, then add in cardio while re-doing 30DS 3x/week....but maybe I should add cardio now??? I dont know?!?!?!

HAPPY SATURDAY EVERYONE!!!

Lori259 05-08-2010 05:49 PM

aluxa~yes I think I will try in the future...Once I get a few dollars ahead~saving for propane fill up for next winter & Christmas, & School clothes & emergencies~I prepare early~LOL.....But maybe i can squeeze one in.I really wanna try it.


KDM~So glad you wasn't effected yourself & I hope they get everything up & running soon fr ya~there still all in my prayers!! OH & your must be shaped like me~try on Jrs. sizes maybe a 15 jr or a 13 jr will fit just right!
I have had to wear alot of the in between sizes LOL! Or just go for leggings they are so in style right now! HUGS!

Off to do another round of walking which should thrill my family~My "TOM" Is making me a real "B" today ~LOL My family is thankful I am online ignoring them for the moment ~hehehe!

Hi everyone, I had 1175 cal. today. Somehow I am able to eat 100 more calories a day and lose weight like crazy. I think it's the little bit of jogging I am doing with my walks. I lost 1.2 lbs. yesterday, so I am down to my goal! Mothers day is tomorrow, I'll probably blow it again!

Tink2lose 05-08-2010 06:08 PM

Hello everybody,
Finally feeling much better today. Its a gorgeous day outside, and I am excited to get out and take a nice long walk. Its the first time in almost a week that I get to do any kind of exercise:carrot: Even though I have been OP for the most part (had a few indiscretions on Thursday, oops:o) I am nervous about weigh-in.
Anywho...

HAPPY MOTHERS DAY!!!!:hug:

beachlover86 05-09-2010 12:32 AM

So... I weighed in this morning. Down 1 lb. :) I'll take it with the stressfull week I had. Still have 1 more final for this term which I am hoping to get mostly done tomorrow. I only got 4 workout days in this week. :( Was going to make it today until my sis invited me to the outlets. A shopaholic like me cannot turn down shopping at outlets. lol.. So I guess i will just have to make up for it tomorrow. Hope everyone else is enjoying their weekend!

SugarRox 05-09-2010 10:01 AM

Happy Mothers Day!!

I weighed in this morning, even though my official WI is Monday, and Im down 1lb. Hopefully is lasts until tomorrow lol.

Im making a blueberry french toast casserole to take to my moms for brunch this morning. Obviously its not the healthiest dish, I didnt do the numbers but Im sure its WAY over my calorie allowance for breakfast. Im only going to try a spoonful. :)

I hope everyone has an awesome day.

ShylahEQ 05-09-2010 10:13 AM

Happy Mother's Day ladies!

I only got 2x of working out this past week. Stupid arm cut me down for 3 days. Good news is I'm already down 1 day for this new week. I will totally get 3 to 5 more.

Also down 2 pounds in the past week. SO happy to see my scale finally moving again. It's the best motivator ever, even though I know it shouldn't be. Watch out 240s!

misspriss78 05-09-2010 02:52 PM

Happy Mother's Day! Just checking to to let everyone know that im still around.

Have a wonderful day:)

jigglefree 05-09-2010 05:34 PM

Happy Mother's Day to all the CC mothers. I tried my TSPs on yesterday, they fit a little better but not where I want them yet. I was a little frustrated because it want them to fit by next weekend. I've been working really hard but it's cool. I will be very attentive to what I eat this week. No salt and no sugar and I will be doing plenty of water. I went out with one of my friends last night and I was so proud of myself. I ate before I left home and didn't eat anything while we were out but I had a couple of drinks. Not sure how many calories are in a shot of tequila and a glass of Chardonay. I had a good time but was out waaaaaaaay past my bedtime.

Hope everyone is having an on plan and victorious day!! I will be checking in tomorrow to see how things are and cheering everyone on for this week. I'm still a little tired from last night but I wanted to check in for my accountability.

Lori259 05-09-2010 08:49 PM

HAppy Mothers day~spending the day with my kids~HUGS TO ALL!~

mkyice 05-09-2010 09:50 PM

I hope everyone had a nice Mother's Day (even if you aren't a mom, I still hope you had a nice day). It is Monday, so I stepped on the scale. I was a little nervous about it because I feel like I am retaining water, my rings are snug this morning, but I am down 2.4lbs since the last time I weighed just over a week ago (I switched weigh day from Fri to Mon for the challenge). I am very pleased with that loss.
I hope everyone has a great week.


Edit: I just saw my ticker and I am just over halfway to my overall goal!!!!!!

shan84 05-09-2010 09:57 PM

Hope everyone is having a good end to the weekend. It's Monday here in SK. Still fighting pneamonia but back to work because I have no sick days left.

On a plus side, I was down 5lbs this past week thanks to being sick and all. Woohoo! A loss is a loss.

aluxa 05-10-2010 12:21 AM

KDM: :congrat: for the size 12! I'm no longer obese since 169 and I feel a lot better :)

Tink2lose: :congrat: for your exercise and OP week!

Beachlover: you have to think positive, shopping can also mean walk and that is exercise too LOL

SugarRox, Shylah, and mkyice: :congrat:

Shan: :congrat: for that 5 pounds and I hope you get well soon :hug:
