  • OMG. It's Friday already! Where on earth did this week go? I'm not complaining mind you!! Ok. Not much happened between the time I posted last night and now. I stepped on the scale I know I know. I need to throw it out or have DH hide it so I don't step on it. But hey, I'm not depressed over it. It says I've only lost 2 pounds now. Where'd the other pound go? Is it cuz I've started exercising more? Please tell me that's the reason (then I can quit exercising right? ) . J/k. I didn't have a single second to exercise yesterday. UGH!


    You all have a FANTASTIC day
  • Morning all!

    I LOVE FRIDAY!!!! For some reason I'm always in this FABULOUS mood on Fridays. Maybe it's because I get to see my BF. Who knows! Remember to say a lil prayer for Star if you're the praying type!
    I didn't work out last night but... I did manage to get all of my laundry done and got rid of those hairy legs! So.... not too bad.
    do you guys remember the *****y parent from a couple weeks ago who was trying to tell me how to do my job? Well, I got an apology email from her yesterday. My jaw hit the freaking floor. I feel..... better.
    Ok, I'm off! TTYL
  • Brenda, yes it is the exercise! Or at least I think it is. Hang in there! It will happen!

    Shimma: I am so happy you get to see your bf! Don't do anything I wouldn't do! I love Fridays also, but I really love Saturday!

    I woke up early this morning and did my WATP. I did the one mile starter. I did it last night and this AM. I love that dvd! I am going to alternate my Winsor Pilates and WATP. I should be looking hot by November!

    Everyone, have a wonderful Friday!

    Star: We love you, and we are praying for you.
  • Yes thank God it is Friday. The weeks do seem to be going by awfully fast lately.

    Nothing much exciting in my neck of the woods either today.

    I was just logging in my food for the day into Fitday and I found that for the last week or so I have been hovering around 25 grams per day. I am ok with this because I am still losing and I am almost at goal so I should be adding more at this point. I will keep and eye on it though to make sure it doesn't go any higher than that for a while.

    Have a great day everyone. I will check in more later.
  • Jane, you snuck up on me! As long as you are losing, I don't see anything wrong with 25 grams.

  • Good Morning Everyone!

    Brenda...Congrats on the 2lbs...at least the scale went down and not up for the week

    Rhonda: I know you are excited about getting to see the BF. Isnt' it so nice to get an applolgy. Especially from someone like that! Hope you and BF have a great weekend, and behave your self!

    Cat: Way to go on getting that excercise in last night and this morning! I need your motivation!

    Jane: I think you are doing great! Keep up the good work! You are very close to goal!!!

    Star: Good luck hun! I will be thinking of and praying from you all day! We love you!

    Well, not much happeneing here this morning. Worked last night, and slept in a little this morning. The good news is I only have to work from 11-5 today. They got someone to work the 2nd part of my shift tonight since I worked yesterday on my day off! So, today it's off to work, and then to the grocery store! Need to get the house stocked on low/no carb goodies for the weekend! Hope you all have a great weekend. It's supposed to be beautiful here, so I hope to get some yard work done! I'll check back in later ladies, and have a fabulous FRIDAY!!!!!!
  • What is this crap about behaving myself????? :P
  • Godd morning chickies!!!

    I am already at work, feeling good cause my clothes are really loose!! URGH I was running late this morning and the kids just kept following me around and asking me questions and bugging me and I feel bad cause i yelled at them and told them to leave me alone. I am gonna have some apologizing to do when I get home, poor DS's face look so hurt, it is sad. I am gonna put that on my list of goals to try to keep my temper when I am realy busy and they keep asking me questions and following me around (it makes me crazy) but I am gonna do it!! I guess my goals should be mind and body oriented just ot keep balanced!!! I don't know if it is just a 4 yr old thing or what but DANG that kid talks constantly!!!

    SP: hope your surgery is going well!!!

    Jane: you are doing excellent!!!

    Brenda: Throw that dang scale away girl!! Although 2 pounds is good!!!

    Cat you go girl on the exercise doesn't it make you feel GOOD!!

    Rhonda: it always feel good to get and apology....at least you knwo she felt bad about it. Have fun!!!

    OK ladies I am off to tackle the phones and sell some dang cable TV its FRIDAY!!! OOOOO and payday too!
  • Shimma: Who said anything about behaving? I said don't do anything I wouldn't do. There isn't much I won't do!
  • Good Morning!

    Brenda - It is working out!! Honestly! I do the same thing.. Once you start gaining a little bit of Muscle.. THe weight starts to come off again! I am doing the samething right now that I have added running into my routine. I havent seen the scale budge at all this week.. but it will! I know it will! Keep it going!

    I am so gald it is friday. Life is out of control around here, and the weekend will be busy too.. but At least I dont have to cart kids around everywhere! LOL!

    I will come back and check in later.. gotta take the kids to school and then head to the gym... more about that later...

    Hugs!

  • Morning Girls!!!

    Trazzie, you know it was funny that you said that because the Tooth Fairy seemed to have bypassed our house the first night, but found it the second night!

    Not much going on here. I finally go back to running this week. So nice!! I never thought I would miss running! So I have to remember to go log my miles now! Working today, and the day seems like it is going to drag on forever!!! Not much going on and no appointments, and, of course, I DO NOT want to work on the paperwork on my desk!

    Oh, well, I have open house at school tonight and my kids are going nuts about books. I swear why do schools have book fairs. It is so aggravating to have kids bombarding you for a week about what books they can get. Even if the JUST got new books!!!! Grrrr!

    The nice thing is DH worked late last night so he could go along also tonight. So we are having a little family outing at the school tonight. Then tomorrow my oldest DS has District Cubscout Pinewood Derby! What fun!

    Meanwhile...I have decided I'm stalled becuase my movement has stalled. Explanation: I've been getting lazy! I've only been working out 2-3 days versus the 6 I was working out....HELP, someone please motivate me!!!!

    Ok, off to try to find some work to do to avoid the paperwork on my desk!
  • Okay, this is my second attempt at posting for the morning, so this one's going to be a bit more brief. But, and trust me on this, the original post was pretty funny. You'd all have laughed at my account of yesterday's Squash Match To The Death. So no working out today, on account of PAIN. Can't wait to go home tomorrow, if nothing else than because it's been raining in Boston for 3 days straight and its not in Chicago.

    Brenda- Deffiately the working out. But think of how much prettier a pound of muscles is than a pound of fat.

    Shimma- You sound very productive. Good for you. I did my laundry on Wednesday for the first time all month, and I now think clean clothes are just about the best thing ever.

    Catgirl- Props on the waking up early to exercise!

    Jane- It's great that you're eating more carbs and still losing. That bodes well for transitioning into Lifetime Maintenace.

    Mrs. H- Glad you're having a lighter day at work.

    TG- Props on the looser clothes!

    Karen- Hopefully your weekend will be a little bit more relaxing than your weeks been. Sounds crazy.

    Lori- At least your kids are going nuts for book, and not shoes or video games or something. I'd take it as a positive. Good luck with the running.

    HAPPY FRIDAY

  • Hiya everyone!

    It is raining here in San Antonio, I won't have to water the backyard today!

    My daughter (9) and I are having a special Mother Daughter day today, we are going fabric shopping and then making bread. She is in the shower now so I have a little time to be here.

    Yesterday I put on a few eggs to boil and cooked then sat down to eat. I ended up doing a few things before going to my Naturpath appointment when....BLAM, POP!! I said "What was that?" I went into the kitchen and the eggs exploded! I feel like a real dufus!

    I hope and pray that Star is doing well today, we're thinking about ya Star!

    Have a great day and weekend everyone!!
  • Journeygirl, I have exploded eggs before too! This is how much of a dufus I was: I wanted hard boiled eggs, and put them in a container of water and nuked them! Can anyone say dumb a$$?
  • Well, I don't know if it is the workout that I did this morning, but my appetite is back with a vengance! I have been freakin starving all day! I am acutally glad about that! I was starting to worry that I was developing an eating disorder. I just ate rotisserie chicken, my stomach is still grumbling! I can't wait unitl dinner! I could a !
