Hey what do you know - it worked. Thanks Taz.
Well girls I went to WW and I stayed the same so I am not too disappointed as I knew I had a bad weekend.
I am determined to be in control this week as I feel so much better when I am.
I went for a 2 mile walk this morning and I am going for another now with a friend so I will call tomorrow morning and I hope to see more posts by then.
Bye for now
Anne
Thanks for the invite Mooz. I got a thread over in buddy up that keep me pretty busy but I will take you up on your invite to drop in from time to time to see how well you all are doing.
I see you got it figured out, I love the gifs too.
YGG!!! On the 2 miles and I hope you get to go later too. I love to walk and do it often. I do Tae bo sometimes too. I just love to keep my body moving and stay OP and as long as I'm losing all is well in my world. )
Well, I guess I'm back on the wagon. I did my 30 minute Crunch Boot Camp tape today. Oh my goodness, I had that feeling that my muscles had turned to mush again. Then I took a spur of the moment 20 minute walk with the kids tonight to try to wear them out a bit. So I am REMOTIVATED to keep it going.
Good morning Patty, Jen, Semo, Lauri, Barb and Taz.
I am just up and I thought I would call in for a little inspiration before I start my day
I am about to go get my breakfast now and then go for a two mile walk. I am in control.

Just popped in to say hey!!! Welcome Taz!
I have been working my *a* off so I have been too exhausted to get on here when I get home. On the computer typing all day, don't want to look at it at night LOL!!!!!
I think I told you all that my office is getting a new computer system so we (meaning me and one other co-worker) are entering the patient demographics and insurance info. My fingers are getting way skinnier!~
Gotta run!! You all have a good day!!
Lauri
Good Morning Ladies, and happy Wednesday (hump day)
Mooz, what cool graphics. I have so totally fallen off the wagon! I told my hubby this morning that as soon as I get home I'm exercising and he will just have to wait on the tv if I'm not done by the time he gets home. I had every intention of doing some exercise this am but overslept (something that I rarely do).
Lauri, there wasn't any way to down load your info into the new system? I don't know who these people are that come up with the "new plans" but they never seem to be the people that end up doing all the work.
Patty, has your medicine helped? I'm not much of a pill taker but I've been very good taking all my vitamins lately and can tell the difference in the way I feel.
Jen, how are things with you? I need to follow your lead on getting back on track. I need some boodie kicking!
Good Afternoon Ladies
It's been a busy week. Sunday I ate way to much, & I just can't seem to get control. Today I had brought my WW meal & someone in the office had a lunch meeting, we'll of course there was some left over & I went over & got a plate. It was beef & chicken fajitas, but of course I had to have the chips, hot sauce, avacado dip, & Cobbler.... Now i'm stuffed. Why do I do this?
Semo - the meds are helping some. I wish they had side effects of not eating
Anne - Neat graphics.
Lauri - I can relate to the work. Sometimes I feel like i'm the only one here who does work
Jen - Glad your back. It's so easy to fall off the wagon, & yet so hard to get back on.
We'll I need to run, hope everyone is having a great day.
I plan to walk 3 miles tonight on the treadmill. I have got to get back on point....
Well, so far so good today. I did a 30 minute combo of aerobics and toning. I find myself not eating enough calories again. I swear. I wish I could just find a happy medium. It's like all or nothing with me. Either I'm starving and compulsively eating everything, or I don't eat anything. I get to where I am not really hungry and am afraid to make myself eat, cuz once I get that food in my mouth, I lose control again. I have been at 1,000 calories the past two days, and am feeling it. I was SO tired today, I could hardly move. I am shooting for 1,400 to 1,500 today. Hopefully I won't lose it and go way over.
Anne: I'll bet line dancing is quite a workout, and probably more fun than doing a video tape in the living room. Have fun!!
SEMO & 1Day: Damn that wagon! Not only do I keep falling off, it comes back to run me over a few times!! All we can do is hang on for dear life!!
Lauri: I think we all know how you feel. After a hectic day, all ya want to do is sit still and let your mind turn to mush. Don't forget about us though. Come back in and tell us how it's going.
Hello to you Barb, wherever you are!!
And a hello to you too Taz!
Guess that's about it for now. Talk at ya later,
Jen
Good morning girls.
Just a quick call again. It's a beautiful morning here today.
We had a little Easter party at the linedancing last night and I had a few little nibbles but I hope I danced them off!
Isn't it so easy to fall off the wagon but I think the secret is to just get right back on it and keep going and it is a struggle but we do want to get fitter and healthier and look so good and that is why we are here.
Are any of you near your own personal target weight and I mean a realistic weight not a model's weight?
Do you see the way Taz puts her starting weight, her weight now and her target weight at the bottom of her posts - do any of you think that would help to motivate us? Maybe it is worth a try.
What do you all think?
One thing I do know is that I seem to be able to keep ic control much better since I started 'talkin' to you gals so thanks for that.
Will call later.
Anne

good morning!! It is beautiful here this morning! And I saw a robin yesterday!! Could spring be here????
Thanks for the encouragement re: work. I swear, I have never known people could be so lazy!!!
The new computer program we are getting is windows based
(praise the lord) we are replacing and old dinosaur DOS program so we can't just download. (However, I am not complaining about the OT I'm getting LOL)
I may start going for a walk and lunch, since I am too pooped to exercise when I get home. I am managing to maintain my weight though. Guess I am too tired to eat even! ROFL!!!
I need to go get ready for work, so I will see you lovely ladies in the AM!!!
bye all!!!

Here are my vital statistics! ;-)
Top of the Morning to ya! I'm pretty full of myself this morning. I did one hour on the orbitreck and about 20 minutes of yoga last night. Tonight will be weights, this should be good, lol since I know nothing about doing it, but there are weights laying around somewhere in the boys rooms I'm sure.
Okay here are my stats, 195/160/145. Going to have to get off my bootie, could have been at goal way before now if I had stayed on program. Ugh. I did sign up for a challenge on www.self.com it started a while back but thought that I would give it a try. That's where doing the weights are coming from.
Work is getting busy, so I'll have less fun time on the computer, but like you Lauri, I can use the overtime money.
Later.
Hi again girls. Yes I think spring is in the air and that means summer is just around the corner and that means warm weather and no hiding our figures under coats.!! So we all know what we have to do don't we?
