good morning! it is BEAUTIFUL out there this morning. 60 degrees at 6 am, bright sun, blue sky, everything is green now, lilacs are blooming..this is a day to remember in the dead of winter.
I have off today, and have a list..work out, first! cut grass, wash bike, a little grocery shopping, tan, still havent made that appt. for my car, . we'll see what I accomplish.
Riding home from work last ngiht, I didn't need chaps or anything around my neck, and light gloves. It felt sooo good.
hey yall, sorry I haven't been around, SUPER busy. getting caught up on all the stuff I didn't do while laid up with my ankle, and my daughters last day of school is today and Christain gets his stitched out this afternoon
Welcome Back Tammy, You're and honest woman now...LOL
Hi Mandy, I'm glad you're back in action! congrats to your daughter on last day of school, does she go to private school? best wishes to your cute, cute little boy on getting stitches out.
I did Level 3 of the Shred just now, sweat flying off my nose on the last part of floor strength; and then a long set of Cathe abs.
I am moving my ticker DOWN ONE POUND. A tiny victory but i think it will give me incentive to stop the bites, licks and nibbles at work!

YAY Holly!!! I worked at Morrison's several years ago, I opened in the morning then worked in the pie room. So I cooked fried chicken, mashed potatoes, mac and cheese, some veggies corn bread ect then off to make cakes, pies, ect. I ate a the largest fried chicken breast, mashed potatoes, mac and cheese, Mexican corn bread and Boston cream for dessert(chocolate cake, Bavarian cream in the middle, whipped cream for icing and drizzled with chocolate syrup) everyday for lunch and I was also the smallest I have ever been. Probably because I only ate that once a day and worked 11 and 12 hours a day, some days open to close...lol I miss being that skinny, but not working like that.
Hey Mandy, congrats on your daughter's last day of school..... and your son's stitches. Do you ever think that when you ate what you want and did not worry about it...... that is when you weighed the least? That is how it worked for me. When I got on the "diet" band wagon that is when it skyrocketed! Maybe just in my head.
Holly, congrats on the pound! Woo Hoo! I keep gaining and losing the same weight since before my trip, but at least it is not a huge gain!
CC- I hate you are so busy--- but the vacation time is not too far away!
Today is Wayne's mother's bday so we are on our way to eat at a Japanese Steak House.... no weight loss today
I got the wedding pic! I am not sure how to get them on here..... so, my myspace name is tammy frazier........ I will add you as a friend-- or you can wait forever until I figure out how to get it on here. If you access my myspace, it shows my "before" pic are and the wedding pictures are the "after" it is a transformation if I must say so myself... except you can see my muffin top Wayne got a medium shirt for me and he wanted to be married in them, I had intended on the medium being my target size-- oh well, gives me something to work for.
Tammy - I joined MySpace just so I could see your wedding pics they are wonderful, and you look sooo good! And from your before pics...you HAVE done a transformation!!!
good morning ladies! a little cooler here this morning, around 40.
Oh, I hope you fully enjoy your remaining days before returning to work, Tammy! (and its so nice that I have a picture of you in my mind now, that I'm 'talking' to )
An special shout out to those who Mandy knows, those in the military. Memorial Day is for us to honor those who gave their lives so that we are living in the (in my opinion) greatest country in the world and we have so many freedoms.
I do work today and tomorrow, but this afternoon we are getting together wtih another biking couple at their house, for steak on the grill and liquid refreshments Hopefully we will ride there (about 40 minutes away) but not sure of the weather .
First off WOW Tammy that is an awesome transformation, I to just joined MySpace to see your pics- so when will wedding pics be posted???Way to go
Holly you are doing great and you even got to move your ticker- cudos to you to
Mandy glad to hear that you are getting back up and around, ankle must be feeling better
Well got through opening the new store, now we will have Grand Opening next Friday and Saturday. Races got cancelled last night which was good because my dad is in town for my nieces graduation so it was nice to hang out with him and visit. Not cancelled yet for today but dad wants to go watch so I hope they don't get cancelled tonight.
Well nice to see everyone is staying on track, I again will shoot for starting back up OP this week I hope. I did buy the Wii Active this morning but haven't opened the box yet will do that after lunch.
Hope everyone is having a Great Memorial Weekend
Oh ya almost forget we took family pictures yesterday late morning while everyone was home for grad party- I also asked photographer if she would take some of us with our bikes, she said yes so we had my MIL go get her trike and we went home and got our bikes, I just hope they all turn out we haven't had family pics for like 15 years of my family and it has been like 7 years since my immediate family pics. Anyways can't wait to see them done

Hey ladies, Thanks so much for the comments. I still have another 20 pounds to go. I am hoping to get back on track when I go back to work
Mandy, tell your husband and every friend of his you see that I said thanks for their service. We are fortunate to have men like your husband and my son serving (although my son is not full time-- he is going full time).
Speaking of my son..... he laid his bike over last night. He drives it back and forth to work b/c he is fixing the motor in his truck (it was a human induced blow up of the motor--- CC I really think he should be on the track with your DH and son). But, anyway he gets off late and he was coming home and a "dog" ran out in front of him. What I really think happened is he lost control b/c the pavement was wet..... and his back tire is not what it should be. He had a full face helmet on, which is good b/c it would have grated his face. He has some deep cuts and "chunks" gone, we thought his ankle was broken but it is not..... It could have been much worse than it was. I am so thankful that it was not! I feel a little guilty b/c I pray for the boys everynight before I go to sleep b/c they need all the help they can get (they are careless boys) and I did not last night. I am hoping that this "little" spill gives him a bigger respect for the bike. Maybe now he will put a new tire on it as well as the brakes it needs. I am so thankful it was not worse! I got a blessing BIG time--- and he knows how bad it could have been. Btw, the bike got a few scrapes too. It is a 2003 HD anniversary sportster and it now needs a clutch handle and a cover on the motor from what I seen.
I am a "big" girl and it is hard to feel feminine sometimes when you are built like an Amazon...... so I love pretty nails..... well, I had to clip them b/c they are just hard to deal with. I hate that I had to clip them, but oh well.
If you cannot see all the pic on myspace, I do have a facebook account. I don't think you have to join for it.... it is under my new and old name (new- frazier.... old-- lance).
Mandy, I am glad your ankle is better.
CC- glad your store is finally open-- maybe you can breathe a little easier. Way to go on getting the MIL on the bike! Can't wait to see the pic.
I still cannot get the DVD to format correctly. I am hoping my boss' wife can help Tuesday.
Holly, glad you are liking your summer job and way to go on moving the ticker!
I think I am fixing to hit the library. It is free and I like to read.
good morning and a thankful thoughts to the Memorial Day heroes.
Tammy, OMG so sorry to hear of your son's fall! Hope he heals up quickly and isn't hurting too much.
I meant also to comment how pretty your fingernails were in your wedding pics, and I was going to be rude enough to ask if they were real I have never ever been able to have nice nails, and was going to ask for advice, that if they were artificial, how they work out, etc. I don't think you need ever ever to not feel feminine, you are so pretty, you've got that gorgeous long blonde hair, you've got curves, you're a hot chick on a bike!!
CChick, congrats on the new store! and that is great about fam pics on bikes, that rocks!
we are meeting with friends in Montpelier at 10:30 to ride, so far it's me and husband, another couple whose wife rides behind husband, another couple who both ride their own, and a woman who rides her own. I love how our posse has a high percentage of lady riders
it is beautiful and sunny but still cool here, a little over 40 . Not supposed to get much over 62 or so today but the sun is beautiful.
have to do a workout, didn't yesterday, so need to now so I have a clear(er) conscience!
If you access my myspace, it shows my "before" pic are and the wedding pictures are the "after" it is a transformation if I must say so myself... except you can see my muffin top
