Courtnie- Why don't you set yourself a new goal to lose by Christmas? You'll look great for that party maybe even shock a few people. Most people will notice 50 #.

Shari- My goal is 10% by the end of this year. I have 8.6 # left. Sorry your car is broke.

Enygirl- Congraulations on your loss! I bet your excited to see what the scales say tomorrow.

Things at the cancer dr. didn't go well for my grandfather. :-( It was even worse than what his primary dr. could find out. We're going up to see him again this weekend. He's probably not going to live to see another birthday or Christmas. So right now we're just trying to just spend as much time as we can with him. There's a big chance if he agrees to chemo, he might not make it thur the first phase of treatment. Dh has to return the heart rate monitor because it doesn't work. That's okay thought I'm pretty sure we'll get another one.

Well, it's getting late so I better scat for now. I have a massage first thing in the a.m.

hsmom - I am so sorry to hear about your grandfather. You and yours are in my prayers.

enygirl - I would love to be busy at work!! it'd make the time go by so much faster. I'm sure your daughter will forgive you. That's the great thing about kids...they're so easy to forgive and forget.

shari - one more week until you move?? eek!!! You must be so excited and nervous. I hope you find it easy to stay on plan since you've been doing so good. Good luck!!!

courtnie - you've lost 50 pounds. of course you're gonna look fantastic. Remember confidence is key. Good luck on ur web design.

Jen - i wish I could run. I probably can, but I am so scared to try. How'd your weigh-in go??

Aimee - "my neighbour, her sister, the cops, paramedics, fire men, and a cop with a police dog and a helicopter" hmmm??? I'm intrigued.....what could that have possibly been about? lol have u been watching the hills?? its been pretty catfightish lately. I love it!!!

sorry I haven't been around. I've been meaning to post but really there has been nothing new. I slipped off of exercising for a week, but now I'm back. And I'm trying to get my grip on at least trying to eat right. Especially since my bad self-image and self-conciousness has brought problems for me and my bf. Sorry for being blunt, but being overweight has really warped my sex drive. I am just so self-concious and I feel so unsexy, that my libido has pretty much disappeared. So problems arose between me and my bf. But I'm workign on things, and he's working on things. I know it'll get better once I start losing weight and feeling better about myself. Crap, if i knew it would make things so difficult, I would've lost this weight a looong time ago!!

Have a great weekend gals!!!

Eny ~ How was the WI? Don't worry, your babygirl has probably already forgot that you were a little late.

HS ~ for you and yours.

Ro ~ I hope you and DBF get things right again. It's going to be okay. *kiss*

So TOM is finally over and I am down 2.2 lbs this week. Tomorrow I'm getting the car fixed! YAYYYY! And right after he fixes it, I'm rushing to a WW meeting and signing up again. 7 days and counting!

Ro- Aren't we always our worst critic? Think about the things you like about yourself. It's good to hear you and bf are working things out. Guys just don't understand someone not wanting s*x.

Shari- Yeah, you'll have your wheels back. Have fun at WW today.

Well, I've got to get in bed.

HS-Sending my love your way!

Shari- Great job on the loss! How was WW?

Ro- Sometimes I have the same problem too! Because I'm not able to see how my body is remotely sexy.. I just cannot understand how my bf can. And if you don't feel sexy it's difficult to do sexy things..
Hang in there! p.s. I'm a big "The Hills" fan too! Can you even believe Audrina left with Jason Bobby last week! Jeez!

Courtnie- You've lost so much weight already! Be proud! Nothing is more attractive than confidence. Sounds like you are going all out for this party! What exactly is 'arm waxing', as in the top of your arms? or your underarms?

Aimee? You around?

Not too much for me. Weighed in Thursday. No change.Looking on the positive side that also means "No gain", I was really hoping for a loss though. But I'm feeling better.Thinking about food in smarter ways. Next week there will be a loss. The weather got so horrible here I had to move the exercise into the gym. Yuck! At one point I caught my reflection in one of the giant mirrors and discovered where else those 10 "Moved to a desk job" pounds were distributed...And it was back to the stair machine for me.
Also, much hotter gym clothes are in order. It's one thing to look frumpy when you're exercising out of sight...It's totally different when you're surrounded by hot mamas at the gym.

The weigh in went great! I KISSED THE #190'S GOODBYE! the official weigh in was 188.7! WOO HOO! Only 9.7 until my New Yeas Goal!

I start training for the 5K walk race today... it snowed about 2 inches last night. (brrrr) It'll be well worth it though. Imagine how much weight I'm going to lose training in this weather! Plus I've never challenged myself to something like this. personal accomplishment ROCK!

Hey gals! It's been pretty much insane around here! My mom got here on Friday morning at 5am, and then I had to work the entire day, I was sooooo tired! And then on Saturday we woke up to SNOW on the ground! Ugh! We live on a mountain so it was pretty nasty, Sunday we were snowed in until late afternoon. And today? It's been raining and raining and there is none left THANK GOODNESS!!!!

Congrats everyone on your losses!! Wow, this is a lean mean losing weight machine of a group!

Rosario - I hear you on the sex thing, I've had 1 good thing happen.. and this is TMI btw... I get these headaches and thats the one thing that takes it away, and since they were REALLY frequent for a while.. bf's happy-ish! I hope things get better for yah! I have been trying to watch The Hills and keep missing it on the night its on, good thing MTV does a ton of reruns!

Jen - I think I am in your boat, no gain no loss.. however I haven't checked the damage from my weekend, I'm not gonna lie, I'm scared! What day is The Hills on for you? For me it's on tonight, but I gotta miss it So I'll take a recap!

hsmom - sorry to hear about your grandfather

I am off to make me some breakfast! I will talk to you gals later!

-Aimee

OKay, this week is back to counting and tracking and posting my blog. Only 5 days until the party but I should be able to at least lose some water weight, lol.

We launch the site and I love it, it turned out sooo cute!

Anyway this is just a quick hello, I will be back!

hey everyone. 4 days left....hold my hand! Car still isn't fixed....i hate men right now! Didn't make it to WW but I called and the lady assured me that they will have another Free Reg offer this month so I can rejoin by the end of the year. Which is okay since I'm gonna be occupied with getting adjusted to SA and all.

I've decided that as soon as I get to Texas, I'm going to find a dance class. Dance class has been the only class that I have went to even though I was always the biggest, most ackward, and usually was so self concious i almost cried. But I love dance so much even though I have two left feet. I want to get better. So I'm going to bite the bullet and do it. I'm going to accomplish something I want FOR ONCE dammit!

JasonsLea you know what you need to do... I know things are absolutely crazy.. but YOU ARE WORTH IT ABOVE ALL OBSTACLES AND EXCUSES!!! Ok I'm done now... I think a dance class would be AWESOME! And remember that you become better, more graceful, better balanced and less selfconscious the more you do it.

I'm still feeling pretty blah and grumpy - due to the new exercise and TOM visiting soon. Last night I was a bottomless pit! it was crazy! I usually do a really good job not caving to late night cravings - but last night was an exception. Oh well only #.2 up this morning.. and I know I'm bloated due to TOM. Work has me completely stressed out and I ended up working until 2 am this morning - and was back at it at 7:30! I NEED A VACATION!!!!

Eny ~ You're a trooper!

Hey Gals - I'm SO exhausted these days I haven't had energy to get on here. Basically I sleep, work and lay down on the couch.. it's so odd. But I'll talk to you guys soon, I gotta get some sleep.

Eny - sorry to hear work is so stressful.

Shari - I think dance class is a great idea

-Aimee

Aimee ~ Get some rest, sweetie.

Tomorrow is the day! Today is my last day at work. WHOOHOOO!

Wow, it's been quiet on here! Sorry I've been MIA. My grandfather is taking pills b/c the drs decided he wouldn't make it thur with the iv one. They do believe now that his pancretis is deformed from birth and may not be infected! They are going to run more test. If its only in his liver they might do surgery.

I've been going to the dr. due to severe abdominal. The dr's ran several test and is talking about sending be to a specialist. I have to go back on the 11th for a blood work up. It showed that I've hypothyroidism. Which confuses the dr even more since I'm able to lose weight and I don't sleep that much. (5-7 hours a night) Hmmm! She's also got me on a meds for stomach ulcers she thinks I maybe stressed a little.

Since this is no fail fall and fall's about over lets step it up some. Oh, last week I was aiming for a 3# loss. I got close 2.6# gone.

How did everyone's weigh in go?

Enygirl- How's training going? I was almost tempted to do the Turkey Trot that was around Thanksgiving, but I was hurting somewhat and didn't know how I would do. I wished I had because now I don't know how I would of done. Even if I can in last as least I could of tried. Does that earn me duh award or what?

Courtnie- Come on girl! How's counting and tracking going? Don't let this time of the year get to you!

JasonsLea- I bet you got alot of exercise in while moving. How did it go? Did you start WW? Have you found a dance class, yet? I should of used your moto to get my butt to at least try the Turkey Trot last month.

Jen, Aimee & Ro- How are ya'll doing? Let's not fizzle out this close to the end of fall.
