Just wanted to pop by and say Congratulations to the red team that is quite the loss you team posted and Igetfitandstrongforme.....14.8lbs in a week...WOW were you on campus with the contestentants???? LOL, that's a huge loss...WTG

Ditto on what Bigmid said, and I especially want to single out MonteCristo for the job she has been doing for the Red and Blue team.

Thank you,

NSV for today- I saw TimTams (Aussie cookies) in the grocery and didn't buy them. I haven't ever seen these in America before. This was exceptionally hard to resist because I wasn't just fighting my sweet tooth, but the nostalgia associated with them. But well, I gained 10 pounds in Australia, do I really want to revisit THAT part?

Hey ladies just checking in mid-week. Hope everyone has a wonderful Thanksgiving with their families. Here in SK it will pass by just like any other day, working of course. Haha. Probably a good thing for my diet to not go off plan with all the good food im missing. I'm having TOM right now worse than I have in about a year, so not sure what it is going to do to my weight for this week. If anything, its dragging my body down for sure. Though I did still make it to the gym yesterday of which I am proud to have done.

Well I lost the weight over a month period, on the retreat there were no scales, so I just posted my previous weight until I could weight-in and we fasted on only water for one week, so that helped I am sure. I am very happy to have lost the weight, now if I can get rid of the flu I caught this weekend I would be very happy.

Well I've gotta say i was just popping in to ask whatever happened to the results thread. I kind of lost steam in this whole challenge. I have not been losing, nothing exciting to tell so i just haven't come here. I still post my wieght, but that's about it.

I did notice there are results posted in this thread. Thanks Monte Cristo. I post on so many different threads, that i have neglected this one. I am committing to at least a weekly drop in. Wish i had some good weight loss news to report, but man, ... it's just not happening. I vow to myself that if i don't lose something in Nov. and Dec. I am joining a gym come Jan.

Does anyone subscribe to Jillian's podcasts? I've been trying to find them, but having no luck. I've read several websites that say to search for KFI on iTunes, but I am still not finding JIllian. If anyone can tell me how to get them I would really appreciate it.

ETA - Nevermind....just found out that she quit doing them.....I guess I'll have to get the old ones.

well last night i stood in lines (inside and outside of the stores) and shopped from 1030pm-715am....then came home and unloaded everything (including the 2 trampoline boxes) when i got home before going to pick up the kids from a friend's house...i am still tired. i slept off and on from 1030am-415pm....trying to wake up with some diet dr pepper i got last night. about to eat (have only had water, 2 butter biscuits and OJ from mcd's)....so i have a headache. gonna have some left over ham and mashed taters. then soon it'll be bedtime again. but i saved a bunch of money so i'm happy i got almost everything i wanted for the kids' christmas. only i have left to buy is DD's guitar (walmart was sold out by the time i got there) and DS's bike and helmet. then i'll be done then will work on getting the wii and ds games for DD, me and hubby plus his xbox 360. but will get his stuff closer to Jan.
have the kids coloring pages i printed from crayola.com with the new crayons i got for free from toys r us lol
i hope to get more good sleep tonight and that the kids sleep in tomorrow lol

does all that standing in lines and trying to stay warm and fighting crowds count towards my workouts? lol i dont wanna stand up or walk for a while. i'm perfectly happy sitting right now. i'll try to start workouts on monday - hopefully by then my feet wont hurt so bad.
the kids are ready to put up our christmas decorations...so might try to unbury them this weekend and decorate. and have to clean house....but maybe tomorrow when i have the energy still have laundry to put away before i start on more.

I hope everyone has been having a fun (and healthy!) holiday.

I've been watching the biggest loser season 6 while working out this week, and I must say that I've never been so disgusted with a group of people then I am with that Blue Team triumvate. If it was possible I'd jump straight through the sceen and thrash the whole lot of them. I don't care how tought Brady thinks he is, as mad as that group makes me I think I could take him out. It seems silly to get worked up about a tv show from a year ago, but they are SO VILE! ICK!

Antonia: I think everyone was upset with the game play from season 6. I hope you had a great Thanksgiving my friend.

that's awesome i look forward to being able to sign up officially for the next challenge lol i was down to the 147s this morning so hoping to get back into a workout routine this week....cuz in just a few short weeks, my parents will be arriving in town to stay with us (my daddy for 2 weeks and my mom for 1 week)...so not sure how good the eating adn workouts will be then...lol but i'm gonna try to get a head start now. i only have till end of Jan/begin Feb to get the belly flab toned up and gone. LOL i'm gonna try at least

Looking forward to signing up for the next challenge. Just dropping by this morning to post my loss for the week. I'm down 3 more lbs. Not as much as usual, but I had TOM this week worse than usual, so I'm happy with the 3lbs. I'll totally take it!

Hope everyone has a great start to Week 12!
