Well, I've had a couple of incidents lately ... one was that fluttery "can I get out of here quick enough" at a church supper the other night ... and I do see them as directly correlating with my haphazard diet and exercise scheme lately. I need to get all aspects of my life running healthily and diet and exercise is a relatively simple way to start.

Hello All..
Same here!.. This weekend I really did terribly. I had pizza one night, and mexican the next.. Luckily I'm only one pound up, but still.. I could have been losing!!... My commitment to myself this week, is to stay on plan, and lose at least that pound I gained this week...
Take care ladies...we CAN do this.

I have been "off the wagon" for a few weeks now. I haven't been going to the Y to workout or haven't even done my WATP DVD either and been eating bad.

I feel like such a failure.

Aw... Sassy, don't feel like a failure.. One or two bad days doesn't mean your path to losing weight is gone forever. You just have to pick yourself up and try again...
We're here for you!!
How is everyone else today??!

Hi guys

I am feeling so blah today, I just want to curl up on my bed/couch and sleep the whole damn day away.. Maybe because it was thanksgiving here in Canada and I really don't care for the holidays. I am trying to motivate myself into going to the gym today even though I really don't want to!

Wish me luck!

It seems that we are all a little down, lets hope it just the season change and things will look better soon.

Hi Ladies,

We are not failures... so please remember that. Is there a day when you really throw your hands up and say I don't care ??? (you might think it for a few seconds but you really don't feel that way).... Nope, I know there's not. We keep trying and that in itself is NOT failure.

Happy Wednesday.... how did everyone do yesterday? Wait forget that..... Whats everyone's plan for today? How about we make a plan just for today and really try to stick with it... and then we'll work on tomorrow. Deal?

Good afternoon everyone!
Sorry for being absent, had a minor computer problem and absolutely no concentration.

Not much new with me here. Got my dryer fixed, all it needed was a $10 part. Leenie, we did look at the new ones, boy those front loaders sure are expensive!! Needless to say we will stick with spending $10!!!! We took the long weekend to set up newer bunk beds from my sister for B and C. Its a huge unit with the shelves and desk. Now the girls have no room in their room as they had european style bunk beds that are narrower than typical.

I have to get back onto the treadmill. I found when I was walking regularly my blood pressure was going down, but since I haven't been on it for over a week its going back up.

Anyway I should go, I have to do a quick trip to town as my car insurance is due today plus I need apples for school lunches tomorrow.

I just wanted to say Hi to all as its been forever.

Take care and have a wonderful day,
K

Hey Girls!
Thanks Tilly. I have decided to not give up! It wasn't only a couple days, it was more like a couple weeks, but I am not giving up regardless! I do appreciate your kind words and support! And Leenie is right, we are NOT failures! So I am "picking myself back up" and dusting myself off and climbing back on board!

Good Morning,

Sassy girl, you GO !!!!! Persistance wins the race, not perfection

Buddly, $10 is a bargin... glad thats all it was whoot! I'm glad your back with us.

Nickle, Tilly, Susan... how are you girls feeling today?

Liz, Cathy you all okay... has the day taken over LOL

I went for an ultrasound (because I was getting my period every two weeks months back) yesterday and the technician must have pushed to hard b/c when I got off the table my back was sore, I mean really sore... I thought it was my arthritis kicking in b/c it was a rainy day.... by the time I got back to work I couldn't get out of the car, my lower back was thrown out and hurt so much I couldn't walk up the pathway to get into work.. so I went home. ..... So I am home today and can't do much lol.

How are you all today?
