New Chat:December 26 and 27

  • Good Morning!!!
    Ok..stayed pretty well away from sweets and junk..This medication I am on completely turns U off of food..Too weird--esp carbs which is my total weakness..Christmas was nice..MIL refused to come to my mom's for dinner because she was too nervous with all the noice after Christmas Eve dinner..Oh welll--I felt bad that she chose to spend Christmas by herself but I come from a big, crazy loud cajun family!!!Oh well...

    K is the same about presents--she still has some from her birthday--she doesnt like the over whelm of paper flying and grabbing for the next one..She opens one at a time and that is it..We will open the rest later in the year..Santa did not come to our house--she insisted it be a "deer" and the "Snowman"--Not to keene on the Santa thing..

    Off to work--all the bums are asleep in my house!!!
    Have a great day all!!!
    RR
    ON THE BANDWAGON TODAY EVERYONE!!!!!
  • OK I'm all done being bad right?? Lets hope so. I've eaten so much over the holidays...I don't even wanna talk about it. I'm getting back to eating right and I'm going to start doing the elliptical again. Not waititng for the first of the year. X-mas is over and I need to start over NOW!!

    RR, You are a better person than I. I wouldn't feel bad at all for MIL. You can't feel bad for a choice someone else made. She never feels bad about making you feel like a nothing of a person...but that's just me...I tend to hold onto things.

    OK everyone!! Out of hiding!!

    OK I'm off for more ! Make it a great day everyone!
  • Hi everyone! Hope you had a wonderful Christmas! I made a feast for the family Christmas Eve! Believe it or not I managed to lose another 3.5lbs! Go me. Haven't changed my tiker yet but I will! I'm finally out of the 170's, whoo hooo!

    How is everyone doing? I'm joining a challenge on the biggest loser forum so hopefully I'll stay motivated! I'd like to get to 150 by my annv March 23rd! I think I can, I think I can! lol

  • Hi All!

    Yup, back on the wagon today! Right now I'm just dying for coffee, but I left my coffee pot in mom's kitchen yesterday am and she's not up yet. She will be soon though, so i go in and make some!

    I'm feeling full of motivation right now...let's see if I can make it work with 2 kids in tow!

    Have a great day all!
  • You guys are all crazy nuts.

    There's too much junk/leftovers in this house for me to even consider even LOOKING FOR the bandwagon, let alone think about getting back on it. I've set a tentative date of January 1st of getting serious again. By then, the holidays are done and the leftovers should be mostly cleaned out. The junk I can take to work and get rid of it (as much as my DW will let me take away, that is)....

    Sis and BIL left today and Mum & Dad will be off tomorrow after DW and I head back to work. DW is *so* looking forward to being back at the store to deal with the after-christmas cranky shoppers. At least things are relatively quiet where I'm working....

    Anyhoo, my thoughts are with all of you. Jan 1st, I'll be resetting my tickers and back figuring out "the master plan". :P

    Until then, it's a free for all.

  • Hello all. I agree with everyone! Back on the wagon. I have one more Christmas to go, and it is going to be at Cracker Barrel. Yesterday I had almost 500 calories for lunch.

    Well off to worry about more shopping.

    Lisa
  • Good Morning!! Way too cold to be out of bed!!! Hate to go to work while all is asleep the rest of the day!!!
    Heloooooo all!! Don't make too many wild plans for the New Years!! I guess we will have to make a resolution thread!!!
    RR
  • Uh, RR, I'd love to know what "way too cold..." is down there?!

    OK, so I wasn't necessarily "back on the wagon" yesterday. Too much "stuff" in the house! I guess I will take this week to purge the stuff and make a plan for after New Year's.
  • lol hey everyone

    i am alive and functioning LOL making potato soup with leftover ham
  • Hey everyone!! Good morning!! (Or evening)
    I haven't posted much on here, never on the 30 somethings, but I NEED TO LOSE 30 pounds..... I have issues!! hahaha I work nights, (12 hours) and then have some days off, so I have problems with following a routine. I have tried all kinds of diets in the past, and lost weight. I am the heaviest weight I have ever been right now, except when I was pregnant with my little girl which is now seven. I am married, ten years in April, and he is not supportive of me losing weight much because I am always trying and quiting..... NEED WILLPOWER>>!! I think I got it this time... I hate my body and the older I get I really hate being over weight. Even though its only 30 pounds and I really hide my weight good, (its all over thing>) Which is good, but lots of people are like you don't need to lose weight, "I would be happy to be your size". But clothes cover up the rolls on the belly, you know> I used to have a flat tummy, back in the day. Bottom line is I am not happy with my body, and am unsure of how to start out the new year. I have seriously been thinking of joining ww online, because of my schedule. Just new a weight loss buddy maybe, or advice about ww. online. I Haven't ever done weight watchers? but have some of the old books. Holler back to this georgia girl ya hear!! later everyone have a good and safe NEW YEARS!!!
  • Hi Sugar!! Does DH need to lose any weight? Maybe you can have a heart to heart and ask him to do it with you? I know it's hard when you don't have a set schedule.
  • Can I join??
    Hi all!!

    I've lurked 3FC for a couple years now, was on and off WW for 3 years, and now have a 5 month old little boy. The pg weight is gone, but planning a trip in 3 mos and would LOVE, LOVE, LOVE to lose the extra poundage before the bathing suit goes on Anyway, I was hoping to join your group of 30-somethings.

    Hope to chat with you all soon.

  • ww or not.....
    Hey ya'll!
    Yes the hubby needs to lose, but right now i think he is seeing if i stick to something or not! if i actually stick to a diet and lose weight this time, i am thinking he may jump on the bandwagon with me. just wondering if the weight watcher thing is the way to go with it.... I definitely need something to keep me on track. i know i am the one that has to stick with it.... but much motivation is needed here. i really want it this time....(weight loss)
  • Hello everyone!! Just a flyby, my puter is down AGAIN! and I only have limited time on DH's. It's the power cord this time and one is on it's way so hopefully it will be here by the end of the week.

    I'm slowly getting back on track and I do mean slowly. There's too much stuff left in my house. That's what happens when you host the holiday! I put a lot of it in the freezer.

    OK, girlie is paging! Hope everyone is having a great week tween the holidays!
  • Hey Karen, I think you should've asked for a new 'puter for Christmas!

    Becky, Congrats on your baby. Jump right in!

    Sugar, Have you done WW before? It's pretty easy to stick to. I would tell DH that you really want to lose the weight, but it would be soo much easier if you had someone to do it with and ask him if he'll do it with you.
