30-something Chat-Hump Day February 27
Hi Girls!
Well, I have had a pretty productive week. I walked 4km yesterday, went to the gym on Monday and walked 1km for warm up and then sat on that darn exercise ball and did 20 crunches. I did a few other things before calling it quits an hour later and walked back home. I have also been eating pretty well also. NO CANDY!! I haven't had candy in a week!!! That, for me, is a MAJOR MAJOR hurdle! I looooove Polly dark and white(little balls of dark and white chocolate with a soft lime center). They are my favourite goodies here. I buy them subconsciously. I also have only had 2 glasses of soda pop in 7 days. Glasses here are hold about a can of soda and I am trying to only have 1 cup of coffee a day. In the land of coffee breaks every 2 hours that is hard to do!
Right now I am regretting not getting to the gym earlier today. It was really pretty and sunny out and now it is grey and looks like it is going to rain and naturally I am so sweet that I will melt in the rain
Hope everyone has a good day. I think I am going to stay home and do some crunches and hit the gym tomorrow. Maybe I will *gasp* clean the apartment!
Getting ready to hit the workout with Tony Horton (how I love him ), will definitely check back in later. Nicci, good for you with no candy!!! I know how hard that is!!
good morning all...well i'm celebrating this am....i lost 3 lbs (didn't weigh last week) and 2.25 inches...woohooooo. :c arrot:I'm only 7 lbs from my half way point. When i reach that, i'm treating myself to a massage. I really need it now, but it will be a treat in 7 lbs.
DaDuck- good job on the working out yesterday and all the staying away from candy/coke. Coke is an issue with me. I have one can once a day. I really need to give it up...145 calories is a lot...but just not ready to give it up yet...good for you.
morning pam- hope your date (erhh workout) with tony went well (:

Gatorgirl, Congrats on the weight and inches lost!!
DaDuck, good for you on staying away from the candy and soda. Sweets are my weakness as well!
Pam, enjoy your Tony workout.
My workout will have to wait until this afternoon. The roofer is coming this morning to hopefully fix the leaky roof that he apparently didn't fix the last time. It's cold as heck here today. Yesterday it was in the 60s today it's only supposed to get into the mid 30s. I swear the weather is nuts lately! Have a great day everyone!
heather...i keep forgetting to ask ou where in SC are you. I use to live in Savannah (just south of hilton head) and m sister lives in Columbia. Hope your roof gets fixed.
Good morning! Once again waiting for Mickey to be over so that I can work out...then we get to watch Elmo or Happy Feet again - I guess we are consistent with our mornings around here!!
GG - congrats on the weight loss - that's exciting. Hope the roads are better for you today and that they have things cleaned up.
Pam - did you do the Tony ab DVD?
Nicci - I love candy too! Congrats on staying away from it. I gave in to the Starburst jelly beans this past weekend. I told myself our household could buy one bag this season.
Heather - sounds like your getting our kind of weather there today. I am so happy that is back above 10 degrees here again!
i have been so super busy at work i just dont know where my days go...we have been having baby after baby...its lovely!..but the more babies the more work..i dont want to work full time but i have been..its alright because its not always but its hard cause i miss my little mario!
gg: great job on the weight loss!..congrats...i think a massage at the 1/2 point is awesome
pam: you are always so good with your morning workouts...keep it up....you inspire me!
duck: i have ahard time skipping the candy too...i dont like a big selection but put in front of me what i do like (reeses peanut butter cups) and ill eat them all...good for you for not eating it!
heather: i agree with you on the weather...its been freezing here, snowing last month...storming...this is the most activity out here weather wise i can remember...we are in northern california and this weather just doesnt happen...although, yesterday, and i think today are supposed to be nice...i hope it warms up for you soon
dawn: do you know every single word to happy feet yet?...does your little one?...mario knows the words to batman, flushed away and lion king...its too funny!..have a great day
well...better start getting ready...have a great day!
Still suffering the sinus mess here. Was supposed to start a new temp job today, but in the course of a few hours yesterday it went from an awesome job, in the same complex DH works, great pay - to "the company has put the position on the shelf for now".
Hey all, thought I would pop in before work. I have the 1:30 - close shift. One time we still had customers in the store at almost 11. (we close at 10 on Senior's day)
GG, Congrats on the losses! That is awesome. When you see those kinda results it helps to fuel the rest of the losses. I understand what you are saying about the employees. I have one that is, well I don't know if she's all there or what the situation is, totally blonde. (I am too, naturally ~ so don't be hatin' ladies)
Lauren, sorry about the job. That is the most frustrating thing. I hope you find something soon.
Pam, enjoy your date like GG said. How did you end up making the boob cake, btw?
DaD, congrats on the workout and staying away from the sweets and coke. My weekness is Diet Coke and anything chocolate.
Well I think I will hit the balance ball before work. My back has been killing me, lifting ladies and plus size clothes are extremely heavy.
heather...i keep forgetting to ask ou where in SC are you. I use to live in Savannah (just south of hilton head) and m sister lives in Columbia. Hope your roof gets fixed.
We live near Clemson. I hope the roof gets fixed soon too and right. Fortunately, we rent this house so it's not really our problem, but it gets annoying having to sweep up the ceiling paint and wipe up the water every time it rains.
Gimmie a G... Gimmie another G! What does it spell? ....Uh....GG!
I think today it stands for you Go Girl!
Lisa, I asked about the avatar pic cause it looks like Mt McKinley. The Tallest mountain in North America. It just happens to be here in Alaska. Ironically it can almost never be seen in it's entirety. Usually there is either cloud cover at the top or hovering around the base.
Lauren, Sorry to hear about the job falling thru. Something will come up. I am pulling for you.
Did not get back on the tread mill last night. I am too tired from the riding the roller coaster. (lose a pound, gain a pound, lose a pound, gain a pound)
Not really, I was and am still too sore to safely walk on it. Did some streaching. did some baking. did some falling asleep on the couch. It's all good.
Hope every one is having a great day! Tomorrow is the Chiropracter. Hopefully he will straighten me out.
WEll last night I went and did my 4 min work out and was somewhat bummed. My workout was awesome but they said in order to work out we needed to drink those shakes you know the ones that made me so sick. I am just really bummed so I might go to the other one down the street and see if they are doing that also. If so then I will just work out at home and it is getting nice to go walking too.
DaDuck: Good for you on the no candy. What I have found to work for me is to get some of the flavored diet pop which i don't have much of. Or stick the candy in the freezer, it is the suck thing.
P: What type of work out is that anyway.
Delta Dawn: I totally hear ya on the micky part of things. What I used to do was turn mickey on in my room that way I could work out at the same time and then it was mommy and kiddie time.
Christina: Did I miss something here, your poppin out babies right and left? I am assuming you are foster caring if not well You go girl!!
Lauren: that sucks about the job, but here is a little humor for you! No sneakin in the bathrooms for any mid day snack now. Girl you would have had the best of both worlds.............
Hey Lisa sounds like you are going crazy like the rest of us.
SapHeather: Don't worry pretty soon you won't be cleaning all of the time. You hang in there.
Ok I better get I have to answer the board from yesterdays posts.
The plot thickens...the agency calls me at 10 to see if I can work today. Same job, same pay, it's back on...can i be there at noon? Sure, why not. UGH...this better be worth it!
Hmm looks to me like you are going to get the best of both worlds. Heck I wouldn't complain going to add some serious spice to the marriage there girly.
