Welcome to week 2 ladies! I hope you all have a productive morning/day and are ready to knock down a few more pounds this week!!!!
I must admit this morning I just didn't want to get up and do my ab workout. I am hoping to get it in today plus some yoga. I have two assignments due tonight and I would prefer being at home to do them instead of at work LOL
I also need to order my Halloween Costume tonight. I'll buy the XL but it's only $15 before S&H....i am hoping to look respectable in it. Anyway...
Good Morning All. My firt weigh in showed nearly a #3 loss. I'm feeling good with that.
Today's WEED:
W- start drinking
E- OP- mindful
E- WATP 3 miles- Done
D- exercise is good for the soul
Holy T- Luch for me today is chef salad and maybe some yogurt. I'm going to be on the road for the next couple of days so eating is going to be a challenge. See you all mid week!
Hey Grazie thanx for the lunch update. I need to put something together and I'm having a hard time deciding what I want LOLOL
Whatever i'll have, it'll have some homemade mushroom soup along side it. I made that up last night and it was really good.
I took some supplements What I *need* to do is post my weed!!
W: 64 oz (extra would be better)
E: lunchtime workout, possibly my ab and yoga workout tonight after schoolwork
E: 1400 calories
D: get my schoolwork done and NOT stress about my crappy job.
Hi ladies!!! I'm going to try to join this challenge. I really, really, really need to. I've put on about 8 pounds and i feel it. I was just starting to lose it in my mid-section, so you know where it is coming back too....yup...the mid-section. So...I am going to try to check in everyday and post how i'm doing, what i'm eating, and if i'm doing any excersize.
Todays goal.... is to drink 8 glasses of water, and eat less....lol. I had an egg for breakfast on one peice of toast, i've got a banana for a mid-morning snack, a lean cruisine panini for lunch and a pack of swiss on wheat crackers for mid-afternoon snack. Dinner tonight is taco bake, so i'm going to have one serving of that. I may stop off for some lettuce and have a side salad to go with it to help fill me up. I don't know about excersize yet...but i'm going to atttempt to get some in. My gym membership went bye bye when my bf lost his job and i couldn't pay it on my own, but he's working now...and as soon as we get caught up in the bills and pay the back gym fees, i'll be going back to the gym. He's so sweet. I wanted to change my membership to the cheaper one but when i was talking about how much i enjoyed my class at the most expensive gym, he insisted that i go back to that one. So, i can't wait.
My usual goals are 5 pounds a month, but i think i'm going to try to take it easier on myself because i'm still getting adjusted to living with my bf and having to cook wonderful home cooked meals. So, my goals are 3 pounds a month...which will be 6 for halloween. That would put me back at about 136.
Sounds great Lumi....now we need to refresh that APB for auddie....
Well ladies guess what? Some jerkface tried to steal my car yesterday.........and when they couldn't, they stole the change out of it, busted the ignition...yeah, i thought today was going to be a better day. I was wrong.
Wow, lot of work to steal a handful of change....what did they get, 75 cents? Whatta bunch of jerks. I guess crackheads will try ANYTHING to get money. Shame. Especially to happen to someone so sweet trying so hard to get ahead! Some people just have the worst luck. Poor gal. We still love ya!
I wasn't on last week, we had to go buy a new DSL modem for the computer, it cost me like 70 bucks! But I'm happy to be back online.
DH had his shoulder operated on Thursday, and he is doing AWESOME. I thought he'd be in more pain and need more TLC but he is doing really well and has been insisting on being independent about most things.
Bowling went well this weekend, I only drank moderately, split two pitchers and only did one shot....not bad for me. Then I got all sad because everyone said they'd come to my house afterwards to play a big poker tournament, and NO ONE showed up. How rude! They're all a bunch of potheads anyways, and since we don't, they probably went and smoked up somewhere and didn't bother to come...but we had tables set up and snacks/beer and everything! Last time, I swear, last time, I try to hang out with that group of people. Oh and I bowled 199-125-169....my average is around 149 which sucks, it was 170's when I was smaller. These hips are just bigger to swing the ball around. And when I'm exercising I throw the ball harder too.
How are the injuries? I remember Mindy saying she pulled her hip and HolyT and her back....hope you're all in top shape these days.
Oh question....just out of curiousity....a few of you mentioned last week that you were struggling with depression issues, but wanted to avoid medications. I, too am battling depression, although I've mentioned a million times that I think the Depo shot is making me crazy and HORMONAL....but I've been considering asking for medications. Just curious, then, why try to avoid using them? weight gain side effects? Using meds as a crutch rather than facing/dealing with the issues? Why resist? Of course, my mind is always looking for that magic pill, for weight loss, so surely there is a pill out there that will make me happy too? ha ha. Just wanted to know the pros and cons. My next Depo isn't due for at least three more weeks so more roller coasting for me until I just don't get it renewed, then back to the Pill or whatever else. Of course, I know I'd feel better if I just exercised.
I'm up weight wise, haven't been to the gym in over a week, and have been eating like crap since...well pretty much in the three weeks since bowling started. I have good days, but I know I haven't been completely on track. So TODAY is that day again. Today I will go to the gym. Today I will eat right. Today I will drink my water. TODAY. I'm happy I have you girls to keep me sane.
Lumi, happy to see you again!!! xoxooxoxo
Let me see if I can figure out how to post picures in this site yet. I'll post Robert's first day of school pics. Love to all....xoxoxooxo Michelle
i think a couple of bucks....that's it. either they were interrupted in the middle of everything, or freaked out by the spare tampon in the glove box....they left it open but gently closed the door....gently but not completely. I thought i'd left my door open after shoppin yesterday but I was wrong. They trashed the ignition too....i don't know if they couldn't get the car started or what. All i know is that now i'm gonna have to pay to get my car's ignition fixed which probably means new keys. I'm not certain about it, but that's what i'm guessing. And from what Dad says, it's gonna cost quite a bit.
My back is doing better. I slept on my bed....that helped a lot. I told DH next time he tries to drunk-hog the bed I'm inflating the air mattress LOL
Hey ladies!! This is going to be a short one...for once...lol. I stayed up too late enjoying the peace and quiet. Actually I didn't fall asleep until almost daylight and now I've found out that I'm too old to pull allnighters anymore. I did catch up on all my tv programs I had on the DVR.
I had my cheat meal today after weigh in. I had a low carb burger and fries from Hardees...it was gross. I didn't eat but half. I sent my husband up for it and instead of the curly fries they gave me regular. Of course I called and complain. I told the guy how much I was looking forward to those damn curly fries. He said there would be 4 large curly fries waiting on me next time we came through. Just what I needed...4 orders. LMAO! I know where my next binge eating will be...jk. So I weighed in and have lost 2 lbs. If I was to bet money on it I would have bet plus 2. I'm so happy I'm ready to go another week.
Lumi-Welcome!
Holy- I hope the ******* fell and broke his damn leg trying to get out of your car.
Michelle-My husband would have milked the surgery for all it was worth. As for the pothead's... They probably got stoned and forgot how to get to your house.
So much for short and sweet. I'm going to go try and get a few minutes in on the bike. After that, I'm laying in bed and going to flipped through some magizines and play Donkey Kong Country. Take it easy gals!!
Andrea
This has to be quick. I feel terrible I haven't been able to post personals. Got home at 430, gut up at 830. Been cleaning up after DH and the kids since. I cant wait to go pick up my daughter. I haven't seen her since yesterday at 3.
HolyT I would love to have you come and work with me. Sometimes I think the people i work with are either Stupid, dumb, or just plain old lazy. Ok the shift I was on last night is different than my normal shift, but I swear they made messes just because they new I would clean them up. I am trying to get out of my Wed. Night shift.
Hey, all!! Things are settling down for me a bit. Getting my act together at school and getting home earlier. That could all change real soon. They are dissolving my class, the 4/5 split and opening a straight 5th. Plus they will be opening a new kindergarten. I should have the option to choose and will jump on the kindergarten. Just what I've been waiting for. Hope it happens soon. It will mean more chaos for a while, but it will be worth it.
I was 208.4 this morning, so that's good. I want to see 207 before TOM. Getting below 205 after TOM would be awesome. I started the BL challenge here on 3fc yesterday by weighing in. We should know teams in about a week. I want to be under 200 by the end of Oct. and close to 190 by Christmas. It's doable.
Holy- Feeling better I see. You must be busy 24/7. Cooking, planning, dancing, schol and work. Yikes!!
Grazer- Way to go!! Keep it up. You're doing awesome.
Lumi= Join the gang once more and SCARE away that fat. You know the drill.
Michelle- Glad to hear about hubbies surgery. Sorry to hear about losers who call themselves friends. My theory on meds, If they help, do it. We are only human and all use some help now and then.
Jelly- Curly fries? MMMM!! Send some my way. Good job losing 2 pounds. Keep it up.
Jeni- Enjoy the time with your daughter. It would suck to be away from her like that.
When I said a few minutes I meant it. I was on the bike for maybe ten minutes today. I've been laying on the couch ever since. I feel like I have a hangover and I haven't drank in years. I will never pull an all nighter. After the curly fry incident I've had a bowl of popcorn and tonight a bowl of Cocoa Pebbles. Yes I got another box of Pebbles. I know.
I'm going to try my best to get some exercising in tomorrow. My house is a total disaster and it is going to take me all day to get it cleaned. I didn't clean at all this weekend and with a three year old....well you get the idea.
I'm going to go take a couple tylenol pm's and dummy up in bed with a movie.
My W.E.E.D. for tomorrow-
W-64 but any would be nice.
E-bike, gazelle, and arms
E-1200
D-Cocoa pebbles are the devil.
Have a wonderful evening ladies!!
i'm famished. i ate some cottage cheese, a dinner roll, some pita bites, and i'm baking a potato in the micro. I'll put some salsa and cheese on that while i work on schoolwork. I really want to be in bed by 10....if i can manage that i can get up early without problems.
LOL holy...BTW what are pita bites? Sounds delectible. Also, where is the biggest loser sign up? I looked through some of the forums but didn't see it.
I did have a lovely time with my daughter, even though she and her brother fought most of the afternoon. Oh well. I got to hug and kiss her. I got a letter home yesterday and the class size is down to 23 students (Hurray) even with the huge buget cuts, they were able to get in another teacher. I am glad that Mak wasn't moved though.
I am completely and utterly exhausted right now. My body got some sleep it had been craving (not enough though) and it just wants more. My body has gotten a bit messed up because of the past weekend THEN TOM shows up early I want to call in sick. I am going to try to get out of the shift tomorrow night, wish me luck.
Mindy I hope you get your kindergarten class!
JellyB~I hate that hung over feeling after staying up too long. If I have a hangover I better have enjoyed getting it!
Michelle~ I had the worst mood swings when I was on Depo. I also had the worst cramping (like couldn't get out of bed). I was on it for about a year and I had to get off. I didn't agree with me.
Grazer 3# is great!! good job!
Today
W 64 oz
E extra laps around the plant
E 1200 good and healthy cals
