Good Monday Morning!
 

Good morning all!

I hope everyone is poised for a good week! I've been out of town a lot and that will continue for most of the month. I got back in from a conference last night and am headed out again this afternoon. For a non-election year this fall is busier that I thought it would be. Which means my eating is not doing so good. I haven't been prepared and have been eating almost all my meals out--not good.

I need to get my head back into a healthy eating mode--for some reason that seems to be very hard right now.

I haven't had a chance to check last week's board, but I hope everyone is doing well!

Susan

I'm back :) I had a great time in Louisville. Learned new stuff about toxins, hormones and even time management. I'm ready to take on the world.

I was able to go to lunch with Jackie on Friday. It was great to get to meet another SB buddy. Poor thing had to deal with a little more Arbonne enthusiasm that I meant to give out. It's hard when you are hearing it 24/7 for a few days. I needed the break. :) I got a picture of the two of us on my picture phone. I'll try to post it later...

We got in after midnight on Saturday. I had to go wake up my babies for a kiss. When I woke up yesterday morning Trav informed me that we had a picnic to go to after church, and he had invited some guests over for dinner, too. So by the time I dropped into bed last night I was dead. I haven't been able to catch up on you guys yet, but thought that I would go ahead and post.

I did water aerobic this morning, but had to keep it low key. My back is killing me from the driving and sitting all day for 3 days. I did make myself get up and use the exercise equipment at the hotel every day while I was there. It helped to start the day off right.

I'm not going to weigh today. It's the wrong time of the month to be worrying about an extra lb. I started last night and I'm really cramping.

This week is going to be crazy. I'll try to keep on with you guys. :)


MONET- How about Friday? I'll call you.

Gator- I'm back :) How's the weather down there. Have you been riding with the top down? My sister has a CD changer. They are really great. I tend to use alot of trunk space with strollers, etc.. I think I'll get one when I earn my Mercedes :)

Sorry I haven't been posting but I'm not doing well with my eating. I've just been lurking. Maybe this week will be better. Good luck everyone with MMM.

Good morning Ladies,

Not much time to post. I have to leave for a meeting which will last all afternoon. It was a busy weekend. We had a big church social yesterday. Eating was not good.

Monet I like your challenges this week. I'll do my best. It is rainy here too.

Susan, glad you could pop in. Hope you slow down soon.

Talitha, glad you had a nice trip.

Got to run.

Monet--Thanks for the challenges this week. Right now I can't think of what I do when temptation strikes, because I had a very bad week last week. My plan was just to give in to it!!! LOL :D So MMM was not good to me this week, but it's all my own fault.

But today is a new week, and I have started journaling again a/o this morning. I have lentil soup on the stove, and will eat healthy today. I have French class tonight and I always meet my DH for supper at a Chinese restaurant. We don't get a big meal, and in fact, share one meal. But I don't think Chinese is all that healthy. Too many calories for what you get, because of the oil they use. Might have to switch restaurants.

Talitha--Glad you had a great trip. I sent you an email. Bet it was fun meeting Jackie. We sure miss her on the board, don't we.

BOB--Be sure to read my post to you on page 5 of last week's board. Again, I commiserate with you over the loss to the dang Dawgs at Neyland on Saturday.

Frog--Hope your week is great. Do you still do any running?

Gotta go. Talk to y'all later.

Its been hectic so far today. Had my dentist appointment, and got a gold star for both the upper and lower teeth...hardly any plaque and still no cavities! Not eating sugar helps a LOT.

I made a beef vegetable soup for lunch, and had a friend over for lunch and coffee. We vent together, and commiserate. I have known her for almost 20 years...so its nice to get together.

Breakfast was crustless quiche, lunch was a large bowl of the vegetable beef soup, dinner will be more soup. :)

The second grade teacher called and asked me to sub for her tomorrow. She sounds awful...she has laryngitis, and can barely speak. The headmistress said they would cover the class for me since I teach art tomorrow afternoon too...

Oh, and I finished the baby afghan! It turned out nicely. I need to call the fella I made it for so he can come get it to take to his new nephew. :)

I will check in later! :wave:

Help
 

It's late, I'm tired. I've worked my rear off today.

I just wanted to tell you guys that I was thinking today, and I suddenly realised that this board is JUST as good for me as my exercising at the Y and getting counseling at church. The support I find here really keeps me going, regardless of weight loss or gain. Especially with how crazy my life is. I don't tend to have much time to 'hang out' with friends. But here you are.

Travis is out of town all this week again. I'm getting used to it a bit more. And I know that I can tlak about it here it and no one will tell me to ' Get over it' or say that they WISH their man would go away 3 weeks out of the month. I am so thaqnkful for his job, I just wish I could have him here every night, too.

So I just wanted to say a big thank you, and send you all a hug before I go to bed alone.

Goodnight :)

Good morning! I am subbing today for the second grade teacher. If you think of me today, please pray for me! This is the worst class in the whole school! They are ALL ADD, and hyper, and several talk constantly...its going to be a battle of wills all day, until I can escape to my quiet art room. I don't feel totally great either. I am afraid this bit of a cold I have had is going into my chest....

TALITHA: Aw, thanks. I am sorry you are having to be alone so much. I remember those days, when Tom was in Chicago for weeks on end...it was hard! BIG hugs...

Ok, off to play school teacher! :wave:

Morning everyone.... Couldn't sleep and so I got up, oh so early!!!! I love being on the internet really early and drinking my morning coffee while I type away. Pretty soon it will be time for me to have a piece of peanut butter toast and start my day. The weather is getting cool enough for me to start walking. Maybe that will help spur me on and get me out of this awful slump I'm in.

Monet- Will be thinking of you as you have your hectic day and will say a little prayer that all goes well. I sure don't envy you. I was a grade school teacher's aide for years.

Talitha- I'm sorry your DH has to work away from home. I worry allot about my DH having to do this if his job shuts down. I live in a small rural town and theres no other job in his field here. I had to be the stay at home Mom while he worked out of town. And its sure not fun. I'll be thinking of you.

Gatorgal- Your pot of lentil soup made me sure hungry for some. I've never tried that kind before. EEEEKKKKK I love chinese food. And its the egg rolls that do me in.

Frog Lover- I'm so sorry your scale isn't moving. That has to be so dishearting. Its so great you continue to eat right and its just got to come down soon. Hang in there gal.....

Bob- Yum meatloaf. I might have to make one tonight.

Solly- Hope your meeting was a good one.....

Fillise- Howdy girlfriend... You sure are a busy one...

Well hope I haven't forgotten anyone. Will check back later....

Frog--When was your baby born? I ask that to get more info as I consider your question.
It could be that with your reduced activity you just don't have a balance between energy (calories) taken in and energy expended. So you might try journaling for a week or so to monitor exactly what your caloric intake is, even though you are eating very healthily. Also, make sure that every calorie counts: if you decide to cut back on your caloric intake a bit, make sure that what you eat is supercharged with vitamins, minerals, fiber, protein, etc. Monet's suggestions about not snacking between meals, not eating after dinner, eating smaller meals, etc. are just basic good sense and are an easy way to keep the calories down. Also, my doctor told me that for some women, giving birth or going through menopause sometimes triggers hormonal changes with thyroid and losing weight becomes harder. So the leptin thing might help bring tht back into balance for you. Finally, don't lose hope. Just keep on keeping on doing the right thing and you will eventually see success. As you heal from the caesarian you will be able to become more active which should help. Keep posting and using this board as a support group. It's harder to go it alone.

Better today
 

I'm back from the Y and checking in. I have a meeting with a new Business Builder at 4 and a group presentation at 6. My sister was coming over to watch the kids for me, but my mom just called. Apparentyl she turned her ankle in dance class and they are taking her to the emergency room. I"M FREAKING OUT!!!!! I am worried about her ankle, and I'm sorry that she's hurt,,,,But what the keck am I going to do with my kids!!! Alot of times I can take them with me, but it's just not appropriate for either of these instances. I'm making calls like crazy to figure something out.


Frog- I lost weight like crazy after my first csection. I was a mad woman. Out walking 4 miles a day when Selah was 3 weeks old. This one has been a different story. The weight's not budging. Jacob is already 9 months old, and I'm back up to the weight I was when I got pregnant with him. Sounds crazy, but I lost 20 lbs with each pregnancy, because I have it so bad. With this one, I've gained it back! So when he was 5 omnths old I was down to 175, and now I'm back up to 191! I hate it.

Toni- I was up early, too. I love the fallw eather coming in. Doesn't it feel great?!!

Hey, everyone! School today was unbelievable. I need to remember to pray for the second grade teacher DAILY. The dynamics of the class are horrific, and she has three who are bonafide ADD, and almost impossible to control. I was SO ready to leave at 1:30 and go down to my quiet art room and teach art! I felt like I was released from prison. AND, the teacher is still sick and my neighbor will be subbing for her tomorrow.

Dinner tonight was country fried steak, made with brown rice flour. It turned out great! I also had brown rice, and made the kids some mashed potatoes, which I tasted. We had broccoli too. Lunch was chicken salad, carrots, broccoli, some macadamia nuts and a diet coke. Oh, and a banana. :)

I am SO tired...I also have a weird cramp in my foot that is driving me nuts. I am going to have to go fix Tom's smoothies and lunch soon, even though I really don't want to. :(

FROG: I am glad the scale moved some for you!

TONI: Its good to see you posting! I bet the cooler weather and walking will help get you back on track! Someone was saying to committ to just doing ten minutes...and probably once you start you will keep going longer! :)

BOB: Good to see you posting! <<hugs>>

TALITHA: I am looking forward to Friday! Someone asked me to sub on Friday, and I told them no, I had plans! :)

ok, off to get my evening chores done. I fell asleep on the swing in the backyard by the pool when I got home from school, instead of doing them, so I am behind now! :(

Howdy!
 

I didn't run away. :) I no longer have internet service. I'm visiting my mom and my new precious little grand daughter. :) I'm now a memaw! Sending love and hugs to everyone.

Love,
Crystle

We had a wonderful time at the falls. It was very beautiful and would of been more so if it was not such miserable weather. It drizzled the whole time and was so cold we had to buy gloves. We walked from NY to Canada ! HA. I can actually say that ! We walked so much I dont think Ive ever walked that much in one day. But it was very invigorating. We did not ride the "maid of the Mist" but we did go up in a big thing that raises way above everything and you can see all around that part of Canada and Ny. We went to two casinos at night and .. darn... didnt win a thing. LOL. This was DH's first time gambling and last time.. he says... He didnt like giving his hard earned money away. I wanted to get some pics in the casinos but they did not allow cameras. We ate at this buffet that had more food than you could hardly believe! We visited the Hersey's store and I drooled over all the chocolate.
There were tons of people there at the Falls and most were all from outside the US. It was very exciting hearing all the different languages and accents.

I ate way too much. Dh and my friends kept saying "your on vacation stop worrying so much" And I caved in. Though I really didnt eat anything I shouldnt of just too much of what I did eat. They all ate desserts and sweets and I managed to stay clear of that. I just devoured too many calories and way too much fat. I am not weighing until Monday to give me a chance to get back to my schedule of eating over the next 5 days.
Heres our pics ( hope Im putting them on here correctly)
This is going over the bridge towards Canada and looking at where you board the "Maid of the Mist "

That tall lookout station in on the US side.

About halfway over the bridge looking at Canada

The US falls is on the left and the Candana one is on the right.

Another pic of both falls

Rick and I ( after walking in the rain for hours lol )

American falls ( our hotel is the tall building to the left in the background)

My kids are crazy. Up at 5:30 this morning. THey've had breakfast, read books and now Jake is taking his morning nap. It's 7:30!!! I can see that today is going to be all out of wack, but I'm going to do as much as I can.

I have to go to the post office to mail out some samples. Mailing stuff intimidates me. Between The USPS, UPS and FedEx, I don't know who is the cheapest and easiest. There is a UPS store nearby, but do they have the legal size envelope that is a flat rate, or is that FedEx? I guess I should take one of the packets to the USPS and see what they would mail it for, then I can just mail it with stamps from home in the future, right?

I have my second appt with a coach at the Y today. I'm excited about it. I've been pretty consistent with my exercise for 3 weeks now. I feel good, but I don't think my weight is showing progress.

I broke down and bought a digital scale at Target yesterday. The one I have was the cheapest one I could find, and it is so inconsistent. I can step on it 3 different times and get 3 different weights. The digital seems to be better, and I'm not guessing on where it really is.

Monet- I will need groceries on Friday (Pay Day). How about Harry's?

Country- We miss you :( Will you be able to check in every now and then?

Cindy- Great pictures!!!! I've never been to Niagra, and honestly never felt interested until I saw your pictures. IT's gorgeous!!! I want to go!!

Today is art day at school! :) I am dressed and about ready to run out the door. I stopped in to read while I drank my coffee.

TALITHA: Harry's? That is ok, but I was thinking DFM...if you prefer Harry's, its ok by me. You may be disappointed though... We could always re-enact our last meet up and have lunch at Sweet Tomatoes! LOL

CINDY: The pix are great! Thanks for sharing! I have never been there either, but I would love to go! Thanks for the warning on the Hershey's...I won't eat any since you drooled all over it! :lol3:

Ok, I gotta go. I have a sore throat slightly, and my nose is stopped up. I am afraid its going to be a long day! :(

See ya all this afternoon!

Hello all--a quick fly-by to say hey and I'm still around.

I may be headed to the beach this weekend (just for fun) and then next week to NC where I am leading a women's retreat over the weekend. That will be three weekends in a row at a beach. Two of them are working weekends, but still working at the beach is better than time off anywhere else, as far as I'm concerend!!!!

Cindy--My DN and I visited the hershey store on Times Square daily while in NYC last summer! So much fun (so much chocolate!). I'm glad you had a good trip.

Talitha--sounds like you are really working your business hard--good for you!!! Baby weight sounds like it is maddening--but aren't those little ones so worth it?

Frog--I have found that when I go off plan for an extended period of time, it takes me 2-3 weeks of eating on plan before I start losing again. Don't know why, but if I stay with it, it does start coming off again. Give the tadpole a hug from her Aunt Susu!

BOB--Great to hear from you! I'm working on my DM to make another trip to Tampa next spring to check on my Aunt. . .

Monet--On my way back from NC next week, I'm planning (right now) and going through up and down I-85. On my way back on Monday (the 28th), I'd love to meet you at Harry's if you have time. It will probably be about lunchtime, but I'll let you know.

Gator--Hey!

Everyone else--Hey!

Got to go--Have a great OP day everyone!

Susan

Hello SB gals..... Just got done putting the stuff in my bread maker to make a loaf of whole wheat bread. Have eggs on to make egg salad. So I've been busy in the kitchen. This evening I'm going to try and make some enchiladas with whole wheat tortillas. I hope they turn out good. I canned some chicken up a while back and I'm going to use that for the filling. I'm trying hard today to eat healthy.

Monet- Hope you have a great day with your class.

Talitha- What a long day you're going to have. But I sure miss those years when my kids were young and so easy to please.

Cindy- What a wonderful vacation. It looks beautiful there.

CountryMom- Miss you posting!!!!

Howdy Bob and Frog Lover......

Better go and fold laundry.......

I'm back from the Y. I want a nap!!!!! Meeting was great. He gave me some more ab exercises that are safe for my back.

I think I may put hte kids donw and snooze for at least 15 minutes...

MONET- Ok, I thought you didn't want to drive that far. I absolutely prefer DFM I think I'm going to skip the latin cardio, because it hurt my back last time. How about meeting there at 10? We can shop for a bit then have lunch at the cafeteria. I love the DFM!!!! I haven't been in almost a month!


Toni- You can do it. I love those WW tortillas. I actually prefer them now! As much as I didn't want to get out of bed so early this morning, they were really sweet. Selah crawled into bed with me and was just singing and playing with my hair. Jake was calling to us fromt he other room with baby babble. It was precious...

Fillisi- I agree, working at the beach would be fine with me!! I am focused on working hard this month. I love this board as an outlet and a link to the outside world, expecially with Trav gone.

Hi Ladies

Sorry I have been MIA. I have been out all week working in our other office and didn't have time to get on the computer. Eating has not been good. Time to have a talk to myself again. I hurt my back and I have slacked big time on exercise this week. I guess bad eating and no exercise goes hand and hand.

Toni, glad to see you back at it. Take it one day at a time.

Frog, glad to see the scale moved for you.

Cindy, what beautiful pics. I have never been to NF, it is beautiful. SOrry the weather was so bad for you. Sounds like you made the most of it though.

Monet. Just count your blessings you don't have that class all the time. Sounds like you could sub pretty much full time.

Susan, Wow, working at the beach. Now that's my kind of job.

Talitha, You deserve a nap, getting up that early and getting to the gym. Sorry your DH is gone again. Have fun with Monet Friday. Give her a hug for me.

Country, no more internet??? Does that mean you won't be on here much. Give us the scoop on the new grandbaby? Pics please. Congratulations.

Bob, You are so crazy.

Gator, now you have me craving Chinese. How is your new car?

Is Techwife back yet?

:wave: Hi all you SB Gals!
Sorry I haven't been around but things are still hectic here since Rita's visit. We still have 2 of our church members living at our house, trying to get work done on the church, still no electricity or water there, going to therapy 3 x/ week & DD getting married this Saturday. It's just crazy!

I lost 2 lbs but scale still going back & forth but at least not up. Some days I try & do well then other days are just not good. I had started back at the gym but just can't seem to find the time right now. Maybe when things settle down a bit.

Country, congrats on the new grandbaby!!

Cindy, thanks for sharing the pics of the falls. I went there over 40 years ago. Has changed some but I remember how beautiful to was. A memory I will always treasure!

Sorry I can't reply to all but I'll try to drop in when I can.

I am home from school. My feet hurt. I really need to get new shoes. The classes went well, with the exception of the second grade and the sixth and seventh grade, which was split half and half on how they did. I need to move them along faster...but they are all SO good at talking...

I am so happy I don't have to go back until next Tuesday...uh oh! I just remembered I have a meeting with the headmistress and the other enrichment teachers tomorrow. Bummer! Its to present to us the form for doing grades for the upper grades. Fun! NOT!

I read the board, and I feel kind of depressed. It seems we are dropping like flies around here. Now Country doesn't have internet connection, and Pancho is pulling back - for great reasons, but she will be missed nonetheless. I think I will go take a nap. I just can't handle anything right now. :( Wake me up with some good news, ok?

:wave:

Good News! God loves you.

Well, now, Gator, that is good news that never gets old with me... :)

A short nap and two glasses of wine revived my spirits tremendously. My feet feel better, and I am feeling encouraged. :)

Not much going on...dinner was pecan crusted salmon fillet, and spinach. I did not eat all of it. I have to admit when I am honest with myself, that I really don't like salmon. I don't like the flavor...but its not too bad. So, I force myself to eat it now and then, because it is so healthy. I would much rather have a sole fillet! (and they are cheaper too! Well, at the Korean market where I shop they are!)

I only got about 8000 steps today. I did not walk around as much, as the students were doing assessment sheets, and I just sat at my table while they worked. The sheets were not easy and it amazed me how quiet they were while working! :)

Off to get ready for bed! Night!

I'm still here!
 

Good Morning Everyone. Kids were up at 6 this morning, getting a lottle closer to normal. I was up till midnight doing laundry. Selah got in bed with me about 3 and Jake woke up at 5, but went back to sleep with us. I swear when Trav comes home I'm sleeping on the couch and letting him take care of a night for me. :)

Today is going to be pretty full again. Off to the Gym at 8:30, Park date at 10 with the mom's group. I'm watching a friends son from 3-8 this afternoon, so I am planning on letting calls go to the answering machine. I'm going to spend the afternoon studying for my next test (in my Nutrition program) and just playing with my babies.
I should be getting my grade back form my first test soon. I'm sure I did ok, but I'm really curious. I have another to do on Monday.

Ok, got to get dressed for my workout. Have a great day!!!

Frog- Tad's sweater sounds so cute! I think I'll follow your lead and make an effort to drink more water. I haven't tracked it in a long time,b ut I know I'm not drinking as much as I used to...

Monet- See you tomorrow!!! I have an 8:30 meeting, so it may be more like 10:30/11. Is that ok? I had to reschedule meetings from the other day when my sister couldn't babysit.

Gator- you're awesome. I love your good news!!!

Melf- Keep us posted and drop in when you can!

Pancho- we understand. WE'll miss you.

Solly- Welcome back. DOn't worry about the eating. I didn't do as well as I wanted to last week when I went to KY. I'm jsut not letting myself dwell on it.

BOB- So, I had to go back and see what post everyone was talking about. I missed it skimming in sucha hurry. You absolutely crack me up!!!

Morning! I woke up early this morning, but rolled over and went back to sleep. I just got up! The biggest bummer is that when I went to take my meds this morning, the Thursday slot was already empty! Idiot that I am, I think I took them twice yesterday! I am not sure if I should just take them today, or skip. What is the point of having a day by day container for your pills if you STILL take two on one day??? sigh...

TALITHA: Ok, now I am confused. Are you moving it back to 10:30, 11, or what? If I get there at 10, I will freak if you don't show up until 11..(well, probably not, but I do find waiting difficult...) Tell me what time to be there, and I will do my best to show up then! :) It takes me about 20 to 30 minutes to get there...

FROG: Thanks for the suggestion! I am going to check out that website. I am in the market for a better pair of shoes, and am certainly up for a recommendation! I am sure my foot pain is from my shoes. I used inserts yesterday, and while the shoes squished my toes, I did not get the painful cramp I had Tuesday night. Thankfully, I can wear my birks until next Tuesday now! :)

FROG: I went and checked out the web site...I am going to try and find someplace around here that carries them, so I can see how they actually fit, then I will order some off the webpage! The prices are not too bad, and as long as I can find a plainish black loafer type, I am fine! :)

Morning. Being Im still on vacation I can pop on and off during the day :) .
Ive got a few minutes before I have to get dressed and head to a eye dr appt so thought I would come say hi.
I got my carpets shampoo'd yesterday and even got to the gym. Today I cleaned out my closest and bagged up clothes going to the good will and now Im heading to the eye appt then another drs appt later in the afternoon.
Wish It wasnt so gloomy out and I could get some things done in the yard. Today looks like rain.
Well need to get myself up from here and get dressed for the day. Ill try to get back later and do some replies. :smug:

Howdy!
 

Visiting mom again. :) Hopefully I can visit the board when I visit mom which is usually about twice a week. Sometimes more. The new little one is such a sweetheart. She honestly never cries or fusses. You think it could be because she is held 24/7...LOL Seriously she is a very happy baby so far.

Hopefully I'll be able to be a good participant when I can sneak on. :) The scales are the highest they have been in over 5 years.

Monet...Oh my gosh....did you noticed anything different when you took two days worth of meds? I see you survived the ADD children. Just having one has kept me on my toes. I can't imagine a whole class full.

Toni...I miss ya'll when I can visit. ((hugzz))

Talitha...Sounds you have a busy day planned today. Good job on getting in your workout.

Solly...((hugzz))

Frog...it's so nice to be able to be able to love the new little one and then give her back...LOL Just teasing. I keep threating to sneak her out in my purse.

Melf...saying prayers for you and yours.

Bob....are things finally settling down at work? How is your shoulder?

(((Everybody)))

Love,
Crystle
