Slim Down Sisters: Version 2009!
Here's our thread for the new year, girls!
Wendy, Ro, Aimee, Randee, Courtnie.....GET OVER HERE! :dizzy: |
HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE! :celebrate: I hope you all had a fantastic and safe New Years Eve. I hung out with my friend Desi, got to met her mother, family, and friends. People were drinking, eating :o, smoking, having a good time. We popped (illegal :D) fireworks and chilled. Got home around 4:30 and slept all day long. WI today was up around three lbs but no surprise considering last night. I'm cool with it. ;) For those who were wondering, I've been without my computer for the last couple of days. Basically, my mama brought me about 1 GB of memory and a new dvd drive to have installed so I can start my WAH job. She also paid my cable bill (totally surprise!) so my internet would be up and running. How on earth did a wonderful woman like that get stuck with a daughter like me? :?: So I'm back in the game! Sooner I start working this other job, the sooner I can get Leonidas whatever he needs. :) |
Hello!!!!
I'm here and looking forward to losing some weight!! I'm down 2 lbs from Monday, most likely water weight but I'll take the loss :). I'll be hitting the gym sometime today and then do some grocery shopping, good thing to because RJ says theres nothing to eat! LOL! Shari- you deserve a great mama, because you are great!!Like mother like daughter. Love ya! Enjoy your day everyone!!!! |
Happy New Years Girls!! Good to see you all posting again! Not much going on my end, just dealing with some really crappy weather, and all the Christmas stuff at work. Busy times!
-Aimee |
Happy New Year all!! My bf and I (yes, I hooked me a boyfriend lol) went out with his mom, her bf and his brother. It was alright. We went to a local hick bar with realllllllllllllllly bad karaoke!! We tried to make the best out of it (it was a bar his mom and her bf went to alot).
Im going to start watching what I eat on Monday. Its hard right now with all the goodies still in the house. Rob, my bf, and I are going to start walking when he gets off work, and watching what we eat..I.E.. no more fast food!! Anyhoo..just wanted to write a quick post. Gotta get off the computer..ive been on it all day! Rob and I got addicted to the Sims games lol Talk soon :) |
Hey everyone!! Just going for a big grocery shop today, getting all the nice healthy food! I haven't been to the gym yet this year, sad really but something always seems to come up. Tomorrow after school I'll be going though! =)
|
WAHOOOOO!!! I'm down another LB!! Thats 3 in one week!! :)
Have a good day ladies! I'm off to school! |
Woo Hoo!!! Way to go!! Keep up the good job!!!
Im sooooooooooooooo glad the kids are in school again!! We had a major snow storm (which we dont GET where im at) they ended up with 3 weeks off instead of just 2! I planned on doing absolutly NOTHING today!! but.....I think im going to set up the Wii Fit for me and play around on that!! Hope everyone has a great day!! |
:wave: girls!
Ugh, seriously? Can nothing go right for me? Mama buys me the memory I need and my computer decides to CRAP OUT on me! *breathe* I spent the last two days trying to battle those old feelings. This is not the time to get depressed! I printed out my 30 day free pass for Ballys and went today. It was nice, quite nerve wreaking. He asked me about my goals and I told him I'm all about de-stressing right now. These money problems are affecting every aspect of my life. Work is depressing, there really is no other word for it. Things will work out, things will work out, things WILL work out! |
Hello!
Shari- yes, things will work out!! (((HUGS)))
Just another day around here. Nothing exciting to report, just thought I'd stop by and say "hi". |
Shari- Things WILL work out!! Its funny,well not too funny, but the same thing happened with my old computer!!! Upgraded memory...then it died on me!!!
I havent printed out my Ballys pass...not sure if I would really actually work out there. Ballys is kinda one of those places, IMHO, that you have to work out and get in shape...BEFORE you work out at Ballys LOL. Have a wonderful day!! P.S. Where is everyone??? |
Hey ladies! I've been exercising up a storm lately, and then today I threw out my back... grrr! Hopefully I'll be better for tomorrow so I can get back at 'er! Diet not doing so great, but definitely not horrible! I say this as we wait for wings and salad to arrive.
Shari - I hope things get better for yah! You definitely deserve it! My computer has been acting up lately as well, something in the air perhaps? It's my battery, so my laptop has to be plugged in at all time, could be worse! purple - welcome back! Congrats on the loss! We are dealing with the same snow you are, the city was crippled for weeks! On my way home from work on Christmas Eve it took me 3 hours!! 1 of the 3 buses to get me home was running, it was terrible! Luckily I got a ride part of the way :) -Aimee |
Bump!! ;)
Whats new ladies?? |
Drank a little too much tonight! Oops! Thats definitely not on plan!! But I feel younger for it.. lol... it was fun to go to the clubs again! Now I gotta sleep..
-Aimee |
Hows everyone doing?
Me, Im sore as heck!! I did the Wii fit yesterday and I love the Hula Hoops!! but daaaaaang it made my sides and back sore!! I didnt realize a childhood game was such a workout lol Do any of you use it and if so, what are your favorite games? |
:wave: everyone!
I decided to forgo the gym membership right now. I really DO NOT have the money or even a reliable way to get there! We'll see how my situation is in 6 months. Leonidas is doing okay. I think his hips are getting worse. :( I lost all the water weight from New Years Eve on my last weigh in but TOM started Sunday so this week's WI is going to be messed up. :dz: Work is depressing and a hassle. Just waiting on Mama to order my memory so I can start the second job and finally get some money coming in. I guess I'm back! :D |
I girls, just checking in.
Stayed home today and probably tomorrow as it's to cold for the school buses to run so Ryan has to stay home. This morning it was -49 C. Tomorrow looks about the same :( Hope you are all well! |
Hi everyone :) Just checking in also. Still hanging in there, doing Wii Fit, doing my WW and drinking my water. I lost 1.8 last week. Im excited to see on Sunday, how much I lost.
Well gotta go, Cody has a band concert this morning so I gotta get him up and ready (hes WAYYYY worse than a girl primping lol) |
hi guys!!! It's been way too long.
I haven't been doing much on my weight loss struggles so far. I promise, promise, promise to get back on top of things and back to posting. I want to see how everyone is!! Randee - wtg on your losses so far (and on hooking that bf! ;)) wendy - I wish it was too cold over here for me to go to work!!! Kids are so lucky!! shari - poor puppy!! what's going on with him!! aimee - how've you been??? I've missed ya!! tomorrow's the big day. I have to weigh myself and see where I am and start the ball rolling. I've already wasted 2 weeks of the new year!! No more!!! :wave: |
Glad to have you back Ro!!
|
Hey Girls! I am still plugging away over here, exercising almost every day, I've only taken 2 days off since January 1st! Gotta tweak the diet though, thats always the hardest part for me!
Rosario - welcome back! I'm doing pretty good, work is going good, things are good with Josh and I.. how's things with you? -Aimee |
ACK! 40 days till my trip south and still 6ish LBS to go....HELP!!!!
Have a good day everyone!I'll check in later. |
Hey everyone! So im still doing Wii Fit. I find it fun, so that makes me do it lol...Im eating good too..the only thing I have to work on is drinking that dang water!!
Ro-Thanks!! Losing weight is NOT easy! Thats why it helps to be here, around friends :) Thanks about the boyfriend too :) Hes one of a kind! Rob and I are going to start walking tonight. Its sooo cold outside but im not going to make any excuses! I need to walk and if hes willing to go with me, then heck, who am I to say no?? My main goal today will have to be NOT EAT SO MUCH CAKE!! its my sister AND my nieces birthday today!! And im sure my sister will have our favorite Banana cake from this awesome bakery down the road :( wish me luck!! Have a great day ladies! |
Randee, how did it go with the cake?And the walk? I know about the cold, it's still -44C here, supposed to warm up overnight though to -27C.
Well, I actually went on the s/bike tonight w/tension for 1/2 an hour so my legs are feeling a bit like jello. I'm thinking I'll hit the gym tomorrow, I have to hit goal even if it kills me! haha! Have a good night everyone! |
:wave: girls.
How is everyone doing? I spent the day thinking and trying not to sink and came to two decisions.... #1 I'm going to go ahead and file my taxes. This might not make sense to yall but it's a big deal for me. Last year was my first substantial return and I had to spend it all on bills. :( I swore up and down this year would be different. I was going to get the WAH job and get my bills in order so that when I did file my taxes, I could use the return funds on ME. Of course, my computer crapping out on me has changed everything. I either file my taxes and use the money to get my bills straight, or lose my apartment. This is really depressing to me because I next to never have any money to spend on myself. But Leonidas and I need a roof over our head and he needs to see a vet ASAP.... #2 I'm bringing back my siggy piggy bank. After I choked down the idea of using my taxes on bills again, I thought of what I wanted to buy most of all with that money (besides a car): a red Ipod. Oh, I'm still getting my Ipod. But I have to lose the weight to get it. $5 a lb plus whatever I save from resisting fast food. :dz: I need to get my Netflix back. I'm thinking of trying WATP. :running: Ro ~ So glad you are back! Leonidas is having major hip problems. Randee ~ How did it go??? Aimee ~ WTG on the exercise! I need to get back to it. Wendy ~ You can totally lose 6lbs in 40 days! |
Hello !! Man, is it ever quiet here! :(
Just getting ready to head out to the gym today!! =) and then get some homework done, busy week ahead of me again! Catch ya all later! |
Hey Girls! Still exercising! Actually exercising MORE! We bought a wii and a wii fit today, so far so good! Josh thinks he's going to use it too, so good investment! We got a little carried away playing just the regular games today, I think we played tennis for a couple of hours. lol.
Shari - I don't think of it as an option, I've been doing 30 day shred, I am on day 15, I've taken 2 days off this month. I don't count January 1st since I was hung over, heh. Good 10 dollar investment I think! I still use my tax return money to pay bills, I always say I'm going to use it for something else, but the responsible bone in my body won't let me use it for anything else. Hang in there, things will get better! -Aimee |
Aimee- first of all..I love your pic! I love the Wii Fit..its fun . I really love the Super Hula Hoop.
I didnt have ANY cake but we didnt end up walking. I watch my niece 3 days a week and she didnt get picked up till 8 :30. I didnt want to take her out (shes 4) into the freezing cold. Its been super windy here the last few days. So I just did a walking program in my house lol I lost 2.2 lbs this week! I finally broke the 240's! Im 239.0! I never want to get in the 40's again! It took me soooo long to get out of it! |
:wave: girls!
I'm feeling pretty good today. I did my taxes for the first time all by myself last night! :cool: I used Turbotax and got the email from the IRS this morning saying that the return was accepted and I should get my refund by the 30th. Thank god. Things seem to be (temporarily) looking up. :halffull: My eating was mostly on plan today. I did eat a little piece of a piece of cake at work and two miniature chocolate bars but at least I didn't eat the whole piece of cake.....along with another piece and another like I usually do. :o I followed my gut. It was lemon cake and I really just wanted to taste the frosting and I did! :D I've already guzzled one jug of water and I'm going to finish the second one after I get off the computer and settle down to watch The Simpsons. :) Aimee ~ I still want the Wii. My friend Sunshine has one and last time I was back in Bama, I played for the first time and had so much fun! We spent hours on Wii Tennis too! :lol: Randee ~ WTG! :celebrate: |
The wii weighed me today with a 3.7 loss!! Woohoo! I am excited with that, I have a pretty hefty goal to hit before Easter, so it's nice to see me getting on my way! No working out today, I slept in, I realllly needed it! And a day off isn't a bad thing really!
Randee - Thanks! :) You are the first person to notice and comment on my picture! I appreciate it! Do you use the wii to weigh yourself? I'm thinking of putting away mine, since the wii tracks everything. Shari - I got SO into tennis that I hurt my arm! It's just feeling normal again today. My muscles were aching all day yesterday! The wii fit is super fun too! -Aimee |
WOOOT! WTG Aimee!
|
Aimee- actually, I havent looked at the weight thing on the Wii..I just play Super Hula Hoops lol...maybe Ill go sneak on it and find out lol
Yesterday I ended up walking 6 miles! I did 2 miles at home [gotta love OnDemand] and walked 4 miles at a track with a childhood friend I havent seen since grade school! Im sore, but its a good sore!! Have a great day! Gotta eat breakfast! |
Hi everyone!!! Just checking in.
Aimee~ congrats on your loss!! I want a Wii!!!!! :( |
Randee - the wii fit age is the whole fun!! Everyday I do the weight, balance exercises and then you get the wii fit age! Sooo fun! They have a goal setting thing too. I love it!
Wendy - thanks! I got the wii fit because a gym membership isn't an option for me, and I think it was cheaper. So it was totally worth it for me. Like tonight, nooo way was I gonna make it to the gym, and instead I can workout in my pjs bottoms and a tank! Tomorrow I will be doing my measurements to compare again the beginning of the month. hopefully i'll have lost some serious inches, seeing as I've gained some weight! -Aimee |
Randee ~ Good job!
Wendy ~ I want a Wii too. I might make that one of my rewards. Aimee ~ I'm going to do my measurements on the first. I really should start keeping track of those. |
Shari - my measurements are the only thing keeping me going this month! I actually gained 8 pounds from January 1st!! So the weight loss I have on my ticker is from when I got my wii, I'm going to let that machine track my weight loss from now on. I did lose quite a few inches, and I sometimes look at the book where I record it and then keep at it.
I exercised TWICE today! woohoo! I am really trying to get this weight off, 26 pounds to go! I think with this diet thing I've been doing I'll see a loss tomorrow (the wii wants you to weigh everyday!!). So fingers crossed! -Aimee |
Wii tells me I lost another pound! Yay! If I keep this up I will definitely reach my goal! I can't help but worry that Josh and I won't be able to keep this up.. I am trying to be positive.. but it's in the back of my head. One day at a time!
-Aimee |
WOOOT Aimee!
So payroll took half of my check for medical insurance today. Seriously, half my check! I only get around $323 every two weeks (that's why I'm so broke!) and they took $148. I went to work early and talked to them, basically there was a screwup and they took out too much (duh!). We fixed it and the overflow will be (supposedly) posted to my next paycheck. If it wasn't for the fact that I should be getting my tax refund within the next week, I WOULD HAVE HIT THE ROOF! But I was like whatever and laughed a little. I also ran into Joe, the HR guy and asked him about anymore valet openings. The valet position is my only way out of nutrition and food right now. The only way! He looked me right in the eye and said 'You really want to get out of there, don't you?' No shyt! I thought I had stressed the fact that I need to get out of this department the first time I met him! :rolleyes: I'm just hoping that he can do the same thing he did for Louie for me and get me the **** out of that department ASAP! |
:wave: girls.
The last two days have been wearing down on my emotions, and it's seeping into my physical being. Right now, I'm fighting a mad headache and the last two days, I've been so wore out. Yesterday, it hit me right between the eyes that Leonidas might not get better. Then today, I took him over to Susie's because a freezing cold front came in and her apartment is way warmer than my own. We were talking on the porch when the vivid reality that I might have to put him down presented itself. I just broke down and cried. I don't want to put down Leonidas, I love him so much. He's happy, I see it in his face everyday, but what kind of life can he live not being able to walk? It doesn't help that my supposed BFF isn't around to talk to. I'm so sick and tired of having my feelings walked over, no apologies, I decided it will be up to her to repair this relationship. Of course, with emotional turmoil, I had to try to fill the void with food. Are you ready for this? In one hour I consumed: a Jalisco burrito, a pint of ice cream, a king size Snickers, a jalapeno cheese hot dog, and a pepsi. Epic fail. I'm sorry I'm so depressing, I'm only able to put on a fake happy face in person. :( |
Shari - sorry to hear about Leonidas, thats a really hard decision, I wish you all the luck with figuring everything out! We have to get you a new job lady! One of my part time girls at work was complaining because her paychecks were 700 bucks every 2 weeks, and I actually felt sorry for her! Now I do not! Are you working full time? Sounds like you are underpaid to me! VERY underpaid!
I am still puttering along here... weight loss seem's to have reversed, I had a few bad meals and made the mistake of weighing myself after a salty, wheat-y dinner (wheat makes me instantly gain). I am NOT changing my ticker, I am hoping it'll go back to the ticker weight by Saturday, and if not, then I will change it. I had to take a couple days off from working out due to some weird stomach stuff, but I got back at it yesterday. I keep trying to remind myself that it's 80% diet, but thats a hard one for me. Stupid food! -Aimee |
