Hi ladies!
I had been trying to get to onederland for a while. And I haven't weighed myself in about 1.5 weeks and it said I weighed 205 pounds. Then I went to the doctor today, and I weigh 194 pounds! So I'm there! So I think my current scales are waaay off. Because yeah, I spoke to my doctor about it and she said her scale is better than my wii fit scale and the other scale I use. So I had a really good day with some good news!!!
Hi Girls, I am having a bad morning ...it is one of my co workers birthdays today and we are all going out to lunch ...since it is her birthday she chose, well she chose my favorite restaurant, an italian place called Carrabas, NOTHING is low calorie there...even the salad dressings are homemade and full of fat...so I dont want to go , but I know if I opt out this person and maybe others are going to be upset...right now I think that my health and weightloss is more important than there feelings for the day...they will get over it, and if not who cares really ...sorry I am also having a bad attitude morning....
your thoughts on this ? how do you handle these types of situations? They come up frequently for me here at work.
I'm going to go ahead and hop onboard your onederland train. I'm quite a ways off right now, but you all seem like nice company... And who doesn't like nice company??
I've been on my little journey for a month as of yesterday, and I'm down 14 pounds so far. Trying to reach 245 by my birthday in a couple of weeks, and from there... I just have to chug, chug, chug along to onederland and beyond! I'm not following any specific plan, no calorie counting for me... I'm just trying to be reasonable. You know, proper portion sizes and all that nonsense! I get in my exercise here and there, Zumba being my favorite... And... Yeah! That's me!
Good morning ladies!
I am a daily weigh-in sort of gal, so I hopped on the scale this morning to see 251! Yeee! I only count Wednesdays, so it's not "official", but... I was excited.
Tonight will not likely be a good one. My sister's birthday is tomorrow and we're doing a dinner tonight... Of course for dinner she requested chicken and rice casserole(Which I don't really care for to begin with, not to mention the fact that's it's probably not that great for me!).... Throw the fact that I got enlisted to make her cake(I'm basically the family baker... No wonder I'm fat!), and the fact that there will be ice cream... Yep. I'm screwed!
Morning Girls...so great news, I am now at 215 with an even 20 lost !!! I was so excited about that Sunday morning that I ate like a pig all day and am probably up a pound today, but I am not gonna check, just work a couple of days to get it off Auntie G already knows this from my guilty gabbing on facebook, haha
Boy it feels good to know that i am only 16 pds away from 199 !!!!!! Onederland here I come
Welcome 9paw - good job on the loss - hope you did okay for your sisters bday, but hey, like you see above, we all have our bad days ...
Hi Arabella and Auntie G - come out and play lol
Okay talk to you all later, have a good day ...the summer heat is kicking in here, hot and humid yesterday, gonna be close to 90 today, and I am SO not ready for that yet ....
Still 251 today, but I'll take that considering last nights events! I didn't end up eating much for dinner at my sister's birthday gathering... Basically ate green beans and buttered bread! Which then led to going to Denny's late at night with the boyfriend... AFTER eating cake. And ice cream. Aaaaah!
But I'm back to trying to behave today, blah blah blah... What's funny is that my own birthday is coming up in two weeks, so that's probably gonna be another bad day. Or weekend. Whatever!
Congrats on the loss, Satine! Can't wait to be so close to onedarland!
Weighed myself as usual when I got up today... 250! I'm SO close to being back in the 240's like I was a few months ago, I can't wait! It's gonna be so freaking exciting. Yeee!
Hope everyone is doing well! Have a fantabulous day!
It's Wednesday, my "official" weigh-day... And I'm still chillin' at 250. Dangit! But I'm not too surprised, yesterday was kind of weird for me for food, and I ate a big bowl of cereal late at night because it just sounded SO good and I couldn't get it out of my head! Anyway. Hoping to get away from 250 soon.
Hi Carri! And all you others out there I've yet to talk to!
Being the daily weigh in person that I am, I'm pleased to report that this morning showed me the elusive 249! Will it stick? Who knows. I sure hope so!
Morning Girls ,.. well no weight loss this week ...I suppose it has to do with my over indulgin on Sunday... it showed me up 2 pds after that and it has taken me all week to get back down to 215 so I guess I just call this week a waste... Hopefully I will at least go down 1 over the weekend if I am really good, but that is gonna be hard with the holiday, 500 race ( I am in Carmel, near INdy ) and the cook outs ....
Ninepaw ( what is your first name ? ) - congrats on getting to the 240's ... I love it when I get into another set of 10 in the 200's gets you one step closer to the Onderland goal ...I am feel like I am so close yet so far ...last time I got down to like 205 and then started gaining it all back again ... cant believe I sabatoged myself like that when I was so close ...but I know we will get there soon and that 2010 is going to be the year for us !!
Arabella and Auntie G - stop back in and speak at us, haha Hope you are both doing well.
If I dont get back in here I hope you all have a great Memorial Day weekend and talk to you later.
Morning! My first name is Diana, just so you know now.
Well, this was not a happy morning in my little world here in California. I didn't necessarily expect my 249 from yesterday to last, but I was a little more hopeful than realistic... So I'm back to 250. Why me!? Ugh! Oh well. Guess I'd better make a point of getting to the gym today or something. Can't let this stick!
Carri, Don't call the week a waste. At least you got back to 215! That's way better than gaining more. Just keep at it. You can get back to 205 again, and then you can BUST right through to Onederland! I believe in you! This weekend is a big one, no question about that, so I would just stick to hoping you maintain through the weekend, or see only minimal gain. Don't make yourself crazy, just enjoy the weekend... As long as you come RIGHT BACK here when it's all said and done!
Hey guys! Hope you're all having a good weekend... But not TOO good! Haha
I did get to the gym yesterday and had a super awesome amazing workout! I felt awesome after, really really great... But I got on the scale today and my body seems content to stick with 250... So I went to zumba this morning. I want to see that number go down! I know it's only been a couple days, buuuut... I want it!
Have a safe and maybe moderately healthy weekend everyone! I know you all probably have plans. I do not. So I'll hold down the fort!!!
UGH. Up to 251 today, although at this point I'm pretty much convinced that it has to do with the exercising I've been doing the last couple of days, since my eating has been pretty great. I must stay calm, I must not get discouraged...
I decided yesterday that I want to take a stab at the C25K program! I've never been great with running, but the program seems very doable and reasonable. Bought some decent shoes yesterday, along with an app on my phone that will alert when to walk and run, and I am totally set to start as soon as I have some breakfast. I'm excited.
I'm also taking over this thread... Looking forward to hearing from you guys again once the weekend is over!
Hello!
