Hi chickies!!
I got a few rides in this last week - but the rain is back today. Spring is in the air...

DH has been on a get off the pc kick lately - he kinda has a point so I'll keep this short.

Workouts have been great, food intake is getting there. I finally decided to kick my beloved slow churn ice cream out of the house for a while. It was out of control....we'll see how long it takes me to brave buying it again. It's just a little too good. I haven't really gained weight - but I wanna lose this last few to see where it gets me.

Jukie - so you got a ride in!!
Holly - a pound is a pound, girl!!
Harleymom - holy crap your DH is hard core!
wannabe - WTG getting right back on after you dropped your bike. all part of the learning experience.
2Fru - you rock those pink gloves!!
andrea - WOWSA!! 10 pounds?

good morning bikechicks! Hi Gina, yay to you for continuing your great workouts! and for kicking the ice cream out of the house - I don't even want to know what brand it is and LUCKY you for riding

I had another good day yesterday, YAY. And got to add to my already-done exercise, when I bundled up and trudged through thigh-deep snow (not kidding) to get to the sides of house and garage, to use a roof rake to get some snow off.

Holly thigh high snow yuck! We have finally had a few good days of warm weather and the great melt down has happened. The 12 foot deep pile in the front of my house is gone! Now we get to deal with all the gravel.

Jukie it was too cold for riding. Maybe today would be OK, but the wind chill is still up there pretty good. I am getting to be a big wimp about riding in the cold. Save it for warm weather, even though I miss it!

Wanna Be there are those of us who have done and those who are going to do it. Good for you getting back on and going for it! Practice and more practice!

Jill hope your having fun in the sun! That cruise is right around the corner!

Gina glad you spent enough time on the pc to drop us all a note. Good on you for tossing the ice cream!

Reb hope the loss is great this week too!

2 frus kick some rear! Darn cager's!

Well chick Keep on Keep'n on and have a great day!

good morning bikerchicks!

Yesterday I shopped at WalMart, HAD to buy some new jeans. My others are so worn they're gonna rip, and It would probably happen at work I got two pair of Faded Glory bootcuts, size 12. I am looking forward to when they get loose! (aren't I optimistic). Really, I would love love love to be an 8.

I was completely on track yesterday with eating and exercise. However I shoud have had more water.

Hello to everyone and stick to your plan!!

Hi ladies..

Was wondering if you mind me joining you? I've been on 3FC before, but am a wayward sheep.. my old weight loss group broke up.

Wannab- I feel your pain. I did exactly the same thing when I started out. I even sacrificed my body to save the paint job. LOL! Even worse, did it right in front of 10 harley's and their owners. (I was on a honda 450) I thought I would die of mortification. They came over to see if I was ok, though.

Sorry.. some background on me. I started out at 203, got down to an amazingly awesome 145, had some kids and now I can't get below 165. My goal is 135. Currently I ride a Suzuki hybrid GS500. I didn't think I'd like sport bikes, but it really grew on me.

Welcome SuGyong! That is funny about crashing in front of a bunch of people. Whenever a bunch of people are standing around watching is when crazy things happen. I think I am so cool and then whamo I kill it or can't get it started. I like the sports bikes but there not for me. We ride 600 miles in one day or more sometimes and the upright smooth ride is the only way to go for me. I love my Harley!

Holly Good Job staying on plan. Congrats on the new jeans. New cloths always make me feel good! I love the Faded Glory from Walmart! I get the dark color boot cut, makes them a little more dressy. Love the little strech they have also. I also wear a size 12. I would love to wear a size 8!

Well all TGIF! I am having a meeting tonight with all of the folks where cruising with in October. DD are going to a sweet 16 party, they are doing swing dancing they got the cutest dresses for it at Ross!

Hi to all and have a great on plan weekend! Keep on Keep'n on all you hot biker babes!

welcome SuGyong!! of course you're welcomed here Syracuse; do your winters last as long as Vermont's?

Hi Harleymom! it's kewl to think of us in the same jeans I loved the $11 price also!

guess what, only 10 1/2 weeks until we leave for Myrtle Beach

I am feeling so good about everything. It's been a while since I've felt this good. I sure hope I'm not going to have a crash Maybe it's sensing that there is light at the end of the winter tunnel. And I am feeling SO very good at keeping on track and seeing the scale go down gradually.

bye for now!

Happy Saturday, Chickies!! Welcome SuGyong! Hope you'll find a home here with us.

Looks like lots of good stuff going on here while I was gone...weight loss, new boots, new jeans, Chicks out there riding! YAY!

Holly....you, Reb and Wannab are on fire! Congrats to all of you! Yep, Harley...our cruise is week-after-next....ALREADY! We leave here the morning of March 8th. Back the afternoon of the 19th. Your cruise will be here before you know it...and planning is 50% of the fun!

We had a fabulous ride to Clearwater/St. Pete....we rode a total of 320 miles. What a great 2 day mini-vacation! Am posting a few pics. The first one is of Clearwater Beach and all it's colorful cabanas. The water is really pretty there and the sand is sugary & white. The second is the sunset that evening. We were sitting at a tiki bar and Captain Morgan was there too! The view from our hotel window is the third pic. The Palm Pavillion Inn is a small, beachside,(mom & pop) retro, art-deco-type hotel and the rooms are $120.00 a night! ON the beach! Couldn't believe it. I love to take pics from the back of the bike....so the next one is our ride to St. Pete Beach and over the Skyway Bridge, which is the last pic. Those are our riding buddies in front of us. We had a really fun 2 days.

Hope you all are able to get out there a little this weekend....we'll probably ride tomorrow. Today's a catch-up day for the usual household stuff....AND it's gonna be about 80, so I'm taking HH to the pool for some snorkeling lessons, since 2 of our cruise excursions are snorkeling trips!!!

Happy Weekend, Chicks!

Oh my gosh, WHY don't I live down there!?????!!! thanks for the oh-so-Warm-and-beautiful-Blue-skies-and-sugary-white-sand-gorgeous-ocean-pics!

Was the third pic sunrise or sunset? look at that beautiful pink tint. What a nice mini-vacay, Jill!

Me and hus went to a little get together at a friend's house last night, so it was the first night I wasn't on track. I had a big margarita, a Smirnoff Twisted, a few chips and dip, a mini pizza, then some *special* brownies. This morning, it was a hard call what liquid to go for first...water, coffee or eyedrops! Back on track today. No more parties for a while!!!

Hello to everyone! have a great day

It's the sunrise from our hotel window. It was soooo pretty & PINK!

Glad you had a fun get-together, Holly...and that you're back on track this morning

Hope ya'll are having a great weekend....Harley....so sorry you've had MORE snow!!!!

Thanks for the welcome!

I'm on track with my diet. It's interesting, though. For Lent I gave up everything not on my diet. That way it's incentive to not cheat.
LOL! God will strike me down if I go off my diet! Giggle! What can i say? It worked last year!

I'm not sure about Vermont, but I know NY winters end about 2 or 3 weeks before it does in Maine (where I went to college).

Making this a quick post and I wanted to say hi!!!

Don't know what is going on but I'm not getting notification of the posts. It is really starting to drive me crazy. Good work everyone. Glad all is well. Will post more later.

Oh and Febuary is almost over so it is just about time to set new goals. Didn't reach mine this month though I came close. I want to reach March's though. I want to be in my jacket the hubby got me.

Down a pound today. Yay! I almost went on a total binge, but I popped a piece of gum in my mouth and went somewhere else to do busy work until it went away. Whew! Close one.

Hey all, Jill thanks for sharing those great pictures! It looks like some place you just want a drink the size of your head and a lounge chair relaxing kind of place! Holly you crack me up, love the brownie statement. It sounds like your staying on track and feeling good, you go girl! Wannabe glad to here from you. Good for you on the goal to fit into that new jacket! You can do it! Sugyong good for you going for the gum instead of the binge!
