  • I am still here. not doing well. nicky stressed me out again todya but i did not snack like i normally would. I can't exercise cause i have a sinus thing going on thats in my lungs so jumping around isn't a good thing right now. But I did walk the dog this afternoon while it was nice and went a little bit further. We do what we can.
  • Sheila!!

    Karyn~Great job not snacking!! I bet your doggie loves his walks too!!!

    Sandra~I will check out that thread. Sounds interesting and a little fun.

    I did ok yesterday,but I did have seconds at dinner. I had to work, and DH got off to a bad start, so even though I got home early dinner was not done, so I helped him out and together we got it done, but I was starving when we finally ate. I am hoping for a good weigh in today even though it is not official, but I just finished with TOM and hopefully some of the water weight is gone. My plan for today is to drink 64oz water no snacking and to get my laundry done.

    Later chicas!!
  • My dog loves his walks and i enjoy it too. its a nice quiet walk. my area is very quiet at night even at 7pm, not much going on, but its my way of getting out of the house and not having to deal with nicky. i love my son but he is a handful. By the way I am caughing up a storm now with this sinus thing going on so i iwll just stick to walking the dog for now.
  • take care karyn. I hope you feel better soon

    Dh and I did it!! We joined a gym. We took the kiddies to see the kid play area, and they did not want to leave!! I am so excited. I am going to go tomorrow afternoon to work out. I would go in the morning, but I told DS that I would wait to take him with, that's how excited they were!!! I am really looking forward to getting into it again. YAy me!!! <<unfortunately this is what I will look like
  • Congrats! I am proud of you! I will tell you I walked my dog even further last night. I made a higher calorie meal last night, lite lunch and i can't recal breakfast oh yea and a few bites of my sons cookie but i did walk further!
  • Did I forget to mention that I had secconds last night at dinner??? I had a rough night because of it. I am still excited, but I am going to lay low this morning.

  • Hey ladies, I haven';t been weighing myself and taking care of myself, but i have beeen trying to cut back on junk food and i am down 1/2lb so hopefully that iwll be a whole pound by friday weigh in.

    I haven't been exercsing but spring cleaning like a crazy lady. i think thats how i lost the 1/2 lb cause i cleaned my kitchen floor last night. i even moved the table and wiped the woodwork around the floor. Anyway I am trying I have 2 months to get as close to my goal as possible.
  • Hey Karyn ~
    What can we do to get ourselves back on track? I have all the good intentions in the world, but never come through for myself. Ugh.
    ~ Sandra
  • I know....I'll kick you're butt and you kick mine!!
  • Ladies! I keep losing posts!! I will have to try later. ((hugs))
  • i am all for that.
  • Good Morning ladies!!!

    Karyn and Sandra~Let's move it!!!I know you can do this. You both have motivated me before. We can do this together!!!

    I have been doing pretty well. I have made it to the gym 4times since we joined. I was going to try to go Sat but I had to get to work early because the other girl was coming in later. so I did not get to the gym, but ate well all weekend. Sunday DH had baseball practice and we took the iddes to the park. It was a little chilly Around 45ish, but they did really well. We walked around the park (1-1.5mi) then during batting practice they kept missing or tipping balls backwards, so the kids and I were throwing them back in. One of the guys said I had a "nice arm". Although I almost hit the manager with one odd throw. Luckily he khows how to duck!!!

    Yesterday At work was a nice pace. we recently switched doc's and it was slow coming, but now people are accepting him and coming in. I was home by 7:15p which is nice.

    Goals for today: Drink 64oz water, clean kitchen, do laundry, and exercise for 1.5hrs

    Later chicas!
