  • Chris! LTNS !!
    Hello to everyone Let me tell yall who I am, I have been here before but took a break for awhile. I'm Chrissy, 40 year old Mom of 3. I started off here in Feb of last year and lost 46 lbs, but my husband was diagnosed with melanoma and well I'm a major stress eater, and I ate...gained back 20 lbs that I lost..My husband still has a lot to go threw but I gotta get this weight off, so I can be his back bone, ya know? What good I am if I'm sitting here stuffing my face and not helping him out.....so here I am, eating a cookie cuz I know starting Monday, yes Monday I'm back in full force. I am going to give myself 1 day to chill, and that will be Sundays when I get home from work, I work 5:30 am till 3 pm....then my hubby and I watch the race and drink our beers LOL! My oldest daughter needs to lose some weight also, we both were at the Drs on Monday, so I'm gonna get her here too, hopefully she can find someone to talk to and help her achieve her goals.
    Anyhow I have rambled as usual. I look forward to seeing yall again and meeting the new girls. I hope you all are well and have a fantastic weekend..I'll be here every single day again, I gotta do this for me, and my kids and my husband...
    <----tired of being the fat funny friend ya know?
  • Hey Chrissy! Yah, LTNS....glad to see you back. How is the family doing? I'm sooo looking forward to seeing more posts from you again.

    Well not too much happening today. I'm working on my homework. I have a few assignments due today. We had to go to school today to watch Kayla's play for first grade. They did fairy tales so she was the narrator for one, Chicken Licken for another, and finally Goldilocks. She was too cute.

    Well just a quick check in. I better get back to my homework so that I'm not stuck here all night. Check back later.

    Kids are good too, thanks for asking How is everyone on your end? Was Kayla all excited about her play or was she nervous? She must have looked so cute Alot of homework left for you? How much longer until you are done with school? Probably seems like it wont be done soon enough huh?
    Well I am getting ready to go to work, then I'll come home and straighten up the mess the kids made while we are at work LOL Then someone is coming to buy a pair of our lovebirds (we breed lovebirds) the babies are all 7 weeks now and ready to go....I'm sad but glad at the same time...its extra money for us, plus I love our birds
    Check in with yall after awhile.
    Have a wonderful day all
  • I am going to school to finish my grade 12 diploma

    I just stepped on the scale and am at 200 even.. almost in ONEderland!
  • Hi I was wondering if I could join in, Im a mother of two boys. Both in preschool. And Im currently trying to lose the rest of the baby weight that took me three years to get motivated to lose.
  • Lady Jackl...of course you can join in. Man, what I wouldn't give to be in your weight range. My name is Chris. Mom of 3 girls...12, 6 and 3. I work part time, am a full time student and totally stressed lately. Looking forward to hearing more from you. If you have any good ways of staying motivated...I'm all ears!

    Jen-YOu go girl! Get that diploma!

    Chrissy-So glad to hear that your all doing good. Kayla was just a little cutie in her play. I recorded her first acting job...lol. For this year, I only have 5 more weeks left of school. For my degree, I have one more year left. But I'm thinking about switching to getting a Bachelor's degree. I'm not sure if I'm that ambitious though. The last few weeks have been so stressful. I guess I'll have classes like that every now and then. The worki is challenging..which I love but also very time consuming.

    HI Carly! Hi Ellen! How are you two ladies doing?

    Gonna go to bed I think. I'm soooo tired.

  • Good morning ladies,
    I'm up, getting Logan breakfast, going to have myself some cereal and a cup of tea and head to the gym for an hour
  • Well I have two boys that are 13 months apart 3 and 4. Im a stay at home mom. And I gain almost all my weight with my boys Im lucky it wasnt more considering my 3 year old was a 10 pound 2 oz baby and ended I up with gestational diabeties while preg. Ive been reading though your guys post and you seem very supportive, Im having a hard time getting the last of this weight off, pretty much the rest of the weight I do need to lose is in my belly. I just started some aerobics 30 min a day on top of my two one hour 3 miles walks.
  • Lady-I'm having a hard time getting the belly stuff to go away too along with the love handles on my hips. I've been working out in a gym and lifting weights so my arms and legs are getting pretty toned up but the rest of me is just...YUCK!

    Hi Jen...How did the gym go? I was only able to get there once this week. Too much stuff going on. I'm overworked, overwhelmed and overtired....

    Hey Ellen and Carly! Hope the weekend is going okay for ya all.

    Chris
  • the gym was great.. did 40 mins of cardio and the circut

    we are heading to my sister in laws for supper tonight.. she is making chicken and ribs.. lord give me strength to not over eat!
  • chrily I think the first places I lost my weight was my thighs and my boobs. Some say the last place you put it on is the last place you lose it but I dont know when I got my gut or love handles. How is everyone planning on handling easter? with the food and the candy and such... Im gonna have a hard time not eating that chocolate easter bunny that my mother still insist on giving me every year.
  • Good evening ladies!!

    Welcome to lady!! and welcome back to chrissy!!!

    This weekend was good, but busy. Did not go to the gym, but it was so nice out we had the family over and played baseball in the yard. Don't worry we were only hitting the wiffle balls(practice). I did feel better throwing, I just hope my arm does not hurt tomorrow.

    With Easter coming up, and all the stuff we (DH) does for the church choir, I am hoping I can make it to the gym twice this week. We will go tomorrow, and I am going to try to get there on Thurs. We also have to get some yard work done So that will be my work out on Wed. Easter should be fine if we all make it through the week.

    I have to get to bed, the letters are dancing in front of me, and I can't see.

    ((hugs))
  • Okay..Chrissy, Lady, Jen, Ellen, and Carly...How are you all doing today?

    What IS everyone doing for Easter? My plans are still all up in the air. I can honestly say that I won't be eating much candy. I work with the stuff all the time...it just doesn't have the same appeal I guess. My sister has invited us over to her MIL's house but my husband is so famiy phobic when it comes to my side of the family. So I'm not sure what's on the agenda.

    I went to the gym tonight with my sister and did 15 min on the elliptical, 15 on the crosstrainer and 10 on the recumbent bike. Came home and gave Nicole a breathing treatment. Yep, she's sick again. Her breathing is off and she's wheezing. Not sure if its a virus or if its allergies. Tis the season for that too.

    Tomorrow I turn 35. OUCH! I'm getting old. Real old.

    Gonna check on ebay and see what's happening and then go to bed. I'm all curled up with my laptop right now and Nicole is laying down beside me.

  • I get to drive two and a half lovely hours down to terre haute to visit my mother and father. My mother always cooks all of her food southern style meaning lots of fried and fatty things Im gonna have to bring some things of my own to snack on hope they dont take offense to it. Still gotta run out and buy my boys some easter candy and toys, Ive been procrastinating.

    Gonna try and do 30 minutes of aerobics today I can usually only get up to 20 before I end up winded. Walk my 6 miles of course, and do some free weights.

    Oh and happy B-Day Chrily...(and 35 isnt that old )
  • Happy Birthday Chris!!!
