I'm up 1/2 a pound too. Dh wanted to order pizza last night and I guess I over did it a little. Going to up the exercise and see if I can still get that one pound off by Monday......Can't give up yet ladies:carrot:

hey lorra!
dont sweat it its just water from the salt in the pizza.....thats why i gain every weekend too bc i eat pizza on sunday nights. you didnt od it unless you had more than 2. did you? do you blot the grease first? it lowers the pt value. btw: 2 sl=12 points

I didn't blot ..will remember that next time. It was thin crust and I had six small squares I found a points for restaurants site and figure out it to be 5 points per 1/8 of a pizza so 15 for everything....WOW thats a lot I know but I didn't blow it to bad last night.

hey guys

good for you lorra yeah i 1x read that blotting it dry cuts 5-10g fat off per slice. tonight i will have some. might go to pizza hut so theres no leftovers(personal size)
im so sick of this rain!

I am up this morning, so there you go, I have to figure out how to fit the gym into my new lifestyle (workin woman...) I love it I have been singin that song for 2 weeks......
t

I didn't make the challenge...Better luck next time.

Andrea- how was your weekend?

Tara- :lol: I would say fit a small workout in whenever you can if finding time to go to the gym is a problem. Maybe take the baby for a walk....if you do it before naptime you bring home a sleeping baby.

mornin ladies!

how goes it? my weekend was ok it rained all weekend and its raining today...yuck. im up 1/2 too im shocked it wasnt more bc i didnt work out nearly as much. am hoping i wont yo-yo this week the way i did last week. i still cant figure out why. it was like no weekend gain, dn 3/4, up 1/2 dn, up, dn.

tara- you can balance it i know you can! lorra gave great suggestions. i guess ill be swimmin indoors again tonight.
lorra, new week new 1 lb challenge go for it!

woohoo......down to 238 :carrot: Lost the half pound I gained and another pound:D I will go for another pound by Monday:jig:

We've been getting a lot of rain this week as well Andrea. We have a hurricane coming for us too:eek: My inlaws are flying out Friday for Ohio..well I should say trying to fly out Friday if their plane isn't cancelled

hey lorra!
congrats wtg!!!! im dn a lb also which leaves me 1/4 abve where i left off last week. im gonna be attending group meetings sooner than expected i think bc i had a close call yest and barely made it through.

be careful of that hurricane!!
braces friday....lets hope theyre right!!!

woohoo Andrea braces on Friday that awesome news. I sooooooo hope they are right for you this time:hug:
Friday is when we are supposed to start getting the affects of the storm. If you guys don't hear from me for a while after it's probably because our power is out....and could be a week or two before they fix it.

thanks lorra for the support. i need it. no one believes im gonna get bk to my old clothes:(

Hey good for you A!!!!!!
How wonderful you all are doing. I feel llike I have abandoned you two and our work, I need to adjust to this and get moving. I am trying to get a pedaler or a pusher, you know one of the things that you can do under your desk, do you think that will help???I am going crazy, there is not enough time in my day!!! I am working in the town I live in this week so I can make it to the gym 4 times, versus 1!!!!!
Can I get you to repost the core list , I think maybe it might work for df... How is that, you eat as much as you want off the list? Anything can get eaten with anything else???

Hi there ladies

woohoo Andrea..thats awesome:carrot: get carried away girl Thats wonderful.

I need to get my butt back on the straight and narrow. Need to get shopping I'm not eating as good as I should be. This post helps alot ... need to make sure I come here at least once a day. This week will be a stressful one I have my niece and nephew pretty much all day (8am-9:30pm) until next monday...Love them to death but THEY DON'T LISTEN. Which I'm not the mom so I can't correct that just have to handle it as best as I can ...wish me luck:eek:

mornin ladies!
hi tara!!! we miss you but we understand:) it can be hard to ajust... ill mail you that info...eating is until comfy full....not all you can eat, big diff:) anything may be combined but certain things are only 1x a day and cereal must be eaten w skim milk.

i think i know where you can get one of those things. lemme chk it out.

hey lorra!!!
you can do it girl i know you can! didnt have the best weekend but coula been worse. up .6.

got my 20 lb reward a little early cuz i went shopping yest n bought a new pr earrings.
thanks for the support ladies ((((( ))))
if we put our heads together we can kick booty!!!

tara: i found what you needed really cheap in a catalog.. i hope it helps:)

Just EARRINGS I hope your getting something else for all that hard work :yes:

I'm up two pounds but I know it will come off quick once I start drinking more water. I need to get those two pounds off quickly so I'm not back tracking. Not sure what kind of exercise I can do this week with the kids...I will think of something;) Our Storm never turned into a hurricane....it was still a TS when it hit. School was canceled most everyone had the day off. Well everyone but retail most stores stayed open. That was night I got off track ..we thought our power would go out so we started our Hurricane party off eat all you can before it has to be tossed. Haven't been completely off track but I can do so much better.

lorra you are way to funny!!!
youll lose it dont worry!

dont worry: actually the truth is i bought a new watch yest @ kmart plus a few shirts besides the earrings and i almost bought another pair today but i cant wear posts.

i give myself a reward for every 10 lbs. plus i bought a subs. to first mag as a reward for the 1st 10.

tara are you still on cinnamon caps? i started taking carnitine and cayenne and i ordered q10, and an amino acid complex.

Woohoo ANDREA you worked hard for it :carrot:

You guys were the ones that were talking about cinnamon. I was taking them (caps) for a while ...really not sure why I stopped but I heard it was also good for PCOS helps with the sugar somehow. I should start taking it again have a whole bottle full.

thanks lorra:)

i though it was tara who did that? he he...gonna try it again?
well i may end up in the brace office again tomm....

Tara was the one that started using it ...I believe...I will start up again and see what happens

Awww Andrea what's up with the braces now? maybe they are to big because you lost all that weight??????

lol lorra! nah they do fit its just the way the heel is constructed. we called and we may or may not go today it depends on what freakin time my sisters hme depot guy comes to fix her door so for now we have to play it by ear.

good luck w the cinnamon!
whats up tara?

im dn 1/2, but still up 1/4.

Hey you guys, I was doing cinnamon, but only in my coffee, I didnt take any tablets. Hey if it works go for it. I was naughty yesterday, my moms birthday, took her to friendlys.......yadayada, not steppin on the scale this morning!!!!!
But I am gettting to the gym 4 times this week and am trying to get a walk exercise thing in off the tv on demand, of course I have 4 chapteres and 4 essays due tomorrow, so who knows.
Have a great day you two!!!
Tara

Haven't made it to the scale yet to weigh in but my mother in laws scale showed me back at 238...hopefully mine is as friendly. I took one cinnamon cap yesterday. The bottle says two but I will work my way up to that....will let you two know how it goes.

Tara- Way to go getting to the gym this week. I can't wait to be able to go again.

Andrea- Glad to hear the braces will work for you this time. Congrats on the book. I didn't know they had a contest like that.

hi gyts!
tara: i SO know what u mean thats why i been stayin away. youd die if u knew what my usual there is!!! yumm!!!!!

thanks lorra goin 4 shoes today bf the chiro. theres a sept contest too::)
scale not my friend this week so far.... im up 1/4 so im up 1/2 from sat.

hey guys havin a really rough day.....

hey guys yest was really really stressful. im so tired bc when im that stressed it physically wipes me out. had a 'whoosh' this morning....dn 2 lbs. i only pray that it does stay. it may not bc i accidentally starved it off. yest was so busy that lunch as super duper late and i found myself on babysitting duty @ the last minute so didnt eat dinner so i had very little to eat.

Down two pounds too for the same reason...... don't get to much time to do much of ANTHING....don't want to eat kid friendly foods bc of all the fat. Still not a loss though as that was the two I gained ....Hoping I lose another so I can record a loss for the week. Come on 237:carrot:

Hope your day is better today Andrea....I'm actually kid free until 2 today WOOHOO:D Congrats on the the pounds :crossed: it sticks.

hey lorra! whats up? enjoy youre lid free time! im much more relaxed today so thats good. inm just chillin out i just put my braces on i wanna see how long i can tolerate them. the shoes went on w/o much of a fight. got a good deal too but i look like bigfoot cuz theyre heavy and they also are technically bigger than i need but the stupid store...a specialty shop, didnt carry any other velcro except one and i hated it so i went w 1 size larger than i really need but the brace takes up alotta space so not too bad.

heres to you losing one lb for the week! for themoment, my 2 puts me at a 1.6 loss for the week so we will see

wwoohhoo!!
 

:carrot: :carrot: Yay!!!! Finally in the brace business!!! Great Andrea. Regular shoes wouldnt break in to fit? :hug: Just a thought...
Tell I am at 202 this morning, a loss but not really its the weight I put on recently. Anyway I have been doing a walk aerobics at night, I enjoy it, an I am sleeping better!!!!
Have a great day ladies:carrot: :carrot:
