miafluker, woodspritechick, brat, Flawlesscube---- ALL OTHER LADIES- Hi!
Amany- Glad you are feeling better now. Yeah, WW is going really well. I have been walking a lot too, so I hope I will have some weight loss.
Sugar-N-Spice- Good for you workin' out! It feels really good to do that if you keep going. Aw those sweet cravings SUCK!!!! If I grab a crystal light I can squeeze by unscathed.
Hun.e.B- I have to clean my house too. Grr. We have 3 bathrooms and 4 males. I think that speaks for itself....
Butterfly50- Aw, I hope your kidd-o is feeling better. Kidney infections are not good.
u2girl-Yeah, this place is rockin'!
I'm truckin'. I'm about to get on the treadmill and walk 2 miles. I had the weirdest dream last night.I dreamed my husband had a mistress...but in my dream I couldn't care less about it- and I even drove him to her house to drop him off!!! My attitude was..., okay hon, have a good day see you later... Very strange. (That would sooooo never happen in real life)
Amanda, you are certainly welcome! I think that support is major in weightloss- especially with how much some of us have to lose. I know for me, the prospect of having to lose over 100 lbs is incredibly daunting! Knowing that I've got support from others makes it tolerable, not to mention making lots of friends.
Bonnie, I am so relieved your dd's fever broke! Hopefully today she just rests and gets stronger. I hope you will get some rest too, need to be able to keep up with the kiddies! LOL
I am relieved that the weekend is here. I am still SO sleepy. I had to snooze the alrm this morning before I finally dragged my sorry behind out of bed to get my kids up. I am really hoping that this tiredness goes away soon, its an awful feeling. It's so not like me to want or need to nap during the day.
Time to help dd with her hair so time to scoot. I will CBL after I get them all to school.
Good Friday morning everyone!!! Ready for a wonderful weekend?! Its all been a big weekend for me lately, I'm actually ready to get back to school and get a routine again. This waivering and floating through the days gets old!!!
Amanda...so happy to hear you are feeling better today!! Way to go for getting in some exercise despite being under the weather! thats some serious dedication to yourself!!! WoOHOO! I would love to have some rollerskates!!! I have roller blades but they are too hard, I feel like a big oaf on them...rollerskates I could do!!! What a fun idea!! I say go for it! That'll burn some serious calories! LOL!!
Danielle...fix that sweet tooth yet? Some berries with a little heavy cream with a sprinkle of splenda might do it! I dont even wanna mention the neighbors for fear it'll awaken the beast!!
Mia...you are absolutly right, there is no need to wait to start over, you can start over NOW!! Take back that control!! You are worth it!!
Bonnie...I'm so sorry to hear about your daughter. How is she today? I pray the hospital isnt in your future!! Its very good to hear that the fever broke!! Dont worry about chickfila, but remember food isnt going to make you feel better. We all turn to it though dont we? I sure hope today is a better day for you and your family! Way to go on the water!!! Keep it up!!
Elycia...how'd your day go? And the girls made it too? I sure hope so! I remember way back in the day having to leave my little one to go to work, for me lasted about a week and then I quit! LOL! I hope everyone made it through okay!
Aqua...I do NOT envy you on your bathroom duties!! I'm lucky to just have the 1 male to clean up after and he makes a big enough mess...I cant imagine having to deal with 4!!!!! Way to go on that workout!!! You are doing so great!!! Keep it up! Your dream is funny, I wonder if that means you are strong and self assured! LOL...I love dream interpretation!
Well I had another horrible day eating. Just lousy choices. I need to get to the grocery store and stock up on nothing but the good stuff and attempt to end this downward spiral I've been on lately. We went out to eat last night at our favorite wing joint. We love it there! And had the best time, our girls had us laughing so hard we were crying. No exercise for 2 days but I'm doing great on water!! 3 days of 100 oz!! I just might make 7 days yet!!
Have a fabulous day today everyone!! Anyone have any fun weekend plans?
Aqua, your dream was so funny, I have dreams like that once in awhile too where I dream dh is either married to someone else or has a g/f. and it's just like status quo, everythings fine..it's so weird to wake up the next morning wondering what the heck I was thinking. lol I hope you got your walk in today already and you're feeling good. Do you do online WW or just do it on your own type of thing? Have a super day chicky!
Melissa, today you start again and no more lousy choices woman! You know I love ya, you know how much I want you to succeed, I can't do this alone either. Stocking up on nothing but the healthy stuff will definitely lead you to success. You have the water down, and the exercise is coming along nicely...you're too far ahead of the game to not get the meal part right too. Just keep remembering all the reasons why you want this, you can rock this lady, I know you can! I'm so glad you guys had such a great time at dinner last night. Isn't it great when your kids can bring you such pure joy? I love it when my kids keep me crying from laughter! You know me, home with the kids, husband off working...same ol' same ol'. lol
Jest wanted to Drop in for a moment and wanted to say Hi and Thanks For Everyone on my Daughter when it rains here it pours My Other Daughter woke up this morning and she has Pink Eye. Another trip to the Doc.
Getting ready to do some cardio . I do want to say that I have to drink 6 Bottles a water a day and I have comsumed 3 and working on 4 . I gonna make it. Will check in later.
In 1988 I was at the dr's and weighed 128 pounds (15 yrs old). I was told that, because of my scoliosis to be very careful about gaining weight. The doctor told me to never put on more than 20 pounds. I went back in 1990 at around 160 - 165 and was sent to a nutritionist and advised to lose 30 pounds. Just what the heck am I doing to my poor spine?!
I haven't had my back checked in years, either. Actually I forget that I have scoliosis. I never think about it. I never have any back pain from it. The only problems I deal with is that I can't wear a purse with a shoulder strap. It will just slide right off and it doesn't matter what shoulder I carry it on. The other thing is that my tops tend shift to my left side.
*Sigh* I must lose this weight.
BTW, I'm going roller skating tomorrow!!! I was just thinking the other day that I don't like having to do videos on Saturdays. I don't like walking outdoors either (not sure why...). I'm so excited! I can't wait! It only costs $4 and lasts from 1 - 4pm. I can go every Saturday! Or Sunday from 2:00 - 5:00.
Hun.e.B- hang on, and even if you make poor food choices, continuing to work out will keep you from gaining, and you can still lose some, albeit slower. Yeah, I don't know what was up with the dream... I think it might have something to do with us seeing something on TV. This guy had a mistress and the mistress was all "that's my man". I told him if he had an affair I would sink my claws in and he would have to file for divorce...lol... I'm not doing the work for his mistake or something to that effect. I would never divorce him- that would make it too easy on the homewrecker..
Sugar-N-Spice- lol... I walked over 3 miles today. I have a headache, but it's okay. WW is going really great. I hope you can get a nap in today.
Hi Amanda! I hope today is going well for you. Makes any one wonder what the heck they're doing to their spines! lol Seriously when you think about all these itty-bitty bones haulin around my big butt!! I'd ache at the end of the day too! Did you see Celebrity Fit Club when the dr. dispelled that guy's (can't think of his name--he's a rapper I think?) theory that he was big-boned! Too funny!!! It's my knees and my feet that hurt all the time now, just miserable this achiness that happens. Are you supposed to keep up with check-ups for scoliosis? I just remember having to touch my toes in p.e. once a year starting in jr. high, and being freaked out that there was going to be something wrong. I am so excited you're going roller skating! I have not been in years & years. I was the regular disco queen back in the day, even when I was told I was too fat (I wasn't, looking back) to be on skates. I loved the way skating made me feel, not like real exercise either. I got to be a real daredevil tho around the neighborhood with my friends, broke a few bones over the years. I hope you have a super time!
Aqua, yay for you and your 3 miles!!!!! Sometimes I really wish I had a treadmill, I hate that my butt aches on the bike all the time. LOL I think once I start to lose tho that will go away...crossing my fingers anyways! Not holding my breath for a nap today...just too much to do around here, altho I would love one!
Where are our ladies??? Anna, Stacey, Laramie, Michelle...where'd ya'll go? Please drop in sometime and let us know how you are, we miss you guys, it's lonely without everyone's smiling faces!
Alrighty, well I'm off to the library to pick up a few reads. One good thing about having to wait forever for my kids to get out of class--I get to do lots of reading during the week and not feel guilty about it! LOL
Sugar-N-Spice- Thanks for the encouragment. I had to laugh about something though. For me, the bike would hurt my butt too, but the treadmill also bears a disadvantage. A disadvantage known as "inner thigh chap" It feels like there are two holes drilled in my inner thighs, and I probably look like this guy when I walk ~~~~~~~~> . There are definately workout advantages when you lose enough weight that your thighs don't touch.
Hello Ladies you know I was looking threw old threads and I discovered that I never introduced myself to all of you Well Here it goes.
My name is Bonnie and I am 36 Years old. I have three Children 1Boy 16 and two girls 8, 11. I have been married for 20 Years now. As Far as I can remember I have extra weight in my stomach. Needless to say It has only gotten bigger. I live in South Carolina . I am Originally from Wisconsin. I have two step Children and Now A grandama . One girl and 1 boy. Other then that I have been dieting all my life that I can remember . I am working on a change for my whole life . Not jest for the tiem being. I know I can do it if I put myself to it.
I hope that I wasnt too boaring their. I hope that everyone is doing well with the change in their life that they are going to accomplish their gaol.
So far everything is doing good my daughter is doing great it is like she hasnt been sick . Back to her old tricks again But I wouldnt have it any other way. Better get truckin got lots to do.
Seriously when you think about all these itty-bitty bones haulin around my big butt!! I'd ache at the end of the day too!
I only saw the first episode of CFC. I need to catch up! The rapper's name is Bone Crusher. Seems like a fitting name doesn't it?
I was supposed to have my spine checked every two years. I haven't been in 14 years! Never even thought about it until today. I have to go back to my regular physician in November. I'll get a referral then. So after my regular physician tells me I'm hefty, I can go to a spine twister who can also tell me I'm hefty. I remember a lot of doctors wanting to operate on my back. Thankfully someone advised my mother to stop taking me to surgeons. After that, all I was told was to do some back strengthening exercises and come back every two years. And not to gain a bunch of weight. Man, I haven't done anything I was advised to do...
Aqua - Fantastic job on the workout. Three miles! That's quite an accomplishment chicky! I'm sure it's a relief to not have to be on the liquid diet anymore.
Amanda, Yes!That's his name, Bone Crusher! I knew it was somethin silly! LOL So far in the first weigh in they did, everyone did really well. Its just sick what a reality junkie I am! LOL you guys have to watch the next episode of Gene Simmons show on A&E, looks like his "wife" takes him to some sort of health spa-hilarious!
Its a darn good thing nothing has bothered you in your back! I think its funny that you're already planning on what the dr's will tell you. LOL Guess after awhile it'd get pretty predictable, huh?
Aqua, HA thigh chaping! Forgot about that! I am thankful I don't have that but I remember when I was youger I would get it-- ouchie! Just think of all the aches and pains we'll be getting rid of! I cannot wait to wake up one morning and not have my feet throb horribly!
Bonnie, I seem to remember you introducing yourself here somewhere. Either that or I've lost my marbles! I knew about your kids and where you were from, etc. Hey, maybe I have esp! Its great to hear that dd is at it again. When mine are sick I'm always so saddened when they stop with the antics and over the moon when they start up--means they're feeling loads better!
I have been reading some posts about people who were so self concious that they are stopping themselves from living.
I'm not talking disability as in you physically cannot do the things you want to do but, not doing the things you want to do because you think you look bad and are too self concious to do.
I am a large woman. I always have been. I wear shorts. I wear sleeveless tops.
I swim. I dance and I live.
I guess it just saddens me that so many people stop living because they feel they look so bad, and start living when they have obtained a loss.
I just think you should enjoy doing what you like to do at any size.
Very strange. 
(That would sooooo never happen in real life)
You know I love ya, you know how much I want you to succeed, I can't do this alone either. Stocking up on nothing but the healthy stuff will definitely lead you to success.
