Yes the Baby is my Granddaughter. Isnt she sweet?Its nice to be grandma(NANA) and Iam only 36.

Mia Yes tomorrow is another day jest keep going .


Heather for Question one I think it is a good Idea to have something that you can consider as a goal. Now 200.00 Im not to sure about that it is all up to what you can afford and how determined you are.
Now 2 to me it alll depends on how much you are looking to lose. If it is alot of weight you will probley have some excess skin
No3 You should be able to go to walmart and get them easy. It all depends on what you want to pay and what you will like to take the best.


Amanda I will have to check on the Leslie Pilates I have not seen that one yet. Yes I got rid of the Skittles I split them between the three kids. NO MORE SKITTLES I will have to check HArvey out to see what he is about when does he come on day and time. I will check him out.

Sara Yes I know I love that they have these printables I dont realy know how I would use them but they are neat to have on hand. I write everything down in a notebook. When I bought school supplies I bought me a whole case of notebooks for a little over 2 dollars so I used them .

As for the Question about who brings me down is my Friend I think she does it cause I was losing and she dont. All she does now is Drink. Thank god I live 2400 miles away from her now. ( She still does it over the phone)

Liz Yes I do have that manyTapes my husband gets mad and tells to get rid of some But I wont . Most of them I would not think about doing until I was more fit and trim its hard to do some of these exercise when your heavy . I bught most of them when I worked in Salvation Army no one would buy them so I did. I knowhat you mean about the celing I was their once I always made sure their was no one home when I exercised .

I wanted to share this with all of you tonight. I did my Leslie and I could feel muscles in my Buttocks that I didnt know I had. Then When I was walking tonight I could feel the muscles that I didnt know I had in the Back of my thighs. Man they feel good I feel like i have shrunk some I will remeasure myself on Wednesday to see the final score. Got to go hope everyone is doing great.

Bonnie - Your granddaughter is an absolute doll!
I just finished Leslie Sansone's Walk and Jog. When we came home from Rite Aid tonight, I wasn't in the mood for Harvey. Anyway, do you remember me telling you that the Walk and Jog would probably be a good next step for you? I no longer feel that way. Don't get me wrong, it's a very good work out, but you're probably already more advanced than it. I did with with 2 lb weights with no problem. Even though it doesn't call for hand weights.
I'm going to use it as one of my "light" morning work outs. You'd only jog in two minute intervals with it. I'm already jogging in five minute intervals - with my weights - when I do the shadow boxing moves my husband showed me.

Default Hey, Hey, Hey!

Hey ladies:

First day went just fine. This is just training. Thanx for the well wishes.

Aww, Melissa, sorry about that scale thing. I tell ya, that scale can be a blessing and a curse. I'm trying real hard not to give the scale too much power. It used to be that if it was up, it would ruin my mood and if it was down, I was on cloud nine. But you know that is really giving that scale too much power. Like Aqua said a few days ago, even if the scale doesn't reflect anything just yet, when you are eating healthy and being active, so many other wonderful things are happening. You are keeping a great attitude about it all and that is wonderful! Just hang in there!

Bonnie, I do have the WATP Walk Strong. Did the workout come with the stretchie? I already had one from some other workouts. Hope you have fun with those. I have watched Jillian on collagevideo.com and I knew that workout was a little too advanced for me right now. I will get there soon.

Today, I did Calorie Killer by the FIRM. I "Assassinated Some Major Calories". It is so funny when she says that. I was surely sweating, but I did the whole workout. I think i am going to focus on FIRM right now.

Now, I am missing my buddies Danielle and Anna. Where are you guys? I miss you.

Well, ladies, have a great evening and an even better morning. I will see you lovely ladies tomorrow.

Ciao!

Elycia

Hey everyone,

Does anyone listen to music when they workout? What do you listen to to keep you motivated and pumped up? If you could give me a few tips that help you, that would be muchly appreciated, thanx.

Sapphire, GET OUT! (I'm having an Elaine moment ) I didn't know you lived in St. Louis! So do I!!! Small world. You think you are here on the internet and everyone is so far away and you are probably around the corner. That's funny!

Also, are you kidding me, you have twins??? So do I!!! Wow!

Well, I decided to check in one more time and I saw that and had to respond. I will do the "Gettin' to Know You" segment tomorrow.

Ha Ha Ha Small world.

Good evening lovelies!! its 9:30 and I'm ready for bed already! LOL! DH was tired too, he went an hour ago. My leg has just been killing me lately. I'm gonna have to break down and see a chiropractor I think. I went today and did more shopping with my girls. They are getting closer to being ready for school. I splurged and bought myself a digital camera today. I've been wanting one forever and decided to just do it. Plus I ordered us a new 4'' memory foam mattress pad for our bed and a duvet cover. I got em from overstock and it said I saved almost $600, cant wait to get em! Okay I'm rambling! LOL! I'm determined to get caught up with you all tonight!

Aqua...I so agree with you about CFC, so spoiled some of these celebrities. I remember countess from a few seasons ago who ended up gaining weight over the course of the show and yet still got to win the prizes. that ticked me off. Everyone has excuses, and noone is gonna lose till you check them at the door. Myself included!!

Bonnie...I didnt get to say it before but WAY TO GO with those skittles!!!

Trish...gosh I'm so sorry to hear about all the tragedy that seems to be surrounding your life right now. Makes you want to hug your loved ones and cherish every minute you have, you just never know when its gonna be gone. about the milk, not sure if you have it in your area but its called Skim Delight by Viva. I dont like skim milk either but this stuff is really good. Its more like 2% but its skim. Not sure how they do it. My kids LOVE it too!

Brit....WAY TO GO!!! 5 lbs!! OMG! Thats just amazing! What ever you are doing is working..you are shrinking!!

Liz...YAY you came back!!! Glad to hear it was just technical difficulties! I was a HS cheerleader too...oh to be that size again! LOL!! Hey we can dream right?!

Elycia...I hope your first day of work was a smashing success and it is all you hoped it would be! You are so right, I've said it before but I'll say it again, scales are for fish!! Who needs em! LOL!! Way to go on that workout!

Kandice....I'm harder on myself about my weight than anyone else ever could be, but, my grandpa said to me this summer (after not seeing me for several years) "well your a big girl arent you" thats just his way. But my SIL once told me she wished for everyone sake that I stop overeating. Shes a peach!And then shortly after I had my first baby I was like 160ish, my grandma was going around telling people I was as big as a house. That one hurt alot. Guess we all have to have those kinds in our lives.

Heather....I am SO proud of you!!! Way to go saying no to the pie!! AND the coffee!! You are doing so great!!! Keep up the excellent work!! Just so you know, a large (16oz) iced mocha with skim milk and no whipped cream is only 180 calories. A nice little treat and you arent breaking the calorie bank!!

Lori...fluctuations in the scale are normal, and I heard on Oprah once that its a really good sign to even gain a little in the beginning of a weightloss plan. means you are building muscle! Make sure you take your measurements too!! You are doing GREAT!!! Keep it up!

Sara....GOODBYE 2 lbs!!! yay!! Way to go!!! I bet the inches are wasting away!!! Keep it up!

Amanda...you and your dh are so cute!! I just love reading your stories about him and what he does! You are a lucky girl!! Course I bet you already knew that! I would love to try some shadow boxing, I need to go back and read those core exercises you gave us too.

Awww...I'm jealous you guys get to get together! Danielle and I used to be able to do that...speaking of Danielle where in the world is she!

I think I got caught up! I hope anyway, not to do the survey! Have a lovely evening!

newpants- did you have a 5 year reunion? we didn't, I definitely want to go to my 10 year HS reunion- 2008 so I should be good by then- but even not, I want to go and finally show that I'm happy. Like to see what everyone did with their lives too. I know a couple of college friends grad from college and they are still working at Filenes or hotels as desk clerks and cashiers!

needhelp- I'll pm you my email. I bought a dress the last time I was losing weight- it's a red sparkly dress (kinda stretchy) I got off theknot.com forum I think when I was registered for the wedding- but it was only $25. size 10. DH promised he would take me out to a nice dinner and a night out on town- comendy connection or something and I would wear the dress. that was my goal and it was hanging on the outside of my closet and I looked at it everyday. I also had quotes and a 48 inch paper "ruler" to show how many inches I lost from everywhere. I was quite the inspiration. Do you have a pair of pant- jeans you want to fit into? I say don't spend a lot of money because what if you don't get to goal by the time, but it helped me to have something visual.
If you lose it gradual and yes, we're still young- elasticity, you shouldn't notice a difference in your skin. when I lost weight the last time I kinda had "reverse stretchmarks" if it makes sense to you- not noticeable to anyone but me I'm sure. but it was like place where I had stretch marks before- my hips, boobs, it was kinda indented and white. weird. Wasn't anything that kept me away from wearing a bikini or anything. and I wore a bikini on our honeymoon in March 2005 (never had a bikini ever- tankinis yes, but this one was a barely there! DH loved it!)
I'm taking the one a day weight control. it looks like it's got everything you need in it. Like I said before- I was just taking Tums for calcium, they taste fine to me- some people say they're a little chalky.

bonnie- yes she's adorable! only 36! that'll be like me- I was doing the math not too long ago, DS is 13 now- I'm 26, so that means in 7 years- hopefully not sooner I could be a g-ma. that's 33! DH and I are talking about adopting a baby girl and that's what brought it up- well, we have to get doing it soon or else that'll be just too weird! I know we're down south but there has got to be standards! DH is 33 now so he doesn't want to wait forever either- he thinks he's getting old. probably doesn't help with me making grandpa jokes to him when he snaps and crackles in the AM.
Bonnie- congrats about unhiding the muscles!

Trish way to go on working out with a group. just something I heard a long time ago- others aren't looking at you or judging you, most of them are worried about what other people think of them!

Pet peeves: people who don't take responsibility for their actions or half do a job. (silly- I'm the keeper of supplies in the office and someone (man) will just come in and get a ream of paper for the copy machine instead of taking the whole box and piling it up next to the copier like we always do- assuming someone else will do it- I've seen him lift heavy things before- no reason why he can't lift a carton of copy paper!)

Do you play the lotto:? scratch tickets only
Lucky number(s): don't really have any
If you were given 2 million dollars what would you do with it?: pay off all student loans and the house and cars. take a nice vacation for a couple of weeks and then put the rest in the bank. hopefully live off the interest and be able to quit my job and work at Hallmark or Walmart greeter or something- just to get out of the house but not because I HAVE to work.
What are your plans for the holiday?: staying in NC and then in Jan we're having a late christmas in Maine- DH and I don't get anymore vacation until Jan 07- his work is strict and won't let him borrow against it. and plus it's year end closing in the accounting office on Dec 26th- so I'll be busy working!

Hey Chicas!!!!!!!! i had my first day of school and i'm scared!!! ive never taken chemistry before and now i'm taking college chemistry!!!!!!! oh well ill get thru it. if i make straight A's this semester and lose weight i get a big prize from my grandparents! its kinda sad having ur grandparents reward you when you 20 but hey, its either do really good in school or take the change of not doing so good and getting a job. Anyways, something strange has happened to me. over the last week or so my appitite is GONE!!!!!!!!!!!!! i mean i barely eat and im not really hungry. 2 meals a day (small ones) and i'm good. i dont have cravings, or anything! oh well i'm not complaining. I was going to start Slim in 6 this week but i have to go home this weekend to get my comp fixed. plus i was going to order this 2day fast. its a shake that you mix up and it helps get rid of toxins so you can lose weight more easily. ive been told that it works and its only 20 bucks. Anyways besides that my great grandpa is in the hospital. we are basically waiting for him to pass. he is 93 and its time. anyways i need to get going. i have 2 classes today and i'm a lil nervous. Ill do the individuals tonight tho when i can really sit down and read everything fully. have a wonderful day!!!!!!!!

Good Morning everyone!! I love reading these surveys!

Amanda I forgot about liver! EWW! LOL! Way to go on that workout! I need to feel the ab burn!!!

Kandice...you are doing GREAT! Have fun with those stairs today!

Brittni...I took chem 151 a few semesters back, it was rough, but luckily we had a professor who was all about volunteering and he'd give extra credit whenever we did it. I ended up with almost 100 points in just extra credit. Just stay on top of the lectures and you'll be just fine!! You can do it!! sorry to hear about your grandpa, our grandma is in the hospital too right now she fell and punctured a lung and has a few broken ribs. So sad to see them get old isnt it?

Alright, I'm running behind again, I had intended to make flyers for the school this morning. I've got to go meet with the principal today and get PTA stuff rolling for next week. Have a fantastic day everyone!!! Drink that water!! I've been horrible lately and I'm gonna pick it up bigtime today!! CHEERS!
