Robot I've been OP since Saturday as well. We must be psychically in tune to each other. Unfortunately, I have not gone to the bathroom since early Sat, so I have not lost any of the water weight. I've been on Vicodin for the last week because of a car accident, which always backs up my system. I just drank some senna tea, so hopefully I'll lose it soon! lol

PeatrixPotter - That's awesome. We sending positive vibes to each other

Hello All! I have been out of town and not exercising and eating way too much of whatever I wanted... so yeah, it's gonna be bad this Friday. I couldn't weigh in last week obviously and I must admit, I was glad not to have to do it. I know I have gained several pounds... I gotta get back on track!!!

ok i did it, i made 2 stickk.com commitments with money stakes haha. not much but still i dont want to lose any money. $5 per week per commitment for 4 weeks.

I've been in hiding. I ended up with a UTI this week. Bleh. I just had my annual pap last week and had my cholesterol checked. In the 4 years since I had it checked last I've dropped it from 202 down to 149! I do need to lower my triglycerides a little but a little extra flax should help.

237.1

I'm at 213 this morning!

We're going out with friends to a Mexican restaurant tonight and looking at the menu online, it doesn't look terribly veggie friendly. They do have a vegetable burrito, which will probably be ok without cheese. At worst I could order the a la carte chips and guacamole.

zinkemomx2-how does flax lower triglycerides? Mine are a bit elevated too. Congrats on lowereing your overall cholesterol! That's awesome.

haleygirl-nice to see you back! I checked out that website when you first posted about it; it's very interesting!

UrthWurm-I like the new avatar too! Isn't Photoshop awesome?

Well, I guess I'd better go work out before I eat my weight in guacamole!

Have a great Friday!!

Hope you feel better ZinkeMom!!

Today Weight: 156.5 (Grr better be wrong lol)



Don't forget to weigh in!

171.8

zinkemomx2 - that's great news about your cholesterol! Too bad about the UTI, hope you're feeling better soon.

I'm running Crazy Legs tomorrow morning, a very popular 8k event to support Badger Athletics. However, I have a 10 mile training run scheduled, so I'll be running another 5 miles home. I won't even get to enjoy my complimentary Bud Light after the race, so sad for me.

omg i gained weight. i'm up to 147 again. that sux.

I'm at 198.

Oh Ive missed you girls! Ive had a really difficult last 2 months with my Grandpa dying and my great grandma falling down stairs and being hospitalized for a month....Anyway, It feels nice to FINALLY check in here again and getting in on the next challenge again.
My weight loss, needless to say, has taken a huge backseat to my normal life and Ive gained a few pounds although Im not ready to admit that on my ticker yet. I start a new class on Monday and Im super excited about that.
You ladies all seem to being doing fabulous with your weight loss! Im proud of you all!
Anyhow, Im glad to be back. Talk to you guys soon!

my weight is 256,
I have had a bit less appetite this week due to a horrible virus I have been battling.

Wow, we really don't like to post on the weekends, do we? I hope that means everyone is out doing exciting things!

I had a pretty good weekend. I did not eat my weight in guacamole on Friday, but I did drink a margarita as big as my head! I really didn't realize how big they were when I ordered it. But I only ate half of my veggie burrito and about 3 chips. All in all I felt pretty good about the night. And I had a lot of fun, so it was totally worth it!

zinkemomx2-thanks for the info; I'm going to buy some flax on grocery day!

Jasmine-I hope you're feeling better.

erinmagill-I'm so sorry to hear about your grandfather. I hope your grandmother is doing ok. It's hard to stay on track when all that is going on.

Anyway, I hope you all had a good weekend. Let's make this a great week!
