Hey everybody, I ordered my computer today. They said it should ship out on the 19th. Before long we will be chattn' at night and the weekends. I can't contain myself!
I lost 3.5 pounds this week!!! My total lost so far is 18.5 pounds!!! I can't wait until I hit my goal.Of course it is raining outside so I guess it is the treadmill today. I enjoy being outside so much more.
Hi, I couldn't get the site to come up last night so I didn't get to post. Anyway, I cleaned my living/Dining room last night, and the kitchen tonight, so I'm feeling better about the mess.
Oh, guess what! I did not drink ANY regular coke today. That is way to cool, because I usually live off the stuff.
Work is starting to get busy again, so that will be good. I hope yall are all doing ok. Nighty Night.
I've been tossing around the idea of getting a pedometer too. But then I got my treadmill, it got cold and I stopped walking outside! But I think I'll get one in the spring when I come out of hibernation. I have a thing on my bike that keeps track of your speed, distance and time and I love that. I find it very motivating. So I think I would like having a pedometer. I like stats. God bless you with the 1 & 1/2 hours a day! That is devotion. Right now I'm doing an hour a day, six days a week. I'm hoping that for matenance I can do 30-45 mins 4-5 days a week. Does that seem realistic? I have been in and out because of computer problems. My sister gought a new computer last week and my dh has been trying to network them together and it has been a complete disaster. I've had no internet access most of this week. I'm getting a bit testy! Angie, that's neat with the birthdays. We have something similar, mine is Feb 3. My son is the second and my daughter is the first. It's a very expensive month!! On another note, has anyone ever ordered workout clothes from Junonia? I'm thinking about getting some bike type shorts a sleeveless tee of some sort. If they're worth the price, I was thinking about ordering from them. Anyone know anything about their quality? Thanks all, have a great week!!
Wow, I glad we're all doing well. I would love a pedometer, expecially since I read a book about fitness walking, and it said I should be walking 3 miles per day. 3! I usually walk about 1 mile through the neighborhood, and by the time I get home, i'm whooped, not sweaty, but tired. I was thinking, I walk the dog.. that's how I walk. I wanna get a CD walkman, so I can get a fast paced CD, and walk faster, maybe a few times without the dog... then I can get more of a workout. She kinda slows me down.
Took my friend wiht me to aerobics, and am so glad I didn'thave to skip. SHe's here for outta town, and I begged her to go. SHe fumbled all over the place, bu tshe says she gotta workout, so that's great! Loved the company.... and now I know what a true friend will endure for me! Ha Ha!
Still on track. Staying at 170, which I think I wanna start upping the intensity of my exercise, and keep losing. I love my look now, but I'm afraid if I sit here at this weight for long, i"ll start making excuses when I start gaining. And I will start gaining. I can feel the motivation waning.
Gongrats on the weight losses girls! Keep up the energy, and dont lose faith.
Oh, I"ve seen the Junonia catalog, and I"m hesitant to order from a catalog, the shipping kills me. And, you never know about the sizing. I'd rather go to a thrift store, or wal-mart. I'd kill for some great Yoga pants.
Must be a Computer-Buying Frenzy around here! Yee-Haa!
I have ordered from IN-Sport. Their stuff in kind of exspensive but it is a great quality. I order it to sell here at the gym. I love the stuff I bougt. The stuff has a wicking material that takes the sweat away from you skin. I don't know about you guys but I get very sweaty and I hate it sticking to me.
Ugh. I would just like to say, that if any of you have a really stressful day, Don't order pizza for dinner. I am sooo sick. Not to be gross, but I've been on the pot more than not tonight.
Work and kids had me so stressed, and i said, Fine, I'll eat. Bad idea. One good thing is, hopefully all the pizza is gone now and will not have had time to soak into bigger fat cells. TGTF! I'm supposed to go to "ladies night" at mom's church. I hope the meal is bland, and lowfat (You think it will be at a Southern Baptist church? Those women love to cook.)
Well, take care girls, and beware the pizza belly monster!
Well, the dinner was definitely NOT lowfat. I think I hit between 2600 - 2900 calories today. I'll be ok. I'll try to be really good tomorrow and exercise too. My throat is really scratchy, I feel like gagging. I can't even say 1 word without that gag reflex kicking in. Makes keeping the kids under control very hard. I hope it isn't going to be strep AGAIN. That kicked my butt about 2 months ago. Night Night.
I've never been able to count calories, or to know how many calories I"ve eaten. I"m better with guessing fat grams. DOn't worry Jenni, one night of being bad won't stop you from losing, if you continue to eat right the rest of the week, and exercise. Sounds like you're heading for sore throat, so you'll probably be in soup soon. DOn't push yourself to work out when you're sick. That makes it harder for your body to recover. Just read that somewhere.
My friend from college left last night, after a fabulous dinner with her family. My hubby came along, and chatted up with a cousin. Looked ilke he could've been a Soprano. Scary!
I haven't walked in two days, and I'm planning to be busy wiht a ham dinner tonight at church. SInce I"m serving, it'll keep my hands outta the food. Hopefully.
Southern Women --- mom is one. Eat honey, Eat! (her words)... I"d be fed so often, you'd think I was on infant feeding schedule! Ha Ha! Good luck.
I ate too much again. Well actually I didn't EAT too much. I drank too much regular coke. I was lazy and didn't want to make lemonade or tea. I DO have a cold... ugh.
My kids were really bad (mostly my boy). He won't listen to me. He's so stubborn. Nothing I've tried works all the time. And I can't seem to figure out what works when. Anyway, I had a meltdown and called my mom. She came to my rescue and took them to her house for the afternoon. I cleaned and vacuumed my car, went to WalMart and cleaned and vacuumed my room. I also made the Caramel Apple Bread pudding from the online cookbook here, and when my folks got back with the kids, I gave them some.
We all loved it, and it's only got 1 gram of fat!! Woo Hoo! And NO artificial sweeteners. Praise god for unsweetened applesauce. I'm a jabber box tonight. Adieu!!
Good Morning! I've had a weird week, first had a friend visit from college, wed-friday night. She taught me about scarbooking, so that was consuming and I'm hooked! Went to Wal-Mart, and started scrapping college, then shifted to this summer with mom and sister and nephew. Totally distracintg for everyday life. I forget to eat, hardly watched TV. Really great hobby, and I know I"ll stick with it.
Didn't walk Thurs-Fri. And ate regular.. meaning ... pre-diet stuff. But, then yesterday (saturday)...we set up , cooked, served, and then cleaned up, a Ham dinner for a little cancer child. Kept moving, on my feet, and now I"m achey all over. I was so hard to get to sleep last night, my feet hurt once I stopped moving!!
I"m counting that as exercise, definitely. Today, I'm gonna take along walk, and then do nothing.. after church. Ta Ta!
Before long we will be chattn' at night and the weekends. I can't contain myself!
