I guess there is no bloating here! You will not hear me complaining about that. I am so happy about it. I feel so good today. I noticed that I have a little bounce in my step today. Maybe I should bring this energy home today. hehehe

You should have a bounce in your step!! You are doing great and you totally deserve to feel great! Go home and maul Joe with your excess energy and consider it a workout. haha

Turns out my flui s raelly my period. They feel the same way. I'm all doped up on cold meds,a nd it's cramps. Weird. I'm skipping aerobics. No sense in killing myself to get the energy to workout. Ican't handle intense exercise when i'm miserable with cramps. I love seeing the scale change though, so hopefully after my period, i'll get my energy back.

That is weird Chris. I have never heard of having flu symptoms due to cramps. At least you are getting better.

Hey gals, I'm feeling fine. Just busy, busy , busy. Yet not getting much done. I hate being in the situation that is affected by other people. I was sposed to make a buch of $$$$ this past weekend, doing tattoo work... But one guy wrecked his car a can't afford any work for awhile, and the other guy (BIL) is trying to fix his own truck so that he can get up here to the city.... so no $$$ for me. Of course I had already spent what I was counting on making (or at least planned how to spend) , but for now I drive on expired car tabs and get a late fee on the CC.
So I am working other ways to find cash. Making my wallets and stuff. Going to go try to sell them this afternoon. I think I broke my finger this morning. I was bending eyeletes on a choker and totally missed and hit the very tip of my pinky finger. I know that because it is the very tip, and I can still bend all the joints, there is nothing a doctor could do .... but it hurts sooooooo BAD!!! It's already blue from the base of the nail, around the pad and to the tip. Gonna make my nail look great for awhile

So anyway, I am going to eat some lunch and go to the gym. No weights today, OUCH , but I can ride a bike and do some eliptical... Maybe I will try some weights, just keep my pinky out like a princess
WI on Friday, I'm not losing like you girls, but I've sneaked a peek and know that I've broken my plateau. Yay!


-W-

Miss Washu, I am glad to hear you have been busy and not going through the funk so many are right now. Ouch on the finger. Jay sat on my thumb once and sprained it. That hurt so bad. Do you think you are going to lose your nail? You must be so happy that you broke your plateau. Yeah!!!

Geesh Chris, your periods must suck. I just get frisky when I get mine. LOL Hope you feel better.

Hey Washu, no wonder you don't feel like typing...OUCH! I feel for ya girlfriend. Tattoo work? Does that mean you do the tatts? How cool! (I bet Angie's getting all squeamish thinking about needles (heehee) ) What kinds of wallets do you make? I knew you sounded like a crafty person. Hooray on getting off that plateau. You go girl! Don't worry about losing like "us"--as long as you're going at your own pace, you'll get to that destination.

Chris, you're alive! Yeah, too bad Nyquil doesn't have the same properties as Midol then you'd be in top form. Ya know, my biological clock's been ticking rather loudly the past year or so...tickticktickticktick...(aren't I the oldest on this thread?) Well, the grayest anyway.


Tigger, err, i mean Kempy, still bouncin' on that high? I hope so. I like Angie's idea of 'home exercise' for burning calories--that's got to be one of the best work-outs. Ever figure out the numbers on Fitday? I've looked up the choices (i.e. time spent) for that "activity" but never had the presence of mind to actually TIME myself while doing it.

Tigger..haha that was funny.
Yes I did get queasy thinking about the needles. YUCK!!!! Remember I can pass out at the sound of the ear piercing gun clicking when my kid is getting it done. How pathetic am I? haha

Probably the calories burned depend on how "athletic" you are during the "activity" LOL

My gosh we need to get our minds off sex and food. Or just go get some!!!

You guys are so funny! I don't want to know the time length. That would look funny on my part....what are you looking at? I am trying to see how long this takes so I can record it in fitday. I am sure that would please him. lol

I think the day I start to do that is the day that I have officially become obssesed.

I had a great dinner and still stayed a little below 1500 cals for the day. Joe said that he was proud of me when i told him how much I have lost. I just hope it will keep coming off of me.

Yes, I actually do tattoos. Sorry Angie, I won't give any details now that I know your sensitivity. One of the BF's younger brother's friends is deathly afraid of ... those sharp things... but he still wants a tat. How funny will that be?....hmmm, maybe not so funny.
I make jewelry, wallets, and even a purse out of Duct-Tape. Sometimes I use denim for cosmetic value, but everything structural is tape. Oh!, I have made a mini-skirt too. sized it to fit myself, over a pair of jeans. Kinda strange, I don't know if I'll ever wear it.... I have plans for a corset soon too. A few shops in town buy these things from me and sell them to the public. They have sold pretty well so far.

Oh geez, I am past due for the B.C. 'til my Dr. appointment on Friday. Haven't really mauled BF since Nov. Wonder how many calories I can burn in a full day........

I asked my other thread this, so I'll ask you too: Does anybody have a low-fat or low-suger recipe for cookies? I want to make the guys a treat that I can enjoy too.

ohhhhh too much typing.
-W-

Congrats Kempy!!!!!
I've totally blown 1500 today. O-well, I guess it's been my 'off' day for the week.

Angie girl you better stay warm. I saw on the news that is was
-12 at 8 this morning. (I think that was the right temp)

I haven't gone outside yet. I figured it must be pretty cold when Candi won't even go out. haha

Jay said it was -13 this morning at 3 when he was delivering. BBBRRRR.

I just about froze last night. I was getting ready to exercise and was in my shorts and forgot I had to go out to the bakery and cut up a pumpkin roll so I just ran out in my shorts. That was a wake up.

-12?!! -13?!! BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!! That's eskimo weather! Sounds like a day to build up a roaring fire and just sit around and snuggle. Of course, anything below 60 is cold to me That reminds me, one thing I didn't like about being skinny (which was only for a brief period of time) was that I was cold all the time...lost all my fat insulation (haha). Have a great day girls, I'll check back later.

We are going to be cold here tonight too. It is supposed to be 23. That is very cold for us. I think I might actually have to pull some of my plants in. I know for a fact that we are going to have to run some water. That would be a mess it we broke a pipe.

Joe wants to go out to dinner tonight but I am trying to think of where we can go that I can get something healthy. He said maybe sushi but I don't eat seafood so I end up getting the cucumber rolls. Not really my idea of a dinner. I know we wont go to the mexican place b/c I know that there is no way in ##ll I can eat good there.
