Angie, great about the taxes, I know it's a big weight that comes off the shoulders, I know when I went to do ours with the tax man it was such a relief! I think there were more child credits this year and the increase for the deduction per dependant was bigger? Anyway, I know how you feel.
They must have changed alot to do with taxes. Boy was I surprised and relieved because I didn't save a penny last year. YIPPEE now I can start the summer out not in debt and maybe I can try to sell my house and at least move farther out of town to get away from all of these neighbors. Of course we have everything we ever wanted right here but we hate the location.
My eating was so bad last night. I did cut supper in half but after the kids concert I got bored and I ate a quarter of Jays brownie and some microwave popcorn with spray butter and parmesan cheese and some crackers(about 5) with peanut butter. SAD!!! I didn't need any of it. I just felt like eating. I hate it when that happens. I have no intentions of baking anything in the bakery today so maybe I can stay on track and show a good loss tomorrow. My last peek at the scales(before I started to slide) was at 156 but since I have been bad the last few days I highly doubt it will be the same tomorrow. I should still have a loss but not the 3 pounds I was expecting. Oh well, suck it up Angie!!! My 12's are getting loose so that feels good and if I continue to eat right I will be in my 10's by the end of the month. Incentive enough??!!? I hope so!!
Anige you should know not to worry about the pms thing. You do great and I think you will pull through this just fine. Sometimes I have to tell myself that I am working out so I can eat some of these treats. Of course I have to be careful saying that so I don't go overboard.
Noelle good to hear that you are back on track.
I did it this morning, I got on the scale. I am only up 2 lbs. Thank goodness. I thought it would be worse that that. This will be no problem to get off.
I can't stay long today is like a Monday around here. I will be back later.
Hey Ladies! Just a quick one today I gotta run off and 'save the day' for hubby again. He forgot a concrete drill and he desperately needs it to start his job today. So I wrangled me a little detour to the mall w/some extra cash this morning after delivering this to him . I didn't even have to ask, he just said I'll give you some $dinero if you bring my drill. OK I won't complain about my job anymore this week. TGIF! OK I think I did well on damage control this week. I'm back down to 183 *sigh*. I am really REALLY happy with a maintain (can I call it that if I went up then came back down? )
Angie, you're doing great! Little nibbles here and there won't kill ya for the amount you're working out. You'll get into those 10's I'm sure.
Kempy not bad for over a weekend of partying. Those 2#'s will slide right off after a few days of eating clean.
Everybody else, have a great day--I'll check back later gotta scoot!
Hey there all,
What a day!!! When the boss is in, I am so busy, she finds stuff for me to do. Oh well I guess thats why Im here....LOL
Actually I love my job, I really do.
The food is all good with me still and the exercise too. Tonight is Evans bday party wish me luck. Dear hubby is gone for the weekend fishing so I'm all alone, except for Evan and his 3 friends. Alexis is staying at my moms thank goodness. I am taking the boys to the movies tomorrow, think we will see Kangaroo jack.
Check in later girls, have a nice night!!!
Hugs,
Sandy
We have been really busy these last few days. I think it may be b/c Mardi Gras is over. I also think it is b/c bathing suit season is coming and everyone is starting to freak out.
THE SUN IS OUT!!!! I don't think we have really seen it for a few weeks. I start to feel yucky when I don't see it very often. I am sure everyone is that way.
Sandy, wishes to Evan . Good luck controlling 4 boys during a party! We saw Kangaroo Jack a few weeks ago. Fun movie for kids but I have a hard time seeing "Vern-o" from Stand by Me (Jerry O'Connel) all grown up and skinny . He's kinda cute in a dorky kind of way.
Well TOM snuck up on me this morning, almost a week early. Hmmmm, what the heck is going on? Early, late, early, late. I guess my body can't get used to all the fluctuating hormones when the fat cells go up and down. Anyway, still feeling good and on track so that's that. I was wondering why my bodacious tatas were getting sore . I crack myself up...
Anyway, just winding down the afternoon and thought I'd pop in. Have a great weekend girlfriends.
I am down 2 more pounds of Butter!!!! I weighed in at 157 this morning. I'll check back later but I have to squeeze in a walk before my sister gets here to take the girls.
It would have been 3 pounds but I went up yesterday from 156 to 157 but now I know why! My period just started!!! YEAH!!! I was actually really pissed when I got up this morning and was still up. I ate only my 3 meals yesterday and exercised for an extra 15 minutes to balance out my splurge on Thursday. Now I know it was just TOM. I feel better.
My sis is going to the bar and wants Brit to babysit. I was looking forward to attacking Jay but now I can't. DARN!!!
Isnt that always the way, stupid mother nature has to stick her ugly head in and mess everything up. My dh has gone up north and could not have any fun with him before he left either cause of mine~~~oh well over now so we will have a hay day time on Sunday night.
How old is Brit? Old enough to babysit I take it. My oldest is now 11 today, and I have started leaving him alone a little at a time, but I still can't leave the 5 year old with him, they would kill each other before I got home. So this year I will have to put her in daycare 2 days a week when I work, my mil will take her 2 days and I only work 4 so that takes care of that.
Sandy
PS) the guys went fishing somewhere called Topsfield, so they wernt coming your way this time Angie. But I gotta tell him about your honey buns, you say they are as big as the plate? He loves honey buns and cinnamon rolls are his fav.
Brit is 11 too. She will be 12(oh my god is she that old already ) in October. This is her first time babysitting but my sis will be just up the road and I am about 5 minutes away.
I will take a pic of one of the honeybuns tomorrow and post it if you want. They are pretty big.
My kids are going to get Chinese today. Okay, I am having lobster and spaghetti(my favorite) so I am not too jealous. haha
I see you eat Lobster and spaggetti a lot. Do you buy fresh lobster or what? I mean my hubby is a lobsterman, but I don't even get lobster this time of year.....lol....
Yeah the age of kids, sure goes by fast. I never realized how fast.
Now a more personal issue, on your weight thing at the bottom your high weight is in the 260's, was that when you were prego or just large? I was just wondering. I mean I am striving to loose the first 100 and you just make it seem possible. I know it's possible, but so much easier when you know someone who actually did it.
. I didn't even have to ask, he just said I'll give you some $dinero if you bring my drill.
