Hello ladies :)
Had another good day today- I'm really starting to feel like this is going to be "IT"
I really like the WAAP vidoes too- I have the 1,2,3 miles. I love the 1 mile for when you need to get a workout in...it's not too hard, but I still feel like I've exercised. I agree Ginny, they will be great for winter.
Do any of you have treadmills? The one I want is $2000 *on sale* so it may be awhile!
Jen- I can't remember what you do for work? Are you a nurse? Not sure how I would do working nights and coming home to my crew! kudos to you!
Melissa- "this too shall pass"- really! My little guy will be 5 months next week and I am in serious shock! It goes so fast. Sorry to hear she's a bit colicky- is it getting any better? The sleeping will come too...
Spryng- how was your day with your 3 little ones?

All my kids are in bed and it's so nice to have some quiet time! Hardly ever happens around here!
Well, have a nice night!
Emily

Good evening all!
Emily it is so great to hear that you are enjoying being OP. It does take awhile but then it just feels routine. And good for you to get in your exercise. I don't own a treadmill but I want one really bad. I want to jog and run so eventually I'll have to break down and buy one. Maybe next year after we add on to our house. I'll have to wait and see. And my day went great with my kids, thanks for asking. Sometimes they can be difficult but today they were all really good. I bought my two older ones some play dough at walmart that came with little cooking utensils and molds to make chicken legs, pizza, ice cream, etc. So they sat at the table for over an hour tonight pretending to be great chefs! It was so cute. That was the best 5 dollars I've spent in a while!! :)
Ginny, take it easy with that knee... you don't want to damage it further and not be able to walk at all! I know.. you already know this. :) I just know you'd be so miserable if you couldn't take your daily walks. And I'll miss hearing about your WI tomorrow but I understand not wanting to WI because of bloating and water retention... let me know how the meeting goes!
Mel, I hope Myra starts sleeping more for you soon. How old is she now? Time is going by so fast now. For all of us.
Jen I hope you got what you needed to done in your house. And enjoy your time with family and your kids!
Oh, Ginny don't worry about getting that magazine for me... I ordered the subscription today so I'll be getting it here pretty soon. I'm so excited about it too.
Well my day has been good. I did my bike tonight instead of my workout tape, I wanted to take a day off from the weights, I've read that our bodies need a day to recover and adjust. So I upped the resistance on my bike on both the arms and the pedals and boy did I feel the burn! Doing 20 min about killed me!! But I feel great now. I'm relaxing in front of my computer with an avocado mask on my face waiting for it to dry. I found that all this exercise I've been doing has broke my face out a little so I'm giving it some extra attention tonight.
Well, guess I'll get off here. Oh! I forgot to tell you that DH is coming home for 4 days!! he'll get here friday afternoon and leaves out wednesday morning. I'm very excited to see him but also a little afraid it may make my diet a little difficult. He is not a salad or stir fry kind of man. I'm going to have to be really careful. But he's happy that I am on WW and I know he won't try to get me to deter while he is home.
Well, gotta go wash this mask off... TTYL!

Good morning gang. :)

Spryng, Great news about your dh! 2 days longer than you'd expected! :D It sounds like he is very supportive, so I think your eating will probably be fine while he's home. And, I may be wrong, but I don't think you usually use all of your allotted points anyway, right? So, you have some room to breath. :)

Ginny, did you take that extra walk? Hope the knee is hanging in there for ya. :)

Emily, I am a student nurse. I work 3 nights/week... 2 are always weeknights. I also attend nursing school.... going for my RN. Glad to hear you have been OP, and you are getting workouts in, too.... keep it up! :)

Mel, hang in there, hon. Sending sleep vibes to Myra.......

Karen, how are you? Life must be busy!!

Michele, hanging in there, too? Hope you are feeling well. :)

Well, I had kind of a "bad" day yesterday...... I did not exercise, and I ate tater tots with my dinner. In the grand scheme of things, my eating wasn't overly horrible, because I really hadn't had much to eat all day. But I felt terrible after dinner, and even when I woke this morn. It's amazing how awful junk food makes you feel after you've been eating right for awhile. I also had a bit of an "emotional" day yesterday, so that did not help things.

But, I am better today. I did my 2 mile WATP tape this morn, and it felt GREAT!!! :D I am really liking those tapes. I am definitely going out today to pick up the WATP w/ abs series. I also had a great breakfast, and I am headed out to the store this morn to pick up some healthy food, plus stuff for dinner tonight with the in-laws. I did not get my house picked up yesterday, so I will be doing that this afternoon. Obviously, I've scrapped our plans for the fair with ds today...... it's just too busy with the in-laws coming tonight. But, we will go tomorrow instead. :)

Well, better get moving. Have a great day!!!

Morning,

Well, as they say, "When it rains, it pours". Myra caught my cold, so I moved up her 4 week appt. from tomorrow to today. Maybe that's why she isn't sleeping much? She just isn't feeling too great.

Emily, thanks for the reassurance, the colic seems to have improved a bit, but with a cold and her not sleeping, it's kinda hard to tell!?! But I do look forward to getting some sleep again someday!

Spryng, yes, time goes by so quickly once they're here! I keep wonder, how 4 weeks have passed by already!?! And I'm sure you feel the same, about little Tanner, they grow up too fast!

Well ladies, we're going get ready for Myra's DR. appt. I'll be back later!
