  • hi everyone,

    i know it has been a long time. just everything is crazy right now. my MEAN ol hubby did a very nice thing for our daughter. she has a boyfriend that lives in NY we are in IN but my hubby is a truck driver and can pick him up when he goes that way. anyway she had asked if the boyfriend could come for a week before school starts and her dad said no but then suprised us all by having him with him when he got home. MEN do have a nice side just wish they could show it more often. LOL

    now on to me. i had a bad couple of weeks +1 1/4 and +1 3/4 but now have gotten back on track. so far so good. am on vacation this week so that always is harder for me. but it is a new month so a new begining. hope you all are doing ok.
  • [COLOR=DarkRed]Bearzy- U can do it don't give up... Yes hubbys can be sweet sometimes COLOR]
    We had to take our puppy to the er late last night she was acting really sick she got some kind of virus and she started puking this am… So I slept most of the day. Then James took me to get my lab work result and then he surprised me by taking me to lunch. We had Mexican food it was yummyyy…. I haven’t exercised yet today but I will I think ill do my slim in 6 abs routine and maybe some jump rope or resist training..
    Well talk to u girls later,
    Heather
  • Hello Everyone.. Heather.. sorry about the pup.. hope she feels better... Hubby is soo sweet.. I wish my hubby was romantic.. Peg- you can do it.. don't give up! See.. your mean ol' hubby has a soft spot! He probably just thought about it on that looonnng ride. Jamie, Sue, Diane.. Come Back!!!! We MISS YA!! Are yawl' out partying without us!

    So....I forgot to update my day so far. No.. I havent exercised yet. I already had a SMALL frosty from Wendy’s. But no biggie. I took the kids to the park.. But it started pouring down after about an hour.. It was hot out there though. Now it is pouring down raining.. But the sun is beaming…South Carolina has the weirdest weather ever! I guess I’ll exercise later…. Well I want to exercise later. My daughter acts like she’s gonna take another nap… maybe I wore her out at the park… if it wasn’t 20 miles away.. I’d take them more often!! Anyways I better go.. I’ll try to update later tonight… Hope everyone is having a great day!
  • hey all!!! just standin here at work being bored as usual.....went to the gym this morning and am making a habit out of it.... walked a mile on the treadmill at an incline, did the circuit room and did a half mile on the bike..... good enough workout for me.... we went out dancing this weekend again, and it was real fun... anyways hope you all are doing well, Jamie
  • Puppy doing a little better. She puked once today we take her in tomorrow for her 8weeks shots. I however, am now puking up again Hopefully the doctor will call tomorrow and say it just my meds are to high and to lower them and that will make me feel better.... I hate being sick and feeling depressed...I did do my 12minute ab workout today Im needing a new video I want the WATP 3mile power walk but wal-
    JAYMI- Frosty sounds good. 20miles from the park is a long way...
    Jamie- Great job on getting to the gym...
    EVERYONE ELSE HELLOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!
    Take Care,
    Heather
  • Hello all! Well today is just starting for me really… I’ve been up for maybe an hour and a half… decided to sleep in today…. No exercise today… yet. No exercise yesterday. I don’t remember drinking any water either! I want to go to the pool or something today. No beach with that stupid hurricane or whatever that is. That weather totally sucks… The sun is beaming again.. Right now.. But I know that at any time…. It could start pouring… My hubby cut off all of his hair!! Woohoo!! I wanted to show him how much I liked it…. but… my daughter never went to sleep! At least she didn’t before we did! Ha, ha! She wont sleep in her toddler bed now..but we are gonna change that! Sometimes I think I’ve got a split personality… but maybe not! I had terrible, terrible nightmares again last night…. They really bite! I think that is a big part of my problem… now if anyone can tell me how to get to the route of THAT problem… I’d be happy to oblige! I’ve tried the stupid medicines from the doctor.. But they don’t work. So of course when you have a sleepless and bad night.. You wake up cranky…. So sorry chickies! Anyways we got about 10 bucks in our checking account… but I sure wanted to go buy me a swimsuit at walmart.. They are on clearance for 5 bucks! They are like a cotton-like material though… wonder what would happen if they got wet…hmmm… I’m just thinking that the boobie part won’t be enough room! Probably not! My favorite swimsuit broke at the beach.. Did I tell you all that?!? But luckily I caught it before my boobs popped out! I want to fix it… but it has that stupid plastic thing.. I was sooo blessed…. I had some safety pins inside of it… So for any of you with a two piece.. Always put a safety pin inside of the top just in case… I kinda like going to the beach… there are people there that you might say are too big to where a bikini! and there are people that are too skinny to wear a bikini!! So… who cares… I don’t… no cute guys either! Just my ol’ husband…(which is a cutie.. But doesn’t count!!! ) who doesn’t even pay attention… so no reason to be embarrassed! At least I could care less! Anyways….. I might go write a check…. Walmart usually takes about a week before they cash them anyways!! I’m so bad!!! I’m a baaad girl!!!! Well anyways I better get to doing.. Something! I need to get a move on because I gotta cook today…. Anyone want the recipe?!? It’s supposed to be a kid based recipe.. It sounds weird.. But I though.. What the heck…

  • Jaymi- I hate when that happens to bathing suit i never thought about putting a pin in it though. Hey our banking account is in the hole. OH well. my bathing suit top is like a cotton material it didn't shrink or anything i like it better coz it doesn't get as tight and show off ur boobies as much... We took dizzi(puppy) to vet to get her 8 week shots she is doing better. I ate some soup and haven't thrown it up so im happy bout that.... talk to u guys laterz,
    heather
  • Hello chickies! Well trying to start off early so that I can start off right. I didn’t end up exercising yesterday. So.. Today is a new day. I got up early, fixed hubby some breakfast and lunch, and… well at least I thought I’d get a early start. But.. The baby has arisen! So I gotta put off my exercising until later… which means it probably won’t happen… But oh well, who cares. I got a lot to do today. It’s the grocery shopping day.. I didn’t eat too bad yesterday… I did journal at least! This stupid AOL has frozen up on me once already. I had made a pre-planned schedule for the week with my exercising, but today I’m just going to do whatever Denise Austin does. I haven’t exercised in 3 days, so the schedule doesn’t matter too much right now! My knee is killing me! You’d think I was too young for that.. But it hurts. Oh well, I’m not letting anything stop me. I have to make my menu for the week. I have no idea what I’m going to plan. DH doesn’t seem to like much of anything I’ve been trying. But I like it.. So maybe I’ll try to get something even cheaper this week and incorporate a couple of TV dinners into it. I don’t know. I can feel the crankiness arising in me because when I thought about 3 days without exercising it really ticked me off. I probably will see a gain this Saturday for weigh-in. And it is all my fault. I can’t blame anyone else.. I could have exercised for 20 minutes.. But I just didn’t. Being lazy is not good. I should know better than that!! Today is a new day… and I gotta get on the ball. No more whining, and complaining… etc. I just gotta do it! I’m not doing what it takes the get the results I want… and I can’t blame anyone but me.. So Jaymi.. Shut up and get back on track!!! I will come back later for personal comments and to update…I guess I’ll just watch Denise Austin for now. I just decided to list my short term goals.. For today…

    Exercise for at least 30 minutes today

    Drink WATER!!!

    Don’t spend too much at Walmart!!!

    Stay off of ebay!!

    Don’t let the negative attitude win… try and stay positive.

    Well I’m hoping that just typing that will help me along with my day… Anyways I hope everyone is having a great day!
  • Hello chicks! I got in my 60 minutes of exercise. It was hard though.. My knee is really killing me. Which seems weird since I hadn’t exercised in like 3 days or so when it started hurting. I didn‘t do anything else… so I wonder what it is! And with all the ice-cream I‘ve been eating.. You wouldn‘t think calcium would be an issue!! Boy have I been craving those Frosty‘s from Wendy‘s. I almost bought some of those no sugar added fudge sickles…(that doesn’t look right!) but I was scared I‘d get hooked on them. But heck.. That‘s gotta be better than nothing! I also LOVE banana fudge pops… but they don‘t come in the f/f… or s/f. Well at least not out here anyways. When I take that swimsuit top back, I‘m through buying swimsuits.. Unless they go on sale for $3 or $1.. Then heck.. I‘ll sell them on ebay or something! I‘ve noticed that a lot of people buy clearance items and sell them for more…. Or get more when people start bidding on them. I guess that‘s legal… hmmmm. Anyways I‘m tired as a dog. I can‘t fool around on the computer today, I have to do some housework. My DH said that we were supposed to go to the beach with his friends.. So who knows.. They might end up coming over.. So I need to prepare instead of getting mad over it… Besides.. If I kept my house up better, than I wouldn’t have to clean it so drastically when we have company… AWWW who am I kidding… these kids dirty up constantly. Is it tax-free weekend anywhere else?!?!? Now that could be more trouble for me…. But the baby does need some more pampers.. It‘s tax-free on everything right?!? Anyways I will try to come back later and get personal… have to start getting stuff together now! The store will probably be packed!!!!! Talk with everyone later!!!
    ~Jaymi
  • WHERE IS EVERYONE??? I hope you are all doing ok, come back........
  • Hello! I'm still here! Where is everyone?!?!? I'm doing ok.. maintaining.. still trying to get to my goal... Let's get this thread moving again!!
  • hey, jaymi! glad to see i am not all thats left, hope you are doing well...... talk to you soon, jamie
  • Hello everyone! Very short post today! I am feeling sooo sick! That will probably keep me from exercising today.. Yesterday, I stayed in the bed all day until it was time to pick up my son, then after buying milk from the store, and taking those tapes back to the Library, I came home to cook (which took everything I had) and my dh called and wanted me to go with him to see the football game. I didn't want to go at all! But I knew he did.. so since he invited us ALL I decided to go. I felt a little better when I got there.. probably because I ate a barbued porkchop and potato salad, and two brownies! But I'm feeling crappy again. I HATE TOM... it's coming probably tomorrow. Unfortunately this will continue until after it's over.. which is 6 days later! I could take some midol... but that might make me too hyper...and woohoo.. that won't be good either! I know it sounds like I’m whining and complaining and etc. etc. But not really! I don’t feel sorry for myself.. Because there’s nothing I or anyone else can do about PMS…. Almost everyone has it… and so I just got to wait it out! It could be worse… like no TOM at all… which wouldn’t be good for me if you know what I mean!!!!! Anyways I ate a bowl of cereal so far... and I want to go lay down and take a nap when my daughter does. I've been decreasing my exercise way too much, but 15 minutes is better than none, so I at least want to strive for my 1 mile WATP tape or something!! I really hate not being able to participate like I want to.. but I will try to find time in the evenings after my son gets off of school to update. I hope everyone is having a blessed day today!
  • hi Jack! nice to meet you .....

    jaymi, sorry your not feeling well i also caught a summer cold this last week and it kicked my butt!!! i hope youare feeling better....talk to you soon, jamie
  • hi all
    been off way too long. guess im down on myself and didnt feel like talking to you guys when im doing bad. i am inching back up towards the 200 mark and soooo much do not want to go there. but it is like i cant stop. i will do good all day and then pig out at night. god this is hard. i wish i could straighten up. i need to get back on plan and really get serious again. we are behind on bills and i think i am depressed about that. but it should be the other way around. if we are low on money then eat less to save ..right? geeeez it sure is one mixed up world. hope everyone else is doing much better than i am.


    Talk to you LIGHTER!!!
