Crashing. It's been a loong time since 3:30 when I woke up. Got a lot done today, but not enough!!!! Not sure how I can get it all done, but I will. I might have to "gasp" skip my run tomorrow. I hope not. Professor finally emailed me suggestions on how to fix something, and I have to get it done by 4pm. Having my hair highlighted tomorrow, taking kids to my mom's during that appt, then to MIL & FIL to spend the night, then I HAVE to pack. My clothes are in a basket, girls' are bagged, DH's are all over the back of the couch.
There is no way that I can think to do anything now, I hope some of that made sense. OK. I will run tomorrow. I have to. I can't skip it. If I have to, I can take my laptop and work on my class while my hair is processing. Or something.
I will be brutally honest. I grabbed 3 pretzel pieces (dime sized) about 5 times today. I don't care. I didn't have the emotional energy to worry about it, with everything else I have on tap. I should have at least a maintain for this week, my rings are loose again! Drank lots of water, and literally a gallon of unsweet mint iced tea, and the caffeine buzz is going away. I am just typing and rambling now. I think words are coming out. I could make this a game to see how long I can type nonsense. You know that mode when you are typing but not really sure what you are saying? Yeah, I think I am there. Night night.

I AM DOWN 1LB!!!I am actually thrilled with that, after the week I've had. Yeah, I would have loved to hit "normal" BMI before WDW, but I'll take not having a gain. That will be next week's. Actually, I guess I need to ask for an excused absence next weekend, don't know if I will be able to get to a scale. I have been putting my weight into spark, and it gives you a little graph if you set a goal. I
set a goal of 146 by my birthday on Sept. 5. I wasn't going to share that, but the cat's out of the bag now. Shucks, now SOMEONE's going to hold me accountable. Not really sure why I picked that number?? Anyway. I am under the goal line by a few pounds, so I have a tiny bit of wiggle room for next week.
Gotta get busy! Good luck to everyone on the scale today!
we'll I'm down 5 lbs...... amazing..... diet and exercize really does work....
I tried running this morning because my ankle was feeling better so now I'm elevating/icing it....I just really want the sprain to heal its really frustrating becuase once again I maintained my weight because I can't excersize. I seriously just want to give up
+8.6
+8.6
Just thought I'd share my massive gain this week to make everyone who didn't lose or had a slight gain feel better.
Hi, all. I haven't been around this week. I've been on a road trip and brought part of the road home with me. I left with a plan to exercise without my trusty treadmill. Bought cute new workout clothes, a water bottle holder, made sure my mp3 was charged and full of tunes. But the 100-degree southern heat beat the crap out of me. Spending just an hour outside wiped us out for hours. You can't drive more than a block or two in my Ohio town without seeing walkers and joggers. In Arkansas it was dead. How do you southerners do it?
I also gave up on my diet after 2 days. Grandma kept trying to feed me, and succeeded. By the last leg home yesterday, I was eating Hershey's bars and coconut cream pie. And feeling like crap. Wish I could say it was worth it. Most of it definitely wasn't.
Will have to work like heck this week to get some of it off. Hoping a little will also come off when my stomach relaxes and I get back to a regular, ahem, "routine."
So there ya go. If you're not happy with your numbers this morning, you can still say "at least I didn't suck as bad as THAT chick."![]()
I was shocked when I got on the scale this am!! I am down 5 lbs. I did do a lot of sweating yesterday, between mowing and walking on the beach, so I hope it doesn't come back as soon as I drink water!!
Today is our anniversary 27 years. My romantic husband wants to go to Five Guys burgers & fries!!! There is nothing low cal on that menu!!! It's brand new to our area so I won't argue with him!!
Happy Anniversary!
It's our 16th today too. We have no plans tonight, but will go somewhere tomorrow to celebrate.
OOPS!! Forgot to share happy news. Down 2.5 this week. YAY!!!

Good question! We usually do takeout on Friday nights. It will probably either be a chicken kabob salad for me, or some other salad with protein. It's getting hot here today (finally 80s!), so I'll want something chilled.

I apologize in advance because I am going to have to vent- my 85 yr old Grandpa went to the hospital last night...vomiting/diarrea/fever/dangerously low blood pressure and was admitted. they home he can go home today but is checking his blood for bacterial infection first.
Now I just fund out that my 1 month old niece coughed up blood and is at the ER! I am just so worried and upset right now. I hope they are OK. it is soooo hard for me to focus on anything else!
Thank goodness DS and I aren't the only onesWe also go to the park and play tennis sometimes, which pretty good exercise since neither of us is very good, so if noone else is there, we tend to play across all 3 courts.![]()
Congrats on your loss and Happy Anniversary! I love Five Guys - yummy, yummy, yummy! The burgers really arent horrible, calorie wise, especially if you get a little (single as opposed to the regular double) and pile veggies on it. If you can go without the bun, even better. Its the fries you have to be careful ofI was shocked when I got on the scale this am!! I am down 5 lbs.
