Biggest Loser--SUMMER 2011 Challenge for Losers & Maintainers!

[JacksLilWench]

Congrats on a good loss this week. Just over a pound a week before your trip, is very do-able. You might have said before, but where are you staying in disney? I love to hear about everyone's plans.

We're staying at CBR for the first time ever..I'm so excited! Not in one of the pirate rooms, though. Those seem a little too much for me, unless Jack Sparrow would actually be IN the room and I could have my way with him But since he's not, I can't sleep on a 2-inch pad for a week and walk around the parks, lol.

Hello everyone!!!!

Just a quick check in to say hello. I am so glad this week is over. I still have so much catching up to do at work but hopefully next week I can get a handle on it. For now I am heading back down to the jersey shore for the day tomorrow. This time it is going to be me and my kids and my parents. Dh is staying home to do the yard work that we have been neglecting. I am feeling guilty but its his choice. I told him it would be fine but he doesnt want to push it off any longer.

So most likely I will be MIA tomorrow. We are going to seaside heights,NJ. I havent been there in 2 years so I am wondering how crazy it has gotten since the Jersey Shore has filmed there and become so popular. I will let you know if I see snookie.

We're flying down to FL August 12th and then coming home the evening of the 16th. The plan is to take the Magical Express to the Contemporary and get our rental car from Alamo. Then we're going to meet with our sales rep and/or realtor to get our keys to the house. I also need to talk to them about getting the utilities up and running as well.

We're going to head to the house and figure out where we are going to put everything. I'm half tempted to take a pad of paper, pen, and scotch tape and label walls so I know where its all going come October. . We're also going to do some driving around and figure out where our necessities are: Walgreens for my meds, Wally World, grocery stores, etc etc.

I told Alan since we were staying at the Contemporary that we should take a day and go to Magic Kingdom, .

Tomorrow we are getting up early and heading to IHOP for breakfast followed by our noon pedicure appointment. Then my best friend is coming over and we're going to swim and grill out. Sunday, we're going to focus on getting the garage somewhat situated.

Everyone have a great weekend!

Good morning everyone! It's going to be another nice one. DH and I are trying to figure out what to do today. It's not often that we have nothing planned so we're open to whichever way the wind blows us.

I suggested the Franklin Park Zoo, but I don't think DH wants to drive an hour. There's always Bradley Palmer state park, so maybe that's an option.

I need to hit up Hallmark for their Keepsake Ornament preview weekend then I'm free.

Though now I'm tempted to go to Bed Bath and Beyond. Yesterday I got on the scale and it said I was up 4 pounds Let's just say that I was less than pleased after working out all but 1 night this week. So I pick it up whack it and move it to a different spot on the floor, step on and now I'm down a pound. The darn thing is so tempermental, I can't stand it. It is 5 years old so maybe it's time for a new one. Does anyone know if these things have a shelf life?

Well, I'm a typical anal accountant and when we moved offices, I took a layout of my office, and put it in excel to a mini scale, so if the room is 5 X 10 I had 20 X 40 little excel blocks all shaded then I could measure my furniture and color in blocks within the shaded part to see where everything would fit.

That might be an idea if you have some furniture that may or may not fit properly. It could also give you an idea of whether or not stuff will cover a window if you shade in the windows on your sheet.

Probably too much work, but that's what I'd do

 

[Rose&Mike]

Congrats to you, momofdjc! Great job last week!

I was excited to see my name on the list for last week...especially since I'll probably be up this week unless I manage to drop a pound today

We had BL weigh-ins at my gym last night and it just brought my frustration with their program to a head. You know that "I'm so angry and I don't want to make a scene so it comes out in tears" feeling? Well, that's where I was last night. I've had 2 trainers come and go since June, the managers of the gym have moved on to another location so basically I was feeling abandoned...and angry that I had paid for the privilege, when I could have managed what's been accomplished so far on my own. (Each BL challenge at the gym is $170 on top of the regular membership...plus the cost of additional trainer sessions at $30 a pop.) We're half-way through this challenge and I had yet to have a meal plan or any goal consultations with a trainer and only 2 trainer sessions because the two trainers (who are now gone) were always "booked" though I hardly ever saw them at the gym. We're also supposed to have "before" photos and a graph of our progress up on the wall for each team, and that hasn't happened either.

(Ugh...this is making me sound like a whiney complainer, and that's so not who I am... but I need to get this out so I don't work it out with a bag of cookies or Dove chocolates.)

Anyway, it came to a head last night when I realized that I was the only member of my so-called team that was there for the weigh-in and because our team once again had a new trainer, we were once again going to be last to weigh in. I marched up to the front, struggling not to cry and told the athletic director that I was not going to wait 60-90 minutes to be the last person to weigh in, sitting in a team row all by myself. They started asking me questions but I couldn't even answer - I just got up on the scale so I could get out of there.

And it didn't help that I was up over a pound since my last weigh-in. Blech.

But, my new trainer did stop me on my way out of the dressing room and set up appointments for me, so maybe the situation will improve. And today is another day.

What a frustrating experience! I hope the new trainer works out.

Ahh, thank you. I am sore today, as I haven't been to the gym in a long time. I am also working, but DH and I have planned to go tomorrow morning when he comes home from work. (7am) It will be a good start to my day.

I started my weight loss the last week of April. I lost a lot quickly and now it has plateau-ed. I have lost 9 pounds since June 3rd, so I am making progress. I turned 40 last year and I am really feeling it. LOL I am going to work on staying positive. I want to keep this off, so I know slow is better.

Glad it helped. Sometimes I'm not sure if people really want my unsolicited advice. I am 43, so it's doable--just might take a little while. I can honestly say that I am in the best shape of my life. Last winter I ran a 8:15 mile. And I think if I wouldn't have been injured this spring I would have been right around 8:00 when I did my next timed mile. I have just learned that I really have to listen to my body or sometimes it slows me down whether I want to or not.

hi everyone! sorry, no time to do personals again. lame, i know. i just walked in the house from the beach. we had a nice time. this is the beach club that is only about half a mile from my house (though i drove b/c i had all our beach stuff with us). threw thomas in the tub and of course he pooped in there! DH got home right as that was happening and scooped him up and dressed him while i cloroxed the tub. well not even 5 min later thomas had massive diarrhea through the diaper and on the floor! GAH! cleaned him up again and now we're sitting on the couch waiting for chinese to be delivered

i'm sure you all needed me to tell you that but i bet the moms on here can remember those super fun times!

off to go lay on the couch for a little. i'm wiped!!

Oh, yes I remember those days. For about 18 months Tom had a diagnosis of "toddler diarrhea" basically meaning they ran a million tests and had no idea why he had chronic issues. It was loads of fun. I hope today is better!

What time did DS wake up? Those days are probably far off for me

I think he got up around 10:00. He had a phone call.

Hello everyone!!!!

Just a quick check in to say hello. I am so glad this week is over. I still have so much catching up to do at work but hopefully next week I can get a handle on it. For now I am heading back down to the jersey shore for the day tomorrow. This time it is going to be me and my kids and my parents. Dh is staying home to do the yard work that we have been neglecting. I am feeling guilty but its his choice. I told him it would be fine but he doesnt want to push it off any longer.

So most likely I will be MIA tomorrow. We are going to seaside heights,NJ. I havent been there in 2 years so I am wondering how crazy it has gotten since the Jersey Shore has filmed there and become so popular. I will let you know if I see snookie.

Have lots of fun Lindsay!

*******
How is everyone??

Kathy--we are doing WIN every 3 weeks this challenge since it's shorter--I think it's every 3 weeks at least. But the time is really going by fast!

We don't have much planned this weekend. We think we are going to be putting our house on the market in a couple of weeks so we will be working on the stuff the real estate agent told us we need to do. Tomorrow is a run day--but it's a cutback week so only 6 miles. I like six miles, short and fast!

Have a great day everyone!

 

[mikamah]

In Wolfeboro or near there? Will's parents live in Moultonborough.

I took Dylan to Endicott park at 9:10, I guess they only open at 9 and we went to the park and then checked out the horses for an hour. After that the 3 of us walked to the Daily Harvest for lunch and then around town. Dylan had his 2 year appt. then we walked around town again and grabbed Liberty Sub. After Dylan went to bed I did Zumba, but I think all the walking and being outside has wiped me out b/c my heart wasn't in my workout tonight.

They're in Wakefield, I think, not far from Province Lake, and poor peoples pub. It's a small campground, called Woodman Lake, and it's on a little stream/lake that's sort of dried up. michael's excited to go. We might fish, and my sister called last night and their neighbors 10 yo grandson is there this weekend, so he might be able to chum around with him. It's small and quiet, so this year I'll let him ride his bike around on his own.
You guys are so good about getting out and walking. Endicott park is perfect for Dylan. Michael's not happy with the new playground, not as much fun as the old one for the big kids.

We're staying at CBR for the first time ever..I'm so excited! Not in one of the pirate rooms, though. Those seem a little too much for me, unless Jack Sparrow would actually be IN the room and I could have my way with him But since he's not, I can't sleep on a 2-inch pad for a week and walk around the parks, lol.

Now I'd pay extra for a moderate if jack Sparrow would be there. Heck, I'd pay deluxe prices. So excited for you. Thanks for not just pointing out your clippie that I saw today. I'm so observant some times.

Enjoy your pedicures today. I think you both deserve a day at MK on that trip to unwind, and relax with all that is going on with the move. I hope you can work it in.

Bummer on the scale. I got a new one when mine was acting up like that too, but the one I have now just needed a new battery when it was acting funny.
It's a gorgeous day here. I've never been to Franklin Park zoo. It's further, but the Roger Williams Zoo in Providence is beautiful, and there's a big common/park area to picnic on too. Enjoy your day!!

Thanks again Rose for the Win info. I'm so out of it, and haven't been here as much as I'd like. I'm glad I am coaching this week and will be able to catch up and hope to keep up for the next few weeks.
Only 6 miles. I wonder if I will ever be able to say, I only did 6 miles. Hope you enjoy your weekend.

Good morning everyone!! How's your weekend going so far? Get that extra glass of water in today, take the stairs, and park a little farther when you go to a store. Let's take those little steps today to make us a little healthier tomorrow.

I ran/walked with my friend this morning and we did 6.8 miles. Its feels great now that it's over. I hadn't run since sunday, and the only other day I exercised this week was thursday when we walked and played tennis. I'll need to do something tomorrow.
We're heading to my sisters camp shortly and I'll bring my running stuff, and either run or walk in the am. I'm bringing the beergaritas, and plan to keep myself in control.

If I have wifi there, I'll catch up tomorrow morning, other wise, I'll pop on her friends computer quick tonight to post tomorrow's qotd. I wonder what the question will be if it's influenced by the beergaritas.

Have a fabulous weekend everyone!

Thought I'd go with a fun question today, and get some ideas for fun movies at the same time. We just watched the first Pirates of the Carribean movie, and loved it, and have the others coming on netflix.

I love Sleepless in Seattle. Have watched it a ton of times. My favorite disney movie is a tie between Up and Toy Story 3. Loved them both. Ds's favorite movie is The DIary of a Wimpy kid.

Have a great day!!!

My scale showed another .5 down today So, my week of eating VERY carefully did pay off after all with a total of one pound loss - I'm happy with that, that is good for me at this stage/age! However, it is still weight that I put back on at the end of June and I need to lose one more pound to be back to my lowest of this challenge. Yesterday and today I walked 3 miles and that's just all I feel like doing for exercise. Will try to get into the Y Sunday or Monday.

I have been feeling so depressed this round of trying to lose weight. It feels like it is coming off so slowly.

I have lost 9 pounds since June 3rd, so I am making progress.

WHAT!!!??? You have lost 9 pounds in 6 weeks and you are frustruated? I would be delighted!!! You are doing AWESOME
I take back my post from yesterday - we are not in the same boat - I don't even think we are in the same lake Seriously, whatever you are doing, keep it up I have been at this for 17 months and have "only" been able to lose 29 pounds. I am so jealous of your success

So I pick it up whack it and move it to a different spot on the floor, step on and now I'm down a pound. The darn thing is so tempermental, I can't stand it. It is 5 years old so maybe it's time for a new one. Does anyone know if these things have a shelf life?

I've been wondering the same thing about this old scale I am borrowing. I feel so much better and I am looking better in my clothes but the darn scale does not show any difference, it keeps going up & down between the same 2 lbs. Can't wait to have my new scale back again when all our stuff arrives from Germany.

Saturday 7/16/11 QOTD- What is your favorite movie or series of movies of all time? What is your favorite Disney movie it your favorite is not a disney movie? If your kids or parents are handy, what are their favorites?

My favorite movie of all time is Gone With the Wind. I also love The Color Purple. I know DH's favs are Tombstone, A River Tuns Through It and Legends of the Fall. DS is still at camp but I am picking him up this afternoon My favorite Disney movie would be any of the Toy Stories

Tracey, sorry to hear about your Mom. My sister fell on her (broken) arm in the yard yesterday trying to take Mom's dog out. My younger sister & I feel like we have 3 kids on our hands: Mom, Dad and my older Sister!

Christina, good luck with your move! It sounds so exciting! I love to hear all the plans you are carrying out.

For all you HP fans, my FB page has been filled with people in costumes, making butterbeer, etc, etc. Glad you (for the most part) enjoyed the movie!

Kathy, have fun this weekend and watch the beergaritas!

Rose, good luck getting your house ready to go on the market. Hope it is a stress-free experience for you

Nancy - OMG I never handled poopie very well I think I have blacked out those days I know you were glad when DH arrived home!

Lindsay, enjoy your day at the shore

Hello to everyone else

My Dad got moved to a private room yesterday and hopefully will be coming home soon. He was very confused this morning and didn't know where he was ! The fluid on his heart was determined to be caused by a virus. It's interesting that all this mental stuff is happening at the same time. I'm glad that it's being seen by the medical professionals who can help him. I don't know how much of this my Mom has seen at home and not told anyone

Have a great weekend

Shawn

 

[JacksLilWench]

Hahahaha, I don't blame you for it, I do that all the time! I'm just so not as observant as I should be!

Saturday 7/16/11 QOTD- What is your favorite movie or series of movies of all time? What is your favorite Disney movie it your favorite is not a disney movie? If your kids or parents are handy, what are their favorites?

My favorite series would have to be the POTC 1-4...except for 3. That one was way too long and convoluted and hard to follow. I REALLY didn't like it at all, even though I did cry in the theatre when (SPOILER ALERT!) Will died. My second favorite series would definitely be TS. I love Buzz and Woody!

 

[tiki23]

tiki23- Sorry that gym is so frustrating for you. Hopefully this trainer will stick around and you'll see fabulous results.

In excellent news, I resisted chocolate covered almonds for the entire week! Thanks for making me take the pledge!

Thanks for the hug - and great job on the almonds! I need to follow your lead with the huge back of Costco trailmix that is always at work.

Sorry the gym isn't helping. Can you complain to management or new management since the old one is gone? Maybe corporate? It sounds like a lot extra to pay if it isn't doing what you were promised it would do and include.

Thanks for your reply. I sent an email to the owner and the new athletic director at the local club.

Such a bummer on the challenge, but I hope the new trainer will step up to the plate. You're not a whiney complainer, we're here to listen, and you are so right, better to get it all out, rather than stuff it down with food. Though I love me some Dove. But I digress. Hope things improve for you.

I'm trying to write it before I bite it, and I know that will help to some degree keep me in control.

It's so frustrating how slow it comes off as we get older, but I'm with you thinking I want to keep it off this time, and I know that in order to do this, I need to make this a lifestyle I can live with......All those small steps will add up. It is a learning process too as to what foods to order, and figuring out where you can cut back on calories.

Thanks! on the Dove Love...love me some of those little yummies. GREAT advice and comments.

What a frustrating experience! I hope the new trainer works out.

Thanks, Rose!

I have hope for the new trainer - he's a nice kid and I overheard him say to another trainer that if he wanted to be successful and help people that he needs to focus on what his clients need.

I'm over my pity party - thanks for all of your support! It's all me, all the time - I gotta want it, write it down and make it happen.

 

[bellebookworm9]

Just wanted to say that I took my measurements today and I was very pleased with the results: I've lost 5.5 inches total since the challenge started, with the majority of that being from my waist (4.75 inches! ). I lost a little bit from everywhere else for the first time, but my arms are somehow still .5 inch bigger than when we started, though less than 3 weeks ago.

 

[tigger813]

UGH!!!! My sister called while I was at work following the ambulance to the hospital. Mom couldn't get up and Dad's legs gave out again. It does look like she broke her wrist and they are being on the safe side and checking her hip. My nephew is at the house with my dad. I suspect she will be there a day or two. My sister said we have no choice but to look into assisted living as it's just not safe for them at the house anymore. And the worst part is that they had to cut off my mom's wedding ring that she has never had off in the almost 50 years they have been married. She cried but then stopped.

I feel so sorry for my sister and what she is having to deal with. She knows that I can't be there. She is just overly frustrated and my mother is being awful towards her.

Had a nice morning at work with 2 of my favorite clients! Came home and called my sister and then made lunch. We are off to Harry Potter in about 30 minutes. We will have to stand in line for at least an hour for seats if we want to sit together. I'm so excited! I had better go and get my tissues to put in my bag!

Off to see some friends after the movie. Need to brush my teeth and finish getting ready!

TTFN

[satorifound]

Every other time I have worked at losing weight I lose about 3 pounds a week. I don't mean to sound ungrateful, but sometimes I just want to pig out. Even more so when the scale moves so slowly. (I even quit my diet soda this round, I REALLY miss it, STILL.) I have been dieting this time since the end of April, I think it was.

On another note... I made it to the gym today. Yay! LOL The gym definitely helps the pounds come off quicker. Now I am hot and pooped so I am relaxing enjoying a BIG glass of water.

WHAT!!!??? You have lost 9 pounds in 6 weeks and you are frustruated? I would be delighted!!! You are doing AWESOME

I'm at 9mth pp and I still have 30lbs to get back to my pre-baby weight

 

[cclovesdis]

Hi Everyone!

I've been reading and having a hard time posting, so I apologize for seeming like I am MIA.

Thanks for all the congrats and support! I saw a great number on the scale this week and I am very happy. I am less than 1/2 a pound from my starting weight at WW too! I am hoping for another good loss this week.

Rose: I keep thinking about taking a calcium supplement. I may have to take it at lunch, which means I'll likely never remember. There is something about one of the other meds that I take and calcium supplements. I should clarify that and then make a schedule. I don't have any symptoms after drinking milk, so I have to remember to have a glass every morning.

I am planning to change up breakfast and have a veggie omelet tomorrow morning. We have lots of veggies in the house from our crop share agreement and we have started picking produce from our garden!

Tomorrow, we are planning to have family dinner. Aka, pasta and 3-meat sauce. I talked to my parents about how it isn't really on my diet and they were really good about it. I suggested having sauce over broccoli and they loved the idea! I figured we have plenty in the freezer and I love broccoli, so why not? But, it gets even better. We have fresh broccoli from our crop share agreement in the fridge and mom offerred to cook that for me!

My big plan for tomorrow is to work on the basement. I am planning to have a garage sale in a few weeks and I need to start organizing by price. My sister is going to help me. I'm thinking my mom will too, especially since she is the one who wants the basement much less covered in stuff we don't need. I don't mind parting with it, but I'd keep it if it wasn't taking up lots and LOTS of space.

Well, I'm all ed out for the night. It's great to be in a great mood! Oh, one more thing. My parents, my sister, my BIL, and I went out to dinner tonight to a pizza place. I ordered a personal pizza which was listed on the menu as a "personal pita pizza" so I expected it to be on a pita. It wasn't, but it was pita sized, and I only ate half! I also had a side salad. This is a huge NSV for me!

QOTD: I love Disney movies most of all. Beauty and the Beast is probably my favorite, although everything else is a close second. All the Harry Potter movies are my non-Disney faves.

Have a great, OP day tomorrow everyone!

Good Sunday morning everyone.

Welcome Aldergray

Been working on painting the house. It is all prep work and it is slow but I keep telling myself that it needs to be done. I am also worried that it is supposed to get really hot this week. When it is too hot we can't paint because it takes too much out of us and the paint dries too fast.

Favorite movies. I think it is too many to count.

Apollo 13 ( I watch it at least 3 times a year
Many musicals

Favorite series Indiana Jones and Star Wars

Favorite Disney 101 Dalmations (original) Parent Trap (both) and most of the newer ones from Beauty and the Beast and on including most of the Pixar movies.

May go see a local version of South Pacific today. My friend did the scenery for it.

Have a happy and healthy day.
