Ok, so once I told DH I wanted a to "lift" the girls surgically, and he told me to get 2 rubber bands and tie one end to the girls and the other end to my ears! I nearly fell out of my chair laughing!

I wanted to post my goals for the week.I fell of the wagon HARD last night at a superbowl party.I won't list what I ate because it will only make me hungry.

1.To stay under 1400 cal and limit my empty calories to under 300
2.Not eat after 9:30pm
3.Exercise 4 times
4.TO STAY POSITIVE-this is not punishment this a way of life and a good one.
5.I must go to bed by middnight.This may not seem early but I am rarely in bed before 2:00am
6.report what I eat here to my peeps-that really helped

I am going to go back and quote and "talk" some more but I don't know how much.Stacey,I feel so bad for you-I have done something to my hip and it hurts sooo bad to sit.Mine probably isn't near the pain you have had(mine feels alot better as soon as I stand),I hope you get some answers soon about yours.Hope some of this made sense.

HI everyone...I am just now catching up from the past day or 2 and I dont have time to comment on everything like I would like to. Hugs to everyone who needs them. I am thinking of all of you, even if I dont have time just yet ot tell you. I have a sick kiddo sleeping on the couch right now so I can DIS a bit Not sure how far I will get....BUT

I do have to comment on one thing I saw though from Princess V-

I'm so frustrated with my current state of choosing between foods that I enjoy and make me happy vs. achieving a weight it's almost impossible for me to maintain. For some background, I come from the world of the Ballet and spent most of my impressionable years in it. No, I'm not anorexic and never had an eating disorder, but I do have a ridiculous self-image of my body as being "round" if I carry any body fat at all. The only time in my adult life I was satisfied with my body was the year following my divorce, when, thanks to stress, I'd gotten down to 102 pounds. Remember, I am 5' tall, so this wasn't dangerously thin at all, and I did look good. But I couldn't eat well and maintain that, which is why I'm up 10 pounds now.

I am in a very similar place V. I came from that background and even when I was thin, there was always somebody thinner or some teacher pointing out ways my body still needed to change. In fact, as a Dance Major we had to weigh and measure body fat each month. They posted the results (by # so it was somewhat anonymous) but everyone could compare their # to everyone elses. Very unhealthy way to live. And you couldnt advance to the higher levels in the ballet technique classes or graduate unless your body fat was in their 'range' they wanted. I still struggle somewhat with leftover body image issues from that time in my life and it sucks. So, just know I feel for you. It is hard to get past that feeling when it was such a huge part of your life for so long, you know?

OK...back to reading. Carry on everyone.....

So far so good--she was homeschooled so the kids are not aware yet. I sure tomorrow is going to be a hard day. She was in the youth at Temple. Just pray for the family--they are making very hard decisions now. She should be on life support until tomorrow.

Morning Peeps! I'll just apologize now because, while I was able to skim through and get somewhat caught up, I know I won't have to time to comment and respond as I'd like. And I'm afraid it'll be like this for some time: school is taking a LOT more of my time this semester and my DISing will have to take a backseat. So please know that I am reading, and I am thinking of each of you and wishing you all the best in every challenge and joy you face, even if I can't type all that out!

I will offer this thought for the week...

I'm so frustrated with my current state of choosing between foods that I enjoy and make me happy vs. achieving a weight it's almost impossible for me to maintain. For some background, I come from the world of the Ballet and spent most of my impressionable years in it. No, I'm not anorexic and never had an eating disorder, but I do have a ridiculous self-image of my body as being "round" if I carry any body fat at all.

Remember, I am 5' tall, so this wasn't dangerously thin at all, and I did look good. But I couldn't eat well and maintain that, which is why I'm up 10 pounds now.

Anyway, my new resolve is to stop thinking about weight altogether. To stop trying to whip my body into a shape it ain't ever gonna be. To accept that I'll never wear skinny jeans and that no one other than Kate Moss or Heidi Klum should be wearing them, either. As of today, I'm working on just getting healthy for the sake of being healthy. I'll limit my intake of empty calories, but I will not eliminate them. I'll make exercise and sleep priorities. I'll stop worrying about calories and eat when I'm hungry, do something else when I'm not. And I'll just buy clothing that flatters my body, pear-ish shape and all.

I'll still be here, if you'll have me! But I may opt out of the weigh-ins in favor of Health Check-Ins to keep me accountable. LY/MI guys! We can all meet our goals if we just find what works for us and keep supporting one another through it all. I'm so proud of you all!

V, We will miss you, and you better keep your TR up young lady! Seriously, you need to just be healthy and happy with that little man of yours. I think you look awesome, and you are a great mommy. Do well in your school work, and pop in from time to time.

Good morning Peeps!

First of all - This is my 200th post! Woo-hooty! Not a lot I know but still a milestone for me!

Secondly, I recovered nicely from my little slip up saturday night. The cereal bars are no longer around and I stayed right on track yesterday making good choices. I know that we can all do this . I'm guilty myself of knowing exactly what needs to be done but in those "moments" there is nothing that I say that makes me stop. I will have to try harder to tell myself that it isn't worth it because it's not!

Thirdly, I'm getting sick . I think. I woke up yesterday with a sort of stuffed nose and scratchy throat that feels like it doubled in size. But it went away and I felt better. Well this morning when I woke up the throat didn't hurt as bad but my nose is stuffy and running. I keep fighting this stupid cold that I thought I was getting a week ago! I wish I could either get it and get it over with or have nothing at all. I think a lot of it is stress from school. The paperwork is neverending and I am never home it feels like. I hate it. But I'm almost done - sort of.

Fourthly, I spent a lot of last night building a website for my cookie company. I'd like to be able to sell them to family friends and friends of friends, etc. since I can't really market myself to the public. All of my baking is done at home so I can't get a health license from the state so I'm relying on word of mouth people that I know trust me. But anyway, that website thing is hard and I'm even using templates.

Well there was probably someone that I wanted to quote and respond to but I didn't. Sorry. I hope everyone has a great week! I hope everyone is satisfied with their how they are reaching their goals this week! I hope everyone gets healthy (if you already aren't) and stays as stress free as possible!

WOOOOHOOOOTY on that 200th post! Good save on the little "slip up". I am right there with you in the sickness area. I woke up Sat. AM with a throat that was killing me. Well, then I started sneezing, and now I am stopped up and my nose is running. I am trying to drink tons of OJ. DH slept upstairs last night to keep from catching it. He will probably have to spend tonight up there too.

Good luck with your cookie baking business! Are you still in school too? I know you were trying to decide. If you are, you are one determined woman!

How are things at school? Was Beth in 8th or 9th grade? She has not attended our church in awhile. Her grandparents do though. We use to live in the same neighborhood as Beth's family, she came to a couple of jr. high things at my house. I can't imagine what her family is going through. My pastor's wife said that the youth pastor from Temple was there, so maybe they were attending church there. I have just been praying this morning.

To let everyone in on what we are talking about - A 14 year old girl that we both know, died suddenly of a brain aneurism this morning. She was an only child. Just keep them in your prayers. Makes all of my problems seem insignificant and petty.

That is so terrible. I'll be praying for her family. That really hits home because my DS will be 14 next month. I can't even imagine what they are going through. She was so young to have something like that happen to her. Sending you and

I am trying to stop using the word whilst but it just keeps popping in.

Don't stop using it, I have grown quite fond of it.

Woooo HOOOOOTY!! Post 650!!!!

WOOOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOTY to you too! That is a great accomplishment. Course it means that we all like to talk ALOT! That's ok because that is who we are!

I'm wearing a smaller bra today, and I must say, I am feeling a bit perky!

That is so funny! I have to say I haven't felt perky for years! At least not since I have had my kids.

What a hard decision for parents to have to make. I will be praying for this family.

I just talked to my pastor's wife. She was taken off life support this morning. She is an organ donor, so they are going through that process right now. I cannot imagine how unbelievably difficult this must be. Did you know them?

oh how terribly sad! I'll be keeping that family and their friends in my prayers! Cannot imagine going through such heart wrenching pain! How wonderful that she is an organ donor. Hopefully this will keep other families from the pain that this family is experiencing!

Everybody give your kids extra hugs and kisses tonight!
