DISappearing Peeps...A fastpass to THIN! Part 2

[dismom9761]

WOOOOOHOOOOTY

WTG Dragonfly, Dismom, and Harley!! Do tell, was it hard? How was your time? Did you walk, run or both??

I can only speak for myself,so yes it was hard.Dragonfly and I walked together and jogged some(downhill and we really pushed ourselves.We finished in 39.52 min.I am looking forward to doing it again and improving,not so much my time but to be able to do it without it being so hard.It might would help if I found a shorter walking partner.

 

[Disneyfreak92]

I forgot to say WAY TO GO UM! Keep it up! How about another 20 today? Oh heck, how about 25 minutes???

Good for you... and on the "shorter walking partner" Me - I'm 5'11 so I wont be much help!!

I just checked and still no registration info up for the Friday Jan '08 5K!!

I can see it now, one 5K, then after a FP to the EE, then Safari, then Lion King, another trip down EE... a quick bite to eat at the Tuskar House, then the Dinosaur ride.. maybe Nemo... before heading back to try and get a nap in for the 1/2 Marathon (must be up at 3:30AM!!)

Good Afternoon Peeps!

I just wanted to check in and say hello! I'm glued to my computer trying to get lesson plans done and then work on more school work. I don't think I have ever felt so stressed and overwhelmed with school work before - not even when I was teaching and had no idea what I was doing in the beginning! I know - that's life in the real world so I have to get used to it - but it doesn't mean I have to like it .

Hope you all are making great healthy choices today and feeling like the super skinny minnies I know you are! I'm a little hungry myself since I only had a grapefruit for breakfast so lunch is sounding good!

I'M IN!!!
I have to see Nemo though and I don't need the nap because I won't be doing the 1/2.What time do I need to get up to cheer for you?

When I am that pregnant I look huge all over. That is not even fair!!!

DID YOU MISS ME?????
10.5 pounds since last weigh in

New weight is 353. I have a new found dedication for losing this weight. I am determineed to make myself a better person for those around me.

WOOHOOO to everyone who has lost weight in the last two weeks.

So how is everyone today???????

I have been so busy that I haven't had any time to catch up on the boards so I have resolved myself to pop in say hi and give up on catching up.

I love you all thanks for the continuous support and I'll be watching.

That is so awesome! Way to Go dude!

I am another who hasn't exercise in about 10 days so I got back on the treadmill today after seeing I'm gaining weight already. I need to even this out. So I got in 50 minutes. It's a great way to study flashcards.

I'm already wearing some maternity stuff. I've popped out early and it's all up high. That's unusual for me.

Have a great weekend.

Ps. I am jealous of this 5K meet. I'd be so there if it wasn't for the baby.
I was doing so good running and stuff before all of this. I was doing 3 miles under 40 mins. Sometimes by 36 minutes.

Promise me there'll be another.

 

[S.Poppins]

DH is giving me the "hurry up, what is taking you so long look" the kids are gone and I guess he has plans.... so I am stalling!

Sandy - What the heck is up with your new avatar? I watched it for awhile thinking it was going to spit something out or something...but nothin' . That is weird!

Shannon - I like the Minnie avatar!

Eh, she just doesn't "know" you. I can SOOOO relate to that frustration. My dinner was very entertaining there as I think of it now. But at the time I wanted a classy dining experience Let's just say, we're more of the Whispering Canyon type of family! I didnt know you were doing a dining review!!!! I'm all over it like bacon bits on cheese soup....(YUM!)


Sounds like you handled her very well. You are a great person Stacey. I enjoy reading and knowing you!!!!!!

Thanks Wendy! I am so glad to be a part of this "family"!

Wonders- NICE Minnie!!!! You are so cute!

Everyone- My DH accidentally left the Annual Pass for Disneyland (the reciept and info.) in the printer! SURPRISE!!!! My family is in Cally where I grew'd up. So we'll get to go see them more often! YAY! More Funnel Cakes.....

Wow that is exciting. But don't let on that you know!!! How far away is Disneyland from you? Do you drive or fly?

Do you like the exercise ball. All the magazine exercise sections seem to have programs using the exercise ball. I am not very coordinated. I just picture my self looking like I'm in ascene from "I love Lucy", "Laverne and Shirley" or maybe "saturday night Live" if I try one!

I think I would look hysterically funny too. And I would have to do it when no one was home!!!

Finally caught up and firstly Fidge well done on the jobs.

I do get a little worried sometimes as the English humour is so different to yours that's why I use a lot of smilies. Also some of our words are rude to you and viser versa(sp) like Fanny pack, fanny is really rude here and we call it a bum bag which is rude to you! I haven't read the latest on Staceys dining report but will do now, can I just say that it was a superb report and I thouroughly enjoyed it. Also people should really remember if you haven't got anything nice to say don't say anything!

See you guys later the girls are going dry slope skiing with choir, neither have done it before so I expect there will be lots of falling over.

Thanks Jo! What is dry slope skiing?

My oh my, I miss you guys! I do lurk here often! Congrats on the babies WOWSIERS! A huge thanks to utahmama and Aires! You guys so made my day, it's been a rough couple of weeks and that was such a wonderful surprise in the mail ! I even wore it to the gym last night and when I recieved a phone call after my time on the elliptical I though about skipping my weight lifting, but then I saw it and thought WWPD? Well peeps would get their rear in gear and do their weight lifting! So I did I feel so down lately and my eating is not great but I am keeping up with my exercise so I know if I can get control of my eating then this weight that I have gained WILL COME OFF! I'll keep lurking for some motivational support! Good Job losers! Keep working gainers and samers you CAN DO IT!

summers

We have missed you too!

Happy Saturday!!!We survived Friday yippeee!

Stacey the only geography I know is where the grocer is, the post office the bank, the school , work and where DIsney is!! You can't mean to tell me there is anywhere else I need to know is!!! Silly ole bears!

Ok the job front. I drive handicapped wheelchair bound students as well as behaviorly challenged and speical needs students too! I love my little darlings! SO I will drive and then do the real estate gig on weekends and the hotel in the evenings. I do not know how long I will be able to hold up. I have lupus and sometimes my system can get really run down. I truly think if I can stay focused I cna do this. I wnat to be able to take DS traveling next year and do some repairs around the house. WIth school out in the summer it wouldn't be too hard.

I am hoping maybe the real estate gig could turn into something that would help eliminate the need for a 3rd job. I learned DH had changed his withholding by a suggestion of a co worker and we will ahve to pay this year. I had no idea and had planned our trip based on our usual refund. I wish that man would not talk to other men!!!

[OK YES no wonder I have no idea what a Dyson is, its a hoove rfor heavens sake, I just tape up DS and the dogs and roll them around on the floor you see ususally we have an uncanny ability around here to break all vacumms at once! Amazing and I always have 10 of the wrong bags as the oness I do have are the ones that don't work anymore!!! My cure, remove carpettting!

How old is your DS? I did not know you had Lupus. That would make 3 jobs hard at times. But they sound like great jobs! I will be praying for you!!!
"tape up DS"

I paint every spring and she always some how shows up and dumps deck stain her her head!! THat right sticks her head in the can year after year...ahh duh!!

Can you translate this?!

WE DID IT!!

Dragonfly,Harley,and I walked in our first 5k this morning.Dragonfly and I finished in 39.52 minutes. I will let Harley brag on herself.

My house is so quiet,Dragonfly took the girls for the day,though her boyfriend looked terrified.It was pretty funny. DH and DS9 are gone intil about 2:30 and DS11 is hiding because I mentioned cleaning the house.This NEVER happens to me.

WOOOOHOOOOTY!

Wow, you guys talked a lot this morning!

 

[harleygirl]

I am just getting time to go back and read all of todays posts. This really got to me though Snowwite:


My DH is the exact same way. He just has no emotions I think. Men are dumb

no - its called menareputz affliction -(except Grumpy!)

I missed you !!!! Good Job

This is as close as I could come to a smilie giving a rasberry!!!!

NOT FAIR!!!! But I am a good sport, so..... So are the MAN!!!! Way to go! You may end up being like that guy on the Biggest Loser who lost like more than half of himself! WOOOOOOHOOOOOTY! Glad you are back by the way, we missed your sense of humor!!!!! Now go have a great date night with your beautiful wife! She has been a treasure to me this week. You should go read what she wrote on my dining review! She is gutsy and gorgeous!

Alright, I am usually the one who brings people food. But people have brought us food the last 3 nights. And I am just here to tell you that people don't bring diet food. Chicken and dorito casserole, KFC, and tonight red beans and rice and this amazing chocolate cobbler. It would be rude not to eat it, right!!!! I did not eat much red beans and rice. But the cobbler..... the last bite was as good as the first! I think I will go take a laxative with my Lortab!

taste what you want, savor each and every bite!!! then stop after a few

Afraid I am but a mere mortal... only lost 2.8 this week. I knew it would slow down eventually, but... darn. Ticked me off. Can I blame AF?

I am so proud of you for your hard work...honey I bet you put on a few lbs of mucsle you skinnie minnie you!

Do you like the exercise ball. All the magazine exercise sections seem to have programs using the exercise ball. I am not very coordinated. I just picture my self looking like I'm in ascene from "I love Lucy", "Laverne and Shirley" or maybe "saturday night Live" if I try one!

love my ball and I always fall off...provides alot of humor

Harley- I am hoping to be sent to the naughty corner for eatting so badly, can you send me there with the fireman to keep an eye on me???

when he gets finished rubbing my feet I'll send him to you

Thanks for pointing that out, Fidge........now I can't stop watching it either. WTH is that thing???? And WHAT is it doing????

Is it kissing??? burping??? cramping???? Watch out....I think it's gonna blow!!!!

You know we love you, Sandy!!!!

It is passing ColonBlow

Okay I quit multiposting a few pages ago cause I wasnt sure how many I could do..

WOOHOOTY I finished the 5K in 47.50 min - all but the last mile were under 15 min and then that last mile we had to make a potty stop but we finished!!!! My partner has long legs like me, but with it being 27 degrees this morning my foot started cramping up and I had to take it really slow...We ran in spurts til we had to potty real bad then we were afraid we'd make icicles so we walked more than we ran!

I am SO PROUD OF US!!!!! Even tho when I exercise I usually put in around 3 mi. it was still very sweet to pass thru the finish line!

 

[duncanssweetie]

Hi Peeps !!!

I walked for about 30 minutes on the TM, not too swiftly, though so I'm not sure if it did any good. After coming home from the dentist yesterday I was a little out of it. All I had to eat was orange jello and pain pills, LOL. It turned out a lot better than I thought and I think I'll actually be okay for the next few appointments. I'm so proud of myself, LOL. Actually, I thought of something my Mom used to say (okay, I have said it, too) ...."just put yer big girl panties on and deal with it" sooooo, I guess you could say I had my "big girl panties" on
Anyway, I am on a liquid/semi soft diet for the next few days ,courtesy of my wonderful dentist, and jello and soup is not cuttin' it. SOOO, if any of you have some good healthy alternatives I would greatly appreciate it.

Oh yah, I even have hubby reminding me WWPD !!! I forgot to tell you guys that Thursday night he went and got a me a few things I would be able to eat this weekend and he was going to get some ice cream. Well, I told him I needed fat free frozen yogurt because that's what the Peeps would do. He said alright, with a semi puzzled look on his face. (after we got home I explained and showed him the thread, he thinks it's great BTW) So this morning when I got up, NOT wanting to excercise, he says "What would your Peeps do?" so there ya go !!! I guess after all this timme he found something besides his drill seargent tactics to work and he is now using it to the fullest, LOL. I bet the WWPD motto would work on his soldiers, too, hmmmm maybe we're on to something here. I can picture it now, the Army implementing WWPD into their cadences, Okay, now that the last pain pill I took is in total effect I think I need to HUSH, I'm getting loopy goofity again.

Love you Guys and REMEMBER ..... YOU CAN DO IT, YOU ARE WORTH IT !!
BIG HUGS Brandi

Of course! DO IT! I won't be doing mine until this evening probably, but I WILL be doing something for 25 minutes!

Right now, I am excited because I got tickets to a concert this morning! It's on 6/3/07 in Indianapolis. My favorite band is No Doubt! I just LOVE them! Well, Gwen Stefani will be in Indy on 6/3, and I AM GOING!!! I wonder how skinny I will be by then?

 

[harleygirl]

OMG dis I forgot to tell you and Dragon - whilst (that ones for you JO! ) we were on the downhill between mi 1 and 2, I got passed my a little ole lady who was prolly at least in her 70's!!! Sheila and I had to laugh at ourselves!!!

Oh and Peeps just so you know - this was a 5K and a 10K - and this one dude lapped us, then ran back the worng wa to meet his buddy and passed us again!!!

[eeyore45]

Count me in too! QUESTION.....If we all get to go, can we plan one of those cool grand gathering events like the Illuminations dinner or sumpn....if some folks are game!!!

Grand Gatherings info

THAT SOUNDS LIKE FUN!! You plan it!!

(I've always been good at delagating!!)

Pigget what's the count?

Here's a map of the course for the half on Sat, the Full is on Sunday -
http://adisneyworldsports.disney.go.com/media/dwws_v0220/en_US/pdf/07MarathonCourseMap.pdf

It starts and finishes in Epcot, they say the worst part is the end when you have to run thru Epcot's World Showcase - its before it opens, so no one there to cheer you when you need it most - that's why dh is planning on running by my side... (yep, "awwwww" I do love him!!)

I think I read the race begins around 8am - goes out Epcot down that one road over to MK (am I sure I want to do this???!! )

and hills???

The run down of hills as I remember them in order of appearance:
Half: 1 or 2 overpasses in the first mile (depends on exact placement of the starting line) + downhill (270 degree turn) ramp. Contemporary Hill (down then up--short but steep), small incline up and into the castle and down the ramp, repeat of the 270 degree turn ramp--but up hill, 1 or 2 overpasses to possibly include exit ramp.
