heya peeps i hope everyone's goal for weight loss is set in motion , i am so sick "i am just one stomach flu away from my goal weight" (that is for you UM and the devil wears prada) sorry i am not on here a whole lot, i have all my kids home from school for another 2 wks ... just checkin in .

 

[punkin413]

"i am just one stomach flu away from my goal weight"

"i'm on this new diet......well, i don't eat anything and then when i feel like i'm going to faint, i eat a piece of cheese." i love that movie! and emily is my favorite character.

 

[winkers]

I didn't make it to the gym today. I woke up, got the kids ready for their first day back at school after winter break..........and then they canceled school because of 2 freakin inches of snow! GRRRRR!

So I took the kids sledding. Hiking up a hill in snow 20 times has got to count for something! I even did a double back flip off my sled trying to avoid a pine tree. I got a round of applause for that one.

So, tomorrow I WILL be at the gym signing up!

Going up the hill in snow is much harder than working out at the gym! And a double black flip?!? You go girl!!!

I can't believe they cancelled school for 2 inches of snow!!! And here in Buffalo we are at 62 degrees at 11:30 at night!!! In JANUARY!!!! What is with this weather????

 

[dwheatl]

Give me kids anyday, but my peers

I'm still praying for a miracle for Christi, and praying for her family too. I'm right there with you on speaking to adults Hope Joshua feels better soon.

My husband & I may be going back to Disney World in June for our 10-year wedding anniversary!

Congrats. Let WDW know it's your anniversary. AT DL we got badges and a free (and dreamy) dessert. Not that any peeps care about dessert

Pakey - I'm crossing my fingers that it's just scar tissue or something.

I had my "wellness" appointment this morning and I was fully expecting her to be upset at me, but she turned out to be somewhat pleased. My last appt was 7/11/07, and I have gone down only 2 lbs, but 2.5% body fat since then. Actually, since my highest weight appt w/ her (3/14/07), I have gone down 21.5 lbs and 6% body fat. And I had already lost 15 from my highest weight when I had that appt.

You're doing so great. You should be very proud of how well you are doing.

Allie - Thats so cool about your niece, has she been to London before? Its great, Im about 3 hours away by fast train and I love to go and do all the touristy sightseeing!

Oh goody! Have i mentioned that DH and I are starting to plan a trip there for this summer?

2 MORE SLEEPS AND WE ARE OFF TO DISNEY!!!!!

for you Allie!

Dsis gets out of the hospital tomorrow. She has to take a month off of work. They told her she was lucky it wasn't fatal. Her house is right around the corner from my work, so I'll be able to stop by and help her on my way home.

Let's keep the momentum going! Stay peepish!

 

[lexmelinda]

GOOOOOD MORNING!

Amy & Harley....Tell Shawna HAPPY BIRTHDAY for us! I hope she'll stop by sometime and say hello!

Faith! I did NOT miss your post! Aren't there suspicious things on tests all the time? I hope everything is just fine. You're added to my prayer list. Glad the hair is better.

Dawn....Amazing on the measurements! Good work!!!

Cherie....They canceled school here for about 1/2 inch of snow last week! The story was that it was the below zero wind chill.

Gayle....Good news on the new job! I enjoy being busy and then looking up and seeing that it's time to go! Keep that commission in mind!

EVERYBODY....:WAVE2:

HAVE A GREAT DAY!

 

[pigget74]

That doesn't sound like a bad summer at all and now you have lots of time to look forward to WDW. BTW, I may be able to take those DVC points off your hands if you still want to rent them this year.


I am sorry your DS is sick; 103.8 is pretty high. I hope he will be feeling better soon. Good luck with the presentation. I hate speaking in front of large groups and have done reallly poorly with that task in the past. Embarassing...really.[/COLOR]

PM what points you are interested in and when you want to go.
His fever finally broke at 7:30 last night and he has yet to getup this morning. He has a massive ear infection with a slight sinus infection with bronchitus.

I took him to school today and he was walkng so slow and I started to worry if I pushed him too fast to go to school. I asked him what was wrong and he mumbled under his breath that him being with me was embarrassing. I felt so bad, I didn't want to embarrass him so I just walked ahead and acted like I wasn't with him. What I really wanted to do was hug and kiss him in front of everyone. But that would be middle school humiliation. So, he's doing good.

You are so much nicer than me. DS did that to me one year at his school so I walked up to him and plantes a big kiss on his cheek and gave a big squeeze. Now whenever he sees me he gives me big hug and love ya mom----even when friends are present. He told me it was so I would not make a scene lol---and all this time I thought is was because he loved me soooo much.

And I'm really stressing over it. You'd think I'd find something better to stress about huh? Like the fact that my mammo/chest x-rays showed something and I'm worried that I'm going to start "the process" of fighting cancer again this year when I barely my last battle 4 months ago. But thinking about Edward is so much more pleasant.

Praying for you.


Sorry I did not post last night. After work Andrew had Court of Honor at scouts and it was a dinner. I had a major migraine by the time I got home. Joshua is better I think. He has not woke yet so I will know more when he gets up. The presentation went very well yesterday. My professor came by and said that we did an excellent job. All the teachers were supportive--at least they looked it. Even if I walked by and saw there to do list--I would have been doing the same thing. Off to get ready--the kids go back today.

2 MORE SLEEPS AND WE ARE OFF TO DISNEY!!!!!

can ya' tell I'm a little excited? DD is getting excited too! She has never flown, so she is excited about the plane too. Hope she doesn't freak at the last minute like Sandy's daughter. I'm thinking she is gonna be fine. Mainly 'cause I don't have any more room in my body to worry about anything else. I'll be happy when I am checking into Pop and saying "yes I'm aldisneygrl", and I would LOVE my room to be in the Lady building.

My bottled water arrived today, so that will be waiting on me along with my free fridge (thanks to the budget board fridge swaps ). I'm still doing though. I think we are gonna need another suitcase since it looks like we'll need long sleeves at night, and shorts during the day. Oh, the I will have when we get home. Who cares, we will have been to Disney!

Packages at checkin are cool and make you all important and stuff. Try washing clothes for a family of six when you return. We go during December and have to multi pack too.

i have watched it 3 x's today laying in bed i just was too weak to change the channel i hear something new every time. i love where she is in the hospital devouring the pudding

Misty! Get better. Wendy quick get this lady some vitamins!


Crazy 60 degree weather over here. We even had tornado watches and big thunder storms last night. Usually we are in the middle of a deep freeze. We still have february to go.

Someone keep me off of the scale! When I see the numbers go up that's when I mess up. I'm following the plan and it goes up for no reason. Makes me all messed up inside.

Warning! Warning! Girl Talk Here:I think its cause I'm on my 3rd week of AF. Going to the DR. today. Actually my first since the baby was 11/30 and it has been hanging around ever since, just makes an appearance every few days and then takes a breakfor a day. But the last 3 weeks it's just here AND IT WON'T GO AWAY!

Have a great skinny day everyone!

 

[DisneyLaura]

Pakey Hope the mammo/chest x-ray is nothing; I wouldn't worry about the weight thing until you get back from WDW either

my measurements from january 2007:
waist - 32.75 inches
hips - 46.5 inches
thigh - 27.5 inches

my measurements today:
waist - 26.75 inches
hips - 42.5 inches
thigh - 24.25 inches

That's great girl,

Weighed in for Scale Back Alabama today. They wouldnt let me weigh nakie- I just dont understand why.

I sometimes joke with my leaders at WW about getting naked on the scale


Aaron So cool that you watch with "girl" shows and I think it's awesome that your hear with us.

I had my "wellness" appointment this morning and I was fully expecting her to be upset at me, but she turned out to be somewhat pleased. My last appt was 7/11/07, and I have gone down only 2 lbs, but 2.5% body fat since then. Actually, since my highest weight appt w/ her (3/14/07), I have gone down 21.5 lbs and 6% body fat. And I had already lost 15 from my highest weight when I had that appt.

I really need to get in my head that gradual weight loss is a good thing, and not beat myself up for not having made my goal by now.

And on another good note, I beat the CRAP out of that elliptical trainer today. I did 2 miles in 19:30, 2.5 miles total in my 25 minutes. Plus I did 40 minutes of weights. I have started a new thing which is doing the weights first... I seem to have more energy that way for some reason.

Hope everyone has a great and skinny day!!

Yeah for you too.

2 MORE SLEEPS AND WE ARE OFF TO DISNEY!!!!!

Yeah. No I can't at all that you're excited

heya peeps i hope everyone's goal for weight loss is set in motion , i am so sick "i am just one stomach flu away from my goal weight" (that is for you UM and the devil wears prada) sorry i am not on here a whole lot, i have all my kids home from school for another 2 wks ... just checkin in .

Poor Spongie. Feel better soon

I didn't make it to the gym today. I woke up, got the kids ready for their first day back at school after winter break..........and then they canceled school because of 2 freakin inches of snow! GRRRRR!

That's good exercise is right. And a backflip off your sled

here in Buffalo we are at 62 degrees at 11:30 at night!!! In JANUARY!!!! What is with this weather????

We are hitting close to 60 degrees today. Crazy but I will take it anyday. I hate the cold

Packages at checkin are cool and make you all important and stuff. Try washing clothes for a family of six when you return.

We have a family of 5 and I feel when we are home I am always doing laundry

Someone keep me off of the scale! When I see the numbers go up that's when I mess up. I'm following the plan and it goes up for no reason. Makes me all messed up inside.

It will come off

Warning! Warning! Girl Talk Here:I think its cause I'm on my 3rd week of AF. Going to the DR. today.

But the last 3 weeks it's just here AND IT WON'T GO AWAY!

So now I am . Is the baby a year on the 30th of Nov? If so I didn't get my AF until DD2 was 13 months old and (sorry Aaron) it was real gross but then skipped a month and now I'm about every 30 days. I breastfeed so that's why I didn't get it until she was 13 months old. Don't know if that's the case with you.

Pigget Hoipe Joshua feels better. Glad his temp went down.

Ok I started DISing at 7:05 am today and now it's 7:53 am and I can finally sit down and respond. Whew! I couldn't get on the computer last nignt because as soon as the kids came home from school, homework, then we had basketball practice and we all went because they were having a practice game then we got home around 7:15 pm and had to cook and eat dinner. I hate eating that late. Then got the kids ready for bed and then mommy went too. I was tired yesteday because I stayed up to watch Deperate Housewives. Anyway I got to WW's today to weigh in from two weeks off due to the holidays falling on my weigh in day. I'm scared but not scared. If that makes any sense.

Have a good day everyone.

Everyone else and a hi to you
Laura

It is warm here as well. I hate this weathe because with every thunderstorm I am always thinking of tornadoes.

I haven't had a visitor yet, since I am still nursing, but I am getting headaches like crazy. Not sure if it is hormonal or not. Went to bed last night with a doozy of one and it is still here today.


Today I will eat right----I am counting my Mr. Pibb---did not have time to make coffee at home and there is none made here at work yet so I needed som major caffine. Hopefully this will help my head some. For lunch i will have a Smart Ones--5 points and water. Then I will have a snack later today of 100 calories. For supper I am makeing chicken enchiladas--I will count all those as well. I just need to get in all my water.


Joshua is going to work today with DH--he still had a little fever this morning--by tomorrow he should be able to go to school.

Have a good one.

 

[MJMouse]

MJMouse- Welcome back! A lot of us are recommitting and rallying our peeps for support! This is gonna be one great year!

Happy Monday Everyone!!!!

Thanks! Peep support means so much... I often think -- what would a peep do??

Like the fact that my mammo/chest x-rays showed something and I'm worried that I'm going to start "the process" of fighting cancer again this year when I barely my last battle 4 months ago.

Don King hair is now under control. Got a bit of a cut. It's still super dooper ugly though and I can't wait for it to grow long enough for a flat iron. I will not be posting any pics of my new "do".

Weight challenge isn't going well. I'm not gaining any weight. I'm holding steady at 23 lbs total lost (had been at 26 lost before Christmas) but I'm not motivated to work at it and it will take work. I can't get over my sinus cold and my ears are plugged and they hurt so I don't want to eat fruits or drink my water. I want hot things. And chocolate. And I leave for WDW in 6 days so I know how well that weight battle will go.

Pakey/Faith -- I read and re-read your post to make sure I was seeing what I thought I saw. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family -- sometimes I think the limbo of "not knowing" (especially knowing what you know after surviving one round) is the most excruciating time emotionally. We went through a similar scare with my mom (colon cancer) a year after her first bout (well really second, but the first was when she was 22, so it was 30 years later) was diagnosed -- made for some tense Christmas's. Please let us know how you are doing. Feel free to vent/blog/whine/complain as much as you need to in the next few days (well any time really). Know that you have "peeps" across the country (and world) sending prayers and good thoughts your way...

Aaron -- please put me down for 8 lbs by Valentines day... no loss for last week.

hey, peeps......had to share this with you guys. after gym class this morning anna was doing some measurements on a girl who hired her for personal training and she offered to do my measurements. i haven't done measurements since right before i joined this thread. we just measured waist, hips and thighs since i'm not really worried about my arms/chest at this point.

my measurements from january 2007:
waist - 32.75 inches
hips - 46.5 inches
thigh - 27.5 inches

my measurements today:
waist - 26.75 inches
hips - 42.5 inches
thigh - 24.25 inches

i'm not really sure how i should look at this. obviously it's not bad, but i was thinking i had lost more off my hips and thighs. 6 inches off my waist is great except that that's not where i need to lose it!

Those are some AMAZING numbers! You ROCK!



I had a good day yesterday -- 1300 calories, 40 mins on the treadmill, so much water I was drowning. I am still hungry/craving junk, but I know that this too shall pass and I will soon be back to wanting the good stuff (good for me that is...). I just need to be strong for a couple of days. Hoping for nice numbers on Friday!

That totally counts!! We have yet to get enough snow to take the kids sledding. Good luck at the gym.

That is a good day right there I bet the scale will be kind to you this week. I was starving all day yesterday and woke up hungry this morning. I just keep drinking my water (and a morning coffee) in hopes that it will pass.


Once again, no gyym for me last night. I started feeling sick after dinner and thouht I was coming down with the stomach bug that is rampant around here right now. Thankfully, I feel good this morning. Here is my meal plan for the day:
breakfast - weight control oatmeal with blueberries on top and a slice of
vegetarian bacon; coffee with half and half and splenda
Lunch - homemade wrap with vegetarian "chicken" and sliced tomato
about 10 mini carrots, a bag of 100 calorie crackers and a nectarine
Snack - Apple
Dinner - Veggie burger on my 90 claorie tortilla with lettuce and tomato,
staemed broccoli

 

[harleygirl]

morning! SexyLexy i sent a note to Shawna from the Peeps!

Punkin- GREAT JOB! you're such an inspiration

Pakey -

Aldisney and Sandy -


so i had a great day til i got home and for some reason i felt the need to make muffins. well, after i baked them, of course i ate some. sigh. sabotage.
but i rocked at the gym and got a really good leg set in, so i think my cals were about 2300 consumed, and i dont know how many i burned.

today is back on track, except for dinner at the inlaws. pinto beans and cornbread. maybe i'll take a salad to help fill me up so i wont eat so much cornbread.

oh and i wont get to go to the gym tonite bc of dinner at the inlaws. sigh. maybe i'll hit the treadmill later

 

[mousehouselover]

Good morning peeps~

Heather~ I hope the little guy feels better soon. It's been a rough couple of months for y'all with all the sickness in your house.

Monica~ I have girlie issues too. I had my visitor for 6 wks once, now she comes every couple of months........

Misty~ Feel better soon!

Allie~ Have a great trip and good luck with the 5k!

Sandy~ Good luck to you as well! I envy your conviction to get out there and give it a go.

Aaron~ I'm not on the list for the Valentine's Day challenge. I want to lose 5 lbs. No progress yet. (I posted for the list right around Christmas.)

Faith~ I hope everythign turns out ok. It is so scary not knowing what it may be, esp after getting bad news in the past.

I was a very good girl yesterday, I stayed on points and even got on the TM. I made 2 weeks of menus and found a few things I could add so I have a bit more variety. I wasn't hungry and felt good about myself.

I'm loving the unseasonably warm weather. I know it's Jan but it feels like I'm living in the south again. I could live like this for 3-4 mos every winter. 60 degrees, light wind, bit of rain every now and again, that's my idea of winter. (We'd move but the we lose a few benefits that DH gets from being a disabled vet so I'm stuck for a while yet.)

Have a great day peeps!

 

[HockeyKat]

born, that sounds like a good food day!!

MJ, great day yesterday! I hear ya on the hungry thing... I was ready to eat a house last night. The first two weeks on low cal are the worst.

Monica, I hope that the AF thing is just a post-pregnancy thing, and clears up soon! I can't imagine 3 weeks... poor thing!!!

I got really hungry last night after dinner so I snacked too much... probably wound up more like 1300 cals. Here was food:
B: SF Oatmeal (100)
L: South Beach Grilled Chicken Caeser Wrap (230), Activia yogurt(70)
D: Linguini w/ spinach, scallops, broccoli, mushrooms, onions, in a skim milk-based cream sauce thickened w/ a bit of flour and spiced w/ garlic salt, pepper, basil. (650)
S: 1 bag 94% FF popcorn (180), 1 half turkey sandwich (75).

Total for the day, 1305. Could be a bit more, as the linguini mixture was homemade and some of the ingredients could have been mis-measured. Exercise, 25 on the elliptical, 45 min of weight training.

Hopefully today goes a bit better on the calories/hunger!

Hope everyone has a great day!

 

[Sandy321]

Happy Birthday Shawna!!

thanks for all the wishes - I'm a nervous wreck - completely!!

 

[Sandy321]

Monica That's so NOT fun!! and as for Here's a trick I'd like to pass on to you - the landromat!! Yes, you can do 10 loads in 2 large machines (or for us one large, 1 for whites) $5 to wash - then you have TEN dryers - all at once - (25 cents for ten minutes, jeans take 75 cents, sheets 25 cents) Less than $10 - you have a place to fold and I put them away in their own rubbermaid tubs -

1 1/2 hours!! TEN LOADS!! Love it!!

I got a 3 mile run in yesterday - today, I should run, but I'm too nervous, and its raining hard here - maybe when dh comes home I can go to Ballys....

 

[aldisneygrl]

Thanks so much for the well wishes! I got dd a little surprise, that will hopefully keep her encouraged during the race. I am going to say my good bye now, because I have soooo much to do, and really don't need to be on the computer. I will check in when we get back to let you know how we did. I got the from the Ortho. dr. today, so that was good.

Try not to chat too much while I'm gone. Yeah, like that will happen. Good luck on Friday with weigh in, I'm taking a free Disney pass!

Bye everyone! You will all be there with me in spirit!
