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

[HockeyKat]

Kitties are feeling better. The one I was most worried about has perked up and is eating again. The vet thinks it's just a bit of a tummy bug but even so, it's worrysome to find your kitty just lying around.

Glad the kitties are feeling better!! Mine is my baby so I understand how upsetting a sick one can be.

Winkers - don't feel bad, I am the biggest/heaviest at my gym. Everytime I go there I see it but I don't care anymore because I'm there doing what I have to do for me not for those other people in the gym. I go to a woman's gym because I don't want guys seeing me in my sweatpants and T-shirt walking on the treadmill but we can do it. Get better first, then work on the exercise.

We have mixed kinds at mine, but I think that is because I go at lunch and the place is pretty empty. Although I do occasionally see coworkers since it is so close to work.

I just look at the thin ones and think, if I keep coming here someday that will be me. And as far as the guys go, eh, I don't care if someone sees me in my ripped up old t-shirt, shorts, and super-red face (I am very pale and turn bright red when I exercise).

EEEEK! I'm not weighing today either. Ok, no, I did weigh myself, but the number is SO bad it is now considered my BEFORE weight...and it's 5 lbs more than last year's before weight! Now I have a point of reference. I also need a reasonable goal.

Which is coming OFF my carcass soonly.

I'm geared up. I've got my lower carb grocery list being made. On my grocery list is a notebook to blog in. I need to make a chart (like a ticker?) to serve as a visual. I want to be next years' Punkin or WIDF who are both my heros

I'M IN THE ZONE


Oh ya, I'm hereby making THIS my first stop every day, I PROMISE!!!!! Funny how my weight snuck up when I neglected this thread!

This thread is great for keeping on track... I find I neglect it when I am eating bad, and then keep eating bad because I am neglecting the thread...

I want to be punkin too!!

I'm going to have to stop playing around and get back on track! I'd just rather sit at the computer all day and chat!!

I have a little over a year before my first born gets married. and everyone around me is a healthy weight! so knock me in the head, and make me remember I am worthy. I am.

I also have not weighed in - I thought I was 10# overr my start weight on the thread.

YOU ARE WORTHY. Absolutely. I am so glad to see you posting again.


I have not weighed in yet because I ate lunch before remebering to do so. I may weigh in later today because lately it seems that I weigh less later in the day than first thing in the morning.

I would try and restart this week but I know the weekend will be a loss due to family Christmas celebration on Sunday, then NY Eve. I have done better Wed-Fri though not perfect.

I am off to do my Christmas shopping now... hope everyone has a great day!!

Pakey- me and spongie will be in line at midnight with all the teenagers too

Ok, got my movie theatre contraband at Walmart:

lightly salted almonds
Southbeach bars in Chocolate (just in case!)
sugar free Twizzlers (just in case)
screw-cap diet wild cherry pepsi


All in my "big purse"


And, by the way, not only is Valentines being set up at Walmart as we speak, but also the DIET stuff!!!! You know what I mean: palets of Slim Fast and Hydroxycut and myAlli books all at the ready...


I've completely talked myself out of wanting any popcorn, lite or "real". It's still a carb. I can pass. I can't even get any for Norah because if and when she doesn't finish it, I'll have to do my duty and not waste it....

 

[aldisneygrl]

Thanks for the cold/allergies suggestions. DH told me to use some of his Nasonex last night. Well, I haven't sneezed in over 12 hours! I still feel the drainage down the back of my throat, but I think I am on the mend.

Now all I have to do is finish a 5K in less than 45 minutes, right Sandy?

gotta run, my MIL is taking the kids to see Fred Claus tonight, and then is having them sleepover. The DIS is down tonight, so I'm gonna spend some time with DH.

 

[Toot Sweet]

Howdy, DISappearing Peeps!

Mind if I join in? I just started Atkins today and I have 100 pounds to lose!! It seems so overwhelming! But I have set a mini-goal to lose one dress size by my next WDW ladies trip on Feb 5th!

So anyway, I'm Bonnie, I'm 36, I live in Northern VA; I am married with three DD's, ages 14, 10 and 6. I teach pre-K, and I love it!

I'm looking forward to getting to know all of you!

Wendy, I pop one of those pop-secret 100 calorie bags at home and sneak it in in my purse. It's not the same but it's better than the theater stuff and I believe in most states it's against the law to go to a movie and not eat popcorn.

BTW--I finished the 3rd vampire book and now I'm like the rest of the fanatics and have to wait impatiently for the 4th one. It's all my cousin and I talked about on Christmas Eve when we got together.

Which vampire books might those be? My DD14 is ALL into some vampire series right now. Wonder if it is the same one you are reading? She said they are making a movie about it.

Hi Bonnie. I'm Faith (nickname is Pakey). First welcome to the peeps. We're normally a very dedicated group here but I've found out that Christmas isn't a good time to keep us peeps in line. We are all doing a Valentines Challenge where we say how much we want to lose by then. Aaron is our challenge monitor and he will post our losses. We weigh on Friday mornings out here. Just post your loss, not your weight.

The books are the Twilight series. Our thread leader here, Utah Mama (Wendy) recommended them and Spongie chimed in with her praise of them. My aunt had already been trying to get my cousin and I (we are in our 50's) to read them too. So after Wendy gave her endorsement, we started reading them and got hooked. I'm sure these are the same books your daughter is reading. They are very addictive to all ages.

So just talk away out here. I'm a newer peep too, not one of the original gang, but everyone here is so amazing, friendly, supportive and some are awfully funny too. They make trying to lose weight a lot of fun which I never thought I'd say.

Hi Pakey! I just asked DD and Twilight IS the series she loves so much! She told me I need to read it too. Maybe, now that I know that other adults like the series, I just might!

Where in California are you from? My DH grew up in Torrance. I am originally from Las Vegas, but moved to No. VA a year and a half ago. I have been to DL a LOT, but only been to WDW 4 times.

Thanks for the welcome!

Danielle

After your cable guy story (which I'm retelling to everyone here at work), you have free pass from me to eat whatever you want. Enjoy that last piece of pecan pie.


Wendy and Spongie--as soon as I'm done dissing here I'm heading over to Twilightmom to get my Edward fix. My cousin and I are already joking that when the new book comes out, we'll be standing in line at midnight the night before with a bunch of teenagers waiting to get in and buy it.

whoooo hooo i was on that sight for a bit

Pakey- me and spongie will be in line at midnight with all the teenagers too

i just got that book for christmas...i am going to go read some now

 

[pigget74]

Count me in for the challenge. I would like to shed 7 pounds by Valentines. I have no clue when I will fit in working out, but hopefully I will.

DS had oral surgery today. He has 2 teeth that will not come in so they had to go find them and attach wire and a chain to each. In 3 weeks they will attach that to his braces and over time will pull the teeth down. He was in some pain and gave him some meds and now he seems to be doing better. He leaves in 2 days to go do some work on some homes on the Gulf coast that were affected by KATRINA. His Boy Scout Troop is going along with about a dozen members of our church including DH.

SWEETIE!!!!!

Yes you can join us! You are gonna fit in perfectly!!!!

Don't let another day go by without starting the Twilight series by Stephenie Meyer. Yes I spelled Stephenie correctly. I'm sure that's what your dd is reading. They are making a movie about it. But, you may want to do your chores and feed your family first! HUH?????

YOU will love it, I promise! "YOU" as in any one reading this post.

Anywho, WELCOME Bonnie! You'll need to post a picture of you (a recent one) in a bathing suit, preferable a bikini. DON'T worry, we all had to do it.


So I'm back from the movies! Saw Enchanted again. I also have the CD on replay all day. I LOVE it!

AND, did y'all know you can get BOO'd off the stage with Guitar Hero III? Heh, heh. I just KNOW, that's all!

 

[Sparkie]

Hello PeePs! Remember me? Yes, its your friend Sparkie the backslidden PeeP. I have regained and also had a positive gain since I spoke with you last. Too much time focusing on everyone but me. So what to do?

Start over of course.

I'm going back to weight watchers. I have joined a team at work and all of well most of the girls I work with (we told the girl who weighs a mere 120 that she was too skinny to join) We are participating in "Scale Back Alabama" It is a contest that starts Jan 10 and last for 10 weeks. All members on the team are supposed to lose 10 pounds in 10 weeks. There are support groups, nutrition lessons and our hospital offers a discounted membership to Gold's Gym. If individually you lose your 10 pounds you are entered into a drawing for $250. If each team member loses 10 then all of you are entered into a drawing for $1,000 EACH. (Hello Mickey Money!!)

My overall goal is to lose 45 pounds. But that seems too overwhelming right now. So I think I will just take it 5 at a time. I also have a little more incentive. I went to the doctor in Nov. and my blood pressure is elevated. Sometimes a little and sometimes a lot.

So enough about me-

How has everyone else been?

And could my English friend explain the measure of weight called a "stone"? I've been watching you are what you eat and it is based out of the UK and all the weight measurements are in stones.

THat is an awesome program. I would try that in a heartbeat. Good luck to all of yoy losing 10 pounds.

 

[lexmelinda]

GOOD MORNING!

I see I'm not the backslidden peep dragging back in here!

So good to see you, Sparkie!

Welcome, Bonnie!

I'll be back on board on Wednesday. Let me get all the cookies/pie out of the house first. I'm not taking it to the garbage! NO!

Where's Lynda? Has she checked in lately? She and Josh are going to Disneyland next week.

HAVE A GOOD WEEKEND, EVERYONE!

 

[mousehouselover]

Oh, and as for the Christmas challenge? How about we forget that ever happened, ok?

Had to let you know this made me laugh. Not the haha we really flubbed this up but the 'oh my goodness, what were we thinking trying to lose during the holidays? Are we all nuts??!?!' laugh. I'm on board for V-day though!!

When I read this I pictured the boats in IASW bottoming out and Disney having to dig a deeper canal!

I had to explain to the kids why I almost fell out of my chair and they got a kick out of the visual too!

I am off to take a quick peek at Winkers thread and then I've got to make my grocery list. DH just bought our plane tix for our trip to Denver. We've been watching them for months and finally found them for $130, round trip, non stop this am!!

Having a bottle of water/fake crystal light next to the computer really works. I drank a whole liter already today!

 

[Toot Sweet]

Hi Peeps! I survived my first day on Atkins and I think I already have ketosis breath. Is that possible? It is NASTY!!

Bonnie: You can just scroll back through the thread. The bikini picks are all there, somewhere.

Enough talk about peacan pie! I haven't had a piece yet!

Of pie!

Where are you buying these books? I've looked my DH has looked. Nope, can't find them. Meijer, Target, Walmart, I even looked in the Grocery Store.

Stephenie Meyer, Twilight Series, right?

Have a great Saturday everyone!
