DISappearing Peeps...A fastpass to THIN! Part 3

[Wonders10]

He seems like a nice kid and he probably is terrific at karaoke but he stinks on the show. I am mystified. Maybe people are voting for him as a joke

by the way, don't vote for sanjaya. the kid's cute, but he's lacking desperately in the talent department and i feel bad for him that he's still even there embarassing himself. you guys know that there's a website (something like votefortheworst.com) that's asking people to vote for him so that the worst singer will win AI, right? i feel bad for him because i'm sure he knows about it and the only reason he's still there is because he's the worst singer! people are so mean.

Yes, my mom heard this on the Today show or something. Howard Stern of all people has started the campaign or is backing it or something to keep him in the contest and hopefully get him to win! I don't watch the show but my mom does so I catch bits and pieces. Umm, last night's performance alone was enough for me to kick him out the door. But I do feel sorry for him because he has to know that probably the only reason he is still there is because a bunch of people think its a joke to keep him in the contest. (oops, just re-read your quote punkin and I said pretty much the same thing )

And I've had serioud DIS withdrawals all day. I came home around 4 and wanted to check on my Peeps and I couldn't get on til now. My computer was acting really slow so I just rebooted so maybe that was part of the problem. Either way, I'm glad its back. The DIS has become my security blanket. I didn't know what to do with myself .

I don't know how I missed this thread before but it seems like something I need to be reading. I haven't owned a scale in YEARS but for some idiotic reason put one on our wedding registry. It's not a good idea to weigh yourself a few weeks before your wedding..especially when under tons of stress due to your lovely future in-laws. Anyway, I need to lose 20 pds in order to be where I was 3 years ago. I know I can do it. I have become super lazy and haven't watched what I have been eating. I do ok at work but then we go out way to much during the week or on weekends. I would also like to lose this weight before the fall. We are hoping to try for our first baby this summer and I realize then once that happens it will be harder to get the weight off for good! So here are my goals....it's a matter of just making myself do it. I've been blaming the NY winter for not exercising. Ugh.

1) Running 4x's a week, Walking 2x's
2) Limit fast food to bi-weekly (hey..it can sometimes be 3x's a week with the wedding stress!!)

so i'm just curious.....how many of you are american idol nerds like me?

Welcome.. Good luck with the wedding. I remember those days. I was happy then. Anyway, I digress.... you have found a great place to be... very supportive people here.

Pull up a stool and sit awhile.. we are glad to have ya!!!

Good evening. Went to the Dr. today - saw and heard the heartbeat--nothing like that in the world. Everything looks geat and I am officially 10weeks and 5 days. Due date is October 13th but will have it earlier because of induction. Go back in a month. He did ask me, "Now Heather I am a little slow on the math and can't figure this out, but is this a DISNEY baby? I thought that was so funny--replied nope this is not a souvie! Got to love his sense of humor. He knows that we are Disney nuts and has asked me opinions at other appt. Anyway--need to get some rest. Have a good one.

Easy to catch up today. Sorry the boards were down.

BTW have I mentioned...........23 days OMG I can't wait can you tell, yes I know also the hours and miuntes but thought that you guys may find me odd?? Imagine me odd????

I have been a wee busy doing the little sneaking shopping!! Am I there yet?? No...how about NOW?????

I'm so excited for you. I have to get vicarious thrills, since our WDW trips are only every 4-5 years.

by the way, don't vote for sanjaya. the kid's cute, but he's lacking desperately in the talent department and i feel bad for him that he's still even there embarassing himself. you guys know that there's a website (something like votefortheworst.com) that's asking people to vote for him so that the worst singer will win AI, right? i feel bad for him because i'm sure he knows about it and the only reason he's still there is because he's the worst singer! people are so mean.

And all I can say about Sanjaya is, bless his little heart! That rolling stones song he sang last night!!! I was laughing so hard! And the little girl they kept showing who was sobbing! Too funny.

I don't feel sorry for Sanjaya. I think he's having the time of his life. When else could he have little girls crying over the joy of being close to him. Unlike the truly talented people who get kicked off and then go on to sell millions of albums, this is his one shot, so I'm glad he's enjoying it. And yes, he looks like Mowgli.


I'm not totally off the wagon, but my is trailing in the dust. I went to Macaroni Grill with a friend, and tried to do right. I had the insalata blu, just over 600 calories, 2 small pieces of bread, 150 calories, a cup of tomato basil tortellini soup, 115, not too bad, but then we split the tiramisu 1000 calories in the whole thing, so 500 for my half . On the bright side, that's the lowest calorie dessert on their menu. the cheesecake is over 1600 calories!

Eventer98- . If nobody's said it, please post a little bio about yourself, a picture of you in a bathing suit (I don't know why you can't find that kind of picture of any other Peeps on here , crazy Dis Board), and seriously, post your birthday. We like to celebrate around here. (I forgot to say I love your avatar. Humina humina!)

Alright, I'm climbing back on the wagon. I'm getting on the exercise bike right now. It's a start, right?

Glad everything went well at the Dr.!! Hope the rest of your week goes better. What did your dr. say about the migraines?

Hey Noni!!!!

Hello to all the new peeps!!! Welcome, just jump right in and post your swimsuit pic!

Wow, only 2 pages to read - a first. The Dis has been down a couple of times this week.

Leaving tomorrow, so I will check in when possible. Darn, I guess I will miss weigh in. Hate it!

 

[AnnNan]

Actually, I have been back since Sunday. I kept thinking I would catch up a little and then post, but every night I would sit down - and promptly fall asleep with the computer in my lap before I managed to post. Hope everyone is doing well! I had a great trip, but I'm really glad to be home. I lost weight while I was gone and am hoping it was kind of time to lose some based on what I had been doing and will be able to keep it off. I guess we'll see. I haven't had a coke today at all. And the last couple of nights instead of my regular "midnight snack" of a coke and peanut butter crackers I had plain crackers and water - no coke!!

This trip had/has me so out of all my regular routines that I've found it to be a good opportunity to try to make changes. I've been eating more fruit and drinking more water and I walked tonight - on my non exercise night!

so anyway I just wanted to say Hi!

 

[lexmelinda]

HAPPY THURSDAY, EVERYBODY!!!

HELP! I bit down on my fork yesterday by accident and chipping (but just barely) my two front teeth! It's hardly noticable but very rough (to me). Should I go to the dentist or am I just gonna have to get used to it and hope it smooths in time?

Noni....Glad you checked in. Sounds like you're doing much better.

Stacey....HAVE FUN!

Fidge....Love to do the sleath shopping! Ain't it great?

Eventer98..... Please post often. This is a fast moving thread with lots of support, advice, and accountability. Tell us about yourself!

Heather.....Glad you got to hear the heartbeat! The baby is looking more baby like on your time line, too!

AnnNan.....Check the posts on March 15th. Hope it was happy.

WHERE IS EVERYBODY? SANDY? HARLEY? UTAH? SANDY? TINKABELLA? DISMOM? DRAGONFLY? LYNDA? AND THE RESTA YA? CHECK IN, PLEASE!

HAVE A FABULOUS DAY!

Basically he said suck it up, but not in those words. All I can take is like anaprox (which is candy to me) and stuff like that or Darvacet. I asked him if there was anything else and he said nope. He did suggest cutting it in half so I could function at work or home--it should be just enough to take the edge off the migraine until I can sleep. I will try that. Last year I was seeing him every 4 weeks because we were trying to find sonething that works--he does take them serious, but I can;t take anything with baby. HE did say by week 18 they should not be as bad or frequent.

I know that if you went they would file the teeth and possbily want to put a cap on the bottom--it would look your tooth. I would take the wait and see approach, just because I cannot stand for my teeth to be filed--to many horrible memories from braces

Glad to hear that everything went well at the doctor. Was there a fast heartbeat or a slow heartbeat? You know, for determining the baby's sex.

Welcome Home. Hope you had a great time. Duh, you said that already.

I have some great news. I guess my sister has had enough of my talking about Disney and has decided to go with us when we go back in Dec. 09. I know that it is still some time away but she has to start saving now because there will be 6 of them and 3 of her children are adults (according to Disney).

 

[pigget74]

The heartbeat was 165. So I am hoping that means a boy. We will see--We are just happy right now that it was strong, but still are hoping for another boy. One girl is enough for us to handle. She is 9 going on 30.

 

[WI_DisneyFan]

so i'm just curious.....how many of you are american idol nerds like me?

I sure am. Melinda is my favorite of all of them. Chris Sligh used to be my favorite guy because of his bluesy audition (I'm a big fan of the blues), but I've soured on him lately. I am really digging Blake Lewis. He's probably my 2nd favorite overall this year behind Melinda.

HI....definately need to dump some fat...

Just found your thread...
Maybe this thread is the ticket..

Anyway...just read about hoodia....
I saw an above poster just tried it....
anyone else use that....or anything else...

I know there are no magic products....a little edge would be
nice though...
I will start reading back through this thread...
Thanks
Kerri

Welcome! You'll find plenty of support here. How about a little introduction?

Who's going in Sept. if there's free dining??Besides me, Lynda, Bee, Jo?

I'm going, whether there is free dining or not. I'm hoping there is so I don't have to pay for the dining plan. But I'll probably end up getting it either way.

yup, i watch idol too....

Currently i am enjoying Blake, Jordin, Melinda and Lakisha the most...My boyfriend likes Chris Sligh, but i think he is a bit pompous IMHO.

Please tell me i am not alone in saying that Sanjaya NEEDS to go..he is way too Michael Jacksonish for me..not in a good way.

Funny you should mention that. When my wife and I talk about the show, I call him "Indian Michael Jackson" because I don't even want to recognize that he's on the show. I agree that he has to go. He makes my ears sad.

Hello to all the new peeps!!! Welcome, just jump right in and post your swimsuit pic!

Trust me, you don't want to see me in a swimsuit, unless it is one of these...

 

[TwinkieMama]

Hi!!!

Do you remember me?

How is everything going? My house continues to be on the market and I continue to "reward" my self with snacks so I am ba-ack. I have gained 2 lbs so my hope is to get back to my goal weight in the next couple of weeks.

I have noticed that I have different bad habits this time around- so I need to work on making healthy choices and not using food as a reward.

I weighed this am and was planning on starting my diet tomorrow but decided that good choices needed to start now!

I ate raisin bran for breakfast and now I am off to exercise and drink some water!

Have a great day all!

WELCOME eventer!
Good news pigget!

Good Morning All! at least it's morning. It has been an extremely long night. We had thunderstorms all night, which normally would not bother me. I use to like storms, but last night the kids were up and the dog leans against the bed panting, she shakes the whole bed. Anyone want a dog?

Today is at least an easier day for me. I only have one school to go to, and the class is only 10 kids to teach music and movement to.

Has anyone else got the new cooking light magazine. The cake on the front looks really good. I'm thinking of making it for Easter. I just browsed though it yesterday, but looks like some really good recipes.

Eventer98 I am new too. This is a great group.

Lexmelinda my DD did the same thing to her front two teeth. Our Dentist just file the teeth so that they were smooth.

 

[UtahMama]

There are SUGAR FREE Peeps, Peeps!!!!

((SHUT up!!!!))


I must have them and eat their little heads!

Has anyone tried them yet? Can they possibly be any good?

Assignment: get sugar-free Peeps and report back! LOL!!!

 

[MA pigletfan]

I get the migraines also and have a suggestion. Try drinking Gatorade when you feel one coming on-I don't know why but it does seem to help.

 

[lexmelinda]

IMPORTANT OFF-TOPIC QUESTION...

I have to feed 100 people again this Sunday and I'm thinking of trying Overbrook Farms Chicken & Pasta Con Queso. They have it at Sam's Club. Has anybody tried this??? I hate to buy enough for 100 if I don't know it's good. Thanks!

I also have a call in to the dentist. Thanks for your responses!

We had thunderstorms all night, which normally would not bother me. I use to like storms, but last night the kids were up and the dog leans against the bed panting, she shakes the whole bed. Anyone want a dog?

my older dog shakes like a leaf when there are thunderstorms. and he has seizures every now and then (not from the thunderstorms, but just randomly), so i'm always afraid he's going to have a seizure over a stupid storm! it breaks my heart.
