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

[monymony3471]

Ok, Ladies and Gents.

I may be off here for a little while. I got "busted" last night when DH came home. I didn't do any cleaning yesterday, and I was on the DIS ALL DAY. Usually DH doesn't mind, but I think it really annoyed him that I didn't get anything accomplished yesterday. The dust in our bedroom is out of control, and that really annoys him.

I need to be better about my DIS time. It needs to be a balance, and right now it is very one sided. I just got obssessed with watching my voting poll. Anyway, if you don't hear from me, that is why. I love you guys!

Next time hand him a dusting rag.

Today has not really been good for me, food-wise. On my way home from class, I stopped at CVS for shampoo, conditioner and toothpaste. That's it. I walked out of there with those things PLUS a package of Reese's Peanut Butter Easter Eggs. You know, that pack of 6? Well I don't have them anymore. At least not where you can see them. They are in my belly. I don't know what my problem is lately. I think I'm getting frustrated with myself because everytime I'm stepping on the scale (when I was being "good") the numbers keep going up! I lost about 10 lbs through starvation when these teeth came out and I do not want to gain all of it back. Last week I expected it but my body should be adjusted by now. I will be so upset if I spent 2 weeks losing 10 lbs only to gain it all back in 2 weeks and have to start all over. Plus AF is on her way. Which means I'm hormonal and grumpy and sappy and hungry all the time!

Had to comment here! I love!!!! those eggs - I ate one the other day. All 6 sounds like my best fantasy!!! That is so something I would have done. I had a bad weekend - girl scout cookies and snappy turtle ice cream. I did better yesterday. Next time do what I do - just buy a single. Because if you buy the pack, you think well...I already blew it so maybe just one more. That is exactly what I do. This is going to be a great week for you! You are such a cutie!

Disney Obsession - your grandson is so gorgeous - must have your genes!


Melinda - Somehow I deleted what I wanted to quote. I have not seen Talladega Nights because it did not look like something I would enjoy. I love Elf!

Good luck with the voting!! I have not been on that board in a long time. Between work, school, family, life, Peeps - there just isn't enough time.

Christmas time is sooooo much fun! We just stayed there right after Thanksgiving and it was awesome. I think that will be the only time we go from now on.

I'm feeling great thanks for asking. I'm actually feeling the baby move. That's pretty cool!

OOHHH....That is the best feeling. I want to go at Christmas time,was it very crowded?

 

[eeyore45]

Good Morning Eeyore.
I think all of the peeps are sleeping in this morning. Ironically, this is one of my 2 days a week that I could potentially sleep in, but I decided not to so that I could get some serious dissing done, and guess what no one is on.

Fran, didnt mean to leave you hanging, I'm actually going to work this week!! :eek1: Dont worry, today only a half day, and dh is planning lunch at home... :whistling smiley not on page one:

Next time hand him a dusting rag.

HERE HERE!!!! Lets get something straight - you're in this for life, and you need the dis for your mental health!! WE ARE NOT FIGMENTS!! We are your peeps, and peeps stand together!! It really does help to dis instead of eat, to get healthy - we need support!! So what if its dusty? Have we not learned anything from the passing of MJ? Life is short (did anyone see Oprah yesterday? She had on some wonderful actresses talking about aging, Nora Ephron wrote a book - basically, when we die is anyone going to regret not working more? Regret not doing more laundry??? NO SIR - we will regret not going to disney more!! In lew (how do you spell lew?) we DIS dagnabit!!

OK about these silly smileys, I hit on them, and they pop up wherever THEY want to be, not where *I* put them!!

Gotta run, kids are coming back - see y'all around 3 ish!!!

Yeah,I am home because I was feeling really bad this morning but now am okay.My DH keeps calling ,I know he is trying to listen if I am tapping the keys or doing laundry.I make myself do thirty minutes of housecleaning then check here.The thing is I want to catch up on some trip reports but that sucks me in big time.Maybe while Rachel is napping.

 

[DisneyObsession]

Fidge...I agree with everyone else. The police should have done something if your son was "shot" at...whether a real gun or BB gun. As for the school authorities...they should completely understand why he was riding your route and that shouldn't be an issue. Sorry, but a Mom's protectiveness needs to be accepted at times like these. My prayers are with you & your family.

My grandson, for his 1st birthday, got his first stomache flu! DD said he's been sick all night! I feel bad and hope it passes quickly. (Thanks for all the comments about him! He actually looks like his Daddy! )

Hope you all are staying warm where you are...here it is 5 degrees! BRRRRRR!! (But Sunny!!! )

 

[daisy_77]

Good morning, PEEPS!

I am all set for a GREAT day! I already have planned in my head what I am going to eat and my workout. I just hope that I can stick to it once my daughter is up and I have to get food ready and her day started too...that is when I start to cave. I also have a problem with late night snacking....I am just going to pour me a nice glass of ice water and DIS. I forget to eat while I DIS.

Wonders10- You have a really good attitude! You only ate a package of Reese's eggs...I mean the damage can't be that bad! Just dust yourself off and start fresh! You are doing awesome!

punkin413- Congrats on losing 4 pounds! That is awesome! Good luck to ya on getting that pretty 5 pound ribbon! It will be yours soon!

Princess Lynda- Thank you for posting what you eat! It gives me some ideas on what to snack on. BTW- you are doing awesome! I like your 15 pound ribbon! I want one!

Madsofa- OMGOsh! You are leaving for disney in 1 day! I am so excited for you..and a bit envious! I hope that you have a great trip! Take lots of pics! Safe travels to you and your family!

lexmelinda- Thank you for the welcome back!

dance2874- Good luck to your friend and her little baby!

dismom9761- I hope that you get to feeling better soon!

UtahMama- I am a night muncher, too. I have to learn to spread out my points through the whole day and not use them all at lunch.

my2boysrtwicethefun- Woohoo! Almost time to book your trip! How exciting!! We went once during the holiday season at WDW and it is soooo pretty how they have it all Christmas-ed out! It is awesome!

aldisneygirl- I was the same way yesterday. We run our business out of our home and he kept coming up to me and asking what I had done today besides play on the computer. Oops! Busted!


Well, I hope that you all have a VERY nice Tuesday! I will check in later!

THis is a "fly By" post sorry !!!!
I havent been around the past few days to check in because we ahd to help my grandparents put my great grandmother in a nursing home. It has been so hard on my Gramma. but she was well onher way to sharing a room with her if she kept up trying to take care of her. She now feels so guilty, it took a few weeks of searching for just the right one, and they finally settled on one that a friend of thiers who is a doctor put his parents into when he had to make that decision. I just hope that the guilt doesnt get to her, it's eating her up.

Anyway, I am finishing up my pretrippie and hopefully will have it posted by tomorrow morning. My oldest DD14,Caylin started golf this week, along with Spring/Summer softball, and DD5, Lexie starterd soccer ( I thought it was starting AFTER our trip) so it has been crazier around here than usual.

I think of you all often, is that weird? I feel as though I KNOW you all in person, "for real" kwim? And even though I havent said it often enough, or post everday, you guys are an inspiration for me, a true support group. Sometimes just reading the posts helps so much and hopefully I will work up the nerve to someday start posting more often.

okay, sorry, how come is it that I don't post often but when I do it's always a mini novel,
love you guys, and BIG HUGS !!!

 

[Wonders10]

Thanks for all of the encouraging words in regards to the Reese's Eggs. I know things like that happen but I had been sooooo good in NOT buying entire bags of junk and bingeing on it. BUT I feel empowered today and I'm going to stick within my points. And get all my water in plus some more.

I have to laugh at all of you saying you spend so much time on the DIS. Instead of bookmarking pages, I just open up 5 different internet explorers and then minimize them when I'm done. Then maximize and refresh to see the new stuff. Anyway, I'm because I have 5!!!! minimized right now - the Peeps, and 4 other DIS threads, mostly trip reports. I think I'm swapping my food addiction for a DIS addiction. Which is actually much more figure flattering.

Anyway, I gotta run - at the schools today. Ugh. I hate it there. Hope everyone has a great day!

 

[pigget74]

Good morning all. I am having an ok week---kind of rushed--have not done one load of laundry. Katie has a GALA at school tonight so it will be another long one. Hopefully when I get home I can start on laundry. I am ready for a change of scenes- and DISNEY is just the place. We leave on Sunday morning early and nothing has been done to prepare for the trip Just a busy week. Will check in later today. Have a good one.

 

[dismom9761]

Daisy,there have been many nights that the Dis has kept me from eating.hope you have a great PEEP day.

Sending prayers to you and your family and hope everything works out with the nursing home.I love your mini novels and look forward to more.

Dis addiction is much better than the food addiction I am battling. No fat and low calorie.

Good morning all. I am having an ok week---kind of rushed--have not done one load of laundry. Katie has a GALA at school tonight so it will be another long one.

I am sooo jealous!!I WANT a change of scenery too....Good luck on getting everything done.

 

[WI_DisneyFan]

Morning! Someone brought in a big box of donuts and other sweets today. And of course it is right where I can see it every time I leave my office. Those donuts look oh-so-good; and wouldn’t you know it there is a chocolate one just waiting to be taken. It is like they do this just to test me. I am doing my darndest to resist, and I know I probably won't eat one. But why, oh why, do they do this to me? Why not bring in a nice bowl of fruit instead? Or better yet, some broccoli or cauliflower (or even brocco-flower). I know there is no way I would ever eat that, so there'd be no temptation!

OK all I am ready to dish on todays drama, DS about a month ago was shot at not hit but shot at by one of our lovely new nieghbors he is a boy 3 yrs older than DS and had punched ds last year on the bus. My DS is a very highly functioning child with ADHD and really works hard not to be known. I never get home when the bus was getting out and was 10 minutes behind I learned from nirhgors that my DS had been being bullied and refused to ride the bus.

I asked the transportation director if DS could go on van with me and she said no way. I have been taking DS anyway, he has an appointment with his dcotor on March 20th and figured I could "get"away with taking him myself. If I told you how upset he was vomitting sleepless and children that are healthy that would be a mess but DS it sent hiim whirling!

At the time of the incident I reported to our police the state troopers and they otld me I should keep the peace and it was when my son was wlaking the dog so "maybe" the boy was frightened . I must post pics of my scary pups!!!

ANyway I said ok but thought the police intervention would have done something but it just aggravated matters more.

Bottom line, DS was standing where I told him NOT to!!!! So the vice principal came out and I am in alot of trouble. I have never done anything taht gave the school a moments pause, I lvoe my kids and its not DS fault I jsut should have figured soemthing else out. It is impoissible to get someone to watch your child at 6:000 in the morning and thats when I head out to start my run.

OK so the sad truth is I was in the wrong and am praying that my superiors have a bit of mercy. I have a docotrs note stating how DS needs to be off the bus until things change.

so thats the poop! I made a mess of a sticky situation and am praying "God's Will" I hope I accpet it!!!

Fidge - Don't be so hard on yourself! I can't really say what I would have done since I don't have any kids. But, I can almost guarantee you that this is how my parents would have handled it. First, they would have gone to the other kid's parents and raised holy hell for keeping a gun in the house where the kid could get it. Then if the parents didn't swear on a stack of bibles that it would never happen again, they would have gone to the authorities and reported them. And if the authorities did nothing, then they would have raised such a stink that they cops would be begging my parents to let them escort us to school every day until it was resolved. And while this was all going on, I'm sure my mom would have been driving me to and from school every day.

And that is the part I don't understand. Who are these school officials that think they know how to protect your son better than you do? In my opinion, the schools should always concede to the parents’ wishes when it comes to the child's safety. And since they refused to do that, you had to take matters into your own hands. In my mind, there is absolutely nothing wrong with that.

Of course, this might be the entirely wrong approach. But I guess all I am saying is that you did what you thought was best for your son. And there is really no faulting you at all for that.

So, emailed future dil, and she is coming to dinner tomorrow (going to try and make a bricole for her!!) and I bought her 2 wedding planning books... I am blessed that she is letting me dream with her, she is from a large family 3 sisters have already gotten married, and her mom isnt real loving toward her, but she said "he's your first born, I am so glad you are excited, I cant even explain how happy that makes me' uh oh... give me an inch, and I'll try and stay behind the line.. but she may need a ruler to smack me from time to time.. I'll try and contain my joy, and excitement!! ( I went online and googled, andread at knot.com, and found a wedding expo, and she sent me a link to the venue she hopes to have the whole wedding/reception at, and I emailed her and asked if we could bid out the hotel as a convention to get her and ds a free room!!)

TMI...

How exciting! This sounds like what my wife did when we got married. I am one of three boys, so my wife knew that my mom would never get to experience helping a daughter plan a wedding. So she included my mom on everything. Dress shopping, flowers, decorations, the whole ball of wax. It has been a year and a half since our wedding, and my mom still talks about how much she appreciated my wife including her on the planning. It really meant a lot to her, so I can imagine how happy you are about this.

 

[winkers]

Has anyone heard from Jo? I'm wondering how things are going with her dd's school.

 

[dismom9761]

WI Disneyfan,It is soo hard when someone brings goodies to work.Think about how good you will fell if you resist.

Winkers,I was thinking about Jo earlier.She has usually posted by now.

 

[Disneyfreak92]

Still cathcing up, but needed to quote before shutting down computer. Will be back to finish later.

Hey once again I just wanted to say thanks, you really made my day.

Hubby left for Houston this morning and left without wishing me a happy birthday. Boys were clueless all day until I said something.

Went to a funeral home where all my family was and my one cousin said hi and happy birthday. I bowl with her, we see eachother all the time.

Everyone else has yet to even congratulate me on the pregnancy. Why would they remember my birthday. My own mom was there and didn't say squat. Which is very surprising. When my mom told my aunt, her sister, she said there's no way Monie would know she's pregnant. She has to go to the dr. first. HUH? And she has 5 grandchildren.

I left very upset. Not because it was my birthday, I'm upset that no one from that family has called to even congratulate us. When they have the opportunity nothing.

I was very let down today. Been crying on and off. I know my hormones are all crazy too.

Ok, I'm done.

You know we you Monica! Miss ya babe!

Hey Peeps ,

I mentioned that I'm probably heading to WDW in June for my mom's big b-day. Just the 2 of us. I'm thinking of potential restaurants for the big dinner on her actual birthday. Here are my options so far. The only one I have eaten at is Coral Reef:

California Grill
Coral Reef
Narcoose's
Citrico's
Le Cellier
Jiko's
Fulton's Crab House
Boma
Artist Point

I did post over in the restaurants forum but I never seem to get anyone to reply so I'm posting these here as well. I'd love to hear any opinions you have on these places, what your first choice would be - and last choice? Whatever you think I should know. Thanks guys!

Nighty-night!

I have eaten everywhere on that list besides Jiko and Artist Point, and we will be dining at Artist Point on our anniversary in May. They are all soooo good! But I have to say we went to Narcoosee's on our honeymoon, and it was marvelous! My least favorite was probably Citricos, but it wasn't bad. Cali Grill and Coral Reef have great views and great food. (Narcoosee's also has a nice view, and you can see fireworks from there, just different.) Le Cellier is YUMMY! Boma is great, but a bit more casual and loud. But they have Zebra Domes there! And Fulton's knows seafood. I'm probably not helping much.

 

[the Fidge]

OK all Fidgy update....ok firstly it was a bb gun thought I mentioned that and NO my son was NOT SHOT!!! Just soht at his feet on the ground I know I am not minizing the matter just explaining it.

MY Boss- wow he was great, he is ready to do whatever it takes and infromed school yes he was aware and No he had no problem with it had a problem with the sscools handling of the matter though, he reminded them that bus drivers can transport their own and being that my DS was not preventing another student from riding then no biggie for him and it is his vehilce and his insruance. He also wants me enourage me to keep pushing. WOW!!

OK spoke to special ed director she reccomended that since he is not in specail ed but does have a 5034 to have the guidance put that in his 504 plan. I called and willl be droppping off the letter from Dr office.

It seems the only party I know that has a problem is the transportation director, pretty funnny my boss said as I am an oddity due to the fact that I have no complaints jsut compliments on file. It seems I learned from him many other drivers have complaints not compliments.

The police were involved but now I must go another step forward as there were no witnesses to this action and the child denies it. You see it starts fromt eh head up of any organization (his parents).

I do have neighbors that have witnessed other acts by these 2 boys, by the way none of one of the boys of 5 have graduated been thrown out and police activty involved.

OK so I am still wating for the porcess to go its course sorry my typing is horrible more than usual! AHHHHHHH my hands are still trembling from me getting upset. I got little sleep and really wnated to eat myself into olbivion. SO I had 1 bowl of colon blow with a can of pinepapple juice at 3am figured it was my early breakfast I cna justify anything right???

SO I wanted to ask to keep praying for us we have not yet come to the other side of this, but I know fear and faith can't live int he same place. I am responsible for the effort and not the outcome, repeating all day!!!!

So I wnat to thank you al for all your support and prayers they are bring heard and it looks like a safe bet that I will not be suiing any angels today!!

Just thanking my peeps angels!!! I have ds home as he had to go to dr office to get the form and talk to his dr, who was only too happy to do whatever it takes to safeguard my child, bless his heart.

OK bully program HAAA!!! WE have none but we have had the grounds improved beautifician and we have a great new program for HUNTING!!! No hockey team or lacorsse but we have ARMED LITTLE BOYS ISN'T THAT GREAT??? WE do not get off from school for Martin Luther King, sillies we get off for the FIRST DAY OF HUNTING SEASON!!! NO JOKE, btw no hunters were harmed in my typing that statement!!!!!

 

[eeyore45]

What a hard class that was! It was only a half day!!

Dh made a date... he's late... I may have to fire that man, and get an affair with the next guy!!

MANTRA TIME _ "NOTHING tastes as good as THIN FEELS!! put down the donuts, hmmm have someone SNEEZE on them all, or better yet, have them lick them, yeah, that's it, take the tray and ask someone to lick the donuts, so it wont tempt you anymore!! That would SO work!! Keep getting a different person to lick a different donut!! I'm telling you this could help!! WWPD?? MANTRA

Here Here on Dis'ing instead of eating!! However, do NOT forget THE MOST important goal - get thee a HUGE glass of WATER to drink while dissing, yep, if its sitting there, and your peeping, you'd better be chugging down your water!!! GOT IT??? GET IT...

2nd thing to do while dissing - SUCK IT IN - yep, help those abs out, suck them in for exercise....

3rd thing - squeeze your buttocks muscles...

MANTRA - Drink, suck, Squeeze!!! We'll be thin in no time!!!

 

[the Fidge]

This is me today and my motto for today, just keep swimming.....

 

[eeyore45]

[the Fidge]
