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

[denecarter]

I also did about 15 minutes on the exercise ball. I wasn't feeling too well. (Stupid AF!)

I knew girls that hang IRL often all got "visited" at the same time... seems it works that way here too...

Thank you for sleeping on Jay's sofa... of course I'm thinking that may become a habit!! LOL (ok, j.k!!)

And a MUCH better habit than those nasty cigs!

Dene - you are a trip, I see chocolate in your future, if not with Jay then with some other hunky dude,

 

[eeyore45]

Dene good observation, I had a health teacher that said Aunt Flo and the cycles of the moon were what "pulled" it out of us!! Now AF doesnt visit (thanks to an obgyn) but PMS does11

Ok, slackers! Double Time on your sit ups!!! Just kidding...Make it 102!


YAY!!!! I see Kelly (Alice) is fitting right in!!!! Wooo Hooo!

Or add some weights to that crunch!! One that i find horribly hard is to lay flat on your back... lift your knees and your toes are pointed (how to describe knees up - legs parallel?? does that make sense?) So you want your knees and crunch up, then realease but dont let your feet drop, just have your elbows come up to your knees, then relax... I can only do about 25 of those...

Then I take (still on your back!) and lift my feet straight up (now perpindicular) One L shape - that's easy, now come up slowly hands on the side and up lift and relax, only dont lay all the way down, just short crunches... and fast - you can easily do 100 of these.... THEN when your abs are strong, lower one leg about 1 foot off the ground, and the other leg straight UP now hands still at the side (again off the floor but move forward and back fast...) I can do maybe ten this way!!

Well I did 75 sit ups and I feel like someone set my tummy on fire!
I had to wait 15 min til I did the rest
Maybe I need to add the denise austin tummy stuff to my routine

does anyone take spinning?
I was thinking of doing this.

HI KELLLLY!! You and Disneyfreak Lynda are keeping us on track today I see!! No spining for me... (I'm sure my brain doesnt count in that question does it??)

Lunch time is almost up... gotta run..................................

I haven't done my sit ups. They are going to HURT.

I do feel skinny today even if the scale says otherwise.

The VATech shootings story is making me SICK!!!
We just had a gunman here in Salt Lake a couple months ago.

Good news, though! A mini-miracle of all FOUR kids napping at the same time!

HIGH FIVE!

I tried it once and almost died. I think I did it to soon after my knee and hand surgery even though I waited until I was relesaed from the Dr. after therapy. This was 3 years ago and it hurt so much that I have not gone back. My friends swear by it.

Thank you everyone for your prayers for Joshua. I think that we are at then end and are beginning to see some light. He has been on meds since Sunday night and he is much, much improved. Now we are working on getting him to sleep again by himself. He cried only for 1.4 hours at bedtime last night and then woke again around 3:00. I let him cry it out after I checked the video monitor to make sure all was well.


More news--DD plays rec. soccer and we had city tournament this weekend--well was supposed to be but because of rain we played one game Friday night and won. We played last night and won as well. Tonight we play for 1st place. Then this weekend we start District Games--we will play 2 soccer games on Saturday and 1 on Sunday. Hopefully they will do well and we can go to state. Last nights game was very close 0-0 until the last 5 minutes of the game. DD plays defender --she gt the ball and made a run up the line and went past mid field. She passed the ball off and the two that got it scored. I was so pround of her--she did not realize that she made the goal possible. We went on to score one more goal to win 2-0.

I go see the Dr. today and should be able to the heartbeat I hope that everyone has a great day.

Stacey please call me--I need some information from you.

I need help! Tomorrow is weigh in at WW, and I am retaining water like crazy. My ankles look kind of elephantish. Does anyone know of a way to get rid of the extra water by tomorrow?

Hi Mariann,

SWOLLEN ANKLES?? YIKES!

I'm not a doctor, nor do I play one on TV...so take this advice as you would from any other person you meet on the internet

I DO know that caffeine is a natural diuretic - If it won't mess with your sleep, I'd start with a strong cup of coffee or two...alcohol also works...

Keep us posted!

I remember your mall shooting. It brought back bad memories for me DD was in our local mall at the movies, when we had a shooter a couple of years ago. SHe was fine, and I knew she was ok because she called me on her cell phone (in tears) from outside of the mall. Luckily she was with a friend and her friend's Dad. But I was a nervous wreck until she was actually home and I was hugging her. A good friend of hers has a cousin at Va. Tech and his parents hadn't heard from him as of this morning. Don't know the status right now, but prayers would be appreciated!


4 kids napping at the same time? What did you slip in their drinks?

I don't know if this is true, but a friend of mine who was on WW a few years ago always ate asparagus the day before weigh in. She swore by that method for reducing the water retention.

WARM tap water (almost hot) and FRESH Lemon juice - a full lemon in an 8oz glass of warm water, do this twice or 3 times, and you will need to stay near a potty!!
(aspargus also works, alcohol... hmm lets ask Dene Beer maybe for me, but other than that, I hold my liquor!!

I often say "i'm not a doctor, but I've seen one on TV" Those commercials worked well until Dr. Rick Weberfrom GH, got caught doing illegal drugs in real life!

I think Eeyore had a trick for this. Put two tablespoons of lemon juice (preferably from an actual lemon, but the bottle stuff works too ) in an 8 oz. cup of warm water. She says it works quickly, so stay home.

did I get that right Sandy?

I am here to confirm, that yes, alcohol such as light beer WILL indeed cause you to dehydrate and subsequently lose water weight... (being a science teacher, you wouldn't think I would have just figured that out this weekend... )
