[belle8306]

And this weekend, we are going to see Gwen Stefani in Indy, so it is crazy around here!
.

How fun! Is she going to be at the Verizon? I will be flying out of Indy on Sunday.

Happy bday Cherie, welcome back Lynda!

Sorry for all the losses.

OKW is not my fav resort either. Not bad, but too spread out and, well, in some need of refurbishing. Looking forward to the trip report!

I have done well today w/ food, and even resisted beer when DH had one!

B: Reduced fat Bacon/Egg/Cheese Toaster Scramble (160)
L: Banquet sliced beef meal (230), salad (100), activa yogurt (70)
D: half Sicilian California pizza Kitchen frozen pizza (465), salad (100)
Total for the day, 1125, might have a small snack later. Exercise, 35 min on elliptical, 30 reps each of weights (chest, pull-down, row, leg press, leg curl, leg extension, ab-press, ab-crunch, ab-oblique, bicep, tricep, shoulder). Drank 64 oz water, much diet soda, and took my vitamin.

Happy Birthday Winkers!

Wednesday-a.m.-Magic Kingdom p.m. Epcot
Thursday-a.m.-MGM p.m-Magic Kingdom (and we will probably go back to Downtown Disney at some point also.)
Friday-Home

I am open to suggestions for counter service restaurants.

You are checking out when I'm checking in! And you're staying at POR as well right? I know I already asked you this, but what time are you leaving again? We hoping to get there around 12:30/1:00.

Some CS places I like are Casey's, Columbia Harbour House even though I wasn't as thrilled as usual on my last visit, Cosmic Rays, Mexico, Tusker House and Earl of Sandwich.

And for your doctor visit!

Uh, no. I kinda wish! I can't wait to start. I still have to load some pictures on the computer, upload them to my website, do lots of laundry, and start writing. We did get the pins mostly added to our pin books. And I should be able to make progress with the pictures tonight, so I am hoping to post soon! We had agility class with Jasper tonight too. And this weekend, we are going to see Gwen Stefani in Indy, so it is crazy around here!

Lynda! I'm bummed we never got to meet up! Hope you had a great time though. It'll be fun to see what we were both doing on the same days in our TRs.

That's so fun you're going to see Gwen Stefani. My DSIL, her DS and a friend went a couple weeks ago to see her and had 3rd row seats but nobody was in front of them so they were up close and personal! The friend was VERY pregnant and at the end of the show, Gwen pointed to the friend then to her own belly and smiled...too cute. She actually went into labor the next morning - 3 weeks early! But everyone was fine.

Thanks to everyone for your advice on my dad. I'm feeling very in the dark about things and I know I can call him but even when I am talking to him, I feel like he is holding back about how he's really doing. I ended up sort of talking to my mom about it (at Sweet Tomatoes of all places. What is it with that place and me having "serious" talks?) and she says I have no reason to feel guilty about anything. And she was going to say something else (what she really thought) but I told her not too because I knew I'd probably end up crying. So that's that. I'll keep you updated though if I learn anything else. It took me 5 months to get on the mass email list (and just wanted to point out that my mom is not the kind of person that would talk bad about him, not even behind my back. She always would tell me that he is trying his best, etc. etc.)

As for the diet. I'm sort of not following one. I'm trying not to go too crazy and nuts but I'm just not with it right now to be watching every mouthful I eat so I won't be posting on Fridays. Once I come back from Disney in 2 weeks, I'll try my darndest to get right back on that wagon and get right back with it. No excuses. But I'll definitely be around posting because I've grown quite fond of my peeps.

Hope everyone is having a great night!

You better post as much as possible..we can't bear to lose another Peep!!! Don't feel like you have to post weight gains/losses if you don't want too but don't leave us please!!!!

Well Peeps, it finally happened...I have finally lost the "W" from the size tag on my clothes!

I went to Kohls tonight for some new shorts because, as usual, they are having a sale. The lowest prices of the season don't you know Anyways, I got a few pairs of 16W's to try on and they were too big I did a little happy dance in the dressing room! The regular 16's fit and were a touch loose, but the 14's were too tight so I got some 16's. I cant tell you the last time I even attempted to squeeze my booty into a 14! Now, when I hit that milestone, I will do a major happy dance and tape it for you all to see

Just wanted to share with you all. I knew you would appreciate it way more than my DH did. He is just so clueless, but he tries to care.

Did well on food today-
B-granola bar
L-boca burger and oven fries
S-some veggie flavor wheat thins of some variety
D-frozen fake "McRibs" and green beans
Dessert-2 bite sized granola bar bites w/m&m's- got them at Target and they are individually wrapped so I dont eat the whole thing at once...not that I would do that or anything

WHOOOOOO HOOOOOOOOTYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!

that's so awesome! and as far as your DH goes, sometimes you have to pry the compliments from them. i asked DH awhile back if he could tell that i've lost weight and he said, "yeah, you're hot." and then he said something that i won't repeat here cause he's a perv!

Great job Jen!! What a great feeling it must have been to fit into those shorts!!
I have fallen off the wagon a bit since Friday. Not pig-out bad but just not eating what I should be at dinner. I am going to start taping a Denise Austin aerobics show every AM and do that before work. Just to boost me along.

How fun! Is she going to be at the Verizon? I will be flying out of Indy on Sunday.

She is, I believe. That's the place in Noblesville, right?

francesca - i will be sending prayers your way.....

I am anxiously awaiting that tour as well!!! No Doubt is my absolute favorite band! I do still like her solo stuff though. I just can't wait to see more of No Doubt. I only got to see them once before she started her solo stuff, and I love it, but I miss No Doubt.

Lynda! I'm bummed we never got to meet up! Hope you had a great time though. It'll be fun to see what we were both doing on the same days in our TRs.

But everyone was fine.

Me too - totally bummed! We will HAVE to correct that in the future! It will be fun reading our corresponding days on our TRs. Monica and I enjoyed that with our first TRs!

I am really looking forward to it! A friend is coming with DH and I, and we are hoping to meet up with my BFF for lunch the day of the show. That is too cute about your DSIL!

Oh trust me I am definitely not going anywhere! Just not really following WW so I won't be posting weight changes. Once my trip is over I am really going to get more focused but I'm just all over the place right now with stuff, emotionally and truly being busy with school so dieting just is taking a backseat. But not my peeps! I'm not leaving! I think if I hit goal tomorrow I still would stick around! I love you guys!

 

[HockeyKat]

Dance, congrats on the loss of the "W"!!! Great news! I will do that happy dance with you when the 14s fit. Hopefully mine will too sometime soon and we can do the happy dance together! I understand about DH being clueless... mine is both clueless and somewhat jealous of any weight-related thing. Hopefully he will be better now that he is dieting too.

Shannon, don't worry about the wagon. WDW trip did that to me too, and with the bookends of before and after it lasted about 2 weeks. Thankfully I only gained 3 lbs, hoping for the best for you too! And we will be here for you when you are ready.

Skinny dreams everyone!

Thank you everyone for all the great birthday wishes! My sister had her baby! A little girl named Kaylee Ray. I'm having to fight the urge to hop into my mom mobile and drive down there right now! But I have to weight almost 2 weeks for the kids to get out of school. Anyway, this was definatley the best birthday present ever, it took her 9 months to make it! Dh& Hunter bbq'd chicken for me and I was good and had only 1 small piece of the ande's chocolate mint cream pie and it was yummy. Also my aunt gave me a braclet that belonged to my Grandma who passed away in feb. and a necklace of my great grandma's. That made me cry. Now I have jewelry from all my grandma's and 2 great grandma's to pass on to my daughter. I'm just feelin the love today and so thankfull for my family who has put up with me for 33 years. And I'm also gratefull to all of my peeps who listen to me whine, complain, and moan without telling me to shut up or get a life! Seriously, I appreciate all of your support, you're like a bunch of imaginary friends who actually "talk" back to me! Kinda like the voices in my head..

Whoo Hooty! I've been known to do a little dance in the dressing room when I can fit into a smaller size! That's such an awesome accomplishment! You are going to look smokin at your sisters wedding! (I haven't used the word "smokin" in years!)

Glad you had such a wonderful birthday!

Geeez, did we offend a massive group? We're dwindling. I hope I didn't tick anyone off. Maybe the missing peeps found a better thread? Naw, that isn't possible . I know it's hard to keep track of everyone and it's hard to comment after each post. I do read it all (or most of it) but don't always comment. I'm being nuts, I know but there's been times when I've been PM'd by someone who feels left out. I'm soooo sorry, I don't do it on purpose .

Y'all are my second family so tell me if I'm just being sensitive and a dork. OK?

Just checking in after being MIA for a while and having been SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO far behind! I usually like to be caught up when I post. I wasn't feeling left out, Uma - it was more a matter of being off the wagon and not being happy with myself. I finally got my ample behind to my WW meeting today after missing last week. I was down a pound from last weigh in, but still up 4 pounds overall from my break from dieting. So not TOO horrible. And I don't have to give back my bling!

I must say that I missed all you Peeps! Reading regularly definitely helps keep me on track. Hello and welcome to the newbies!

Belated Happy Birthday to Shannon! So sorry to hear you're going through a rough time with your dad.

And Happy Birthday also to Winkers! Congrats on your new niece. My DH has a niece who was born on his birthday and he is always good about wishing her a Happy Birthday.

Fran and Sandy - Prayers sent for those families.

Welcome back, HKat and Lynda (and I know I'm forgetting a couple other Peeps - apologies sent)! I'm looking forward to reading some trip reports!!! Enjoyed the AKL and VWL pics.

Happy Birthday Cherie​

I'm Just scooting in before bed, had to bookmark a few pages back, so I'll try to catch up tomorrow, but I could'n't leave Winkers without a happy birthday from me. So I stole Jo's. Sorry Jo. Anyways, Happy b-day Winkers.


I was very down yesterday, and had a little pity party where I thought, "Who wants to eat right and be healthy, just to have a longer life full of PITAs?" I went out to dinner w/DS at a vegetarian restaurant, and ate very unhealthily (I won't say what so I don't set anyone off). Then I came home and ate something else unhealthy. I hate when I do that. I didn't even really enjoy the food because I was eating out of sadness, anger and frustration. I'm trying to learn from this. I did go to the gym yesterday, and I ate pretty well today (under 1600 calories). Oh well, I can't change the past, but maybe I can avoid making the same mistake in the future.

GOOD MORNING, EVERYONE!!!

Second to last day of school! I have taken off work today due to too many end of the school year activities.

I am typing with the phone to my ear...passport information center. DD leaves for her trip in one week and no passport yet! In case you haven't heard...they've got lots of backup over there!!! I'm trying to make sure the passport is being mailed out today like they said!

CHERIE....Congratulations on your new niece/birthday twin!

SHANNON....Sorry about your dilemma with your dad. Just speak from your heart when you talk to him and it will be the right thing.

JEN....WOO-HOOTY on the new size! You rock!

MOO & DANIELLE....Get on back up on the wagon. We've been missing you!

BELLE....Good luck at the doctor today, sweet girl!

PRAYER REQUEST...Our girl Fidge has been very sick and in the hospital. She's home now but send some prayers her way for continued improvement and healing.

Fidge...I was waiting for your permission to tell everybody and although I didn't get it, I hope you don't mind.

HAVE A GREAT DAY, EVERYONE!!!
