DISappearing Peeps...A fastpass to THIN!

[UtahMama]

I totally think 20 is doable, and will show in the way your clothes fit. Quite possibly make them not fit any more. 2 weeks ago I cleaned out my closet: all of my "fattest" clothes gone (2 big bags full to the Goodwill) they were all too big. And now I'm wearing my "skinnier" clothes. (I'm sure many of you know what it is I speak of) I still have one more size down to go in my closet, but there aren't near as many of those, so by then I'll need to some SERIOUS SHOPPING!!! I guess I didn't think I'd get small enough to wear them again.



hinsok1 here's a pic of me about 20 pounds ago next to a pic of me 45 pounds ago, see 20 pounds is a BIG difference!

Wow Jill what a cutie you are!

I swear, I need those size rings designed to attach to the racks of clothing in clothing stores! I'd have 9's through 16's...

Looks like there's gonna be ALOT of shopping going on with all of us on this thread! Not that I'm complaining! We have alot of really nice outlet stores here in Park City that wouldn't mind taking my money!

Ok, I felt guilty all day for not exercising this morning. So I did the tread mill again at 6pm. Now I can relax. 33 mins, 2.28 miles, 104 fat cals gone! 300 cals gone!

I thought it was a good day again.

B: scrambled eggs with peppers, onions, cheese

am sn: turkey, lettuce leaf, swiss cheese

L: beef patty with mushrooms, some cheese, side salad w/chick peas and cukes, Home Made italian dressing.

pm sn: yogurt

D: Salad with chicken, cukes, celery, chick peas, hm ranch dressing

I drink about 10 glasses of water and had a crystal light drink today.

(oh and I did find a mini kit kat in my coat pocket that I wore on Halloween, it mysteriously disappeared????

I feel good. I need to feel good about myself. This is such a mental thing for me. I very much appreciate this being started. What made this so easy to join, was that I see by the user names that we frequent the same threads and chit chat together and it gave me a sense of familiarity. Which made it very easy to hop on board. So, UM, a heart felt thanks for starting this and getting me where I need to be.

I would love those recipes!!!

Hey all! Hey Monymony (love ya already! )

Does anyone want to see their "goal range" for Ht. and age and BMI current and goal? Click here:

http://www.dietwatch.com/dietwatch/...GenLongListG&gclid=CMzgusHox4gCFSHCYAodz3N4AQThere's a spot that says "Free Diet Profile". I didnt "join" but I wanted the tool.

My range is 123-167!

My skeleton doesnt weigh 123!!!! So I think I'll opt for the higher end of my range!

 

[aries1980]

Calorie-count.com is an awesome site i fell upon if all you ladies would like to look you can log your food for calorie counts and you can plug in your weight and it will chart your progress its pretty neat.

ok i got 40 oz of water done so far had the split pea soup again today for lunch this time. I didnt get to walk the park so i did the mall for 45 mins of walking.
I ate there at the food court but I was very good with all th tempation I only choose from the ones that gave me a nutritional guide. So I got a low-fat pita chicken teryaki wrap for a grand total of 300 calories with a water and 80 calories of mandarin oranges.

I didnt even pick on the babys fries! ok just one but then I was like BAD!!! so I kept up the will power!!

I will finsih my water and snack before bed.

My darling! I am so happy you are here! OF course YOU can come play! We'll try not to talk about our girly-troubles! We weigh in on Friday. So I'm sure you'll still beat most of us, being a dude and all. So far it's a GREAT buncha gals! I'm going to collect all the weight loss numbers on friday evening-ish to announce our HUGE compiled loss. So far it's still NEW so we're all gung-ho. But as time wears on, and we hit plateaus, we'll need a bunch of support.

Here's all you've missed:

1. Pick your diet and stick to it. We have calorie counters, South Beachers, etc.
2. weigh in fridays, can take measurements and a BEFORE picture(recommended) Look as fat as possible in the picture! LOL! fat and sad!
3. water (after diet pepsi, addendum to our rule was mine )
4. No eating past 7 (or 2 hours before you go to bed)
5. check in often
6. Minnie Mouse is possibly our mascot because technically she's a protein and she rhymes with skinny
7. We'll do wt. loss ribbons (a link is somewhere around here)
8. try to excercise, find something, anything!
9. give support and cheers as needed
10.DONT give up- 6 months we'll re-evaluate...so set short term and 6 mo. goals. Looks like you've done that.

I cant wait to see you in your disco suit/bikini (wax before!)

I hope I dont eat the WAX!

I work weird hours & various shifts ...I will stick to the no eating 2 hour before sleep rule! Whenever that we be!

Dont worry about the girly "issues" (not problems) ....I will speed up in the mouse when I see them(is that considered excercise?)! I have a gym & The bldg I work in is 1 football field wide & 2 footballs fields long.....and I am always running around there!

My BIG food problem is CANDY & Potato Chips and CAKE!

 

[Minnie_Moo]

DISUNC! Nice to meet you. I've seen you around but never taken the opportunity to say hello.

Are you related to pixie dust 112? She has the same lovely shade of green hair as you!

Evening, Ladies - I'm checking in late. Had a long work day, then dinner out at PF Chang's with some colleagues. I was not on my best eating behavior today, but I did choose a Greek salad for lunch instead of a big old sandwich and chips and did better with the water today.

I'm not officially taking the whoe eating right plunge until Monday, though. I always have to get myself psyched up the week before.

 

[LBelle]

Hooray!!! We have a guy now!!!!! Welcome Disunc!!!!! It'll sure be nice to get a male perspective on all of this!!!!!

 

[lexmelinda]

Good morning, everyone! Welcome newbies and especially you....DISUNC....glad you're here! Yesterday's calorie count.....1410!

I'm with Dr. Oz on the no-brainer breakfasts and lunches. I will be sticking to my oatmeal/flax seed for breakfast and Lean Cuisine for lunch.

Snacks I take to work=fresh fruit or yogurt/fruit. I have frozen blueberries so I dump some in a container and a small container of yogurt on top...still cold when I get ready to eat it. Blueberries are super fruit by the way. Try to include some if you can.

Still flunking water and exercise but working on that. Frankly, I don't like water but bought some Lipton diet green teas packets to add to my bottled water. Taking my walking shoes to work....there is a gym attached to my office building. Now that I've actually admitted that....no more excuses.

HAVE A GREAT DAY, EVERYBODY!

 

[monymony3471]

It will be my morning ritual to stop by and say hello to everyone. And Welcome DISUNC!

Kinda puts me in the right state of mind for my day. Helps bunches to see that I'm not alone doing this. AHHH GROUP HUG. THANKS.

(Plus I'm stuck on the riddle this morning)

Keep on keeping on!

 

[eeyore45]

Monica, I thought you typed stuck in the middle with you... sing along...


Melinda may I make a tiny suggestion? Have a little itty bitty goal for the gym... I mean, tell yourself 15 min - that its, 3 times a week, 15 min. and really reach for that attainable goal - for the first week, then maybe each week after increase by 5 min...

You see, I know in my head that it makes a difference to start slowly to make the overall lifestyle change, but like many of you, I am anxious for results now - dagnabit - why cant I loose 5# EACH AND EVERY WEEK... oh, um *duh... and yet,

How many of us crave to see that number go down just like that? Esp when we see things like Celebrity Fit Club, and Biggest Loser, and they do put up big numbers...

and then I stop. and gain more.

So listen to your head, it will take time, dont rush it... we're going for a lifestyle change - right peeps?

Today is a new day The choice is yours to make - make good choices.

 

[eeyore45]

Forgot to say HELLO DISappearing PEEPS!!

and dont forget all day today... hear it in your head and then DO IT...

suck it in


(my exercise so far - typing!! picking the bouncers and dancers smilies!!)

 

[crazy4dizney]

Good morning !! Dis Peeps ...
Tis' only day three for me .. Have'nt exercised yet but , hope to today.. It's always that initial plunge Then I'm good to go ... Wait! Dont get the wrong idea!!!!! I'm going back to the gym today...Wish me luck

Have a good day

 

[UtahMama]

GOOD MORNING PEOPLE! (Ty impersonation to FREAK out DISunc)

Today is my free aerobics day! Free at the church! No excuses!
I have to do it! Two times this week is practically a HABIT! I'm still super sore from monday! But that wont become an excuse. I am a GOOD and convincing excuse maker! So even if the car is broken, the kids are sick, I break my leg, whatever, I still need to excercise! Oprah says !


OH! Along with the almost 2 times working out this week, I managed to choke down 64 oz. of water yesterday (I KNOW)! I still have my Weight Watchers MUG (why cant the disney refillable mugs be this big, I ask you???) which is 32 oz. I filled it twice! THAT is a major accomplishment! I think my body is is shock! The thing I have noticed with the water vs. diet Pepsi (sounds like a WWF pay per view)is my skin is wayyyy softer (weird huh?) and I FEEL better . So my goal for today is to fill (and DRINK) 3 mugs full of water today! I still REQUIRE that dietPuppies to wake up though! And if i get a headache, it's what I 'll drink! NO ONE could talk me out of that! It's my vice.


Ok! I gotta get the kids ready for school and Norah bundled up to go to aerobics! YAY ME!

I'll be checking in tons...I have my Minnie by the monitor and she just stares at me when I go willy-nilly and NOT check in!!!!

 

[Minnie]

Good morning Peeps

to anyone I might have missed so far

I made it through another night That is 2 in a row which is more than I've done in a long time.

Okay I admit to tooo many pistachios for a snack but it was still all Ph1 foods.

I made the bean mini-cakes last night and have them with me for snack. BTW - for those that considered them they are totally Ph1 friendly and don't count as part of your dessert calories as they are mostly protein.

I still have yet to exercise. I have a disk problem in my back which causes my sciatic nerve to hurt big time. Anyone knows exercise that won't cause that to act up please let me know

Today's menu:
B - turkey sausage quiche (diet mt dew)
S - yogurt
L - salad and ham/cheese rollups
S - yogurt, bean cake
D - hmmmm DF has an interview today so it'll depend on how it goes
D - sf ff fudge bar
E - will try to do something

 

[LBelle]

Good morning all!!!!!!

It's a beautiful, brand spanking new day!!!!!

Well.......it seems that I have officially pulled all the muscles down the entire left side of my body!!!!!! Yep...from the base of my noodle to the end of my butt!!!! NO CLUE!!!!!!

Anyhoo.....not gonna bellyache anymore than that!!! Won't be doing a whole lot with the working out stuff today but I've been stickin' to the water/5-6 healthy, small meals per day plan and I already feel like I have more pep in me!!!

This thread is going GREAT!!!! So many good folks!!! So much helpful advice and support!!!

 

[TwinkieMama]

Good Morning Peeps!!!!

(and welcome DISUNC and everyone else who is newish)

I had the most amazing 300 calorie breakie today!

2 slices whole grain wheat bread 200 cal
2 oz fat free cream cheese 60 cal
4 slices ultra thin smoked turkey 40 cal


It was wonderful and made me feel like I was out to eat a bistro and is very filling.


I am going to stick with 64 oz of water today... any more of a goal and I can't make it. Also I can't drink that much when I am teaching!

Well I have to work on my food journal... my good choices are scribbled on a notepad and need to get them into my fancysmancy excel spreadsheet.

As I do not have free aerobics and/or child care I must at home... probably another 30 minutes of dancing with my kids. This is also a strength training since the 25 lb wunderbaby makes me hold him for most of it AND the other result is that my kids are lambs behavior wise. People need exercise!

Morning Ladies and Gentleman!

OK i finished off 60 oz of water. Let me tell you I feel like im choking it down anyone know of somethinig I can add to it that will still keep it calorie free so I can drink it without wanting to ... i am so happy with this board i swear if it wasnt for the idea of know ing I need to check in here and that I have people there to cathc me if i fall off the wagon I wouldnt be on this diet as seriously. i feel like everything I put in my mouth... I think ok is this ok for me and the ladies on the board. Thank you ladies today is a great day so far. Im hoping to get to the park but the weather is getting crappy so I think walking in the mall is going to do. I'm thinking of joining curves because I did there one week trail and for a half hour a day that work was amazing because it was like doing an hour half workout for less time. Keep up the good work ladies and gentleman
