Hi All! Looks like we've had a hopping start to the new year. My work schedulle is a bit wonky this week o I'm posting late tonight.
Monica~ I understand the concern and reservation you have regarding your pg.
Congrats, everything will work out. I got an email tonight and one line in it was "God wouldn't lead you to something unless He intended to lead you through it." I have to remember this when dealing with our infertility. I occasionally think that He doesn't want me to have anymore children, but I know He wants good and wondrful thing for me so I have to have faith that He will bless me whn the time is right.
Twinkie~ I stayed up an hour and a half past my bedtime reading the first part of your fantastic trip report. DH was pretty upset with me when he found out this am. BTW, I always count
as extra exercise.
i_hrt_mickey~ Welcome aboard! Jump in where you feel comfortable, some days you'll feel like you can't keep up.
pixie~ I felt the same way about DS; my surprise baby, Now that he's almost 11 I can't imagine ever feeling ambivilent towards him and he's such a great young man. He has his moments but he's smart and funny and definately loves his momma. He was worried about me tonight because I got home late and didn't have dinner but he knew I had to eat so he waited until I got my food guide opened before he asked what he could bring me to eat. He warmed up my food and brought it to me.
harley~ YAY on the ride, it sounds like you really enjoyed yourself.
on the self-esteem busting experiences. I had one today. I went to the mall after work trying to find some shorts or capris for our trip since I've gotten too big for the ones I have. Well, there were no shorts..... go figure it's Jan in Indiana no one here's thinking about shorts when they're 
So there I was, scouring the post holiday clearance racks for something that would be suitable for 75ish degree days. Well, the only thing I found that fit looked terrible on me. There was no way I way buying it. I was so upset and demoralized. To top it all off, they had one of those really well lit 3 panel mirrors and I realized I am fat. Not just a bit overweight, not plump but real honest to goodness fat. I have a roll on each side of my abdomen, there is a huge paunch that makes me look several mos pg and my hips look like those huge overized muffins that spill over the top and sides of the baking pan. I was so upset that I left the mall and vowed not to allow DH to take a single picture of me while we're gone.
aldisneygrl~ My kids feel the ame way about the wayward pups we get. I love to end them back to their families when we're able to find them but too often in my neighborhood no one claims the dog and we've found some have deliberately been abandoned. I've lived in my house just over 3 yrs now and have adopted 4
since we've moved in. 2 of them decided they wanted to live here, most likely because we take good care of our other dogs and they're all well fed and happy. (Yes, I wrote dogs.... the fuzzkids outnumber us.... and we love them dearly.)
UM~ I hope the bail for the wuppies wasn't too much and they weren't horribly stinky. Nothing like foul smelling dog in your car.....
Ok, I was good today. I wnt to breakfast with DH and ordered a fruit bowl, had some of his grits, with out butter and a cup of coffee. We were really busy at work so I didn't have the chance to be tempted to eat. I had 2 bottles of water, a banana and a WW meal. I went to the store after work and picked up a few snack things (Slim Fast and WW snack bars) and the WW bread I wanted. I also got lettuce, a tomato and fat free salad dressing so I can have really yummy sandwiches. Since I knew I was going to be tempted by lots of yummies at the mall, I had a WW carrot cake before I got there and didn't look twice at the boxes of Godiva that I had to pass. I had another liter of water with my dinner, a small plate of chicken, veggies nd rice. I'm not getting on the TM tonight, it's too late; but I did spend a few hours walking around the mall so I know I got some exercise in.
One day down, it wasn't so hard. I can do this!

Monica...does that give you a due date as August-ish? My Norah was Aug. 26th the birthstone is peridot (lime!!!!) which is VERY appropriate for our DISbaby, I'd say! AND she'll be a VIRGO! I LOVE Virgos! Sorry, I turn all immature and sappy in times like these...and she'll have her sister's pretty smile and she'll look stunning in pink and she can call me Aunt UtahMama...
I'm TOO excited to sleep!!!! I'll be tossing and turning all night with a doofy smile:
As far as food goes today I had a piece of very wheatie bread (the kind with like 20 grains including nuts and twigs!) and an egg
For lunch and snacks, I made those VERY fibery 1 point muffins I posted clear wayyyyy back on page
and the recipe calls for 3 Cups of All Bran and a Fat Free brownie mix....Hoping to achieve the broccoli effect 
Plus they are soooo chocolatey and filling. Dont know how many I ate. Just grabbed one everytime I was hungry. So a bunch 
For Dinner- it's Taco Tuesday at Del Taco (3 for 99cents!!!) so I had ...3!!!!!
But they'll be erased with my 1 point muffins, right????
Easily did my water and vitamin....NO excercise...I SOOOOO struggle with that!!!!!
MAYbe that's WHY I continue to NOT lose????????????????

The owner of little boy Bam Bam said that he gets loose often. Wouldn't it be funny if he ended up on my DH's work doorstep again tomorrow....NOT! If he could talk, I'm sure he would have a lot to say.
I ran away from home, and then these people took me in. Made me a leash out of a computer cable, then this nice man took me to his house. He had this great dog friend to play with, and some great kids to give me lots of attention. Also, the lady sponged me off so I didn't have muddy spots on me. Then they took me in the car, and took me back to my mom. Wow what a day! Do you think I got a little attached?
I only knew this pup for an hour, but he made a big impact on our family. My son made a picture of him with his cell phone, and my daughter took about three or four pictures with her camera. Now you need to know something about my daughter. She rescued a turtle this summer. Shadow found it in the back yard, and was barking at it. She brought it inside, and put it in an aquarium, fed it vegetables. It wasn't happy in the aquarium.
So she decided to let it go, but took pictures of him before we let him go. Then she took a picture of me setting it free in the woods. She is my Crocodile Hunter in the making. Sorry, got off topic again.
mousehouselover - I love those WW cakes. I have the carrot cake ones but haven't tried them yet. I've had the lemon ones, and they are yummy!! Isn't it amazing how those little cakes can curb your temptation for other, not so good for you, foods.

aries - I'm going to get me another Propel. As I hear the sound of that whip crack as I get up out of my chair.
I haven't been able to exercise today with all my wuppy excitement, but tomorrow is another day! (So says Scarlett

Hey, since everyone was posting pics of their kids, I thought I would post some of mine! Well, they are all the kids I have right now anyway.
Today, I had a half great/half uh-oh kinda food day. But I am not going hard core until next week following all the b-day celebrations.
B - weight control oatmeal and yogurt smoothie
L - leftover steak (about 8 oz.), small baked potato, & sauteed mushrooms
D - leftover shake & bake pork chop, sweet potato chips, salad, and sugar free pudding
Then, DH brought me Mickey D's french fries
because I have been craving them, and I wanted to get it out of the way now, so I don't eat everything else in sight because I'm not having the fries. Oh well. Tomorrow is a new day!

Lynda,
What cuties they are? If I could figure out how to use photobucket, I would post DD's picture of Bam Bam from this afternoon.
At WW they say it is better to go ahead and have the Mickey D's. If you don't you will continue to think about it and then before you know it you have fallen off the wagon and into the ditch all while eating everything in site!
I'll be right there with you tomorrow!

Hey, Harley and everyone else, you should join my gym! I was on the elliptical today, and some guy kept talking to me, asking me to join him for the TM guided workout. DH told me later to quit flirting, but I wasn't sure if this fella talked to me because he thought I was cute, or he saw the rear view and thought I needed a better workout.
I wanted to share this picture from the Tiki Room at Disneyland (which is still the original; not destryed by Iago). This is my body image EXACTLY. I always feel like this bathroom door was designed for me. I hope you enjoy this picture. It took me a gazillion hours to edit it (no really, I did) and upload it to photobucket.

Good Morning Peeps,
Monica.... CONGRATS !!!!!!! I am so excited for you.
Our first DISappearing peeps baby
....How wonderful !!!! I must admit that I have a twinge of "baby envy", Little yummy toes and teeny tiny eyelashes...so delicious. I love baby smell...the yummy kind not the diaper kind. That sweet, soft perfect baby smell...Oh Monica it is such a gift. Don't worry about hubby, in a couple of days he will be singing from the rooftops. I think it will be a girl 
...someone for Malorie to play with...she will complete your family.
Disney freak (Lynda), Those pictures are tooooo cute !!!!
Hrt Disney... Wecome...this is a great group of ladies, you will laugh really hard...which is kinda like exercise ...right ????
My kids are home until next Monday...I love it...we are still in slow motion vacation mode. DD6 just got up (8:45), usually she starts school at 8:10
! Next week it is back to reality.
I am soooo back on the wagon with your ladies...after a really bad week
I am committed to get on track !
Just a note...I think all 5 pounds have come off my chest !!!! Seriously !!! I was not huge to begin with but I need to go buy some new bras !!! If this continues I will look like a thirteen year old boy by March.
Keep drinking that water !
Love ya all !

I lose weight in my chest first too. Which makes my hips and bum look even MORE wide, MORE pearshaped. I AM that image on the TIKI room bathroom door! But...I have seen pics of myself THIN (I'll post them, you'll be amazed) and I dont have the hips anymore. I was only thin long enough to regain a little then stable off THEN got pregnant with Norah and gained 40 or so. That baby fat is over 2 years old!!!!!! 
I look GOOOOOD thin, I think anyway!
Daycare Peeps- This daycare buddy came like 30 minutes before he normally does...when the WHOLE house was sound asleep and I was in the bathroom! Dont you HATE when the parent's think you are open 24/7 and they dont need to call you???? So, I took my SWEET time getting to the door (DH had got out of bed to let them in, dang it!) Never pissy with the kids, ONLY inconsiderate parents!!!!!! Or when it's payday and they "forgot" their wallet. Or when they dont even show and dont call???? I'm weeding out the inconsiderate mamas THAT's for sure! I have a waiting list a mile long so I know I'll always have a great job! It's still better for me (and our family) to not have to pay child care for THREE children for me to do hair...I'd be barely making enough to pay day care! As long as I stick to a schedule and plan fun activities, the day goes by fast and I feel fulfilled at the end of the day. All but one leave before 5PM...so my hours are great. I am licensed and also get totally reimbursed with the "Food Program" which is a sweet check every month.
I havent been up long enough to eat badly... just in the process of caffeinating my body to WAKE up. What for breakfast? I need a menu plan the night before so I dont open and close the fridge to figure out what I should eat

Luv the furbabies.... and I think y'all better stop talking about 'em ok?? "why?" you ask... because I'm WANTING ONE!! I even went on Petfinders.org!! 
We CANT have one. even if we NEED one... 
I know... but its for the best. (allergies here... but dd was UP AGAIN all night, and dh is going around *sighing... walking into walls... he says he missed a work deadline, and he looks terrible! I started to think maybe having a puppy sleep on dd bed like the dogs do in the movies and tv shows will keep her in her room - I mean, they dont cry, they dont have accidents and they dont hardly cost anymoney right?!!!
ok, wow someone gets to send their kiddies back to school today!! Not here, one more week, well, its Wed, so less than a week!! Well with the boys and college, more than a week!! HELP ME I'm losing my mind!! too late, its gone!! (CRS has settled in = Cant Remember Stuff (or an expletive if you so desire!)
What a difference water makes!!! and UM, watch those fiber products. I have found that taking fiber has the opposite effect on this body... I'll stick to the real thing, anybody need some fiber pills???
Good Morning Monica - gotta ditto UM, luv how she puts things!! August - keep us informed!!

Daycare parents can be soo rude. I get way irritated with the parents that think they don't need to pay! I called the police yesterday because one of my moms wrote me a check in August that bounced and she has been promising to pay since then. Anyway-no money yet. So I called and the cop that came by said that if she has a criminal history (which she does) she could end up in jail for fraud. All for $100 that she could have just paid instead of stringing me along. Love the "food" check too!

UM: Malorie's birthday is August 27th! You and lexy get moving with the exercise. I did!!!!!!!!
If I figure my due date right it's August 29th!
You subtract three months and add 7 days from you last cycle right?
Well, the last two days I've been fighting that I'm hungry feeling but I can't eat mostly the whole day. Then at night I'm finally able to eat a regular meal.
I woke up hungry this am.
I first did 33 minutes on the tread mill. I'm just walking at a good pace. I got 2 miles in.
Went out last night and got my folic acid. Took my vitamins this morning. I was able to eat a banana, cheerios, skim milk. Now I have to drink milk. Yuck! So I do it with cereal. I got on the scale and it was down. So, maybe I be down a little before I start to gain. Last time I didn't gain until 16 weeks. My Dr. never had a problem with me losing some weight. He never had a problem telling me what he thought about my weight. But I love my dr. I would never go to anyone else and I don't care that now it takes me 45 minutes to get there. Plus the hospital where he delivers is an hour away. He knows me, my history, and has surgically delivered all my kids. I wouldn't trust anyone else.
At 8:30 I was starving so I had a half of chicken sandwich with lite mayo. I only had 1 cup of coffee. Gave me heart burn.
Maybe tomorrow I'll take another test and a different one just to check.
Everyone lots of hugs and thanks for making the adjustment easier.
Tinkabella: Glad you back on with us! Just throw that bad week down the toilet! It a new year and a new you is not far away!
lexmelinda: There's always time somewhere in the day to take care of you! Good luck with the new job.
Disneyfreak92: Baby steps, you are on your way.
aldisneygrl: If my dog got out I'd want someone like you to find it and care for it.
mousehouselover: I believe God has a plan, it's just hard to understand His plan and the timing. My best friend ever, Steph, mom died last night/early this am. So, it's time to replace a loved one I guess. That's how I interpret things.
I wanted to repond more, but I'll come back in a bit.
Have a great day!

morning peeps!
just stopping by for some inspiration and you haven't failed me
Danielle (dwheatlbealtebaby)-
ok I am singing along (but just in my head) and now in addition to WWPD I will remember "Do you want to look like the Tiki girl?"
UtahMama- You are making me laugh too! thanks! I am way too lazy to make the fibermuffins of wonder.... however if they work like broccoli then I might add them to my mile long to-do list.
mousehouselover- Thanks for the kind words. I love to read trip reports and I enjoyed writing mine!
Hi everyone! Remember the marines and their penchant for prior planning... also (exercise) is the key for me... I can fudge (hahah...maybe not literally) on the food IF I am hard core about keeping my metabolism up via exercise!

CONGRATULATIONS MONICA I know that you are feeling a bit surprised now, but the shock will wear off, and I know that you will feel so blessed! 
Danielle:
Thanks for the laugh, I joined the 24 hour gym and went looking and feeling like the tiki room girl last night!
UM: I definately need to get with and stick with the P's PPPPPPP! Sorry about the early arrival, on the good side you'll be moving in a stressed hurried way earlier than normal, so that counts towards the calorie burn side right?
Saddly ladies, I also lose weight in my chest first, and this is after I had a reduction
Why didn't it work that way before surgery
Lexmelinda: I am sure the puffiness will go away soon just keep sloshing the H20!
To all the new Peeps! Keep on moving Skinny Minnies (she's a protein still laughing over that one)
to all the peeps I've missed. Being gone for a few days you really get behind!

This will teach me to miss a day of this thread - so much happens.
Congrats Monica - here's to a healthy and happy pregnancy!
I've got 2 months until our next disney trip and I've got to get these lbs off. With this no loss over the holidays I've had to revise my plans a bit so right now my goal is to lose these last 7lbs and get back under 200 for the trip. Most of my summer clothes should fit if I get back there (unfortunately the size 14 shorts won't but at least I'll wear the 16s not the 18s). And I need to get highlights which I promised I wouldn't get until I was back in the 100s so that's a double reason to get there before the trip. I don't want just blah brown hair for vacation pics.
