DISappearing Peeps...A fastpass to THIN!

Welcome mumbler

 

[DisneyObsession]

It's been a crazy weekend! DH & I took our grandson to see Santa on Sat, as we were babysitting for DD & SIL. He was soooo cute! He grabbed Santa's beard right away and ended up with a handful of white "hair"! At 9mos we weren't sure if he would cry or not. He did very well!

Sat night was DH's company Christmas Party. I made very wise choices in my food and filled my plate with mostly salad & meat. I did add some stir-fry & pasta, but a small amount. (Of course I did have 2 glasses of wine thoughout the evening.) The highlight of the evening was when DH won a Compaq notebook laptop! We were very excited!!! Now I can take it to WDW to dowload pics from the camera every night! At least that is MY plan!!!

to all the new people! (I am bad with names, just like some others!) This is a great support group!

Need to work today, so I'll check back later!

Hi Ladies checkin in Keep on Slimmin...

 

[Mumbler]

I was thinking I should introduce myself a bit. I "know" many of you and your families from triip reports, but since I don't have the dedication for that you know nothing about me in return.

So, I am 34 (Wow, I really had to think about that for a minute!) I have been married to DH (36) for 13 years. We have 2 kids, DS (9) is in fourth grade and DD(6) is in first or as she says it, "firnst".

I work full time as a scientist - molecular biology, during the day and then of course the usual full time job of Mom the rest of the time.

DH is just now finishing his degree in Elem Ed. and also is a terrific full-time Dad. He does it all! He's also a huge inspiration to me - he lost 60 pounds 8 years ago and has kept it off. It truly is a lifestyle change.

We are members of our neighborhood YMCA which I really can't say enough good things about! It really is a place for the whole family - daycare is included in the cost of the membership so there are really no excuses not to go. (Unless you throw out your back and your chiropractor says NO!)

We live in the Tampa Bay area, just 1 1/2 hours from Disney, yeah for us! In fact, we're taking a quick overnight trip this Friday! I'll definitely need to bring my self control, I just have to remember where I put it!

Mumbler!

Okay I want to welcome you to the board!! You are in the right place!

However, I am really jealous of you also, you live to close to the MOUSE!

Mumbler,S.Poppins,and princessV!This group has helped me in numerous ways and I am sure it will help you too.

DisneyObsession,Congrats on the new laptop!That is so awesome...

V,tight fat pants is exactly why I am here too.I refuse to buy bigger clothes whe I have drawers full of clothes that I could be wearing.Just jump on the wagon and hang on tight.

spongemommie,you were talking about being cold and I just had to laugh.I got off of work at 1:30 and the temp is 75.

Bee,hope your first day back on the diet is not too difficult.

Today has been hard with my eating.The parents at work(I work in a daycare part time) have started bringing in the most heavenly homemade baked goods.I cannot pass them all up so I have decided to eat some small amounts at the normal time that I would eat,so that I am not mindlessly munching all day.I am also going to add some time to my exercise for awhile.
B-1 egg and two pieces toast(170 cal)
S-WW pumpin/spice cake(120 cal)
L-fajita chicken roll up and peas(300 cal)
S-small piece of pound cake(??cal)

Everyone keep on slimmin'....and hang on tight to the wagon!!

Hello Everyone- I was reading through the posts and am noticing a trend-CHILDCARE and WEIGHT GAIN! . Maybe some of us need new jobs-ha ha. You would think we would be too busy too eat but no-that is not the case. We just need to eat better-maybe more like this and not this

Here's my plan this week
1. 80 oz water a day-then I'll be too full for junk food
2. Remember to take my vitamins every night
3. Plan my meals and snacks so I don't fall off the wagon
4. Eat light on Thursday and Friday as Saturday is Disney on Ice and that means popcorn, cotton candy and a fasty food meal at some point in the day. Hey-it's Disney-it's worth it!

 

[S.Poppins]

Thanks guys! I already feel like I am at home. Some of you already know me since I spend a lot of time on the trip boards. But for those of you that don't know me... I am married with 2 kids, DD11, DS7. I am 35. I direct the early childhood center at my church, where I am also the youth and jr. high ministries director. I am in grad school right now working on my Masters in Early Childhood. My life is a little on the busy side, but I love what I do. I am looking forward to getting to know all of you!

I'm just having one of those blah blah days. I feel blah, the weather is blah, my mood is major blah. And there's two weeks to go before that happens.....

We didn't go to the mall. Maybe I have cabin fever. After being at WDW, coming home to a week of stuck in the house. I did happen to leave 3 times to the grocery store. Whoop De Doo. It was no hoop de dee let me tell you, I'm just blah.

I can't even crack myself up. So I give up. Maybe later. Diet's fine. I'm just blah.

Princess V. and mumble and S. Poppins, sorry I'm being a bummer, not like me.

jeriberz: Your name seems new to me, so let me say hello.

Did I say I feel blah?

 

[Mumbler]

Mony, sorry you're feeling so blah, maybe you could try painting your nails or toes. Or doing your hair up in way you don't normally wear it? Or if you live close to a mall maybe you could go out just to walk around tonight, you can count it as some exercise too!

I drank all of my water already today so maybe I'll go for a little extra.

Keep slimming ladies - Have a terrific night!

 

[spongemommie05]

Well the maid just got done cleaning my house(the maid being Myself) Hahha
monymony3471: i am sorry you have the blah's here is something for you for your blah's here is also some for your cold yuckky day.. :and here's a to wish for something fun. i hope your day gets better

 

[UtahMama]

Sponge- ok, If she's done at your house, can I borrow her? I have a mountain of socks to mate and put away. Plus deep cleaning the boys (ew!) toliet and bathroom! Perhaps my new reward system will persuade them into cleaning it!

I accomplished a major clean up today too. I did my "Junk drawer"...found some batteries and stapler I've been missing!


I ate a garlic bread stick and I'm pretty sure it's all your fault! (J/K!)

BROCCOLI for dinner!!!!!!

 

[Disneyland_Mama]

Hi y'all
I've just been lurking around since I haven't been sticking to my weight loss plan. I've been too embarrassed to post! I've been oinkin' out left and right. Even my fingers are getting fatter!
OMG! I went to Harry & Davids yesterday to buy DD teachers gifts and I bought a HUGE bag of Dark Chocolate covered Bing Cherries. Can you say oinky oinky!

This has been sooooo difficult for me with the holidays here and all these yummy little morsels of goodness. You all are doing so well, and well, I suck!

Ok, I just wanted to let that out and let you all know... I am not going to eat anymore chocolate cherries and I am going to get my big ol' butt outta this chair. I need tough love!!! I have to remember WWPD!!

I put down Carpet Fresh today, and when I tried to vacuum it up, I could barely push the vacuum. Two days in bed with the flu has made me a WEAK SISTER! My goal this week-some form of cardio 3x for 30 minutes, and arms work for 10 minutes 2x. Otherwise I'm gonna be able to flap my batwings and fly myself to DL in a couple of weeks. I'm also going to write down free food, and drink my water.

OMG I laughed so hard about this!!! thought I'd share a story...This past Oct we were in Daytona for Biketoberfest and I was being a cool biker chickie, riding my harley in my really cute tank top (as it was nearly100 degrees) and something caught my eye in my mirror....horrors after a second glance I realized OMG!!! it was my arm flab waving in the wind!!!! Thank goodness we were clipping along at a good speed and the only person who could see it was my DH as he always rides behind me!!!

My accountability for the day...ummmm homemade cookies, need I say more, BUT I did dance with my DS's (Feliz Navidad) while making them and they are Oatmeal Raisen so that makes them some what ok right? seriously I'm gonna be pretty good about them, maybe have 1 or 2 or 8

Welcome to Mumbler, Princess V and S Poppins - your gonna fit right in!!!

 

[harleygirl]

Disneyland Mama don't worry about oinkin' start from this point forward and take baby steps!!! We can do this!

dismom I am proud that you are eating veggies and thought I heard your DH laugh clear over here - musta been him laughin about you wanting broccoli! But I can attest that you eat more veggies now than you ever did!!! YAY you!!!

Its How many days to weigh in??? OMG I better get busy!!!

UM how bad is the detox during Phase I of SB?

 

[UtahMama]

DisneyLand Mama! We'll NEVER judge! We love you for being honest! You came back at a good time. We're kinda re-motivating and getting movin! We all have down spells! It was just your turn.

Eat carrots instead of goodies...HAHAHAHA!!!!!!! SO just kidding! I love advice like that! Seriously, maybe have just a taste of the treat then pile salt on it before you can have a second bite! That works, I swear! That way you wont feel deprived. See? We Love you and we're here for ya! Welcome Back!
