DISappearing Peeps...A fastpass to THIN!

[Ellester]

Which reminds me, the prayer in Ricky Bobby Talladega Nights is the funniest thing ever! "I am contractually obligated to thank you, baby Jesus, for Powerade in every prayer". His wife "raises the roof" during the prayer with a "WOO!".

And his kids are named Walker and Texas Ranger (TR for short)!

I think we are going to rent that tonight. We lived in Charlotte when they were filming and it was a Will Ferrel sighting frenzy! Charlotte is NASCAR central. I don't even care about it, but I can tell you who Junior is and just about all the major racers numbers. I absorbed it by osmosis!

That info about Luecine was very interesting. My tryglicerides are high and the study Melinda posted a link to said that luecine can lower them. Hmmmm. Something to contemplate after the holidays......


IWantmyDVC - That is so frustrating! All that hard work and sabotaged by your meds! It's not fair! But, you are still down and that is GREAT! I lost about 30 on WW but gained about 20 back over the past 10 months or so. I just got lazy about tracking and exercizing and WHOOMP there it was! I'm going to get back on points after Christmas and just try to not go too crazy over the next week. Welcome aboard! We're a pretty friendly bunch!

Congrats to all the losers, YOU ARE ON A ROLL! It is quite impressive to me that you all have lost so close to Christmas! Keep it up! (or down, as the case may be!)

Poohbear77 We have done starfall, but not in a while. (P is for Pumpkin, papapapa, Pumpkin! ) I've looked at "100 Easy Lessons" and we may try that. I just got the LA-K program from Sonlight (which is what we use for most of our curriculum) and we're going to start that after the new year. Since she is a young five, I'm not too worried about it. But, my dd8 was in public school for K and 1st so I haven't actually taught anyone to read yet. I find it a bit daunting, espcially since phonics never made sense to me. I learned to sight read on my own. CONGRATS on the impressive loss!

Another Merry Christmas to everyone! My DH is only working a half day today, so I will probably try to spend time with him rather than DIS all day! Not that I don't love you all, but I kinda like DH too!

I went out for dinner with 7 other moms last night and did not get home till after midnight !!!! Way too much coffee...I didn't fall asleep till after 3.

Keep smiling and drinking that water !

Over the holiday weekend we will be upgrading the boards to the latest version of the VBulletin software. This upgrade will involve major downtime for the boards. I will be bringing them down around 5pm on Friday and it will take 24 to 48 hours to upgrade them.
The new VBulletin has a host of exciting new features, this should really make the boards a better place for all of us.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY HARLEY!!!

ENJOY IT TO THE FULLEST!!!

 

[DisneyObsession]

OK...why is it I am the only one who has succumbed to the "food of the season" and GAINED weight?!?

NOT FAIR!!!

I really need to behave myself over this weekend...or at least get exercise!

(Does working at a VERY BUSY deli for 20 hrs in the next 2 days count?!?)

Hope everyone has a Merry Christmas & a Very Blessed New Year!!

 

[pixie dust 112]

Happy Birthday Harley!!!

 

[jaycns]

My scale is broken...MY SCALE IS BROKEN...oh the tragedy...or maybe the greatness of it...depending on if I gained or lost. My scale currently says I weigh 128 pounds...that is so NOT possible that it is not even funny...well, if you mix up the numbers you might get it right...but so NOT my weight.

Hmm...all is not lost. I had ordered a fantastic body fat percentage, water consumption keeping scale two days ago. Hopefully it gets here ASAP...that way I will have a chance to get a real weight for next week's weigh in.


I don't have a chance to catch up right now (I will try to make it back later today) but I am in the middle of teaching the boys and just wanted to pop in with the "news" during our lunch break.

Today for lunch I am going to have a Ceasar Salad (minus the dressing...I just figured something out, I don't like salad dressing...so why am I wasting calories on it??!! So, I am now going to eat all of my salads naked) and I am going to eat an entire (no Barbie bites...it would only cause me to go hog wild later today if I deny myself this) Buckeye (chocolate covered powered sugar/peanut butter...oh the taboo heaven in those little balls). So...I won't just have a taste...but I am only going to allow myself one. Just one.

Also, I am already half way through my water for the day...and yep, me and a race horse have something in common!

WOO HOO for all those that lost. GOOD JOB for all those that stayed the same in the midst of the holiday. YOU CAN DO IT for all those that gained just a wee bit on holiday nibbles.

Hugs all around and I will catch up later!

OH AND HAPPY BIRTHDAY HARLEY!!

 

[summersk]

I honestly don't know how, but the scale is showing down 3 WOOHOO! I think that although I have binged a few times, I have made up for it with major healthy meals, water, and tons of exercise because I knew I was having a bad sweet time. TwinkieLOL, I'm on your diet plan, stress, it doesn't do the body good lol. VI hear what you are saying and I am feeling it too. At 9 pm tonight my girls go to Daddy's and I will not see them untill Christmas eve after 7pm If you need someone to talk to PM me, I'll give you my #. I personally plan to wrap, wrap wrap (which I have done none of so far). Clean my house which looks like Christmas already happened (how does life get so out of control ). And I have a couple of hours lined up with friends (but most of my friends will be celebrating w/their families). Oh, yeppers and I will exercise, it passes the time well, and I don't have tae-bo/taekwon do this weekend so I MUST do something besides eat . Happy Birthday Harley! I hope you have a extra special day DisneyObsession it will be OK, the holidays are the hardest to get through, work that Deli like you are doing high impact cardio we'll be here for you after! Utahmamathanks for posting the nutritional info, I'm off to read about it in a minute! Enjoy all of your kiddos. I have to rent Talladega Nights it's going to be next on my Netflix list, it looks so funny!
Congrats to all of the Disappearing Peeps. Have wonderful holidays, be thankful for your health, prayers and pixie dust for your families, travel safetly Oh, by the way I had to read through like 4 pages to get here, does that count as exercise lol nope, didn't think so, gotta run, will exercise tonight!

Congratulations to all you losers.

I am living proof how important exercise is. I haven't even touched the tread mill since Monday and I went up 2 pounds. I could have made better eating choices, but for some sillly reason that I just can't come up with I didn't.

AF is to arrive at any moment. Maybe that has something to do with it. Just a little bit. (spoken like the church lady from 16 Candles, but without the sloshing sound)

Saturday I return to exercise. Amen.

Merry Christmas. I really hope its a joyous time for everyone.

See you all in a few days.

Remember, I'm your life line!

 

[honeymo78]

Happy Birthday Harley!

I've been MIA for a few days. They've been tough. I've done some emotional eating but nothing too bad. No scale movement this week - hopefully next week I'll get my new ribbon. Well actually there was scale movement but it doesn't seem right. Wed night I was showing no gain or loss however this morning I'm about 7lbs heavier than that, I step on it again and I get a way too low number. I'm thinking its impossible to gain 7lbs in less than 48hrs (plus I didn't pig out yesterday, calories were pretty normal) so I'm sticking with the wed night no movement.

Everyone have a happy and healthy holiday!!!

 

[UtahMama]

I just love ya'll!!!

"Lying Beach" is my scale's name!

Ok, I got a can of Slim Fast Optimum - it claims it keeps you fuller longer. I ate it (drank fast through a straw) at 11:30 and I'm still satisfied. Except, can you guess what the first ingredient is? SUGAR! I mixed it with non fat lactose free milk and a little peanut butter (like a Reese's milkshake, in my imagination) but it still gave me that too much sugar feeling. So, I'll have to get the diabetic version. I just need a plateau breaker. No, I haven't lost my mind drinking my food. I dont mind at this point. Too many weeks with the Lying Beach staying the same

Ok, since I've been awake since 3:00, I need a nap desperately.

Here is this week's total so far. Hopefully that's all there is for today becasue the DIS'll be shutting down at 5:00 ish.

Jaycns- I think you just woke me back up laughing! I LOVE chocolate/peanut butter BALLS too and eating my Caesar's Salads in the NUDE! I hope I dont make the little baby Jesus cry from having my mind perpetually in the gutter! (Baby Jesus is from Talladega Nights! SOOOO FUNNY!)

 

[monymony3471]

I'm sorry, I get so caught up in ME ME ME when I write I forget about the important things:

Happy Birthday Harley!!!

 

[lexmelinda]

Love you guys!!! Have a safe and happy Christmas....one and all!!!

Ok, I think you do need a nap. I don't see a total in that sentence. Maybe you wrote it in special Utah invisible ink?

Congrats to all! We are doing great because we are all trying to do better.

Merry Christmas to all my skinny DIS friends!

 

[Tinkabella]

I just want to wish you all and your families a Magical & Wonderful Christmas!!!!


I think you are all fantastic special ladies.

 

[pixie dust 112]

Everyone have a fantastic holiday.... remember it's ok not to be perfect. I know I'll be cheating a bit, but I figure even if I don't do perfectly in Christmas Present, I'll do a lot better than in Christmas Past and will be looking hot in Christmas Future!

Merry Christmas Peeps!

 

[Bee]

Merry Christmas.... one and all!!!!!


Love all y'all

 

[Bee]

Hope everyone is enjoying the Holiday that they celebrate!!!


I love this board!! I talked to the one and only UtahMama today!!! Now that is a gift in itself... She is just as sweet on the phone as she is here on this board. (She sounded really skinny also)..

I look forward to doing so again... When the kids are in school .

Love, All y'all!!!!
