[monymony3471]

Lynda!



You've made a great choice. There's lots of support and I swear I've never "met" a better group of women here. Hopefully the guy will come back.

You can post your goals, your journaling, your ups and downs. What ever you feel comfortable doing.

You got a dog to take for walks. What great motivation to get your exercise in!

Welcome to our family!

PS. Friday is our weigh in days. So weigh yourself before you go to bed!

I have to join this thread. After monymony pointed out that the thread is way too long to read before joining, I decided to go ahead and say, "I am here!"

First of all, with New Year's a couple days away and my birthday just 3 days after that, I do not plan to lose any weight until after that. I am hoping I don't gain anything though. I have been drinking much more water for the past week than I had been for a long time. I want to start a journal after the b-day, I think. I believe I will start with a goal of 30 lbs, but I need to lose more than that. When I lived away from home on my own, I lost a lot of weight, and 5 months before my wedding in 2002, my dress came in and didn't fit - as in 4 inch gap in the zipper! 5 months later, it fit...without alterations! Six months after I got married, I got a sit-down job. Bad news! We bought a house farther from the gym. Bad news! I got a bike, but then we got a puppy, and she has been time consuming. Bad news! The good news is that puppy is getting older and better behaved now, and I need to make a change, and I am going to do it! With all of your help, I hope. But mostly because I have decided that it must be done, and I can do it! I will need support, so I think this thread is a great idea! Here goes nothin'!

YAY!!!!! I am SOOO excited to have you join our group! The more the merrier!
DisneyFreak Lynda I have seen ya around the hood, so I feel like I "know" ya! Welcome Cutie-Pants!!!!

I had a similar thing happen with my wedding gown! I bought mine off the rack and it fit like a dream. Then I proceeded to gain a little over the course of just a couple months...On my wedding day (duhhhh!) I put it on about an hour before the ceremony with a BIG gap!!!! My mom and sister and friends all ZIPPED me up as I took a deep breath! I'm surprised my seems didn't BURST open! I had NOOO room for the pretty dainty under things so I went commando (TMI) under my wedding dress!!!! EEEK! Oh well. The sisters were NOT going anywhere with my painted on gown! OOOps...I just remembered my DH is such a lurkerpants on this thread!

Hi Goof! Did you just LOVE what I said about my exDH???? Uh...I was just kidding! I'm losing the weight to look hot for YOU! Yeah, that's the ticket!


Did anyone add up the massive amount of weight we collectively lost??? Or do we want to add it to next weeks tally? I will personally bow before the weight loss QUEENS who lost this past week...You are a more disciplined woman than I- FER SHUR!


I just ate this yummy chicken salad wrap from Arby's. It had grapes and peacans (maybe walnuts?) and nice chunks of chiken in a tortilla...did NOT even touch those curly fries my babes ate!!! I AM SUCH A WARRIOR!!!

Utahmama: No you just ROCK!

I was trying to comment to your before but the board gods wouldn't allow it....

You posted about losing weight to get back at an EX! BORG! (I had to use it just once) That sooooo would be me. Just to let them know what they are missing out on. Tee Hee. Snort Snort.

And talking about lurkers......my DH reads everything under my user name. I keep telling him to get his own sign on. It messes up all my last views. Ahem.

Am I right?

Thank you! Thank you! But I can't weigh in tonight. I forgot to mention that I need to buy a scale. I don't own one! So, my first weigh in will be next week. Until then, I am drinking water and watching my portion sizes. Thanks for making me feel welcome Monica and UM!

Did you mean, "Fresh Meat?"

I got a new washer and dryer a few months ago and I LOVE to do the wash (dont love to fold and put it all away though!!!) now. Yay for your new toys!

Am I right?

We are SO BORG!
I totally say "snort, snort"!!!

My DH "follows me around" the DIS either because:
a. he's paranoid I'm having a cyber affair with some DIS dude, or,
b. he thinks I'm funny on the DIS and wonders why I'm not funny IRL (I AM!)
c. he wants to keep me on my toes

It DOES screw up my subscriptions page! I draw the line at him reading MY PM's though! THAT would put me in a SNIT!

 

[summersk]

UM, I love your story. I totally got a good laugh out of it, thank you so much for sharing, the "no take backs" is a gut buster too! I don't feel like you are butting in, I came to my fellow peeps for replies and support, an uplifting if you will, and I know that I came to the right place. Being unable to lean on a family member/friend at that point in time (I think I kept crying and would have never gotten the story out lol) I haven't been back to the boards since my last post untill now (11:36 ET), but your wonderful, caring replies have sure carried me through the day. You guys are the first peeps I talked to, I was so down that I spent the whole am not answering any phones at my house. Of course, I got a real talking to from my dear old Mom about that one I was a bad DD. Now you guys don't tell her I got censored okie dokie she's a real southern belle and she might take it the wrong way. My attorney is actually on a leave of absense right now so I spoke with other legal counsel. Word is that thanks to a case in the early 90's where a husband sued when his child was put in daycare for the mother to go to college while his parents wanted to watch the child. The initial ruling was for the father, but this ruling was overturned and set a precedent that has never been challenged. Thanks so much to all of you for offering up your kind words on this wonderful weigh in day. To all the newbies! Happy Friday to all, and to all a skinny night!

Hi all! Care if I join in??

 

[summersk]

Good Morning Peepers!

Keep up the good work we are ringing in the new year very very soon!


LindsayDunn228

Shake that body today babies!

 

[monymony3471]

Hey Lindsay to our merry group. Soon to be a little group due to weight loss!

Wanna play?

Come play the riddle today!

http://www.disboards.com/showthread.php?t=1308926

Almost awake enought to work out!

Challenge: Today is a mandatory day to get some extra activity in. Whether it's a work out video, a walk, house work, or running around and playing with your kids. I want some form of sweat today. Post your activity by 9pm. Don't forget to measure your sweat. J/K

 

[UtahMama]

Lindsay- You snuck right in and I almost missed you (I am SO good about missing people, so I appologize in advance for when I aknowledge everyone but you on accident!) Of course you can join us! Tell us a little about yourself!


Monica-ok...I'll go riddle since I used to go there first (now it's here I come first) and do it everyday. My brain needs a jolt today after a not long enough sleep. I hope it's a good one! AND, I accept your challenge on activity I've got my Sat. Daycare toddler today so it should be easy to run around.

Summer- I hope this all goes smoothly for you. What a rollercoaster it'll be, but hopefully it'll be in your and your kids best interest in the end. If you lived in this state, you'd have NO problem...the mamas usually get custody and the daddys usually pay through the nose...even if that isn't the best in every case. We are SO here for ya! (the group hug smilie is a little depressing, so the dancing, hovering-head, twirling smilie is much better sometimes!)

 

[monymony3471]

Oh I forgot!

Lindsay, love love love!!!! the siggy picture.

 

[TwinkieMama]

Good morning!

Welcome S'late, Princess Lynda and Lyndsie! Glad you are here... you will love the thread!

Utah- I loved your story too!

Spongie- My little guy has those same carters puppy jammies! Got them for Christmas.... too cute!


I still have company (but now it is my in-laws) but my goal is to get some form of exercise in today.

 

[UtahMama]

I love the SB diet but it's time to stir things up and keep them fresh so I'm doing the Weight Watchers CORE program (which is almost the same as SB) the rest of the week. No I wont diet hop too much, but I need newness, I guess. NOW I'm all excited to start!!!! So, I'm starting with a hearty serving of oatmeal and later for snack I'll have a big naval orange. I havent planned lunch yet but I assure you it will be very healthy and comforting. My focus is EVERY bite* has to impact me towards the positive and make healthy. So if we go to Costco today, I'll SHIRK those evil Taster Ladies! I'll SHUN the candy canes still all over the place... I will be a Weight Loss Warrior!!!


*except diet Pepsi, which I'll limit


(I footnoted!)

 

[eeyore45]

UtahMama You do, you DO look skinnier!! (and I cant imagine my dh or anyone following my Dis movements!! lol it would bore them to tears!!!)

S'late, Princess Lynda and Lindsay! Indeed! Dont mind me I tend to disappear when I get lonely.... Lyndsie, I remember you, I think we've PM'd each other a few times, during some heated threads - I think I was supporting you!! You are an inspiration!!!

I am not dieting. I am not drinking water, taking multivitamins. I am having a huge battle with my mind. I am not winning.

I am trying to "move more" So when I fix a meal, I try and do "squats" and 'pelvic rolls' (its a pilate type move, squat down, rotate your pelvis in and out, really difficult to explain, but it is an effective move!) Breath. and I have my pedometer - I only logged in 5,000 steps with a regular day - I wanted to see what a normal day was...

 

[aldisneygrl]

UM - I have always been a believer of the DIS Diet! What is that you might ask? Well, tags make you look thinner! I have been thinner (in my mind ) since I got my tag. Well, since you have like a million, you are instantly thinner.

S'Late, Lynda and Lindsay - Welcome to our group! This is a great bunch of gals, and I think there is a guy here too ! These ladies will you on when you do good or pick you up when you have fallen down . Hope you enjoy being here!

Summer - I'm thinking about your difficult situation. Just know your in my thoughts and prayers.

 

[monymony3471]

My activity for the day:

40 minutes on the treadmill. I walked a minute and then ran a minutes for 34 straight minutes! I Rock!

Everyone send UM good thoughts as she dodges those snack ladies at Costco!

 

[aries1980]

Morning Ladies!!! Have a skinny minnie day!

 

[LindsayDunn228]

Lyndsie- my name hasn't been spelled that way before!!
