DISappearing Peeps...Vol. 3! All are Welcome!

[LMO429]

Last night at around 9 oclock my stomach was growling!!! I wanted to eat so bad but I did my best to try to go to sleep early so I would not snack! My wedding is in 79 days! and I dont want to be a chunky bride!

My first dress fitting at kleinfelds is July 31st Im so nervous about it..I ordered my dress so long ago I forgot what it looks like..plus the sample was in ivory and I ordered my dress in white so I am hoping i will still love it.

any of you peeps on facebook?

We finally have a showing on the house tonight at 5:45. Please send prayers and pixie dust! We are also going to look at about 5 houses today. I am off and DH took off to celebrate our anniversary and my bday. (which is today). We are going to Olive Garden for lunch before house hunting and I think I will stick with the salad, soup & breadstick lunch.

Prayers and good luck wishes are sent your way! I hope you get a bid!!

Lunch sounds like a wise choice!!

i think i'm the only person on the face of the earth that prefers the newer "chocolate factory" movie. (the reason i call it that is because it's actually called "charlie and the chocolate factory." the '70's version is "willy wonka and the chocolate factory.") i LOVE both movies, but i just adore the newer one. johnny depp is fabulous in it. i think i love that character almost as much as i love captain jack sparrow. he's just a brilliant actor. i can't even compare the '05 version and the '70's version though - they're completely different to me.

MUMBLER!!!!!!!!!

and I think I'm the only one who doesn't like either movie! I've never read the book so don't know if I'd like that one. Two of my favorite actors playing Willie Wonka and I don't like either movie. I remember when the first one came out all my friends loved it and I hated it! I can't stand that oompa loompa song!

Hi all

Disneyobsession on the house and HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!

LMO Im on Facebook, love it! Are you on there? I felt the same way about my dress, I'd ordered it so long before that I completely forgot what it looked like I picked it up a couple of weeks ago and I do still love it though so thats good!

Punkin I prefer the original film to the old one!

Pixie Although I love the film, I HATE the Oompa Loompas - they have always freaked me out!

Hope everyones having a great day

My mom called this morning and said she was lonely, and did I want to come over and go out to lunch. Since I am REALLY trying to limit my intake this week, I told her I would bring lunch. I brought over the artichoke, spinach and chicken lean pockets (very good, they remind me of the Earl of Sandwich), picked fresh blackberries from my backyard, and covered them with a vanilla nonfat sugar-free yogurt. We both enjoyed the lunch, and it was 360 calories total. Not bad for something that really felt like a treat.

Wow! A good peep and a good daughter all rolled into one! You are a rock star Danielle

disneyobsession - good luck with the house!!!

AND HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!!!!!!!!

I can't stand that oompa loompa song!

that's the only thing i like better about the old one! i don't like the oompa loompas in the new one or the songs they sing. i think it's because they're not fat and the name "oompa loompa" just sounds like they're supposed to be little fat men with white hair and orange skin.

Pixie Although I love the film, I HATE the Oompa Loompas - they have always freaked me out!

my best friends DS was an oompa loompa a couple of years ago for halloween! he was only 16 months old and it was perfect because he had crazy hair and she made it look like an oompa loompa! probably would've scared you to death.

Oh my, even the mental image of that is freaking me out!

Hi Peeps I'm back....again.
I didn't fall off the wagon exactly, more like clinging to it and trying not to fall off. I'm now back at an office where I have internet access, however I don't have gym access here. However, I do have to walk about 5 city blocks each way to the train station. But that and the short puppy walks are all the exercise I'm getting for now.

I didn't meet my mid June goal of 200lbs, but I'm only 3-4lbs away from that. I really think the key is to get back here (for as long as I have work internet) for the emotional support I need, and make sure I don't get takeout at work - lean cuisine is my friend, and 1 real serving or 2 small servings of dinner at home is all I need. I also think I need to drink 1 more 32oz bottle of water each day.

If I get back on track I really think I can lose another 10-15lbs before we leave for disney in just over 3 months (Momma, I think we'll be there at the same time) and hopefully not have to buy new clothes for the trip since the older stuff should fit again.

Welcome back! Good to see you again! You are so close to being under 200! I think water is a key!

October is the most beautiful time in the northeast! My absolute favorite time of year! You will have a perfect time for your wedding!

Happy Birthday to you and Greg. My DH and I are close too. I am 9 days older than him! Yup, I robbed the cradle !

Have a great time in BOston. I love that City! My DD is looking at a few colleges in Boston. I'd be happy with that!

Congrats on .4 down. Every little bit is a good thing.

I just went to weight watchers and am up 1.2 pounds. I'm disappointed but I guess it's not too bad considering I was on vacation. I'm going to be really good today and hope that I end up a samer on this board, cause we all know how crazy things change at weigh in from day to day. Good luck tomorrow everyone!

Good for you on resisting the late night snacking urge!! That's a tough one for a lot of people.
I hope your dress fitting goes well and that you still love your dress. I'm sure you will, and that your going to be a lovely bride.

I'm on Facebook, but rarely go over there. I have a MySpace page and it just seems like I'm over there more for some reason.

my best friends DS was an oompa loompa a couple of years ago for halloween! he was only 16 months old and it was perfect because he had crazy hair and she made it look like an oompa loompa! probably would've scared you to death.

OMG, that had me cracking up just picturing that!!

Hi, are you heading to WDW? We are off to Disneyland. Gonna go see the West Coast Mouse.
Good luck on meeting your goal! Disney is a great motivator for me because everytime I am tempted to eat something I just remind myself if I hold out now, I can have something really yummy on vacation. Well, it doesn't ALWAYS work, LOL, but it helps.
And how great would it be to be able to wear your old things again!!!

A little down is definitely better then any up!

Have fun going out and Happy Birthday to you both!

That's not bad at all for being on vacation! And I bet you lose it in no time. Good luck to you too!!

Momma - I'll be at the World, but we'll all be having a great time with the mouse. I still haven't made it out to Cali yet - someday.

MUMBLER!!!!!!!!!

Actually, I'm with you on that. It might be because I've seen the original so many times, and I'm just sick of it. But given the choice between the two, I'd choose the Johnny Depp version myself. Which annoys my wife to no end. There is something about the new one that is so darn entertaining. I love how sarcastic he is towards the kids. And I enjoy the backstories of why he likes chocolate so much, where the Oompa Loompa's came from, why nobody is allowed in the factory, etc. It is just a great movie!

I love how sarcastic he is towards the kids.

me too! it just cracks me up that he's so indifferent about them, that he doesn't fuss over them. it's great. (not that i don't like kids but sometimes i can relate to willy wonka!)

i found this.......some of the best moments of the movie:

although it does leave out the part where he keeps running into the glass elevator and i love that part!

I bought the Apple Streusel Fiber One bars today (they had them at Walmart), and MMMmmmm. I had never had a fiber one bar before (not a big fan of peanut butter), so I can't compare them to the others, but I really liked it. And at 130 cals an 9 g of fiber, it is a good deal.


Does anyone have any advice about loose wedding rings? I don't really want to have to get them resized...

Well, I think I've found my new workout video!

that is DD's favorite part of the movie. She was laughing so hard she couldn't breathe.

Here's a little doohickey you can buy to make it fit better. http://www.amerimark.com/cgi-bin/am...vanced&OVADID=13555798021&OVKWID=139530830521
If your rings are plainish in the band area, it's not a big deal to get them resized. But if you have stones on the sides or whatever, then it's a bigger hassle.

VENT COMING
I had the exterminator out yesterday because we have roaches (eww) in the side yard. Whenever I walk outside now, I find more of them lying on their backs, dying. It is NASTY, yet satisfying because I know I got my money's worth. When the guy was here, my neighbor came out and YELLED at him that she owned the fence (no, we each paid for half) and that he couldn't spray it because she has showdogs. I had already asked about pets being safe, and I would have talked to her if she wasn't such a "mother dog" herself, if you know what I mean. I get a free re-spray within 90 days, and if I see roaches on the fence between now and then, I'm going to tell her she better move her dogs for the spraying, because I'm sick of skittering critters every time I go out at night. And just so you know, I don't live on a trash heap. We are in the midst of a drought, and the roaches are looking for anything (garbage cans, pet bowls, etc) that has some moisture. Bleh!

Happy Birthday to you and Greg. My DH and I are close too. I am 9 days older than him! Yup, I robbed the cradle !

Have a great time in BOston. I love that City! My DD is looking at a few colleges in Boston. I'd be happy with that!

He turned 28 today and I will be 31 on Saturday..what can I say, just call me Demi Moore..lol! I WISH!! OK maybe not with all the plastic in her now, but she's a pretty in shape lady!

All this Willy Wonka talk makes me need to watch the newer one again...and now i am craving snosenberries...HA!
