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

[abish19]

So, I haven't posted in a while because my weight hasn't been changing! I decided that I could bump up my efforts in the eating category, but the big change will come because I'm doing more strength training. (Thanks LMO for validating that!).

AND - I'm SO motivated since earlier today my DH said we could go to WDW for not just 6 but 7 DAYS!

I'm just so happy for everybody! Lots of good vibes on this thread, and the positive energy is BURSTING through my computer screen! And for those of you who aren't doing so great (and maybe not posting because of it), we're all thinking of you and ready to help, even if from a distance!

I'm off to pump some serious iron (umm, 5 pounds?)!

Hi all! I know I've been MIA, but things have once again been SO crazy around here. I have finished editing and uploading photos from the last wedding I did, and I have another one in two weeks! It is a smaller one though. And we just got back from Cedar Point. It was just DH, SIL, and me, and we had such a blast! SIL and I did every roller coaster with the exception of two, and one of those was the kiddie one we aren't allowed to do. We don't often get to do things with her, and she is such a great girl. This trip is her b-day present from us every year, and she is 21 this year. Just love her to death! Here's a pic of her and I from this weekend.

I am a samer from two weeks ago still. I'm really hoping to make some progress before we leave for WDW in about 3 weeks. I hope everyone has been doing great. I miss you all and hope I'll be around more between now and our WDW trip.

Wendy, you crack me up! "They" don't shrink a lot when I lose weight. Some - yes, but not a lot. Thank you. I thought that was just an OK picture, but thank you.

That park is amazing! 16 coasters (of which we did 14)! The one behind us is Raptor - one of our favorites. It is SO FUN! There's a video of it here.

Of course!!!! Welcome!!!! Weigh day is Fridays. You can just post how much you lose (or gain or "same") thusly: -3.5 or whatever. Do whatever plan works for you but I want to suggest taking your measurements now to see progress that isn't showing on the scale. I WISH I would have done that inches ago! Lots of fabulous info and experience here in the PEEP sisterhood (with one sweet brother).

4:30??? You are my hero. I tend to wait till late afternoon/early evening to get away from kids/stress! "Mama Time"...except they often go with me to play in the kids' gym.

OOOOhhhh, Raptor looks skeery! I'd LOVE it!

Disneyismyname:

Welcome! This is an awesome thread! Lots of great advise!
Weekends aren't to bad for me, but now with school starting soon I fear I may fall off track. The kids have so much going on after school that I tend to eat the wrong things because I get sooooo..... hungry running them here or there! Then those fast food no no's are screaming at me to stop and eat I think I need to pack some healthy snacks in the car so I don't get hungry.

Any way welcome again! Good luck with your weight lose!

Oh you're doing a cruise Ihave trouble with the weekends too because everyone is home all day (of course in the summer the kids are home during the week but for some reason when DH is home too ). Once the kids go back to school (which is thursday ) I'll start doing better during the week too. And I am going to start an exercise tape once my DD2 is in preschool (tues and thurs).

 

[DisneyObsession]

DisneyismyName...WELCOME!!! We have a great time here and listen really well when you need to vent!!! I did the land/sea last Nov and had a blast! Are you going with your Mom??? I think you posted on my TR!

Wendy's advice to take measurements is a good one. I did that when I joined WW and after 5 wks am down over 7in from my body! The weight loss is slow, but the inches are showing!

 

[Sparkie]

Sneaking back in .......

I've got lots of news.

DD went for her ultrasound today and she is having a girl. Suprisingly her boyfriend did show up for the appointment. Dont remember if I told you all but he stood us up for her birthday dinner. We waited for an hour and a half with no boyfriend and no phone call.

DS - driving me NUTS!!!

And I have a NEW JOB!!!

Well, same job.... different hours. I currently work 11 pm to 7 am for 8 days in a row and get 6 days off. My new work schedule will be 7pm to 7am on Sat and Sun only with 1 extra 8 hour day during the week. So I am giving up every weekend but the trade off is a BIG pay increase and I get to live semi normal during the week. I am allowed 4 weekend shifts off per year and can take time off during the week without that counting against my weekend time off allowance. I retain my full time status and my full time benefits. Another plus, I do better with my appetite control when I am off and maybe I will feel like exercising. My main reason for considering this new position is for my daughter. So that I can help her with the baby and she can finish school and keeping my fingers crossed that she will start college in the fall. Then the more I thought about it, I found some positives for me as well.



Last bit of good news..... Disney trip for October is still on.... Disney is my mental health "therapy"

Just wanted to share.

Welcome aboard!

Yeah, weekends are definitely my weak spot too. I usually allow myself one day (typically Friday because it is the farthest away from weigh-in) to sort of let my guard down a little bit and eat how I'd like. But I have to be extra careful, as in keeping track every single thing that goes in my mouth, and not letting up at all the rest of the weekend. It would be so easy for me to just have a little bite here or a small handful there; and before you know it I've eaten 1/2 dozen WW Points that I didn't mark down. So I don't know if I have any advice, but I do know where you are coming from.

LOL! We're thread parents, WIDF! LOL!

So I guess that makes all of the Peeps our illegitimate cyber-children?

 

[disneyismyname]

THANKS EVERYONE!!!!

I'm really excited!! Yes i'm going on a land/sea trip with my mom and we are thrilled to be going!


Utahmama: Dont call me a hero...I woke up at 5:20 this morning and didnt do a workout! I fell asleep at 6pm and still couldnt wake up early!lol.


DisneyObession: I did post on your TR!! Loved it!


Thanks again everyone for letting me be apart of this!!! Now I have to go back to work.
I will give you more details on life, etc. afterwards...when I have more time!!!

Yes, its weekends for me as well! It really annoys me that I can have all the self control in the world at work, when everyone else is eating good stuff around me, but as soon as the weekend comes I want to eat the world!

Speaking of which just weighed myself for the first time since our few days away at the weekend . . . oh dear!!!!!!!!!!!! I may be missing from weigh-in Friday!!

NO free pass for you, missy!

LOL! We've ALL been there

I swear, the scale (aka: "Lying Beeotch" in my house) can go up 5 pounds in one day from 1 M&M. (slight exaggeration)
