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

[dance2874]

Hope everyone had a great thanksgiving!

I did not weigh today. Since I officially joined WW again figured I would wait til my weigh in there on tues and then use that number for Friday. I dont want to mess with my scale at home if I can help it. I make myself crazy hoping on and off the scale all week long so I am trying to reserve that honor for my weekly meeting. We'll see how long that lasts, lol.

Hi all

I can't weigh in . . . our boiler is still broken so we still have no heat in the house(its not being replaced until Wednesday), I have to weigh myself naked, and its just far too cold without heating to be naked!!!!! So there is the longest, worst excuse ever!!!!!!!!!!!!

To everyone who has gained - at least you have an excuse with Thankgiving, and at least you're not making pathetic excuses not to weigh in, like I am!!!!

I was very good until last night though when I committed peepacide with a lot of pork products, and tonight I committed second degree peepacide with a lot of chocolate products. I have sort of accepted this is it until after Christmas with all of the meals out coming up, but I really do want to be thinner for Christmas in Vegas!! I'm in a quandry . . . but I feel the food may win! DH and I have made a pledge that even if we snack a bit too much, we will at least stick with our healthy meals on days when we're at home - that has to help a tiny bit!!!

Now tell me - in the UK we have turkey for our Christmas dinner, but in the States you have that for Thanksgiving - so what do you have for Christmas dinner?! I am very excited about what I may be given in Vegas!!

Ouch! no heat until Wednesday!

We will probably have a turkey or roast beef for Christmas.

This is day 5 without heat, just hope we don't get snow again this weekend!! I am quite the sexy beast in my three pairs of pj's and thick socks . . . lucky DH!!!!!!!

I am trying so hard to be brave, we almost lost our dogs when the boiler died (they were in the room with the fumes and only just got home in time), so it could have been soooo much worse and I am very thankful it wasn't, so I am trying not to complain. . . but I just HATE the cold!

Ohh roast beef - yum. Fingers crossed for that!

I was just reading this and had to say that you'll be in my neck of the woods for Christmas. I hope you guys have a great time. Any shows or anything planned?

Oh, and I'm sorry about your heat situation and am glad the dogs are ok. How scary.

 

[dwheatl]

Danielle last night I dreamed about you and Brian. I went on a trip to California and decided to surprise you so I showed up at your house.

I'd be so happy to see you. But at least call from the airport so I can pick up the dirty laundry and run the vacuum around, OK?

I feel your pain and I agree with all your reasons as to why it's not worth it!! I almost skipped weigh in today. Almost. But I have never skipped a weigh in, not even when I gained 9 pounds after Disney. LOL So I grimaced and hopped on the scale.

Good girl. I really try to be honest with my weight on here, otherwise I can just see myself slinking away.
I'm up .2 since last Friday. I was better than I can ever remember on a Thanksgiving. No biscuits or potatoes, sugar-free cranberries, reduced-sugar pumpkin pie. However, I did say I was making yesterday my splurge day, and I did have real pecan pie, and a small slice of chocolate chip cheesecake. I think I had about 2500 calories yesterday. That was with going to two houses, one for lunch and one for dinner.
The big news is my latest grand-niece was born yesterday. DH and I went Christmas shopping today, and got her present as well as some for my other grand-nieces and grand-nephew. I love shopping for the little ones.
Shopping for the rest of my family makes me nuts.

Now tell me - in the UK we have turkey for our Christmas dinner, but in the States you have that for Thanksgiving - so what do you have for Christmas dinner?! I am very excited about what I may be given in Vegas!!

We will have turkey again, but some have roast beef, some have lamb, some have ham, and others have ethnic food like tamales or lasagna. Now I'm getting hungry!
Are you coming to California when you're in Vegas? We'll be in So Cal Dec. 30-Jan. 4.

Yes we are going to see the new Cirque De Soleil show at the Luxor - VERY excited! May try get Mamma Mia tickets as well! Got trips planned to Grand Canyon, and Death Valley as well. My parents are seeing Phantom of the Opera, which we saw there in June 2007. We absolouely love Vegas and LA - 2nd only to Florida!!! Whats the weather like there this time of year?!

Congrats on your niece!! Does she have a name yet?

Oh lamb - I would love to see that on my plate!!! DG doesnt eat it so I hardly ever do it at home, and I love it so much.

We're not officially coming to California to stay, but I've always wanted to see the Disney parks decorated for Christmas. So we are talking about possibly driving there one day (a very long day I know!!!) and just going round Disneyland for a few hours to look at all the decorations. I think it would be a waste of a day, a lot of money just to see some decorations, a lot of time and a lot of gas . . . but I really want to do it, so we will see!!

I'm typing loads to stop my hands from freezing up! Roll on Wednesday!

 

[DisneyObsession]

No time to catch up...drive-by post for me......SAMER!

 

[UtahMama]

For sure it is!!!!

Sorry the back is still feeling badly.

FWIW, I managed to go down .5 When I'm the holiday chef, I really don't eat too much. Guess that worked in my favor this week, because I certainly don't exercise.

Yayyy Kathi!
Thanks! I just messed it up somehow but it is feeling much better.

OMG I am up another 2 pounds this friday for a grand total of +5 pounds!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am sure at least 2 of those are water weigh from yesterday and the fact that I have been sick for over 3 weeks! but enough excuses it's UNACCEPTABLE!

Here are 5 reasons why eating bad are not worth it by LMO:

1. I did not get up this morning until 10:30 am!!! and I felt like a complete useless miserable slug this morning with bags under my eyes and my fingers were bloated I couldnt even put my wedding band on!

2. I do not feel like doing anything today

3. I feel my butt jingle behind me when I walk

4. I do not feel healthy

5. Non of my cute new clothes are probably going to fit me today

and I can not think of ONE good reason why I should of ate so much so you do the math!

so mad at myself but I know I know how to do the right things just have to ensure I do there...trust me I am determined!

Poor Lauren! I toadilly understand!!! Get back to the basics and you'll do fine!

Your butt jingles????

Good morning! I am -2 for this week! I was sure I was going to be up, especially since my in-laws were staying with us the past couple of days and they are total snackers and insisted on taking us out to dinner on Wednesday night. I tried soooo hard to be good!!! I was careful with what I ate yesterday, and was also in charge of the kiddos at the kids table, so I was constantly getting up and down trying to get them eating their dinner. So that helped. I hope I can carry this momentum through the holiday parties!

UtahMama - I hope you are feeling better soon!

Holy cow! That's so good! It's hard to lose on the weeks right around the holidays...YOU ROCK!

I feel your pain and I agree with all your reasons as to why it's not worth it!! I almost skipped weigh in today. Almost. But I have never skipped a weigh in, not even when I gained 9 pounds after Disney. LOL So I grimaced and hopped on the scale.

Last week I was up four pounds from 214 to 218, and this week I am +1.6 at 219.6. UGH!

I had planned to lose the weight from last week and then some, but a visit from my mom and several meals out with her, Thanksgiving and Aunt Flo are all working to make that very difficult.
I am definitely going in the wrong direction but that is going to change starting now!!!

You can do it!!!

THAT is officially my favorite "excuse" of all time!
I heart you, Pooh!!! I HAVE to weigh nakie too.

This is day 5 without heat, just hope we don't get snow again this weekend!! I am quite the sexy beast in my three pairs of pj's and thick socks . . . lucky DH!!!!!!!

I'm sure you are quite the hottie in all that!

No time to catch up...drive-by post for me......SAMER!

"Saming" THIS week qualifies you for PEEP sainthood!!!

Oooh, fun! I hope the show is good! Did you know Mamma Mia tix are half off right now? It's a great show. Here is the link if you want to check it out: http://shows.travelzoo.com/las-vegas-shows/

Travelzoo has great deals. As for the weather it's been in the mid to upper 60's during the day. In the 40's at night. Have a great time!

 

[dwheatl]

Congrats on your niece!! Does she have a name yet?

Her name is Zooey. Pronounced zoo-e.

 

[::Snow_White::]

dwheatl--Congratulations! That's a cute name!

Today it was so hard to exercise. We had our thanksgiving meal today because we were busy thursday and I felt blech. I didn't eat too bad, and I had a salad, but I just now finished my wii fit workout and it was harder than usual.
I think I hurt my ankle last week while running and it hurts to run so I've been off the running for awhile. I tried again today for 10 minutes and it was killing me after about 5, so I'll just stay off it for awhile longer.

I went on a rage and cleaned my whole room today, dusting and all so now I have a nice clean floor to do yoga on.
I hope everyone had a great day!

 

[Pooh's-Honey-Pot]

OK despite the cold, and the fact I'm two days late I finally stripped off and weighed - -.5! I will definitely take that though I'm not sure if I believe it!!

Oooh, fun! I hope the show is good! Did you know Mamma Mia tix are half off right now? It's a great show. Here is the link if you want to check it out: http://shows.travelzoo.com/las-vegas-shows/

Oh no I didn't know - thanks so much! Would love to take my mum to see that while we are there - she adored the film and saw it three times!!

Her name is Zooey. Pronounced zoo-e.

I have never heard that before - thats so pretty!!

 

[DisneyLaura]

Sending pixie dust for Mom.

I know the doctors know what they are doing, but I'm sending this link because this is what was making my brother so sick last year. He was infected with H pylori, and he got so thin and tired because he couldn't eat much of anything.
http://www.webmd.com/digestive-disorders/digestive-diseases-gastritis

Good luck.

She had a EGD (a tube that goes down your throat and they look), do you think they would have picked something like that up. I have heard of Helicobacter Pylori as I work in the pathology department (tissue department) in the hospital.

Laura~ I hope your mom starts feeling better soon. Hopefully the doc will be able to sort it out. I'm not sure I'd wait until Dec 8th though if she's losing a noticable amount of weight.

She's not losing a lot of weight, sorry if it sounded like that. She's just very thin to begin with and her face that day for some reason looked very drawn in when I saw her in the morning. But then I saw her that night and she looked just like her self. She was in a lot of pain this weekend. She even took her Perocet which she doesn't like to do.

IBolt was super cute, and pretty funny. The hamster was adorable.

I want to take the kids to see this too, glad you liked it.

3. NEED to badly!!! Feeling very ( I know, TMI!!!)

There's your weight gain right there

OMG I am up another 2 pounds this friday for a grand total of +5 pounds!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am sure at least 2 of those are water weigh from yesterday and the fact that I have been sick for over 3 weeks! but enough excuses it's UNACCEPTABLE!

HAng in there kiddo. I think being sick totally is the reason. It is an excuse. Who wants to exercise when they are sick. Once you feel better you'll lose what you gained. Oh #3 made me laugh because if you ever saw mine it probably jangles.

Now tell me - in the UK we have turkey for our Christmas dinner, but in the States you have that for Thanksgiving - so what do you have for Christmas dinner?! I am very excited about what I may be given in Vegas!!

We have ham for Christmas.

Naughty List is too big this week...you KNOW who you are! (Chickens! )

Oh I am on the naughty list but only because Friday I went into work so I didn't have time in the morning to post. But I did weigh and it showed I lost but then this morning I weighed myself again so I can post and it showed I lost are you ready here the drum roll




-.1

Does that even count as a loss? I'll go with same which I'm glad because I ate cake yesterday and pizza (it was DD's birthday party). I am going to start my excerise routine today too. I have the DVD that Gina told me to get - Walk away the pounds. I'm doing it today after probably in the afternoon.

Shoot, at least its DOWN! Hee hee!

There's officially no naughty list this week...but NEXT week the gloves are off. (J/K!!) ((hear that, snarky new girls???))

Cake and pizza Ohhh maaaan, I want some bad carbs!!! Seriously, someone needs to tie me to a tree till I come to my senses!!!


Ok, girlies, I lost that pound I found on friday (plus a fraction more, WOOOT!)! Now, if I can manage to score a nice loss next friday, I'll be very

YOU caught me, I'm playing hookie from church today

 

[DisneyObsession]

So DH and I had a de-stressing night and went to the mall for awhile. Well, we ended up at a restaurant called "The Melting Pot" which is a fondue restaurant. I am stuffed but it didn't seem like I ate that much after a 2 1/2 hr dinner and finishing with a chocolate fondue! We had a fabulous time!

Back to the treadmill and eating right tomorrow!

How has your weekend been???

BTW Wendy.........BUSTED!!!!!!!

 

[lovealldisney]

Hi all!

Hope everyone had a good Turkey weekend! I'm not going to do the Christmas challenge. I think I am going to wait until after. We are so crazy busy here with the kids and school I find I have no time to exercise. Plus I caught this virus and was sick for 2 weeks! I even lost my voice!

So far though I have managed to stay the same with weight. I have really been trying hard to watch what I eat. I hopefully will get back on track come January.

You know my body must not be used to such rich foods. Turkey day came and I ate but within a half hour I was running for the bathroom! Not that you want to know that but I really can't eat like that anymore. Do any of you find that to?


Have a great week everyone!!

I was going to say the same thing

Not that you want to know that but I really can't eat like that anymore. Do any of you find that to?

Me either


Ok I would like to make an annoucement - I exercised last night like I told everyone. I did Walk away the pounds dvd. They have a 3 mile "walk" and a 4 mile "walk" and I was only able to do 2 miles but I felt so good afterwards. Now I plan to do this every other day and then try to put some weight training in there too. I am on sparkpeople and I know they did you some exercises to do so that's what I am going to do.

 

[LMO429]

Ok Peeps! Its a Monday and the first of the month! I feel like I am starting fresh today because it is the first day I woke up where I did not have a coughing fit. Bronchitis was no fun and really hindered my health!

Going to brush the dust off my Jillian Michaels 30 day shred today

 

[UGABelle]

Happy Belated Thanksgiving Peeps!

Hope everyone had a great turkey day. We were travelling so I didn't get a chance to weigh myself till this morning, but ... I'm a SAMER! Not bad considering having 2 Thanksgivings and AF on the way.

I'm hoping to eat a little better and exercise more this week to start seeing a bigger loss. I don't think the food part will be a problem, but this always seems like a busy time of year for us and exercising seems to fall by the wayside...doesn't mean I won't try though!

Have a great day!
