Hi Peeps! Hope everyone is doing good...

Well I jump back on the band wagon to lose weight
but now its just to eat healthy bc the weight gain
has a good reason.

That's right this free dinning trip I will have a
Disney Baby inside!

So I guess after Dec./Jan. I will be able to weigh in
but i will be sticking around on the thread and not
disappear this time!

OMG, congrats!!! Another little peep on the way

Hope everyone is having a good week so far. I am not optimistic for the weigh in tomorrow. I skipped my meeting on tues so I will weigh here tomorrow for us...but I have been off work out routine this week. Thunderstorms and rain all week means no boot camp and I took it as an excuse to relax most the week

 

[dance2874]

hey gang
I have been such a posting slacker lately..BUT i have been very good with my working out , and better than i had been with the eating SOOO i hope to see a loss this Friday..even though AF is soon to be here..At this point with just a hair over 5 months to go till the wedding, i can't have any more gain weeks!!

OH i tried on the dress this weekend..and it fits, its actually quite big!! So i was psyched! Real alterations won't happen till August though, so i still have time to make it even more "tenty" hahaha!
have a great HUMP day everyone

I still remember my dress fittings almost 8 yrs ago now. I was so sad because my dress had to be let out

(Random question - what does it say about me that I'm 32 and still chuckle when someone calls Wednesday "hump day"?)

I do that too

Any Biggest Loser watchers? If so, how great was it to see Ron finish that marathon!?! I don't know if I could walk 26.2 miles in a day!

Have a great day everybody!

I was so proud of Ron, I really thought he would quit. I am not really a huge fan of his (how he manipulated some of the votes and lied about it. I know it is all part of the game but at least own up to it.) Anyways, I was very excited for him when he finished. I cant imagine it.

 

[Disneyfreak92]

how cool!!!!! not pathetic at all. i think we all could use a makeover at some point or another. i've always thought about dressing REALLY badly in order to get picked for what not to wear just so they'd give me 5K to spend in NYC!

Me too!!!

Hey Peeps!

We leave for Walt Disney World Tomorrow!

I packed yesterday and my size 8 shorts were 2 big! I had to get the size 6s out and buy a couple of new pairs yesterday!


So I didn't weigh in but I would say my weight = based on how my clothes are fitting

I hope everyone has a nice weekend We wont be back until the 22nd!

i'm so super jealous! and yippee for too-big shorts! you guys come back home the day we leave for NYC! maybe i'll see ya in the airport.

aaron - please take me off the memorial day challenge. i've made a huge decision. i'm no longer concentrating on the numbers. i'm so sick of looking for a loss every week and usually being disappointed. i worked out every day this week and ate really well and my scale says i gained almost 2 pounds. i know some of it is acid in my muscles because i'm sore but i'm still just really sick of looking at a number. my neighbor asked me yesterday if i'd lost more weight so i know i'm losing - it's just the scale sometimes disappoints me and usually on fridays!!!!!!

so that means that i won't be weighing in anymore on fridays. i will still weigh myself about once a week just because i think it's good to know your weight. and i will still definitely stick around here - it's encouraging to see everyone else's progress!

 

[DisneyGalUK]

Lauren - Very cool on the smaller sizes Have a fantastic trip!

Dawn - I totally understand where you are coming from. For me, this feels like 'one last push' at WW. I hope you do continue to stick around here, its always good to read your posts!
I do lurk on your TR though as well

I want to start the Couch to 5k too, where do I start, should I be able to walk a certain time BEFORE I start?

Go to http://c25k.com, which is the unofficial website for the Couch to 5k program. If you go to the Cool Running link on that site, it'll give you a lot of info on it. As for how long you should be able to walk, that is tough to say. I usually walk 5+ miles every night; but I can barely handle the last few 60-second jogs. So it probably depends on the person.

No problem. I've been fighting with that myself. I know that I'm eating well, and I'm exercising at least 60 minutes every day. But the scale isn't budging. I'll lose a pound, gain a pound. Lose a pound, gain a pound. I don't feel like I am depriving myself of anything, so I'm at a point with exercise and diet that I feel like I can maintain a healthy lifestyle with little to no effort. So maybe the low 160's is just where my body wants to be. And compared with the 240's that I started at, I know that I shouldn't be upset about that. But on the other hand, my BMI is on the very upper end of "Normal". If I gain a pound or two, then I'm back in the "Overweight" category. And my initial goal was 155. So I'm still almost 10 pounds from that. That's what I keep struggling with now.

What I don't like is that I've become so OCD with checking my weight (lately I've found myself stepping on the scale 3-4 times a night, every night) that every little fluctuation either makes me really happy or really upset. And that can't be good for my mental health. The thing is, I know that the scale is the only thing keeping me from going back to my old habits. So I really just need to find some middle ground with that. Like you said, maybe go back to weighing myself once a week just to keep myself honest; but not every night like I have been because that just drives me crazy. And I shouldn't use only that number to determine how healthy I am. But it's going to be tough after conditioning myself over the last few years that I'm only making progress when that number moves.

Anyway, I hope everyone has a great day!

Just caught up after a verrry looong weeeek!

my2boys... congrats on graduation!

dance... hope you get the makeover. Sounds very cool!

MA pigletfan... awesome about the dress. Way to go!

aries... congrats!

LMO... awesome! It always feels good to go shopping for the next size SMALLER!

Aaron... I found myself getting WAY OCD about the scale. I finally decided not to leave it out on my floor anymore and tucked it under my bathroom sink. Now I only ALLOW myself to take it out on "Weigh-day". That helps me out a lot.

Now after that being said, I did not like what it said to me this morning... I'm +2. AF is visiting, and I hope most of it is because of that, but yesterday was jammy packed with DD's field trip to the zoo (where we walked our buns off) and DS's first baseball meeting/practice of the year. We didn't get home until late and dinner wasn't the best choice we could have made... just quick to get it done and get everyone to bed. But this week has been crazy and I haven't been on task like I usually am. This next week I'm travelling out to California to take care of more things for my Dad's estate, and I'm going to try to better stay on task while I'm out there.

Hope everyone has a great weekend...

Punkin what airport are you flying into

did you narrow down restaurants/bars yet?

 

[ArielSRL]

Hey peeps. LONG week around here and it is only tuesday We have all been passing around a tummy bug since Friday night. Ick.

I have a diet friendly recommendation for those who have trouble planning meals. I discovered a new site www.e-mealz.com. It is amazing!! For a dollar or so a week you get a full menu plan complete with a shopping list. You can choose low fat, weight watchers points, meals for 2 or 4 and even which store you shop at. I am signed up for the weight watchers menu at walmart and so far it has been awesome. I am saving money by only buying what I need for the meals on my plan (and not wandering around buying 'stuff' to hopefully make a meal later with) and of course snacks and lunch stuff. I have been doing it for about 3 weeks and every recipe we have made has been a keeper so far. If you want to try it out let me know- I can send you a link to save a few dollars off the already cheap price

On another note....I have been selected for an audition this weekend for a makeover show on the Style network!! (called How do I Look) It is just an audition, but I had to send in pictures and I got an email to come Sat at 4 I am so excited yet pretty embarrassed my wardrobe is pathetic enough to get chosen Wish me luck!

Thanks for the site and good luck!!!

I don't do that whole sneak peek thing. I always wondered why some of you did that. I just weigh the one time, every Friday AM. Well except I am not right now, b/c of the crazy end of school year stuff but normally, I just do the one Friday AM weigh in. Not sure sneak peeking is a good idea, right?

Thanks for the link, I currently do not have a walking workout, I used to walk 30-45 minutes on the treadmill but that was over a year ago (my gym closed). I'll go check out the site though and see what they say.


Ok so I weighed myself this morning and I was +.2, does that count Started drinking my water, on glass #2 (my cup is big so it's probably 16 oz)
