He was born May 21st at 11:22 am. 6lb 7oz and 18 1/2 inches. He was a little small but was born by C-section after 3 very difficult hours of labor.
I am total love with this darling boy.

Here's EJ with the proud daddy, my brother!

Hi Peeps!

We are back from 13 days of vacation! We spent 8 nights at WDW and also did a 4 night cruise on the Disney wonder! We had an amazing time except for the last 4 days where it just rained the entire time. We made the best of it but towards the end i couldnt take the rain anymore. I actually worked out on the cruise everyday we went on the cruise first, we stayed at Beach club's concierge level so I had sugar cookies multiple times during the day and I didnt care they were just that good.

I have to catch on the the thread and see what I missed! which does not look like that much very quiet around here how come?!

So sorry about the rain but good job on the exercising on the cruise. Hope you will share pictures with us.



I'm here peeps. I weighed myself Friday morning and I was up 3 lb, weighed myself Saturday morning and I lost that 3 lb so I guess I'm a samer
 
Hello everyone.
I'm so sorry I haven't been on in about a month! I've been wrapping things up this school year and really trying to work on the exercising and food choice. I've worked out everyday since school has been out, and I'm taking a break for a day since I've just about worn myself out. My muscles have been sore all week, and my food choice has been going quite well. I'm really trying to get into shape before the next school year. I haven't weighed myself since a few weeks ago so I'll try and start again this coming Friday. Yesterday we had chinese, and I didn't go up for seconds like usual and today we went to see Night at the Museum: Battle of the Smithsonian (So good!) and I only had 2 cups of popcorn and I brought some nuts with me to keep myself from getting more as well as some green tea. I also bought Jillian Michael's 30 day shred today and she kicked my rear end! I had to stop several times (Even though she said not to) because I didn't think I could finish it, even on level 1! I proceeded and made myself finish even though I was shaking and now I feel great. I hope everyone has been doing well. :)
 
MIA big time. I wont even apologize because I cant promise I'll be very regular...UGH, sorry!

With weight...I'm halfway into the next lower set of numbers on the scale. WOOT.

My divorce is pending...school is GREAT (start again tomorrow with 2 new MED classes), new wonderful boyfriend, kids are really doing well(ish), still love to weight train and "eat clean".

Happy Memorial Day Peeps!!!!!!

FANTASTIC news UM - all of it. Glad to hear everyone is doing well, and that you are taking care of YOU. Remind me again what it is you are doing at school - I want to say nursing?

Great to see you around here again!
 

Hello everyone...

I haven't posted in ages - well, never on this newest Peeps thread!

Can I come back???:worship:

My eating and exercise habits haven't been terribly fabulous, but...for various and sundry reasons I realize that doing the same thing I've always done has resulted in the same, less-than-healthy body I've always had.

So, to start off, I must say that I weigh 178 pounds. I have a goal in mind for July 4 - 168 pounds. I think a loss of 10 pounds is pretty reasonable.

I also have to admit that on Saturday I did Jillian Michaels' "30 Day Shred" workout, and am now unable to walk normally, much less go up and down stairs. It's comical, but painful.

It's been great to go back and catch up with all of you - except Wendy, I am so sorry for the utter he.. you've been through! Remember that "that which does not kill us only makes us stronger," and we're here to help if we can. It sounds like you're doing well now, moving forward and creating a really wonderful new life. Best wishes, sister.:grouphug:

Have a great week, everyone!

Good to see you back. Ten pounds sounds doable. ::yes::
 
I was looking at your ticker a few days ago thinking how soon your wedding was now! It seems like just yesterday you were telling us all about getting engaged.

And yes, nobody will weigh you on your wedding day but it makes a difference to you and how YOU feel. And no matter what I am sure you will be beautiful!


Hope everyone is having a good weekend :goodvibes
I know..my ticker scares me!! hahaahh..thanks though, i am sure regardless of what that scale says on the day, i will feel happy and pretty :) hahahh BUT i am still going to push myself until then!

MIA big time. I wont even apologize because I cant promise I'll be very regular...UGH, sorry!

GIRRRLLLL..so glad things are great :) we miss you ..but understand!

Hello everyone...

Have a great week, everyone!
:goodvibes Hi again!


So i was SOOO unpeeperific this weekend..so i have till now till friday morning to detox ! ahahahah...2 cookouts, a fancy birthday dinner and little exercise will make one feel like a blob! :rotfl:
 
So...

I hate to brag, but I make wicked good chocolate chip cookies. Really, really tasty. Anyway, I made some a couple of days ago, and finished a couple off tonight. Oops!

I'm now resolved not to make any more cookies for the foreseeable future. Hey, if I just can't help myself, they can't be in the house.

Now I'm out the door to go on a (late) walk. Back on the wagon!
 
It's Friday, right?

I'll post my weight - I'm down 1 pound, from 178 to 177. It doesn't feel like much, but it's the right direction. :)

Hope everyone has a BEAUTIFUL weekend!
 
Slow day?!

I am -.8 this week. I'll take it...I have been less active than usual the past week so anything lost is great to me!

Hope everyone is having a good day!!
 
Hi Peeps!

This week was not good for me...Stressful work week + company coming this weekend = no time to work out and +0.8. Boo :mad: I'm still within the normal 5 lb range I fluctuate between, but before vacation I was closer to the low end and now I'm near the high end...sigh.

Just gotta keep working at it :goodvibes

Happy weekend! :hippie:
 
Howdy Peeps! I'm back!!!! :)We actually got back on Sunday, but I've been busy with laundry and loading pics onto the computer and facebook. So if you're on facebook, you can check out the highlights. I'll start uploading them to my website tomorrow. We had a great time, but we had a LOT of rain! I have never seen that much rain down there before. It got a bit old, but we made the most of it, and had a lot of fun.

Well, now for weigh in :scared1:...I HAD gained 11.4 lbs as of Tuesday, but I guess a LOT of that was water because as of this morning I am down to a gain of 4.8 lbs since before the trip. I can SO deal with that!!! Not a bad price to pay for a week at Disney! ;) So I'm at 194.2. I should change my ribbon, but I'm not going to yet because I am looking at this as a very temporary situation at this point.

I hope everyone has been doing well while I was gone. I'll try to catch up a bit tomorrow, but I'm not counting on that happening. I still have a lot of post-trip work to do around the house, and I have my first wedding of the year coming up in two weeks, so I need to get things under control! So if anyone wants to give me a rundown of anything important I missed, I'd be totally OK with that. :)
 
I'm up 1.2 lbs. DH and I were talking today. It's almost like I'm trying to gain weight. Work is VERY stressful right now, a ton of bureaucratic bs to deal with, and personality clashes as well. I don't know how to deal with that and family crises without turning to food. DH is gaining weight right now, too. Maybe tomorrow he and I can talk about how to get back on track.
The hard part is we can't go for a walk to blow off steam, because his hip and back are causing so much pain. Then I project that this will ruin our trip, and I eat in response to that as well.
OK, that's enough whiney-therapy for me. Congrats to the losers this week!
 
Hi all~

We made it back from a soggy week at WDW. It was mostly dry on DD's b-day so we had a pretty good day. The wet and house hunting stress took a pretty big toll on DH so he was tired and achy a lot. We were very happy we had a jacuzzi tub in our room. We were able to borrow a few movies and a game from the community hall and the kids got to go play video games and hang with other kids on the day we decided not to do the parks in the rain. (We really liked DVC before, now we're totally in love with it!!! We didn't have the best vacation but the perks and features saved us from staring at teh walls all day long.)

House hunting is going painfully slow. We have found a few places that seem promising but there's always something that doesn't quite fit us. I'm trying to keep my spirits up though. Our agent is a gem; she goes to teh homes and takes pictures to suppliment what's in the listing. She specializes in long distance moves and as a plus, understands DH's humor and an animal lover.

I am very happy to report that I am +1 lb from my trip. I weiged on Mon and was up 4.8 but lost most of it so I am quite pleased with myself. I know most of it was water weight but I have once again gone on vacation, had a great (or mostly great) time and come home able to get back into my healthy routines. That is huge progress for me. I'm doing it even though I'm stressed out too!
 
Glad you had a good week at WDW! I love DVC too. Definitely makes the whole experience more relaxing. I forget, where are you moving to again?

It was QUITE a soggy week, wasn't it? DVC does make it all a little better though, I agree. We had a GREAT view, so at least we could enjoy that when we chose to stay in the room.

Your realtor sounds great! We are looking at moving down next year possibly. Would you mind sharing your realtor's info with us? Good luck on the house hunt. I hope you find something perfect. :)
 
Kat~ We're moving to central FL, looking really hard in the St. Cloud area. A lot of it is zoned for horses or light agriculture so it'll be perfect for the critters. It's also about 30 mins to the main gate. :woohoo: So I can be in my happy place any time I want! It's really nice that we can day trip it and save our DVC for Hilton Head, California or my personal fave; Ko'Olina.

Lynda~ PM sent with the info. If you need it again in the future, just ask. :)

Welcome back!

Well my peeps I forgot to weigh in but I know I'm up because AF is here, yuck. But good news is I started my workout program. I'm doing C25K and I just finished my first week. I'm proud of myself it's the most walking/exercise I have done in months. My goal is to run a 5K around town by October and then one next year as well. I'm getting healthy and that's the best part.

For those who know my mom's doing good. Still more chemo, tumor hasn't shrank anymore but it's not spreading either. She went back to work a couple of weeks ago takes off for her chemo and when she's not feeling good.

I have a question for you guys. After a few minutes of walking my ankles hurt, is that my sneakers (I have New Balance walking ones) or is it just my body getting used to my exercising? Thanks for your help.

Laura :flower3:
