~DISappearing PEEPS~Vol. IV Come Play With Us!!!!!

[Disneyfreak92]

Hey Peeps

I am back from WDW! We had a fabulous time!!!!!!!! I came back to snow! UGH! I was not a good peep while I was away. My mom and I split everything the first 4 days we where there but the last 4 days we just went to town. I think I ate the entire supply of sugar cookies they were so ridiculously delicious. It was nice to just have 8 days not worrying about weight and exercising I just enjoyed myself. I am back on the wagon today. I also got to meet Lynda (disneyfreak92) she was super sweet!!!! and it was a pleasure meeting her

Hi all! I have been back from WDW for not quite a week now (and trying to get rid of a minor cold before Christmas), and I am getting back on track. Man, I NEED to! Just wanted to check in really quick and say that Lauren was super sweet as well!!!! I'm so glad we got to meet, and I hope we'll get to see each other again in the future.

We did our Christmas get-together with friends last night, and we have a busy week ahead of us, but I'm looking forward to it. Happy Holidays Peeps!!! I will try to check in again very soon.

Thanks Nat.
I wasn't sure how fast someone would usually go on the program, so I'm probably just beating myself up for no reason.

My mom bought me my main christmas present last night...A TREADMILL!
I'm so happy, I used it last night and it's kind of bouncy so it's not as hard on my knees. It's a Weslo and works really well. Now I don't have to run back and forth to a family members house to use theirs. My brother is starting the C25K too, so he'll be using it and the rest of the family is doing their EA active 30 day challenge so they are all exercising. Hooray!

Hope you all have a great day!

Congrats on the treadmill!!! I wish I had a better one, the one I bought was a used 2001 model But it's what my budget could afford. I hope I can invest in a better one next fall if I continue my plan for doing the 1/2 marathon next January!

I think on the C25K they want you to run a 10 minute mile, so you can finish the 5K in 30 minutes. BUT - if I tried doing that I would still be on week two and VERY discouraged. Now I'm on week 7 and can run almost the whole time.

Enjoy your 'mill!

Hi everyone! Finally starting to get settled back in after being out for two weeks. One week in Disney, another week visiting family in state. I weighed myself after getting home from Disney World last week Monday, and I think I did ok. First few days were great - we split everything and I probably ate less than I do at home. The lLast few days we ate way too many apple turnovers and ice cream. But weighing myself at night with clothes on, I think I'll be ok. Then Tuesday morning we headed out the door again to visit family around Wisconsin. So yeah, I'm starting to get settled into my normal routine again.

Lauren - did you happen to eat at Tony's Town Square on Friday (12/11) for lunch? We were sitting in the waiting area after listening to the Daper Dan's open the place, and I looked across and saw someone sitting across from us that I thought looked like you (with a lady that would have been old enough to be your mom). But having never seen you in person, I wasn't sure so I didn't say anything. But just curious if it was you or not.

Have a great day everyone!

I last posted on this Dec 7th...Since that point I've lost 5 more pounds - It's hard for me to remember Fridays, since my weekly weigh-in is officially Tuesday! Either way, I'm chugging along and journalling in a WISH journal my dailies.

 

[natale1980]

Down -1.8

This means that I have finally lost 10lbs!!! It's about time!!!

Congratulations Nat!

 

[::Snow_White::]

Thanks Nat, and congratulations!
Good luck on your 1/2 marathon!

Went to the grandparents house and opened some gifts. Got a few cute disney things, some shoes, and a disney princess waffle maker! We know who will be making whole oat castle waffles tomorrow! I skipped the treadmill today, but hope to be back on it tomorrow evening after all the excitment is over. Hopefully I'll have a new workout video to use too!

Hope you all have a Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!

Hi all who remember me,

Just wanted to check in. I was one of the original members of this board.. thought I would just pop in and say Merry Christmas!

Unbelievable, another year has come and gone. My girls are now 15 and 13. Where does the time go? I am currently snowed in at home in Omaha. Blizzard conditions.. yuck. I hope this finds you all very well.

I am going to re-start my weight loss journey in January. Have a big family weddiing in October and hope to bring to them a new Belinda. My plan is to also quit smoking... so a two-fold battle......

I think of my friends here often... occasionally read about your success' and tribulations..


wishing you all a Merry Christmas and a wonderful new year!!!

Love,
Bee

Merry Chrismas​

I hope everyone is having a wonderful (and safe...) holiday!!

Bee!!!!! OMGoodness it's been so long since we've seen you! I'm glad you came over to say "Hi!"

 

[dwheatl]

Merry Christmas all!
Bee, I hope to see you here in January.

 

[Bee]

Merry Christmas all!
Bee, I hope to see you here in January.

Honey, it is so nice that you want me here in January. Yes, I was an original. I am just not sure if I am welcome here. Considering all the drama that took place... Not going into that anymore.. just suffice it to say... 2.5 yrs out... there is still MAJOR drama from time to time.

So, if people want me here again.. on a supportive and hopefully caring journey, I will be back.. However, my feelings will not be hurt if members feel that it would be better for all if I find a new place.

I do still care for all here....

Love,
Bee

 

[natale1980]

Bee - I've only been here for about 8 weeks and have no idea what your talking about. BUT - I think we are all here for the same reason, to get support on our weight loss / getting in shape journey. I would love it if you joined us. The more the merrier.

MERRY MERRY CHRISTMAS

I need to join you Bee! I also was one of the originals - and I can honestly say that I've gained about 20# from when I first started. Sad that! So after I get back from Disney - I am seriously going to watch, and write what I put in my mouth!

I really thought heading down for the marathon would get me going down in pounds! Right now I may have Trochanteric Bursitis which is a huge pain in my hip - and prevents me from any exercising -

I miss the Peep friendship! I will say my online time is quite sporadic....

 

[pixie dust 112]

OK so if Bee and Sandy are back in January I'm back too! Another original peep here! I had probably lost about 25 or 30, but now an mack where I started 3 years ago...guess it's better than a gain! I feel like such a slug. We used to have so much fun here and I would love to start again...but I am gong to make next Friday, January 1st my first new weigh in. I'd love to start seeing ribbons in my signature again!

 

[::Snow_White::]

Hope you all had a merry christmas!

I ended up getting a few workout clothes and a workout step with 2 workout videos with it as well as the treadmill we bought earlier. I went to old navy about a week ago and found some yoga pants on sale. They are SO comfy, I'd wear them 24/7 if I could.

I'm eating okay foods but too much of them, but I'm still working out, just not as much as I'd like. Noticed the 3rd week of C25K was running 1 1/2 then walking 1 1/2 and then running THREE minutes. I thought you kept running 1 1/2. I might try it in a few minutes, since I'm sweating more walking at an incline for 30 minutes than for my runs!

Just bought some songs off itunes, so hopefully that'll keep me moving. Hope you all have a great afternoon/evening.

 

[dwheatl]

Hey Sandy and PD. I'll be looking for you in January. Don't make me hunt y'all down.
I've stayed in touch here all along, but haven't always been the most dedicated peep. I think I have a net loss of about 2 lbs. Again, better than a gain.
Snow White - That you're able to keep up a routine during the holidays is great. So many people just totally put it on hold until January.

 

[redlight]

I weighed myself after a couple weeks' absence from the scale. 161?! eek.
