Hi all! Long time no "see"! Been a busy couple-a weeks. Budget season at work, trip to Vegas, birthday, bought a car, asked to be in a close friend's wedding taking place on the same day my wife is standing up in a wedding, dealt with drama with the duel weddings, resolved the duel wedding drama, slowly gained three pounds, and finally somehow managed to lose all three last week. Phew! At the end of it all, I'm just about where I was at the beginning of the holidys. But with Thanksgiving, Disney, Christmas, Vegas, and my birthday all happening in the past two and a half months, I can't really complain about staying the same. Can I? I've gotten into a really good exercise routine lately. I even hit the cardio center in my Vegas hotel every morning for a 1/2 hour session of run three minutes, walk two minutes. I think that, along with snow shoveling, really helped me lose those three pounds last week. But with birthday cake last week, as well as my birthday meal (which turned into birthday meal leftovers), we'll see if I gain any of that back this week.
Couple things I read on here that I wanted to comment on. Height/weight - I'm currently 5'8", 164. That's either the upper range of "normal" or the lower range of "overweight", depending on who you ask. I tend to lean towards "overweight" because of how I look in the mirror. I can't determine if I have a small build, medium build, etc. I have small hands, small feet, small wrists. So that would indicate a slight build. But I'm broader in the upper body (shoulder, chest, back) than other people that I've seen with a small build. So I'm sort of a 'tweener, I guess.
I agree with Lauren that Biggest Loser is getting a little old. I mainly tune in to see the last 5 minutes - the elimination and to see how the eliminated player looks now. Otherwise it just doesn't hold my interest any more.
Count me in as a Lostie!
Have a great rest of the week everybody!

Should be fun! 
and I have never seen such quick results from doing an at home workout dvd!
I am about 2 days shy of 12 weeks along at this point. And I've been anxiously awaiting today partly because I was dying to come on here and tell you all. Today was my doctor's appointment where we were supposed to hear the heartbeat. The nurse couldn't find it, so they brought in the little sono machine, and we got to SEE the baby! Kicking and punching and waving! The nurse who did the sono said it was no wonder the other nurse couldn't hear the heartbeat because the baby was moving around so much. Anyway she got a rate of 142 bpm from the sono, so all is well, and I couldn't wait to share the news with my Peeps. While I can't try to lose any weight for a while, I will certainly be continuing to try to stay healthy - eating right, staying as active as I can, drinking my water, and I want to spend more time around here even though I won't be losing. I am due 9/12, and I will definitely be needing to do some losing then! 
to everyone! Hope you are doing well!!
