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

[dwheatl]

Hey, Peeps, it's good to see more folks coming back. I've been a naughty peep, but tomorrow morning I am going to WW to start over. I seem to do better when I have some external accountability.

Good luck with babies and weddings and trips and job changes and everything else coming up.

hi Everyone!! I've been a samer with my pregnancy so I'm happy and the doctor because they didnt want me to gain the 25 pounds I did with Aniella so with this one I'm at 20 weeks with a 5 pound weight gain so far but its good because I can see the bad fat is falling off me and feel better about that.

Just found out IT'S A BOY!! So super excited... and only 35 days till I'm in Disney, hope everyone is doing well and I'll check in soon!

Congratulations!

Hi Peeps!!!

I know I've been MIA for a while. I'm not sure I even know where to begin. We had our Disney trip in May, I photographed a wedding in June and July and am about to do another tomorrow. I've been editing photos in ALL my "spare" time. I have gone on a couple of weekend trips and been to a couple of concerts (including No Doubt w/Paramore and Fall Out Boy w/Panic at the Disco). And my uncle passed away. (This was the uncle with stage 4 lung cancer.) My full time job has been absolutely CRAZY. I work at a clinic in HR, and there are talks of us integrating with our partner hospital. And what I have NOT been doing is working out nearly as much as I was and tracking my calories on Sparkpeople. That's not to say I've gone hog wild, but I haven't been working as hard, and it is starting to show. I NEED to get back on track. I will be doing the best I can. I will still need to be doing a lot of work on pictures, but I will try to squeeze in more work out time. And next Friday I will weigh in and figure out exactly how much damage has been done.

I've really missed the Peeps, and I hope everyone has been doing great! I will still be really busy for a while, but I will be making an effort to post more often. Love you all!

Wow! You're way busy - all sounds great!

Hey everyone, hope you're doing well!

I'm giving my two weeks notice at my job today, I've only been there for a month, but I really can't stand it. School is way too important to me and I've already got a million things that I'll need off for and stuff I need done that I can't do when I'm working. I came home and cried yesterday because I couldn't handle the people and the fact that I had too many things going on. On top of that, when I'm working all day I have no time to exercise or eat enough healthy things! My parents think it's a good idea and have no problem with me waiting and finding something I love to do. Wish me luck, I don't know how my boss will respond. I'm sure she's had a few people tell her at least.

Congrats on finding out it is a boy!! And on keeping down the weight!!

 

[ArielSRL]

I am +.2 this week but I can live with it. School is still crazy (working 11 hr days, and one day was 13.5 hrs b/c of Open House at night). Plus we had a baby shower at work with cake and cheesecake and I enjoyed some of both! I am really hoping next week is the week things start settling down so I can start working out again. At least I am much more active during the day while at work, as opposed to sitting a lot in the summer.

Congratulations!

Thank you, I just started shopping now and can't wait to go to Disney and get him his first Disney Bear!

To each, their own! Whatever works best for each person, whatever helps someone stick to a healthier plan than they used to!

I'm sure that the food industry is doing everything they can in order to make our food healthier, the more people start eating organic and shopping exclusively at health food stores/whole foods and purchase healthier kinds of food the more the food industry would have to alter the way they make processed foods in order for cosumers to buy them again. its about choice the more people buy fast foods/quick and easy processed foods the more the food industry will produce more of it..the same goes for healthy foods if people went food shopping and just skipped processed foods entirely the food industries would have no choice but to produce better food for us. But im not holding my breath I know its not going to happen.


I understand every once in awhile you can get busy and have to eat lean cuisines/smart ones etc I do it as well, but I just know at the end of the day its not that good for me. anything diet/100 calorie, low fat, no fat etc etc has a million chemicals in it..even the lean cuisines are strip of any real nutrients and I know when I flipped the book over I can not pronoun half the ingredients.

OMG, I just ate a skinny cow vanilla cone, and it was dreamy. Caramel and chocolate on vanilla.

I haven't been to WW in a couple of years. I swear you get more food now (or maybe it's the emphasis on high fiber foods like fruit, veggies, and whole grain foods). I've been feeling really full and satisfied so far.

 

[Disneyfreak92]

Just checking in really quick on my lunch break! Howdy Peeps! Hope everyone is having a great week. Mine is OK. I am super sore from the wedding I did on Saturday, but it's improving. I forgot to mention the other day that Extreme Makeover: Home Edition is in our area right now. They will be revealing the house to the family today. DH and I went out to the site Sunday. It was really neat. I took a few pics with my little camera. I will try to post a couple later. The episode is supposed to air on October 25th if anyone is interested.

hi everyone

I hope that all is well with each of you. I'll be back in a couple of weeks and I promise that I'll rejoin in losing weight.

Later

I love me some Skinny Cow for sure. I like the cone, but LOVE the chocolate truffle bar!

I love the chocolate ones. LOVE! Do the vanilla ones have that chocolate coating on the inside of the cone?

 

[mousehouselover]

I'm going shopping in the morning; I may have to pick up some of htese skinny cow ice creams.


I've been busy this week but it's been a good week. I've been OP and the scale has been showing it. I'm hoping for a nice looking number in the morning.

They do! I loved the top, with chocolate and caramel, and then down through the cone, chocolate coating, and then the bottom was filled with chocolate, almost like a tiny chocolate cone inside the regular one.

[DisneyObsession]

WEll...I might as well start off the WI's today.....-1.5! I have officially taken the 8's out of my numbers and am thrilled!!! I just have to make sure I make wise choices this weekend as DH & I are going away for a 3 day weekend. We will be looking at venues for the rehearsal dinner for DS's wedding next June. Now to add exercise somehow......

Hope everyone is doing well. Nothing new here other than LOTS of Overime at work. (Which looks very good in my paycheck!)

I'll check back tonight when I get home. Happy Day!

 

[HockeyKat]

They do! I loved the top, with chocolate and caramel, and then down through the cone, chocolate coating, and then the bottom was filled with chocolate, almost like a tiny chocolate cone inside the regular one.

Ohhh!! I am so going to have to try one. I love caramel.

My weekend is busy, busy. I have 3 hockey games between today and tomorrow, tonight at 8:30PM, tomorrow at 8AM and 5:45PM. Sunday I am doing a 5K at 8:30AM and then might have another game, at 11:30AM. Sun afternoon I am collapsing!!

WDW trip is in 2 weeks! We will be there from Sept 10-20... 10-13 at CSR, 13-18 at BCV, and 18-20 back to CSR. 13-18 is a family trip, and the rest of the nights are for D and I to enjoy.

Hey Peeps! I have weighed in at 196.2. That's down from last week by about 2 lbs, but up from my last weigh in (AGES ago in June!) by about 2 lbs. Of course I had never lost all of my weight from my May WDW trip. So in order to get back to my lowest weight, I need to lose about 8 lbs, I think. Anyway, I'm ready to get rid of it, so let's see how it goes. I'm working on pics today (as usual) and hopefully going to the movies tonight to see 500 Days of Summer.

Hey Lauren! Our trips overlap again! Want to try for a meet again? We are at SSR from Dec 5th - Dec 13th.

Ohhh!! I am so going to have to try one. I love caramel.

I love caramel too! I'm gonna have to see if I can find these.

Hi Everyone!

We are back from the Coast, had a fantastic week but now I feel fat and disgusting! I am so getting back on track!

I have read back - ARIES, congratulations on finding out its a boy!

Hope everyone is having a good day

 

[dwheatl]

My weigh-ins will now be on Saturday, since that's my WW day. I am Down 2.6. Not the best for a first week at WW, but I don't have as much to lose as I used to, and I kept some of my good habits all along (exercise, water). I told DH I could have lost more this week if I had let myself totally go off the wagon before, but of course it's better to have less to lose and take it off gradually.

WEll...I might as well start off the WI's today.....-1.5! I have officially taken the 8's out of my numbers and am thrilled!!! I just have to make sure I make wise choices this weekend as DH & I are going away for a 3 day weekend. We will be looking at venues for the rehearsal dinner for DS's wedding next June.

Woo hoo. Gotta love dropping a digit! Hope you are enjoying your weekend. And if you're away with DH, I could suggest some exercise, since UM's not here to drop the insinuendos.

Ohhh!! I am so going to have to try one. I love caramel.

Lucky you, nice to have family time and time to yourselves.

That's funny that we think alike. I told DH that I took off the post-Paris lbs this week, so my next goal is to take off the European lbs, then go from there.
I get the Skinny Cows at Costco. The box comes with some vanilla cones, some chocolate, and the vanilla truffle bars. They are all excellent!

Hope everyone is having a good day

Glad you had a nice trip. Don't beat yourself up. I read something from a dietician that said we are supposed to feast once in a while, then get back to healthy eating. The problem is when we continually feast.

Have a great week, everyone!
