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

[redlight]

Thanks everyone.
My current weight is 176.6 so I still have about 15-20lbs to go. My first goal is 175, so I'm very excited that I'm almost there.

yummm....salad & salmon! I had chicken, rice & salsa (better then it sounds.)

It was yummy. We've got about the same amount of weight to lose (I'm probably a couple above what my ticker says) but my goal for this month is not to gain more!

Friday weigh in happened.

-.5 to 207.00

At first, I was mildly dissapointed. I thought I had a good week. Worked out Monday, Wednesday and Thursday. Ate pretty well. But, I'm probably hitting a wall where I can't expect 1 or 2 lbs every week. plus, 207 is a 3 or 4 year low for me. So, hard to be bummed about that.

Good enough. 207 just seems to be my wall. can't wait to see a 206 on the scale.

Lots of great numbers! That is awesome that you all were able to get through the start of the holiday season so well! So I weighed myself this morning for the first time in two weeks, and considering I had to get through three Thanksgiving meals, I was pleasantly surprised to see a 1.4 pound loss! I'm now at 163.4. Still about 8 pounds from my lowest adult weight, but I think I've finally settled on a diet that works for me after I completly stalled (for a year) on Weight Watchers. Now if only I could learn to push myself with exercising a little more, I'd be a happy camper.

I'm heading out of town for two weeks, starting Sunday. So no challenge for me. I'm just hoping to find healthy food options while I'm gone so I don't come back and see a scary number on the scale.

Have a great couple weeks everybody!

I finally decided to face the scales after moving. I wasn't surprised to see a gain for my new baseline. I was surprised with Thanksgiving and going out to eat with my parents a few times that I took off 4 lbs this week, just from being careful the rest of the time. I won't be able to sustain that with out work so I'm going to have to get back to my sensible eating plans. Thank goodness we are growing our own citrus and have a fresh produce stand 2 blocks away.

Great Work Peeps
I am dowb a pound

We leave for WDW on Wednesday We are spending a week at the Grand I usually always stay at the beach club and or epcot area I have not stayed on the monorail line in a lloooonng time so I am curious to see how I like it again

I can not wait to go!!!!!!!!!!!

I have the pre vacation anxieties I am not the best flier I keep checking the weather as of right now rain and wind! AWESOME I paid 300 bucks to do a change fee to add a day onto our trip when the 4 for 3 deal came out so I would be super annoyed if I got delayed or god forbid canceled..my mom says I am being paranoid and I probably am but I will feel ALOT better when the plane wheels hit the ground in orlando

send pixie dust my way please for a pleasant flight!!!!! I need it

 

[redlight]

I'm at 158, a couple pounds above what I was a few weeks ago, but better than I had feared. It's a lumpy 158, however... I can grab onto fat on my belly and jeans that fit me perfectly a few months ago are tight around my hips.

 

[DisneyLaura]

they, laura! so i'm assuming that pretty lady on your facebook picture is your mom? i saw that but i missed the post on facebook about it. i'm so, so sorry. you will be in my prayers. wish i could give you a real hug!

Yes that's my mom, it was taken in May 2009

Laura --

You don't know me at all, but I'm really sorry to hear of your mother. That must have been (and is still) so hard on you. My best friend has a terminal brain tumor and she has already lived longer than the doctors told her she could expect to. Cancer sucks. Hugs

Thank you

Oh Laura I am so sorry about your mom. I wish I could give you a real hug! You will be in my thoughts and prayers. Losing a parent isn't easy. Trust me I know. I lost both mine so I know what you're going through. I lost my mom when I was 22, 9 months before my wedding. It was the hardest time of my life. You'll pull through if you need to talk just PM me.

Thank you


Hi all, back again. It's so hard trying to stay on track. I need to start my C25K program again. I do actually very good when I'm at work (3 times a week) but then I blow it at home, for lunch that is. I try and do salads at work with grilled chicken in it, and I'm really good with my water still so that's good news for me.

Life without mom is hard but some days are good, some days are not so good. My mom was also only 60 so that's hard too. I miss her terribly.


But on the Disney news we're going in April from the 8th til the 11th and then we are going to see family in Port St Lucie until April 15th (or whatever that thursday is). I'm very excited to go so this year we will be going twice!!!

Gotta get in shape for walking in four months.

Weight wise I'm the same since the last time I posted (Nov 4th) so that's good too. Now I just need to start moving and then that would be better.

 

[dwheatl]

Laura - sending you more hugs for the holiday season. I know it's doubly hard now.

I'm down 1.8. i was so tempted not to weigh in because this week was filled with food-centered events, but i took off some of the huge TG gain anyway.

LMO - Have a great trip!

 

[natale1980]

Laura - I'm so sorry for your loss.

Great numbers everyone! And WooHoo for everyone's Disney Trip getting closer!!!

So today I ate a bunch more then I normally do... but not as bad as I used to. Anyways - by the time I was done with my 'snack' I felt VERY sick! Still not feeling very good. Now I just wonder if it was the cheese quesadilla that got me sick or if I would have been sick anyways.
It was kind of a reminder to me that I should keep up my 30+ days of eating good.... but made me worried that when I get to Disney World in 30 days and eat whatever I want, that I'm going to be sick all the time.

ick - I just want to feel better now!

Good job everyone!
Laura-

Ugh, 2 weeks of school left. It's driving me nuts, I don't feel like I'm even paying attention because I'm so anxious for break! School is so dreary because our teachers do not seem to have fun. They never open the blinds on the windows so it's always dark in the rooms and they don't make anything exciting. I always get up Monday's lately so happy and excited for the week and once I walk into school it's just "Do this, do that, take pictures of this, finish your work, go here, go there." We never get to move around and if I am, it's just running around the school. I don't know how to make it any more fun.

I'm still keeping up with my exercise, which I'm very happy about. But I cannot get this flab off my stomach! That is the hardest part to get rid of though, I've heard so I guess I shouldn't be too upset about it.

Looking forward to some college researching over break and hopefully since there is no school I'll be more up to exercising. I've been really tired lately.
I finished the second week of C25K, but I'm doing it again, last night I got in 1.91 miles so I'm so close to 2! I've been sneaking up more and more every night, but I was running a bit too fast last night and was exhausted when it was over. But I can do 1 minute without a problem now, so I'm very happy. I'm hoping to do a 5K next year, that's my new years resolution!

I think I bruised my rib a few days ago, but it's feeling better now. My mom says she bruises her rib on the time. Does anybody have any tips for posture? I'm trying to sit up in school but some of my classes are so boring I just hunch over and want to fall asleep. I'll sit up straight when I'm paying attention and it doesn't hurt, I just kind of forget and slouch back over.

Have a great day everyone!

I forgot to check in on Friday...I got home from Disney last week on Monday and had a great trip. I was thrilled to not have gained single pound. I'm not sure where I was exactly on Friday, but as of this morning, I'm -5 pounds and I'll try to get back to Friday postings again.

Vacation got me all off track!

Cheers, Deb

Hey Peeps!

I am leaving for the airport in about 2 hours to go to wdw. We originally were going to fly out tomorrow morning but we had the opportunity to pay a small change fee and fly out this evening while the weather here is still nice. Tomorrow is suppose to be a big mess.

I hope we made the right decision. I hate making decisions like this

I hope everyone has a great week!

keep up the great work

 

[redlight]

I've had a couple good days eating-wise. I am going to a couple holiday parties and events in the next few days - will need strength not to overindulge.

Whatever you do, go with a plan. It might be to have one great thing, or one bite of everything that looks good, or go all out, but get right back on plan when you get back. The most important thing is to be prepared.

 

[lovealldisney]

Hi Guys,
Went to WW last night. I was up this week +1.2 Not to make excuses but I didn't do well with counting my points and well the weight gain is proof to me that counting points work.

So back on track until next weigh in.
Have a great day everyone.

 

[natale1980]

I'm only down -0.2 UGGG!!! When is the weight going to start coming off???
The cool thing is that I feel stronger, so I'm happy about that. The week 5 on the C25K is going well.

Keep it up everyone!

Thanks. My plan is to have one plate, and not go back for more, and only one drink.

When is the weight going to start coming off???

Nat, are you seeing other changes?

 

[mousehouselover]

I'm a samer this week..... I go back to work on Monday so I'm hoping it will help me focus again.

 

[brewcrew80]

I am technically a Samer this week. had poker night last night. had a few beers and had a frozen pizza for supper...also ran out of WW meals for lunch, so, got to have real food. it was an enjoyable day.

But, i weighed in on thursday morning after a day of working out and shovelling and i was down 2.5 to 204.5. I was happy. didn't make it last, but, I'll be back.

Gonna work out every day this weekend.

 

[natale1980]

Nat, are you seeing other changes?

I guess I'm seeing other changes, definitely getting stronger and my clothes are fitting better. I would just feel better if the scale reflected my hard work. Really... I guess I'm just whining.

Keep up the great work everyone!
