DISappearing PEEPS Volume 2

[MA pigletfan]

I am behind on my DVR shows..i was just watching dancing with the stars! Does anyone else find it annoying when they couples do those cheesy things and actout things..Like lip synch "call" and then they pretend the are dialing an imaginery phone or when they act out they are surprised to see each other or the will annouce a couple and then one pops up from the bottom of the screen and the other dancer looks "surprised" to see them..its so cheesy and unneccesary lol...i dont know why all the hate but it really annoys me...

HAHAHAHH ...i TOTALLY agree..i can't stand it on AI when the contestants make the number to call them with there fingers either and mime it...so cheeseballish! and not the delicious orange kind either...

HEy there wondering if anyone remembers me???? Hope you all are well and I would like to join in again.

nice to "see" you again Fidge! I rememeber you! I am sorry about the rough times

All the Biggest winner workouts are tough...but Max Back is the toughest i think!!!

Even the names of these workouts are making me sweat!! jillian is one tough lady!

Ok..where is she..where is our Thread Mama!?? Oh Wendy.......

God has been keeping life busy and sadly I turned to food and giving up on my health.

We almost lost DH after a rough Christmas and thnkafully had a terrific heart surgeon and a huge angel!

My DDad passed away on April 2nd we were due to be in WDW that day too so glad I had taken the time off. He toook me the first year it opened on 1971 and was the greatest man I have ever known and was very annoyed by the lack of effort I gave to my health and weight so tomorow will be a month and I have made a commitment to honor him with getting back to doing the right thing.

Glad you all are still here!

I don't think I was around when you were here before but welcome back. So sorry to hear about the tough months that you just had.

Yes where is that Mama of ours, we are actually missing alot of peeps.

PEEPS WHERE ARE YOU

FIDGEY!!!!!! Welcome Home!

So sorry for your loss and near loss, sweetie!

Hard times do that to me too. We missed you girlfriend!!! Glad to see you back.

Weigh yourself tomorrow (just like we used to) and either use that as a starting over place or post your + or - . Whatever you want is just fine.

So much has changed yet there's a ton of us still hanging in there. EVERYONE is nice as can be so you're among friends.

 

[the Fidge]

Thank you all so much!

UM- I will have a new starting point tomorow I am terrifed to step on the scale but have been sadly thankful for my sweatpants, no zippers to worry about!

SO glad to see you all have been very busy in my absence and have been doing great! Hope to be a part of the losing peeps!

OK off to get dinner together!!

I cannot tell you how warm your welcomes feel!

Ok I know I have saw this posted before but I just discovered those 100 calorie snack packs. I had so far this week, chocolate animal crackers, chocolate covered preztels, miny striped cookies and peanut butter nutter butter cookies. Granted there is no peanut butter in between two cookies but they are good and for those us of that are doing WW only 2 points per pack. I ate the preztels today (a friend of mine got a box and shared with me) and I actually felt like I was cheating. Need to go to the store and get those for when AF comes around.

Fidge, welcome back!! Sorry it has been rough for you lately.


I have been a bit MIA lately... work is literally kicking my butt. However, good part of it is being too busy to eat!! I am hoping for pretty numbers tomorrow but who knows. I am mostly just hoping that I don't get woken up by work at 3AM (which is alltogether possible).

I have therefore been only skimming, please forgive me if I haven't commented much.


One good thing though... I have reached the point in my weight loss efforts where people are really commenting, and not just have you lost weight, more like, wow you are looking really thin. I am also .5 off a healthy BMI for the first time in many years, and my scale is no longer blinking nearly as much meanness at me as it used to. Plus, I really feel *good* for the first time in a long time. Like this is actually getting me somewhere.

I am glad that I have these feelings this week, because seriously otherwise work might make me jump off the balcony.

Kat.... sorry to hear that work is crazy. But I'm glad to hear that aren't stress eating to deal with it. You would only wind up feeling busy and stressed (still) AND angry with yourself. I suppose the pick-up hockey games are on the back burner for now.

I have been a bad girl this week as far as exercise goes. I only did true exercise one day. But I stayed busy and active around the house, so hopefully the scale will be kind.

Come back and chat when you have time!.........................P

Nope!! I am still making it to hockey. I pre-paid so I am NOT skipping! I have a women's reffed/scored game on Mondays from 7:45-9:05, and a clinic/pickup on Thursdays from 8:30-10:35. Plus I did make it to the gym for about a 45 min workout yesterday. I NEED exercise time when I am stressed or it is so much worse. I have literally had to drop off some of these problem calls and dial back in when I get back, but my boss is great and has been helping me at least keep that part of my life on track.

I will hopefully be around more this weekend and next week. And only 2 weeks to a WDW trip!!!

Hi Fidge! We've missed you! So sorry to hear about your rough times. I'm glad you are back. You know there's lots of support here. Welcome back!

Don't you just LOVE that? I have been getting lots of "skinny" comments lately - which I am NOT! But regardless, I do feel great about where I am at. I don't know exactly how much more I want to lose, but I'm pretty certain I'm over half way there, and I feel like I'm in the "home stretch". I have also started to feel good about how I look and feel. So I know where you're coming from.

And I'm sorry work has been so crazy for you lately.

 

[UtahMama]

The problem with those 100 calorie packs is I can eat like 6 packets.

My kids do the same thing with fruit snacks and granola bars.

Good Luck Kids on weigh-day!!!!!


Last chance to drink you water!!!!!!!

NOTHING salty tonight so you don't retain! (see how I am?)

 

[pixie dust 112]

Fidge! Welcome back! So sorry about the tough times you've been having lately. SO happy to have you back in the fold!

Fidgey! So glad to see you. Sorry about the tough times. Glad your DH had a great dr.

Could it be the port wine one rolled in nuts?

I just bought some 100 cal chocolate cinnamon crisps. I haven't tried them yet, but I'm looking forward to them.

Hang in there kiddo. We are all so proud of you.

Today was a great day after so many hard ones. I played hookey to go to a May Day festival and luncheon at DD's school. The weather was beautiful, and it was lovely to see all of these young women dressed up in their spring dresses, carrying flowers for Mary (It's a Catholic all-girls' school). It both took me back to my youth, and gave me a chance to lavish some attention on DD before she heads off to college in the fall. After lunch, I went to my friend's house (the one who just lost her husband), and we sat and talked until DD called me to pick her up. Then she and I went out for frozen yogurt. I also fit in a workout and watched the most recent episode of The Tudors (this one was heart-wrenching ). It's amazing how much you can fit into a day when you're not spending 10-11 hours at work.

WoW!! I am stunned! I am down -3.4 from last Friday! I have lost all of the
weight I gained in WDW and then some! I am so excited! I was so afraid that I would lose of all my momentum after the trip, but apparently not! Hopefully I am starting the Peep weigh-in day off on a good note and many of you will continue to post good numbers!.......................P

 

[pixie dust 112]

We missed seeing you but we're thinking about you. Keep up the good work.

You are absolitely right. I did eat two snacks right after each other but I had the points to do it and my kids can chomp down fruit snacks like their going out of style.

I just bought some 100 cal chocolate cinnamon crisps. I haven't tried them yet, but I'm looking forward to them.

You'll have to let me know how you like those because I love the chocolate covered pretzels.

That sounded like a lovely day. The festival must have been beautiful. I know my boys walked in an Eucharist (? spelling) procession and I cried it was so beautiful.

Gina - Yes they have chocolate covered preztels in the snack packs. I actually did not find them, my friend did and they are good. She said they were at Shop Rite. I bought mine at Walmart but I can't wait to go to Shop Rite this weekend and get those.
