DISappearing PEEPS Volume 2

[my2boysrtwicethefun]

2boystwicethefun...are you sure about that screen name Your poor DS, I hope he is feeling better. I can't imagine how bad that must have hurt Were they his baby teeth?

My screen name pretty much sums up my life. Very exciting. Yes, it was his baby teeth. He has an appointment with his ped. dentist this Thursday. Ironically, he was at the dentist for a six month checkup the day prior to the incident and was given praise by his dentist for having such excellent teeth.

thanks for all your words of wisdom and good thoughts! i'll mention it to my gyno on friday and see what she says and let you guys know.

Okay Punkin.... I figured it out. OVULATION! It seems like the timing could be a bit early, but not out of the realm of possible. I actually have more pain during ovulation than during my actual period. Usually two Advil takes care of it (it only usually lasts a few hours).

OR maybe not.... if you are on the pill do you still produce an egg?? I haven't been on the pill in SOOO long, I can't remember. Anyhow, that is my take on it.....................P

i thought about the ovulation thing, but because i'm on birth control i don't release an egg (i have eggs....they're just released from my ovaries). does anyone know if your body still goes through the motions of ovulation even if you don't release an actual egg? my boss told me she thinks it does.

i've taken 3 ibuprofen to see if that helps and so far it's still hurting, but that was only like 15 minutes ago. it feels better when i stretch it out. who knows??? could just be a sore muscle or something. i AM getting older!

by the way, peeps, for those of you who haven't joined my pre-TR and are really bored, the link's in my siggie!!! yes, shameless plug. but i need some more peepage over there. plus i just posted a pictuer of me imitating ray and it's pretty funny. i'm a goof.

Punkin - Ask your doc on Friday. He/She should have an idea what it could be. I'm in your neck of the woods. Let me just say that they should not be moving a WIDE LOAD on 285 at 1:00 in the afternoon. It caused a major tie up in the traffic. I now remember why I moved to AL. Keep us posted on what the doc says.

Happy Belated Birthday Nancy!

Hi everyone else!

 

[dwheatl]

Thanks to all who offered condolences. My dad actually passed away 5 years ago, but our family does not move too fast sometimes. I still miss Dad terribly, but the heartache is not as sharp as it was 5 years ago.

warning: female issues below. if you're of the male persuasion you might want to skip this one!

i have an appointment on friday with my gyno for my annual exam. it's just a coincidence that this is happening the week i have an appointment anyway.

All I have to say is, if the pain becomes acute or if you develop a fever, go to the doctor right away, don't wait for Friday. And, I thought this was a good time to post this warning again:
Antibiotics can reduce the effectiveness of birth control pills! My friend's twin grandchildren are the product of birth control pills + antibiotics=double ovulation. They are darling children and clearly were meant to be, but still, if the time is not right to have a baby, this is important to know.

I think I missed Twinkie's birthday as well as Nancy's, so:

Sorry this is late.

It was a fun St. Patrick's Day. Among other things, we had "leprechaun burgers." 2 Nilla wafers, a chocolate coin, red and yellow frosting for ketchup and mustard, and green coconut for the lettuce. Unfortunately, they were yummy. I had 2. The kids had a great time, though. It was worth the sacrifice.

Tell me, I made her ADR's with a 2 week notice, get her ressie's at the coolest places, she even lucks out at Tony's and get's a table while they dine to watch the parade and then Wishes.

That would never happen for me.

That is always the way isn't it?

I had a tough lunch today - we had a staff meeting and they provided food. I took just a little cole slaw, a little potato salad, half a ham sandwich and 2 small cookies. And I stuck to diet soda too. I'm just going to have fruit for my afternoon snack instead of my "junk food" 100 cal pack. I hope I didn't do too much damage - at least I had less than I wanted to eat and would have otherwise taken. I just might do a half hour on the treadmill plus some upper body work tonight instead of just one to help things out.

You certainly could have done much worse. Add in the extra exercise and you should be good to go

Although last night I did shove down a whole box of thin mints while he was in the shower. You gotta eat fast to accomplish it but I did it with gusto. I think I was catching the cookies in mid-air because I didn't have enough time to move my hands from box to mouth. So I'm not sure the plating concept is going to work unless he removes those cookies from the house. Well the good news is that they'll be gone pretty soon. Thank goodness they only sell them once a year.

This made for a great mental picture!

Thanks for the birthday wishes! No big deal, Melinda, I was out of town anyway. I went with my mom and dad to Tyler, TX, to meet my brother and his family to celebrate. We went bowling, to the zoo, drove the azalea trail (too early, no azaleas!), went to the arts and crafts festival, went swimming, and watched a movie! How's that sound for a busy, fun birthday!? It really was fun. It was a short trip, but at least I got to celebrate with them.

Wishing everyone a good exercise week!

I'm finally over being sick so I'm hoping to really be back on track with my exercise.

I am glad you had such a fun b-day and that you are back to feeling good again.

Poor guy! Thankfully it wasn't his permanent teeth. So with 2 boys as well, I guess this is the kind of fun my future holds...?

That was very noble of you

Why on the night I stay up past 1am working on my paper, my girls both wake up a little after 2 and tag team each other with a puking marathon?

Mal is still actively puking. The baby and daddy are in bed. We were up all night. I think Tim got some naps here and there, I still haven't figured out how to close my eyes and instantly fall asleep.

I cancelled daycare, duh! Maybe I'll get a nap in later. Do you think I can make it through the day on 45 minutes of sleep? I believe that's what I got before the marathon.

oh the horror! I hate eau du puke!

[MA pigletfan]

Laura, you and I are the only 2 going in the wrong direction. I'm glad I'm not alone but we've got to do something about it. I don't want for us to be the first two kicked out of the peep gang.

I said no to cookies and choc covered pretzels last night even though they were calling my name in the worst way. I am so proud of myself

After moving the tv and setting up the dvd player (it works now), I did the upper body segment and the sexy slim down segment from my new dvd. I don't remember the name but basically it has 5 10min segments - there is cardio, slim down, abs, upper body and lower body. I didn't really care for the slim down segment, basically it was just some funky dance moves - it got my heart rate up but I didn't really enjoy it. The upper body segment was nice, you use a tension band (those long rubber ribbon thingies) and the 10 min goes fast. I don't really feel too sore today so I wonder if I did it right, although I think I can feel some muscles in my back. Then I did a half hour on the treadmill. The treadie is much more fun with a good book - I'm so glad I started going to the library again.

Tonight I think I'll try the lower body and abs segments - just not sure if I should do them before or after I walk on the treadmill. Any suggestions?

I'm thinking my plan will be to alternate upper and lower body so the same group doesn't get worked on 2 days in a row and I guess alternate abs the same way. Do I even have abs hiding under all that flab?

*tiptoeing in quietly*...hello? Anybody here? Can I come back to be a peep again?
I don't know if anyone will remember me.....but I'm ready to stop lurking and start posting. I have been reading every day all of the peep adventures, and I want to come back! Is there room for one more ? I'm doing pretty good on the weight loss thing, I seem to have discovered that the key for me is diet alone does not work. I've been doing the Callentics DVD's and feel almost addicted to the workout. Very strange for a chocolate loving, deskchair-potato . But watching all the pounds lost on here lets me know that I'm not in this battle alone. Can I come back?

 

[DisneyGalUK]

Majic - Welcome back

LMO - Congratulations!! That is so cool!

Dawn - Im going to ready your pre-trippy right now. Yes, now!

Annan - Happy Belated Birthday!

Of course you can come back!!! Welcome!!!

I have found that I can't lose weight without exercise either. Maybe it is something with kickstarting metabolism.

 

[punkin413]

hey, peeps! i've seen LOTS of encouraging comments lately about your eating habits and exercise and i'm ready to get back into the swing of things!!! i've maintained since i've been so busy with work (no time for exercise) but i haven't done ANYTHING in like a month to firm this jiggly stuff! so thank you for encouraging me to get back to it!!!!

I'm in your neck of the woods. Let me just say that they should not be moving a WIDE LOAD on 285 at 1:00 in the afternoon. It caused a major tie up in the traffic. I now remember why I moved to AL.

i HATE atlanta traffic! it's enough to make someone move....that's for sure!

Why on the night I stay up past 1am working on my paper, my girls both wake up a little after 2 and tag team each other with a puking marathon?

that sounds awful! i hope your day has gotten better since.

Hi Peeps,

Quick TV question, a little off topic! Did any of you watch Dirty Sexy Money? It starts here on Friday night and Im thinking of watching it - I Donald Sutherland! Just wondered if it was any good!

 

[DisneyLaura]

I completely forgot to report my work out results with the crazy Kettlebell i bought....OUCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
My hamstrings are still super super sore, and i worked out Saturday afternoon with the thing! I guess thats a good thing, but my goodness..its a killer workout! i think i really need to do it at least 2 times a week to get my body used to it..i thought i would be more sore in the arms..but they say to push the weight down through glutes and hamstrings so i guess i was doing the moves correctly...but MAN i think i am walking rather funny still today!

Like my DH says - if it didn't hurt you didn't work hard enough.

Laura, you and I are the only 2 going in the wrong direction. I'm glad I'm not alone but we've got to do something about it. I don't want for us to be the first two kicked out of the peep gang.

I told my husband last night that starting today, he has to make my plates up for me. I'm fine at lunch because I do a lean cuisine but at dinner, I take bigger helpings. So he's going to start doing my plates.

Although last night I did shove down a whole box of thin mints while he was in the shower. You gotta eat fast to accomplish it but I did it with gusto. I think I was catching the cookies in mid-air because I didn't have enough time to move my hands from box to mouth. So I'm not sure the plating concept is going to work unless he removes those cookies from the house. Well the good news is that they'll be gone pretty soon. Thank goodness they only sell them once a year.

I hear ya Pakey. I did go to my WW meeting today and lost a little weight. I will wait until Friday to post but at least I'm going in the right direction now. I refuse to be fat when we go to Disney next year. I have to lose weight for Disney and that's it. I have a goal set for me to lose at least 80 lb by the end of this year but taking only 10 lb at a time. And then I have another whole 11 months to lose more (we go in Nov 2009). We can do it. I find eating the WW or Lean Cuisine dinners help with me. I do them for dinner because that's when I usually go over board too. I think I might have my DH make my plate too, that's a good idea. So sorry about the cookies but it made me laugh.

by the way, peeps, for those of you who haven't joined my pre-TR and are really bored, the link's in my siggie!!! yes, shameless plug. but i need some more peepage over there. plus i just posted a pictuer of me imitating ray and it's pretty funny. i'm a goof.

I did see the picture but had to run out of the house and pick up the boys from the bus so I didn't post a response. Too cute. I love his ticket. What's with guys and they don't get excited about those type of things like we do.

Thanks to all who offered condolences. My dad actually passed away 5 years ago, but our family does not move too fast sometimes. I still miss Dad terribly, but the heartache is not as sharp as it was 5 years ago.

I hear ya, my dad passed away 8 years ago and it still hurts not as bad but it's there.

It was a fun St. Patrick's Day. Among other things, we had "leprechaun burgers." 2 Nilla wafers, a chocolate coin, red and yellow frosting for ketchup and mustard, and green coconut for the lettuce. Unfortunately, they were yummy. I had 2. The kids had a great time, though. It was worth the sacrifice.

Those sound really cute. Someone made those for a picnic we went to for the 4th. I didn't eat them because I don't like coconut but they are sure cute.

Why on the night I stay up past 1am working on my paper, my girls both wake up a little after 2 and tag team each other with a puking marathon?

Mal is still actively puking. The baby and daddy are in bed. We were up all night. I think Tim got some naps here and there, I still haven't figured out how to close my eyes and instantly fall asleep.

oh the horror! I hate eau du puke!

So sorry Monica. Daddy's always go to sleep in the matter of seconds after their heads hit the pillow The other night I brought Elizabeth to the ER because she was wheezing really bad and she was breathing very labored and I got scared so I took her to the ER while DH stayed home with the boys. Well let's just say mommy only got 5 hours sleep. She's ok. Just a cold as they say. They can't confirm it's asthma because it's the first episode she has had. Kiss the girls for me but with a mask on.

Morning Peeps!!!!

Crazy morning!!!! I won a PODCAST CRUISE and the overall photo in the dis photo contest!!!!! I still cant get over it!!!!! I'm so excited!!!!

Hey Peeps!

I am PMSing big time!!! Today has been a struggle to eat good when I basically have been thinking about food all day. Yesterday I had a battle with steamed veggie dumplings, general tso chicken, wonton soup and an egg..they all won!!!!! I will be happy if this week I am a samer!!!

My new thing is NOT kicking myself when I eat bad, I feel this way it does not lead into a full fledge binge. Whatever I ate some chinese food, it was good!..this morning I just woke up, worked out and looked forward

Welcome back!

We're watching AI now (DD is addicted, I'm just along for the ride). We all think David Archelauta(sp.?) is about as cute and talented as he could be.
