DISappearing PEEPS Volume 2

[AnnNan]

Way to go, Dawn. That's great!

We pray together when we carpool every morning, and when I pray for all the peeps , and mention your name, he prays for you too.

that is so nice

I'm glad to be back on a more regular basis. My computer "broke down" this week, but it is fixed now. I've been working a lot too but think I'm close to being back on my regular schedule which is much better.

See you around!

Nancy

Well, my mom's party is going on, and I am avoiding it. Unfortunatly I am snacking on pecans, but I haven't eaten to many, maybe 300 calories worth. For dinner I had leftover potatoes from last night, which was probably about 300 calories or so too, so I'm at around 1,600 for the day, give or take. The only thing I know for sure is the 450 calories from the pizza, since that's the only thing I've eaten that's had an exact calorie count posted on it.

Downstairs there is lots of talking about politics going on. Actually it's more of an "I Hate Bush," club, but whatever. They also have the most boring music playing. They should put on one of my CDs, like Enchanted, and then we could all listen to the "Happy Working Song." Who wouldn't like that.

Depending on how long the party goes I may be posting a lot tonight. I have locked myself in the computer room, with the cat, (who my parent's were going to throw out in the garage where it's freezing, since they don't want her around the food, poor baby, but I rescued her, and she's keeping me company,) and a diet coke, and the pecans.

Maybe if you put on the enchanted CD they'll all start cleaning your house!

I do need my bedroom cleaned. I actually cleaned half of it the other day, but there's a few piles of stuff I have to go through. I call it an organized mess. It's not that I'm not clean, it's just that I have too much stuff, and I refuse to get rid of anything.

No worries! I figured since you were 1 lb under your goal, that you must have lost 3 pounds. And by the way, red looks great on you! (I'm referring to the color of your "Goal" ribbon, just in case you couldn't figure that out...)

Two people haven't popped in yet, but here is this week's challenge update so far

I think there has been a tiny mistake somewheres. I have not yet checked in BUT my line is filled in with the result I wish I had.

I haven't read back but I am guessing you inputted Kim's data on my line.

I am 8 lbs over my Valentine goal weight which means I lost 1.5 lbs this week. I thought it was more.

Hey Peeps, I just had to share. I found this picture posted on the WISH events thread. It is a picture of the medal that dd and I got. It never occurred to me to take a picture of it. I still have ALOT to learn to be a good DISer.

I'm up 2.6. I don't know why I've been eating so terribly this week,except that I'm tired, and then there goes my resolve. I have exercised every day this week, and I've written down what I've eaten every day but Thursday. (can you say Whiskey River BBQ burger and fries?) I know in terms of calories I shouldn't be up this much, but I also know that I need to do better with controlling my eating.
Oh, and My b-day is February 25. Is it cheating to get the b-day button at Disneyland when I'm there the week before? We leave 2 weeks from tomorrow (today for anyone east of the Rockies.)

i thought i wouldn't be able to post this until later because i had court this morning, but lo and behold the wireless signal is working and i'm glad because i'm BURSTING with excitement!!!!

well, peeps.....i stepped on the scale this morning and expected to see a loss (maybe a pound) but NEVER expected to see what i saw.....

129 pounds!!!!!!!!!

DO YOU KNOW WHAT THIS MEANS???????

IT MEANS I'VE REACHED MY GOAL OF 130!!!!!!!!!!!!

it took me 11 months to do it, but I DID!!!!! i'm so excited. and i'm SOOOOOOO going out tonight for a margarita!

and i have my peeps to thank for it.......THANK YOU GUYS SOOOOOOOO MUCH FOR BEING THERE FOR ME AND FOR BEING AN INSPIRATION....I WISH I COULD HUG ALL OF YOU FOR REAL!

Wooooo Hooootieeeee! I am so proud of you. We all know th tremendous amount of work and determination it took for you to get to this point. Use some of those tips from your second job to get yourself something nice.

CHRISTI UPDATE----for the new peeps. Christi is a dear friend of mine who was diagnosed with a brain tumor on Oct. 1st. She is talking again so for now the sun is shining on her and her family. It is still very hard, but her little boys have fallen into a routine with the nanny and all is well. They still are geting to visit her a couple times a week. Please continue to lift this family up in prayer.

Every day we're praying for Christi and her family. We had a friend who was given six months and lived for 9 years. We do believe in miracles!

Rebekah will officially start daycare on Monday. It will make out lives a lot easier. Her and Joshua will be at the same place so that means DH can pick them up in the afternoon instead of us dividing up. With that said I will be at Katies swim practice without Rebekah and so now I can WORK OUT FOR AND HOUR several days a week. THis will help me out a lot. I just could not get the baby from the sitter to put her in another daycare while I worked out. So as of Monday I will be walking and starting the couch to 5k. I may even try out a class or two.

Woo hoo for baby-free, guilt-free workout time.

Is it cheating to get the b-day button at Disneyland when I'm there the week before? We leave 2 weeks from tomorrow (today for anyone east of the Rockies.)

absolutely not! ray and i went to WDW last year and arrived on may 6th - our anniversary is april 13th and we still got anniversary buttons. when we set a date for our wedding we didn't consider that the middle of april means spring break crowds at disney world. so we're never gonna get to go on our actual anniversary because i don't do large crowds if i can help it. this year we're arriving april 27th and i'm still gonna get anniversary buttons!

hey, peeps! i have to go get ready for another training shift at longhorn today. maybe i'll lose another couple of pounds from all the walking! i think i may take my pedometer today if i can figure out how to hide it.

i have a question for you guys (especially those of you who go during free dining). if you get free dining, can you use an AP discount at the hotel you're staying at, too? me and my friend erica are thinking about doing a girls' trip in september because my AP expires on 9/22. i would love to have free dining because that means that the only thing i have to pay for is the hotel. but because i have an AP, i may be able to take advantage of an AP discount they offer. do you guys know if you can do both at the same time (free dining + AP discount)?

Nope can;t do them both and you have to buy at least a one day ticket to get the free dining. We did free dining in Sept 06 even tho we had APs. I got a one day ticket for each of us and have just saved them. We used the APs for our park admissions. Our APs expired last July, so when we go next time (6 weeks from today ) we are using our 1 day tickets and then upgrading them to new annual passes for this year!

No! I got mine last year the day before and wore it my whole trip, even though only one day was actually my birthday.

What she said. You can't get free dining and a room discount. Depending on where you stay, either deal could be better savings. For me, I always stay at a value resort, so the discount I could have gotten last year, (I think it would of saved $16 a night,) was not as good as free dining for two people, (we got about $100 worth of food every day.) Now if we had stayed at the GF or something, a room discount may have been better.

My son, KinkyKittyKat gained a pound.


IF YOU DID CHECK IN AND YOU ARE ON THIS LIST, PLEASE PM ME SO I CAN MAKE MY SPREAD SHEET ACCURATE.

IF YOU WEIGH ON A DIFFERENT DAY,PLEASE STILL CHECK IN AGAIN ON FRIDAY WITH THAT WEIGHT. I don't always catch it if it's posted on a different day.

 

[Pakey]

Danielle, we may be at DL at the same time as you. We are supposed to go down and spend a day with DS and DDIL and go eat at Club 33 at DL. That's one of the time frames we are looking at (it depends on when DDIL can get us into Club 33). It would be way cool to do a left coast dismeet.

And wear that birthday button with pride.

Dawn, we don't get to WDW until May 18 so we'll miss you by almost 2 weeks. Now that you've reached your goal weight after so much hard work, are you going to try to be good while you are there? I have my ADR's so I already know how bad I'm going to be. But I've got to work on that bathing suit body until then. I'm old. The last time I wore a bathing suit, the Beatles were still together.

I've started my trip report. If you guys check out the first installment, you can see what I'm looking like these days. This was the first time in years where I was okay with the way I look in photos (well, except for the hair thing which now reminds everyone of Kramer from Seinfeld). And Wendy, you are mentioned in my TR also.

I hope everyone has a GREAT day. I know I'm going to try.
