DISappearing PEEPS Volume 2

[MA pigletfan]

Can you post the receipe?

sure thing!
Pineapple salsa:

I am very anti-measuring on this one because it really is to taste..
One can of pineapple chunks, drained of most juice-cut small
between a 1/2-1 TBS jalepeno peppers ( i use the pre sliced)..minced finely
about a TBS of cilantro leaves (chopped)
a dash of salt and pepper..
thats it! super easy..its very good on chicken and fish, and now that i think of it it would probably be good on some sort of lean red meat fajita as well

Off to watch AI results show!

 

[Disneyfreak92]

to my fellow AI peeps - did you guys see david cook tonight? that was AWESOME! DH is gonna get it off itunes tomorrow. we both loved it! even if for some odd reason he doesn't make it as an entertainer (which i totally think he will), that guy is gonna make a great music producer!!!

Yes! He is my favorite! I just keep saying every week, "Just give it to him now!" I just LOVE him - he's great!

Edited... I don't think we are going to make the Illuminations Dinner after all. We are basically saving all of our bang for the buck for V&As, and decided against the $120...

Our May trip only has two real plans so far, 5/19 of Biergarten, and 5/21 of Victoria&Alberts for our anniversary dinner. We will be at CSR on May 17, and BCV from 18-23.

Lynda~ The Illuminations dinner is on 5/19. I've been on the phone with GG twice in two days and I've forgotten to ask if there were still seats available. I see a few spots were our schedules overlap. If you can't make it for the dinner, we can try to get together some other time.

5/17- arrive in Orlando, probably after 9pm....no WDW

5/18- AK; lunch @ Flame Tree, Safari Celebration dinner

5/19- DHS; lunch open, International Dinner in Epcot (I'm thinking we'll get to tha park late in the afternoon)

5/20- Epcot; lunch @ Garden Grill, dinner at LC

5/21- DD's 14th B-day! MK; CRT breakfast, lunch open, O'Hana dinner, & party!

5/22- Free day; breakfast @ MC then water park; dinner @ Boma; DTD to finish the night

5/23- MK or DHS; breakfast @ Kona Cali Grill for dinner. This may be our only chance to see Fantasmic so we may wind up in DHS.

5/24- check out, finish shopping, maybe GF photo pkg.

That's our vacation in a nut shell.

Hi Ladies - I mentioned my May solo trip awhile ago but not sure if I mentioned the dates. I'm arriving Thursday May 15 and checking out on Sunday the 18th. Short but sweet. Thursday and Friday will probably be me alone and Saturday I will probably be hanging out with an Orlando friend (possibly in the parks/possibly not). I haven't made up a plan yet as to what I want to do since it is just me. I know for sure I want to hit Epcot, MK and maybe AK since I always skip it or cut trip shorts on our other disney vacations.

Hope everyone has been having a good day!

We'll have to see if we can come up with something. I'm going to try to fill in my PassPorter tonight, and I need to call tomorrow to try to book the manis/pedis and maybe a GF photo session. I'll see if I can come up with anything. And Noni, if you find out about the Illuminations thing, let me know.

 

[HockeyKat]

Okay, y'all, I posted this in the other thread, and I will put myself out there here as well. Be gentle!

Here is as close as I can get to before/current. Before was probably about 200-205 (about 10-15 down from my highest), and current is 172. I am 5'8".

WOOO HOOOOO! Another peep headed to the home planet! It's going to be so much fun meeting everyone.

i knew it would happen....
as it always has before when i actually obey a healthy HIGH FIBER eating plan for more than 1 day...I got a big ole case of the "FIBERS" today...i do not need to go into details, as i am sure that many of you know EXACTLY what i am talking about..lets just say I thought i was having an appendicitis attack, but i was WAY wrong.
So just a word of caution before you OD on fiber like i think i have been for the last few days..although i have a better chance of seeing a really pretty number on friday...

I have to eat 2-3 days of high fiber foods before I get any result........ dang sluggish digestive tract....... It does help for nice numbers at the end of the week because it all comes off at once.

We'll have to see if we can come up with something. I'm going to try to fill in my PassPorter tonight, and I need to call tomorrow to try to book the manis/pedis and maybe a GF photo session. I'll see if I can come up with anything. And Noni, if you find out about the Illuminations thing, let me know.

We'll definately figure out something so we can all meet up. I'll try to call GG tomorrow and ask if there are still openings.

So I was doing really, really good and staying on plan. That was until I went to work and we had Boston Market catered for us by a rep today....... I love certain items from there...... especially the sweet potato casserole. I had two helpings...... I was able to do a small portion of everything else and even skipped dessert but ooooh those sweet potatoes......

In non-diet news........ I got Dh to let me book for free dining in Sept!!!! I'm so excited! He's leaving the $$ planning to me so I have to make sure I can pull it off or he'll want to cancel.

 

[mousehouselover]

Kat~ You look FANTASTIC!!!!!! WTG on the progress!! You're smokin' hot!

 

[dwheatl]

I went back to the doctor today. I have an ear infection. I am now on antibiotics. I called the advice nurse from the playground while I had the kids out for recess. She said, "Boy, it's loud out there." I wanted to say, "Really, I wouldn't know because I CAN'T HEAR!" They had me on hold and I had to call back 3 times before I got an appt., just so they could look in my ear and confirm what I already knew. Sheesh!

Have a great day, I have a test tonight, so please keep your fingers crossed, or toss some pixie dust my way!

Brrrring! that's the magical sound of pixie dust. That's the sound it makes when you enter DL.

I'm totally loving that Costco Mango Salsa on everything! (instead of high sugar ketchup).

Someone brought it to the potluck I went to a couple of weeks ago, and i was eating it on celery. Not bad!

Here is as close as I can get to before/current. Before was probably about 200-205 (about 10-15 down from my highest), and current is 172. I am 5'8".

Gorgeous! Look how narrow your hips are!

At least sweet potatoes are not empty calories. If you think of food as fuel, they are Premium. So don't feel too bad. That's a pretty good splurge.

So, the worst part of my appt. today was, I had to weigh on the "big" scale, and there was some guy standing there, just staring. I was up 2 lbs. from Monday (different clothes etc) and i told the nurse, "I had a lot of water today!" I was also tempted to mention that I had not had anything close to a "case of the fibers" (God help me, that made me giggle) because I have had so little physical activity this week. So, I guess I better get on the water/fiber bandwagon, or Friday will not be pretty for me.

WOW!!!!!!!!!! You look Amazing!

 

[Beka]

I'm feeling much better today! Dropped 4lbs as of yesterday am, but I'm sure that'll change by tomorrow as I start getting real food in again. Thanks for the well wishes & pixie dust!

Eggs again.

Adding diced ham and/or veggies helps.

Does anyone else HATE the smell of PAM cooking spray? I swear it gags me!



Beka!!! Congratulations!

Thanks! I go for a 4D on 5/3, so I'll be sure to share pics.

I love to put mango salsa on pork, it's too yummy!

Well, now no body can say you're full of... lol! Gotta ease into the fiber! Or, if you want to stop yourself up a bit, take an iron supplement.

Well Eventer told me about this group. My weight is 165. My goal is 130. Anything else you need to know or that I need to know?

Welcome!

Someone's lookin' mighty skinny!

Weird, my grocery bill is a lot less minus the diet soda pop!

Isn't it nice to save money

Kat - you look fabulous. It's so nice to see a face with a post now.

Beka - I remember those iron supplements very well. I had to take them with every pregnany.

Morning Peeps!

HockeyKat ~ may I just say that you look Mahhvvvelous!

 

[aries1980]

Morning Peeps!!


Kat you Looking great! Skinny Minnie You!

 

[DisneyLaura]

Aries1980 - Can you tell me how you got that picture on your ticker? Thanks.

 

[majicintheair]

HOCKEYKAT: Whoa girl! You are lookin' good!
That really makes it hit home for me, when I see it in pictures, or try on clothes that are suddenly to big! (much better than feeling the clothes get tighter...that is very depressing)

 

[pooh'smate]

Thanks for the welcome. I went for a 45 min walk yesterday pulling my 2 year old in her wagon around our neighborhood last night. It was so nice here in the 70's. I am so looking forward to spring.

Never mind I figured it out.

In about 1/2 hour I take DD(14) for an MRI. The orthopedist is fairly ertain she has a torn meniscus and will need surgery! We have another appointment with him tomorrow a.m. to go over the MRI and determine whether the surgery is a go. DD just wants to get back to the track team and is very upset that she is very likely out for the whole season. Her knee locked up while running at track practice the day before their first meet (last week). She didn't trip or anything, it just stopped working. Our school district is lucky to have the best track in the entire state. The HS State track meets are always held here, because we have the best conditions. The doctor asked if she tripped on the track surface or anything like that and about what type of surface she was running on. When he heard where she was running, he said well there is no safer surface to run on than that track.

Good Morning Sunshines!!!!!

Since Fridays are totally cursed, I'm going to take a huge chance and tell you that it's now at-15.0 pounds lost since the 6th!!!!

Tomorrow, we'll see.

To re-cap, here's what I'm doing that I would call "different" than what I did prior to the 6th.

1. Getting along with DH. After a year of marriage counseling and some recent great help with that, we're totally putting each other first. Very lovey dovey. It's funny how the weight is coming off as a result of being truly HAPPY.

2. Off the hooch! (Hooch=diet Pepsi for you newbs) Ok, I don't mean "Off" but I DO have ONE single can of diet Pepsi Max in the AM to get my motor going. As opposed to three 64 ounce Big Gulps per day!!!!

3. ONE meal each day is a protein shake mixed with water (as per the instructions) but I double it!!!! So it's 50 grams of protein (vanilla snot!) with 12 oz. COOOOLD water. I bought theTwin Labs one for the low sugar, it's not too bad, I guess.

OMG! UM..that is amazing!!! keep up the awesome work!

You look GREAT Kat!!! I hope one day to see results as obvious as yours! Way to go!!

It was about 2 days into being very vigilent with WW that this "event" occured..i hope my numbers look good...i still feel puffy though so who knows?

hahahah ...glad to know that everyone knew right away what " the fibers" was lol!! perhaps you will come down with fibers tonight? It would be good timing for Weigh in..lol!

Well, now no body can say you're full of... lol! Gotta ease into the fiber! Or, if you want to stop yourself up a bit, take an iron supplement.

HA!
