In search of my body...not the one I ate! Part Deux... We sit at the popular table!

I know there are some of you who already know But I lost another 2.2 pounds. For a total of 22.8!:banana:
Going to be off for a while I think I am getting that storm Kat had last night!!!


WAY TO GO I will add :banana: :banana: :banana: 2 dancing bananas to your one. Keep up the great job. :thumbsup2 Boy those banana's can make your head spin if you look at them to long.
 
"I always tell my kids, it's not my job to be your friend. It's my job to turn you into a person that I would WANT as a friend when you grow up. "

Nancy - this is perfect and I'm gonna steal it. K. oh and, ewwww, that's another one of those for better or worse deals, huh.

Jodi - I get tired just thinking about getting that house ready to show.

EriKa - I'd love to know whats in the pocket of your Donald Duck windbreaker.
 
Erika, you and your brother are cute and I love the pants. Did you notice the guy in the yellow jacket picking his nose? Hope he did shake eeore's hoof after that. Yuck. :goodvibes

Ok, now I have to leave not getting anything done.

Steph - Whoo Hoo!!!!! Awesome job!!!!! Who's the goddess now????
:cool1: :worship: :cool1: :worship: :cool1: :worship:



:worship: :worship: :worship:



Jodi - totally understand. I am not a high maintenance friend. The few good friends I have, we don't talk daily, weekly or sometimes even monthly. When we get together, we catch up right where we left off and it's not high pressure. That's what this is for me. Another, low pressure friendship. I can't meet for lunch every week, or spend the evening on the phone, and none of that is required here. Just show up when you have a minute and have a good time. Course I find, the more I'm here, the more fun I have.



EriKa - this is by far my favorite. I'm gonna make it my avatar.;)

Truly, you are so beautiful. I'm glad you posted those pics. Espically the "before" one. I tend to think of you as wonder woman, and I forget where you came from. It gives a person incentive, for sure.




Liz - agree.



Kat - I just realized this too!

Sorry about the ankle. Man that smarts just thinking about it.

Stacey - Welcome home, I think. Sounds like your still busy as ever. And aren't you moving too. Take your time. We'll be here.

Vicki - did you get to AIM last night? I wanted to log on, but I was doing the responsible thing and going to sleep, cause I knew if I got on, you gals would keep me talking till 1 am.

It is a BEAUTIFUL day here in Ohio. We are going for a walk. (My good decision for the day
Goof.)

Enjoy your walk.... every little step helps right.... :goodvibes

Thanks you guys! I knew you would all be very positive! :goodvibes

And Paula...yes, I am trying to focus on the positives. I basically look at it this way...I am just "fine tuning" or "tweaking" my body at this point. I am not really upset about any of it, if that makes sense. Sure, I have 10 pounds to lose, but at this point, no one would look at me and think I am a chub.

Nope... no chub thoughts with you... you can always threaten those greenies with your work out regimen if they think otehrwise... you would so kick my butt by boxing me into a corner followed by a marathon run to the ocean and a butt busting bikeride home....:rotfl2:

Just back from "step-up day" and I hit the lottery! All 3 kids got awesome placements...the teachers I wanted for each of them plus really good kids in their classes. So...all is good. Now I have to turn around and go back to the school in half an hour to pick them up and officially start summer vacation! We are kicking it off with a little Kung Fu Panda! :goodvibes

Everbody was Kung Fu fighting.... sorry - couldn't help myself since I start singing that song when I hear about the movie... I thought I would share my torture with everyone...

Goof...
 

Jodi, you need to stop hiding!!

Stacey, welcome back. Hope you got caught up on some sleep today!

Nancy, you get a free pass. :)

Erika, glad that you won the teacher/class lottery!!

Paula, meh. Now I have that song in my head!!

I did manage to make it through 45 min on the arc trainer after all. Ankle hurts a little but isn't too bad.
 
"I always tell my kids, it's not my job to be your friend. It's my job to turn you into a person that I would WANT as a friend when you grow up. "

Nancy - this is perfect and I'm gonna steal it. K.

It's a saying that has come in handy on more than one occasion..teenagers are the reason for the economy size wine-in-a-box and Ms. Clairol haircoloring! :laughing:

oh and, ewwww, that's another one of those for better or worse deals, huh.

Most definitely. Not an adventure that I really enjoyed. :crazy2:


Erika, you and your brother are cute and I love the pants. Did you notice the guy in the yellow jacket picking his nose? Hope he did shake eeore's hoof after that. Yuck. :goodvibes

OK - I missed that guy...gonna have to go back and look at it again. :rolleyes1 (why is it I feel compelled to see a 30 year old photo of some random guy with his finger in his nose???? :confused3 I must be sick. Definitely not because I don't have enough to do with my time...:laughing:

Nancy, you get a free pass. :)
Thanks Kat- need that free pass every now and then! :goodvibes


SO - this is an indication of how my day has been...I rushed in from working in the yard, showered and raced out the door to get my hair cut. Only to get there and find out that my appointment wasn't at 2:00 like I thought - it's at 5:00. :headache: That's what I get for not double checking! Oh well - at least I was EARLY and not LATE. I'd have been very ticked if I had missed it...:blush:
 
Jodi - I didn't see it and Nancy - I had to go back and look too.

Paula - thanks a bunch. I hadn't even gone there in my head. Grrrr.

"I always tell my kids, it's not my job to be your friend. It's my job to turn you into a person that I would WANT as a friend when you grow up. "

Nancy - this is perfect and I'm gonna steal it.

I totally thought the same thing as soon as I read that, Nancy! I love it and am going to use it.

And I already have "Everybody was kung-fu fighting!" in my head, so you can't infect me! :rotfl2: Movie was cute enough. Good message for weight loss. Not as good overall as a Disney/Pixar-type movie, but cute nonetheless.

Ok, I will go back and do a big post so that I don't have to declare bankruptcy!
 
I think you just have this athletic look and they always saw you as Sporty Spice!

Ok, if I am Sporty Spice, then you are definitely Posh Spice! :rotfl2: :lmao:

I know there are some of you who already know But I lost another 2.2 pounds. For a total of 22.8!:banana:

WAY TO GO, Steph! WOO HOO! That will have to suffice as there are entirely too many dancing bananas on the past couple of pages for my comfort level.

II have not worked out since last Thursday and I can tell already in how my body feels. Seeing your pictures and the change that I CAN'T wait to have motivates me to get out there and do my workout. Thats a total problem with me if life gets to hectic I take care of everything else first and not myself. Good time to change that.::yes::

Ok, so this really hit home with me. Prior to about February, this was my take on things. I had the gym membership and all...and I worked out once in a while. BUT...it was always the first thing to go. Need to run to the store? Guess I can't work out. Meeting ran longer than expected? No time to work out. Gotta volunteer at the school? Well, that was my work-out time, so I guess I can't go to the gym. It was ALWAYS the first thing to go.

Now it is the last. Really...that is pretty much the only change that I made. Making my workouts a priority. Not just A prinority. THE priority.


EriKa - I'd love to know whats in the pocket of your Donald Duck windbreaker. [/COLOR]

:lmao: I haven't a clue! But I sure did love that jacket!

Erika, you and your brother are cute and I love the pants. Did you notice the guy in the yellow jacket picking his nose? Hope he did shake eeore's hoof after that. Yuck. :goodvibes

Ok, now I have to leave not getting anything done.


Yeah, I noticed that! Poor guy. Bad enough that it happened in someone else's family photo...but now it has been digitized so it can last for all eternity! :rotfl2:
 
This may be funny to some of you...but really...I need help on this one!

So I am feeling really crampy and I am eating everything in sight! This is always a major sign of TOM for me. But I thought I had it just a couple of weeks ago? (NO, I don't really keep track...) But I know that I am in sync with someone here...I just can't remember who. I don't think it is Kat. For some reason I am thinking Liz? Are we due this week? :rotfl2:

I tried looking back in the thread since we all usually mention when TOM is in town, but I couldn't find anything.

Weird request, I know. But if anyone happens to know my cycle, please clue me in! :lmao:
 
I'm totally stealing a line from somebody (Liz - was it you maybe?)

I HEREBY DECLARE "POST" BANKRUPTCY! I'm so far behind I need to wipe the slate clean and start again...I will try to catch up, but....no promises..


I TOTALLY stole that line from Dan, so go on and steal it, too! :rotfl: Hi, Dan!


SO - this is an indication of how my day has been...I rushed in from working in the yard, showered and raced out the door to get my hair cut.

Oh, no! I hate that! How did the cut go? Pictures???

I totally thought the same thing as soon as I read that, Nancy! I love it and am going to use it.

And I already have "Everybody was kung-fu fighting!" in my head, so you can't infect me! :rotfl2: Movie was cute enough. Good message for weight loss. Not as good overall as a Disney/Pixar-type movie, but cute nonetheless.

Ok, I will go back and do a big post so that I don't have to declare bankruptcy!

So, is it Emily-appropriate? Can I take her? She has seen lots of Disney movies but mostly nice gentle little things.

Ok, if I am Sporty Spice, then you are definitely Posh Spice! :rotfl2: :lmao:

Listen, I am so crazy I would love to be Posh!!! She's skinny and her husband is hot! Actually, I love the Spice Girls and think Posh is hilarious. No, Hi Lar Ious! Have you ever noticed how she will go from her fake posh accent to her normal, northern one? Oh, she's just a hoot in interviews. I love them as a couple.

But really, if we are dressing up for Halloween, I'm Ginger. Come on now! Geri has a little girl, too, and I have the hair and she's a bit more booty-licious. And we all know no amount of weight loss is making that go away!

So, Nick is home late tonight and I made Em mac and cheese and had one bowl, one only, and then threw the rest of it away. So I wouldn't finish the box. Can one learn willpower? I'm sure trying.
 
This may be funny to some of you...but really...I need help on this one!

Honey, we did have it a few weeks ago. It comes back. And yes, tomorrow is my day so it might be yours, too! BTW, I kind of think me, you, Kat, and Paula are all on the same schedule. Ladies, am I correct?
 
Hey everyone -

I am back from the college hunt...I think we have a winner....

Fort Lewis College....In the Mountains of Durango, CO....

Treyner is now in love with the coach, the place, the people and the coach... did I mention the coach???

I love the coach as well...very matter of fact and very pro-active...
He coached the pro's in Florida and Colorado...college in Texas and Alabama and foreign teams in Brail and Equador. Very well known around the world in soccer. Has it in with most of the pro teams...has successfully coached many to go on....and is a stickler for good athletes lead good lives...

Treyner is leaving for Durango again at the end of July for a camp...and to get the final word...

He is visiting Augsburg here locally on Thursday -being his agent is a full time job! I should get paid!! :lmao:

As far as work goes... I am speaking on a State level in a few weeks on the 50's and Tupperware's significance...paid speaking engagement so not too shabby....they want me to show up looking like June Cleaver for nostalgic purposes...I will take pics if it ever happens..:badpc:

I feel lost...being in the bowles of the mountains left me with no cell-phone or e-mail access for most of the past week...

I will also let you guys know...I hired a trainor...he is freakin hot...great smile...very personable...he acts like he has a vested interest in my health...

his name...

Treyner.

That's right...

Treyner...

He needs to gain about 20...I need to lose about 20 plus 100...and he is looking for some part time work...so...he has a job...on top of Tupperware...which he is doing...because he wants money with little hours...and no one wants to hire him with his schedule...


I don't blame them either...

So I have him at $10 an hour for 2 hours a day...he makes me meals...he can have 3 hours...

He and I will be posting pics by the end of the week...we shall see the difference by the end of summer...and his Birthday....I know I have said this before..but he is brutal...and believes in public humiliation...

As far as the trip...

He again wants to know nothing of the trip....thinks it is funny because it is killing me....but...he does know some of you will be there...and he is asking if anyone has single young sisters, cousins or nannies!:confused3 ;)

I will post pics from our trip....and get caught up....between tonight and tomm....

The good news is I weigh the same...no gain after a week of not having a stove...:cool2:
 
Dawn, that's awesome!!

Erika, I am due at the beginning of next week. Mine is regulated by a small piece of plastic with many little yellow things embedded in it.

Liz, :rotfl2: . And good for you on the mac and cheese!!

We did spinach, chicken, onion, and mushroom quesadillas and fat free refried beans. Mmm.

And, my ankle hurts. I likely shouldn't have done cardio today... but I hate missing a workout...
 
Honey, we did have it a few weeks ago. It comes back. And yes, tomorrow is my day so it might be yours, too! BTW, I kind of think me, you, Kat, and Paula are all on the same schedule. Ladies, am I correct?

OK - that is just a bit freaky... mine hit on Sunday... I have heard of women in the same office / house getting in sync, but I never thought that a group of women chatting online could get in sync....

Hey everyone -

I am back from the college hunt...I think we have a winner....

Fort Lewis College....In the Mountains of Durango, CO....

I have only been to CO once, but I loved it out there.... What kind of educational programs do they have? Something that Treyner is interested in I hope....

Treyner is now in love with the coach, the place, the people and the coach... did I mention the coach???

his name...

Treyner.

Too cool.... who else has a vested interest in your health besides your son.... I am still a bit shocked by Tim Russert's death (not sure where I am going to get my election coverage now...), but it sure made me think twice about putting my health on the back burner again...

As far as the trip...

He again wants to know nothing of the trip....thinks it is funny because it is killing me....but...he does know some of you will be there...and he is asking if anyone has single young sisters, cousins or nannies!:confused3 ;)

I will post pics from our trip....and get caught up....between tonight and tomm....

The good news is I weigh the same...no gain after a week of not having a stove...:cool2:


Tell Treyner that I'll keep my eye out for someone for him if he does the same for me. It should be someone with a good heart, be in their 30's (a cougar I am not) and be open to having fun.... :rotfl2:

Dawn - glad you are back... this board just is not the same without you...

Goof
 
I agree, Goof....wild.

WB, Dawn. Glad you and Trey found a school he is happy with. How far is it from home?
