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

[SeptemberGirl]

Lyz - thanks, babe. Are you so glad I wore the white Friday night and not Sat? I AM such a brat!

Kat - Yes, it's very much like dating. And I've always held that men are like clothes. Sometimes you take the tags off before you were really sure you were keeping them. And you have to be careful - no one wants a closet full of returns.

I can go on all day. But I'll spare you.


I didn't get my nap. I worked. Darn work. Pooh on work!

 

[MaMabearJo]

Okay, here's me and the birthday girl. She just turned 30 and she and Nick grew up together. She is basically his little sister.

You look great, I am so jealous, but very happy for you. Love the dress.

 

[DisneyWorld Delight]

Well, this Thursday is the date, we sign papers and the house will be gone. We spent our last weekend over there cutting tree's now everything is done. I am so excite I don't ever have to go to that place again.

That's a relief! Do your inlaws know the house has basically been cleaned up and sold?

For myself, doing great on my eating, but not so good on working out. I really just don't have the drive. I was reading a fitness mag. this morning and was telling my kids, I think it would be better for me to do the excerise then sitting here and reading them.

How do you guys have the energy? I don't know if I over did it for the last 3 months or My body is just that tired. Something will change and soon. I have to make it.

Well, have a great day, chat soon.

I've been so tired too. Just like the heat is zappping me.

POISON IVY!

Poor fella. I know how he feels. I am alergic to PI. Didn't know it, till I got it in 2003. The first time ever. And did I break out. On my arms. I had been clearing brush. My arms were in such bad shape, so as not to spread it, I cut finger and thumb slots in a pair of long tube socks and wore them. I looked crazy. In the shower, the super hot water, beating down on my itchy arms, it felt better than you know what. And the ER doctor who gave me my shot agreed. lol.

They are the bomb, no? I eat a chocolate one almost every day. No joke.

You still have easter Candy? (I'm comin' over.)

My MIL was annoying me and then she took me to lunch, bought Emily shoes, and then TOOK her so I could work, so now I have to not hate her. Eh, I'm just a b$tch.

This is hi lar ious!

I lost the first 50lbs without the exercise.

This was good for me to read. My OEA pal.

... when she goes on vacation we joke about taking up a collection to keep her there.

 

[DisneyWorld Delight]

I AM such a brat!

You are a brat! I love it!

Kat - Yes, it's very much like dating. And I've always held that men are like clothes. Sometimes you take the tags off before you were really sure you were keeping them. And you have to be careful - no one wants a closet full of returns.

Ohhh this is good. You are freaking brilliant today.

EriKa - are you happy there's been some action finally?

 

[SeptemberGirl]

You look great, I am so jealous, but very happy for you. Love the dress.

Thanks, doll. Just to put it in perspective, here's me last April. It was six more months before I went to WW.

Ohhh this is good. You are freaking brilliant today.

I aim to please.

 

[HockeyKat]

Yeah, heat. Whatever. It was 98 today!

I am slightly less irritated now. I think that it wore off. Now I just have the TOM headache, whee.

I will spend another week with no D... I am in Charlotte Fri-Sun, and he is in Charlotte Mon-Thur closing the store there. Anyone wanna come visit?

 

[BrcsDisneyPrncs]

Okay, here's me and the birthday girl. She just turned 30 and she and Nick grew up together. She is basically his little sister.

Just a quick one for now, i might be back on later, i've been writing up all my wedding thank you cards for the last few days

Just had to say, WHOA! Look at you woman! You look great!

 

[3DisneyKids]

So I came home and saw the level of activity and went and made popcorn (100 cal bag) so that I could much and read!

Hope that everything is fine with your dad and Jessica!

Just back from the hospital. Not good. He is fine in many ways, but he will have to move to a rehab facility for a couple of WEEKS before he can come home. LOTS to do on that front (I am going to pack up my parents' house, get it on the market and move them into a condo...at least I am trying to do that.)

Sorry, I have fallen off the wagon so hard I have been embarrassed to post.

OMG, if I stopped posting every time I was off the wagon I would have been history from this thread ages ago. You will get back on. You are a warrior!

Erika - I hate running. It just SUCKED today. Argh. Actually, you know what I hate? Those people who don't run for years and then just hop up off their couches and do a 5K. Hate them.

Oh, I totally hate those people with a mf'ing passion! And my run sucked today, too. It happens.

Hi guys. I'm sorry I've been so elusive lately. I am having the blahs and I'm so tired. I'd rather sleep than do just about anything.

I'm going thru a lot of upheaval with my weight loss. My body fights me tooth and nail. I'll have a really good day and exercise and eat healthy and I'll gain a pound. The next time, I'll eat unhealthly, example: toasted ravoli with dinner and lose a pound. It gets discouraging. (I know I should only weigh in once a week, but I can't help myself.)

So, between my racing mind, my tireness and feeling out the best way to get comfortable in the clothes I'm wearing before I can even move to a smaller size has me pushing you to the back of my list. I have to stop doing that cause here is where I'm most motivated. That is alarmingly clear.



We weigh the hogs tonight. The fair is the first week of August. The one we take to fair will officially weigh in on Sunday August 3rd at 7am. Cross your fingers for tonight.



And thanks to whoever recommended fiber one bars. I got the peanut butter, and YUM-O! Seriously.

Yikes on the camper! At least you have one and it is all squared away, but that sucks about the wasted time and energy.

Don't weigh yourself daily (you know this, I don't have to tell you). Just keep making those good choices.

And the fiber one bars are my lifeblood.

Kat, sorry you are raging today. (I, myself, am finding you amusing.) Are you being passive agressive to make yourself feel better or are you just seething?

Ditto. I am sorry you are seething, but your rants are a riot to read. Hope you are chilling with a beer right now.

Well, this Thursday is the date, we sign papers and the house will be gone. We spent our last weekend over there cutting tree's now everything is done. I am so excite I don't ever have to go to that place again.

WOO HOO about the house, Jodi! Yeah, what do your in-laws think? Glad to hear that you are doing so well with your food. Have you weighed in lately?

That's me. That's my life right now. Nothing bad, just nutso. DS had PT earlier today, now it's off to the DR. because the poor kid WALKED BAREFOOT THRU POISON IVY! In his defense though, he didn't KNOW there was poison ivy there, because it's in a spot between our house and our neighbors, where there is grass/lawn that they mow....it was "mowed down" poison ivy, so it was all sneaky and camouflaged! His feet are blistering, oozy...nasty!

UGH! What a drag, Nancy! Sorry life is so crazy. Hang in there.

They are the bomb, no? I eat a chocolate one almost every day. No joke.

WORD.

Lyz - thanks, babe. Are you so glad I wore the white Friday night and not Sat? I AM such a brat!

YES, so happy about that! OMG, you never would have heard the end of it from me had you worn it on Saturday!

Ohhh this is good. You are freaking brilliant today.

EriKa - are you happy there's been some action finally?[/QUOTE

Abso-freakin-lutely.

Just a quick one for now, i might be back on later, i've been writing up all my wedding thank you cards for the last few days

Just had to say, WHOA! Look at you woman! You look great!

Yeah, she is a stone fox, totally!

 

[DisneyWorld Delight]

E - sorry about your dad. Can you give more details, or is this a no entry zone?

Kat - glad you are feeling betta.

Liz - What can I say?!?! You look amazing and you have come so very far. Now, you look normal. A beautiful woman, going thru life, you've always been this way.

Well -this is how crazy my life is. We weighed the hogs. They weigh:
-
-
-
-
-dun
-
-
-
-
-dun
-
-
-
-
-
daaa
-
-
-
-
-265 and 250!

The goal being 220 - 280.

I don't know what I am doing anymore. You know we were very leary about the scales accuracy, cause those hogs look humongous. Remember, I got in and it read accurately.

So this time, we started out by weighing a 50 lb bag of feed. 50 lbs. Right on the money. The scales must be accurate. This is what the scales look like, btw.

And we don't own our own. (we have to pick them up at the 4h extension office and take them back.) And to make matters worse, I declined to purchase a scale for $1,000 back in March cause I didn't want to spend the money. Boy am I kicking myself for that one.

There is no way. NO FREAKING WAY those hogs gained 100 lbs in 11 days.

We about crapped ourselves when we saw how much Willie (265) weighed first. We stopped and started to back track. Did we engage the scales? Are we using the right weight? Is the bar really hovering in the middle? It's all good. But who the #$%^ knows? Obviously not me.

We are guessing the last weigh in, the scales must have disengaged or we are mentally handicapped.

Regardless, the hogs are "in the zone". Hog weigh in is 11 days away. We can drop the round the clock feedings, (thank heavans), and the expensive grower feed, but now we will have to make sure they don't go over. I tell you. I am high/low high/low.

Anyway, now that I've shared more that you ever wanted to know about hogs, you can rest assured, the hogs are bigger than you!

I think!

 

[DISNEY4XMAS]

Sorry, I have fallen off the wagon so hard I have been embarrassed to post.

I think I am back on track today. Yesterday I had good intentions but lost them when I got home... I at least ate well during the day and made it to hockey.
I need a kick in the rear... I am so meh about everything. At least this weekend is a Charlotte trip and I can get the heck out of here for a while and lay by the pool w/ my best friend.

Ok I fell off the wagon HARD too! I am still here and I really don't care about falling on or off right now. I did manage not to eat a WHOLE pizza tonight I only ate 2 slices. Unfortunately my off the wagon was at lunch and I ate a QUARTER POUNDER WITH CHEESE AND A MED FRY from McD's

Steph - did you weigh in yesterday? Did I miss that post?

UUUUMMM NO every other week do to the fact that I must work while the meeting is going on! I think I may run to another meeting this week just because I have to work AGAIN this monday. I called the BOSS LADY on scheduling me EVERY monday AGAIN and she was NICE and changed the schedule She even called my cell to apologize on her Mistake! OMFG! This lady is usually a DRAGON LADY! She said she must have lost her mind when she did the schedule!

I'm going thru a lot of upheaval with my weight loss. My body fights me tooth and nail. I'll have a really good day and exercise and eat healthy and I'll gain a pound. The next time, I'll eat unhealthly, example: toasted ravoli with dinner and lose a pound. It gets discouraging. (I know I should only weigh in once a week, but I can't help myself.)

HAHAHA I find the same dam thing happening!!

Where I went yesterday: Well, here's the story. We got the camping spot. Now I need a camper rental. I call around and pretty much everyone is sold out. They tell me, "there is a fair that week." (ummm, yeah, that's why I need a camper.)

So last Friday, I find a camper for rent. And bonus, it's a brand new unit that hasn't sold, and they are moving it to the rental department. (Which for Bob and I is awesome, cause we are snobs about clean and other peoples germs.) I say, I'll have to call you right back. Talk to Bob and he's like, we should just buy one. Which I don't necessarily want to do. I want to take my time and find the right camper at the right price.

We spend the weekend scouring the internet and tradin' times for the right one. Monday morning I go to a town an hour away to a dealership to look around. I spent yesterday morning with "the master of the camper sale." He's all, "that's just what I do for my customers." "blah blah" (Maddi is with me and he lifts her on the top bunk) and tells me "how much he likes kids. 3 boys" "blah blah" "lemme tell you this and I'm not just selling you, I think camping is the best way for families to spend time, away from the phones and tv" and I'm thinking, buddy, this is probably gonna happen once and year and we will have phones, tv's and internet.

I'll cut to the chase. I drove to a remote town an hour away, listened to the pitch, drove back, and both, BOTH ways, I stuck, 3rd car back, behind someone who thought the speed limit was 30! I was literally jumping out of my skin.

And then, Bob says, well that's too much money. Just rent the camper you found. LAST WEEK. I literally just snagged it from a guy who was intersted but didn't put any money down. So, it was a long, well life really.

See, nothing exciting is going on, just stuff I have to do.

We weigh the hogs tonight. The fair is the first week of August. The one we take to fair will officially weigh in on Sunday August 3rd at 7am. Cross your fingers for tonight.



Snuff - the pictures were good. Sam is beautiful. And you call your mom, "mommy" - sweet. The house you want to buy, did the storms affect it?

Ok So much to comment on here
1. Travel adventure of finding a NEW Camper ~ It could have been worse you could have gotten there and it could have been a old NEW camper and Gee did the guy have a comb over?? He sounded cheesy.
2. Husbands I think Live to make our lives difficult!
3. You must have speed limits like us EVERYTHING IS 55 and I HATE HATE people who drive 45. I am always late for everything So I must always drive 60 GET THE F OUT OF MY WAY!!!!
4. No I don't usually call her mommy unless I want something! It is usually MA~
5. The House the owners were very quick to let me know that there was no damage, and minimal tree damage only a few branches down.

Okay, here's me and the birthday girl. She just turned 30 and she and Nick grew up together. She is basically his little sister.

Okay Can we say HOT DAM GIRL YOU LOOK GREAT!!!!!!!!!

Ohhh this is good. You are freaking brilliant today.

EriKa - are you happy there's been some action finally?

WHAT TYPE OF ACTION ARE WE TALKING ABOUT

Anyone wanna come visit?

ME ME ME!!!!

I am glad they gained !!!! HOG HEAVEN!!!

 

[goofyfan-12]

Hi everyone...

sorry for my being so quiet today. Lots going on at work and a little bit of drama at home, so not much time on the computer...

Work has been going well and the PM I work for is doing a great job about getting me involved at a higher level on projects. I think the idea of my leaving his office scared the crap out of him and he wants to be sure that I am happy.

As for home, I have been chatting with my best friend from college. He was not part of the architecture crowd that I am going to VT with this weekend, but he knows all of them. Yes, I realize that it may be strange that my best friend is a guy, but the fact is that its true. He usually comes up for a visit every summer to golf and see some of the local sights and he is doing the same this year. Now, my question is this, does anyone find it odd that he wants to come up on Tuesday and stay through Sunday. Also, you should know that I am not even going to be here on Wednesday. I have a meeting in my company's regional office in NJ that day and will be leaving at 8:00AM to drive down and won't be back until about 9:30PM. WTH? I am a little confused because usually, we do the three day weekend thing, so why the extended trip this time? I talked to him tonight and from what he was talking about I suspect he wants to get away from his life at home (having issues at work and some girlfriend issues currently), but why come here for a day when you know I won't be here? Any thoughts? Sorry for the off topic comments, but this has been bugging me all night.

Back to our regularly scheduled posts.....

Whoo hoo!!!! the hogs gained weight. I say we keep losing so that they keep gaining.... who's in????

Liz - I am loving your dress. Someday, I hope to have the courage to wear something sleeveless in public. Until that day, I will live vicariously through you while doing my bicep and tricep curls....

E - Keep us posted on the family... I am thinking good thoughts for your dad...

Steph - I am still crossing my fingers for the house deal.... Hope it all goes smoothly

Jodi - I will also keep my fingers and toes crossed until that closing is done... you have my permission to party when that deal is closed...

to our newlywed... - I'm sure you two are too cute for words right now.... good luck with the thank you notes...

Kat - I am thinking good thoughts for your job quest. I am not really sure what is worse... dating or job hunting. They both involve putting yourself out there and hoping someone likes you. The right job is out there for you.... I just know it....

Sorry if I missed anyone... it is getting late and I need my bed.... time to crash....

Pleasant dreams everyone...
Paula

E - sorry about your dad. Can you give more details, or is this a no entry zone?

Thanks for your thoughts. His health is fine and will be...it is his mobility. It is beginning to look like this once very active man is going to be in a wheel chair.

-265 and 250!

The goal being 220 - 280.

Can I just say...I LOVE, freaking LOVE the hog drama!

Ok I fell off the wagon HARD too!

Get back on it, girl! You know how!


WHAT TYPE OF ACTION ARE WE TALKING ABOUT

Not that kind! Omg, it has been ages, I think...I can't even remember. 10 days?

Hi everyone...

I have always had lots of very close male friends, so that is not weird to me. My opinion? He wants you. Seriously. If things are rough with his girlfriend right now, he wants to see how things will feel with you. Is he more comfortable with you? etc. That kind of thing. Keep us posted.

(And for what it's worth, hell yeah, I'd do him if I were you! Sorry, I am really punchy tonight!)

You know we are here for you.

I do know...and I love you guys for it. Thanks.


Maybe it was sucky run day, and we missed the memo.

WT F? I am on the mailing list and everything.



Erika, your check is in the mail!


WOO HOO!



I super love Big Macs. Haven't had one in eons. Yum. Sorry, not very helpful, huh?

OMG, Bic Macs are the spawn of Satan. Yuck.

 

[DISNEY4XMAS]

Wakey Wakey! Good morning Ladies of the Board!

Nothing planned for today! Let me rephrase that I have to call the modular dealer and tell her that we aren't going with her for the modular. And pray that they give us our money back! But other than that I have no major plans just clean the house and laundry!

Yesterday I drank a TON of water maybe not a ton by Erika's standards (84oz do you ever come out of the bathroom??!!!! ) But I drank a whole liter of water on the trip to burlington. I also saw almost every bathroon the Hospital had to offer.

Hope everyone has a great day and stays on track!

 

[SeptemberGirl]

Steph - Good for you with the water! I have not been drinking enough and I feel it!

Erika - McDonald's is yummy and that's all there is to it.

Paula - OMG just like my dream! Yeah, I think he's escaping and feeling things out. Hmm. When is he coming? I'm feeling very "Some Kind of Wonderful" about this. (Former 80's kids? In the House?)


Oooh, I am taking myself off to a facial today! I know, luxury, right? I got this amazing deal at a local spa, so I had to do it. They are hurting in these times so they are offering really really cheap deals. I got on the mailing list! I shouldn't be so happy about a business suffering, but it's kind of cool to be able to do this.

Ok, off to weigh in and drop off Em!

Can I just say...I LOVE, freaking LOVE the hog drama!

I have always had lots of very close male friends, so that is not weird to me. My opinion? He wants you. Seriously. If things are rough with his girlfriend right now, he wants to see how things will feel with you. Is he more comfortable with you? etc. That kind of thing. Keep us posted.

(And for what it's worth, hell yeah, I'd do him if I were you! Sorry, I am really punchy tonight!)

Punchy.... I could think of a few other words to describe how you're feeling....

My question is this... how the heck do you start that conversation... I have known this guy for over 15 years now... I am way to chicken to call him on it so what, the endless cycle continues...


OMG, Bic Macs are the spawn of Satan. Yuck.

I know.... I had to share this because it was just too freaking wierd....

Have a relaxing time at your facial.... I love them because they are so relaxing. I haven't had one in years... hmmm... maybe that will be my reward for hitting my 15 pounds by my birthday goal.... I am about 10 pounds away now and that would bring my total to 50 pounds.... I see a facial in my future....

Have a good one everyone... I'll keep you posted on the soap opera, but I don't think anything major will happen until he comes up here next month...

Ciao'

Morning!

Steph--good for you with the water. And no, I am not a water goddess... I have been slacking on my water big time for ages (like maybe a month!) so I am right there with you trying to get back on it. I likely still drink 64ozs a day, but about 40 of those are during a work-out, so I don't how much that even counts. I mean, I sweat A TON (especially with all of the high heat and humidity right now). Glad you have a down day today. I so need one of those....yes, already!

Liz--can't wait for the WW report! You always lose, so I a sure it will be good. And major jealousy for the facial! Gosh, I can't remember that last time I had one. Good point, though, about the economy. This is exactly the type of business that will struggle. The little luxuries like facials, etc. are going to be what people give up first. I will have to check out the local spas for deals.

Paula--yeah, you will have to wait until he gets here to see what this is really all about. But just go into the visit with an open mind.

My sister got in last night and we had a short visit (she is staying with my mom while my dad is in the hospital). But the kids haven't seen her yet. So we will head over there for a visit this morning and then I think I will take the kids up to see my dad in the hospital. This afternoon? I don't know yet. And I still can't see where in the day I am going to get my run in. And I have to. Monday was a rest day from running and yesterday sucked. So I have to get back on it ASAP.

OMG. I lost 2.6 this week! Paula, we are ROCKING our goal!

So, total loss 71.2lbs, and only 15.8 lbs away from goal weight!

I know that it seems like I lose every week, but honestly it's like a total surprise to me. I cannot believe I have come this far.

I think I need to throw a goal weight or 5K party and have you all come to NJ for it so we can celebrate - with light beers and veggies - because you guys are totally my "I need to thank" acceptance speech people!


As for spas - get on the email list. They email monthly specials, this one does, and for what I pay for waxing, which I was having done anyway, they are giving me the waxing AND a full facial. Can't beat it with a stick! Now, it's not my beloved Bliss, but hey, I have to support my local economy, right???
