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

[DisneyWorld Delight]

Hi all...lost another pound over night...maybe I should be listening to my body..I felt starving and yet finished when I was full...

Geesh-a-lou - your on fire.

Ok. I was going to be the biking queen. Much easier to ride without the children, and they are now back in school. Wed and Thur were a no go. Friday, today, this morning, my sister comes to the office. We are gonna ride together. She'll take Molli's bike and I'll ride mine. We hustle up, ready to rock & roll.

Her bike, something is wrong with that *$(#U$&*%()#$*)(#@ thing! It didn't want to budge. The front wheel wouldn't roll. Then all the sudden it would. We laughed and I kept barking "roll thru it", "roll thru it". We got to the flood wall, and she just kept struggling. We laughed and laughed. We both try to blend in and we were calling attention to ourselves left and right. The bike would decide to not move, it squeaked, I was slobbering everywhere cause I couldn't keep upright, laughing so hard. My stomach muscles got the major workout today. We ended up taking turns and pushed them more than ride. I am ready for a major nap.

I am SO sorry for your struggles!!! So - what kind of "fate" did that bike meet when you returned home?

Well...a couple times, I picked it up and slammed it down, cursing at it. And I dearly wanted to throw it. But, alas, I am a problem solver. I will get to the bottom of it.

I would have slammed it too! Probably would have either broken something on it for real, or hurt my toe from drop-kicking it! Yeah - I'm a problem slover too...AFTER I blow my top!

So - I have the "teen crew" here. It's really funny how the music they listen to is SO OLD! Honestly. Guitar Hero has done a lot for "classic rock". They think is the coolest music...and here I'm wanting them to play hip-hop... (currently playing is Queen's Bohemian Rhapsody...)

 

[AKASnowWhite]

YES I HAVE CONTROL ISSUES!

OK - so I'm just "catching up" on some of what I missed when I was away - and can I just say...OH TAG FAIRY??!!!

 

[BrcsDisneyPrncs]

You can tell everyone is away for the weekend when it is ME that is waking the thread up!

Starting to kick a little of the exhaustion i hope. Been keeping up with the dreadmill, and am actually back down a pound or two, so that's encouraging. But Bruce is working days all weekend, so i hope i don't get bored and just snack, snack snack.

Lucy has her first puppy dr appointment today, so i'm excited to get her all checked out.

Hope everyone is having a great weekend!

E - bless you for the patience you have had to date with your friend, there is only so much one individual can shoulder for someone else.

dwd - i probably would have brought the bike home and lit it on fire, but thats just me

 

[SeptemberGirl]

Hey, I'm just popping to say goodbye. I was reading, catching up, and I want to reply to all of you but I have to leave in half an hour. I'll miss you, girls and Dan, while I am away.

Be happy!

 

[DisneyWorld Delight]

Liz! Have a good time. I'll miss you!

Ok so I have had some busy times... I told you all how my thyroid meds had gotten a little much for me since I lost weight... now with heart racing they want to ...well no they have put me on heart medication. Not sure how long I will be on it and not sure what is wrong with my heart.. and I thought weight loss was supposed to be good for you! I suppose they will send me to a cardiologist. My Doc is on vacation but has left me his cell phone number incase something goes wacky while he is away.. what doctor does that gives out his cell number. So I was bad and looked at my lab work and all I can say is HOLY SH!T! a normal TSH value is .3 to 6. MINE WAS 0.003 WAY TO LOW!

I feel much better today and I haven't even had the heart meds... Wal-mart didn't have it in stock and I will have to get it this afternoon after I go to work. I worked and keep everyone on their toes yesterday no one wanted to leave my side to make sure I was OK. I think they LOVE ME!


Nancy as for my tagline all I can HAHAHAHAHAHAH! I do have major control issues! I won't let anyone push the cart in stores. I try not to let Stephen drive out of state. Infact as I drove home from Maine I drove all 6 hours and finally let him take over when we got into Burlington Vt ( that is an hour drive from my house he knew where we were!!! ) SEE CONTROLL ISSUES!

Liz have a great trip!

Erika I hope your are enjoying your relaxing time away!

DEB you went from dodging ducks and birds now to dodging teens
Lyz YOU got off the DREADMILL GOOD FOR YOU! BAD FOR THE BIKE THAT WASN"T WORKING! Hey long do I take phone away for?? I took it last Monday????????
KAT where oh where are you??? I should be online tonight after 11:30 if you are around.
Stacey Thanks goodness for you on the weekends! I was up just not here! I was off at the apple orchard getting homemade donuts.. mmm they were still warm.

 

[DisneyWorld Delight]

Hey long do I take phone away for?? I took it last Monday????????

You should give it back now. I usually take it away for a day or two. Or if I'm seriously threatening her with it, I'll say, straighten up, or you lose the phone for 3 days. And that works, cause she's probably going somewhere and will need the phone. Social status and all.

You don't want her to get used to life without it. You need her to need it.

Scary about your heart. Ya, losing weight, you should be losing meds, not adding to them.

Ummmm....are you saying that just because I won't let anyone else push the cart (EVER!) that I may have control issues???

Totally agree. Loosing weight is about being healthier! My best (un-scientific) guess is that your body is now trying to figure itself out. You've gone and *confused* it by loosing weight!

I've had somewhat of a *mixed* day. Had a GREAT 22.5 mile bike ride with DH this morning .... ...put in 476 bales of hay ...but also found out of a sad death in our community Nothing tragic, but sad none the less. Oh...and (I absolutely HATE to admit these things)....I'm having....*issues*. I'm not really sure what the problem is, but I think I have a pinched nerve or something. My left foot/ankle keep getting prickly and numb. If I really stretch, it works itself out - but keeps coming back. Can I just say, getting old really SUCKS sometimes???

We're off to another fair with our goats tomorrow - this is just a one-day deal for us....in and out the same day. MUCH less stress than our last one! More yumm-o-licious "fair food" to try to avoid...

 

[Dizneydawn]

Sorry to hear about the death in the town, Yeah I know all about those prickly numb feelings I get them in my fingers.. just the ring and pinky fingers weird. SIL says it is a pinched nerve somewhere in my back or Neck.
I Loved putting hay up! That was my favorite thing to do on the farm!

 

[3DisneyKids]

Hi all--

I am back home. Not much to report, just catching up with all of you. Can't believe I missed Liz before she left for her cruise!

Too tired for a real post, but will catch up when I can.

 

[DISNEY4XMAS]

[3DisneyKids]

[DISNEY4XMAS]

E~ have a great Day... oh BY the Way your DVC person said to say Hello I talked to her for 45 minutes Friday!

 

[DisneyWorld Delight]

Dawn - where is Jodi? She hasn't checked in forever?

Nothing exciting from me. Actually got up and went to church this morning. It's been AGES!

Sunday nap.

Now I need to clean the house.

 

[goofyfan-12]

Hi everyone...

I stay off the boards and Dan comes out to play for a few posts... (BTW - I'm with Erika, you stay off the boards for months on end and then come back with just a "Hi".... WTH is up that....

Anyways, the visit from my friend was a good one. I ate a little too much, drank a little too much, golfed a little too much and laughed way too much.... All in all, it was a good time. It was great to see him and catch up.

Sounds like you all had an interesting time when I was gone. I am trying to catch up on all of the posts and will respond accordingly. Well, I am off to get myself back into work mode... I'll check in tomorrow to catch up with you all...

Paula

 

[DisneyWorld Delight]

Paula - sounds like you had a good visit.

Good Monday Morning People! (In my best Ty Pennington impression)

I plan on being busy today. (course has anyone else noticed my pattern of, I say I'm busy, then waste away my day on the Dis )

Will be out of town for the afternoon. But checking in and reading. Hopefully someone has an exciting story of dieting success (a close call averted will suffice), an amusing ancidote, life drama all your friendly strangers can weigh in on (cause there's no advice like the advice of cyber friends - yeah, explain that to your mom).

My weekend drama involved my getting a little too competitive with my family during a friendly game of dominos. Let's just say there was crying (me), whining (me), gnashing of teeth (again me), laughter (everyone) and blood (not mine). (jk)
