118!!! Way to go skinny minnie kimmie wimmie!!!

Your hard work has definitely paid off. We need pics of that hard earned figure! A beach ready body in the dead of winter. Wow!

And you even worked out on your cheat day...dear lord, you never cease to amaze me!

What's your next goal/assignment from the nutritionist? Gotta keep you on track. Yeah, right.

Btw, I'm still tripping on your veggie burger with broccoli dinner. OMG! That's an appetizer! You know, I guess that's why I weigh about a hundred pounds more than you...Hmmm...

Congrats again!!!

 

[kimwim8]

Thanks guys! You have no idea how much you made me laugh this morning!

Tracey - thanks, as always, for stopping by and providing me with much needed encouragement!

Marie - YUP, now you've done it. Now you HAVE TO hop on a plane & come to NJ to "straighten me out". hahaha. Actually, I don't know if NJ can handle the 2 of us together.

Dena - You almost made me pee my pants, and that wouldn't have been pretty here at work! Basically my next goal/assignment from Nancy is to just go back on the maintenance plan with cheats incorporated in. Maintenance gives me broader choices in carbs, fats and treats. That's HER plan for me. MY plan for me is to be good more than I'm bad and exercise. That's about it. hahahaha

I actually did have a co-worker come to me yesterday saying that he is worried I'm taking this weight loss thing too far. I reassured him that he'd see me with bad food more often now. I guess I was a little fanatical this past month trying to get those pounds off, when I'm sure to other people I looked "fine" anyway.

You guys understand, right?

 

[kmp1191]

SKINNIE MINNIE KIMMIE WIMMIE!!!!!
I like that one!!
Ok...so the co-worker said he was worried about you....but did he tell you how great your @$$ looked in those pants??!! C'mon....you can tell us....you're among friends!!! He hit on you, didn't he??!!

And yes, we understand!!

Get your mind out of the gutter, woman!! Sorry to disappoint you, but it wasn't like that. Usually he & I bust on each other pretty bad, so when he was serious in that conversation - it was scary. But it was nice that he cared, you know?

Oh, and Dena - thanks a whole hell of alot for the nickname. Now I know that Marie will NEVER let me forget it.

 

[kmp1191]

AAWWWWWW....what's the matter kimmie wimmie? Don't like the nicky namey?? God I love teasing you!!!

and okay, okay.....so he wasn't hitting on you.....(but you just know he was checking you out!!!)

Have a great evening girl!! I'll check in w/ you tomorrow!

o geez...sounds like trouble...im coming too

So we had some nice time to ourselves. The only downfall was that tomorrow is my weigh-in day with Nancy...so we couldn't do dinner out.

a nice time with the only downfall being no dinner out?! I believe the correct phrase would be "the only downfall was that jen was not with us" work on that, would ya

CONGRATS on 118!!!!!! someone will be skinny minnie this summer at dismeet--and it wont be me

Now, you have a mission--find a day in february that im coming to visit or you can come here and we can go to cracker barrel--i havent gotten picked on by you andyour hubby in a really long time--starting to be sad!

 

[toystoryduo]

Congratulations Kim! You did it!

I think we should call you Kim Possible! I am so proud of you!

Keep up the good work!

Have a great weekend!

 

[kimwim8]

You guys are so sweet to me. I love you!!!

Jen - YES we definitely need to hang out. I still have your freakin Christmas present here.

Just a quick update, guys. Janine called me at 10:15 last night & asked me to come to her house to stay with her son (20 mths. old) while her DH took her to the hospital (bleeding again). Her sister ended up coming down to relieve me, and I got a call from Janine this morning around 11. At some point during the night she was transferred to the University of Penn Hospital. They're not happy that she's bleeding so often, so she's got to stay up there for about 2 weeks to be monitored closer. The baby is doing great, they say, and she's weighing 1.5 pounds already and measuring longer than expected (which is GREAT news). She's not showing any signs of early labor, so that's another blessing. Please keep her in your thoughts and prayers as I know this is a tough enough time for her...let alone being an hour away from home & she probably won't see her son for a couple weeks. Her spirits were good today and I think she's happy that she isn't home wondering when this is gonna happen again - at least she's around medical professionals that can take care of her right away.

 

[kmp1191]

& for Janine and her family. I hope everthing turns out ok for her. (Make sure you tell her that everyone on the DIS Wish is pulling for her....that means the baby's middle name will have to be DIS-WISH!!)
yes, i'm a dork, but that's ok....you still love me!!

You are a great friend....being there for her....any chance of you moving south anytime soon???

[goldcupmom]

Congrats on the loss, Kim! You're doing AWESOME!

Have fun with the Super Bowl Party today!

 

[Blueeyes101817]

....any chance of you moving south anytime soon???

marie

That answer better be no! she cant leave me

 

[Foxfiregrrl]

HI, Kim! I knew that I had read part of your journal in the past but never got to the end... I went back to work on it and realized that you have 88 pages in your journal! SO, I just caught up since the first of the year

You are doing an AWESOME job!! I will have to stop by here more often to see how it is done!! You are very dedicated! You have me considering a nutritionist now also. Maybe that would help give me the kick I need to do this thing right and get some of the weight off now!!

I'm sorry to hear about your friend. I'll keep her in my thoughts and hope she starts doing better. I know that must be very scary for her. I am glad that I read about her though, cause I have been working on my jogging some and was debating whether it would be safe to do some during pregnancy (only if I got better at it before getting preg. though). After reading about Janine though I think I will just stick w/ walking (and hopefully yoga) once I get to preg. I am just TERRIFIED of any complications. I wish her the best!

Keep up the good work!! I'm sure once you get back to feeling 100% and can do your workouts like you want, then you'll be able to keep the weight off with NO Problems!

 

[toystoryduo]

Our thoughts and prayers are with Janine and her family. It must be so hard for her to be in the hospital and away from her son. Our best wishes go out to the entire family.

 

[kimwim8]

Thank you so much, you guys. I will definitely let Janine know you guys are pulling for her (but I don't think I'll mention the middle name thing, Marie ).

Welcome back, Amber! Thanks for stopping by the madness that is my journal! I don't blame you one bit for not reading all of the pages! I still can't believe how long my journal is. Does anyone know if there is a way I can pull up just my own posts to re-read how I've done this past year (not that I don't love all of the responses I get! )??

The poor Bears. They gave it a good shot in the first 1/2. Not sure what happened in the 2nd 1/2. Not that it was the determining factor...but I really think they need to play the Superbowls in a domed stadium from now on. It's such an important game, you know?

Anyway, it's Monday and yes I ate bad ever since Thursday. I'm not going to be back on plan today yet, but I will definitely be eating less than I have been all weekend. And I also hope to get on the treadmill tonight.

I hope you all had GREAT weekends!

 

[traceycooper]

Hi Kim
Hope Janine is doing well & like you said she is in the best place, they can take good care of her.
I guess the Bears lost then!!
I tried to watch it, but it didnt come on tv untill 11pm over here, & wasnt due to finish till around 3am!!!
So i fell asleep

 

[kimwim8]

Hey Tracey! Thanks for stopping by. Yes, Janine is doing ok. She'll be in the hospital until at least 2/15 when they'll re-evaluate her (she'll be 24 weeks pregnant then). And unfortunately, yes, the Bears lost.

Well guys...I have a question for ya....Should I start a new journal for a new year? Maybe a maintaining journal? This one is getting really long and I know I personally get intimidated by LONG journals. What do you guys think?

I somehow kinked my neck bad. Like can't look left or tilt left or back and now the pain is kind of shooting down the middle of my back. (started getting really bad yesterday afternoon). I'm going to go to the chiropractor tonight and see if they can fix me up. Unfortunately, no working out in any way until I get that fixed.

Have a good one, peeps!

 

[traceycooper]

Wow Kim thats spooky!!
I had exactly the same pain in exactly the same places!! I looked over my shoulder one morning & it just went. It took nearly 3 weeks to dissapear, last Thursday i went for a back, neck & shoulder massage cos i was in so much pain & i started a new gym, they gave me some easy controlled back strengthening exercises which i did Friday & saturday & i woke up Sunday & it had completly dissapeaered!!
Good luck at the chiropractor let us know how you get on

 

[kmp1191]

ok kim.....we know the truth on how you kinked your neck....you dirty little girl you!!! Tell that DH of yours to go easy on ya!!!
oh, and thanks for not giving the details!!!

I don't know....I like this journal....it has some of my best come-backs and one liners. It also has your before and after pics. You can do a new title...."Kim's Maintenace Journal" or "Skinny Kimmy Wimmie's Plan to Stay Skinny Kimmy"....and then put the starting post/page number.
(I like the second title better...just so ya know!)

Have a good evening!! (and be careful!! )
marie

 

[kimwim8]

That's freaky, Tracey. My neck is definitely feeling better today. The chiro hooked me up to some electrode machine and it felt SO good! Then he tried to massage the spasms out of my neck/shoulder/head and I didn't feel any better neck-wise last night. But this morning I felt better. I still can't look to the left without it being uncomfortable, but my neck doesn't feel locked anymore.

Marie - don't even know how to respond to you. You're a mess. I'm guessing you speak from experience? And I guess I'll just keep going with this journal. Don't want you to miss your one liners. Thanks as always, girl.
