s-nothing
l-turkey sandwich w/ lite ranch, & 8 baked lays

You are sooo funny!

I hope you're feeling better real soon. You are REALLY good today! You go girl!!

 

[Foxfiregrrl]

Sorry your allergies/sinuses are getting you down. Here's some non-allergenic pixie dust to help make them go away!

You are doing Great on your food! I have to agree that those Oreos would have been down the hatch if they were anywhere near me! I can resist a lot, but not Oreos!

I also agree that the carpet work counts as exercise. So do 30 crunchs! What about Bob? Have you forsaken him this week? You can get back in the groove!

Btw, Congrats on the weight loss you logged on Monday! Way to keep up the good work!

 

[lovinaz]

I hope your allergies are doing better today. What else are you taking for them? Nothing like a runny nose to put a damper on a workout...

Your food looks great! Way to go only having 5 fries!

 

[kmp1191]

Thanks ladies....I appreciate the (sneeze) well wishes. I am doing good....havent' wet my pants yet, so that's a plus!! I just wish the stuff in my head would loosen up. Just the pressure behind my eyes is what is killing me. Last night I took one of those Sudafed Nighttime Sinus pills....WOW!!! It's a good thing I had DH give me a wakeup call....I was out!! It's also a good thing I only took one...otherwise I'd still be asleep!!

Oh, I got a bunch of laundry done last night...about 42 loads!! (sneeze)Washed,dried,folded & put away!! That's major in my book!! I figured that was a little more important than a secret rendevous with bob. I might meet up with him tonight....depending on the head issues. It's just really hard to do crunches when every little movement makes you dizzy and feel like the top of your head it gonna pop off. (yes, i'm whining again!)(sneeze....sniffle/snork)

Talked to Dh....he's playing golf.... (insert your choice of name here___________________) I told him I hope the big club didn't come back around and knock him in the head....that would be really too bad!!

ok....enough rambling....oh...one more thing....I figured out that if I don't log on to the Dis first thing when I get to work, then I actually get some work done.....wow....who would'a thunk it?!

have a good one.....(sneeze)
later taters!

[kmp1191]

Wow, I got alot done at work today.....boss should be proud of me!!
Started off pretty good on the food intake, but dinner just got the best of me.... not really sure what happend...can I blame it on the Sudafed?

b-small bowl of frosted flakes (can we say - sugar overload?!)
s-nothing
l-(at about 2:30 pm) chicken sandwich & 12 oz sweet tea
s-18000 whoppers
d-oreo sonic blast
water intake - not enough to flush out the sonic blast (about 60 oz)
resisted - certainly not the whoppers or the ice cream!! but I did stay away from the donuts today!!
exercise - yeah, let's not go there. Bob's not talking to me either.

ok, so last night i found the laundry room and the master bedroom.....tonight i should be looking for the kitchen, but i'm not really sure i care....
ds has a migraine tonight....came home from school with it...i'm sure it's allergy related....and I can totally sympathize with him. he came home, took some Tylenol and went to bed....been there ever since. I check on him every 30 mins...sometimes he's awake, sometimes he's asleep.....poor kid.
ok....i guess i need to do the kitchen now....unless i find something to read on the dis.....

later taters!
marie
(hey, i didn't sneeze once while writing this....that's a good sign! )

 

[lovinaz]

Sounds like your allergies might be getting a little better since you wrote an entire post without sneezing!

I had a flashback to college days when I saw you had a shake for dinner. Ahh, those were the days - when you could eat crap all day long and not gain an ounce!

At least your 18000 Whoppers were the mini ones - so that's only 9000 Whoppers, which isn't too bad...

You are out of your routine this week, but you can get back on track next week when DH gets back!

 

[kimwim8]

You totally crack me up! Even with not feeling well, you're hysterical!

Hopefully you're on the mend now, and I hope DS is feeling better too.

Your poor DH, roughing it on the golf course. (can you feel my sarcasm?) Make that boy run his butt off when he gets home!!

I just bought the BL workout DVD. I can't wait to try it. I'm hoping on Sunday to try it out. All this talk about a rendevous with Bob...I had to see what fun I was missing!

 

[kmp1191]

(actually, they were the regular sized ones.... )

I think that is the understatement of the century right there!! I did do some crunches on the stability ball this morning...and some leg lifts while i was brushing my teeth....

It is literally impossible to get anything done with these kids of mine!! I'm trying to type this and my dd6 is laying on the floor, whining about how bored she is....gamecube,ps2,barbies out the butt,movies,...unbelievable!!
We are under SEVERE weather warnings until 8 tonight....tornados and softball size hail....school let out at 12 today. no, i'm not happy about it...i hate storms! (i already have the hallway closet cleaned out and ready for us)

oh yeah, kim - i can totally feel the saracasm!! lol he's gonna have alot to do when he gets home.....my laundry days are done!! i'll buy new clothes before i do all that again!! and if he says one word about his t-shirts being grey, or pink, i'm gonna knock him on his butt!!
Let me know how you like Bob....oh, and let me know what you think when his shorts kinda slide down on his hips real low.....kinda sexy, kinda gross....not sure which.....some things i would rather my imagination be in charge of!
ok....i guess i'll go watch the weather reports....see if i need to take cover yet.

later taters!
marie

oh, if anyone cares, i posted some pictures that i took a while ago over on the photography board...i think it was the one - show us your work - or something like that.

[kmp1191]

b-i don't remember....i think it was a pop-tart....
s-nothing
l-chicken wrap (literally, chopped up chicken wrapped up in a burrito shell. nothing else....really plain....but actually quite tasty)
s-brownie (i caved....dd & i made them...but i sent some to the neighbors and only kept 4 here....one for each of us!!)
d-cheeseburger (made it on the Foreman Grill thingy we've had for 2 years but never use!)
water intake - none - too much stress today....i caved...12 oz coke (but there is still like 4 oz left!)
exercise - cleaned out the closet to get ready for a tornado...also brought a bunch of boxes to the attic....oh, and i walked across the street to talk to a neighbor...(guess none of this counts, does it? Hey, can't blame a girl for trying! )

DH IS ON HIS WAY HOME!!!
yeah, can ya tell i'm ready?!! I can feel my sanity slowing working it's way back to me.....(it's either my sanity of the caffine overtaking my senses!) either way, i'll take it!!
They were supposed to have a banquet tonight and leave in the morning, but he said to heck with it and got on the road about 4pm. that will put him back here around.....10:30 ish!! i guess i'll sleep on my side of the bed tonight instead of the middle! oh, he thinks the guy is going to want to start putting in tile tomorrow!!! good thing i got that nasty carpet out of the way, huh!! (yeah me!! )

oh, one more ramble, then i have to go clean the house....again!!
Does anyone want my cat? her name is Torti. i swear i've had it with her too!! I was sitting at the desk and i look over and she is peeing on the rug outside of her litter box!! (I HAD JUST CHANGED IT!!) I threw a pad of paper at her....missed... and she took off running!! i'm so ticked!! when she finally came over to me, i chunked her butt outside for a little while!! what is it with my kids and the cat all against me right now?!!

i need a pill!!

marie

oh.....one more thing....does anyone have a 10 yr old son? mine is coming home w/ some SERIOUS language issues....i think i'm gonna have to buy the soap in bulk at sams this weekend!!

 

[lovinaz]

I'm glad your DH is finally back! Now you can get back into a workout routine (NO EXCUSES!)

My DS will be 10 on the 23rd. We don't have too much of a problem with his language (at least not yet). He knows not to say "this sucks" around me and he said "frickin'" once or twice and I gave him "the look" and now he doesn't say that anymore either. But WHO KNOWS what he is like when he is out of our earshot?!? I just hope for the best... We have a problem with his lying. He is extremely gifted and with that comes a very vivid imagination and the belief that he can outsmart anyone (which sometimes he can - the little rat!). Sounds like your kids are about the same age as mine - DS9, almost 10 and DD6 (100% ) who will turn 7 in June.

Oooh, I have been waiting for the Biggest Loser DVD on Blocksbuster Online FOREVER! Now I just might have to buy it if Bob has some gravity problems with his shorts... He has an awesome bod!

 

[kmp1191]

Hey Amy.....my ds's b-day is August...he'll be 11 - and dd will be 7 in July....sounds like we can relate!! except dd is no angel either!! she's an institgator!
We've been through the lying....the imagination.....even the " I found _____________ it's mine." only problem, he found stuff that belonged to someone else-or he found it in someone else's backpack, or in their desk!! we nipped that in the butt real quick...daddy pulled out his handcuffs and explained to him why people go to jail!! haven't had that problem since!!
His language is really getting to me!! He says "crap" all the time....he got grounded for a week for BS...(he didn't think I heard him!) and "this sucks" is another favorite. I told him that if he continued on this path, that boot camp summer school would love to shape him up!! he's tapered off, but slipped pretty bad this last week....he called his sister a.......let's see.....how can i say this without getting banned.......ok.....
Summers Eve Femine Product + bag!! needless to say, he's grounded for a month!! i went nuts!! i don't even know where he got that word from!! he says he made it up....yeah, and i was born yesterday!! i told him when he told me where he heard this word from, then we would adjust his grounding.....so far...nothing. i'll keep you informed.

ok....onto Bob....when you do the strength and stretching video.....his shorts are REALLY low on his hips.

ok....gotta help hubby put in the new ceiling fan!! (tile being put in on Monday!! )
later taters!!

Boy am I glad to hear I am not the only one with kids who act that way! I mean, mine are very well behaved in pubic or when I'm not around, but at home DS is usually a pain in the rump. And he is SO mean to his little sis... I can just see it now - he will be a senior in high school and she will be in 9th grade and have a crush on all his friends and he will get SO MAD. Can't wait...

I bet your house will look great with all the improvements you are making! Tomorrow starts a new week and you have no excuses to not eat right and stay on track. YOU CAN DO IT!

 

[Jane E.]

Marie, looks like you're son is keeping you busy. Hang on because it only gets worse! At least it did for me! Older ds was fine - younger ds gives me a run for my money.

Way to go with getting rid of the brownies! Looks like you're off to a great start for this week.

 

[kmp1191]

I am so ready for a new week!! I'm taking my shoes to work and walking on my lunch hour...i don't care if someone goes with me or not....i'm not even going to acknowledge that there is candy in the office, and i'm going to double my water intake!! Also, since hubby is back, i will go walking in the morning, and then running on tues,wed,thurs & fri evening. i'm also going to fit bob into my schedule on tues & thurs morning. This is my goal for this coming week. I know I can do this. There is absolutely NO reason why i can't reach this goal and lose 2 or 3 lbs this week!
This weekend was good....got 2 ceiling fans hung, a different light fixture in the entry way, all the furniture moved out of the living room and into the garage, plus i had a photo shoot all day today! yes, i'm exhausted! gonna list my food, if i can remember it, go help hubby put laundry away, take a shower and go to bed!!!

Sat
b-biscut w/ butter
l-popcorn chicken, swt tea 12 oz
d-root beer float.....i know i know......don't lecture!! i was miserable afterwards so i paid dearly for it!!

Sun-
b-poptart to go bar
l-fruit & cheese, crackers & some kind of dip (at the shoot)
d-nothing-too tired to eat
exercise-on my feet all day, moving furniture, prying up tack strips from the carpet,
water intake-40 oz root beer-12oz -(no icecream!)

thanks for hanging w/ me guys....i really appreciate you getting me back on track and helping to keep me there!

[kimwim8]

Hey Marie - Your plan looks tough this week! Stick to it, and you'll DEFINITELY be down a couple pounds, if not more.

Sounds like things are coming along at your house too with the renovations! You'll have to share some pics when it's done!

I saw on the news how hard some areas got hit with those storms. Were they close to you?

Take care!

 

[Foxfiregrrl]

Wow Marie! Big goals for the coming week! You can do it though I know you can! Your gonna kick it into gear and burn those pounds right off.

Sounds like those home improvements are keeping you busy! I bet you will see a loss on the scales tomorrow just from the work you've been doing in the house!

Have a good day! Good luck on your weigh in!

 

[kmp1191]

I had to get out of the house earlier than normal this morning....the dust was killing me!! they were jackhammering up the tile from around the fireplace - cough cough cough, sneeze! anyway, i'm so excited!! they are doing the living room today and the kitchen and laundry room tomorrow, then grout on wednesday!!! i wish i didn't have to work today.....i want to watch and take pictures.....(just called hubby...he's going to take some "during" shots for me!)

ok......talked to sis#1 this morning....it's not looking good for me this week!!
sis#1 - -6 !! yes, she lost 6 lbs......but remember, she hasn't weighted in what.....3 weeks?! i guess her new batteries are working pretty good for her!

sis#2 - reprieve - she's at WDW!!! (insert foul word here____________ rhymes w/ pitch)
sis#3 - me......+1 160 - i have no one to blame but my hubby!! if he hadn't gone out of town, then i would have worked out and lost instead of gained.....right.....c'mon, you guys know it's true!! ok, ok.....play time is over!! (again)


Ok....didn't go walking this morning....tile guy was coming earlier than i thought. I will make up for it tonight....going to take ds to the mall and make him walk w/ me!!
I also went to Sams first thing this morning and bought a case of water to keep at my desk. Double my intake!!
I lost the little notebook that i had all my info in!! beginning weights and food intake....i'm so mad! i HAVE to find it!! wish me luck finding anything in my house right now!

ok....gotta get to work!! have a good one taters!

Your workout plan looks great this week! You can stick to it. Just think of your sister's -6lbs and that will be some extra motivation...

I know you'll be able to avoid the candy at work this week. That is my goal as well - NO CANDY AT WORK!

Drinking all that extra water will help flush out all the yuckies too. Do you not like diet soda? That way you could indulge a little without all the added calories...

Yeah, my sister's big loss really shocked me! but again, it's been 3 weeks since she weighed. I'm really going to hit it hard and heavy this week...i have to!
I don't like the diet soda's....and i'm really not supposed to have the caffine either. root beer and creme soda are about all i can handle that's not actually Coke. I have drank/drunk (?) the caffine free coke, and it was ok...i'd just rather drink water w/ lemon. (I also LOVE sweet tea, but the sugar kills me!)

the whoppers are over there....watching me...... i'm ignoring them!
