Sister Challenge - moved to New Years Resolution in July

[kimwim8]

oh....need some pixie dust for DD6-she came home from school today not feeling well...threw up 3 times and was in bed asleep by 7:30. She'll be home with daddy tomorrow.

awwwwww, poor DD! I hope she's feeling better today.

And, yes, it's ok to not diet on your birthday. It's an unwritten rule.

Happy birthday again...sounds like you had a great day!

 

[lovinaz]

I agree with Kim, it's your birthday and you are allowed to splurge. Just get back on track today and no harm done!

I hope your DD is feeling better. Fortunately those stomach bugs only last 24 hours or so. My DS9 used to be a champion barfer. Luckily he's pretty much grown out of that...

I will be sure to post some pictures from the cruise - if I'm brave I might even include a picture of myself!

Thanks girls! Man, I re-read my post from yesterday....what a psycho-downer!! I'm better today though! Really overdid it on the calorie intake yesterday, but I"m back on track today! Did 40 minutes w/ Bob this morning and had peanut butter & banana toast for b-fast!

The rest of the day is looking good!!

Thanks for the for DD6-she's home w/ daddy today...still running a little fever, but not throwing up anymore....thank goodness!! Also, thanks for the b-day wishes...it really was a special day!!

Will update the intake later!! Thanks for letting me have my diet free b-day....I was REALLY feeling guilty this morning!

I am going to take the kids to Lowes to pick out paint for the bathrooms, then to the mall for jeans shopping (DS) and then to Chili's for dinner and off to the hotel for the night....(both bathrooms will be out of service because of the tile and we can't walk on it for 24 hrs!) I will get a salad for dinner tonight otherwise I'll definately show a gain...i'm also worried because I haven't run since tuesday....I'm trying to stay focused....just a lot going on around here.....


later taters!

[kimwim8]

Hey Marie! I think it's ok you ate bad, as long as you just jump back on track!

Let us know how the weigh in went!

 

[kmp1191]

Taxes - done
Tile - done
Diet-back on track!!

I hate Mondays!! Especially now that it's Weigh & Pay day! Well, the pool is up to $60.00, but it doesn't look like I'm going to be winning it anytime soon!!
I'm up 2 lbs!! I knew I would be and I have no one to blame but myself...(and my mother....she gave birth to me, and therefore I had to eat birthday cake...and everything else within striking distance!!) LOL

OK...
Sis #1 - nothing yet....says she bought a new scale and hasn't opended it yet.....
Sis#2 - -2 181.6 - she is doing great!!
Sis #3 - +2 - no need to discuss....I WILL OVERCOME!!

Yesterday, oh heck...all weekend was a total bust!
Sunday b- bagel w/ cream cheese & 8 oz orange juice
l-tostidos and cheese dip
s-7or8 peanut M&M's
d-nothing-tied up w/ taxes
s-b-day cake - it's gone now....never to threaten me again!!
water intake-24 oz...maybe???
exercise-cleaned house,vacuumed,jumped on trampoline....darn near killed me...ok...so no exercise...
resisted-nothing....but that's the last time for that!!

OK....I'm tired of my clothes not fitting...it's Spring and I want to look decent in shorts....time to get my fat butt in gear and KEEP IT IN GEAR!! NO MORE SLACKING!!

 

[Foxfiregrrl]

Ok, so you had a bad weekend. That is that, now it is time o pick yourself up and get back on track! You can do it!

I think that once you have a little bit of some yummy diet-busting snack (like ice cream cake) then it is ten times harder to resist it. So you eat more of it than you wanted to and then when it is gone you get to sigh in relief!

Congrats on the tile and the taxes! Have a great day and get that exercise in!

[goldcupmom]

You're doing it, Marie!

One step at a time.

Hang in there and it WILL happen.
Just be patient with yourself!

 

[kmp1191]

Just be patient with yourself!

See...that's the hard part!! I did something I shouldn't have done this morning.....I weighed myself. I know I'm only supposed to weigh on Monday, but I just wanted to see if anything had changed....well...it had.
Monday I was at 164 and today I'm at 161. I'm not counting it, but it felt pretty good. It made me want to go running this morning, but I had to get ready for work. I was feeling pretty lazy this morning and did a modified Bob workout...mostly arms w/ weights and leg lifts.

I WANT THAT 5 POUND LOSS CLIPPIE!!
ok...had to get that out of my system.
Thanks Goldcupmom!! The encouragement keeps me in line!
gotta get back to work....
later taters!

IMHO, it's ok to check up on the scale in between weigh-ins. Just try not to count on that number too much. I know it's hard & I do it to myself too. I love when I creep down a little bit, but then I get upset if that loss isn't still there on weigh in day.

Anyway...I'm proud of you for jumping back on the wagon after your birthday celebration. That's hard to do! I admire how much exercise you get in too. Walk, DVD & running...WOW!!!

 

[kmp1191]

Thanks Kim...last night's run/walk was really hard. I told DH that we're not taking that much time off again. It's like starting all over again. I ran 3/4 of the mile instead of the full mile....aarrgghhh....my legs were jello!! Tonight will be better. Plus I think I'm gonna do the DVD again tonight...I'd like to try Bob's Boot Camp Workout...i'll let you know if I survive it!!
(ya know, I would LOVE to go on the Biggest Loser....just to be able to work out and eat right for at least a week!! no interruptions, no cheating, NOTHING to get in the way! oh well.)

 

[kmp1191]
