Teresa's WISH Jouranl (Comments Welcomed)

Tera, first I want to say that new clippie looks mahvelous on you dahling! You wear it well! :cool1:

I'm sorry you had a little gain this week but that's just itty bitty, it'll be gone tomorrow probably! :teeth:

Don't watch the Biggest Loser tonight! :mad:
 
Hi Michelle - Glad to see you hon :D Thanks for the support and I'm over it now. I'll just work hard this week, eat much better and drink LOTS of water.

Watching Biggest Loser now... I'm assume Mo is going home?? We're going back and forth between that and Earthsea (on Sci fi)
 
How is Legend of Earthsea? I was going to watch it but didn't. It looked like a show I would enjoy. I'm sure they will show it again though. That's the great thing about cable. You miss a show the first time around they will show it again 50 more times before the year is out. :teeth:

No comment on BL. :mad:
 
It's pretty good. Kids seem to enjoy it too.

It's gotta be Mo. Tell me!!!!!!!!
 

They freaking voted off Lisa! Not that I'm a huge fan of Lisa's whiny attitude but good grief! They are going to freaking hand the game to Mo on a silver platter by continuing to keep him around. It's irritating the heck out of me to see him still there week after week. If he wins he deserves it because of the stupidity of the other players. I can't stand Ryan, I haven't liked him since the way he voted Lizzeth off, how nasty he was about it but I was starting to think he was okay until tonight. I really hope Gary and Kelly wise up and that one of them can win this thing.

Strategically, the way he voted was the best way, but come on! For once won't someone stick with their 'alliance'? I felt bad for Lisa but she looked SO good in her After pic!
Tera, your thread has become the TV thread again. :rolleyes:

Sorry about that .2 gain this week. Here's hoping for a big Gary style loss next week!! :jumping4: :jumping4: :jumping4: :teeth:
 
Terry - I agree with you. It just would be nice to see people stick together for once, but I guess that would defeat the purpose of the "game".
I never liked Lisa, but she looked really great in her after picture. I'm sure they have to do some kind of reunion show to show people how far they all have come.



Well here's my post for yesterday. Katie walked to school, so I was able to get to the gym by 8:00am. I did about 20 minutes on weights (upper & lower body), 25 minutes on cardio (I wanted to do more, but my sinuses were acting up :earseek: ) 20 minutes on the bike and walked 30 minutes on the treadmill. Just didn't feel like I had given it my all, but maybe that was because of the sinuses. I headed over to Wal-Mart to pick up a few things and then headed to the mall where Katie's choir was performing. We had lunch together first and then they started their performance. I had seen the same performance at the school, so I wasn't planning to stay for the entire thing (was hoping to meet a friend that was visiting for Belgium). I mouthed to Katie I was going to leave and she started to cry. I was able to pull her to the side in between songs and she started to throw a tantrum like she was 3 years old. This is my youngest DD who will be 10 years old in 2 months!!! I couldn't believe how she was behaving. She was grabbing onto my arm, saying she was following me out. She wanted me to take her back to school because she didn't want to ride on the bus with the other kids. Hell, _I_ wouldn't want to ride on the bus with her either. Anyways, I'm finally leaving (15 minutes later and she missed 2 of their last songs) and she still thinks she's leaving with me. I told her she was NOT getting into the car with me and by the time she got back, the bus would be gone and she would be stuck (Nice Mother huh? :earseek: ) She finally went with her class as they were leaving. I was SO pissed when I called my DH on the cell phone.

Anyways, made it to the restaurant where I was meeting my neighbor and out of town friend (these are my fantasy football buddies). Had a VERY large beer to help calm me down (I know, I'm a lush). Enjoyed talking football and Fritz's life in Belgium with their 3 kids (triplets) Got home around 4:00pm and was VERY tired (and still in my workout clothes :earseek: )
My poor DH has been trying to get lucky for the past couple of days and I've been too tired (I know, TMI). Today is the kids last day of school, so I might slept in an extra hour tomorrow, but still get up for the gym. I have Happy Hour here tomorrow night and my house is a mess. The kids already know they need to help, and since Katie has been grounded for the rest of the week, she will be doing most of the work.

That's about it for now (thank GOD!) This morning I'm off to the gym, coming home and starting on the house (run vaccum, clean bathrooms) Heading up to the school for Katie's classroom party (the one I'm coordinating). I'll update my journal later this evening.......
 
:faint: Tera,

Do you ever rest? Looks like you have a ton on your schedule today. I'm sending :wizard: to help.

I think you handled the situation with DD well. Don't beat yourself up about it. You can also tell DH that he isn't the only one not getting any lately. :blush:

Have a good one,
Beth
 
Hi Teresa

Your gym workouts sounds alot like mine! I hope your DD gets over the emotional stuff. My DD is an emotional roller coaster. She's now 15, I keep wondering when it will even out!!!!!!

Sundie
 
Thanks Beth - I'm making my DD write an apology letter to her choir teacher for her behavior. I don't know what the deal is with her and it scares me that she'll be worse when PMS hits :earseek: :earseek: :earseek:

Hi Sundie - My workouts have been good so far, but I wish I would see results quicker. I know I know... it takes time, but I want it NOW :earboy2: I don't think kids, especially girls grow out of it till they have their OWN children. My mother always said my kids would grow up to be like me. There is NO WAY I was like this as a kid :rolleyes: :rolleyes:



Kids are now on Christmas break and I let my self sleep in an extra hour before heading to the gym (yeah me!) I did 60 minutes elliptical :cool1: and 40 minutes on the treadmill. I need those extra AP points for tonight. Neighbors are coming over (hence cleaning house like a mad woman) and we're driving around our subdivision singing Christmas carols (or attempting). The kids seem to have a good time. Might even do a little karaoking tonight :earboy2:
 
Well today is the DAY AFTER our Happy Hour party. Not sure I did so well.... Got the house all cleaned, candles all lit and made my first drink around 4:00pm. I had been munching on meatballs throughout the day as I was cooking them. Had crackers and chipolte and some shrimp. For dinner I made my spaghetti squash (no sauce), salad and a small slice of garlic bread. I think I did well with dinner since the only points was the bread and little dressing that I put on my salad. I'm more worried about the drinks and the meatballs I had. For dessert I had about 3 cream puffs, another thing I should have stayed away from. Happy Hour was fun... we went caroling for awhile and weather was nice, not too cold. DH made a big fire in back (our new outdoor firepit :D) and the kids had smores. We sat out there till about 10:30 before everyone started heading out. Jessica had her first "official" babysitting gig, so we had to wait up for her. Was able to get everything cleaned before heading to bed. It's nice to wake up to a clean house, especially when you spent so much time cleaning it.

Today I will drink LOTS of water, I will have my veggie soup for lunch and probably again for dinner. DH bought dounuts for the kids (yeah right :earseek: ), so staying away from those is my GOAL. Need to be really really good the next few days so I can have a good weight in on Tuesday. I don't think I will get my 3 pounds, but hopefully half. Still want to be down 4 total by the end of the year.....
 
Hey Tera...sounds like you had quite a busy day yesterday huh? It's so hard not to snack when you are cooking isn't it ? Don't worry too much, I'm sure all the running around you did yesterday will work off some of those meatball snacks!!

Hey, question for ya...how is spaghetti squash? I've heard it talked about all over the place and I love pasta ... is it really like pasta?
 
Hi Sunkissed - I'm not going to worry too much about it. Sucking down water as I type this out :earboy2:

I loved the spaghetti squash, but no, I didn't think it was anything like the real thing. Of course, I didn't have it with sauce and I hear that makes a difference. I really enjoyed it though and it might be worth trying.
 
Wow Teresa you do fun things! What a challenge to the WW plan, but it sounds like you handled it well and will have good results at WI! Keep the H20 flowing :)

Sundie
 
But, I've never had it with sauce. We just toss it with a bit of margarine and pepper! Yummy!

Sounds like things have been crazy for you! Funny, sometimes I wish the holiday season over, but it's supposed to be the best time of the year?!?!?!
 
Thanks Sundie! I've had so much water this weekend, there should be no excuse not to have some kind of loss :rolleyes:

Jaynee - I haven't tried it with the sauce either, but I've heard it was good. I was going to spray my soy butter on it, but it really didn't need anything. Really good flavor :earboy2: I know what you mean about the holiday season being over. I'm guess it's because I am trying to lose weight and it's harder this time of year, plus we go on our first Disney cruise in May and I want the time to go by FASTER :teleport:


Well obviously no exercise today (Football!!!!) . I think I've done okay with eating and better with water. REALLY trying to suck it down today. Had cereal this morning and veggie soup for lunch with bread. Had some low calorie chips ahoy for desserts and I'm half way through my 2nd 32 ounce bottle of water. Should drink over 100 ounces again. Tomorrow I will set the alarm early and go to the gym. Plan on doing weights and some cardio. Not sure I'll go to the gym Tuesday morning, but will go to WW for my weight in. I went to the mall with a friend yesterday and wanted to try pants on so bad, but I want to wait until after the first of the year. My in-laws sent gift certificates for the holidays, but want to use those for new summer clothes. Probably will go to this consignment store close to our house and pick up a few pairs of pants there to get me through. Just want to get comfortably into size 14's (would really like them big though :earboy2: ) Still shooting for my 4 pound total by the end of the year which will put me at below 180 and a total of 30 pounds gone. TOM is coming soon and I'm feeling FAT, so I'm hoping with drinking lots of water, I won't gain.

Off to watch more football :earboy2:
 
Sending some :wizard: for a great weigh in tomorrow!!!

I will 'see' you tomorrow night after the Biggest Loser Finale!
 
Hi There,

I hope I am not to late to send some:wizard: for weighin. Great job getting all that water in. I'm also sending :wizard: to help get you through DZONE.

Have a good one,
Beth
 
Thanks for the :wizard: It definitely helped!!!

I lost 3.4 pounds today for a total of 29.6 pounds!!! I was VERY excited, okay, maybe not just excited, but THRILLED. I'm almost to my 30 pound clippie (next week hopefully) I think drinking all that water this weekend helped out so much. Oh, I'm so stinkin' happy today :cool1: :cool1:



Terry - Unfortuntely I won't be watching The Biggest Loser tonight. Going out with DH tonight. You guys will have to give me details and I'll have to check their website for pictures :flower:
 
Hi:)

Just had to pop in and CONGRATULATE you on your journal thread as well as the WW Weekly WI thread. WEIGH TO GO!!!!!!!

I'll be looking for that shiney new clippie next week !!!!!!

Sundie
