    I LOST A POUND!!! This is amazing to me because of how yucky physically I've been feeling, not exercising, and not logging food (although not necessarily eating bad). Of course, I weighed in after the gym which is usually less. But this was after breakfast and water. I decided to count it as it was motivating and inspiring to keep going forward. Heck, I'd even be happy if it stayed the same next week.

    Time for some personals:
    Lauryn (Phoenix_Rising)....How are you goals going? Haven't seen you post in a couple of days, but I'm guessing life has gotten busy for you like everyone else. I hope you are doing well.

    Cathy(chipper)......................Hello my beautiful lady. Altho the ice cream picture wasn't me, it very well could be some days. I hope your world is rockin along well. Your daily list of things to do tire me out, and inspire me. Keep it up.

    Amy S (bahamom87)..........How are you feeling these days? You aren't posting as much. I'm hoping it's just because you are chasing your little one around. We miss you!

    Kristin (kistinbee).................Hope the weather has cleared up for you. Graduation time and end of school year parties can mess with any diet. The good news is that it happens in the summertime so we can get out and work those extra yummy calories off.

    Tracy ( frogy_98) ................. So sorry to hear about your friend's family situation. I think there is no worse fear than a parent having a sick child. I hope they find the right doctor who can find an easy and safe diagnosis and she has a quick recovery.

    Kel (redneckwoman)..........Great job on the weight loss!!! Awesome.

    B (its_B).................................Did you make it back home? Are you safe? Can't wait to hear how your like-life is going.

    Tiff (gonabfit).........................It's great to have a job where you can be active, even if it is walking. Neat idea, calculating your steps. Your endurance is probably putting every one else to shame.

    Tamm...................................Hope you are doing well. Thanks for keeping in touch and updating us on your world.

    Amy (amypyr), Sandy (izzypup), Jennifer (candycaneps), AmyLou (amylou24), Rhiannon (PedalHound).....
    Miss you guys and hope you are doing well.

    AFM:
    Well, I decided to keep it real and step on the scale this morning as I felt like I got a "false positive" weighing in after the gym yesterday. Lo and behold, i was 141.4 lb :noway: :noway: :noway: half a lb less than my weigh in yesterday. Little happy dance. I honestly think it's the Wellbutrin. Altho I have to keep my edginess in check, I have had more consistent energy rather than lows and highs, and have been eating 3 healthy meals a day without any need for snacking. Oh yeah, also cut down severely on my coffee intake. I'm sure once it gets in my system completely, everything will level out. But altho I had massive cramps yesterday, I seem to be having "normal" pre TOM symptoms rather than anything dramatic. Maybe my hubby was right and it is somewhat psychosomatic? We will see. Whatever it is, I'll take it happily.

    My DH also bought me seven CASES of water to keep me in good supply so I have no excuses. He's so awesome!!!

    Well, now that you guys have distracted me enough, :wink: , time to get back to work. Hope to hear from you all soon during this busy season of fun in the sun.

    grouphugg.gif For all my sixers who make this journey possible! (man those pills are working)

    Good morning!

    Well...I blew it on calories last night! BUMMER! Michael wanted pizza and I totally over did it! But I did get in a run with Kadence, so I won't beat myself up too much! Today will be better!

    No time to post much now...another busy day and I'm taking tomorrow off, so you may not see much of me until next Monday! Hope you are all doing great! And let's all have a FABULOUS weekend!!!

    Lula- YEAH I am doing a happy dance for your!!! Keep up the great work!

    Cathy - Hope you have a great day and nice start with going to the gym!

    Kristin - No worries at least you got a run in, we all need those nights and it is really hard with a husband and kid to not have a night like that. Just remember today is a new day!

    AFM: Today is starting on a high note, I have been really good for two days now with both calories and excersice so I am proud of myself, plus my calories have been healthy calories for the most part. I want to continue the work today, so I am going to make sure and hit the store for some more healthy snacks. Plus anytime I am wanting something to do while watching T.V. I remind myself to get up and pack a box instead of eat something. I am really bad about mindless eating while watching T.V. This is a habit I am trying to break, plus the urge to reach for something sweet to finish off a meal. Those are my two major down falls with food.

    Well enough about that hope to have a busy day, the speech therapist gave us lots to work on with Abby and we are hoping the rain will go away so we can get outside and run some errands.

    Will check back later, have a great day sixers :flowerforyou:

    Cathy, thank you so much for posting me in the updated weight section!!!

    I was out of town for business. I'm back in today, and weighed in at 157!!!!! SUPER DUPER YAY!!! Gotta keep up this momentum.

    I don't have time for personals, trying to catch up with work, but I'll be back on later tonight or tomorrow to catch up. Hope you all are having fantastic days!!!!

    Whoo hoo!!! Finally a loss!!! It's not much, but considering I haven't been doing well on watching what I eat, I'm happy with it!

    I also ran a quarter of a mile nonstop 2 days in a row!!! And I think I have a new addiction. At least it's a good one! Running in light rain. It rained here a lot last week, and I was loving the running!!

    Things have been extremely busy here. Today is the kids' last day of school. I can't believe that this afternoon, I will have a rising 1st grader and a rising 2nd grader! :sad:

    went to the gym. a nice workout.

    feeling really bloated and puffy today. had a bunch of cookies last night. that could be why. haven't had that much crap in awhile. even my sugars were high this morning. pushing the water. need to make a good bathroom stop (might have to take something).

    ate this afternoon, than stopped myself. pigged out on watermelon, now feeling really crappy.

    need to find something to do to work this through.

    Looking forward to tonight, already have dinner planned so I will stay on track, plus checking out if there is anything with lower calories at Dairy Queen because my husband mentioned stopping there tonight so we will see.... I have been so good for two days that I know I will need some real will power.

    But I still am planning on going to the gym tonight so that will be my motivation to not screw it up.

    Well gotta get the potatos in the oven for tonight, we are having grilled chicken, baked potato, salad and green beans.

    Then we are off to get dd hair cut and then to the library to pick up some new books, plus gotta get home to pack some boxes, moving date is coming up on us fast. We move the 26th yikes!

    Have a great evening.

    hello

    don't know whats on the calendar for today. i had mentioned to son about the trailer. at least go out and check on it. i have decided it's his thing not mine. and he can take care of what needs to be done. he gets paid next week (hopefully). i don't want the pressure on me. he will turn it around and say "i didn't know this (or that). it's his thing. to claim innocent. it's common sense. any way.

    meeting with manager today to get a HUD key to see a house tomorrow for my client. running lots of errands this weekend. the scale is not so nice. DH was weighing himself last night he thought i was just standing behind him to see what it said. he didn't see me put my toe and press down. it was like 205. he jumps off and starts yelling. than he said you did that. got back on and it was 191. i laughed so hard.

    well, better go see what up for today so i can get in some sort of exercise.

    later

    hey sixers! Happy friday! 4 more days until my iron infusion....I have high hopes.

    Seems to have slowed down considerably with everyone....hope you all find your way back!

    well, sure enough we get to his trailer and there is "the notice" has 10 days to vacate. it was dated the 2nd of june. so by tomorrow. he has no money for a truck, he called the courts they said he had to make arrangement with the landlord. he called her, she was pissy about it. he will be out by end of next week. he gets paid monday. we were just out there a week ago. he should get more days anyway. still haven't gotten word if landlord is giving him the time.

    back later.

    Cathy - Sorry to hear about your stressful day, I hope everything works out and hopefully your son can take this as a lesson in life.... It will get better in time, hang in there.

    AFM: Today was my splurge day for the weekend even though it is friday, and boy did I splurge lets just say I think I will be hitting the gym a little harder tomorrow. But I did enjoy the food at the time but realize tonight that I feel like a rock is sitting in my stomach from eating to much and not drinking enough water. BUT tomorrow is a new day and a new set of calories!!!!

    So should be a busy day tomorrow, gym in the morning the grocery shopping and then back home, I am sure people think I am beautiful once I hit the store after a workout but it is the easiest time to go since I wont have Abby with me she will be home with dad.

    Well better run.

    HAVE A GREAT WEEKEND!!!!

    Cathy - You are an awesome mom. Take care of you too. I don't want the stress to get to you and throw all your internal chemicals out of whack. Lots of hugs to you and yours.

    Tracy - Everyone needs a splurge every now and again. Once, it helps us to appreciate the days we do so well. And I hear it confuses your body and gives it a kick start the following week. Exercising the next day is always good too :)

    pdxmom2 - I hope the iron infusion really works for you. It's amazing that when our body is missing something, it makes all the difference in the world. Let us know how it goes for you.

    B - Great to hear from you. Glad your brother's graduation and trip home went well for you. Don't forget we are going to want a white bathing suit update sometime this summer. I know you are doing great. Always know I'm missing ya and thinking about ya. We are here when you want us :wink:

    AFM
    Speaking of bathing suits: Okay, so I tend to not do a lot of strength training. Didn't want bulky muscles. But about three months ago I started working on my upper body because my husband suggested it, simply doing push up, planks, and weights I have at home. Took pictures of my back the other day and I was actually impress. Figured I do a lot of lower body cardio at the gym.

    Well, yesterday I saw a picture my husband had taken of my backside in a bathing suit last week. All I can say it :sad: :sad: :sad: :sad: :sad: :sad: :sad: :sad: :sad: :sad: :sad: :sad: It was horrible. So much cottage cheese and dimples (and not the cute kind). I begged him to erase it.

    So this morning I did some research. Guess what helps cellulite? Yup, strength training. So I guess I'm going to be building up those muscles. There's no "cure" for cottage cheese, but water intake and strength training is supposed to help it. So I'm going to have him keep that picture and take another one at the end of this challenge and see what becomes of it. But YUCK.

    Have a great weekend my lovely ladies. Keep moving!!!

    Lorna - It is amazing how great you feel once you add in strength training as well, I know I am just getting a start at this but I really like my days when I do circut weight training at the gym, it is a 30 minute cycle that includes cardio between each machine. Good luck on your strength training you will enjoy it after the soreness wears off.

    AFM: Today is going well went to the gym this morning and got my work out in, now I will be off to the store and then work at 4, that will be my challenge since I work at Mrs. Fields cookies, but I am going to try and do good, so that way I stay on track for the weekend.

    Well better go will check back in later.

    Good morning my lovely ladies,

    Tomorrow is "supposed" to start my TOM. I have just a few cramps, nothing unmanageable, but I am extremely tired and ended up eating like 3 huge spoonful of PB after dinner last night, so I'm guessing I've got the munchies. But then I made my family go on a walk with me so they could get ice cream. I refrained other than a taste. But today, I need to get back to focusing. I tend to sabotage at this point my hard work and the weigh-in will reflect it. But not this time. I AM IN CONTROL!!! 3239_Strong%20smiley.jpg

    I hope you guys are having a fabulous weekend. I get my kids two nights in a row, so I am extremely excited (albeit tired). Talk to you guys tomorrow.
  • chipper15173
    chipper15173 Posts: 3,981 Member
    yea for just taste of ice cream. i am with you on a point where you just sabotage everything. i have been like that since i weighed in on tues. i am hoping for just a stand still. scale showed a slight gain this morning. not very busy day today. so hope to get the small little things done. so far so good. it's already super hot out. shooting for the 100's again, 105+ heat index. the one thing i don't like about the south.

    off to play a bit than back at it.

    morning...

    sorta bummed. don't know what the scale will say tomorrow. just a not so good week. it goes with life, so i have to move on and not be hard on myself.

    nothing much new here for the week. i really want to start a class tonight, but, didn't budget the money. so will have to take it in oct. just will have to drive way farther. might be another closer location.
    should hope to move son tomorrow. be glad when that's off my shoulders. i have to stop putting others problems on my shoulders. it weighs me down.

    need to get the housework started.

    later

    Good morning all!

    Yet another no-so-great-food-wise weekend. Bummer. Moving on.

    Did get in a run last night...felt great! I always feel so good after I run...just need to remember that! Need to really focus on my food intake...I've been SO bad lately! I know that is what is keeping my weightloss at a standstill. I have been between 174 and 176 for FOREVER now!! Need to break past that!! 160s--WHERE ARE YOU?!?!?! SO...need to regain focus. Need to have self-control. Need to do this!!!! It starts NOW.

    Plan for today:
    B-Multigrain cheerios, 1/2 c. skim milk, 2 c. coffee, 4 tbsp. sugar-free creamer
    S-trail mix bar, banana
    L-2 sl. light whole wheat bread, 1 oz. cheese, 4 sl. turkey, lettuce, drizzle of honey mustard, baby carrots, light yogurt
    S-golden delicious apple
    D-Chicken, green salad, spritzer dressing, la choy chow mein noodles...to add a little crunchy!
    S-Canteloupe, sugar-free popsicle

    Exercise:
    Hopefully a run...it supposed to rain...again...

    Goal for today: No straying from my meal plan!!!

    Have a good morning ladies!

    SO...I put into my food diary and I need to add something to dinner...it's just simply not enough calories and I will be hungry. Maybe a baked red potato. Or some other kind of starch. And maybe some more veggies. I will think about it and re-adjust.
