hey everyone
My computer is up and finally running. I will get to reading all the post tomorrow. Just wanted to pop in and say hi!
gonna go chill with the family.
Have a great night!0 -
Julie!! I love seeing the ultrasound pics!! How extremely exciting for you.
Did an hour of hot yoga today - hooray! But dang, it for sure kicked my butt! The instructor was tough and it didn't help that I haven't been to class in about a month! Oh well...good to be back.
Jonathan is brewing (yup, again...but it 's a small batch....) so I don't have access to the kitchen for awhile, but I think it's going to be a left-over night. I'll check in at the end of the day when I'm all logged in.
Hooray for those of you that ventured out to the gym and fought the masses!0 -
checking in
calories - about 100 under
water - 64 oz
exercise - 25 min Slim in 6 video, and then 30 mins of cleaning the house well my heartrate was still up
proud - got an exercise video done even with my girls both home today. I had them doing it with me for the first little bit. LOL0 -
I'm so happy to see so many people back here! :flowerforyou:
I'm up 10 pounds (actually, 15 pounds from lowest -- OMG, I can't even blame baby for that one... stupid holidays).
I have a different kind of progress pic to share. :bigsmile:
Baby was wiggling around like a crazy person this morning. So fun to see.
Heartbeat was 164bpm today so still pointing toward girl according to that old wives' tale. 
But from what I read, research shows there's actually no correlation between heart rate and gender. 
Anyway, since I waited so long to have my first OB appointment, I have another one this Thursday! I also found out my OB offers sexing scans at 15 weeks for just $75 so I'm going to try to schedule one of those asap. I can't believe I may know the baby's sex in just 3 weeks! :happy:
I'm ready to get back to eating healthy & exercising. I haven't been too out of control with my eating but the no exercise thing really seems to be taking it's toll now.
Julie, I love seeing the ulrasound pics. Can't wait till you find out what it's going to be!!0 -
So Today was quite trying. The car ended up costing us over 700 to get fixed. :sad: :frown: :sad: :mad: :explode: :sick:

NOT THIS TIME! :noway: I have not weighed myself yet, but let's just say I look like a stuffed sausage in my new 3x's!!! :grumble: Ah well, life goes on. I did pretty good today and that's all that counts. Onward and upward!!! :drinker:

proud: I made it through the day even with the mainstream pressure!0 -
Good morning ladies. I did so good yesterday up until after dinner and I started to snack. I haven't logged that yet. I kinda munched on everything. So I'm sure I'm over my calories with exercise. :grumble: :explode:
The scale wasn't as kind as I was hoping this morning. I was gonna try and stay off of it but I couldn't. I'm .4 up from yesterday. I know that's normal seeing as I had a pretty great workout last night. Must give it time. Must give it time. STAY OFF THE SCALE JESSICA!!! :grumble:
Happy Tuesday sisters! :flowerforyou:
Calories: Pretty sure I ate them all. First day back is always rough.
Water: 9 Cups
Exercise: 35 minutes of interval running at the gym. Burned 332 calories
Proud: I went to the gym even though it was packed to the brim. Were talking probably 60 piece of cardio equipment that were almost ALL taken.0 -
Happy Tuesday, ladies!
Had a pretty successful day yesterday, I got everything checked off of my list of things to do taken care of! I'm still trying to figure out financial aid stuff for school... I'm getting a little worried that I may have to wait 'till fall to take classes again
Momma - So sorry to hear about your car! But congratulations on not taking out your frustration on food! :flowerforyou:
Meokk - I'm REALLY excited about the built-in exercise with the puppy. We have a great dog beach pretty close to the house.
Heather - Yay for the ! That's such a build you up/tear you down subject... I'm glad to hear it's going well (Once upon a time a boy I said that to (stupidly) said "Wow... I bet that was hard for you to say". Um... thanks? hahaha Glad I found The good One instead!
Cris - YAY! Good to see you back!
Checking in for yesterday -
Calories - under!
Water - under... must drink more today.
Exercise - Done! Feelin' good
Proud - Staying focused. Trip to the grocery store was peppered with a bit of anxiety, but I definitely feel better than usual.0 -
good morning gals
1St CHeck in from yesterday
calories - was about 1500 calories , ate about 1/2 of my exericse calories, so had around 200 left
Water - 3 cups, not so good
exercise - 50 min arc trainer - 453 cals burned.
Proud - i am getting back on the wagon.
TMI finally arrived today i have been horrible the last couple days like mega pms so glad it is here get this over with...i am hoping this is contribute to my bloat too
So i had to take abby to the dr this morning for her 6 mo checkup for her ears, of course all was fine and like 10 minutes ..then was figthing with the office over if i had to pay deductible. My insurance is stupid and they have me messed up in the online system so it always says i have deductible for specialist but i don't..so finally the lady just charged me the co-insurance and said i may get a statement later.
THen i go to take abby to day care and she is clinging to me would not let me leave, i was there for probably 10-15 minutes and finally one of the office staff had to take her and she was screaming when i left, she would not let me go. DH usally takes her and most of the time she doesn't have a problem i know a few times when she wasn't feeling the best she was clingy but i don't think like this, this is why i don't like taking her , just picking her up ...
So now starting my day...debating since i was late if i should workout at lunch. I probably will though, anyway..0 -

I still think it's so great so many people are back here. :happy:
For the first time in a long time, I have logged all of my food for the day and I'm going to stick with the plan.
I'm back at work today (boo) & planned to tell my supervisor I'm expecting but she walked in & immediately walked back out because she left her laptop at home. The suspense is killing me! I wanted to tell her first thing & get it over with. :ohwell:
Blue -- Dh is pushing Skeletor as a name. Skeletor & Gargamel. :laugh: Congrats on that well-deserved nom!
Momma -- Paying that much for car repairs really stinks. :frown:
Jess -- I'll stay off the scale if you will!0 -
Anybody have any good suggestions for quick easy breakfast foods? I'm not a big fan of breakfast. I need something quick and easy.
Momma-So sorry to hear about your car. I'm really glad you didn't resort to emotional eating. I think we all do it to an extent. Some more then others. Way to stick through it.
tstout-What a precious looking puppy!! He is absolutely adorable!
meokk-You look absolutely beautiful in your dress!! Stunning!
blue-congrats on your nomination! That's amazing! I wanna hear the story! I wanna hear it!
Julie-Deal! I have to stay off the scale for a few days. If it doesn't move I'm going to get depressed! Here's to staying off the scale till Friday for me. I'm going to need to give it to my Mom to hide from me.
Cris-Yay for dropping 5 pounds!!!0 -
I couldn't get into it last season but this season looks promising! I'm excited!Ok just one more post and Ill be done.....BIGGEST LOSER SEASON 11 TONIGHT!!!! DONT FORGET!!! IM SO EXCITED I LOVE USING IT AS MOTIVATION!!!0 -
Cris - I am soo glad to see your face here WTG on the running last night...you will get back in it
Jess - I am soo addicted to the scale, DH says he is going to hide it from me till friday. BUt i got on this morning and down .9 lbs from last friday so i was excited about that...4 more lbs to go "re" get out of these 250's..
Julie - I hope she gets back soon I know you are dying to tell her.
Nancy - I AM SOOOO freaking happy to see you again I missed ya.
I am soo excited for BIggest Looser too!!! I love it. I am soo glad it is on again so soon. I really think they put it on in january to help motiviate people after the 1st of the year !! the last season i wasn't doing much , so eating candy and pizza while they work out i felt guilty 0 -

Me neither but for me it was because I stopped working out and eating well through most of it and it just made me depressed watching them do it knowing I could too but I chose not to...I really liked Patrcik, I love me some country boys heeh Im glad he won0 -

Thanks Deb I missed you all too but I kept up with most of you on FB! At least I knew what u were up to most of the time! The way you explained why the last season wasnt as great is exactly what I meant....thanks for wording it better 0 -
Jess- I eat bagelfuls (its like a bagel stuffed with a bit of cream cheese- 200 cals but not filling), Cereal bars, drink a slim fast, or have a jimmy d-light sandwich....most of that stuff is stuff that I would eat the fatty version of for bfast so eating the "healthier" version of it helps me not feel as deprived! For example I looooove bagels wit cream cheese. The bagelfuls are a tiny version of it but its not as bad because its so much smaller. The jimmy d-lights sandwiches is a knock off of my favorite..the McD's bacon egg and cheese on a (you got it) bagel. I swear I ate that for breakfast almost everyday. The jimmy dlights are 230 calories and are a honeywheat muffin with egg whites cheese and canadian bacon....I call it a win!0

ok so im post happy.....trying to avoid my work0
-
Meokk = gorgeous!
Cris, I'm so happy you're back and post happy.
Jess, I'm a huge fan of instant oatmeal. I keep it at my desk at work, add some hot water and I'm good to go. Pair this w/a banana and you've got a filling breakfast for about 250 cals.
Nancy, I think you just need a mass PM to share your awesomeness!
Julie, can't wait to hear how your supervisor reacts!
Tstout , congrats on the newest member of your family. Adorable!
To all my weight-loss sisters - STEP AWAY FROM THE SCALES!! :bigsmile:0 -
cris - I still watched it every week and got into it, i liked it but this season i am going to be right there with them...curious to see since i am starting with them all when it is over how much i really lost in the same time they did, yeah i know it won't be a fraction since i don't workout at the gym like 6 hrs a day and have a trainer yelling at me all day, but still
Jess - I have pb and bagel thins everday. If you like bagels , these bagel thins are reptty good, They are only like 110 calories each pretty much just alot of the bulk of bagels i think they are yummy...That is what i eat every day.0 -

I tried the smart ones english muffin breakfast thing a few weeks ago. It was awful! Tasted like cardboard. Maybe I'll give the Jimmy Dean D-Lights a try. I stopped and got a subway english muffin this morning. I do love me an english muffin!0 -
Great breakfast suggestions! Thanks ladies!! I did the chocolate pb and sugar free strawberry preserves on toast for a few days. That was pretty delicious. I just get bored with breakfast food and need a constant change. I like these ideas!
I called my Mom at home and told her where my scale was and told her to hide it from me. She laughed at me. I told her to keep it hidden until Thursday Night/Friday morning. I wont get on the scale at the gym because I know it's different. :bigsmile:0 -
Ladies, I'm SO happy everyone is back and posting like crazy!
Momma: Sorry to hear your car cost so much to fix. I had to put two new tires on mine Friday and hated even spending the $235 for that! What was wrong with your car?
Jess: I hear you on both the scale problem and the breakfast problem. I was doing a strawberry/banana strawberry shake every day for a while, but I got bored and now I've been eating granola bars, which aren't the best option but it's something different. I don't like a lot of b-fast foods, so that doesn't help either.
Cris: Glad to see you re-started C25k. I'm thinking about doing the same, with strength training on non-running days. I have to decide how committed I can be to both and put down some goals and a plan. Thanks for the reminder on BL, too. I watched Glee on Tuesdays during the last season of BL, but that has been reruns lately, so I might be going back to BL.
Nancy: I'd love to hear the details of your story as well!
Checking in for yesterday:
Points (instead of calories): Over! The positive is that I didn't blow my whole week's worth of points as I thought, so I can stop worrying for the rest of the week.
Water: 32 oz.
Exercise: None
Proud: I started a journal again with the intent of trying to better track what makes me do well in a day and what sets me off course. Yesterday, it was a mad craving for a hamburger.0 -
