    good mornin ladies

    stupid stupid stupid snow!!!! I really wish it was spring time. I wanna walk to the library and really I cant even drive there the snow is so bad and its just up the street! GRRR I wanna sit at the playground and watch my kids play while reading a good book again!!! I wanna feel more accomplished then I do in the cold weather. i really feel like i cant do anything cuz Im freezing all the time lol Without 50 lbs of flab and insulation Im feeling colder then last year lol.

    I know I kept saying I was gonna get on the bike during the biggest loser but I seriously had to force myself too. I sat in my bed and at some popcorn (had a ton of calories to eat up still) and then get snuggly under the blanket and warm and didnt feel like moving at all. I kept saying "ok Im gonan do it" and just not move. It was bad. So finally 45 minutes into the show I got up and figured I would do 20 minutes and go back to being warm under the covers. Passed up 20 minutes and felt fine, I was still alittle cold but it was ok cuz I was moving and I wasnt even outa breath yet. I really thought I would need to start from square one since its been a while but nope did 40 minutes and coulda done more but it was getting late and I forgot to plug my sons baby monitor on and ith the tv loud and the bike loud I couldnt hear if he was calling for me. Not a bad burn and Im not even sore today. Gonna try to get some more in after lunch maybe, just kinda sucks cuz I hate leaving the kids upstairs. I was gonna move the bike back upstairs but santa (darn him) got my son a tool bench for christmas and well its now where my bike was. Working on moving stuff around to move it to the one wall then getting my bike back up here. we will see.
  • Good morning everyone. I am having a good old fashioned snow day. The hubby is home with me. We got up and I made us french toast for breakfast. Now we are curled up on the couch watching AFV and the snow out our window. We have blizzard conditions. It is 28 degrees and we have 37 mph winds. We have about 2 feet of snow on the ground. I can't even open the back screen door. It is craziness!

    Today's plan is to hang out inside all day. I am going to read, play my video game, browse the web, get an hour workout, and try to make a baby. The trying part is so much fun! I went to the store yesterday and we have plenty of good for us food. I made breakfast so the hubby is going to cook dinner. For lunch we will have a sandwich and for dinner he is going to make grilled chicken with veggies. It is going to be a nice relaxing day.

    DENEEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! - I am beyond happy to see you back! I have missed you my friend. There was no way that I was giving up on you. I know how hard this journey can be and I know how worth it that it is. We are all still here for you. I am glad to see you back and doing this for you. You deserve to be happy. We are here for you. This is your safe haven. You can vent and lean on us all you want. We all need a safe place and someone to turn to. You will tell your husband when you are ready. Your daughters will also appreciate all the work that you put in, especially when you can run and jump with them and do all the fun stuff. You got this my friend.

    Marcie - Is Jillian kicking your butt still?

    Jessica - Awesome job on your bike yesterday. Keep it up. I know your kids come first, but you have to take care of you for them too. We are definitely having fun TTC.

    Jena - I am glad you got a walk in. Are you kicking your butts eliptical? I lost 50 pounds last year. I know you can do it. Keep it up. We will all be losers again!

    Karen - How are the house projects going? Are you finding time for your workouts?

    Kerry - I am glad that you have found us and that announcing your weight was freeing. It is just a number and we can gain control of it. I started at 289 and last Friday I weighed in at 183. My goal weight was 185 and I have been undr it for a few months. Now it is time to get down to my next goal of 160 - 165. I know that all this is possible.

    To everyone else...I hope you all are doing well. Good luck to everyone. Make today a great one!

    bobbie- we have about the same weather here except this is like snow storm 3 for the season for us ugh. we normally get ALOT of snow but this is just insane! Im hoping it means that we will have an early spring instead of snow on easter like most years. Last easter was actually pretty mild compared to other easters. I remember the easter I found out I was pregnant wtih my son we had snow like what you have today but maybe more and DH had shingles and had to take 3 hours to shovel my little car out of the driveway AFTER the snow plow guy plowed the driveway. It was insane.

    Hey Everyone
    I got my sit ups and water in yesterday. My legs were aching yesterday after short leg workout I did the day before, so I gave them a day of rest. I could barelt walk staris. It just shows how quickly I got out of shape :grumble: Anyways they are still sore today but I think I will force some squats out.

    I just wanted to say that reading all these posts are amazing. This group seems so tightknit and there for eachother. Like some of you on here, I won't tell my husband what I weigh. I am afraid he will see the number and not me. To him I am still sexy, attractive and desiralbe and I don't want that to change. So one day I hope to tell him and maybe will tell him what I weighed when I started. The journey may not be easy but with a goup like you guys it will make it more fun!!

    Weatherwise it is snowing again and freezing. It was -36C (-32.6 F) with the windchill this morning and is suppose to stay that cold all day. Does anyone have suggestions for in home cardio without DVD's.

    Thanks everyone, have a fantastic Wednesday
  • I'm still here I haven't posted ir anything since Sunday because I fell and twisted my ankle and sprang my wrist so not doing anything but laying around. I am still trying to get all my water in and stay under my calories but that hasn't happened but haven't been over by 50 calories yet so don't think I will lose any this week hopefuly I don't gain my lb back

    Good Morning!
    Deneen!!!! :heart: :flowerforyou: :love: :bigsmile: Lets get to WORK!! And about NOT telling your husband GOOD! ANd it's OK to have something that's just yours! My husband knows all about MFP whatever, he really has no interest in my online social life! lol BUT on the occasion I start telling him about something going on, on MFP, he has no real interest anyway a lot of uh huhs and ok's so don't feel bad he probably wouldn't care anyway!:tongue:
    Ok real quick I did 60 sit ups last night! Was I dying YES did I want to quit YES Did I do them 10 at a time YES In front of my very fit husband, who could do 60 sit ups for fun :grumble: YUP! BUT Did I FINISH all 60? to qoute a certain political whohaa "You Betcha!!"
    Also got in around 17-20 glasses of H20:drinker: (I start losing count after about 15c.)
    Maybe I should just keep the situps in my daily things to do God knows after 3 C-sections I NEED to work on my abs and after last nights struggle, further lets me know I GOT WORK TO DO!! :blushing:
    One thing for sure I sure the heck don't want to have to "make up" 30 sit ups again!! :tongue:
    Have a great day and DRINK UP!!! :drinker:

    I seem to be hungry all day today. I only have 500 calories left for the day too. :( Bummer.

    Jena - 20 glasses of water! I can't even imagine!

    Bobbie - I'd love to say the home projects are coming along, but they aren't. We have a haze on the new tile and grout that has proven difficult to remove. I am so SICK of the floor! We'll get done though, sooner or later. At least that's what I keep telling myself.

    I still haven't found the time to work out. I worked until 6:30 yesterday (got off at 3:30) and then went home to work on the house some more. Since I'm not working out, I've been super careful about my calorie intake. We'll see on Friday how successful I've been.

    I hope everyone is having a great day!
  • Hello, Hello, Hello!
    Thanks guys - it is soooo nice to be back. Today's food intake hasn't been too good... ;( I'm not back into my planning ahead mode and have been making not so good choices - Captain D's for lunch - yuck!
    I can NOT wait to "feel it" again. I can tell you one thing, if you are ever in doubt - LOGGING YOUR FOOD - Best decision you can ever make. Just KNOWING what you eat - even if it is wrong - helps you make better choices and understand your ups and downs. Now for practicing what I preach... ;)
    Bobbie - What a fun day?!?!?! Practicing - that is so awesome... I need some "practice". I think that would help us TONS!
    Jena - My DH sooooooooo would care - he's always so concerned that I'm saying something that he doesn't want someone to know about... ;) i guess he might be right, eh? But you know what - this is for me! This isn't about anyone else but me! Love you my friend - thank you again for everything!!!!! Now, start kicking my butt into gear...

    Nicole - that is so awesome for you and your hubby. Having someone love you and make you feel sexy and desirable - I think that is half the battle. Welcome to the group. They really are an awesome, awesome bunch! Here's my opinion on the at home exercise - and believe me i am FAR FROM THE EXPERT and am lucky to get in any workout... but I've found just putting on your headphones, picking a good CD, etc of "getting you moving" music will get you started. I would just start with going up and down stairs and doing running in place and jumping jacks and just setting a time limit and sticking to it. It's all good - just getting moving - Note to self - Read last note of advice... :)
    Risa - I am so sorry about your accident - hope your ankle, etc are feeling better soon.
    Tamara - Glad to see that I can still live vicariously through you - girl - how do you do it?!??!
    Thank you so much for the kind words. I will be thinking of you on Friday. I know how hard it is, too. My Dad has now been gone for three years, but the first year (which just so happened to land on thanksgiving) was super, super tough. I like the idea of getting with your family to remember.
    Marcie - Where are you, my friend?
    Karen - Home Improvments? whatcha doin? How close are you to Illinois??? :) I have a TON Of work that needs to be done on my house.

    Deneen - (yes, note to me) - drink your water and kick that nasty soda habit you picked back up. There is no excuse AND it doesn't taste that good. DOn't you want to lose just a smidge of that belly before next Saturday.

    Jessica - You still make me smile... ;) Thanks for the welcome - Let's cheer each other on to get our butts moving - literally... ;)

    To all - Have a wonderful evening. It's 17 below with the windchill here - so I know it is tough to want to do anything beyond sit under a blanket in front of a fire.

    BY the way - I know most of this have done this exercise before, but where is everyone from? It appears we have a canuck in our group - cool! :)

    happy Wednesday - Deneen

  • Good morning everyone. It is 4:30 here and I woke up at 4:00 with the hubby. He has to go back to class today. He has a duty day tonight and probably won't be home until after class tomorrow. He is also taking the internet with him. So I wanted to hop on real quick and say hi to everyone. I hope you all get your last chance workout in before weigh in tomorrow. I hope it is a great one for all of you. We all need to be big losers.

    I managed to get off mu butt and do an hour workout yesterday and my situps and stayed under my calories.

    Today I am going to do another hour workout and prrobably some house cleaning.

    Okay ladies have a great day and make the scale your friend. Do not be afraid of the scale because you have control over it. Make healthy choices and keep moving. Good luck everyone. I am off to clean the kitchen and help the hubby get everything together. Our road is still really bad and it worries me about him driving. I won't be able to rest until I know he made it to the base safe. TTYL

    Welcome Anita! It's never too late to join.

    Rupi - Stress makes me want to eat too. Hang in there!

    Bobbie - I hope you're enjoying your day at home. If I was up at 4:00 I'd be taking a nap! :P

    Tamara - I heard that about the 49 of 50 states too. Unfortunately, we don't get snow here (south Texas - San Antonio to be exact). We did get to experience snow when we were in NY at Christmas.

    Deneen - We had flooring replaced downstairs. We're also replacing trim, painting 1 room, and putting trim up around the passthroughs (openings between rooms). It's endless!!!

    Jena - I love the new picture!

    Before I forget - I've been getting my sit ups in. My abs are sore from them.

    Backk two work for me since it's time to pick up my class from gym.

    Hi my name is Jeanne I have just retired. I am 61 years old. I started last May but have done nothing with losing weight. In fact I went up to 180 lbs. I am down to 172.8 this morning. I am going in the right direction, I know this will be a real challenge for me.
    I was 150 lbs. 22 years ago when I started working at my last job. So I have put on 30 lbs. I just want to get down to even 160 lbs. for now. I would like to keep in touch with other people and try to encourage others also to be healthy. I am not sure how this posting thing works. If you are willing to let me be part of your group let me know. I will drink 64 oz. of water today. I carry around a 32 oz. cup filled with water and ice. I exercised this morning. I enjoy doing Leslie Sansone walk at home 5 mile fat burning walk.
    Have you ever heard of her DVD's? jeanne1949:flowerforyou:

    ok so I have drank all my water every day. Sorry I have not check in everyday on this topic but Tamara just showed me how to do that this evening while we were making some wonderful cranberry orange whole wheat muffins. I have not started working out yet byt plan to get on that real quick. I am weighing in when I get up in the morning and I am a little nervous. I am a now or never type of person. I am either all in or I am just out and it could go either way with most things in my life. I have been weighing evey morning and although I am doing well in my mind it is just not good enough. It is not happening fast enough which in my mind all turns into I am not good enough, or I am not doing well enough. It is so frusterating being in my own head sometimes lol

    hmmmmm:huh: We need to work on a few things together then!! :wink:
    Leave Now or Never outside he is not welcome on our thread!! :tongue: This Will Take Time... We have all heard the phrase You Didn't Gain It Over Night And You Wont Lose It Overnight.
    So that IS a true statement BTW :wink: So we need to do some rewiring up in your "own head" and tell yourself "SELF Chill Out I Am Going To Do This No Matter How Long It Takes!" :bigsmile:
    Stop weighing yourself everyday for now if it is bringing you down... I didn't and haven't lost a ton of weight(this time around the weight loss dial) But I lost a lot of inches went from a size 22 jeans to 16 the scale is an instrument NOT the conductor! If you think you are doing well then that means to me you have already made some big changes so THAT IS good enough! AND is going to get BETTER!! Give it a chance and stick with us We have people on this very thread that have LOST OVER 100 LBS and AND WANT to help US do the same! We are so blessed!! Have a great weigh in either way it goes keep Goooooing!:flowerforyou:

  • Hi Tamara,

    My name is Traci I am 33 years old and married for 8 years . I have 2 children both girls 15 & 12. I am in sunny florida. Notmuch time for the gym and to be quite honest I am a bit intimidated when I walk in. So many machines and not sure what ones are the best to use. I do walk at night. My problem is what to eat. I amnot sure what is a good menu to start with for keeping my calories under 1500. My problem is snacking I believe. I love my swwets. What do you recommend for small meals through out day and snacks. Do we just reply back to this post with weigh in on fridays?

    Look forward to working with everyone and making these goals permanant.

    Hi everyone, was just reading over this thread and I know I'm late, but would like to join in if i might. I'm Anita and am 28. Married to a wonderful guy for almost 10 years now. I've got a lot of weight to lose, but I am determined to take it in small steps and accomplish it this time.

    Anita welcome to the post and team this is an awesome team and I feel very blessed to have them running this long race with us.. Because by far its not a short journeyy..Some days are difficult other days are easy.. Some days you wanna throw in the towel, other day you say I can do this..Some days you fall off the wagon and let it run you over some days you are saddled in pretty good and couldnt possible go anywhere.. My point to this.. Is this is not easy.. If it was everyone would be skinny..

    Please send me a friends request and then send me your starting weight and goal weight and sunday I will be sure to put you on the chart.. Thanks for joining we are here for you!!

    Good Friday Morning team and happy weigh in day.. I had a good loss.. I lost 3.4 pounds this week.. I am less then 2 pounds away from where I wanna be 130 pounds.. My body may not let me get there if not I am ok where I am right this moment..

    Today is gonna be a very hard day for me.. But I am gonna keep my head up.. I have a plan now if I can just stick to it it would be fabulous.. One year ago today about 4pm I got the call that my dad had past away.. I am a very big daddy girl, so I was crushed..If it hadnt been for my fabulous family my husband and my kids and my fabulous friends.. i dont know if I could have gotten through it.. Bobbie had just got to work at cracker barrel when I found out, she went to management and told them that she must leave she needed to be here for me in the time of time.. All she could think about were my kids she made sure that she brought them food home to eat for dinner that was purchase by one of the guest.. Then amber found out and she headed right on over.. This lady is a day I will never forget and thanks a whoel bunch for being there for me.. Amber thanks a great deal today for pickingup my kids from there extra cirrculair activites.. It means a lot to me.. My plan today is to go workout and then head to cracker barrel for breakfast and then back to the gym while my husband meets with a friend of his to go over some work plans.. I dont wanna be left alone at all today.. It gives my mind to much time to think.. after that dont know the plan for dinner then headed to sweet cece's frozen yogurt and genghis grill healthy stir fry with my mom and my step dad and my brother and sister in law...

    Jena- Great post my friend great post.

    Tamara I'm sorry you went through such a sad loss. That had to have been rough going through a year of all those "firsts". I wish you well today.

    I did weigh myself today even though I just weighed myself 4 days ago because I want to be on the same page as all of you. As suspected, no change, still 223. I am sure that next Friday will be better. Been sick all week...finally went to the doc yesterday and got put on antibiotics. Once they kick in I'll be back to my old self. Haven't moved all week! :)

    Anyway, you have yourself a good weekend and try to hang in there as best you can.

    Happy Friday Everyone!
