    Morning!!!

    I forgot to weigh myself this morning, but I did remeber - after drinking 4 glasses of water and a cup of black coffee. The scale said 206. The scale was 204 on Wednesday. Yesterday was 205. And I started, the beginning of the year @ 210.

    I am going to count 205, as my current weight, since that is what the sclae said yesterday.

    Jess...........-1.0...........0%
    debra .........-5.0......1.98%
    Jenn..........-1.9........0.69%
    Teresa........0.0.........0.0%
    Cogirl.... .....0.5.........0.0%
    Julie.......... - 2.2......1.05%
    Meokk..........-2.5......1.42%
    Ann...............-6.0.....2.51%
    Heather......-2.2......1.12%
    Lauren.........-3.0......1.68%
    momma........-7.2....2.54%
    Laila...............-5.0....2.38%

    Okay I am caught up. Girls you did geat this week.

    Julie, I am proud of you for regaining your control. Believe me you will be so happy for your son/daughter to not know ya fat. Not that they love you less. I just remember one of my girls would come home crying a couple of days a week because some little boy would say "your mom is FAT" She would just take it and get off the bus crying. I always knew when he did it because he would walk around the block to go to his house instead of in front of our house. His mother is a low life and she ended up in jail for stealing. So Haley got off the bus one day crying and said " mom I am so sorry but I said to him today, My mom might be fat but she loves me and takes care of me and she is NOT in prison" She said I know that was mean but I couldn't help it. Well, that little boy has NEVER teased her since. But oh how I hated the embarassment and hurt my weight caused my little girl.

    Okay now for an inspiring story. I saw a soldier on the news who had lost his arm, vision in one eye, and had brain damage. He regained his health became a Martial Arts instructor for inner city kids, ran a triatholon, iron man thingy, and is giving back to his community. Then there is a woman who lost her leg and she runs in all kinds of races. I think wow my body is intact and I DONT take care of it or appreciate it. How that must irritate a person who has to live without a part of their body. This makes me realize that while I am still healthy I need to take back control of my body. Every night that I go to bed feeling hungry (even though I should not because I ate plenty) I tell myself this feels so much better than going to bed feeling so full I could burst.

    Ann, Doctor OZ started, on Monday - 1/3/11) a challenge (for whom ever want to lose weight) an 11-weeks "move it to lose it" partnered with Nike (sparq - fitness trainers network). I joined by filling out my information. Here is the link:

    http://www.doctoroz.com/videos/move-it-and-lose-it-2011

    And I challenged myself to be 25 pounds lighter, by the end of the challenge.

    The 60 pounds in 6 months is my own challenge...I started this at the beginning of the Year and hope that by July 1 I will have 60pounds down. I want to enjoy the summer in a healthy range. You are more than welcome to join me on this journey. I feel this IS my (OUR) year to be finally healthy (inside and out)..I want to look amazing in my clothing.

    Hope that helps..

    Edit: the reason my challenges (4 of them) overlap is because my signature can't be more than 10 lines or it would not save...so I stay accountable to my goals I overlapped them..sorry for hte confusion.

    Such chatty ladies this morning! I love it!

    So I checked my blood pressure this morning like my doctor said. Now it is way low. It's 108/54. So I called them. They asid the 54 worries them. They told me to check it 3 times a day till Tuesday and call them with my readings. They said it shouldn't jump from high to low like that. I'm a freak of nature what can I say! haha

    Laila: Thanks for the info on the Dr. Oz challenge. I'm also signing up, but will probably go with 20 lbs because that's what I lost in the same amount of time on WW last time, so it should be do-able.

    Momma, Ann and Laila: Great job on the 5+ lb loss this week. You are rockstars! Way to start off the new year.

    So, I came on to rant about how my doctor has now rescheduled my IUD appointment twice. The first time, she needed to be out of the office for personal reasons and today she was called to an emergency C-section. I can't blame her for today, but now I can't get in until the 17th. I'm so pissed! Don't they realize I schedule my appointments to synch with my cycle? Ugh.

    At least I calmed down quickly by updating my MFP profile to my new goals. I've also requested an appointment at another clinic to see if I can get in sooner since it will be time for my next BC refill before the next appointment they currently have scheduled. Frustrating.

    Okay, rant over.

    I don't know why the 54 would bother them that seems like a healthy BP to me.My mom is a registered nurse so I would definitely know but I guess all docs are different in there opinions lol hope you feel better

    Feeling a little off today... no loss... boyfriend has to travel for work (which is FANTASTIC for him! He got a promotion and a raise!!)... working at home is getting to me... I still don't know if I'm going to school next week or not. Lame. I applied for a new job (actually in Chicago...). It's for more than I make now, which would be nice.

    Given all of the above, I was anything but interested in working out.... but I did it anyway. (go me!) And now I'm a little winded and a lot sweaty. Makes me feel better :)

    I'm hoping the addition of the puppy will help me not feel like my best friend during the day is Hoda Kotb... lol. (Maybe, too, then I'll stop following poor Adam around the house like a lost, lonely puppy haha. Funny and sad, I didn't even realize I was doing it until he pointed it out. Oh dear...)

    I'm all in for challenges! My baby sister is getting married October 22nd. I would LOVE to be 60 pounds down by then, but I'm setting my goal at 40 for now and then will reassess come June.

    Ok...so tonight the plan is to go straight to the gym and do c25k w1d3 then relax

    Tomorrow I may do a 930am spin class...and have to figure out how to add the squat challenge thing..

    Its amazing how much less I am burning with this new HRM, but it makes me want to work harder to see a higher burn!

    Ok sorry one more thing...my sister scheduled an appointment for us to go to Kleinfeld's (the bridal shop on TLC) on January 22. I should be super excited because its a fun thing but instead Im petrified at what Ill look like and sometimes get teary jsut thinking about it. I cant avoud dress shopping forever...I jsut want to be excited to go and have it be a happy day instead of torture

    Also, my BFF is getting married in May and I was supposed to have my measurements sent to this lady (shes making all the Bridesmaids dresses) and I tlaked to the dress lady and explained that I am trying to lose weight so she was super nice and gave me until March 1st to give her my measurements! So that gives me 2 full months to lose a few inches!!! PLEASE REMIND ME THAT I MUST LOSE INCHES BY MARCH 1st!! I dont want to be the fat bridesmaid at her wedding (theres always one...and right now its between me and the groom's sister :wink: :tongue: )
