    tstout - A very fair vent! TOM is visiting me as well and I'm feeling just ick today.
    lstpaul - Yesterday on the Today show the "Eat This Not That" had an example from Red Lobster I think. The video might still be up on their site. Sounds like you have a good plan!
    Andrea - welcome back to the group!

    Checking in from yesterday:
    Cals - On target!
    Water - 80 oz
    Exercise - 55 min of Jazzercise
    Proud - Last night I made up lunches for the rest of the week and cut up red peppers to munch on. YUM!

    Bluenote: I had a thought about you getting TOM after not having it for 3 years ... do you think you may have gotten it now because you are healthier than you have been for the last 3 years? Just a thought.

    Elmox: I'll take a look at the Today Show website to see if they have the info that you saw yesterday - Thanks!

    Welcome to the newcomers! It'll be nice to not be 'fresh meat' anymore!! :laugh:

    Sorry I haven't been posting and checking in...life has been nuts between working out, spring break plans, and getting all my schoolwork done. I'm .6 pounds from halfway and am so so hoping to hit it on Friday before I leave! Fingers and toes are all crossed.

    Sorry not weight loss related but we had our big anatomy ultrasound today and baby got all A+s! Everything is perfect & she's definitely still a girl. :heart: She's measuring in the 33rd percentile for weight so thankfully it looks like I will NOT be having a 10 pound baby unless she has a crazy huge growth spurt.

    Happy Thursday, ladies!

    I gave into temptation yesterday and ate pretty terribly (about 600 calories over). We took Gunner to the dog beach and ran around so it might be more like 400 over haha... It was definitely a sweatshirt, lay on the couch kind of night. My hips have been really achy this round of TOM.

    I have a doctor appointment this morning to check up on everything. All of the issues my mom has been having has me a little worried. So it's just best to see what's going on and start to take care of things.

    Julie - she looks beautiful! Congratulations :)

    Welcome to the new members!

    Heather - I like the new picture! :)

    :smile: Thanks everyone. I know she just looks like weird little blob in the picture but she's my little blob. :laugh: I think somehow I'm starting to bond with her already and I didn't expect that from myself. I do like how in her u/s pictures it looks like she has a flat facial bone structure because that's one thing I actually like about my face because it's a feature that comes form my Native American ancestors. :smile: If people are looking around for 1 nice thing to say about my physical appearance, it's almost always the bone structure of my face (weird, right?!). :laugh: But, oh, when I was a kid I had the CHUBBIEST chipmunk cheeks **ever** because of my high cheekbones. I hope she isn't cursed with that. :tongue:

    Andrea -- Yep, this is is my first.

    Teresa -- good luck at the doc!

    In weight loss (gain?) news, I had gained 5 pounds since my appointment on 1/31. 4 of that was in the first 1.5 weeks and the other 1 was in the last 3 weeks. I think I may have it under control! Again, the doc didn't say anything about my weight. I assume if there was a glaring problem with how much I've gained, they would at least mention it. To them it looks like I've gained 10 pounds since my 1st appointment which is probably very acceptable. That is, until you realize I delayed my 1st appointment to 12 weeks & that I gained 15 pounds before it (pregnant + holidays = woah). :embarassed:

    Morning ladies!

    I have to confess something....I binged yesterday..I was over my calories by 300 but on target for exercise calories. I didn't want to eat my exercise calories... I have to put myself a limilt before it become out of control...like last summer.

    I made a ticker to be binge free for 2 months. I have to do this because I don't want to go back to my old ways...I need all your help to keep me in check, Please!

    my life has been so hectic these couple of days (more than I have ever expected)...I will give you the details when things calm down a bit. I can't sleep because I stress and overthink things. I pray to God that things go our way *crossing my fingers*

    Now I have to go read the posts...

    Have a great day!!!
