  • Good morning everyone. It's 5:30am here and I've been awake for an hour and a half so I thought I might as well get up and say good morning!! Although not so good for me...what the heck am I doing up?!?!
    I'd like to get to know my fellow Blue Team better so I thought I'd post 3 things about me you probably don't know and anyone who wants to follow suit please do.
    1.) I'm soon to be divorced. :sad:
    2.) I work from home in sales. :bigsmile:
    3.) I am desperate to have kids one day! (tick tock goes my biological clock) :laugh:

    Looking forward to seeeing how we do this week. I weigh in tomorrow morning.

  • Good morning, Smurfettes!

    I was out last night, and I had a few too many pieces of pizza (it was a mini margherita pizza, without a lot of cheese). I felt myself being "satisfied" but I still had a little bit more. I didn't leave STUFFED though, just a bit more than satisfied. Good thing I made a side salad or I may have eaten more!

    I'm also wearing my new pants today (32" waist!) and my new shirt (slim cut, ahhh!) I am going to be working late tonight, so I won't be able to make kickboxing, but tomorrow I definitely will. Wednesday is "Jeff's butt gets kicked at kickboxing" night.

    Random Note: I had a friend from college staying with me last weekend, and for breakfast we had some cereal (classy I know). I divide my cereal into 1 cup portions as soon as I get home because I bring it to work with me (grab a bag and go). I noticed that my friend, who is quite overweight, ate three of those little bags (3 cups = 540 calories + the milk). I probably could have eaten like that before. Now, I eat one cup of cereal and some milk for breakfast, and I feel satisfied.

    Three Things about Me
    1) I backpacked around Europe for 2 months after I graduated from college
    2) I speak fluent Spanish (I have a degree in it along with accounting)
    3) I was planning on living in Washington DC after graduating from college, but I am living in Connecticut for a year doing a fellowship. I don't know where I want to move next July (either DC or NYC)

    Good morning smurfs! I had my physical therapy yesterday and it wore me out too much to do any cardio. I was hungry though I kept eating everything I could get my hands on. I think I managed to eat everything slowly enough that I didn't go too far over though. Things you may not know about me:

    1) I'm worried about losing my job because work is slow (not a single thing to do so we're all on the computer right now).
    2) I'm single and that's fine for now - except I don't know how to meet new people and all my friends and friends' friends are long picked over and intertwined enough without me getting mixed up.
    3) I have a huge dog and he is my baby!

    Jules--What I do is portion it out as soon as I get it home. A regular cereal box has about 9 cups. I then just throw the little snack bags back into the big box. I do the same thing with trail mixes (1/4 cup servings). It saves money (I only eat that much) and calories!

    Biggest Loser tonight! WOOT
  • 4. I am a stay at home mom ( Suni... what exactly is it you do and do you make a decent amount of money. I would love to find a job I could do from home.)

    Connie....I set small businesses up to accept credit cards and debit. I sell them debit terminals basically. The company I work for partners with a financial institution and as they get business members they send them to me to set them up. I do most of my work by phone, email, and fax. Every now and then I go out to see a business but not very often. I cover a huge territory in northern BC and from time to time have to travel. It would be a great job for a parent. And the income potential is quite good. I live alone and own my house with no difficulty. This job spoils you though. It would be very difficult to go back to the real world of work!! :wink:

  • Did everyone watch the show tonight? I cry at every episode!!! I'm such a suck. I wish noone ever had to go home. They all need to be there sooo bad!! At least it looks like the Grey Team is doing well on their own at home!
  • Good evening everyone. Sorry I have not been more present on the boards these days. I am just amazingly busy!

    I have gotten a few weigh in's but still need a whole lot more. I dont think we will get them posted before black. They all seem to weigh in by the end of tuesday. We have alot of wednesday weigh ins.

    Three things about me...

    1. I am a SAHM of 2 boys...13 and 5. My oldest son has Autism and the youngest just started Pre-K.

    2. My husband and I have been friends since childhood.

    3. I walked a Marathon last October. One of the hardest things I have ever done.

    Well, doesnt sound as interesting as backpacking in Europe or anything but there you have it!

    Good Luck on weigh in everyone!

    Amy
