I have absolutely NO idea what happened and I just want to bawl my eyes out.
Cw: 191.8
I somehow had a 7lb GAIN this week. That doesn't seem possible....
Apparently I was.wrong. I still gained but not as much.
Cw: 186.6
Measurements are exactly the same.0 -
TOM still hasn't started. *sigh* I think I'm starting perimenopause. I have the hot flashes, night sweats, and have had them for years, but this week was pretty very tough. I didn't lose anything. In fact, I gained a pound. I was flat exhausted, ate too much, and still worked out like crazy, but the eating choices were not good. My own fault! So, I've really got to get back on it. Today is a new day, and that's how I've started it. Here's where I'm currently at:
CW: 174
Current Measurements (in inches):
Stomach: 36
Hips: 42
Bust: 41
Thighs: 21
Arms: 12.5
Now, for the even better news. My blood pressure 1 month ago was up to 140/90 (and yes, I'm on bp meds). However, when I took it the other day, it was 130/70!! I couldn't believe it. This had to be my best results!
I'm not sure how much I lost/didn't lose as far as measurements are concerned. I'm just going to keep at it, but I think I'm going to switch it up now. I've been doing Zumba for 1 month, and I saw some great effects from it, and it's fun, so that was a huge plus. However, I think I'm going to try out the 30-Day Shred this month. Sounds like it could be a lot of fun. I'm going to go purchase it and switch between Zumba, yoga, and 30-Day. We'll see how it goes!
Hope all is well with everyone, especially those that were stuck in Irene!

It not much I'm just happy I didnt gain after the emotional last couple of weeks. Going thru a break up and school starting, but not emotionally eating so that one thing positive..I guess... I'm just ready to get re-focused on myself and my own goals, taking things one day at a time.0 -
this is so perfect,so heart waRMING !!!!! :drinker: totally awsome!!!Well....I don't know if I complemented...but I tried to encourage. Was entering a rest stop building to use the bathroom when I noticed an older couple...she was very frail and he was helping her in...using a gait belt to help. I heard him say..."I'm sorry honey...you are going to have to come into the men's room...I think that is better than me going into the women's". She looked mortified...so I went over and told them I was a nurse and could help her in and out of the ladies. She was relieved....explained that they had been on trip and fallen and had to have hip pinned. Now they were on a 5 hour trip home and she really needed the rest room. She was really discouraged about being weak. I told her she was doing great and to hang in there...that rehab would be hard...but would get her back to being independent. She was a perfect stranger...but today I'm wondering about her and hoping that she is staying encouraged.

OMG - I am sooooo hungry today!!!!:mad: I don't know what to do!!! I have logged in everything I have eaten. All of it good, protein, fruit & veggies, only about 500 calories left for the day!!! I have tried drinking water, chewing gum..... I am working from home and avoiding work.... I have to focus :sad: I just made myself a big glass of ice coffee with a splash of vanilla soy milk. It's pretty good, maybe that will help:indifferent:
I start my running class tonight...maybe I'm nervous eating :huh: Thanks for listening...I'll be fine :ohwell:0 -
Well, my stepson left our house today and he's leaving for College on Friday. This will be the last time we see him for a while. Feeling a bit emotional today. My stepdaughter left our house this summer, because her mother suddenly decided she wanted her again. I guess this is what they call empty nest syndrome... either way, I don't like it.0

Poor thing. I imagine that it is hard to deal with an empty house when it has been so full. Luckily my daughter is only 11 so I don't have to experience that yet, but when I do I can just see myself having a breakdown. We are all here for you and if you ever need to chat or vent, don't hesistate. I guess I really suck at giving advice in this area because I know nothing about it, but I just wanted you to know that we are here.

I am sad for you. :brokenheart: I hope they are close enough by so you can see them occasionally.0 -

I feel for you. I know what its like. This summer I had my 15 y/o son who lives with his father, my 12 y/o n 10 y/o nieces, my 8 y/o nephew n my 2 y/o son plus my 36y/o brother n my 33 y/o sister staying with us. My son left then a week later my sister, 12 y/o niece n 8 y/o nephew moved to NY (we are in florida) n then my 10 y/o niece went back to Alaska two days later. Its been a tough three weeks with tons of highs and lows but I finally decided this weekend that I have to keep it moving...if I don't I will go insane from missing them all so much. If you need someone to converse with, I'm always here and definitely feel your pain.0 -
Today was a big achievement for me. I actually got up n got my butt in gear. This is very hard for me, especially after the weekend I had. I logged all my calories, paid attention to what I ate and drank, did some housework as well as worked out a lil bit. Now for most 20 minutes is no big deal but for me 20 min of zumba is a HUGE feat. I actually did the whole 20 min!!! reason I'm so excited??? Well I have no true rhythm n get very embarrassed to dance, am a creature of habit, hate to fail n tend to be lazy about trying new things. Last time I tried zumba I kept saying ” o I can't do that” and just stood there. Mind u, I bought my WII just to get this zumba game so I could lose weight and it took me four weeks to open it up and try. So for me to do a full 20 min class, well that's a big deal...and I'm proud of myself. And I intend on replaying today tomorrow. My motivation right now??? My ticker to read ” lost ____ pounds” and for the numbers to be in the double digits.
Btw...in reading some posts earlier, I saw 30 day shred...what is this? Can anyone tell me more?0 -
YAY!!!! Great job. Keep it up:)0

Still bailing out my basement :explode: I will check in sometime tonight... Love you all!

Btw...in reading some posts earlier, I saw 30 day shred...what is this? Can anyone tell me more?
The 30 day shred is Jillian Michaels (from the biggest loser)'s One month work out DVD to a much stronger body. I bought my dvd at walmart for $10 and it is quite the work out. I just finished Day 6 level 1 today and I feel great. It is a great work out that is quick. 27mins with warm up and cool down. I highly recommend it.
If you want more info let me know Cheers 0 -

WOW Craft ~ You are doing so great!!!! You have really come along way. I love your before and current pics. Keep it up :flowerforyou:0 -
Hey Gang ~ It has been kind of quiet here, I hope all our friends who were near Irene are doing OK Poor Jenn - I hope she hangs in there and takes care of herself.. I know she is worried about us....We are big girls and patient like Genny said :bigsmile:
Running class was really good...I did great, not sure how well I will do when we have to run 5 mins in a row :huh: My shins are alittle sore this moring.
I am packing to go out of town for work
We always go out to dinner..which we get to expense, so some people over do by ordering appetizers and dessert. Oh don't forget the wine:drinker: My plan is good... I have packed snacks and water. I am rooming with one of my best friends, she is on the HGC (what ever that hormone diet is) So she is on track another is pregnant so no wine. I think I will be OK today planning on going to the gym at the hotel. Tomorrow ????? Food Show from 7-5!!! I am working the Nestle booth...probably sauces alfredo ext with pasta, chili Lasagna etc... Might not be too bad.
I plan on checking in later - Have a Great Day Everyone :flowerforyou:0 -
Jenn...so sorry to hear about your computer problems....on top of the Irene stuff. I had my computer crashed by a virus this past year and had to have the hard drive wiped. Really ticks me off that there are people out there just bent on destroying other peoples stuff...ie: creating viruses/hacking/swindling...ughh.
Hope you get stuff fixed. I hope all of you with damage from Irene are doing ok...hang in there.0 -
