the NEW black team

Marla64

I just realized that I'm in a SEA of toys as well. The dang things are even stuck on the door. Geesh!

Amanda - LOL I think I'd keep my pics in my undies to myself, too! hehe

Honey, I would rather see a house LIVED in by 3 children than a museum!! pul-ease!

you look GREAT!

I do often think we could pass for a toy museum. After Christmas they are everywhere. My dad was actually desining a tv stand that could attach to the wall for me yesterday so we'd have more floor space for....toys. :sick: Leave it to grandpa!

Oh, and thank you very much. :blushing:

You are adorable Sara! And with 3 under 3 ... girl, you NEED lots of toys just in self-defense! :laugh: :laugh:

Three under 3-- I just missed that by a month when I had my first three kids in the early '90s-- I do believe that qualifies our dear Mrs. Beans for a Supermom title-- -- able to leap tall mountains of toys in a single bound, more powerful than a gassy baby-- look! Up in the nursery, it's SuperMom (disguised, naturally as mild-mannered Sara Beans-- )


Just for you, Sara-- :bigsmile:

Hey black team I'm working on those fruits and veggies we are suppose to be eating. I didn't realize that I wasn't getting enough fruit until I was paying attention. So am doing bette. Won't weight until Wednesday as that is our weigh in day. So good luck to all. Still doing my walking.

Do you have a photobucket account? Take the directlink code that it gives you & post it here & I can do the rest, if you'd like.

yes! Ok. I will try. Thanks


Oh and BTW....I KNOW I am not supposed to weigh before next wed but ............................

142!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!It has been 8 weeks since I have seen that freakin ticker move.....I HAD to change it!!

YAY for the end of the P-word! I'm so proud of you for sticking with it!!

Time for the wave ... where'd it go? Trying again ...



Well, I hope this post isn't actually showing up 8 times ... the wave is being shy so I'll try something else ...

Kick that P to the curb!!

MissGorgeous

DONT KILL ME

but is weigh in tuesdays or wensdays?

arewethereyet

I decided to go ahead and post my before and after sidebyside pic here.....afterall,why be shy about something I worked so hard for? Oh boy,i hope this works....sorry if it doesn't.




LOL,I had to edit the after pic...way to big:laugh: ...ok,now off to that workout!

so cute!! You have lost so much....you really inspire me to keep going!:drinker:

Marla64

Here, here!!!! Here's to inspiration-- you all are incredible!!

Hope my plateau ends, but who knows-- as of now I have 200 calories til the end of the day. We went out for breakfast on the way to take Mike back to Hershey where he hooked up with his son for the trek back home to Georgia-- so, I had a few too many calories.

Oh well-- I plan to exercise tonight-- good news/bad news-- there is no transcribing work for me tonight. My company goes into a horrible holiday slowdown-- so there will be no income for these past couple days, but it's been nice family time and tonight I can exercise without worrying about squeezing it in between typing sessions. Hopefully business will pick up soon-- yipes.

I'm changing the topic for now, I'm sooo excited for BIggest Loser to start tomorrow night. This time I won't be eating chocolates and cake while I'm watching, I'm down 4 pounds so far this week, hoping for 5. I'm not sure which day we are weighing in either, we started on a thursday. If we are going a week from thurs we'd be weighing in on Wednesdays?

jackobean29

Not sure why my ticker doesn't show up, any suggestions, or am I the only one that can't see it?

3babybeans

Make your ticker
Copy the code
Go to "My Home"
Go to "settings"
Go to "change forum signature"
Copy code there.

WaLA!

That's what I've been doing in the past, and it doesn't seem to be hurting anything. Since you're not making a habit of going over, it should probably work itself out just fine.

Wednesday is weigh in day for the black team. So go team:drinker:

Girlmom282109

So today has not been very fun for me. The digital scale we had broke and the other one with "springs" as spyguy says told me I weighed in at 186 and this morning I weighed in on my wii fit and it told me I was 189. I am sooo sad. Before I would have stuffed my face all day if that happened. today I haven't wanted to eat at all. I'm afraid of gaining weight and I know that is dangerous. I just am so tired of being the big girl at work and every where we go that even 1 or 2 pounds scares me to death. I plan on working out on the treadmill as soon as the kiddos go down tonight. and also a little on the wii and I cleaned the house today. all becasue I'm sad. I am learning to do other things besides eat when I'm sad or bored so I guess that is a good sign right?

Aww Samantha ... I'm sorry you're sad. Saw your AV and wondered what was up. But remember ... that number is just that ... a number. Don't let it get you down. And don't let it make you afraid to fuel your body!!

The important thing is the last thing you said. You did NOT run to food because you were feeling sad. Did you hear that? You found productive, healthy things to do to deal with your emotions.

Do you realize just how HUGE that is? Wow. Really ... take that to heart and think about just what an enormous victory that is!!

tresa1234

Alright ... I have been sitting here for way too long today! Gotta go find some healthy dinner and move around a bit!!

Y'all are TOO much fun!!

Have a great night folks!!

I went to the drs office once time and gained 3 pounds instantly. I was literally in tears...the Doc pointed out I was 20 pounds lighter...either way!!

He then smiled like this

jeannie you always know how to make me laugh!

Hubby got mad at me because I was mad at myself. It's hard when it's coming from him because he has lost 30 pounds just changing the way he eats and maybe and I say maybe exersicing 2 times a week.

I'm proud of myself for not running to food but I'm so afraid of gaining weight that seeing the numbers go up instead of down bums me out

Good evening fellow Black Team Members! I am so excited about BL starting next week and about joining this challenge. Good luck to everyone. My busy schedule does not allow me much time to get on here and I find the threads kind of hard to find. Will something about "new black team" be in all topics so we can find the threads? Also, if there is anything important that I am not responding to, please feel free to email me and shake me a bit . I am currently working two jobs and going to school full time and some days there is just no me time left at the end of the day and I am using my reserve for exercising at this point. Anyway, I am so glad to be a part of this team and look forward to seeing less of you soon (teeheehee).
