    Tiffani- so glad to know your name! Good luck with your exams, you can do it!

    Welcome newbies, so glad to have you!

    Ok, so today, I only got in one serving of veggies and no fruits, gasp, how did I let that happen? I went over my calories by just a bit but did get to the Y and swam for 52 minutes and did a nice walk on the treadmill for 23 minutes. A friend asked the kids to come over to play, so I took advantage of the time. I also got to sit in the sauna and steam rooms for a bit, wonder how many calories that burns? :wink:

    Got in plenty of water today. Did I tell you all about the FABULOUS new water bottle that hubby and kiddos got me for VDay? It is pink, ergonomic, and has a handy counter at the top to help you keep track of how many bottles you have drank in a day, the bottle holds 24 oz so 3 bottles and the minimum goal for the day is met. No housework at my own house today, yet. I did help my friend do the dishes after she provided me dinner. I am so excited for this new challenge guys! We are gonna rock it!

    Good night guys!

    Add to that a goal of getting at least six hours sleep a night. I'm wolfishly hungry and I think that has to dow with still being awake. After all, if I'd got to bed when I should have, I wouuld be asleep and unknowing of said hunger. I'm incredibly tired, yet unwilling to sleep. (3am here.) :yawn:

    Katie, the water bottle sounds great :) I'm incredibly jealous- sounds like you have a great family to be so considerate.

    Thanks for all being so welcoming- and good luck :)

    Hello everyone! I am so ready for this challenge. I really need to get myself into gear! I have some important events to loose weight for!

    Welcome to the newbies! Love to have new people on here!

    Cass- So excited to see you are back sweetie! :smooched:

    Ok. here are my goals....

    Current weight is 202(:grumble: ). Goal weight will be 190. That is 12 pounds. Its alot but I MUST put the pressure on myself.
    I am making it my goal to log on and speak to you ladies DAILY! I really slacked with this last challenge.
    I drink plenty of water, sometimes too much(lots of bloating from it)
    I want to make it to the gym 5 times per week for 45 min per visit. This will be a super big challenge.

    Now, keep in mind I see a surgeon on Thursday so this may be all out the door before I even know it. We will see when they want to yank this gall bladder out of me.

    Good luck everyone!

    So I finally put in my wieght. I had kinda of a weird day yesterday and was only on the computer for like 10 minutes at home. I have struggleing with my oldest's temp. She has had a fever since Fri and we would be able to brake it, but it would jump back up withing hours. Took her to the doctors last night because it jumped back up and they just gave her some antibiotics to kill what ever it is attacking her system. Still don't know what's wrong. In fact she is acting the complete oppisite. She is normally shy and quiet and keeps to herself and lately she has been talking everyone's ears off and driving me nuts. Hopefully she'll get better today.

    I still have to catch up with posts, but I saw Cassey is back! Welcome back girl!!!!:flowerforyou:

    I hope everyone has a wonderful day. Hopefully I can do some catching up tonight. Later.

    Hello everyone. Sorry I haven't been around. I've been lurking, just not posting much. I had a miscarriage, and even though I didn't know I was pregnant (I am on a b.c. that I don't have periods anymore), it's really thrown me for a loop. I've become like another person, evil and hateful to everyone. I've quit caring about how I eat, exercise, look, heck, I think I went almost a week without showering.

    Anyways, I know I need to pull myself out of this slump, so I'm starting to force myself to do some of the things I should be doing. You know... like showering... and caring for myself and my family...

    I'll be back later with my weight and stuff...

    good day guys....

    bunny....i am so sorry. rest
    cass....glad to see you again. hope things are getting better.
    shanell...can't beleive she still has that fever.
    pdx.... yes, your goals will change. my surgeon released me on monday. said the air and swelling lasts 4-6 weeks. i have just getting my tummy down when this happened. so had been discouraged by the big tummy again. but, now knowing it still can be awhile. all i can do is plug along. i will get it back. not having the attacks anymore make it worth it. he also told me that my liver has to learn to function again. that foods are going to act differently now. some will cause problems, some won't. some that did won't, some that didn't will. like chinese it use to cause problems, ate it sunday and didn't bother me at all. (as in needing the bathroom). let us know what happens tomorrow.
    tiff...good luck on your exams...
    tuburrose....sleep is very important. it does affect your weight loss. sleep....:yawn:

    DH has court today. cable company coming today. need to get workout done. eye itching and now swollen. i really need to get going.....

    back later....

    Pettmybunny- I'm so sorry to hear that. Whether you knew or not, it's bound to throw you for a loop. Give yourself time to grieve- you will come through this, I promise. Trust me, blocking these things and pretending it's fine because you didn't know and it wasn't planned is only a recipe for disaster. It doesn't matter what the circumstances are, a miscarriage is still a very harsh blow. So take as much time now to come to terms with it as you need. Don't feel bad about being sad over it. Just try to take care of yourself xx

    KatieEppers Posts: 301 Member
    Pettmybunny (it's Robin, right?)- I am so sorry to hear about that. You will be in my prayers. I have never had to experience something like this so I won't pretend to understand. But I will say that we are here for you if you need us. Pull yourself out of the funk, I suppose you must, but in caring for yourself, don't forget to give yourself the time to rest, relax, and grieve.

    Hi girls. I have NO time to post right now, but I wanted to say...

    Robin...you brought me to tears (although extra emotional these days)...I am SO sorry.:cry::flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: I have had a few scares so far through my pregnancy (which is still fairly new) and I can't even imagine what going through a miscarriage feels like. You are in my thoughts and prayers....seriously! Lots of rest and seek the support you need from family members and friends. They will be there for you. And so are all of us...WHATEVER you need. Take care sweetie.:heart::heart: :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou:

    I'll be back later.

    Robin- my :heart: goes out to you right now. I wouldnt even begin to know how you feel or what you are going through! I do know people who have went through it and it seems so difficult because there just seems to be nothing to blame it on. I think that might be the hard part. Take time, take care and come back to us when you are ready!

    Hi All,

    Everyone seems eager to get in shape for spring. I didn't stick to my meal plan so well yesterday, some left over chocolates started calling me. But today I am back on track and got in a great workout at the community center. I burned 559 calories in one hour. That is very good for me. I have a meal planned for today and will get started on tomorrows since I spend the whole day at school.

    1: coffee & creamer, skim milk, shredded wheat, & blueberries
    2: Orange
    3: Ham & light swiss on rye
    4: popcorn
    5: Chef salad
    6: skim milk & 100 cal snack pack


    Moonlight, Welcome to the Sixers. Tell us a little about yourself.:flowerforyou:
    Cass, Wow!! You came back to us.:heart::heart: :heart:
    Connie, Love that the journaling is helping you. Keep us posted on what helps.:happy:
    Pettmybunny, So sorry to hear about your loss.:flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou:
    Hi to everyone I didn't mention.

    Have a great day:happy:

    Good Afternoon all,
    My workouts have not been that great this week. I am hoping to restart next week though. My daughter got the flu last week so I have not been able to go to the gym. She is feeling better now but still coughing and the yucky green runny nose. So I have been trying to keep her home as much as possible. Tomorrow they are calling for a little bit of snow so I will probably be home. Friday she has a drs appt and then I have to go to Asheville so I will be busy that day.
    Saturday is our annual cub scout banquet so I am planning that as my cheat day. It is a potluck and I will have no idea how much calories I am eating plus I ordered a huge cake with whipped cream frosting which is my favorite. So I will try to just have a small piece of that.
    I am hoping ot get back on track with my exercise next week. The past month has been so hard on exercising with everything that has gone on lately..


    Robin I really do feel for you and you will be in my prayers.

    Well...let's see. Today I woke up feeling SO crappy and sick! :sick: Blah! So...I didn't thaw anything for dinner and I didn't even bring my gym bag...so probably won't make it to the gym yet again. But...I decided that I will make a tuna casserole for dinner tonight...so not stressing about that anymore. But...still not feeling 100%. I guess baby is a little sick today. Oh well. I've been SO busy with work today that I haven't even compiled my food for the day. But here's what I'm having (I probably won't put all the calories here...if you want to know you can ask me).

    Breakfast-
    1 c. Oh's cereal with 1 c. skim milk, 8 oz. OJ.

    AM Snack-
    Chewy Smores granola bar, Rice Crispy Treat

    Lunch-
    Stouffers Cheesy Potatos (frozen meal), 10 baby carrots, 1 c. sliced strawberries, AE YoLite Yogurt.

    Afternoon Snack-
    1 med. apple, 100 cal. pack almonds, chewy granola bar.

    Dinner-
    Homemade Tuna Casserole, salad with romaine lettuce, tomato, cucumber, croutons, cheese crumbles, and ranch dressing.

    PM Snack-
    Depends on how I feel.

    SO...that's the plan. I'll check back later. Oh! And HELLO to everyone!!! And welcome to the newbies!!!

    Ladies, I am so lost. Yesterday and today (so far) haven't been quite as bad as the last few weeks but I still can't seem to haul myself right back up on the horse like I know I HAVE TO. With our impending bankruptcy, Leith's big dental appointment next week, some issues with a friend of mine and discussions about a possible opportunity to move to Australia for a while, my history of using food to dull my overwhelmed emotions just feels too strong for me. My little ones are sick right now (and I'm hoping for so many reasons that they don't have what I had!) so I still have not managed to get to the gym or really work out in any relevant way for WEEKS. They are needing me all the time and it's not always stuff I can hand off to their Dad (like breastfeeding). They're also both really Mum-ish when they don't feel well. I am terrified of getting fat again but I just can't seem to stop this cycle right now because I'm feeling so overwhelmed. I used to love feeling like a motivator around here and I'm drudging the bottom of the barrel. I don't want to bring anyone else down with me but I really needed to vent / fess up / make contact.

    PedalHound: we all need support in this. Don't worry about "bringing us down"- it's not like that. Feel free to rant and rave all you like.

    Hmm, today:
    -A slice of wholegrain bread, with light Flora.
    -I then attempted to eat some malteasers, due to the significant lack of healthy food at my uni, but ate one and found it too sickly sweet- my tastebuds are changing it seems.
    -A small bowl of Cheerios, with semi-skimmed milk.
    -A bag of salted popcorn. (Roll on Friday and payday- I'm seriously running out of any semblance of normal food)
    -A chicken breast, done in the Ramoska (sort of grilled, sort of baked). (My mother, thank god, has normal food and I'm now at her house.)
    -A small baked potato, with extra light Flora.
    -Only one Diet Coke, and lots of water.

    Total: 1110.

    I may yet have a fruit salad, as I seem to be lacking the the fruit-veg stuff :grumble:

    I made the fatal error of trying to discuss my worries about finding a job for after uni (I'm free as of June- eek!) with my mum and stepdad. They're now arguing about how to choose a new employee (both have managerial roles). I'm getting a headache and even more worried about careers!

    Weighing in tomorrow. Eep!

    All the best everyone xx
