hopetobeinshape

Kimlee I am glad your knees are feeling better! and enjoy the weather :flowerforyou:

Alas it is raining here so no walking the dog today before work. So today I am going to do 10 lunges on each leg and 10 squats as my goal. Still feeling ick :sick: so I think I am going to stop at walgreens and get some different decongestant before work.

Everyone have a lovely day, I will check back in while Im at work :glasses:

Thanks for the link, I'll do some Re-con since there's some that want to do that. If I'm MIA this weekend, don't worry. The birthday party is Saturday and family is going to start coming in on Friday evening. Plus the fact that I'm still spring cleaning (it was a good excuse to get it done all at once). I think I'm going to move my fridge today:happy: . I'll see how that goes.:laugh:
Hope everyone starts/continues to feel better and keep it to yourselves, I don't want any. Thank-you very much.:laugh:

sudzie88

hi guys!

hope - get better soon! being sick is no fun

ari - hi!! don't be blah...

today is beauuutiful and i went for a run for the first time with the boyfriend.. a little embarrassing, but fun too also i did a combo of week 5 days 1 and 2, because it goes a little to fast for me this week... eek!

also, i think i have turned my boyfriend onto MFP! he doesn't have much weight to lose, if any, but he started asking me to look up foods that he eats a lot and was horrified with the calories and nutrition info. i was like see.... MFP is awesome it feels great to know what you're putting into your body!

anyway, have a good day everyone! will check back later...

MissResa

Good morning, everyone... I'm feeling much better now that I'm getting rid of the goo(blech!)-thank goodness for antibiotics! I'm still feeling a little weak, so I'm not pushing as hard as normal. Another couple of days and I think I'll be back to full strength.
I helped out at my daughter's preschool for a walking field trip-I think the stress burned more calories than the walk did!:laugh: Seeing all the little ones next to the road made my heart beat almost out of my chest!

So last night was a bit of a let-down: only 2 other people showed up for volleyball! The sun is coming out, and so people start to flake out during the beginning of *spring* for us Alaskans. I really, really wanted to burn those calories, and I was so disappointed not to be able to!

For breakfast I had a muscle milk protein shake-300 calories. I'll post later!

counting down to the weekend teressa glad ur feeling better

sudzie88

good morning everyone!

i wanted to share a mini success....

i have been at my boyfriends house in new york for the past couple days and was very worried because i was just with him and his best guy friend who a TON and really badly (and still don't gain weight, grr). however i still managed to stay within my calories on both days! i used to feel like if i was at all "on vacation" i should be able to eat whatever i want. trying to dispell that notion is difficult especially when boys are scarfing down 3 cheeseburgers and huge fries while i eat a 6" turkey sub with veggies... but afterwards it feels great i do have another big challenge ahead of me for this weekend though, my parents are coming into town which means lots of meals out. going to exercise a lot both days and also immediately put half of whatever i order into a box to take home.... still nervous though.. why is food so delicious??? :P

have a good day all! teresa and hope glad your feeling better, and hope your 100% soon!

MissResa

Hey my peoples! I just wanted to pop in and check up really quick-the sun is shining, and everyone here in Alaska is starting to feel summer coming on! Yard work is going to be filling my days pretty soon here!

I've done very well with my calories-protein shake for breakfast, salad for lunch with grilled chicken, and for dinner I made lean pot roast with lots of veggies-it's waiting for us to get home to eat! You have got to LOVE those crock pots!!!

Hope everyone has a great weekend!!!

Sudzie-I am so proud of you! It's so hard when you're surrounded by other people who eat whatever they want! You must feel really, really good knowing you stuck to your guns!!!

OMG OMG OMG! I weigh in everyday for acountabilitay. Helps me know what I am putting into my body is good nor not. Anyway remember on Tuesday I wanted to be at 180 cause it was a number thing! I am 180.2 which I can not remember the last time in my life I was 180. I want to look at my medical records so I can really find out cause I think I was in 9th grade or something. So I want to lose another 5 lbs by June 17th when we leave for MD. I am thinking I might be able to lose those 5 and some if I keep at it. I was aiming for 1 lb a week and I have just over 6 weeks! Also I can't help but mention I am so EXCITED to go visit family. Anyway that is my bit of good news for the weekend.

MissResa

Holy cow, Christine! I am sooooo happy for you! I know your family in the states are going to be floored when they see you come off the plane, and your husband must be so proud! Way to go, chica!

thompsons81702

Thanks! I know they have only seen a few pictures since I have started losing weight. My grandmother had mailed me some size 18 jeans and 1 x t-shirts about a month ago and I had to mail them back and tell her I was in a size 12 and a L. I don't think she believed me. She exchanged them and got me a pair of 14's and I told her they fit and were kinda lose, she was like really. Anyway so I think they will all be shocked when they see me. I am so excited to go shopping. Our PX has like no selection unless you are fat and old or a teenager and size 0. I want to buy some cute summer clothes. I love TJmaxx and can't wait to go shopping! I also am going to buy a ball gown for our ball this fall. I love getting all dressed up and I can't wait to go try on dresses. I want a royal blue dress. I have been checking out David's bridal and can't wait to go to the store and try them on. The problem is I wear a 12 bottom and a 16 top. No matter what I do I do not lose a bunch off my chest. Anyway now that I have bored you all. If you can't tell I miss the good old US of A!

also, had a bad food day - brunch, baby shower, and bbq. not too too bad, but definitely a challenge. sigh. tomorrow is a new day!

MissResa

Hey, sorry I haven't posted sooner-it's in the 70's here, and for Alaska that's pretty much unheard of this early!!! We've been soaking up as much sunshine as we possibly can!!!

I hope everyone had a great weekend!
Ari, your pics are adorable!
Christine-no matter what you wear home, your family will be impressed! Spoil yourself shopping back home!
Sudzie-Start over tomorrow, and consider this weekend a lesson learned! You'll be fine!

did u go suntanning today possibly the beach? :laugh:

u really think they are adorable i was so self conscious and nervous about taking them :blushing:

MissResa

Ari, you are always such a cutie-pie! And no, I didn't go to the beach today... Our beaches are cold, cold, depressing places. I stayed at my parent's house this afternoon, and enjoyed the sunshine in their beautiful yard. My mom has such a green thumb that she could make Mother Nature jealous!!! Even though it's just the beginning of summer for us, her yard already looks good!!!

I hope everyone had a great weekend, and I'll see you all tomorrow!

Hello everyone! Sorry I was MIA all weekend....I couldnt pass up enjoying the beautiful weather. Hubby and I went shopping on Friday, and I picked up a cute summer dress in a size 6...wow. On Saturday, I opened all the windows in my house and let the breeze blow thru as I cleaned. I scrubbed all the floors, cleaned all the baseboards, dusted, vaccumed. Basically it was the spring cleaning for my house. That afternoon, I helped the hubby in our blueberry fields. On Sunday, I did some step aerobics and played tennis with the hubby - best part is I had no knee pain during or after. Hopefully the knee pain is gone for good (knocks on wood). But I am going to follow up with my doctor just to be safe.

Hey everyone! Hope you all had a great weekend. We went to our cottage in Ontario and it was beautiful! The first day we did a bunch of hiking and yesterday we took the boat out and dropped a couple of lines (no, didn't keep anything - it's not fishing season yet!). I was very relaxed and happy.

Now, however I am under the weather. Got something happening in my head and throat. And AF finally came yesterday! Only a week and a half late! argh! Anyway, hopefully now I will be back to normal soon and can get moving with my 30 day shred!

Started the new contest at work. There's 6 of us and we'll be weighing in and measuring every Friday. By the end of June, we'll see who's got the most percentage lost (overall percentage from both weight lost and inches lost). We're all putting in 20 bucks so ya... I want to win!

Here we go...

Hello everyone! The weekend was a whirlwind of course. It was nice to spend time with the fam. Party went good. Didn't eat the greatest, but it could have been worse. I was busy all day so no work-out time. Now hubby is sick, so I'm doing double duty in house and outside. It's finally starting to be sunny, but now the wind is blowing. :grumble: I just hope the munchkin doesn't get it. Hubby calls it the cow flu.:laugh:
Glad everyone is doing well still, I'll try to keep popping in. Don't know how much though till things settle down. :grumble: Whenever that may be. Probably when I get sick:grumble: Oh well, have a great day:flowerforyou:

sudzie88

pepamint83

MissResa

Played racquetball with my husband today, and am going to do P90X later on tonight! I have to admit that yesterday and today I didn't eat as well as I could have-hopefully the extra exercise will push things in the right direction!

Our weather went from being in the 75's to now being in the 45's! It's one of the worst things about living in Alaska. You never know when summer is officially going to start!
