    Naked in walmart... that would be a sight. to see:laugh:

    Well I 'm sad. i'm still up, but i have to confess, when I got back from vacation the scale said 159...I still can't belive it. I didn't think I was that bad. So this next week I've really got to watch it.....I'm on my own this next week....Bob started his new job down in NM and got our son a job down there too... and Lynsey is going camping all week with a friend. I'm lossing all my support.:frown: I got to keep from getting depressed, this is a test for me on how well I can motavate myself I think????? so next Friday will be a great weightin.... Maybe I'll make a goal to be in the 140's by the first of August. that's 5lbs in 3 weeks!!!!:tongue:
    .
    hope everyone has a better weighin then me! !!!! and a great friday too.... gota move still have more lawn to mow and flower beds to weed out.....and fence to mend...:bigsmile:

    Crystal I'm glad your mom had a good surgery.

    I guess my surgery went well. The first 2 days after the surgery were really not bad but then the pain started and it was no joke. I'm still in alot of pain. I have to drug myself regularly because otherwise it hurts so much I just want to punch myself in the mouth. So obviously I barely eat and move. Hope the pain goes away soon so that I can finaly enjoy going outside with the kids and enjoy the summer.

    So I weight in at 161.5 on friday but for some reason I can't log it into the spreadsheet. I will try later.
    Next week I should be down into the 150s woohoo!

    Good morning!!

    I hope that everyone is doing well!! Yesterday ended up being a day of errands & time with family, so I ended up taking it is a much needed REST day! :tongue:

    Connie - So sorry to hear that you're losing your support, but it's also a great week to focus on you!! Take advantage of it & see if you can try out a gym or new program that you wouldn't usually be able to. (There's a spinning place in my area that offering a free week of classes to try out - for example) Seems like in the summer there's alot of specials running! Don't get down! You can do this!! You can meet your goal!! - BTW - love the pic!! :happy:

    Emelie - Sorry to hear that you're struggling with the surgery. I was awake during my wisdom-teeth-ectomy & I remember how gross it was. The cracking, popping, digging & blood!! :sick: So gross!! Then I was in pain & the pills made me sick because I wasn't eating enough! It was a vicious cycle!! Anyway, I hope that you're doing better soon! - Try signing back into the spreadsheet - upper right hand corner! :wink:

    Where's everyone else?? I'm wondering how much longer this thread is going to run?? You girls that are here regularly, what do you think?? Should we continue plugging along here or do you have other threads for support that you'd be okay with? I really do love our spreadsheet.... .. :smile:

    Good Morning Lovely Ladies!

    I had a hard weekend. It was not BAD but it was bad lol. I did not log my food well at all! I don't eat unhealthy (can't do to so many allergies) and you know what they say to much of anything even good things is to much. I ate a lot this weekend :ohwell: Starting fresh today! I did take my rest day yesterday which was probably the worst day for me to do that as we went and ate at my MIL house and she is Korean so not the most healthy food but you know the last time we ate there was two months ago or so. This morning I am eating oatmeal with these new chopped dates that I found at walmart (same calories as raisins) and a little bit of real maple syrup and OMG it is sooooooooooooooooooooooooooo good lol

    Connie- I agree with Sandy take this time for you! You can do and you deserve it!

    Emelie- Sorry to hear that you are having a hard time. I remember getting mine out as well and it was so painful! Take care of yourself and just remember it will only get better!

    Sandy- Glad to hear that you took a rest day you deserve it! Not sure where everyone else is! I love the spreadsheet as well. I am willing to check in here as well as the other group if the other regulars want to keep it up. What do you all think?

    Have a WONDERFUL day!!

    good morning crul world.:frown:
    at least that's how I'm feeling this morning. I know I'll feel better once I get moving.

    Emile glad the hear you mad it through you surgary ok.... I have a date with my dentest this morning.( I hate dentests) and not looing forward to it. at least I'm not getting my wisdom out. I can hardly remember it... i do remember my face swelling up like a bulloon and crying alot and refusing to leat the house for a week.... when my 2 oldest kids had theirs ou it was like no big deal though expesally for my son. take your meds, and the pain will get better in no time.. and think about all the lbs you are dropping while not being able to eat much :laugh:

    Sandy and Amanda thanks... I'm sure I can find lot of new things to try My sis started bike. I'd love to go with her but she is 700 miles away... My hubby thinks I need to get a dog....thats something to think about too.. It could take me on long walks... I'ed need a big one though?? I'll find something to keep me going.

    Amanda The oatmeal sounds wonderfult o bad I've already eaten... I love it in the winter, but hardly eat in the summer unless I'm camping...

    As for everyone alse I miss hearing from them all (probaly busy with life) and I'd sure miss all your support too if we ended here.... i don't know eather???? I don't mind checking in here.....maybe the others will wonder back??? or not?????:ohwell:

    Hey group!!

    We just got back from a trip to the park! So glad that we survived that one!! It's so tough teaching a 3 year old the value of waiting your turn & being a good friend. I swear it's like the first time, everytime!! I just layed the baby down for her nap & finished eating some lunch. I hope to get a workout started in about an hour & then we've gotta get ready for MJ's dance class tonight. Fun, fun!!

    Connie, I hope that you're feeling better!! A bike ride sounds like a wonderful way to get motivated! A dog might be nice too! Do any of your neighbors have one you can borrow for walks?? Or are you thinking of getting one to add to the family?

    Amanda, your oatmeal sounds yummy!! A little chopped pecans is really good too!

    Sounds like everyone that's responded so far is still interested! We'll keep it going as long as we can then!! :drinker:

    Have a great day!!

    Sandy- I hear ya and teaching them those things never ends I don't think lol. I would LOVE to have pecans but I can't because Kayla is so allergic to nuts that I can't eat them around her :sad:

    Well sadly I had a VERY weak moment and I gave in :cry: :grumble: I ate baked tostidos and salsa and some swedish fish. WHY do I do that to myself??? WHY does my husband insist on making these temptations for me when he knows it is so hard for to turn that crap down. I think now though that I had my fill I will not indulge like I did again. It has been a LONG time since I had either of those so maybe that is why it was so hard. On to a healthier day of eating for me!

    Hope you all have a great day!

    goodmorning ladies...

    Well yesterday turely was a rotten day...Don't feel bad Amanda I gave into temptation too. a frined took me out to lunch...I ordered the grilled chicken and salad...but then we ordered a hugh Ice Cream dessert and ate it all... and no it didn't make me feel better:sad: then I came home after shopping and did nothing for the rest of the evening.. I'm not handling this single life very well. This morning I'm feeling pretty bloted even though the scale didn't seem to notice...I need some major motavation to get me through the rest of this week..So I guess I got to stop thinking and just do today.....

    Amanda have you ever tried dark chocolate chips and cinnimon in your oatmeal...I love it!!!!
    Emilie how's your mouth feeling????

    Hope you all have a wonderful day today...
    I'll try to have a better one...and get moving...only three days left to make a different on the scale and I'm still not back to where I should be yet!!!

    Amanda, I had tried to respond to you this morning but lost my connection & my reply!! :grumble: I was going to say that you're doing great!! Chips & salsa & Swedish fish are two of my weaknesses as well! But you are strong! You will not let this derail you! Dust yourself off & get right back on!! You're awesome!!

    Connie, hang in there! Maybe you just needed some rest after shopping! Today is a new day, don't let your gain get you down this week. Just set yourself a goal & keep at it!! You'll get there!

    I'm thinking upper body toning today & maybe a walk with the girls in the stroller.

    Have a great day ladies!!

  • KZOsMommy
    KZOsMommy Posts: 854 Member
    Well today is my cardio day and I am doing a 3mile walk DVD, Ab work out and Billy Blanks Tae Bo Cardio.

    Tomorrow is sculpting so it will be either Turbo Sculpt or BL Power Sculpt 1,2,3 and some ab work. Sometimes I feel that need to do a little cardio so I do my Jillian Michaels kickboxing too

    That Ultimate Tae Bo sounds great!

    I'm not sure, I haven't even given tomorrow a though yet. Today I worked out in the yard and then tonight I went for a 2.5 mile walk and got ate up by mosquotes, but it was such a nice evening after a hot day. btw I'm feeling much better..One day at a time. :smile: Goals are great

    Maybe I'll get up early and go down to the school and run on the track. and see how far I can go? and the I'v got a flower bed that need some digging and then there's still the fence I'm working on. by then I'll be to hot out... so inside to clean or get on the wii fit or a DVD workout.... I havn't done eather in a while????? So in other words just keep moving all day long.

    Good luck for tomorrow and keep moving:drinker:

    Our fearless leader is back!!! Yahoo!!

    I'm so glad to hear that your Mom is doing so well & that you're also in the clear!

    I'm getting ready to do some Tae Bo & I've already burned over 200 cals doing cleaning-cize!! I had laundry to fold & added in push ups every two minutes for the first ten minutes then squats every two minutes for the next ten, followed by J&J's every five after that!! It really got my heart rate up & helped me concentrate on getting the laundry folded in a timely manner!!

    Hey Chrystal I'm glad to hear that your mom is feelling better and you must feel so good now knowing that your in the clear.

    I'm am feeling a lot better, I went to the dentist yesterday because I was feeling like crap the pain was just getting worst everyday. I started getting a earache and constant headache with the obvious mouth pain. So as it turns out the blood clot had burst so the nerve was exposed to liquide and food, that's why it was hurting so much and going all the way to my head. So the Dentist inserted some medicated strips into the holes in my gums and the pain just desapeared. I'm am back to myself. I actually cooked and cleaned today. Ahh it feels good!

    Good Morning Ladies!!!

    Sandy- I agree summer is FLYING by!!! Keep up your great work!!!

    Crystal- So sorry to hear about your toe! I hope it gets better soon!!

    Connie- Keep up the great work! I hear ya on the TOM mine is due on Saturday and I am starting to feel crappy and craving stuff I don't usually let myself eat but can't seem to help myself lol.

    Emelie- How are you feeling??

    Well we took Zachary to the foot dr yesterday and he said that he was going to cast it but because of where the break is the cast will not help it. So I have to find him a pediatric size surgical shoe to wear for the next for weeks :ohwell: that should be fun with a 4 year old lol.

    I am going to take a rest day or maybe a couple. My TOM is coming any day now on top of the fact that I feel sick. Low grade temp., feels like strep and ear infection. Hopefully tomorrow I will feel somewhat better and can at least do my yoga. Did that last night and got so dizzy every time Bob had us be almost upside down or in down dog lol. Was not fun!!!

    Hope that you all have a great day and KEEP MOVING!!!

    Amanda :flowerforyou:

    How is everyone??

    Toes and feet getting better???? Amanda good luck with your four year old..I think a cast would be easer to deal with...... but maybe not they can be a pain too... .And I hope you get to feeling better soon too... I went and bought a bunch of borccoli and carrots... and cut them up, so when I just want to eat and eat. I grab them...It's dosen't quite kill the cravings but It help me from total pigging out...:tongue:

    Sandy, your right, 3 1/2, weeks and I have to go back to work.....aaaaaaaaaauuuuugggggghhhh...
    I havn't told you guys yet. but because of problems with our home here. We arn't going to sale it, and so I'm staying here in Co. with the house instead of moving to NM with my hubby....He's only suppost to be down there for 2 year any way. So this weekend Me and Lynsey are going on a road trip to visit family. and then end it in NM to visit Bob before I have to be back here for us to start school. Lynsey's very happy about not making the move.... but we'll be making a lot of trip to NM until Bob gets to come back...... I have a friend who's husband is being sent to Iraq in 2 week. I feel for her, but so glad my hubbie's close enough to visit.... So if you don't hear form me to much next week, I'll be on the road, trying not to gain back everythink ive worked to hard to lose.... this trip is going to be a real test for me.... I think I'll pack my scale. So don't give up on me...:happy:

I think my goal for this next week is just to maintain... I'm packing only healthy foods, and trying not to eat on the raod to much. we'll be gone 10 days, five of those will by on the road. Wish me luck!!!!!

    And have a great day...

NOt ;f;ault.....CHOICE. I CHOSE NOT TO TAKE CARE OF MYSELF. SO I am throwing my hat into the ring YET AGAIN.....

    Well catch me all up!!! YOu all look great on your posts that I scanned by!!! WOO HOO girlys!!! I though cannot say the same thing. BUT that was in the PAST and now I am GOING into the future!!! I am afraid that I can't just jump in with all my vim and vigor! We were moving the last of our stuff out the house this week (we rented it out) and I was carrying a heavy box and slipped and fell. Well more like slipped and bounced back and forth between the truck and the door and then twisted into a pretzel shaped mass of goo on the ground. BUt hey I didn't drop the BOX hahahahaha. So I have been nursing a very tender and sore back for the last 5 days. But I have went out walking yesterday and today. It losens it up a little but if I go to long it gets really sore again....*shakes head* not what I want to feel like right now!!!! and then to top it all off I was hit with the evil TOM so not only sore back but sore with cramps too....grrr.....stupid eve and that stupid apple....we are CURSED I SAY CURSED!!! anyways I am feeling better but a bit sore. I think though that I can push it a little harder.
    tomorrow. :wink: I have decided to get living life again instead of wallowing in my preverbial mud pit.

    ok is it me or are the rest of you missing BOB!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! gosh I need a good dose of him and jillian (but mostly bob) again!!! I wish they would have a summer one too!!! Or just have a channel of just BOB....yeah that's right. Or how about a Bob Harper action figure! HE could be in one of his yummy yoga moves sitting on your fridge or whatnot....hmmm I think I should email BL and voice that opinion....ooooo and they could be in a sound chip! yeah wow it gets better and better.....hahaha.

    I am going to just leave my laptop on mfp all day so I HAVE to log in!! hmm....maybe I could have a bob screen saver:bigsmile: :bigsmile: :bigsmile: oh better not hubby my question......giggles.

    well I am off to plan my day for tomorrow. I do better when I have a list I have found. WHICH also makes me realize that I AM TURNING INTO MY MOTHER AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!! hahah oh well it must be a phase!!!

    alright girly girls talk later I PROMISE
