Speak for yourself! Who's more mature???? I refuse that title young lady!!

So, I could not take the no scale thing one more week. My son left the scale out yesterday so I *had* to step on. Good surprise!
I think I am going to only weigh once every 3 or 4 weeks though. At my lower rate of loss, it is much more satisfying to see a number move once a month than to see nothing every week. Also, I've learned that I am even *more careful* when I don't have a scale. I used to be "out of sight, out of mind". Then, when I was weighing DAILY I would kind of use that as a guage if I was eating too much. Okay, didn't gain today so I can eat good. Without the scale this time, I was much more careful because I didn't know if I had gained. SO!

It was an awesome experiment, I didn't die or go crazy, and it ended well.

Hey guys!

Thanks for the welcome back's everyone! I'm definitely glad to be back. I feel good so far. I stayed in my calories and even worked out yesterday! burned 425 cals. Yippy!

Andrew - 111!!! Holy crap. Awesome job, you so rock. :drinker: :drinker:

Lynnie & April - I could totally see you guys having huge blowout parties. You both just seem like party girls! I used to party like that... Ahh the good ol' days. :laugh: :bigsmile:

Everyone else - Hi!!!!!

Well, I guess I'm off to get some work done. I'm inching my way toward a promotion and I'm hoping that by the end of this month it'll be mine. :devil: So I gotta impress the boss lady.

PEACE OUT!

Awesome job Beth! Congrats!

April and I do like to have parties and it's always a good time. Heck we have a good time alone floating around in the pool or sweating our butts off on the bicycles.
Here is a picture yesterday. Don't be shocked, all of our pics yesterday were just "in the raw" meaning no makeup, no hair, no diva poses. Just us having fun. Hope you enjoy.






The last one is my favorite. Yes, it shows my big ole horsie teeth, no makeup and flat hair. But my little sister peeking out behind me while I am laughing my *kitten* off at our silliness is priceless.

Well, at the risk of sounding like Dave-- I like you better with no makeup.

You're both beautiful!

Marla64

And I stopped my scale fetish on the command of my friendly wolf personal trainer--

The water/hormone "two pounds up, three down, four up, one down," crap gives me fits-- I'll hop on maybe next week and see what's up.

Til then-- I'll fartlek, run, eat well-- whaddyagonnado?

ksproston

Amen Marla!

Vanessa414

Awesome job Beth!!!

renae77

Hey ya'll! Got my hair colored today! Woohoo! And that makes me feel better and got it cut off too. I will have to take a pic and post it. Only problem is that my face is peeling, my forehead, and it looks kinda icky!

Beth-way to go girl!

Lynnie & April- you 2 are gorgeous! Keep on having fun! I can throw some great parties too! We should combine them and have a great big huge FUN party!

Hello to everyone else and hope you are having a great day!

Hi everyone! Looks like good times had by all! :flowerforyou:

Just too tired to write much but wanted to send love your way:flowerforyou:

Marla64

so, I have poison ivy up and down my arms and legs from my adventure--

:noway: :noway:

Whaddyagonnado?

Whaddyagonnado?

Oh no! Poison was my first thought when you said you walked through the field, I don't get it but I lived growing up with cornfields on both sides of my back yard. Those things breed poison, big time.

Still enjoying my vacation, feeling a bit pudgy and not eating well, but I will get back on track next week when I get back home. I can only control so much when I'm not at home and when I'm not cooking the meals myself. All is well, it's all good.

One more day at my parent's house then off to the Poconos. We added white water rafting to our trip, it ought to be an 'adventure'. Today we went flat water tubing, it was alright. A little boring, slow moving, but ok.

Hope everybody had a good weigh in, I opted out since I'm not at home and don't have my scale.

Have fun fartleking. Can you add an -ing to that word?

Equal opportunity word, we're learning--

Noun, adjective, verb-- whatev--

Marla- this is what I think of when I think cornfield. This is my youngest and newphew running around this week at my parent's house. To the left of the yard is the same- corn all around.

renae77

Hi everyone! I checked to see if we had a new week posted but I haven't seen one yet so I'm posting in here. I'm back to work tomorrow after being off for 14 days! I dread it! It's not that I have been sitting on my butt for 2 weeks because I have been totally busy around the house but it's just WORK! Ugghh!! Ya'll know what I'm saying. Lol! Hope you are all doing great this week. My weight hasn't budged but that is good and means it didn't go up either.

So what is the NEW challenge for this week?

Marla64

Lori, how cool-- last year we had corn, this year it's wheat. We have a tree/rock barrier, though, so it's really very private.

we're on a cul-de-sac, and have hedges on one side, the corn field on the other and trees behind us blocking the neighbors to the rear-- it's really lovely.

lynniejones

No make up? really Marla? *shudder* I have to say I disagree with you. Imma Imma Imma Diva. I-I- Imma Imma Diva.

My parents live in the country, I love it here. My kids really love it here. They have been outside from the time they wake up until it's dark and it's time for bed. It's been a great week for them. They run through the grass with no shoes and play, play, play. The weather has been high 70's low 80's and no humidity. It's been quite wonderful.

My parent's house is back a stone driveway, there are 3 houses- one that is my parent's, one that is my uncle and one that used to be my grandparents- oh how I miss them! It was wonderful growing up here, like our own little world. There are other houses closer to the road, but neighbors are not close and it's fairly private and I love it.

We love our house and I've gotten used to Florida but it's too hot to go out and do much of anything, I wouldn't even want the kids outside for hours and hours on end. Not to mention I think you would cut up your feet running barefoot through our crunchy, weedy grass.

Nothing like home.........

Hello All!
Sorry I have been M.I.A. this last week or two. I have been having an amazing time! I have a new man in my life (only been 3 weeks) at it's at the ga-ga stage where we are spending every spare moment together. Fun!!!! It has been a long, long time since I have felt the butterflies for anyone. So anyway, that's been the reason for my absence!

I hope everyone is doing well!

Evening black team.


Looks like were having a quiet week. lol I've been having a tough food week. Not from the eating too much perspective. My loss has kinda stalled out and I think that my practice of not eating my excersice calories is catching up with me. I am thinking I might be overtraining a bit. Problem is I am very regimented and am a creature of habit. So now that I am trying to eat the additional calories I am not doing the best job at getting them in early enough and find myself having to either eat a crap load at night or just let the defecit go. Stupid problem I know. I'm sure I'll get it figured out over the next few days. lol

Anyway I hope everyone is doing well. Miss you guys bunches. I'm sure we will all get back to our chatty selves sooner of later. lol
