ok weight in at 246.8 which is a 1.8 gain, really expected more since I have been totaly out of it this week. With work, kids and christmas. I know I know this is how it started. got to get back to me

I am at 209.2 pounds this week which is up .4 from last week. Not bad since I exercised for only 315 minutes on 3 days. I did better than I normally do with food when I don't exercise. Everyday I don't exercise I go over in my calories. Never fails. This holiday season is going to be very rough. I am trying to gain only 1 pound a month for the next 2-3 months. Tuesday is my ultrasound and I am so excited. ::bigsmile: I want the DR to tell me the baby is developing normal and that there are no problems. Hopefully we will get to find out if we are having a boy or girl.:happy: I hope everyone is doing well. Have a great day!

Morning you hot peppers!!!

I weighed in a 222.6 this morning. I’m chalking the 1 lb gain to my TOM. It has to be water weight. I just don’t see how I could have gained otherwise.

Today is my last day working until after Christmas. I’m glad to have the time off to get a few things done before Christmas. I am worried a little about my tendency to want to eat when I’m bored. I’ll have to find ways to keep myself busy. My oven’s still broken, so I may not be able to keep busy baking like I want. While that’s good for my waistline, it really kinda makes me mad. I like baking even if I don’t eat whatever it is I make.

Kelly, I hope you’re doing okay today. It sucks that your family doesn’t want to try to understand what you are going through. DH is the same way when I’ve had issues before. He just has the attitude that I should suck it up. He can’t understand that it doesn’t work that way.

Sassie, nice to meet you. I think I’m new since you’ve been gone.

Angie, you have to keep us posted on whether or not it is a boy or a girl!! How exciting!!

Good Afternoon Pepper's,
Still 198 no loss no gain, I guess I can be happy about that through holidays. I did no exercise this week. Between work, classes and functions, I have no extra time. Hope everyone is doing well. Have to get back to work so busy lately. Have a family Christmas brunch tomorrow, I will try to do exercise in the morning and stay with in calories. I know I will get back to business right after the holidays so I will just fight to gain nothing.

I will try to check back in and catch up on the posts.. Everybody stay well. :bigsmile:

sassiebritches

Hi nice to meet ya! Nice job on the 51lbs! I hope to be there soon.

As for now my weigh in is at 255 :frown:

Hi everyone. In case you haven't heard -- my town hit w/2 feet of snow. I'm sure most other NJ towns got similiar snow fall.

On Wednesday I lost my voice. Allergies. Since I started the prescription on Friday, I feel better..... but still no strong voice.

Last week, I did minimally exercise. 100 minutes.

I didn't do my weigh in at Curves on Friday. However, I did weigh myself at home before dr's appt. Scale at home read 167.5 (w/o clothes). Scale at dr's office read 170 (w/clothes). So take either one...'

Due to the snow, my kids school closed on Monday. Now I will be home w/them.

Take care.

good to see everyone checking in and hope the rest can too. i will try to post more later...workin on the cards, wrapping, cleaning and laundry.

yay 2010!

jacque509

Hi all, Sorry to MIA things are really crappy right now. For those of ya that are not a part of my facebook family, we got robbed Saturday night. Not sleeping good, the kids wont stay with me, they are scared. Just not really in the mood for nothing. Am trying to get out of this funk, but I think I am to depressed. Well got to get to work, I will write later

sindyb9

I am sooooo sorry jacque, that is horrible. Everybody all right? You were not home when it happend? If there is anything I can do just let me know.



Have been busy at work, working solo till tomorrow. I will check back in a while. Doing ok with calories, have done no exercise. Twisted my foot cant put full weight on it. But will try to stick to calories.


Please anything I can do jacque, that is so horrible right before the holiday.

jacque509

We were not home, and nobody was hurt, This time they took all my sons stuff so he a little in the dumps. I feel bad because most of his christmas presents are related to stuff taken. But there is some good news and bad news. We found out that they recovered our stuff, so I keep calling the police to see when we can get it and they did arrest the kid that did it. The bad news is he is my neighbor and his mother is harrassing me becuase I got her son arrested. So not feeling all to safe. He is also in a gang and he sells drugs so I am a little nevous

sindyb9

That is horrible. Its good that no one was hurt, but that is bad, her son would not be in trouble if he did not commit a crime. What is wrong with parents these days. Did she really think that you would not report your house being robbed and they would investigate it. How is it your fault. That makes me so mad. I am sorry you are going through this, I dont even want to tell you what I would do to one of my kids if they did bad things. If I can do anything let me know, if you just need someone to talk too. Sending you and your family a big hug. :flowerforyou:

MissVitaVonCherry

PlumCrazyGirl

Jacque - it is truly a shame your holiday season is being ruined w/this mess. Here's wishing you a great 2010.

I've been sick and still not done shopping/wrapping for Christmas. I haven't been to Curves at all this week.

And the 2 feet of snow I got last weekend is still around....

My middle daughter really enjoys baking so I have 6 or 8 different kinds of cookies in my house. I will say I haven't been sticking my hand "in the cookie jar." Last year I would have grabbed a cookie every time I passed through the kitchen. Perhaps 2009 taught me some self control.

Now my kids are off to my ex and Dave finished his lunch so I'm off to buy a few more gifts. I'll get the kids back later tonight.

To all Merry Christmas and may 2010 be good to all of us.
Take care.
Barb

HI Team!

I realize I have not posted the chart from last Fri, the 18th, and not many posted weights yesterday. I will get the chart from last week posted and I guess, I need to know what you all want to do now. Continue on, or start with the new year? We are at like week 15/16 now. I don't have to number the weeks, and we could just go by each Friday's date from now on. For me, there really has not been a time limit while on this journey ( week wise ).....I'm just gonna keep working at it, til I get there, when ever that will be. I had hopes of NOTgaining thru the holiday's but, I HAVE. No, I am not starting over, just gonna get back to what I was doing. So, today I have eaten clean and logged all of my food. I have noticed just from laying around more the last few days how stiff I am getting. Need to get walkin' again and stretchin.

So, just wanted to say hi and I been thinking bout you all. Let me know what your thoughts and ideas are on what to do next. I definately want to keep with the chart. I like the challenges we have too. Maybe try daily ones..... Hope you are all enjoying good times with family and friends.

kelly_a

hope this works...using new computer here. Miss V, I could not find wt for you. These stats are as of 12/18/09, cept Sassie. Let me know of any errors. Sorry this took so long, and thanks for being so patient gang! :flowerforyou:

kelly_a

just trying something diff..sorrreee

nope

kelly_a

still trying to get full chart displayed

kelly_a

[img]p://i884.photobucket.com/albums/ac50/kellya_MFP/shgp3-1.png[/img] still trying

kelly_a

hope you can all see this...I had to resize it to fit on here. not sure why, unless things have changed on the site. am using new pc, so still learning...again.

MissVitaVonCherry

Looks great thanks kelly 213 foe me righ now. Glad that I found the ap for the site.it doesn't allow you to write,just allows you to food log which I need to get back in the habit of doing. I think we should continue on I would love for the te to step it up a notch in the new year I would love to start with a strict hard first challenge. Tell me what you think

kelly_a

hey Miss V.

I agree with you 100 %. I am sooo ready to kick it into high gear here. I seen on one thread where they have a challenge for every day of the week. I don't know if that would be too much for us to do, and of course we can choose to participate or not. I know if I focus on a certain thing usually daily, I do ok, and I like the weekly ones too. Did you have something in mind for the first challenge? I am game for anything and I want to get serious as well. Living a healthy lifestyle has involved many changes for me.... many issues I still battle, so I know I am not *there* yet, I am still here. I guess exercise would be what I always seem to give up on first. In order for me to stay at my smaller size, I have to make that commitment to myself to move regularly. I need to prioritize *me* and understand all of the benefits exercise gives. I would be ok with personal challenges too, and posting them here weekly and checking in daily to keep myself accountable. For me, this site is my #1 source of support, thanks to all of you! I am ready to take full advantage of all MFP has to offer again.....

jacque509

Hope everyone has a good holiday!!! Kelly I am so ready to get started and motivated again. Hey I think the daily thing sounds great! It sounds like something I needed. So I say lets try it.
