No More Excuses - Week 7

cah0806

Merry Christmas Everyone!! Hope you are enjoying yourselves...I have been not so good the past couple of days. We went out to lunch (Mexican) and I overdid it yesterday. I've had a few sweets too. But no soft drinks. I could've been worse I guess. I am starting tomorrow off brand new. I am sure I've gained a couple of pounds back.

I think it's mostly a mental urge to eat. I just found out I am about 6 weeks pregnant. I promised myself I am not going crazy eating this time!! I need your support guys. Can you chain my refrigerator?

Talk to you soon...Christy

Christy - what a fantastic Christmas present - many congratulations!! :flowerforyou:

Hope everyone's having a lovely Christmas. I'm NOT counting calories today. I had a ton of veggies (no spuds) and a small amount of chicken for lunch, but I also had bread sauce and dessert and some chocolate (first for ages) - and I enjoyed every single bit - yum yum. I did weigh myself this morning though and still just over 1lb down on last week . . . so let's see if I can keep it going in that direction once I get back on the plan tomorrow.

Going for a long walk tomorrow providing it's not too icy underfoot, then back to swimming on Sunday and Monday before we head back to London and my treadmill.

Take care and keep warm everyone.

Congratulations to you! How exciting. That must make you due in late July or early August???

AmandaJ

Oh I am so excited!!! I got myself a Christmas present that just told me I am 28 pounds overweight and I am 5 years older than I really am! :grumble: :laugh: Okay, I have been having fun with the WII fit!

Did my 1st 1000 calorie workout.

Spent 2 hours shoveling snow. (we got 8 inches last night)

AmandaJ

Wow, 1000 calories!!! Way to go, did you drink a coke?

justjack51

I have 500 calories left tonight, I might just do that.



Too late, I just did it, mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm. I just crossed that off my list.

Now I only have

French Fries
Chips/Salsa
Mexican Dinner
Sausage Biscuit

left on my list.

Funny Story, I asked my 10 year old daughter to make me a coke, and she brought be a giant beer stein full of coke. So cute when they are that age.

I have a 9 year old daughter and yes, they are cute at that age. M is always saying some off the wall funny comment. I really hate to tell you this but I had chips and salsa today. I only had 9 and homemade salsa so I know it is very low in caloiries, I also a tamale and an enchilada, homemade so I know the calories in that too. I also had a coke. I am over and it is Christmas.

Tomorrow I am back on track. I still feel good about this week although the scale may reflect a totally different story. I think you are so awesome and so motivated to be eating so healthy. Be Proud!!!!!

It will get better!!! I despised that little guy when we first met! What is your favorite on it so far? I need to get on ours today since Curves isn't open until Monday!

Good Saturday Morning All;
I truly hope everyone had a wonderful day with family and friends yesterday, and that God Blessed each of you for remembering His son!!!

I don't feel like I did too bad. I did have too many sweets but dinner was good and I ate lots of veggies!!! I am not looking forward to weighing in in the morning, but I know it will be okay. I am forcing myself to stay off the scale today and to get back on track a little today.

My youngest and I will be off to catch some after Christmas sales this morning, and then home to catch up on some housework!!!

Everyone have a wonderful day!

Good morning fellow team!!!! Today is the day after Christmas and the day before the weigh-in. Scary in a way!!! :ohwell:

Hope everybody had a wonderful day and restful week-end. I am catching a cold but think I will venture into the big town today and take the kids shopping. They are dying to spend Christmas money. I would be too if I had any, I suppose. I am dreading the drive, 45 minutes each way, but I think I will get some chores out of them before we leave! :laugh:

tigermom79

Hi All!!! Looks like we all have a lot going on during the family time. I for one am not looking forward to the weigh in. YUCK!!!! However, I did better today. Stayed under calories because I worked out!

I am dieing of thirst, so I think I will go get a couple of glasses of water and settle down in front of the tube to watch a movie!

See everyone in the morning!

Okay.....so I am very pleased with weigh in!!!!! NO GAIN!!!! YIPEEEEEEEE. Still at 164. Seems like I have hit the platuoe that everyone was talking about! But since it is the middle of the holidays and I know I am eating stuff I normally wouldn't, I'm okay with it. I am going to get some excercise in again today.

Have a wonderful Sunday!

Good Sunday morning all...Hope today finds you well. I gained a pound but that is not too bad considering that I ate ham for 3 days in a row. All that sodium has made me terribly thirsty so hopefully I can drink enough water today to stabilize things. My youngest got his Wii and I'm going to get the fitness program for it soon. I boxed with him some last night and it amazed me how fast my heart rate got up. That thing is so neat. I hope everyone has a good weigh-in today. I was scared to get on the scale but it had to be done. The sun is finally shining in SC and it looks like a beautiful day ahead. See ya'll tomorrow.

AmandaJ

I am sitting here scared to get on the scale, don't want to, really don't want to!

Okay I gained, figured I did, but here is what I don't understand. My pants are getting closer and my body is looking better but my weight keeps going up. Hmmmmmmm.

Sodium may be my problem too because all I want to do is stick my head under the faucet and guzzle water. :laugh:

Muscle weighs more than fat!!!! Look at the positives that you are feeling better and "looking" better!

AmandaJ

Hey everybody, the day got away from me and I work tomorrow so I won't get the chart until tomorrow evening. I am sorry!!!!

AmandaJ

I actually got it done, it is only 10:11 pm. SORRY!!!!
