    Good morning sixers!!

    I made my goals yesterday! But I did learn one valuable lesson (of which I will probably have to re-learn at some point knowing me! :wink: ) I logged all my food and learned that I shouldn't eat Mexican and pizza in the same day. I was 1400 cals over! But that was one day, and that wasn't one of my goals yesterday. Today is a new day. Today I will log everything, drink 9 cups of water, and eat fewer calories than yesterday.

    The trim pieces are done!! The living room floor is complete!!! DH has to get new nonskid feet to put under the couch & love seat before we can put the living room back together. He's supposed to do that after work today, but I just got a message from him that he's going to look at an HDTV he found on Craigslist first. He's looking for one for our bedroom. I'm hoping to be able to have my treadmill back up and running tonight before bed.

    Sorry I don't have time right now for personals. I got a couple free minutes here at work & thought I'd pop in! Happy Wednesday! :flowerforyou:

    I started logging my food again yesterday. It's been a long time since I did that and I like the changes they made to the Food Log. Makes things a little easier. I skipped lunch yesterday since I was pretty full from breakfast and snack. Made a taco salad for dinner, but then I found myself hungry again at 9pm and had a bowl of cereal. I really need to get most of my calories in earlier so I'm not hungry later. So, I ate my oatmeal earlier this morning - that should help. It's raining again here. Someone needs to remind mother nature that this is the desert and we don't do rain!! It makes me feel gloomy.

    Cathy - I agree with you. It is so hard to motivated anyway - if you feel like working out on your rest day, then go for it. Hope your DH is feeling better soon.

    Kristin - Great weight loss this week and great job on getting up and working off those extra calories!! Wow - an hour and a half. Maybe I need to start reading Twilight - I have it here but just haven't started it.

    Em - Great weight loss this week. Don't beat yourself up about gaining some back. We've all been there and I didn't stop at just 20 pounds like you did. It's great you got your motivation back.

    Pam - Great weight loss this week! Is your DH feeling better?

    Lorna, PrimalB, AmyLou, Amy S, Nicole, Amy, Kel - Great weight loss this week!! Wow we have a lot of Amy's!

    Alison, Lauryn, Cathy, Tamm, Tiff, oh and me - Hang in there!! We'll get our little gains off by next week I'm sure.

    Now - I'm heading to the treadmill. Have a great day everyone!!

    WOAHHH SO MANY POSTS!!! YAY! this is great!!

    So I guess I will do me, then personals! haha I finally have time! I have a couple hour break in between classes, although i need to go do a hw assignment before 5 haha.

    SO I did decide to go to the gym last night, my Bf and i got into a bit of an argument so I decided that I would rather take my anger out on a tred mill then out on him. So I went to the gym, did 10 minutes on the cross country ski machine, burned 80 calories. Then decided to do the tred mill, I hadnt been planning on doing my c25k last night because it was suppose to be a day of rest, so I got on the tred mill and started walking, well that wasnt enough for me, so 7 or so minutes in I put on my podcast and did C25K instead. So 25 + minutes later making for a total of 34 minutes work out, I did 2.5 miles, and felt a LOT better. I repeat, I DID 2.5 MILES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WAAHOOOO It really wont be long before I can run that 1.5 miles in under 12 minutes for the coast guard! So then I played some basketball/volleyball with my family for like 35 minutes, then my brother and i decided we would go into the pool just to cool off, well we got into water basketball and went all out! I mean tackling, dunking, FULLY competitive for like 15 minutes before they closed and we had to get out. So I came home, and was passed out by 11:30... haha. I was TIRED.

    So this morning, got up, took a NICE long shower, ate a pear, went to class, stopped at Mr. Pita got a new kind of pita for me called the Hawaiian chicken. It was taste, so came home and decided to update my food stuff, and the hawaiian pita wasnt in the food bank!!! EEK so I got to enter it myself! wahoo! So i have officially contributed to MFP!!! I am thinking I will go run again today, do C25k, I know that we arent suppose to run like this everyday because we could hurt our knees, pull a muscle, or get shin splints... but last night was cheating (oh i burned over 250 cals too!) So I will do it here in a little bit, then rest tomorrow and then do it friday after zumba again.

    So ya!
    how is everyone else!!
    B (doing personals next!)

So I need to make time for them VERY soon, problem is that I am SOOOO incredible busy... I am hoping I can make it out to see all of mah friends on Thursday though.

    Lula- CONGRATS on the 1lbs LOSS! that is awesome! YOU SOOOO DESERVE IT!!!

    K well I hope I got everyone, and if I didnt you are TOTALLY in my heart and mind! So I think I am going to take a quick nap, wait for my brother to come home, then go to the gym with him... Then go to class @ 6... so hope everyone has a good day I will def. Try to check in before I hit the sack tonight.

    I am new to this thread and trying to keep up with everyone. Wow, you gals are soooo busy. Kudos!!!!

    Kistinbee- Thanks for doing the list. You are really good at being motivational. I always feel better after being on here.

    Amy- Do you make your own pizza/crust? Pizza is one of my biggest weaknesses. My favorite pizza---- Large!

    Anyway, thanks everyone for sharing.

    evening all..

    what a lazy day. glad i got the workout in. DH now lives in the bathroom and bed. sometimes he will make it to the couch. he tried to eat dinner. sure hopes he doesn't pass this on to me. i haven't been sick, sick since i quit smoking. i have had not feeling good days, but, not down right sick. neither has he. we quit together.

    i want to eat out of bordom. keeping my hands busy so i don't use them to put things in my mouth. when i have these craving, just having a diet soda really helps. i cut my soda intake from many cans a day to one glass a day. these are the nights i wish bedtime would come sooner.

    well, think i will surf around the internet

    later

    LOL. Thanks for the support ladies! I'm so glad we have so many post to read. I love hearing about everyones life. LETS Keep the posting up YAY sixers!!! I did realize that I have not lost ONE LB since I started birth control in JULY/Aug. I know I want my hormones to be in control and having PCOS can be complicated BUT My main goal is removing the weight. So, I'm gonna give it two more months and if Im not satisfied with the results, I will consult another doctor about other treatments (I'm taking a diuretic, Birth Control and using Expensive Facial cream for hair growth) all because my body wants to make to much testosterone! GEE WIZZZ. LOL. Bottom line, I'm hanging in there. Its always been hard to remove weight but at least I was getting it off. RESULTS are bond to come as long as I keep moving!!!

    Yesterday I tried water aerobics, and its not for old ladies anymore, I felt silly doing it and thought to myself.. I should have done the elliptical BUT when I got out the pool I felt sore, I mean the same day and today I'm resting bc my body is aching. I guess the water resistance was making my body WORK! SO this will be on my weekly class schedule until I move. YAY!!!

    Tiff- Good luck with your test! :) You can do it!!!

    All other SIXERS- I love your motivation and thanks for always listening and supporting me!

    Take care,
    Tamm

    Sandy - You just reminded me of the yummy pizza I used to make. I used to buy Trader Joe's whole wheat pizza dough. I added a little olive oil to the top, mozzarella, ham or salami, pear slices and arugula. So good darn it - now I'm bummed that I'm on no carbs. Carbs are evil - carbs are evil. :laugh: But I'm doing well on my almost no carbs and with logging - not to mention, I'm already feeling better.

    Doing good on the exercise thing too - I had a few minutes earlier so walked for 10 min on the treadmill, then I did a workout DVD. Planning to hop back on treadmill sometime tonight.

    amylou - AWESOME on the job. Sigh of relief. South Dakota huh? Lots of skiing?

    tiff - do great on your test!

    Kel - Amazing on the Shred. You can do this new challenge today!

    Tamm - I've always wondered about water aerobics. Thanks for posting. I might have to give it a try.

    Cathy - Sorry about the hubby. Tell him he can only blow you kisses. Great job on getting to the gym despite having a sicky at home.

    kistinbee, izzypup - HI :)

    B - It's so cool you are doing C25K. I started it a few weeks ago. Just a warning. Running can become very addictive.

    amyls8710 - hope you have a great time with your friends

    emmie110 - Good job on the logging calories. It's always a adjustment when we eat. You'll get into the swing of things.

    amypyr - glad to hear things are coming along

    For all those I missed, sorry :(

    Work, work, work for me until volunteering at son's library class. Then a quick jump into the gym before picking them up from school. Then go, go, go for the evening. Both hubby and kids are going to be gone all weekend. I LOVE my family, but am truly looking forward to some down time. Have a "no hubby/no kid" night planned on Friday with some girlfriends. Shooting pool, drinking a beer, and going to a movie that isn't animated. Woohoo.

    Have a great one ladies!

    B- hope you enjoyed your rest day yesterday ..... i took one as well.... i think true strength starts knowing when to rest and when to push yourself harder ! good luck with day 3 of the c25k ..... and i think you should do a higher intensity day 4 : ) and start fresh with week 2 on monday !

    Sandy-- lol .... i usually when its me and my husband make the pillsbury crusts that you can calorie easy ...... but we just ordered a pizza from out..... i just limit my number of pieces and ate a spinach salad with it ! I think things take steps.... so i said if i go from eating lots of pieces to just a limited amount like 2 or 3 slices (theseare small pieces that they cut them into) they equal maybe 1 sbarros piece of pizza if you put the three together ! and it was full of veggies !!! haha maybe next time u eat pizza try a MEDIUM hahah ! and then go to a small..... and then to half a small ! :) !!!!! it takes time

    Cathy-- thats great that you quit together ! i wish my hubby would quit smoking ...... sorry hubby is still so sick and being stuck at home is a pain...... how did you do before bed ???

    Tamm-- awww as it was said a few days ago.... our bodies are strange and mysterious and COMPLICATED things haha..hang in there.... but i agree that if you dont get the results you want soon then def..go to the doctor !!!!

    Kel--- GOOD lUck girl on level three of the shred ! you can do it ! just listen to your body! i do another one of my firm workouts today...... im excited !

    Gonabfit-- good luck for the study marathon......

    amylou-- thats awesome .... CONGRATS !

    lorna--- some mommy time sounds awesome !! ENJOY !

    Today is my firm day 2 ..... im walking in between the firm days ....... and doing the wii fit ..... as much as possible.... !!!!! My goal for this week is to get my water in daily ....... be under calories every day as last week........ get my three firm workouts in....... and walk at least three times.... and do the wii every day for at least 10 minutes.... !!!!!

    Hoping to see big results again ! but i also understand sometimes when your losing you start to gain muscle... so whatever the scale says ! im happy with !

    DH still sick. i think he needs diapers. he carries a towel with him, he ate ALL my sugar free jello and pudding. so i now have to go get more and the washer is already running. change sheets today and clean bathrooms and spray lots of lysol everywhere. i don't want it.

    i think today i will do a WATP 3 mile tape at home, shower dress and head to the store. he can't kept anything in. no lulabelle he can't even blow me kisses. i don't want his germs LOL.

    washer just stopped. better get it in the dryer and start another.
