I have been under my cals BUT they have not been healthy cals:huh: ! Fitness has been good, 1 hr od P90X Kenpo X yesterday and today was 40 minutes on the elliptical and then 1 hr of P90X stretching! It is soooo good to read all your words but I won't even go near posting personals, I would have everybody messed up!!! Hang in there group, another day done!0

OMG Girls Here is the Shred report for the day......Day 1 level 3 = 21 days of shredding.
Yes I did it and boy did I feel like the biggest KLUTZ ever. I know it takes a day or two or three to get the hang of a new workout. But you talk about having 2 left feet. LOL Plus I think I am trying to have TOM. At my age I never know if it's really here or not. I feel a little bloated the past few days and a bit short with others. An some what spotty, so I think its here or on its way.
I am so happy that the weather is sunny today. So I am back to work. YEA. Tomarrow I will have a full day of yard cleanings at three different customers. Today I dug up 3 fruit trees and replanted a bunch of flower pots for my customer. And did storm clean up. I burned approx 500 cals just at work for 3 hours. Tomarrow with the type of work I will be doing I should burn double that. One of the benifits of working outside.
I would love to do personals but I need to get some of my chores complete before dinner time.
Love to you all

As for the TOM your symptoms are me EXACTLY! hate it, are you hot flashing too?
I wish I could come help with all your 'outside' work, I love that type of labor!!! I helped plant OVER 500 trees this past summer(they were not small tress either) for a friend and I burned lot's of calories! I always feel so accomplished at the end of the day when i do that type of work! My husband uses me as his hired hand here on the farm and I go with him trucking grain lot's of times to help move the augers and shovel!! You would really think that what with all I do that I would be a stick but no God gave me muscles and a boy figure! LOL
Now think of me when you are moving all the debree!0 -
Just checking in. Not alot of time. Amylou congrats on the job. It always feels nice and exciting. Amy, thanks for the pizza info. I have tried the Kashi pizzas and they are not that bad. Great nite everyone!0

Just a quick pop in.
Cathy - Hope your hubby is feeling better. He's giving you a workout just by taking care of him. Take care of yourself too. Being stuck in the house can't be fun either when there is so much food saying "eat me". But you are doing great.
Kel - WOW. You amaze me with the Shred. That scares me.
vhuber - Good job on staying under the calories. Sometimes, we just have those days where a cookie tastes better than an apple. But your exercise and energy no doubt will cancel that out. Way to go.
To everyone else -
I got eight hours of sleep last night and have no idea what to do with myself. Kids are off school today, so out we go this morning to teach people the bible and a yummy lunch. Then off they go for the weekend with their "other father" and I go to the gym. Tonight is "girl's night" for me as my hubby is supposed to be going camping (if it doesn't snow). So shooting pool, movie, beer, and good friends. Very much needed.
Hope you all have a productive and happy Friday!0 -
morning...
i just need to vent, might be long, just pass if you want...
DH is still sick with the diarrhea. he can't even make it to the bathroom. today is day 3. yesterday when he called in and left a mssg at office. let me set up the company. owner(c), owners wife(a) who does paperwork, HR stuff, owners wifes bff(j) who is front desk. than there is DH and one other guy(g) who are pest techs. that's it just the 5. so yesterday afternoon (g) calls DH and tells him check your email on your blackberry(from work). email says that DH, (g) only get 3 sick/personal days a year and that they need to call their appts for that day and than call either (c), (a),(j). well, here it is again day 3. he was up every 2 hrs throw the night. he has called (g). tried calling one of the others. she didn't answer her phone. i told him they weren't going to. they don't have to be in the office until 9. (g),DH have to begin appts as early as 8. there was no sick policy in place. they also said in the email that they may have lost 3 accts because dh didn't call his appts wednesday morning when he was sick. these people arn't going to anywhere. they were upset. dh didn't know he had to do the calling. thought that's why they had (j) who takes care of front desk and appt. (g) also got sick tuesday night when it all started. they both did a home show last weekend, both ate at hardees both had the same thing. except DH had it again sunday morning. tells me food poisioning. i think Dh may have ecoli. so now dh is getting his certificate from work and begin looking for a new job. they won't hire anyone else. they seem to always change the rules to suit them. both dh and (g)
are so frustrated. (j) has them take time to help her do her filing and even left a stack of folders on their desk and said when you get a chance scan these. here they worked the week, the weekend show, and another week. they really need to hire someone else. two people were working there, but, they left awhile back.
i was hoping to be heading to the gym by now. but, have to wait for him to call work and than call the doctors. he's going in today. so, will adjust to all that.
thanks for reading. need to go and check on him.

Good morning!
Cathy...Awe...***BIG HUG*** I am SO sorry to hear about everything you're going through with your husband! You'd think that people would be more understanding AND more organized! I hope you get it all figured out (as I'm sure you will) and that your husband gets all better quickly!!! I'll be thinking of you guys today!
Lulabelle...8 hours! I'm SO jealous!!! Kadence slept HORRIBLY last night! She woke me at 1:00 and then again at 3:30 to eat! Then I woke up late and fed her again at 6:00 before I scrambled out the door to work! I SO hope she gets over this waking at night soon!! Have a good day with your kiddos today!
Kel...Way to go on the shredding! 21 days is AWESOME!!! And yeah, don't worry about being klutzy! You're doing so good!
AmyLou...YAY FOR THE NEW JOB!!!!!!! Sorry I didn't get to reading posts until this morning! CONGRATULATIONS!!!! I am so happy for you!!!!
To everyone else...Good morning!!!!
I got in a quick run last night and stayed well within calories! I weighed in this morning and unofficially am down!!!! Won't post weight until Tuesday (as I always do) but was excited to see a lower number! Planning on a successful weekend!
Gonna be in meetings all morning, and then leaving early today! If I don't get back on before I leave, have a great weekend!!!!!0 -
WOW! I was gone for one day and I can't keep up with all the action! Warning. this may be a long update / vent
Anyways the conference went great, I got a ton of great feedback on my research.... so that is good... but the food, oh the food. I didn't log what I ate yet... but I am sure it was bad (2) slices of french toast, 1/2 a chicken salad wrap, and a massive bowl of chilli with cheese and onions, a cup of coffee... (2) beers (at the gathering after)... I did avoid the treat tray... :blushing: but that is about all I avoided. UGH. I feel horrible... no exercise, sitting all day, and lots of unhealthy food... :grumble:
So, as a life update I am doing the final walk through on the house that the BF and I are buying... we bought a forclosed property... as we don't make much and it was all we could afford in a safe area... anyways I put the offer on the house 6 MONTHS ago, and it has been he** ever since... about 2 weeks ago we were about to close and the night before people broke in and trashed the place... it was really horrible, and ended up costing me and the BF a bunch of money (that we really don't have) to fix... so the rents are helping me out with closing costs to make up for what i had to pay for reappraisals, and the repairs that need to be done to the furnace... I am really thankful that we are able to buy a house right now, but this process has been incredibly frusterating and stressful... it isn't over yet, but hopefully I will be moved in by next week. Which means after 4 years of long distance BF and I will get to live together...
Amylou.... CONGRATS on the fellowship!!!!!!!! :flowerforyou:
Amy.... CONGRATS on the offical job offer... :flowerforyou:
I don't have a ton of time to catch up right now... but I just wanted to say hi, give you guys a quick update and say congrats to everyone for being so motivated and commited to this!!!! :flowerforyou:0 -
ps. chipper, I had a wicked stomach bug this past weekend (lasted for 3-4 days) I hope the DH gets well! Best wishes to you guys!!!0

Blah :sick: Morning sixers.
So I wanted to see my friends last night, so I made it happen. Well one of my friend's friends was celebrating their 21st b-day. And well there was obviously a party. I had over 900 calories left last night so i though, sure a beer or two would be fine. Well two beers and two shots in, I was already feeling it and I realize that I pretty much hadnt ate anything all day and that I made a poor life choice by choosing to drink on an empty stomach. So yes sixers after a night of partying I am feeling sick this morning. I dont have a headache thank god, but my tummy is extremely effed up. So I missed Zumba this morning. I am thinking I will be feeling better in a couple hours though so I can go work out after work. I hope every one else is feeling better than i am this morning! :indifferent:
I will be back in a little bit to talk about yesterday and do personals! Hopefully once the room stops spinning!

Sorry I have not been on the last week. My husband got sever virtigo and pretty much was like a baby and needed 24/ 7 care for a couple of days. No exercise this week, not enough water, not enough sleep. well, not making my mini goal of under 200 by Feb 1 but I am okay with that. will update my goals to be 189 lbs by March 1.
Starting Weight - Dec 1 - 215
Current Weight - Jan 29 - 202
Goal Weight by March 1 - 189 lbs
Final Goal Weight by Dec 1 - 125 maintained0 -
B. Feel better! One night I knew I was going to the bar with friends so I decided to save as many calories as I could... ended up sick as a dog before the night was over... now, when I know I am going out I just try to get in some extra exercise in the am... so I don't end up drinking on an empty stomach... worst feeling in the world... :sick: I am sure you will feel better today!!!0

Hello Sixers! I am feeling much better! Thanks for the well wishes Em haha!
So I thought I would do a couple personals, Dont have time for all of em but I can do a few!
Em- ya TOTALLY learned my lesson on that one. haha Boo to the house situation! I certainly hope things are finally going to come to a close on that! I understand how frustrating it is looking for a ssafe place to live! I will be doing it in Florida in the fall, not looking forward to that!
Kristin - HAVE A GOOD WEEKEND! That loss will def. stick if you keep up the good work!!
Cathy - *hugs* I hope things work out!!!!! I really hope he feels better!!!!
lula- HAVE FUN!!!! haha have a drink for me!
Kel - KEEP UP THE AWESOME SHREDDING!!! haha and I am the biggest Klutz in the world!
Amy S - how are you today!?!?
And to the rest of you sixers I hope you are having a fun and healthy friday! and I hope we all show losses for tuesday!!!! HAVE GOOD WEEKENDS!0 -
Hey ladies!! Thanks for the support. I'm at work reading the post. Glad everyone is doing well. I feel tired today! Not enough sleep over the past two days! I'll come and do personal this weekend! YAY, I don't go back to work until Wed so I get to have some personal time w/ my sixers!!!
Cathy- Yes you are right they do use it for PCOS. My mom says that what I need to take.
Take care,
Tamm0 -
Hey Kids,
No shred report today. Sorry. I worked my butt off today at work and burned over 1600 cals today. I am tired, sore, and down right beat. I just got in a few ago. I made my way down to feed the cows and now its almost dark. I haven't touched my house yet or done any of my chores. So far I have only eaten 440 cals today, so I think a glass of wine or two might be in order tonight.
Just a few personals as Tony just walked in from his day.
Cathy - Hang in there girl. I know its hard right now. It sounds like your hubby works for the same type of idiots that Tony works for. They screw with his pay and job all the time. He works for a cousin and has for about 9 years. And they are always making things impossible. Hopefully your hubby will be better soon. Kudos for still trying to get your workouts in. I sure hope you don't catch it.
Amylou and Amy (pdx) Congrats to both of you on your new jobs!!!!!
Amyls Keep up the great workout. I bet your weigh in will be awesome this week.
Verda Hey you must be my carbon copy. LOL Yes - Hot flashes, night sweats, and built the same - muscles and a tom boy additude or should I say country girl additude. I live on 10 acres in a small town in the serria foothills just below the snow level. Even though we get snow 4 to 5 times a year. I have a small landscape business and could use someone like you that is willing to get out there and do it. (aka GET R DONE) Are you close by? If so be here on Monday 8am.....oxoxo
Lula Enjoy your night with the girls. And also the quiet time after. Can't wait to here the details.
Would love to do more personals but Tony keeps trying to talk with me while I am typing so I sould go. I also need to start dinner. Will check in tomarrow. And yes tomarrow there will be a shred report.
Love to you all

~~~~~
I am so proud .... i went on date night with my hubby and had planned to eat something a little unhealthy..... but fate stepped in .... and the restaurant had buffett tonight which meant NO set menu .... but the buffett was nothing but healthy foods so i was able to have a salad, one dinner roll, one slice of roast beef, 1/2 cup of mushroom rice, fresh green beans and a small 1/2 slice of pineapple upside down cake ... for LESS calories then what i originally was going to order ! so yay i ended up UNDER calories instead of over and feel great because i went out and ate healthy
WOOHOOo !
tomorrow is FIRM workout day ! and my flirty girl fit should be here next week soemtime ! cant wait to try that out !
Cant wait for Tuesdays weigh in ! i gotta drink LOTS of water this weekend !0 -
thanks for asking Amy.... I am fine but I am at the age where I never know if Tom is coming over... LOL Every 4 months, 2.5 months, whenever it wants to. By the way Tom is back! Like a bad dream! So I am crampy and crabby. Worked extremely hard this week and missing my very best friend who moved away. OOOOHHHH so moody! YUK I don't really turn to food for comfort. In fact it just the opposite. I don't eat. But I did today and almost made it to my calories goal. Yesterday when i got home i was tired, it was 8:30, and I was over 500 calories under. So I ate cheerios at 9 at nite.
Sorry I am venting right now. Frustrated!
Sandy0 -

It's snowing here!! They're calling for 4 inches which means that for us, we're snowed in tomorrow. That's great news for the kids, and great news for my living room! It will finally be put back together since dh won't be able to come up with an excuse . . . at least, not a good one!
Finally got back on my exercise DVD today. I did the warm-up and circuit 1. I also walked to pick up the kids from school. Why is it I know how good I feel after exercising, but I still have problems most days getting motivated enough to exercise?!:grumble: I guess since it's not a habit yet.
I don't have time for personals tonight, but since we're "snowed in" I should be on here tomorrow. Have a great night! :flowerforyou:0 -
Kel & Verda-- id be toasting for sure if you could say goodbye to tOM forever hahahaha !
Amy *pyr*- aw i saw the big snow storm over the news..... yay for DH being stuck home so he can get the living room back to sorts ! its strange to think people get snowed in (i live in the bahamas ... ive never seen snow) good for you for getting thru the warm up and circuit 1 ... its better than nothing ! im proud of you ! i think once it becomes a habit ....
AFM:
today is my FIRM day ..... !!!! yay !0 -
I agree with saying "goodbye" to this female crap for good!!!Kel & Verda-- id be toasting for sure if you could say goodbye to tOM forever hahahaha !

Amy? You live in the Bahama's? I will treat you to snow and you can treat me to balmy weather ok? What and When do you get "BAD" weather? Is it two seasons? Sunny and Rainy? Have you lived on the island your whole life? I would love to be on one for even a whole month! LOL I hope your FIRM day goes well and you go for a nice walk for cardio and sunshine. I can just feel the sunshine mmmmm how nice!! Have a good day!
Verda0 -
Amy.... Enjoy the firm today!!!
I wish I could get rid of my TOM, Ive been plotting since it came!!! LOL.
WE have snow in VA so I'm off to play some!!!
Ttyl love ya sixers!!
Tamm0 -
Kel, Is this a toast to menopause? How much wine have you had? LOLWell Izzypup- welcome to my world and it souns like Verda world too! HERES TO MENOPAUSE...i think? oxox
Kel
thanks for the thoughts.... I don't usually care about it but you never know when Tom will visit. Of course the waking up at 3:30 in the morning sweating like you just worked out for an hour. It is also the only time i really have cravings... And it's chocolate, but i just have one guaridelli square in a day and just for a few days I agree with you all... TOM should just go away. He's like the crappy boyfriend who keeps calling. He just calls less and less now. LOL
Tamm- St. Louis missed the snow but we got the cold and the clouds.
Amy- Is the firm the rocker thing? I just bought one and just started to try it. I still have to be minimal because of my foot but OMG my butt was sore. Does anyone know the calories it burns? i treated like a 4-6 inch step aerobic.
Chat later everyone.... Sandy0 -
Happy Saturday Sixers!!!
So I have had a very unusual 24 hours. I got asked to babysit last night, then she cancelled so I went hope intended to take a short nap, ended up sleeping til 1030! which is 30 minutes after my gym closes
So I didnt make it to the gym!
Well I woke up early, got to the gym a little early for Zumba! I made a friend :P and I had a GREAT zumba class, it was REALLY packed today too!!! SO MANY PEOPLE! Well I forgot my ipod at home so i couldnt do my W1D4 of C25k so instead i took a great shower, and came to work. Well I forgot to pack food so I am starving right now.
Well I was suppose to babysit tonight, and i just got a text saying they had to cancel! It appears their son has a fever and an upper respiratory infection!!! Poor baby! he is only two! awwwww
So for the first time in FOREVER I have a saturday night off and I have NO idea what to do with myself! I know I am going to go to the gym to do my run, but besides that I really dont know what to do with myself! haha.
tomorrow mum and i are going grocery shopping, Plus I have to do LOTS of cleaning, as I have a friend coming over and staying the night so she can come try Zumba with me on Monday morning!
So I am going to do personals here in a little bit need to finish up some work first haha!
