    Hello everyone,

    Eek sorry you are getting rain and you missed the snow. My friend just returned from an Alaska cruise and said it rained the whole trip.

    Welcome Kizzym, we usually have a weekly challenge to watch a particular eating pattern and change gradually.

    Hey everybody :)

    I'm super pumped becasue summer has officially begun for me! And I wanted to tell youabout my job I'm doing for the summer. Pretty much, I ride around on my bicycle and put pesticides (mosquito) in the drains by the side of the road. It's a great find job-wise in my opinion. Not only am I gonna be active, but they're also paying me 12 bucks an hour... :D I''m excited for it to start!!!

    Hope everyone's doing well.

    Thanks EEK!!

    today is the first time in a long time I have been under in my food diary. I just got so lazy and I just stopped caring! Its winter in NewZealand. So its very cold! all I want to do is have some warm comfort food!!!

    How is your tooth? Has the oral surgery made it alot harder to eat?

    I hope all you northern hemisphere'ers are enjoying the summer.. Its a long winter down here

    :yawn:

    Im sorry to hear about your grandfather! I hope you have been looking after yourself. Dont beat yourself up if you slipped with the food diary. I have been away for a while and I have put on a lot more weight (MY PANTS ARE TIGHT AGAIN). My fiance just came home from hospital so I have been emotionally eating for a while.. Sometimes you just have to get through somehow.. but the key is to eventually pick yourself up again and keep going..

    Dont give it!!

    Hi Myth and Chipgal
    How you lovely ladies doing? It does seem like we all have had a few ups and downs the last couple of months.
    I hope you both are doing well and staying motivated.

    Take care

    Hey everybody :)

    Where's Myth? She hasn't logged on for a while... :cry: Well anyhow, Hope everybody had a good weekend! I went on vacation to Osoyoos with my family and enjoyed the sun (and ice cream... oops. lol).

    Today was the first day of my new job! Spent four and a half hours on my bicycle! I only logged an hour and forty minutes though. I really doubted that I had burned over a thousand calories, which is what MFP calculated. I think they're a bit generous with the whole calories burned thing. The weather wasn't too warm which was good... no heat stroke lol.

    As for the oral surgery I healed pretty well. It did make eating hard for a while, and of course I wasn't very hungry for a couple days after anyways. I think I consumed almost a whole can of ginger ale on the first day. Not exactly 1200 calories... haha. But I'm back to normal now. :)

    Have a good week everybody! :flowerforyou:

I say NOT!!! SO now I have to go to dermatologist. I do have my sister and my father living with us.... but dad leaves on TUesday to move to Florida, we will miss him, while it has been great haveing a extra hand and someone to watch the kids there is other family stress. But he will be gone and it will only be my sister in whom I worry about her like I do my own kids and she is only a year and a half younger then me lol. But who knows ... Any way in order to remotivate myself I will might be joining weight watchers with some friends. Ill let you all know how that goes.

    Hi Guys
    When I use to exercise I was a morning person, so I am trying to get back into that routine as it worked for me before (and Im hoping it will work again). However I read an article last night about eating before exercising. Apparently its a 'no no' to exercise on an empty stomache. But I just find eating at 6am then exercising will make me feel sick and I really dont have time to wake up an hour extra early just to eat and let my stomache rest before I exercise.
    So now I am thinking maybe I should start jogging or doing my strength training in the evening... hmmmm what to do???

    Myth..
    When I lost weight last year... my hair started falling out (ALOT!). But then I was overly stressed last year as well. I did a few blood test to rule out hormones vs stress and it did turn out my thyroids were under active.
    How are your thyroid levels??

    Stress is such a shocker!!! can cause every part of us to brake down!

    I hope you feel better soon! :flowerforyou:

    Jaymie,


    All my blood work came back fine :( SO stress is causeing some latley I cant believe its cause the before now hair loss SO my dr has me going to a dermatologist although my nurse friend said I need to call them and say no schedule me for an endocronologist cause she just had to do that for a patient for the same thing. SO we will see. One thing I can say for weight watchers is there etools site for tracking is very user friendly! SO far I am counting the points but it is so fricken wierd lol.
    I have even exercised for 3 days in a row now and plan to do it tmrw as well. I feel like I am getting back in to it, I have even been drinking more water!

    LAdies I hope you are all doing well.
