Meokk-I just started watching Biggest Loser this season and I am hooked! It really is a great motivational show. It keeps me going. They do see results a lot faster because that's all they do. But it just goes to show that you can lose that weight. It also helps me to see the struggles they have with being over weight their whole life. I have always been over weight. It's theraputic for me. You should really check it out!!
LittleSpy-That chocolate cake sounds soooo yummy!! Enjoy it for all of us!:bigsmile: Enjoy your non healthy meal. It's your mans birthday. Enjoy it while you can!
Positively_Me-I'm with you on the stair master girl. I can't believe I got on it. I plan to continue using it maybe once a week from here on out! I definitely felt it!
So I went to the gym last night where c25k kicked my *kitten*! I was watching a fitness class that was going on. I don't know what it was but it looked SCARY!!! :sick: I wont be trying that one!! 25 minute jog tomorrow for Cris and I! Cross your fingers for us ladies! I know we can both do it!! :flowerforyou:
I realized something yesterday. When I use to get frustrated with life I would always result to snacking to make myself feel better. And for the first time I couldn't wait to get to the gym to let my frustrations out on my run! OMG!! :blushing: What a huge accomplishment! I have decided running is my new therapy and my new comfort. However, I do sometimes swing and punch while I run because it makes me feel better. Whoever monitors their cameras must get a good laugh out of watching me! :bigsmile: I don't really care. They can laugh at me all they want!0 -

Hello girls,
Just wanted to say a quick hello. I have been much busier than I like to be! My life if full of great things, but I feel like I'm spinning and can't keep up. I will be gone till after the fist May. I wanted to say thanks for all your encouaging words and support that has helped me get this far. Still a ways to go but I'm confident that I will get there. So far I am maintaining on my own and I plan to focus more on good cardio exercise when I have more time at home.
Keep up the great job you are all doing!0 -
elmox: I'm with you on the week going slow. I also have tomorrow off, but we're getting there!
Cris: Whether you do w6d3 today or Saturday, you'll do great! Once you get past this workout, the rest seem pretty easy! Just go at a slow pace so you can get the entire time done. I'll be doing w9d1 tomorrow, most likely in the morning with the dog.
Pos_Me: It's so great that you talked yourself into continuing your workout even though you wanted to quit after 10 minutes. Stair steppers are hard! Happy birthday to your hubby on Saturday...he's my birthday buddy! It's so cute he just wants to spend the day with you. I love when married couples are cute like you two!
Snowflakes: We'll miss you while you're away, but we'll be right here waiting for you when May 1st rolls around!
So yesterday I was doing great on calories all day until I was a little hungry last night when I got home from riding at 9:30pm. Even though we both know better, my boyfriend and I ended up ordering a pizza and I ended up going 400 calories over for the day. Ugh, why do I do this to myself?
Tomorrow, for my day off, I plan on getting up close to my usual time to take the dog with for w9d1 of C25k. Then I'll shower and head down to the Minnesota Horse Expo to meet up with some ladies I volunteer with. The owner of the barn already gave me a wristband for the weekend, so I don't have to pay admission! The challenge is going to be in staying away from the corn dogs at the Expo. The plus side is that I'll be walking around all day.
I'll probably check in a few more times today, but I won't be on MFP at all tomorrow. So, I'm giving my official weigh-in for tomorrow's stats.
hajohnson24....-0.8 lbs = 0.41%
Yes, there was a loss, but I'm not really considering it one until I get back down to the 190 that I was last month. I officially have not met my birthday goal and I'm a bit frustrated with myself. I know what I need to do, just need to find the motivation to work through it and give up the bad food choices. This is about the time of year I gave up on all of it last year, but I will NOT be giving up this year!0 -

Here's the link to an article someone posted on another thread, but it makes sense. Now I can see why my boyfriend doesn't keep track of his calories but keeps losing weight!0 -
Hi Girls, I will be back later to read everyones post. I am very excited. Ryan went to his class last night and he did his usual jumping off of furniture and wandering. Here is why I am excited, they did NOT kick him out and they made him stop. They made him stay focused and when I came to pick him up I asked how he did. They said he did pretty good. I am like did he jump off furniture? Yes, but we made him stop. What a concept every other program I take him to rather than make him stop they come get me and embarass me and tell me that it has become a saftey issue. Okay Make HIM STOP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Sorry about the grammer and spelling I have to run to speech for Ry then water therapy for my neighbor busy busy busy.0

checking in for yesterday:
calories: over by 240 ... but for a non-exercise day that was a big improvement for me
exercise: unfortunately none ... was chauffeur after work, made supper, and then ended up working until late. I sat at my daughter's golf tournament from 4:30-5:45 ... expecting her to be done any minute - wish I would have gone for a walk instead. NEXT time I'll have to figure out a way to walk around but still be able to see when she is at the last tee (or whatever you call it - I'm not a golfer).
water:good - about 100oz
proud: of the food choices I made, I made a couple of mistakes in the evening ... got too hungry because we were running around much later than I expected so I had 1/2 scoop of ice cream when I treated the golf girls to ice cream cones, and I also snitched a little of the kid's supper while making it - but not too much. Not perfect - but definitely an improvement and no mindless binging or snacking. I have lots of protein snacks packed today, but still need to plan dinner.
cris: Congrats on 4th for BL!
snowflakes: see you in May!
momma: how did the kinder class go last night?
jlb: enjoy your bf's birthday! you've been doing such a terrific job, good for you for planning around the cake and meal.
Have a good day everyone else! (I already forgot all the other comments I was going to make ... old age! :grumble: )0 -
How do you get him to stop hugging strangers because my 3 year old has started that and it has me frightened that someone may try to take her if she hugs the wrong stranger.You know what I mean??? I don't want someone taking my baby so how do I get her to stop without making her think everyone in the world is bad?Hi Girls, I will be back later to read everyones post. I am very excited.

Yeah! That is so great, it sounds like there are some good teachers in this program! :flowerforyou:Hi Girls, I will be back later to read everyones post. I am very excited.

Momma -- Yay! I'm so happy for you and Ryan. Sounds like he's got some great teachers on top of a great momma!
Istpaul -- sounds like you're on the right track! It's good about the protein -- as Momma says, I swear by it! :laugh: I sacrificed about 20g of protein that I would've gotten in my normal snack yesterday (which I skipped to try to make up for eatin the cake...) I was SO HUNGRY all night at work. It was still a small price to pay for that cake. :laugh:
Heather -- have fun with the horses! And you'll do just fine avoiding the corndogs. Ew. Personally, just thinking about what's in a hotdog wiener keeps me from wanting one in any form. :sick: :laugh:
Snowflakes -- Enjoy life! See you back here the first of next month!
Well, my bf has officially ruined his surprise of a clean house! GAH! :grumble: He has postponed taking one of his exams instead of staying to take it today like he was planning. So, now he'll be home when I get home which means not only will it not be a surprise, but I won't be able to get nearly as much done because he's like a 4 year old when he wants attention. :laugh: At least I'll get to spend more time with him! At least it will still be a surprise when I walk in 4 hours early. And really, am I not the best surprise ever? 0 -
Momma- Thats great news!!! I know how stressed out you must have been, this certainly should lift your spirits!:flowerforyou:
Snowflake- See you soon! We will miss ya! Make sure you come back though or we'll come after you!
Istpaul- Great job staying on track...little treats here and there if portioned correctly shouldnt hurt you. It would have been worse to deny your craving and then binge/snack later...kudos!!!:drinker:
jlb- Im pretty sure he would rather have you paying attention to him then a clean house Bobby's like a 4yr old when he wants attention too...last night he kept talking like a excited little boy then started pouting when I wasnt "listening" to him, then decided to come sit "next" to me aka- on top of me so I could hold him. Seriously, who is the girl in this relationship?? :laugh: :laugh: I love him
So I just had like an 800 cal (estimated cause I have no idea really) sandwich at panera's. Ive been trying to alternate my daily intake from low (1100-1250) to high (1300-1450). I figure since I've been busting my *kitten* this week that I deserved it, plus I will burn most of it off tonight in spin class. :happy: That'll leave me with about 400 cals for dinner and I can make something really yummy with that many cals!!! The sodium from it may not look pretty at tomorrow's weigh in tough....:grumble: :explode: lol so much for my 208!!!
BUT YUMMMM IT WAS GOOD!0 -
Littlespy: Yes, you are the best surprise! I'll try really hard to stay away from the corndogs but I just love them! Usually I don't eat hotdogs unless they're all beef because the thought grosses me out but the batter is awesome. I'm going to try to focus on the grilled porkchop stand during lunch because that's about the best option when it comes to fair food. Or, I might be able to find a grilled chicken sandwich.
Momma: I'm glad that Ryan had a success at Kinder. The teachers seem to know what needs to be done for him so I'm sure he'll do great this year! He sounds like so much fun. If it makes you feel better, we had a rider in our program who likes to leap of the horses and BOLT away, but we manage to keep her on the horse and engaged for 45 minutes of horseback riding (even though we have to hold on to her the whole time!) Ryan definitely sounds easier to handle than our rider!
So, I'm sitting here at my desk being totally grossed out by my co-worker on the other side of the cubicle wall. He's gross anyway because he picks at scabs and digs in his ear and then studies it...but today he's congested and keeps inhaling deeply so the mucus rattles around. I don't know why a grown man can't figure out how to blow his nose! The worst part is that he's a manager. Unbelievable. I liked it so much better when his cubicle was on the other end of the building from me. Eww!0 -
Okay so I just got my scale in the mail that I ordered from Amazon. It wil set my weight but then it gives me an error message when I try and get my body composition. What's the deal? Does anybody know?0
-
Jess- I know with my scale you have to be barefoot and stand still...dunno if any of those are the problem
Also, I was looking at your pics on FB and OMG girl you have came such a long way!!! GREAT JOB! Keep it up! In some pictures I truly had no idea it was even you , I had to click my mouse over it to see if you were tagged as the person!!!0 -
PS- Is your weight showing higher, lower or the same? Lol, Im kind of scared to buy a new scale in fear that it will tell me I weigh more!0
-
No worries I think I figured it out! I had to squeeze the handle thingy dealy whopper really hard and then it worked! YAY!!
Cris-It's showing about 3 pounds up from what mine said this morning. But then again I do have clothes on and about 6 glasses of water. I'm giong to compare tonight when I get home! That's too funny about not recognizing me. That made me feel so good! Thank you! I like looking back to see my progress. That's what keeps me going. I showed my cousin the birthday pics and she goes "Oh my goodness Jessica look at your face and neck!!!" I use to pick on myself because it never looked like I had a neck. But I do now!! YAY!! :blushing: Stupid thing to be excited about I know!0 -
LittleSpy-Sorry your suprise was ruined! But at least you get to spend some quality time with your bf! That's great!
Momma-So glad to hear your son did well at his class last night! Who would of thought just telling him to stop would of worked? You would think the previous teachers would of done the same!
Snowflakes-We will miss you! See you in a couple of weeks! Hope all is well!:flowerforyou:
lstpaul-I agree with Cris. If you deny your cravings only bad things result. Moderation is the key!
Cris-I was actually thinking of doing the same thing with the calorie alternating next week. I'm going to start a fitness class or too. I think if you are going to be burning that many calories it's probably a good idea. You try it out first and let me know how that works out! HAHA!:bigsmile: :laugh:
Heather-The grilled porkchop sounds so yummy...and the corndog...mmmm...and your co workers just sounds nasty. I feel for you girl!0 -

Seriously so far its been working I guess, like I said I was down to 208 (was stuck at 210.4) and thats WITH TOM!!! So hoping that next Tuesday I show a big loss!!!0 -
My manager is totally gross too! (he also sits next to me ... but at least we are in offices - so a little more separation). I don't know if you were here when I was complaining about him one day ... but he routinely picks his ears with pens while talking to me, passes gas often when walking by my office, I thought he was going to die yesterday from coughing up phlegm ... oh yeah, and once he clipped his nails in my office and left the clippings on the floor. TOTALLY GROSS! He wears the same clothes every single day too ... but I tell myself they must be several pairs of the same style and color ... at least I HOPE. :sick:So, I'm sitting here at my desk being totally grossed out by my co-worker on the other side of the cubicle wall.

Checking in from yesterday 4/21
Calories: 1653 - 400 over my regular allotment so i basically ate ALL of my exercise calories because I went a teacher mixer & had a couple martinis & some hot wings but they were VERY yummy
Exercise: had my butt kicked by my trainer
Water: got close to 7 glasses in so that is a very good day for me :-)
Today so far I have manage to consume a whole liter of water before 12:30! I am totally starving though...have really tried to rein in the eating but I am still hungry!
I am thinking my fitness test next tuesday should show some good results...my trainer does my measurements too...I have been trying to measure myself just so I won't be surprised if it is bad & this morning I am thinking the measurements might come out pretty good :-)
But the main thing on my mind is that i am HUNGRY!!!
I did finish all of my homework yesterday too :-) I am feelin pretty positive about all of this right now :-)0 -
Yesterday our organization was zapped by an update from McAfee. My laptop when down about the time I was trying to post here and I was busy here helping restore systems until after 11PM last night! I had a 6 am appointment with the marriage counselor (yeah... fun way to start the day!). We've had marriage counseling on and off for years - WAY cheaper than a divorce and we do love each other... gah! men can be so thick:grumble: ! ANYWAY- went to appt then to the rec center and did W6D2 of the 5K101 (I missed it last night cause of work). Then I wandered into the office around ten :ohwell: And now I'm sooooo sleepy!:yawn:
When I was running this morning I was noticing that my thighs don't rub as much as they did. The way I'm built they will ALWAYS touch but now it's only at the upper third :glasses: I was really trying to move out of my western pleasure slow-motion jog but leaning forward some and bending my knees more - but it was difficult to sustain because I seem naturally built of slow :ohwell:
Mari - yesterday I DID THE SPIN CLASS!!!! But not too well. It was a "hills and cross country" class and every one seriously looked like a professional biker. I spent a lot of the time sitting and peddling with minimal resistance while they were up on their feet going a million miles per hour! I'm going to try to bike standing up on the regular exercise bikes and see if I can build up some endurance in that position!:sick:
Checking in for yesterday -
Calories - under (never got dinner)
Water- great! I drink well at work :drinker:
Exercise - Spinning in the morning and a big walk at lunch!:smokin:
Proud - that I didn't eat junk food when it got late and I was feeling soooo sorry for myself!
Today I'm doing OK but it's been healthy but higher calorie food choices. I had a banana with my breakfast, and I had veggies for lunch that had butter in them - yummy but bumped up my intake by about 200 calories for the day! Tonight it's an 'Earth Day' dinner of locally grown veggies (onions and mushrooms from PA) and eggs, and cream in a frittata - usually those are pretty kind calorie wise! I'll check back soon!0 -
Well, I pulled into the driveway and my bf was standing looking out the door window & saw me pull up! Crazy man. He said he thought he heard a knock & wanted to be sure it wasn't the UPS guy (expecting my scale today). But he walked out with a huge grin on his face. And he was like "What are you doing here? For lunch?" and I said "FOR YOU!" :laugh: And now I'm sitting outside on the porch... by myself. :laugh: Not getting anything done (I decided cleaning would be a lot more fun after drinking a pint of Guinness I bet I'm right, too).
Anyway, I stopped by Walmart on the way home since the surprise was ruined & there was no need to hurry. I needed to pick up a couple things. I decided to look for a shirt that would go with a lot of the skirts I have that are starting to fit now because I wanted to wear my most awesome skirt to dinner tonight. I found one I liked & took a size Large into the fitting room. And for what I'm nearly 100% sure was the very first time in my life, I had to leave the fitting room to get a SMALLER size. I had to buy a MEDIUM! :bigsmile: I swear most of the brands Walmart carries run big, but still. I went in thinking the large would probably be too small & that I'd have to go get an XL so it was a super nice surprise!
I also got one of the "jumper straps" for my knee. I tried it out and I think it really will help so I may try to get a jog in after I clean. I probably won't do the F210K workout I'm supposed to do (w2d1) because I want to ease my knee back into it but I really do need to burn the extra calories since with this Guinness I'm already sitting at 854 cals. Because, of course I had to eat half of a chocolate cake doughnut with my Guinness (a real British treat! I know it will sound horribly gross to most of you, but OMG YUM). I guess it's the Irish in me. 0 -

Okay, I have been sitting here for nearly 15 mins. catching up on you guys. I realized that I sit here reading with a big grin on my face and my lips start hurting. You guys make me smile:bigsmile:
Ewwww about the gross bosses. Blow you stinkin nose little idiot.:laugh: Get a q-tip ya big dork:laugh: Okay this is why I am a stay at home mom because that is what I would be saying to people. You just can't take me into public:laugh:
Thanks for all the cheers for Ryan. I was so proud of him. We went to speech and he did not have a good day. Oh well he is still trying to figure all this out. Give the guy a break, part of his issues are being spoiled a bit. Don't get me wrong he def. has a speech delay but he is so babied. He has been trying this new thing with me it is a control issue and it is so hard but anyways if he does not want to listen to me he tries to "hug" me. So I started putting my hand out to stop him. My daughters are devestated. "Mom isn't hugging Ryan when he wants one" Ryan does NOT want a hug he wants to shut me up.:huh: :laugh: Heather, he does sound easier than your little girl from riding. He is "controllable" You just have to be firm and get on it. He is too funny though. He told me a was a "Giant embarassing mommy" because I was singing to him. Yes my voice is that bad
Awestfall, as for your girl hugging everyone. I just grab his hand and pull him close to me if I think he is about to do it. I can usually tell when he is getting ready to go in for the hug and kiss. (Any time a little girl his age is around). So I just keep him close. I don't really know how to put a stop to it. I also try to talk to him and say " You should only hug, mommy, daddy, grandma and sissy's. When I figure it out I will let you know:flowerforyou:
Snowflakes, we are going to miss you!!!!!!!!!!!!
Happy Birthday to littlespys boyfriend and Pos- hubby.
Jess, wow you got your scale fast didn't you?
Okay, gotta go have a daughter to pick up she is early out today0 -
Cris, you had a sandwich from Panera? My mouth is watering thinking about it! For some ridiculous reason, there are NO Paneras in New York City (at least not in Manhattan). It makes me so sad, because that food is delicious! It's a favorite for my husband as well, so I'm sure we'll go to one when we're in Indianapolis this weekend.
Littlespy, congrats on the smaller size! It is a huge accomplishment and you should definitely feel proud.
Momma, that's a good program your son was in last night. The teachers are in charge and the fact that he listened when they told him to stop is wonderful!
Mstahl, CONGRATS on the spinning class! That's fantastic that you went and tried it. Everything I have head about spinning supports your claim that is it TOUGH! I'm proud of you for sticking it out and finishing the class, even if it was at your own pace.
I was planning on a run in Central Park today with a friend, but she's feeling sick and isn't up for it. I was all ready to throw in the towel and say, "Oh well, guess I won't run today." But then another friend mentioned she wants to come instead! So it's fate. I am meant to run in Central Park today. I'm promptly treating myself to a mani/pedi afterwards (lucky lady who gets to deal with my feet post a run!) in preparation for the wedding in Indy this weekend.
Off to get more water...64 oz done for the day, this next fill will make 88 total!0 -
lstpaul: Maybe our coworkers are related? Mine belches out loud a lot too, and it was really funny when another co-worker called him out on it last week. He doesn't ever look like he washed his hair and I'm dying to know what his wife is like because she's so super nice when she calls for him.
Littlespy: Congrats on the new smaller shirt! The Guinness and chocolate cake doughnut combo sounds delicious...I like both of them!
I only have just over a half hour to go and then I'm out of here for the weekend. Today has gone SO slow! On the up side, it's supposed to be 68 and sunny tomorrow instead of the rainstorms they were predicting earlier in the week. Woo hoo!!
If I don't have a chance to stop in this weekend, I hope you all have a great weekend and I'll "see" you Monday!
Heather0 -
Thanks Momma!! I usually tell her the same as you tell your son,just to hug mom,dad,and her sisters but here lately she has been trying to be friendly with everyone.I am constantly running to grab her or pulling her away from some stranger and then they look at me like ARE YOU CRAZY LADY I wouldn't hurt your daughter? But if they look at it from my point of view then they would see that I am just trying to protect her and break her of what potentially could be a dangerous thing.I guess I will keep stressing the facts about STRANGER DANGER too her lol.Okay, I have been sitting here for nearly 15 mins. catching up on you guys.

Well you know it's all just theory. What I *think* I'm going to do. In reality, it's like nearly 2 hours later and I've gotten very little cleaning done. I have done some, though, at least. I blame my bf. And UPS for delivering my scale. I took out the trash & saw the package was sitting on my porch. So OF COURSE I had to read the manual & get it all set up & try it out. The good news is that it's going to be a totally smooth transition from one scale to the other because they both said I weigh the same thing! And I'm excited about the weight both of them gave me because I'm full of Guinness and water and food and so I think if I'm decently good tonight with my eating I may actually show a loss this week after all.
But I'm really hoping the body fat thing is really skewed because of how much fluid and food I've had today. I think it has to be. :noway: But I don't know now that I think about it. Because if it's accurate, I just need to lose about 35 more pounds to be in the "normal" range of body fat for a woman my age. I was thinking I want to lose 45 more, so maybe it is about right. I just don't want to believe I'm really that much percentage of fat. :ohwell: I do think it'll be more accurate in the morning though.0
