    Good morning,

    I hope you all had a great weekend. I didn't do so well on the eating, but had fun anyway.

    We went snowshoeing twice this weekend, so burned a lot of calories, but still went way over on Saturday. Of course, my burn was an estimate because my HRM wasn't working right, so perhaps it's not as bad as it seems. Even with the Super Bowl, I'm only up a half pound, which should come off by the time I peek at the scale tomorrow morning. I'm crossing my fingers in hopes that my evening weigh in tonight doesn't reflect the increase.

    Not much else to report, so I'll try to check in later.

    Hi Everyone,

    Happy Monday! You are all doing so well, Heather even after the super bowl! No one could be hard on themselves after that game, and I didnt even drink well I had one :ohwell: a Sombrero nothing like the calories in that sucker.

    Allie: have a great time on your weekend getaway, 145, I wish I was there!, last time I weighed that It was 1993 and i was actually 142 right before I conceived my first child who is now a teenage female terror:grumble: Anyway have a great time and im sure youre going to look hot in your bathing suit!

    Heather: great job on the weight loss! Snow shoeing must be a blast and you must get lots of exercising out or your riding as well. We have a therapeutic rink down the road from where i live, ive never stopped in though to check it out, it must be so rewarding. When the nie weather starts coming around im going to try and get back into riding again, its just been one of my only hobbies ive ever loved so much and relaxing:smile:

    Stephanie: How are you? Youve been really busy ah, what do you do for work? Actually whats everybody do for work?

    Shredder: Where r u? I miss you:happy:

    Ill weigh in tomorrow am before work, bright and early ! Everone have a great afternoon and evening!

    Christine: Unfortunately, I don't really ride in the winter, even though this year I have access to an indoor riding arena. I'm lazy in the winter, I guess. Well, that and my horse likes having the extended vacation. You should definitely stop in and check out the therapeutic riding program near you sometime. It's amazing to watch the little miracles that happen! We're starting to gear up again for our riding season, which begins in April...I can't wait! As for work, I do accounts payable and human resources for a small manufacturing company. I like my job but it's definitely not my passion. I still don't know what I want to be when I grow up!

    Anyway, I'm off to lunch and craving something naughty, though not quite sure what yet. Hmm...

    Happy Monday everyone!!!
    I've had the bloddy worst week of my life with eating....I cannot even begin to tell you guys how much I overindulged every single day. It was almost as if I was possessed:mad:
    First off my 13 year old had a sleepover with her girlfriends on Friday night and I was sent to the store with a list of goodiesto get...oreos, ice-cream, snickers, popcorn,chips.....what a nightmare cause once I got home with them I dove in and didn't come up for air.
    Then superbowl was a whole other story.
    I stood on the scales today and suffice it to say I have NEVER seen the number that blinked back at me. I'm appalled and disgusted with myself. I can't make myself tell you guys what I weigh....it's over the top bad!!!!
    So....I've dusted off my journal, tore out all the healthy meals from my Oxygen mags and am determined to get back on track.
    There is one change I need to make to the group...I just cannot weigh in on Tuesdays. For some reason that day usually is my worst weight day and I get soooo down when I don't see change that it literally affects my entire week. When I work my butt off all week and see the Friday number, it keeps me stronger over the weekend. Sorry, I've tried the Mon-Tues for so long and you guys know how much I hate it, so I'll be giving my weight on Fridays and I guess thats the # to use for the weigh ins.

    The rest of you sound so pumped up and on top of it....who'll get closest to the V-day goal.
    Christine, I'm actually a stay at home Mom. I worked retail for 17 years and then 2 years ago (in May) i quit and never looked back. I have most morning free until I get my kids from school and all the activity/homework chaos starts, so I'm currently looking for a little part time job to keep me busy and get out of the house.

    Here's to a fab week everyone!!!

    I'm with you shredder...Mondays/Tuesday havent been working for me lately. I know that I was originally on board for Monday weigh ins but I usually eat really high sodium foods over the weekend so that really messes me up come monday. Actually I think Im going to weigh myself bi-weekly...for some reason seeing .75 each week isnt as great as seeing 1.5 everyother week...sound crazy, I know, but it worked for me in the past so Im going to try it this month and see what happens.

    I got my makeover yesterday...It turned out soo good!! unfortunately I dont have any before and after pictures...but the studio that did it recorded the entire thing and will be posting a video on youtube sometime in the near future so Ill post it on here when its up!

    I'm excited for my trip this weekend...although my gf who was suppose to be going w me might back out. if she does I might suprise my family w a spur of the moment trip home...we'll see.

    I also over did it this weekend...but I also exercised enough to cancel it out (just about). Im proud to say I didnt drink anything yesterday (haha kinda sounds like Im an alcoholic)...so Im going to shoot for this weekend. If I end up staying in Chicago Ill probably do a v-day bar crawl, then a fun girls night w some wine

    Heather...I use to take house back riding lessons for 3 years...I loved it! Ive often talked about doing it again, but living in a big city w no access to a car makes it pretty hard. How long have you been riding? When I was younger I use to be soo jealous of the girls that competed and won ribbons (I was too young to compete, and stopped before I could enter any competitions)

    Shredder: I think weve all had weekends like that! They suck but sometimes theyre a slap in the face...like wake up and get back on track!! Im sure youll have a much better week this week!

    Wheres MPH2???

    I wont be at my goal for V-day...but hopefully much closer by St. Pattys day!!

    Allie: I've been riding for about 16 years now, but have never competed. I just do it for fun. Sometimes I wish I would have had the means available to get into barrel racing, but now it doesn't hold a lot of interest for me. Being involved in the therapeutic riding where I can work with horses to help people with disabilities seems so much more worth my time because it's more rewarding.

    I can't wait to see your makeover on youtube! It sounds like so much fun. Then again, so does your weekend coming up!

    I agree that weekends are terrible, mostly because of my increased sodium intake. I won't make my Valentine's Day goal, so that's a bit disappointing. I'd have to lose 17 lbs. to hit my St. Patrick's Day goal now, so I'll probably have to revamp my goals AGAIN! Grrr.

    I hear ya Shredder about the weigh ins also, So do we all want to weigh in on Fridays instead? Or do we all want to weigh in on what ever days we want and then just make sure we hit the scales before tuesday for Allie to record all of them for the other challenge? I must say also Im in this pre pms mode and i have a neverending stomach! I feel I could eat and eat and eat! I only had one drink on Superbowl but it had to be a sombrero mhm, high calorie of course, oh well it was only one. Dont give up Shredder were all here with ya, youre back like you said you dusted off your journal, awesome job. Do you find it hard also staying home? I was home for 5 years and just this last October I went back to work after I finished school and got my LPN, so now I work 32 hours as a charge nurse for a skilled and long term nursing facility. I just couldnt take it at home anymore. I really missed the adult communication. I was going stir crazy plus I was putting on the weight and fast.

    Great job Allie with no drinking! haha

    Heather and Allie, I was lucky to be able to compete when I used to ride, equestrian and jump seat but i worked for it cleaning stalls, lunging horses, grooming whatever it took to help pay for my lessons, my parents couldnt always afford it and I was determined to ride,I loved it! and miss it soooo much Its the one thing I wish I wouldnt have never given up and I hope to get back into it soon.
    Have a good nite everyone!

    Christine: It's more rewarding working for what you want rather than having someone give it to you. When in middle school and high school, I paid for my riding lessons with babysitting and dog walking money. My parents gave me the first set of riding lessons as a Christmas present and then I was hooked, so I worked extra hard to get the money to continue my lessons. I had to take a break in college and just after due to finances, but it was a wonderful feeling when I was living on my own and was able to buy my horse.

    Regarding the weigh-ins, I tend to have my best weigh-ins on Thursday and Friday mornings and my worst on Monday mornings. I'm fine weighing in whichever day works best for everyone else, so just let me know!

    Yesterday, I stayed within my calories (yay!), but was over on the sodium. Boo! I didn't exercise, but I'm waiting for the blisters on my heels to feel better. Darn snow boots. Needless to say, I think I need smaller snowboots for when I'm being active during the winter. I'm also in need of a smaller winter jacket AND snowpants. It's tough snowshoeing when I have to stop every few minutes to hike up my snowpants! Guess I'll be hunting the clearance racks or waiting until next winter to replace all of my winter gear!

    Have a great day,
    Heather

    Heather what a giggle you are...I can just imagine you yanking your pants up over your skinny butt!!!
    Time for new clothes soon!!!! Yahoo, I'm so happy for you.
    I grew up around horses in Ireland, all my posh friends who lived in the countryside had them. Coming from the suburbs I wasn't as lucky but I did get to ride a bit. I gotta tell you I've never been 100% comfortable, always a little anxious. I mean these animals are so powerful and their abilities so enormous, you have to have a huge amount of respect for them.
    I admire all of you who can ride and work with these beautiful horses.
    My in-laws bought my oldest daughter a Connemara pony 4 years ago named LambChop. We stabled it at a friends house and she took riding lessons and learned all the details that goes into owning an animal. She became quite good at riding and jumping but we no longer have her. Still, it was an incredible experience for my daughter to have.:happy:
    Had a great day yesterday. My journal was by my side every single moment of the day which really helped me. I logged way under my allowed calories and was fully satisfied by the end of the day.
    Woke up with the flu so have no taste buds to speak of, don't you hate that. Still, am so determined to knock the added weight off by Friday that nothing will get in my way.
    So, are we on board for weigh-ins Friday? I didn't mean it to sound like we all have to do it but sounds as if a lot of us are running into the same issues. So, let's make this Friday our official weigh in and if anyone wants a different day, you can do whatever works for you.
    Christine, I have definately gained weight since staying at home, it creeps up on you huh? I love being there for my kids and making them meals and providing a cosy home but I am so on the lookout for a partime job to keep me sane. I talk to myself all day long, no literally, I think the men in the white coats will appear any minute at my front door to haul me away:grumble:
    Allie, you little bombshell, we're all waiting for those pics. And good for you, even if your gf backs out, you make a plan and get the hell out of dodge to go see your family.
    I think MPH has backed out, that's ok, we may have been a bit too girly for him. I sent him a message but he has yet to reply
    Ok kids, thats it for today, I'll check in later.

    Shredder: That's awesome that your daughter got to have the equine experience. There are times when even I get a bit nervous around some horses that I don't know as well, but I usually just pretend I'm not nervous and things work themselves out. I definitely need to get out to see my horse this weekend, but right now I'm focusing on the refinement training and strengthening her before I ride too much.

    Wow, this day is simply dragging by. Why do the weekdays have to do that??

    Okay, back to work....for now.

    Good afternoon!

    I'm bummed to say that I didn't workout again yesterday because of the blistered heels, which look and feel terrible. It was a chore finding comfortable shoes this morning that were appropriate for work!

    Last night I went just a tad over my calories, which I blame on finding the most delicious organic, low sodium salsa! Yum.

    Not too much to report today, hope you're all doing well!!

    Happy to report I'm back at 187 this morning...not a great number but I was too embarressed to tell you guys what my weight was on Sunday and Monday heading into the week....are you ready....
    194 lbs are you serious!!!!!:sad:
    I actually was at 191 for 2 weeks but lied in the weigh in's. I'm sorry, it will not happen again.
    Yeap, i was that out of control. So in 5 days I shed the 7 lbs, I'm back to where i started and feel ecstatic.
    I cut out the wine, logged everything I ate, did not exceed 1,500 cals in one day and feel rejuvinated.
    I could feel the fat spilling over my hips, I felt like butt and vow I will never go to that dark place again.
    A bout of the flu really set me back in the gym but I did get a 45m aggressive walk in today and so far have eaten about 25% of my daily allowance with 4 hours till bed.
    Good lord, when you break it down, why is it we all have such a crappy relationship with our bodies. I mean for me, carrying around that extra weight was torture and I still have 50lbs to lose. Why am I celebrating a loss which takes me back to square 1???? Go figure.
    Do I sound like a broken record when I say "this is it, this time I'll lose it"?????
    I've shared my personal heartache with Allie but I think you all need to know the true reason for my crazy fluctuation in weight and attitude. My husband and I have seperated for a 3 month trial period. It sucks big time. I know I eat when I'm emotional and the last 3 week's weight gain is testimony to that.
    I've been so sad and afraid and anxious and angry aaarrrrggghhh:mad: :mad: :mad:
    A ton of our problems relate to me and my weight. I was so fit, healthy and skinny when we met and know it's like I'm a dumpy, frumpy wifey.
    He didn't sign up for this and who can blame him not being attracted to me, I mean if he barely drank when we met would I want to stay with a man who became an alchoholic???? A severe comparison , I know, but let's face it, marriage is for life and I changed the rules.
    I'm blabbing and I'm sorry.
    I love this group and need this group for more than logging weight and calories.

    Shredder: Thank you for sharing; it's always hard to do that. I can't imagine how difficult things are for you right now, but you can't take all of the blame yourself for the problems in your relationship, I'm sure. All relationships take two to make it work. Just make sure you take the time to focus on you and take of the things that are important to you. Put yourself first! I'm here to listen whenever you need me, whether it's on this thread or if you want to send a personal message. Hang in there!

    So, it's looking like the Heather and Shredder show around here again. Where is everyone??

    Yesterday I only went over my calories by 47, but didn't get any exercise in again. I'm thinking my heels will be able to handle the 5K tomorrow morning, so I'm going to give it a try. I figure the worst that will happen is that my feet will get sore and I'll have to call someone to pick me up mid-route, right? Last year, my mom and I decided it was going to be an annual thing for us to participate in and I don't want to not attempt it and break the new (1 year) tradition.

    I'm proud of myself in that I made soup (not canned) for the very first time ever. I'm not a domestic type and have never been good at cooking, but I gave it a shot for the company potluck today. I made stuffed green pepper soup and mini cornbread muffins. All turned out really well and my boyfriend was pretty impressed, too; he thinks there's hope of me becoming more domestic, but we'll see about that.

    Hope you're all having a good day,
    Heather

    Can I join the Shredder & Heather show??

    Shredder: Im soo happy to hear you did well yesterday! I know youve had a rough year so far, but I'm sure things will get better! Just think summer is about 18 weeks away...If you can lose about one pound a week until then youll be about half way to your goal (and many sizes smaller!). You just cant let one bad day lead to a week ....which leads to a month (I wish I'd take my own advice). I'm glad this thread helps...it definitely has kept me motivated and focused!

    Heather: a 5K tomorrow?!? I cant wait to see how it goes! Im sure the excitement of tomorrow will take the focus off your sore heel and youll do amazing!

    I've been doing amazing for about 2 weeks now with exercising and eating right...yesterday I slipped a little (I was crazy tired all day (so I didnt go to the gym at all) and it was someones birthday so of course I had cupcakes) but I made sure I woke up extra early this morning to get in some gym time and Im going to do Bikram yoga and running tonight! I might not weigh myself Sunday (Im 100% positive I didnt make my goal)...and do one big weigh in on February 26th! I'm really hoping to see 143 again...and break the 140's in March. I find that when I dont weigh myself as much I dont become unmotivated when numbers dont drop as quickly as Id like them to.

    My trip this weekend go cancelled...which I was kind of expecting. Its a bummer...but now I wont spend at least $450 on a weekend get-away...instead I spent the money on: a new pair of running sneakers ($80), a camera (which Ill hopefully get tomorrow)($100), a trip to tampa in April (to visit my brother) ($140), and a surprise trip home for Easter ($120)...all-in-all I think it was the right decision lol

    Anyone have exciting plans for the weekend?!? Im doing a "screw cupid pub crawl" with some friends...we did it last year and it was a blast!

    No one weighed in for V-day!! Is that a bad sign?

    How was everyones weekend??
  • HeatherMN
    HeatherMN Posts: 3,821 Member
    Good morning!

    Sorry, didn't make it to the computer yesterday for the V-Day weigh in, but I did get on the scale and...drum roll please...weight is at 194.8!! My goal was to be at 190, but I'll take it. It just means I have to work even harder to try to hit the St. Patrick's day goal of 180...hmm, I may have to reset my goals.

    This weekend, I really didn't pay any attention to my eat, but tried to just listen to my body and eat only when hungry and stop when I was satisfied. Apparently it worked! I'm craving fajitas something fierce today, so I'll probably have those for dinner tonight, if I can convince the boyfriend. He can usually be bribed with the white dipping cheese.

    Allie: I hate to admit that I didn't do the 5K. My heels were probably just fine, but I got lazy and it was cold (8 degrees) and windy. Excuses, excuses. But, if I did it when I wasn't in the mood for it I'd be even less likely to do another one.

    Not much else to report, as I was pretty lazy this weekend. I'll try to get back on track soon here with the exercising but at least the eating is going pretty well.

    Have a great day,
    Heather

    Heather, once again, congrats on your amazing weight loss.....what a great job you're doing.
    I was in LA this weekend and party'd it up big time, as a result the scale is back to 190 which is waayyyy off my Vday goal.
    No more beating myself up and diving into a downward spiral.
    I'm shaking it off and heading forward to the St Patrick's day one.
    I'm revising my challenge weight, I want to be at 180 for the 17th, I can do that.
    How was your pubcrawl Allie?
    Where is everyone else???? Come on guys, this only works if we all dial in!
  • HeatherMN
    HeatherMN Posts: 3,821 Member
    Shredder: My St. Patrick's Day goal is also 180, though I'd have to seriously kick butt to lose 15 lbs. in one month. But, we CAN do it, right?

    I am SO looking forward to fajitas tonight that if my boyfriend won't go with me, I'll just have to take myself. I figure I better satisfy the craving before it gets so strong that I eat six skillets worth! I am planning on sacrificing the sour cream as a small thing to make them ever so slightly better for me. We won't talk about the melted dipping cheese...

    Alrighty, off to my weigh-in and then dinner. Woohoo. Does anyone else hate how Mondays crawl by?

    Im here, I as well partied it up all weekend and had a great time, I have no regrets except for feeling like real **** on vday. I weighed in today weighing the same 244.0, no loss or gain, Ill take it, my goal was to be at 240.0 for valentines, i didnt make it. Im just going to have to step it up for St. Pattys day. Ill check in soon im wicked tired.

    Shredder, Im soo glad you went out, Did you have a good time?
    Allie, how was the pubcrawl? thats sounds awesome.
    Heather, your right about being too cold I wouldnt have run that either in the 8 degrees!
    Stephanie... where r u??????

    Our little group looks like it's dwindling. It needs new life!!

    Nothing much to report here except I had my awesomely delicious fajitas and up just a smidge for it this morning. I blame the sodium, as always. No regrets, though. I made up for it by having a salad today.

    My annual review for work went great with a better raise that I expected. Overall, a pretty good day. I'm making stuffed green pepper soup for supper tonight and it looks like I will be struggling to even get close to my calories today. Guess I could have eaten more at lunch, huh?

    Have a great afternoon, everyone!

    Lonely....I'm so lonely...

    One is the loneliest number that you'll ever find....

    It's just too quiet in here! Where are you all??

    Yesterday I stayed within my calories again, even with the DQ sundae. I didn't get any exercise in because I'm lacking motivation for that lately. Someone kick my butt into gear! I fully intend on working out tonight, so hold me to it!

    Last night I tried on my swimsuits because we'll be staying at a hotel with a pool this weekend and they all look horrible! Sure, the fit better, but they're the wrong style (one piece) for my body. With the weight loss my torso looks even shorter (it's super short anyway). I'm seriously considering trying on some tankinis this week. I never thought I'd consider something like that but I'm thinking it might make my torso look longer? One can hope.

    Alright, have a great day!

    Sorry Ive been MIA all week!

    Heather: where are you going this weekend?? Sorry if you already told me...sometime I think Im losing my mind.

    Wheres everyone else??

    I've been doing pretty good this week. Im going to try to weigh myself about once a month for Lent (I couldnt give it up completely)...I feel soo much better since I havent looked at a scale in almost 3 weeks. Ill weigh myself next saturday, then hopefully not again until end of March. Any exciting weekend plans?

    Allie: I'm so glad you stopped in! I'm missing everyone!

    My boyfriend and I are throwing a birthday dinner for his dad's 60th birthday tomorrow night. Then, on Saturday morning, we're heading to Alexandria, MN (about three hours from home) to go snowshoeing at a few of the state parks we haven't been at yet. We're going to stay overnight at a hotel with a pool and just "get away" for the weekend. Yay!

    Yesterday I was able to flush out most of the sodium overload and am 0.2 lbs. away from where I was over the weekend. Darn sodium; it is my biggest weight loss nemesis.

    Have a great day!

    Hey kids...
    had a killer workout on Tuesday, 1 mile run, 1 mile walk 8%incline and 30 mins on elliptical. I tweaked my calf somehow and had to lay low yesterday but feel good today so I'll for sure head to the gym.
    I was trying to get in a rythem of 2 days off and 4 days on, however if I get in today, Fri and Sat that will still be 4 days solid for the week. Nothing ever goes to plan.
    I'm still journaling and am so shocked sometimes as to what I can consume in a day, of course so many variables add to that equation, mood, tom, weather, schedule etc that no 2 days are consistent. I think that's my biggest take away having looked back the last 10 days in my journal. I HAVE to get consistent in my goals and how i implement them.
    You guys are rocking the house.
    I swear I'll do a jig if I'm at 180 for Lucky Loser 17th....Heather you with me???
    Nice to heqar from you Christine...
    Stephanie, i'm going to beat you like a drum if you don't check in soon (totally kidding):smile:
    Ok....Tomorrow IS our weigh in, so no slackers please.
    Allie is there a way to post our March goals on the spreadsheet to keep us focused?
    Love ya"ll

    Shredder... Awesome job working out the way you did, I cant wait until I can start running, My butt and boobs bounce and I cant stand it when I try to run on the treadmill, so Ive been sticking with the ellipticle. Keep up the Great work Shredder and the journaling its amazing how much we can consume without realizing.

    Heather.... Have a great time this weekend, I love those just get away for a weekend trips. Have fun at the 60th!!!

    Allie .... Once a month thats it, that would kill me, especially if I weighed in and only a pound gone in that 1 month, uuuuggghhh. hahaha

    I didnt have a great week for exercising, didnt go once I worked my butt off and wasnt getting out of work on time to be able to go, Im hoping to get into action this weekend and step it up a couple notches to get back in the groove like how "Sella got hers back" get it? heehheeee that movie! Welt I did weigh in this morning at 241.6 so im down, yay yay yay!

    Im going away myself next weekend to Attitash mountain, 8 of us are going to relax, Us girls want to get some snowshoeing, cross country sking, and whatever else to get us out doing activity, Im putting my 2 kids (15yo girl and 4yo boy)in snow board lessons for the day, Ive down hill skis and boots maybe Ill take a spin down ,then again maybe not!, relax in a couple of jacuzis, theres an outdoor heated pool, Im excited.

    Shredder: I'm definitely with you on doing the jig if we hit 180 by St. Patty's Day. I need to kick it into gear!

    Christine: I'm glad you checked in. Your upcoming weekend sounds like a lot of fun! I plan on getting lots of snowshoeing in this weekend, as long as all of our snow doesn't melt with temps in the mid 30s this week and weekend. I'm also looking forward to sitting in the hot tub and swimming in the pool. I love to swim but don't have much access to a pool.

    I'm going to attempt to get back into the exercising groove tonight be we all know I've been doing terrible on it lately!

    OK kids, I've been MIA and mostly because I've been working day and night with a new client...but I realize that I've been using that as an excuse. I need to put myself first, just like all you gals have. I promise I'll check in each nite, at least to say "hi" even if my day has been good or bad. What's our official weigh in day now?

    Here's another thing I was thinking... wouldn't it be so cool if we all met in person one day? Some day out in the summer or fall? We could be like the "fat pack", don't take that the wrong way, I mean because we're losing it together.
