Good morning all!
Tammy....so glad that your hubby is doing well!!! Don't worry about yesterday, I think you probably didn't do as bad as you thought. Besides....Today is a new day!!!!!
Renae...sounds like you are doing well! That is super. I think we all have those "blah" days.
I have a meeting this afternoon that I need to make sure I am prepared for!!!! YUCK!!!! I dread these monthly meetings and I don't really know why. For the most part, they go very smoothly. I just stress over them because I am such a perfectionist. Darn It!!!!
My computer at home got a really bad virus in it, so my computer guy is havean it all out. It just popped up over night. Stupid thing!!!!
Well, I have started my day off with my shake and am ready to go to work, so I guess I better get after it. Have a great Thursday everyone!!!!

Morning All,
Just finished working out. Did W1D2 of C25K. Burnt 373 cals, then did chest and abs, and upper body and core circuits on No More Trouhle Zones. Feeling good. Have a busy day today. Will check in later this evening. Hope everyone has a good day.
Thanks Ann - I seem to be blowing the weekends to much, that during the week I just end up burning what I gained. Not making any progress. Hopefully tomorrows weigh in will be better. And next week will be bad, have our Winter Festival weekend, will be eating not the greastest and then there is beer on top. And then 2 weeks after that is the hockey draft day, so another weekend will be yucky. Just have to stay focused and take each day as it comes. I do hope to break the 160's by the end of the month, and I'm not quite sure it will be possible. Can't forget thou that this week is TOM, so hopefully that is the culprit this week.0 -
Last Thursday: 183.5 pounds
Today: 182 pounds
I am down a pound this week. Yay

Morning all!
Renae....stay at it and you will break through. Try different stuff to stimulize your body!!! Sometimes if you throw it for a loop it will react!!
Tammy...Sorry to hear your hubby is still in pain. Hopefully that will subside soon for him. He won't try to move if it hurts too much, so hopefully they can give him something to help!!!
Sarina...Nice job! Keep it up.
Jack......where are you????? Hope all is still going well for you.
It is a sad day in my little world.:sad: A very dear man passed away this morning. He is the dad of my best friend. Her and I became friends through the International Order of Rainbow for Girls. I was Grand Worthy Advisor (like the president of a club) and she was like my V-P. We became life long friends and our families as well. He will be sadly missed and never forgotten!
Well....I'm off to start my day at work. Survived my board meeting yesterday.....GEEZ it lasted forever, but I managed to stay away from the M & M's and the Cookies. However there are cookies left! GRRRR....... I really want one!!!! I may have to have one and then get rid of the rest!!
Everyone have a great Friday!!!

Morning all, I woke up with a very stuffy head. I don't think I will be doing any exercising today, but will get on the treadmill tomorrow. My back is also killing me, need to go back to the chiro next week.
My mom, sister, and brother-in-law, run our own little BL. Weigh in every Friday. Each week the winner is safe, and the rest pay $5. At the end the biggest % loser wins the cash. Well today was not a good weigh in, was doing so good all week, even thought I would be down a pound, then I got TOM (Jack must love when we talk about TOM), and I am up 1.2 to 165.2. I am hoping that goes away for our weigh in here on Sunday.
Busy doing laundry and books today. Only -9C here this morning, so the kids and I will walk to get mail and paper, then they can play outside for awhile.
Hope everyone has a good weekend. I am hoping I don't go crazy with eating this weekend. I am going to treat myself to my bag of tacos this weekend, but will just try to eat them in moderation. Don't think I will be drinking much since my head is so stuffy.0 -
Sorry, yesterday was a very stressful day with work, ended up working til close to midnight to prepare 2 presentations for this morning.
I did manage to get a 3 mile run in yesterday, but I totally lost track of my food, and ended up 250 calories under (should have skipped the run I guess) I didn't even get my food entered until this morning. Anyway, presentations are over now, and looking forward to a 3 day weekend.
Ranae, hope you get feeling better,
Tammy, hope your husband recovers quickly
Ann, sorry for your loss,but good job avoiding the cookies and M&Ms.
I think I am going to lose some pounds this week, been on a bit of a fateau for the last few weeks.
PS, everytime I see the word TOM on this board, I cover my ears and say LALALALALLALALLALALALALALA.0 -

You made me giggle Jack.
Took the kids for a 25 min walk around the village today, burned 253 cals. So not bad since I wasn't going to do anything today. Might not get on the treadmill tomorrow, might go ice fishing with the hubby.0 -

Good morning all!!!!! Hope everyone is having a wonderful week-end. My brother went home this morning. It was wonderful to have him around.
I am determined to get in some excercise time today. I am in the middle of cleaning and laundry. Get it done so that I can enjoy the rest of my 3 day week-end!!!! I haven't been very good on watching what I am eating lately. I am getting back on the wagon to the 1200 calories on Monday, But excercising this week-end. I think I have given my body enough of a break!!!
Everyone have a great day!!!!

Happy Saturday ya'll...DH is doing better today. He is up and about with crutches some. He has to do 8+ hours of therapy at home every day. I got groceries and cleaned house, now I need to exercise. Had a rough time while he was in the hospital with exercise and food. I did take the stairs to the 7th floor every chance I got. I didn't gain any weight but I didn't eat well. I am still very tired today, hope to sleep well tonight. I hope to show a loss sometime soon.
Jack...I have also been at a "fateau" (good word).
Ann...I'm sorry for your loss.
Renae...Feel better soon. I am a little stuffy myself today.
Nysa...Hiya. Hope you are well.
Anybody heard from Laura or Amanda?
Everybody enjoy your long weekend 0 -
Glad your hubby is feeling some better, Tammy! I hope you feel better quickly, too.
Laura has gotten alot of snow lately, afaik, so I'm guess her kids are keeping her pretty busy out playing in it lol0 -
Hope everyone is doing well. I added an extra workout in this morning (ran 3 miles), and then proceeded to nap most of the afternoon away. Hitting new lows again on the weight front, so that is good. I think its time to hunker down and finish these last 10 pounds.
Tommorow night I am taking the wife and daughter out for dinner for valentines day, so I might be a little naughty, but I will try to go easy on the calories during the day.
Monday, I am taking the day off and taking the kids tubing at the local ski slopes. Maybe I will wear my HRM to measure all those calories burned.0 -
Happy Valentines Day everyone!!! Hope you have a great day with your sweeties!!! We are going to dinner this afternoon/evening. Going to try and go a little early to beat the rush but will probably still stand in line!!! That's okay.
Well not a good week with all the stress and everything. Gained a pound. 164.2. DAD GOME IT!!! Back to the 1200 calories tomorrow. The break was nice and I think did me some good, but am ready to get back after it!!!!
Well I definately didn't make the challenge this past week. Mainly because I didn't do a very good job of keeping track of my food intake. That is going to be the plan next week.
I saw this somewhere....may have been on here....and thought it was a cool idea. Pick one hour of television that you watch and at every commercial break get up and do activities.....Could just be walk around or whatever you want. I thought that is cool and am going to try that this week as well. Maybe that would be a good challenge for the week.
Yesterday was gorgeous here so decided to take our 9 month old dog for a walk. Well he actually took me for a walk. I was sore last night!!! Good work out though!!! Can't wait till we have days like that every day. It is yucky here again today. Threatening snow!
Well....everyone make it a "sweet" day!!!

Happy Valentine's Day team...Just got back from the gym and feel great. It was so hard to get motivated but I feel so much better. I was back down on my weight today, thought I was going to have to report a gain this week. Next week I am determined to lose at least one pound and not find it:laugh: Hope you all have a great day. Gotta go do some typing now. See you tomorrow.0

Send me your weigh ins. I will post them some time tomorrow after noon. I have most of them already.0

Good Monday morning team...Gotta get to work early today. I have to "help" my youngest finish his science project tonight after I work for about 10 hours. I love homework:grumble: My poor hubby is getting put on the back burner today. I'm having a hard time keeping up with everybody. Funny, you don't realize how much your husband actually helps out around the house until he stops:huh: Hope you all have a great day.0

Big hugs, Tammy! I hope your day isn't too stressful for you and that hubby gets back on his feet quickly.
I hope everyone has a great Monday! How was everyone's Valentine's Day?
I was looking at Halloween Costume's yesterday (yes, yes, I know it's too early!); but I am now determined to order a costume for Halloween that isn't a plus size! That gives me 8 months to work on it. I've been in the 26/28 range for so long, I've completely forgotten what weight = what sizes now! Now, if I could just figure out if I want to go as Aphrodite, Queen of the Nile or a 20's speakeasy girl lol
Yesterday was a good day. Hubs and I had a little extra money, so we decided to split it. Went shopping and bought a brand new dress -- (I have no where to wear it; but it was on sale from $60 to $13!) I brought two sizes of the same dress into the fitting room with me. I could wear the smaller size!! (22) I was really excited about that! Of course, now I have to find a strapless bra to wear with it -- and the one Lane Bryant suggested just did.not.work. lol
Anyhow - I hope you all have a wonderful day today!!0 -
Hello Everyone!!! My hubby went back to work this past Friday and today I am starting back on my weight loss journey. While he was out it was really hard to stay on track and I am ashamed to say that I have gained some more weight. However, I am really determined to get the weight I have gained off and move forward from this. Today is a new day to a new week and I want to make it all week without eating crap that I should not eat. I will do it, I am determined to do this. I want to finish what I have started. No more excuses.0

Good for you, Laura! I know you can do it! 0

Good morning team.
Tammy....hope you make it through your day okay today....remember to breath!!!
Laura...good for you in getting back on track. You can do it!!!
Dragonfly....Congrats on the great new dress. You will find somewhere to wear it!!!! That is a super feeling.
I am off today so just trying to get things rounded up so that I can leave on Wed to go and help my girlfriend in the loss of her dad. Service is Thursday and then i will stay and help her clean things up. That is always so hard!!!!
Everyone have a super day!

Hey Laura...Good to see you. Glad your DH got healed and back to work. It will be another 6 to 8 weeks until mine goes back. He is doing better though. You can do this, one day at a time!
Nysa...Thanks for thinking of us. Congrats on the smaller dress size. Good for you!!
Ann...Thanks, I will make it. I am superwoman:laugh: It sounds like you have a busy and stressful week coming up too. Hope everything goes well.0 -
Well today didn't go as I had planned for it to go. I ate too many calories.0
