    Hi, everyone! Good luck, Lisa.
  • Ok, so I clicked on this from DDM, how would I find it otherwise?

    Good morning! I was so busy on Disney related web sites this weekend, I forgot to log my food for two days! No change on the scales so I guess I wasn't too bad although a loss would have been nice!
  • I am just saving the link, Lorrie. I don't know my way around THAT well yet. I suppose you could go through Community--then Motivation and Support area--and then look for our thread.

    AND I am also guessing that we will have to keep it clean over here. HA! :tongue:

    I have found myself slipping back into the obsession with the scales, and I am trying HARD not to do that. Anyone else having that issue?

    If you click on your home or on message boards, you can find your recent posts, and as long as you've posted here at least once, it'll bring you here. Our little home away from home.

    Definitely need to keep it clean, since these people don't know us. ;)

    I'm not obsessed with the scale but I am finding that I'm becoming obsessed with adding exercises so that I have extra calories each day, even if I don't use them. That's just weird.

    Rhonda-- i was always good about not getting on the scales but about once every other month...then I actually bought one and put in my bathroom....i find myself obsessed with standing on it everyday now! I feel your pain. I guess we need to put them out of sight.

    I can only geton eht scale once a week, if not it can make or break my day which I know is plain stupid but that is how I roll.
    BTW my first day of my new job was great and I got accepted into a new health insurance program that would have throw me out if I was at my heaviest:happy: and I am saving buckets of molah too.

    Yay, Leesa!!!! I wouldn't be surprised if more health plans implemented a weight restriction.

    Trish was picking on me in Zumba. :laugh:

    BTW I reread my post the first line what was I smoking...lol...well at least you did Zumba today, Val. I need to find one more place to do Zumba, as I would like to see how other classes are. There is a pilate's place near here that just added Zumba so we shall see.

    Leesa, that's great about your job! I guess I disagree with others about the scale issue . . . weighing every day keeps me honest. Last year when I only weighed in periodically is when all the pounds crept on. I realize that it will go up and down from day to day, but it keeps me from letting it go up in 5 pound increments!!


  • I'm not obsessed with the scale but I am finding that I'm becoming obsessed with adding exercises so that I have extra calories each day, even if I don't use them. That's just weird.


    I am, TOO!! UGH! I do it nearly every day, and that is good in that I am exercising even more, or even harder, but I usually end up with 450 calories, etc. left over.
  • Oops, forgot what I was going to type. I'm with Lisa, I only weigh once a week too.

    Hello ladies! Thanks for the link, Rhonda!!

    Now you just have to remember which thread you're in, so you don't accidentally post new story in here.....:wink:

    I weigh in once a week at Curves - I trust their scale more than mine, since it's always in the same place, whereas I move mine around 'coz there's nowhere to keep it out on a full-time basis..... I need to weigh in tomorrow morning - it's gonna suck since I had dinner with mom and dad and ate way too much at Johnny Carina's tonight.....

    Morning!! Hope you all have a blessed day! :)
  • Good afternoon, everyone! Hope you are having a good day.

    I went to Zumba, and sadly, there were ONLY about 8 people in the glass--in a B IG gym with mirrors. GAH. I HATE seeing myself in a mirror as I work out, so it was a miserable hour for me that way. I am THE most uncoordinated person ever. I LOVED getting such a GREAT workout, but lord, I can't move that way. I just can't. :-( THAT is why I stay off the dance floor. ALWAYS. *snort*

    Rhonda don't feel bad, I suck at dancing. But I just look at as I'm having fun! So thats life if I suck I'm out there trying, doing it(maybe wrong) but I'm doing it and so are you.

    I think I am the one with no dance ablitity at all but like Trish said just go with it and have fun.
    Oh Lorrie another way to find the link is to just go to topics and in the search box put DDM Friends.:wink:

    Last night at Zumba, I was right in front of Aaron. He stands in the front of the room between the doors where there are no mirrors, so basically, I'm stuck either looking at him or the door. Not that he's not great to look at but after a few songs I feel creepy constantly in his face, so I moved over to the side of the room where the mirrors are. I don't mind looking at myself now as much as I used to. He still pulled me up in the front of the room for two of the songs. Whenever the song Calle Oche comes on, he pulls me up there to do the routine with him.

    I love that class.
  • Well, that's because you ROCK HARD. :heart: Me, notsomuch. Gah! I will stick to the spin, thank you. I might try a Sunday class again when there are more people in the class. When Marion and I were there those few times, I liked it. I think it was just seeing myself looking like a fool that really turned me off. :blushing: :embarassed:

    Favor to ask...can someone send me a link from ddm? I can't get in at all. Now since I renewed back in Dec it says I am not though I have cc statements and then the letter confirming I did rejoin, I wonder if it is now just kicking me out thinking I did not renew. I did send Jim three letters about this thinking this might happen. Off to email him now that I have his newer email address. Thanks!
  • hey ladies! RJen, good job on the 5 lbs. :)
