I was not feeling good yesterday. So hardly ate at all. This morning my weight was 148. Almost worth feeling poorly. Kathy said this would be a great month and she is right!

Started walking last week. Getting my back exercises done. And the usual 100,000 x 0 planks!

No walking yesterday but an hour of killer-bendy yoga. DDD can bend all over the place...me?...ouch...ouch...nope...eewwee...this sucks...can I go home?...We did have two darling puppies to distract us. Tater and Tinkerbell. Both tiny terriers.
So, 141.6 this morning...up two pounds from Sunday...salt/peppermint...egads! I am glad I reordered the peppermint because DH had tummy troubles last night and the peppermint fixed it. It's just a good thing you don't have to go to the pharmacy to get it!!
I will behave the rest of the week. The peppermint is for our trip with the kids to San Francisco Zoo and dinner on Sunday the 8th...our 35th anniversary!! Man! 35 years and he's still alive...go figure!
Love you guys!

164.5 today. Little bounce, boing. Not going to stay the same every day either cuz of having 2 Tbs of hummus at 10pm instead of not eating after 6pm. But can't lose weight every day, that wouldn't be healthy; 1-2 pounds per week.
Chris, where did the terriers come from. cute cute cute! And congratulations on 35 years. Derek & I are on your trail. We've been a couple for 29 years (and still alive).
paula1 -
We workout at our trainer's house now. They are her puppies.
Congratulations to your and Derek!! They are lucky men...

140.4 this morning at 5:00. Better...walking in a few mins then workout w/out trainer here at our house. DDD and family have plans w/SIL's mom.

176.6 this morning. Happy 4th everyone! Happy 35th Anniversary Chris.

165.5 today - got a gain when expecting a loss. Not stressed though. My eating is healthy, so even though I don't know what caused this bounce, I'm sure it will auto-correct.
Kathy, I get a little thrill seeing each new post from you. You weigh thirty pounds less than when we first. It's really exciting to watch!
paula1 -
Congratulations, Kathy!!! 30 pounds! That's so great!
Chris1 -
Happy Anniversary Chris! Very busy these last two days. Tell you all about it tomorrow.
Shell0 -
Thank you, ladies!!
139.4 this morning at 5:30. giggle...giggle...giggle!!
Chris0 -
Chris is under 140! congratulations.
148 this morning.
Shell0 -
Thank you! Thank you! Let's hope I can stay under at least until Sunday. SF Zoo then anniversary food and dessert.
DH is not feeling well today. Looks like the flu...hope it's the 24 hour kind. We didn't walk this morning, so I went over to DDD's and walked w/her and Ronan. SIL joined us about half way through. Stopped and played at the park for a bit. Ronan was all smiles and giggles.
Going for an MRI on my spine tomorrow. Hope it shows them why it's hurting.
Chris0 -
Good luck with the MRI Chris. Hope it gives you some answers.

Chris, Hope you and your DH feel better soon.
And congratulation to all for posting such great numbers. Mine went up again 166.5 - when I looked in the hummus container I saw the reason why. Have to nibble less and hummus and gatoraid have too many easy calories.
Paula1 -
Yeah....130's didn't last long...140.4 this morning at 6:30.
Gotta go ...walking w/DDD, SIL and Ronan.
Chris1 -
167?? Not sure why it's up there. I've seen some before/afters for people who gained weight but got smaller (more muscle/less fat) - it's either that or damp hair this morning. I only ate 700ish calories yesterday.
Waiting for the bounce to come back down.
paula0 -
Wet hair will do it, Paula. I'm hoping I'm back down tomorrow, too. I didn't have wet hair...just a scale that doesn't like me some mornings.
MRI was about 20 mins and very, very loud. ugh! Everyone was really nice tho.
Hope DH is up for walking tomorrow. He is much better. I think he had a touch of the flu.
Chris0 -
141.0 this morning at 6:00. no walking so far today. Working out w/trainer at 9:00 then haircuts for DDD and me at 12:30. Weather reports say it's gonna be HOT, HOT today so I'll have to see about walking later.
I know!! My weight is up because it is so HOT, HOT outside and I'm retaining a crap-load of water!!! That's it!
Love you guys!
Chris0 -
Got my self-correction today - 164.5.
Chris, Hope DH is feeling better. Sorry about the HOT HOT crap crap water water water!
paula0 -
Congrats! Paula! Good going!
Well, tomorrow is our anniversary...I'm just starting the celebration early then.
After haircuts we put gas in the car for tomorrow's trip to SF Zoo. DH put together Ronan's DVD player w/10 inch screen for the trip. Supposed to be cooler in San Francisco tomorrow. Peppermint on stand by!

Safe trip, Chris!

Hope all goes well Chris. Fingers crossed for you both.

Thanks, my friends. I'll have DDD and Ronan to distract me. DDD said the trip to the zoo is not bad and only an hour.
140.8 this morning at 4:30. They had the fireworks celebration last night in the soccer basin. We must search the park and the basin for treasures this morning. I'll let you know if we find anything interesting. Last year we found a cell phone. DH managed to find the owner and we mailed it him.
Have a great day you guys!! Stay out of trouble and EAT CAKE to celebrate today.
Chris1 -
164.0 correction complete.
paula1 -
Thanks, Paula and Good Job completing the correction!!!
We found a lot of purple bead necklaces, a number of pens and markers, sunglasses and regular glasses, and $2.00!! It was a good hunt. Didn't get to all the parks because we were on a time limit.
The zoo was great! The drive home was miserable. There was an accident on the Bay Bridge that backed up traffic for miles and we were at a crawl for at least an hour, if not longer. I thanked the Peppermint Fairy over and over again!!!
The kids are coming over for dinner and fun.
Chris1 -
Aahh!! Thank you, Paula! Perfect! My mouth is torn up but I made it. Now to get rid of leftovers from yesterday. Dinner was sandwiches from Mr. Pickles. I don't know if you guys have one near you but ours is really good. I had a turkey wrap that was really spicy. Didn't realize the spread on it has such a kick! It was good.
They we had a Grown Up Ball Battle with all the balls in Ronan's ball pool. Hundreds of balls flying threw the air at us! Girls against boys and Ronan running back and forth hitting everyone and everything with balls!! It was so fun because you can hold two or three balls in you hand and toss them at someone or something!! We had so much fun yelling and screaming!! The living room, computer room, and dinning area were covered with balls...under couches, toys, anything three or four inches off the ground! And getting them back into the ball pool turned into another mini ball battle! How many grown ups and almost two year olds does it take to clean up the living room??
bwahahah!

141.2 this morning at 6:30ish. Not too bad. Back on track today. The trash will be fuller in a minute. Cupboard will be clean.
Chris1 -
164.0 again for me, but yesterday it was a hair above and today it was a hair below.
I remind myself that lo-carb doesn't guarantee weight loss, it just kicks cravings. Still requires a calorie deficit to make the scale move down down down...
paula
Chris, You have a wild and crazy family. Goofy grandparents. Free spirits. Lucky Ronan!1
