Good Morning Mommys !!!

Hello Sandy !! Nice to meet you !!

Lenece~ You are in my thoughts this week as you wait for your news, prayers for good results and the strength for you to get through this time.

This weekend was pretty good we decided to have KFC fro Valentines dinner..... Oh Boy I never realized how many calories were in that food! Good thing I didnt get too hungry the rest of the day!

I bought TBL 2 workout video and I love it !! I want to go and buy the other TBL workout videos that are out!

I am feeling much better and happy to finaly see that scale going down !!

Well everyone have a great day!!!!!

Great to meet all you Mommies!! Thank you all for the warm welcome!

I love the BL dvd's!! I have cardio max & power sculpt! Lots of fun!! I also have Jillian's cardio kickboxing. Acutally, I just did the BL cardio max one about an hour ago!! Love it!!

Have a great day!! :drinker:

Welcome Lindsay!! This is a great group, very supportive!! Good luck on trying for #3, wow you have them all close together. How do you do it? My boys are 4 1/2 years apart and its a crazy enough.

I bought a sportline S12, it counts your steps, heart rate, and calories. The problem is I think it only counts calories based on your steps. I did the Biggest Loser bootcamp and it says that I only burnt like 100 calories, so I don't know what to do. I have been entering it as a 4.5 mph very brisk walking and it says I burn 289 calories or something like that. I guess I should have forked out the money for a good polar F6 that I been hearing about that is like $100 instead of this $40 sportline one from walmart.

Any ideas??:flowerforyou:

For those who have your kids close together dont you find it annoying when people pass and feel they have to make comments like oh my havent you got your hands full I just dont get it coz these comments usually happen when we are out and the kids are being well behaved I always just answer well no actually its great fun. My son was a traumatic birth I had pre eclapmsia and he was born with the succy cup thing and I ahd a lot of stitches and a frightening time he was in distress when I was induced and they were speeding things up so I could avoid a c section (not the done thing where we live neither are epidurals wqhich I didnt get because there was nobody around to do one til it was too late) so it took me a while b4 I felt I could go through it all again so my son was nearly 3 years before we tried again so there is 3 half years between Jordan and Charlotte (she was a bad pregnancy very bad morning sickness then I was told I was high risk for downs syndrome when I was 15 weeks and at 24 years old I just didnt see that coming at all and I was tested twice which showed she was a normal little girl that was when I named her they didnt tell us over here what
you were having but wouldnt have got rid of her anyway but it left me drained and resulted in iron deficiency and me basically doing nothing for the second half of my pregnancy which gave me the most adorable 9lb 8 oz chubby little girl) number 3 wasnt really planned I was breastfeeding and when I stopped when she was 8 months old never got round to sorting out birth control and oops a months later I went to the docs with painful breasts feeling rather foolish oh I think I may be pregnant it was really weird I was pregnant but at the time of my blood tests I was 3 weeks just which is really about a week after conception and they say you cant tell. So there is 16 months between Charlotte and Paige and its great they are only going to be 1 school year apart and they play so well together I wouldnt change anything except maybe win the lottery as I really want another boy but my hubby is booked in for a vasectomy on apr 3rd and I know it is the right thing as I am now allergic to birth control pills but I am sad at the same time it is like so final I wont be having any more babies.

Wow thats my life story!

Didnt do shred today but did my normal workout foot just about held out I have ordered myself some new training shoes (new balance ones) as I think that this is the problem. Its is half term next week and hubby is of for 3 weeks from mon so I got a busy week this week trying to get on top of all my jobs I wont get anything done next week with the kids home. I am going to get some extra exercise in while he is off probably try and get out for a 30 mins jog twice a week and maybe a bike ride once a week on top of my normal stuff.

Tomorrow shred first thing and then normal cardio after I have walked the dogs then I must shampoo the sofa the dogs have been lying all over it and it will start to smell doggy if I dont get it done soon.

hi all. just reading the threads. but i don't have much to add as i'm still in my first week of mfp. i will say, though, that this program helped me a lot over the weekend to not over over indulge. that's not to say i didn't eat extra, just that i cd've eaten more extra. kwim? anyway, thanks for being such a great bunch of ladies! will check in again soon

Yeah I tend to just ignore the comments my own family thinks I am nutts We have 2 dogs already and are getting nother puppy this summer people will have something to say then when I am pushing the stroller walking 2 kids and 3 dogs. that is nothing to 9 kids though well done you I would so love to have more but my hubby would prob walk out I just have to settle for my dogs to satisfy that desire and I do love my 3 adorable kids I love being a stay at home mum well worth the sacrifice of a few luxuries. We also have 5 guinea pigs one lives in the house in my sons bedroom and a long haired bunny rabbit.

Mommy2girls I suppose I am lucky that people asume Charlotte is older than she is coz thats how she behaves and she is tall she is sooo confident she is 4 next month and she has been swimming with no floaties for over a year and 2 days after she turned 3 she begged to have her stability wheels taken of her bike and 1 hour later off she went on 2 wheels it was so funny becuase the people who live round the corner from us decided to take their sons wheels of his bike and he really couldnt do it he was 5 but they were looking at Charlotte whizzing up and down on her little bike and trying to make they son get back on his bike and try again talk about competative parents.

Hey Mommies!!!!!!! Do I have some great news..I DO NOT have cervical cancer:drinker: :drinker: :bigsmile: but what I do have can turn into cervical cancer if not taken care of..I have high grade leasions on my cervix that can turn into cancer if not taken care of...So on Feb 27th I am having a leep procedure..Instead of frezzing it they are going to burn it out:noway: The only bad thing is they want $200 down and its a $1000 for the procedure..Yeah they want a $1000 for a procedure that will only take 10 mins, crazy.. I was told that maybe if I start eating alot healthier and excersing I can get in shape and hopefully make this all go away..Crazyness huh...Theres only a few things that bite about this leep procedure is that no sex for 4 week,heavy lifting,bending,excersing..Basically nothing just like when you have a baby...So this is good n yucky news cuz my house is gonna get messy lol...

Another good thing while I was out today, I ran into an old friend who got divorced and she is not wanting to file banruptcy on her house..I was telling her how we need a different house, bigger n in better shape..Well she wants to sale it to me on contract...How awesome is this..Its a 3 bdrm with basement that can be made into a bedroom..and a one car garage and a nice yard..Good neighborhood n still in the town I want to live in..I have to talk to my bf tonight but I think he will go for it..It has brand new windows all through the house the furance is 3yrs old n the roof is 5 yrs old..I can buy it on contract for about $62,000..I dont have to have any money down, no loan just turn everything on and move in,well take care of a few things first..I hope this works out..I'm praying that it does..

Well I hope everyone is having a good Monday..Thanks everyone again for the prayers..

It's so funny reading the posts about the kids!! My girls are almost exactly two years apart & I constantly get "boy your hands are full!!" & I just give them the biggest, happiest smile that I have & I say "yes they are, isn't it great!!" I'm sure they think I'm crazy, but my girls are good! When we go shopping I rarely have any issues at all & I can confidently say it is great!!
I love that they'll grow up together! I would've loved to have a sister & I feel that having these two grow up together is priceless!! But, I do feel as if I'm done! That's the other thing I hear, "SO, you gonna try for that boy??" :noway: :noway: I have two healthy girls that are my world & that we can support comfortably. If it happens fine, but I have no immediate plans.

lenece - I am SO glad to hear that your tests turned out well, not perfect, but well!! & what wonderful news about the new house! I hope that things work out for you in regards to that!

crystal - I love the comment about not letting the "munchie bugs bite"!! So fitting!!

Hi my name is Jennifer. Is it ok if I join this group? I'm fairly new to the MFP. I have been a member but just now started coming to the website and recording what i eat and things.

PS. Welcome to all the new people joining us!!!:drinker:

Hi there,

May I join? I'm not exactly a SAHM, but I take my daughter with me to work...it's a "family" environment place so I just bring her along. Does that count? I guess I'm a Stay With Child Mom

I just had my first child in October so it's just been 3 1/2 months. She is a sweetheart and I love her dearly, but I don't love the weight I gained! I've lost most of the baby weight, but I still have about 20 lbs to go to get to get to my ultimate goal.

Anyways, if you don't mind, I'd love to join this group for support.
