    What up everyone???? Where the heck are you all? I am doing great on day 3. Beautiful and sunny here in the Yukon and I have been outside most of the day doing yardwork :bigsmile: . Have to do my taxes tonight with the accountant so hopefully will not want a drink after that :explode: ! Hope you are all doing great and not whining lol.

    Laura

    Laura, wait! You mean I'm not the only person who is doing her taxes this week? Argh!
    Just got home from a kick *** yoga class, really hardcore....350 calories burned!
    My library doesn't have either of the dvd's you all like, so I guess I'll shell out the $$$
    Doing ok, but feeling very edgy...ahem...(DH)

    Jen-hope your mom is doing better today, and that you're having a mellow day!

    Not doing well :sad:

    Somebody give me a swift kick in the *ss. Some weeks/days are so much easier then others. :explode:

    It sounds like the rest of you are doing well though. So proud of you all! :drinker: You inspire me and I WILL DO BETTER! One day at a time, right?

    My future son-in-law has 91 days under his belt...that floors me! I'm trying to string two days without together and struggling. Sigh:yawn:

    Hopefully next time I report I'll have better news. I'm going to be out of contact for a little over a week so I'm sure going to miss my MFP. Wish me luck! :drinker:

    What? No one to kick me in the *kitten*? Okay then! This was a pretty unsuccessful week as far as the no wine goes but I was VERY happy with the scale this morning when I dropped over a pound. I haven't seen a drop in a while so I'm a happy girl and more motivated then ever to keep on keeping on, I WILL reach my goal. I'm half way there! :drinker:

    this sounds like me. I have been enjoying my wine in the evenings too, and staying close to my calories. I just want to limit my wine to one glass a day, and that's where I am struggling. Hopefully next week I can do better. :smile:

    I'm with you ladies, if I could keep it to one glass there would not be a problem! Congrats on the weight loss, it's nice to see that we can still enjoy ourselves and reach our goals. It may take us a bit longer but we'll be a lot less grumpy when we get there, right? :blushing:

    Lol - well at least I'm not the only one! My boyfriend cooked dinner for us the other night and served it with . . . wine! So, I caved and had a glass (or two). Bah, no good. He is taking me to Cinco de Mayo this weekend as well and I'm debating whether I can get away with one overpriced margarita.

    I like your thinking. :happy: I don't gain any weight, but it is slow coming off, partly because I am close to my goal, and also I like to enjoy my nightly wine.:drinker:

    Mel sorry about your water heater, that would certainly drive me to drink! I forgive you for not kicking me in the *kitten* then! :bigsmile:

    Deb so sorry about that damn wagon!!! Enjoy your weekend, Monday will be here soon.

    I'm off to San Diego for the week for a business trip and I'm not even going to pretend like I'm not going to be enjoying some vino. So for me...It will have to wait until 5/11/09!! :drinker:

    Happy Sunday to everyone :)

    Where is everyone :)

    We attended a art and wine festival yesterday, the beer was flowing and then the wine was pouring when we got home :grumble:

    Oh well, live and learn :) Small changes.....

    I've decided to start the Lean phase over with Chalene Extreme tomorrow which means by June 3rd I'll be starting p90x... I'm ready... time to clean up my act ;)

    Hope everyone is having a fun weekend :flowerforyou: :bigsmile:

    K, today was day one for me again! Arghhh! I totally fell off the wagon and drank wine with MIL, ciders (cuz it was hot out) and a few vodkas over a 4 day period. So I am offically (again) on day 1. My son's big concert for breakdancing is on the 29th so that gives me exactly four weeks to get in shape and look great at the show. It is my short term goal. That means no booze to mess me up.

    Wish me luck again, GAWD!

    Good Morning everybody! My little runner down below seems to be running backwards!!!
    I am FULLY committed to doing it this week. Did great last week with exercising, but had a lot
    of parties, etc where I just didn't even try watching my alcohol intake.
    Any exercise plans this week anybody?
    Here's to it!

    Day one for me as well :) Art and Wine festivals, bbq's and more !

    Last night I was drinking my wine, getting my buzz on LOL and I was like am I really enjoying this ? Is this REALLY worth the frustration I feel when I work so hard at working out eating right then ruin it with this. Do I really want this to be the way it is..... something for me to ponder I guess...

    So I woke up this morning and luckily didnt gain any weight from Friday... and actually had lost one of the 4 lbs I gained last week when I had lost 5 then gained them all back the next day... water who knows...

    So I sat down last night and worked out my plan of working out. I used to get up at 4:40 am and workout but now that my hubby works days, it disrupts him if I do that because the dog gets up etc and he still has another hour sleep. So then I tried working out when he left which was not the same time every day and then that fell apart when on some days I had to stop my workout to take my son to school then come back. Then I tried after I took my son to school and that works out great but for the fact by the time I drop him off, come back, workout and then take a shower it's almost 10:30 am and my day feels shot. The other choice is not working out at all, so I 've chosen this week to try the working out after I drop him off at school.. If I have my DVD, weights and I'm dressed to go ready, that will save some time and then if I get my stuff by the shower, that will save some time too :) We will see how it goes today.. Bottom line, I need to get the workout's in... that being said I am starting the LEAN phase of Chalene Extreme OVER.. so I'll be doing that for the next 4 weeks and then going onto p90x...

    I'm ready... I'm done.. and I'm ready to sore ! Remember your mistakes do not define you, they tell you who you're not ! :bigsmile:
