    Gotta get myself in the shower. DH gets his Bronze Star today, so I'm headed to watch that ceremony.

    That's awesome...congrats to him!
  • Thanks for the encouragement Lori....though it does not make me feel better to see you struggle with the scale as well. I am thankful for your kind words though....so I will just keep on keeping on :smile: Good luck on your trip to Disney. I have really enjoyed my trips to Disney over the years. It's easy to spend lots of money there, too :smile: Also, congrats on DH's Bronze star! You must be so proud!

    MTGirl - congrats!!!

    Yay! Tomorrow I am drinking coffee!!!!!

    Happy Wednesday. Man it's been a long week. Decided to take this past week and not let my life get controlled by MFP. Was nice to not obsess over every little thing. But, am back at it now. But hopefully not obsessive about it...we shall see.

    Sounds like we've had a wide range of emotions this week.

    Glad to be back. :bigsmile:

    Hey all, hope you had a good day.

    We went and saw my DH get his bronze star. I put pics on facebook if you are interested. If we are not friends (Lori Shaak Eckel). We stopped into his office for a few minutes and our daughter was looking at pictures on the digital frame. She saw a few of me and kept saying how much skinnier I was. I love that child! lol

    Have a great night..... what'sleft of it.

    Hello everyone! It's so hard to get so much done in such short time for a dang party. I feel like I have been running around like crazy and I have! I'm ready to relax and get back to normal, what ever that may be. After Saturday it should get better and the lifestyle change will resume! Hope you are all doing great! It sounds like the scale was very kind to most of us. See you all on the other side, tomorrow that is!

    Hi beauties. Checking in. Thanks for the welcome backs. I'm still having trouble balancing work, home, working out and all the little "life" stuff...but I'm not stressing about it. I have a sink full of dishes and don't give a damn.

    72lori Posts: 6,790 Member
    Lynnie, you'll figure it out. At least the twins are pretty self sufficient. Those dishes aren't going anywhere, no worries.

    Renae- good luck with party plans. Just makes me know even more why I don't do those big shin dig things.

    Off to shower.... I think DH and I will celebrate his award....lol.

    Hello team

    I wokr up this morning saying man I wish it wouldd rain so I wouldnt have to run. So I drop my daughter off at school go to the park started my first 1.25 lap and low and behold about threef fourth around my lap it started to rain, I was like man I can run in the rain I will slip and bust my tail, so I was like what am I gonna do I am already out here, so I was like hey I have a membership to the local gym that has no contract its just 3 dollars a visit, its been like 3 years since I have been, so I went down there fro 90 minutes and burne d810 calories it felt fabulous.

    I went to church last night and I am telling you that sermon was for me, telling me not to let the devil get my down, and have self control. It was fabulous also.

    The devil will not tempt me again with bad foods. I plan on one cheat night a month and thats its other then that I am here and focused.

    Hope all is great.

    I'm here! Just came in from my run...didn't get as much as I wanted in before dark, but I'm still happy with it. The weather is just amazing right now, so it was nice and comfortable.

    So excited to have the day off tomorrow! Think I may get up and go to the gym for weight training in the morning, and then figure out what I want to do after that.

    TGIF! It's been a long week. Rolling out of bed this morning was hard, but I did it. I also did my workout even though I really didn't want to. Talked myself through. It's all good.

    Happy Friday!

    just fixed an egg sandwich for my strappin' hunk of a football playin' son-- only for him to spit the first bite out, saying the egg was undercooked-- he's a total *kitten* when it comes to egg white. (don't tell him I said that)

    so, what did I do? Let him throw the whole egg/sausage/cheese on an English muffin in the trash? God forbid-- that would be too sensible.

    I ate the whole greasy thing for my lunch-- since I'd already had breakfast--

    No more food until dinner-- ha-- 8 hours from now--

    Idiot!

    Hi all!!!

    I have been one busy girl today. I started primering the kitchen walls at 10 am. (they are pink by the way) primered everything, painted 3 walls (toasted coconut) and 6 hours later self.com said I have burned 1500.26 calories. um if I have then I'm not eating them all and if I haven't then I don't need to worry about it!! haha. I am planning on finishing the kitchen and the hall way to the girls rooms tonight and then the real hard stuff starts. The livingroom!! Hubs also thought that I was going to be able to do this all by myself. He said to me " I thought this was your project!" and I said "yeah if the living room walls weren't 15 feet high then I would be able too!" JERK!!!

    anyways off to spend some time with the chicklets!!!

    Whew! Marla, so glad you ate a nanner.

    Jeannie- weigh in's really aren't fun for many of us :tongue: Even for me if the scale is down a little it's bitter sweet. Already saw that number... then blew it.. now doing it again. It loses a lot of the excitement the second time around. Now when the numbers go below 151.... then we're talking baby!

    Edit: Wish this thing had spell check.... I can spell ok, but my typing has issues at times.
