Hi Team! Yeah, I've been MIA for a few weeks. Life just seems to be so crazy these days! Hubby gone on business for 2 weeks, kids on spring break, doing LOTS of yardwork....ect, ect. I have been eating "ok" and getting as much physical activity as I can fit in. Been walking the treadmill at home on non-nice days. As hard…

SW Washington State... just across the river from Portland, OR :drinker:

:laugh: what part of texas? Almost moved to austin last year.... decided NO WAY! Id miss my green, wet weather! Now hubby is there on business with 75 degree weather and Im sittin here freezin my butt off.....:grumble:

Protein and fiber are good things to be over on as long as the protein is lean protein that comes from things like greek yogurt, chicken, turkey, eggs, milk, ect. Fiber, on top of keeping you regular, is what helps you feel full and satisfied, so don't worry about that one either. Protein is necessary for building muscle,…

Sorry I didnt check in over the weekend. I should have. It was not a good weekend for me in terms of staying away from crap I shouldnt eat. Started with Bunco on Saturday. Had salad bar, pizza and since it was my friends birthday, a little tiny piece of bday cake. After that we went out to the bar to celebrate her bday and…

Biggest advice I can give to the busy... take a day to plan your meals out ahead of time for the week. Sit down with your food journal here on MFP and make a plan using it. You can always change it on any given day when you deviate from it, but with a plan in place it is easier to see what you can eat. Then shop off that…

No change for me on the scale this week. Still at 220.4, BUT it was time to do measurements and I dropped 3/4" off my waist and almost 2" off my hips, so I'm doing a happy dance this week!! Would you guys like a healthy challenge every week?? I threw this one out there because its what Im working on improving. It is…

I had one of those "im in pain and dont give a rats *kitten* what I eat" moments last night. Ended up sugar loading on Valentines day M&M's and ate 1/2 the flippin bag. Not my finest moment! Woke up this morning and gave the rest of my candy stash to the kids and told them "under NO cicumstances are you to give me ANY…

Utah- GOOD JOB! Sorry you had a rough day! Vik...go eat!! your low blood sugar is putting you in a bad mood..:tongue: Deb... GOOD JOB on the Dijon Chicken choice. I had my meal all figured out for last night when we went, but as my day went on, I hadnt eaten anything and since it was lunch/dinner for me, I ate my usual…

I just realized that I am 20lbs away from my goal of 200lbs. IF i can drop a pound a week, I should reach my goal by July 8th.... just in time for my trip to Vegas on the 10th!! LOL!! Here's to sittin by the pool in a new swimsuit surrounded by hot men, sunshine, and a talllllll cold adult beverage!!:drinker: Now if that…

Miss- Breaking the sugar addiction is hard stuff. I have a huge sweet tooth and have to constantly remind myself that "a smaller waist size feels far better than that sugary treat will taste!" Thats my mantra that keeps me from indulging every single day in the ice cream. Just keep in mind that in moderation it is totally…

:noway: would I think that!! I appreciate the nudges!! Especially when things get crazy and busy here. Its what keeps me focused and going in the right direction. Happy to know you have my back girlfriend! :0) Thank you Thank you!:flowerforyou:

Deb, didnt answer your IM because it wasnt me online. Allie was playing my Cityville for me, but she told me you came to harass me about getting back on MFP so I came to post here. THANK YOU for breaking out the padded slipper on all of us!!! We love you for it!! Im going to go hit the gym here in a few minutes and get…

Wow, you guys all had a great weigh in yesterday!! I didn't remember it was Friday until I figured out today was Saturday. Somehow Lulu's mixed up days affected me also.. LOLOL Anyways... Im down to 220.4, so i also lost a pound this week. The biggest change I have seen this week is how my leather riding pants are fitting!…

LOL Lulu, I hear ya on the water. I drank a lot of it today and made many, many trips to the potty. Funny how some days it flows right through and other days I hardly gotta go at all. :0) Hubby and I went in to sign up for our 30 day free trial with 24 hour fitness today. We have 30 days to check out this gym, but I can…

Debbie- I am so proud of you too!! This weather is nasty! I hate being cold :grumble: Keep it up girl! My friend Amy popped in on me tonight to use my treadmill because its so cold outside and she is training for race run coming up in 2 weeks.

Sorry I've been MIA lately. Work has been catching up with me. Things are slowing down tho, so I should be able to get back to posting regularly. I am no longer keeping a food journal with MFP... its just too much for me to do since I plan my meals another way. BUT, the scale seems to be ok with that...So far, so good!!…

I got in 3 nice miles of walking today with a couple of friends. Then... once they left the park, I realized I had parked my motorcycle face in and on a slight slope. It wouldnt have been a problem, except the ground was dirt and my boots didnt want to create traction and my legs were tired from the walk, SO... instead of…

Welcome!!! Feel free to jump in wherever :0) :drinker:

In terms of exercising... its easier.....I get in, get it done and go on about the rest of my day because I have all the time I need. In terms of eating... its harder and I always crave the comforting sweets. I havent caved at all from my eating plan this time tho, even tho Aunt flo decided she was going to show up AGAIN…

:drinker: I will TRY to get here every day to post... promise! Might not be until later in the evenings, but I will definitely make more of an effort to post daily.
