Weigh-in: 208.6 Up from last week, but only by .2....guess I shouldn't complain about that too much! Pam, just FYI, I won't be able to weigh-in next week, so my next weigh-in will be December 12th. Hope all of you had a great Thanksgiving!

Weigh-in for this week: 208.4 Pam, I just realized that I didn't post a weight for last week! Ack! Sorry about that. I stayed the same last week (209).

Ha, someone beat me to it! You look great!! Nice work!

*************** Weigh-in: 209 ************* Woohoo, outta the teens! Kristin, you saw onederland on the scale -- that totally counts!! :smile: I'd be up for a challenge...I'm looking for something to keep me in line through the holidays too. I was actually going to set up a personal challenge for myself to get in 24 hours…

******** Weigh-in: 209 ********* I really REALLY don't want to jinx this, but I just noticed that I lost some amount of weight at every weigh-in in October, and now the first weigh-in in November too! I'm crazy excited! Oh please please please please let this continue... Amy, that stinks about Loki. Hopefully she can get…

Update on the spinning bum: Okay, yeah, I'm totally sore/bruised down there from spinning. BUT, it's not nearly as bad as it was when I tried spinning 3 years or so ago, so I think those padded bike pants definitely help! The soreness isn't enough for me to not spin again though; I'm going to convince Tim to go with me to…

^ Same for me! Maybe the instructor said 175 and not 75? :smile: In order for my HR to be 75, I'd have to be in bed or sitting around doing nothing. I did a spin class yesterday and mine didn't even go down to 130 until I was off the bike after the class stretching.

I found a spinning class at the gym on the other side of town, woohoo!! That should count for extra since I hunted down the class, shouldn't it? :laugh: Anyway, it was great!! The 40 minutes flew by, I burned about 400 calories, and since I had the padded pants this time I *think* everything is okay "down there." It wasn't…

Shoot! I just looked online and found out that the spin class isn't happening tomorrow. The gym is close to the university football stadium and there's a game tomorrow, so no classes at the gym. Boo! I guess spinning will have to wait until next week.

Yikes, I haven't posted all day and now I'm horribly behind! Let's see, what do I have... Some of you saw my status today about my jeans practically falling off of me at work today (yay!), so I went shopping tonight to find some more because I am officially retiring 3 pairs of my jeans for being too big (double yay!). The…

Victoria, have fun! And share pictures! :smile: Karen, welcome back, and congrats on the house! Great time to get back into it; right before the holidays when most people fall off. You can do it!

Katheryne, the veggie sausage doesn't really have a casing, it's just sort of compressed together. The kind I got in London was HUGE and made fresh that day...so good. Usually they're just in a package at the store and you just pop them out and fry them, microwave them, or cut them up into recipes. So sweet of the hubby to…

You can make 215 for sure!!

Slow day at work today (so far) and I'm very happy about that because TOM is driving me nuts. The happy news is that I stepped on the scale this morning (even though I never weigh during TOM unless I have to) and my weight is exactly the same as it was before TOM...I've never had a TOM without a weight gain, so I'm hoping…

Woohoo, Jessi!!!!

AMY, OMG THAT DINNER...!!!! I just finished it and already can't wait to eat the leftovers for lunch. So good!! Thanks again! Hosanna, yay for the LIA two days in a row!! Fantastic! Ami, I do Zumba on Kinect and it doesn't have much jumping. You should be okay with that one!…

Nava, I was going to mention that about the fun size candy too. 40 - 90 calories for something not even as long as my index finger? WTF is that? I say that after having eaten 3 1/2 pieces of "fun" today.

Kiki, I have the exact same problem with lunges! Like you, I'm fine with squats, but no matter what I try I just can't get my knee close to the floor on lunges. It's like you said, it seems like my knee just won't bend that way or something. I'm really flexible normally too; I can bend over and put my palms on the ground…

Good morning! This board has been fairly quiet lately (compared to normal), so more time to catch up! Yay! My morning has been a series of blunders, so I'm hoping it can only get better. Woke up with barely enough time to do Ripped in 30, got downstairs with the bf, and then couldn't find the DVD. It's normally right next…

Weigh-in: 210.8 Happy Halloween!

YAYAYAYAY, Kristin!! You might be in onederland by next week! Great work!!

Happy Halloween!! I weighed myself this morning (which is actually my "official" weigh-in day) and I was back to 210.8. Hooray! So as it turns out, my weigh-in from yesterday is official after all, with no cheating the TOM salt bloat. It still amazes me that going over on salt can tack on an extra pound and a half (or…

Weigh-in this week: 210.8. Hope you're having fun at your Zumbathon, Pam!

Quick weigh-in: ********************* 210.8 *********************** I have been at 210.8 for pretty much the whole entire week week (one or two days at 211). I know this because I've weighed every day, even though I shouldn't. Then this morning I was up to 212.4 due to impending TOM and copious amounts of salt yesterday. I…

Lacey, somehow I missed the carb requirement part...wow, that would be really hard! Keshia, weigh-in is sometime Friday - Monday; everyone has a different weigh-in day sometime between Friday - Monday, and we just make sure that we post our weight by Monday morning. My brother isn't going to make it until after dinner…

I had a ridiculous amount of work to do today, and now I'm missing you guys! Also, my brother and his wife are coming into town from Ohio tonight, so I will probably be waaaaaaaaay behind by the next time I'm able to really post. Double boo. The quilt class last night went well; I did a couple of things wrong but they were…

So cute, Amy! I bet those little things taste amazing too.

Holy cow, I last posted yesterday afternoon and I still feel soooooo far behind! Okay, let's see how well I can do catching up here. First, Power Pump last night was great! Not really like Body Pump except for the fact that it was strength training with weights and music, but it was still good. It was a KILLER though. It…

^ This is what I've heard too. Both of my feet go numb on the elliptical! I love doing it, but no matter what I do, after 30 minutes.....YOWSERS.
