Do you know why there are no horse pictures today????? Because I haven't seen my horse this weekend. Had to work until midnight Friday night, then over 13 hours yesterday and since 8 this morning. I am almost done but have a thing to go to for one of my daughter's college selections (Notre Dame) from 2 to 4 - so still no…

Exermom - you must be rich if your husband retired as one of the highest paid executives - no wonder you can afford such a lovely pool!!! I am not an executive, but I am a professional in IT and honestly I wonder why they don't get rid of all the over 50 crowd. We all make 6 figures and you know they could hire the…

Megblair - hope you feel better. Jane - that is horrible. I have the same sort of thing offered to me for my Achilles which is bulging from the heal of my foot. That doctor said six months with my foot extended in front of me while in a wheel chair. Then followed by physical therapy. There is no way with 3 kids, a full…

Well my pound is gone (sure wished I hadn't gained it.) Weighed 158.6 three weeks ago, 157.4 two weeks ago, 158.6 last week and 157.4 this morning. I would have panicked if any of the pound had still been there, but I was sure hoping for 157.2 - any loss from the prior week at all. I looked back and realized that since…
-
Same here - I have a fitbit that adds a lot of the calories I am burning back into what I can eat. My base calorie goal is 1340 a day, but I average between 1450 and 2000 and have lost a pound a week average since August (I started at 184 and am currently 157 and am 5'7" tall). I lose slower if I don't eat most of my…

Yay Linda!! Laura - I sure hope your accounting woes end soon. Karen - I don't sleep well either. Staying asleep is my problem. If I can get a good 3 hour block of time without waking up then I feel rested.

So the pool party is on!!! Soooo, I have finally come up with a New Year's resolution. My official New Year's resolution is ---- My size 10 clothes will always be my "fat" clothes.
-
Yaaayyyyyy, Laura is truly back now!!! Robin, 15000 steps, you rock. The only time I am able to get that many in is when I ride my horse. It thinks every step he takes, I take :smile: Can't post any more now as work is demanding my attention. We are getting so big we're going to have to break into sub groups soon.

Pool party :drinker: at Michele's house - and we'll all be in our new bikini bodies!!! @SueB - 1.2 pounds - Yayyy!!! I hope that is me Friday - The pound it said I gained last Friday plus at least .2 :smile: Thanks everyone for saying nice things about my horse. Next time I promise not to cut his head off :flowerforyou:
-
Thanks Liz and DeeDee and Exermom and Lin - he's a great horse, I should quit cutting his head off :laugh: Well today is Monday. I've been fairly good and greatly active this weekend. I am very much wanting to see that pound that showed up last week gone by Friday. I can do this!!!:drinker:
-
Have to do it. It's been awhile :smile: Rode my horse today - first time this year. Just rode around my property. He was great. Not a great picture but am sharing anyway.
-
So . . . I've been weighing myself every day since my Friday weigh in showed my first gain (1.2 pounds). The first day showed a bigger gain and this morning showed exactly one pound. So I am putting my scale away and hope that this Friday shows the pound gone. I am going to ride my horse today for the first time this year.…

You guys are terrible at tough love - way too nice :flowerforyou: But I will get back on track. I think not getting enough sleep is partly responsible. Sundance - I put the timer on the fitbit (as it says to do) when I am going to try to sleep. It then tells me how long it took me to fall asleep and how many times I woke…
-
Ok, I think I need some tough love. After seeing my first gain this morning since I started on August 3 I have felt down all day. So what am I doing at this exact moment???? Binging on the left over chocolate chip cookies my son made last night. I've had 3!!!! And I was at my calorie goal before I ate them. Haven't logged…

Cute.

Welcome. However, this message board is usually for before and after conversations and pictures. I think you should go post on the introduce yourself board. Good luck. It's slow but it's not hard.
-
Ok. Chocolate chip cookies before bedtime are not a good thing. My scale said I gained 1 1/2 pounds this week. It's the first time it moved in the wrong direction. I am going to wait until tomorrow and see if it's still there. On another note, my fitbit says I wake up 12 to 18 times a night and usually have a sleep…

Crossing my fingers for my weigh-in in the morning!!:ohwell:

Megblair - dancing until you have blisters and singing until your throat is sore - now that's a New Year party I want to go to!!!:drinker:
-
Hey everyone. Don't have time to read everything - (but I did scan for my name :blushing: ). Yesterday was hubbie's first day logging - he came to tell me he was 21 calories over. I asked if he'd put in the meatball he'd snatched from the leftovers and he hadn't. He's going to realize how logging every bite of everything…
-
rjadams? I went back to try and find a post where you mention someone getting to you, but couldn't find one. Who is getting to you and why or you letting them? The only one who gets to me is my husband's ex - who sleeps all day and lives on our money, but that's another story. You have me worried. I read your profile -…

Tried to faithfully log the New Year eve's party. Realized I'd forgotten the chocolate chip cookie I'd eaten - brought me up to 2680 for the day. Darn. Fitbit says I burned 2187 for the day so that's technically 493 extra calories in one day. I am 108 extra calories since my last weigh in - so technically if I can…

Happy New Year everyone!!!

Welcome back to it Viv. I'm not exactly sitting on the wagon these last few days either. Tonight is the New Year's Eve party and will be a complete food fest. I lost through the holidays, but if I don't gain from the last 5 days it will be a miracle. Last night was a total surprise. We met friends at their home in Chicago…

Celebrated Christmas yesterday with my grown son. All dips and chips and meatballs and sweets. Very bad calorie day. Today will be just as bad also. Celebrating my husband's birthday with friends in Chicago (yesterday was his birthday). She made jambalaya and we made meatballs and there's sure to be lots more yummies. Then…
-
Aww DeeDee, I hope you figure out the exact formula for losing. Excermom - I think think your "Excermom" describes you perfectly. You seem to exercise more than anyone on here (except maybe Barbie and Laura). You must have a rock solid body. Well yesterday I was horrible. I ate almost 1200 calories for breakfast!! So I…
-
Ughhhhh. I ate a days worth of calories in breakfast!!!
-
Sundance and DeeDee, both under the weather? My entire family just went through taking turns being sick, my husband was by far the sickest. Hope y'all feel better soon. Linda - oh my. Is Denise your only child? It is so difficult to see our children self destruct and feel useless to intervene. My 34 year old stays…

Major drama tonight. Right after our Christmas dinner, my two sister in laws got into a huge fight. One is always really really drunk or drugged and precedes to criticize everyone about everything. Tonight she was attacking the hosts daughter and her sister told her to quit being so disagreeable. Usually no one says…

Merry Christmas eve. Off to the in-laws. Already entered my calories for what I'm about to eat. My husband said, "4 oz of Prime Rib?? How am I supposed to give you just 4 ounces?" We'll see if I have a need to eat more. :drinker: Happy eating everyone!
