OK, so I keep trying to get on here and read all that I managed to miss out on over the weekend, and then I get all kinds of overwhelmed and don't know where to start. So I'm taking the lazy girl way out and just stopping by to say hello to all! My weekend was INSANE. It wasn't supposed to be. We were supposed to just have…

Thanks guys for all the awesome support/feedback on my sister's craptastic situation. I really just needed to vent, and you all have good advice. I thought about suggesting councelling, but I really don't know if Mike will do it/care. Becky has definietely vented her frustrations to him, and has told me that she thinks if…

Amy that dress is SOOO pretty. Love love love it and it will look great on you. Plus the price?! What a freakin' steal! Lacey, look at you being all rockstar awesome and P90Xing post bbq food. You are a bad@ss. I am fighting a killer, killer headache today. I just bought a Monster to curb it. My morning was all kinds of…

Pam, BACK AWAY FROM THE SCALE! I know everyone else has said it, but seriously, that .8 pounds is NOTHING, and you don't need to stress it. As for your weight loss, I think that probably 1/2 of us in the group lose the same way, and I think it is all due to TOM. The week before, I either gain a little or don't lose at all.…

Hi Girls! Yay for a new challenge! Kristina, I am SO happy to have you "back." Seriously, you have always been such an inspiration, and its going to be awesome to see you bust through your previous lowest weight. We are here for you, and I will harass you whenever needed to keep you in gear. (((HUGS!!!!))) Lacey, I really…

This. Is. Awesome. Good find, Lacey!

A lot of times for a light lunch a snack I just eat a huge pile of edamame at work. People always think its weird.

you look AWESOME! Great job and congrats and calling yourself a grad!

Just yesteday my MIL looked at me and said "you look scrawny." I tried to deflect it from me and point out that my husband has also lost weight, and she said "well, he looks GOOD. YOU look scrawny." PLEASE. I'm still wearing a size 12 pants for pete's sake. I seriously think that people just have unbelievably skewed…

I would snack ALL DAY LONG if it wasn't for green tea and water. I always have one with me. I think part of it is just boredom or wanting something to occupy me. Green tea does an amazing job of making me feel like I'm full, plus I get to drink something out of a coffee travel mug at work, which helps keep me away from…

HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY VICTORIA! :heart: :heart: :drinker: :drinker: I hope it was an amazing day for an amazing woman! Besides that, I didn't run yesterday, but I did today. 3 miles in 85 degree weather at 10 in the morning? Eek. My average heart rate while running was 180. yeah. HOT. But I did it. Yesterday I played…

Weighing in today at 181, which is .5 pound down from last week, which I will totally take considering 4th of July weekend happened in there, and its TOM. Lacey, YAY ON YOUR LOSS! So exciting! I have been hungry ALL week, and I can't seem to shake it. It sucks. Kendall, the house stuff just sucks. If I knew what your ex…

Lacey, I totally agree that calorie cycling is a good idea. I think I have been doing it without really trying, just because I normally eat more on the weekends, and I do think it helps. Plus, why not give it a try, and why not set yourself up to succeed on the weekends? Its a win win!

Hello hello hello ladies! Kristina, I'm sorry I missed the weigh-in (or... am I? I'm not sure... to be honest, yesterday morning my scale said 180.5, last night it said 186.7, this morning it said 182.4. I'm at a loss. I did eat Qdoba for dinner last night, so that could seriously all be water weight). I'll weigh in on…

You could TOTALLY do P90X... seriously, if I can do it, you can do it. When I started it I weighed 209 I think... I'm 5'9".... so yeah! Don't be scared!

CONGRATS!!! :bigsmile: :heart: :drinker: :flowerforyou: :heart: :drinker: :flowerforyou: :bigsmile: I completely think that stupid BMI is a bit ridiculous, because I've seen pictures, and there is NO way anyone would have looked at you recently and thought you were obese. You are doing so great, and are a huge inspiration…

You are looking so much more TONED... way to go! I just finished the 90 days on Monday - I saw awesome results, and will for sure be doing it again. Keep it up and can't wait to see your P90X grad post!

Hey guys! Finally some quietish time in my life to do some responding to you beautiful people. Work is again, quite hectic this week. We had the regional team (so that work's out to be my boss' boss' boss' boss"... yeah... big wigs) in to walk our store yesterday, which is super nervewracking, so I spent a bunch of time…

Lacey, you will be there in no time woman! You are rocking it!

Lacey, you will be there in no time woman! You are rocking it!

Thanks so much for all the positive feedback everyone! Everyone who's thinking about/starting P90X, just do it... bring it every day and you will see amazing results!

Seriously, Amy... you are so much of an inspiration to me. Thanks for all your love and support, you are incredible!!!

No, YOU rock! Thanks for all your support!!!

I'M A P90X GRAD! I'M A P90X GRAD! For those of you whom I'm not friends with on here, (and why aren't we friends, by the way? I'm really nice, I swear! And supportive!) :wink: I posted a success story with all my stats. No pics, I suck..... I've never posted a pic on here and I totally took before pics but deleted them,…

Awesome question... not sure if my answer will make much sense but here we go... I look in the mirror a lot. Not like in a, "oh look how awesome I look" kind of way, but in a "is that a muscle I can see? Is my back flab really gone? When is my stomach going to actually be flat? Will it ever be flat?" kind of way. I…

Hey kids! Whoa, I'm posting on Saturday... yeah, that's a first. Too much beer at Festival of the Moon last night = lots of head pain today. But I just finished core synergistics in spite of it. (2 more days, 2 more days, 2 more days...) Kendal, there is NO way I could have Kit-Kats in the house. Or any candy besides M&Ms.…

LOL - Lacey, Chris and I were actually talking about this while I was driving into work this morning.... we were thinking about having "Wine Thursday," and just figuring out some healthy little crudites to have and then just drink our dinner. Seriosly... I am a wine club member so I get 6 bottles every month and we're…

Karen, it really isn't too spicy at all - I will probably throw more peppers in next time to kick it up a notch... I think the kids would love it!

http://www.williams-sonoma.com/recipe/black-bean-corn-quinoa-salad.html?cm_src=RECIPESEARCH I made this to go with turkey reubens with avocado slaw for dinner last night... only things I changed from the original recipe: -I used a whole can of reduced sodium black beans -I used extra virgin olive oil and only used 1/4 cup…
