tlh: great job on the planks! :) aimee! Congrats on hitting your goal! Nettie, that's awesome about the position!!!! YAY! Robin... best wishes... see you when you get back! Susan, I'm glad it was a lovely trip. I'm sorry about your melt down. Most of us have been there. :frown: Congrats on shaking it off. Also... nice job…

I can't wait to start gardening... I already have my seeds. I'll probably be starting some of them inside next week. I'm going to try to grow some asparagus this year. A lady on another forum raved about it. I am so happy spring is here though it's really damp right now. I need to go do more raking and do some cleanup...…

Wow! I got busy couldn't keep up and lost almost a whole month!!!! There is so much going on in here!!! I'll just say Happy Easter to everyone. Everyone's treats sounded and looked delicious. I went a little crazy before Easter.. baked cookies, 6 loafs of banana bread and for the first time ... made key lime pie. I made it…

I might be interested... if I can kick this string of bugs I keep catching. Theres a fun 5k walk/run in my neighbourhood and I like to do it. Let us know when you start.... maybe it'll help me get my butt in gear. :)

Wow Etherlily, With family like that...:noway: Holly, I don't have to worry about that yet... thank goodness. The kids are too small. lol! I think you should go bike riding. We don't really forget... it comes back really fast. I suggest short distances at first, it came be uncomfortable till you get used to it. Hope you're…

Happy Birthday!!!!

Thanks, for the support guys! I'm still pouting a bit... I want the 222 back. :sad: lol! I'll get there but it's thrown me. I've upped my exercise and a watching my consumption closer. It's creeping back down. :ohwell: Holly, sorry about your little one. Hope he's coping ok. Still what a way to go into Easter weekend.…

My only two cents is... if you can make some just you 2 time. Get out and do something with just your hubby. Which I know can be hard. Just hang together... our focus on weightloss can be a bit tunnel vision. He might just need a break from hearing about it and time to see that you are still the same woman. :) My hubby is…

I'm in. I got it lucky today. I'm going to the waterpark this evening... ugh! ALL THOSE STAIRS and 3 kids! I'll feel this burn tomorrow. lol!

Hey Dan! No monthly list of what we lost.... must've been a bad month! lol!

Lisa, I think the 1340 a day is stupid. (I'm being blunt and everyone else is being diplomatic). At the weight you're currently at (and I started at it) you'll be HUNGRY all the time. This will make you... or allow you to make bad choices which will blow your lifestyle change out of the water. Anything you do to start now…

Etherlily, it's great that you care. But I have a feeling you're one of the fix it people. That's NOT a bad thing. When something isn't to your liking you want to change to fix it and that's a STRONG way to be. Some people aren't... they're not happy about the situation but it is more comfortable to stay the same than it…

Etherlily, It's great that you're back! Singularity, the dance mob looked like a lot of fun. Holly, Maybe once the job issues get settled... maybe it will with family too. You have a whole lot of stress on your plate right now. Just be careful with eating under... it could lead to a binge. Stress is a natural appetite…

I only just saw this today but, I think I'm doing ok. I started up walking the kids to and from school again on Monday. Right now just once, since I'm trying to get my little one to walk with me without the stroller this year. So I'm building her endurance up. lol! I also found a different Zumba instructor on Youtube and…

bump... I get off for spring break and miss 12 pages. Wow! Catch up later. :)

I love these challenges... I'm in for another round. :happy: With the weather starting to turn for the colder climates, we should see some more movement this month on the scale and elsewhere! :laugh: SW:287 (though highest was 310) CW:222 #1GW:250 (completedDec14) #2GW:215 LTGW:135 April GW: 215 Weigh ins (thursdays):…

Holly, I am so sorry! Work sucks! I just went through this and it's maddening and upsetting and ... bleh!!! Maybe you'll find something better... that treats you with more respect. The place doesn't deserve you if it won't recognize what an important asset you are. :mad:

Maybe some of last week was water weight. :happy: I'm getting…

That's great Crystal! I bet it gave you a nice boost of confidence for the interview too!! Congrats!!

Michelle, it must of been stressful with cutbacks... it must be a load off your mind to know your job was secure. Very scary. I totally understand about being sick... got hit with 3 different bugs that took me out for 10 days. Finally got some energy back in the last couple of days. I would really like to know why…

This is a miracle!!! I'm feeling much better... so back to work for…

I can't plant outside yet either... I'm going to start seed trays in my living room. :happy: It's very nice that your hubby exercises with you. Mine at this point is supportive but still wants to be lazy. Apparently what I do looks like hardwork. :laugh:

Paula, I know I get SAD. Part of the reason I moved out of the lower mainland (BC). The weather is generally more temperate but 3 entire months of NO sunlight...just rain. I had just had my first and I was already pretty housebound. I'd rather be freezing my butt off than have no sun ever again. People are so happy even…

Hey folks! I'm finally on the mend. Got hit with 3 different illnesses...:sick: That's what I get for being healthy all winter. :grumble: My exercise has been severely down and my eating control is all over the place. When you're bored and don't have the energy to do anything, it's very hard to not snack. I'm probably…

Hey Holly, I hope everything has evened out! How did it go with the doc? In my opinion make your husband get up and deal. When you need sleep ... you need sleep. His turn to suck it up. :tongue: My hubby and I take turns. Though right now he's in my good books. He's let me sleep in for for a week an a half in a row. I got…

Kaye, I totally understand why you're upset about the phone number. I can't explain it rationally but I would've been too. tlh, I'm glad you're feeling better! Did you take the Wilton courses? Your cake looks great! Karenleona, do you think you are ready to go back to work? If you do... I hope it works out the way you want…

What a great job!!! You should be proud of yourself it is a huge accomplishment!

That's a great idea!!!!
