hi all! i am still such a slacker. luckily, TOM is finally past, so i may just weigh today..but after this binge week since the wedding, I am dreading it!! i need to really get back on track with logging my stuff..i feel so burnt out. Someone at my job got fired and I am picking up her slack..so i know alot of it is…

hey yall! well its monday again, i am back from charleston, where my best friend had her wedding. it went great! i will link you guys to my facebook album for it...let me know if you can view it..i am not sure if you hve to be a member of facebook to view albums or not...…

Thanks guys, I appreciate the support..its just such an odd feeling that is almost impossible to shake. .. oh and as for the date TNT, so far it looks like April 18th!

hi all..well yea, the thread kind of digressed a little there for a minute. but the update is, the we found out that the instructor who passed away was the same guy that josh was strapped up with :( so needless to say it has been a somber day

sounds like a beautiful excuse to exercise! I am jealous!

weee ha! i tend to have the problem of burning more than i can eat also, which we know is bad bad bad!! do you happen to have a heart rate monitor? that is a good way to get an accurate reading so that you know how much you really need to eat back. you also have to consider the calories you would have burned anyway, if you…

hi allll! well I just wanted to tell you guys how excited I am..we finally got to set our wedding date! So as of April 18 2009 I will officially be Emily Moss!! i also plan to weigh this afternoon, so i will let yall know

yup, i should have said hubby to be instead of just hubby LOL being a do-er is the way we always have been..it just hit so close to home..timing wise again on the hubby note, we did set a date!

and I can attest to the polar being worth the money. I have a cheaper version, that works ok, but I wish i had invested in the Polar, and plan to replace my cheaper one once i have the money

Hi all, I have been a bit of a lurker on the boards lately, but i just wanted to find out how many of yall have ever been sky diving?? last weekend, we went to a very reputable place, for my hubby to go skydiving with his best friend, whos wife is expecting. All went smoothly and they had a great time. then today on the…

mmm but I thought the 'macaroni and cheese' colored crayon was called that because it was so yummy to eat... i guess ive got to find another fix for my waxy plastic non-toxic craving!!!lol

thanks CB!! its my favorite one, and id love to have it added to! you can kinda see it here too

I have a bee!! i love it. It is technically flying out of my pants on my hip LOL but it symbolizes my middle name, Melissa...if i can find a pic of it, i will post it. I also have stars on my achilles, Musical swirl on my back and a henna colored/styled trinity design across my sternum.

that sounds about typical. i think for me in general, i burn about 500 calories an hour, depending on my intensity that day. on days i do cardio and strength training in the same day, (for 2 hours total) i am usually in the 1000 range...i loooove my HRM!

oooh hon, if it was like, 60 miles closer, i would TOTALLY be there. Stupid work in the morning! you are with me now in the 828, even if we can't spend time, at least we can share an area code! lovin to you and J!

i think a really cool cross would be awesome. Have you considered a celtic cross? thats my FAVORITE and id like one myself! so i just wanted to suggest that style of cross because there are some awesome dainty ones, and awesome knotty ones!

yyyaaaay jen!! you are really looking awesome! you will be at 135 before you know it!! i am so anxious to get smaller before my wedding! i am aiming for six months away, but will wait an entire year if worst comes to worse. the place i chose determines when, so pray for me that they have something open in april!! i don't…

hey all! well, things are pretty much still steady with me, just very very busy! I have done much better eating so far this week, and burned 700 calories in zumba alone on Monday!! another exciting thing in life right now, is that our best friends Ben and Mandy, who are due on Sept. 22, asked us to be the God Parents! I am…

lol this thread is funny... my hubby to be comes from a Clemson family, so they are all addicted to college football. poor poor Clemson. but thats beside the point. it is time to gear up for another season of yelling at Tommy Bowden on the TV and getting our game faces on! LOL i personally don't care either way, so i just…

hi all! sparkles, back, and better than ever. ok maybe not, but i know i have been MIA. I have been on a plateau lately, stuck at 158 for an entire month. BUT, as some of you saw on my thread earlier this week, that i finally got engaged!!! i am the most happy girl in the world, and have gained up a few pics to show you…

yay! thanks for the bump!! peeled avacado remove the very large pit guacamole love

i wanted to post the newer pics!!

you guys really are too sweet!!! now my parents and grandparents know..and i am so excited to go into work tomorrow and show everyone! i am strugging to keep it off facebook ...i wanna post so bad, but there are just some people in my life that I know will check it tonite, and i want them to have a chance to hear it from…

i do it all the time actually...which also includes special occasions :) here is a photo of this henna before it faded, along with its counterpart on my palm i do them all on my own, and actually have a little side business going doing them for others. way fun!

thank you guys so much! we live far away so i still haven't had a chance to tell my parents! (they need to call me back!!!!) So i decided to post on here since i cant post on facebook or myspace yet (i want a few peopel to find out from me, not the internet!) anyway..thanks again all!! i am so excited i could just faint!!!!

It's true, it's true!! He finally popped the question today! I am walking around on cloud nine!! Those of you who know me, know that i picked my ring out back around March or April and have been waiting ever since... we went on a hike, and we had stopped at this beautiful little clearing where i mentioned something about…

i just wanted to reiterate what viv said, as i think it is an important point that took me a while to understand. I also wear an hrm, and it takes a while to get into the habit of deducting your 'sitting there' calories from what your HRM reads. i have to admit i was disappointed that after an hours of pilates, and…

here are some funny ones for me

i knew what the site was the other day, but now ive forgotten. can someone tell me the link to the website that puts your face into the vintage year book photos?!
