Happy Monday to all! Last week was really rough and this week is starting out the same. We're closing in on the last few weeks of rehearsal and things are getting hectic, like they do. The show is going to be fantastic, but there is still so much to do! Trying to help alleviate some stress and anxiety for our director by…

Truth Thursday - I really enjoyed working out the past two nights, despite the calf pain yesterday and the post-exercise jitters so late at night. I don't know if it's because of having a workout buddy, or because I really like this gym, or if I'm finally just at the right place in my life to really make a fitness…

Oh gosh, guys, I feel like such a flake, but I'm having a hard time finding time to do anything other than track food by hand the last few days! I've been working til 4, rushing home for quick dinner, rushing off to rehearsal til 10, and sleep, rinse, repeat, PLUS - hooray, success and miracles - I actually went to the gym…

Just ducking in on a spare moment at work. I weighed in again this morning, and found that the scale had not lied yesterday, so I'm mindfully celebrating 18# down. Normally when I start losing a fair amount, I slide back down the slippery slope, but I am trying to be really careful this time. Last night, I was offered a…

Some days I weigh myself and I don't believe the scale. This is equally true whether it goes down or up. Anyway, somehow I seem to be having success this time around, again (even despite the birthday weekend), so I'm floored but also skeptical. I'm gonna weigh in again tomorrow to see if it stays around the same number,…

Happy Tuesday all! I was gone 2 days longer than I planned, but I am back. Thank you all for the kind birthday wishes! Dinner on Saturday was a lot of fun, but I had too much to drink and was pretty miserable most of Sunday. I rallied for dinner with my family on Sunday evening, and fortunately I had yesterday off, so I…

Just wanted to check in and say hi. Having a really rough week, personal crap and work crap. My 30th birthday is Monday, so I'm planning ahead for the big birthday dinner party on Saturday night. We'll be cleaning (woohoo.) Saturday morning, so I'm gonna make sure to throw some dance party mix on to boost my calorie burn…

@BJ - As someone who has experienced similar treatment from an HCP, I have to say I think there is nothing worse than a doctor who only sees a patient's weight and not the patient as a person who is (in your case) making a journey towards better health. I would definitely recommend seeking a more understanding physician,…

Happy Hump Day everyone! @skinnyjeanzbo – I’m just outside of Appleton. Are you also in Wisco? @RobinB – I’m with you with the exercise limitations. Trying to ease into it to avoid further back injury has been a real struggle for me. I wish you luck with the swimming! @hayley – Oh boy, I don’t remember the last time anyone…

JNettie - a friend recommended a Jillian Michael's Beginners video and another one called "The Fat Chick Works Out! A Safe, Easy and FUN workout for Klutzes, Wimps, and Absolute Beginners." I want to start with something low impact because of my back injury... every time I even start taking walks, I seem to reinjure…

@skinnyjeanzbo – I went to school for musical theatre and founded a local semi-professional company with two other actors with whom I went to college. I grew up in Chicago before we moved to Wisconsin and my parents always loved watching old movie musicals and every ounce of Shakespeare we could possibly get our hands on,…

Hope everyone is doing well. Sorry I was so slacking on responses last week! I'm going to try to check in more often to keep myself accountable. @kah – Thanks for the suggestions re: elliptical and treadmill! I’m going to try to start using the treadmill at my parents’ house a couple times a week, and the hubs and I are…

Hello!! Newbie-ish here - my name's Amanda and I'm returning for my third try at MFP. I've bounced back and forth between WW and MFP for a few years now, and I always find myself the most successful on MFP, so I'm back. I'm just about to turn 30, and my husband and I are hoping to get pregnant for the first time in the…
