Ohhhhhhhhhh they took away my ticker signature :sad: I loved my running plate and spoon. Bummer. I just finished my workout with my hubby at the gym. Time to watch Biggest Loser. My calf still hurts, but I am working through it, taking it easy and icing it. No worries. My son got in a fender bender this morning on the way…

Hi Ladies, I've been reading your threads for the last week starting from April. Amazing job on sticking with the program. I've read the book from the library and finished S1 week 1 on Saturday. I was amazed at how much the squats made my thighs burn. YEA! I've been doing circuit training/cardio jam ( insanity ) classes 3x…

Whoo...Kristel, that's a lot of traveling. I totally understand the sleeping thing. I toss for a good 30 mins. then get up usually at 3 am. Watch tv for an hour then back to bed. It's a real drag, Knock on wood it hasn't happened lately. Drives my husband bonkers. The party was amazing, totally fed my ego. I hadn't seen…

OK my Christmas Challenge ladies....I'm gonna say it now...I miss you all !! :bigsmile: I know everyone is busy and life is happening. I just want you to know I miss you.:flowerforyou: Just throwing it out there. Now for my therapy. I went to the gym last night. Still feeling tingly in the calf. Boot camp class-Lets start…

Funny, I do them all the time, just not with 45lbs. on my shoulders noway I left the gym thinking....gee...two sets of 15 doesn't seem like much . Glad I…

The Rules of Lifting for Women.... I'm still excited about it. It didn't take long to finish the first workout. Less than 30 mins. I'm looking forward to tomorrow. Tonight is boot camp, my calf is all crampy feeling. Tight ? sore, not sure how to describe it. I iced it last night , took some pills and it's still the same.…

Seven weeks till Christmas ?? I better hit that goal. Been pretty stagnant lately on that front. I've been reading my Heavy Weight Lifting for Women and hubby says he'll start with me tonight at the gym. ..... obviously he'll be lifting heavier than me. I'm looking forward to it, I have my workout sheets all printed out…

Happy Monday ! I disappeared for the weekend.... Friday nights party was a blast. Ate too much crap and didn't post any food all weekend. Saturday I woke up with my sciatica pinched nerve again and spent most of it lying around with ice and ibuprophen. Good grief...how does that happen ?? Did I sleep wrong ? I don't…

Don't worry Ace, we're here for you. Make sure you take some fresh fruit and healthy snacks in your bag for the travels. Avoid those hunger pangs by being prepared. You can do this !! I had cookies and ice cream at my work meeting tonight. Finished the night with an apple. :bigsmile: I enjoyed every bite and I'll work it…

I've gone weeks with nothing lost, so 1/2 lb. is a great success !! I only weigh in once a week officially, but I do peek sometimes. :blushing: It goes up and down all week , sometimes by 2 lbs. You just have a to accept that it's only a number and go by how wonderful you feel, the small victories each day....a workout,…

Long day yesterday but I got my workout in.:bigsmile: Dropped off truck for repairs, worked, picked up daughter to shop for costumes, picked up son, worked out, picked up rental car, mine wasn't done:angry: , drop daughter back off, ate a horrible chinese takeout dinner ( lost my taste for it, way too salty...ICK !…

So, now that I already wrote this I'll do it again. I've never been on a topic at the end, so I didn't know about finding the link to continue it at the bottom. Anyhow...my weight is the same 188. :grumble: Not giving up, it's not an option. I still have almost 7 weeks till Christmas to boot the 8 lbs to my goal. A little…

weighed in, still at 188. I ate a huge dinner late last night, so that doesn't help. Mondays are really long, I don't get in until 7:30 from the gym. And I leave the house at 8 am. So it takes a lot of planning for me those days. Snacks...lunch, gym clothes... I'm always glad to see Tuesday. My heavy lifting book is in at…

Gwen, that sounds like a horrible place to work. Glad you don't need to take that job. Good grief. Nothing like putting your best food forward. :laugh: Great job on the losses runninggirl , sam and paxtemore. I love the pic. of the cat...certainly is the season. Okay, gonna brag a little.... My daughters Rugby club is…

Saturday morning is a beautiful crisp day in Western NY . All the leaves are changing and falling and I was at the farmers market at 8 am before the really big crowds. It took two trips to the car to carry all my goodies. I bought more acorn squash and found a spaghetti squash . I am so excited. I had to hit 3 vendors to…

I'm over the pouting thing. It only lasted a day . I worked my way out of the gloom attitude. My weigh in was horrible, but I am back down to my weight from 10/4 of 186 today. Made me feel so much better. I had skipped the gym Tuesday went to class Wednesday and yesterday only rode the bike for 23 mins. at home. I realize…

I went to circuit training tonight. Feeling better about working out today. I need some new spandex pants, mine just crawl up my butt now and I constantly have a wedgie in class, therefore I stand in the back as not to offend anyone. :laugh: I guess losing some of my cheeks, there is nothing to hold them down. :embarassed:…

hmmm.....I always seem to lose that week....I always drink lots of water.

Hey girlie, I'm right there with you :cry: Tomorrow is another day. I've been in a funk all day too. The last couple weeks have been a struggle. We WILL do this....yes we will !!:bigsmile: I'll keep chugging along with you. :drinker: I've been reminding myself all day, this too shall pass and we're doing great. Get a good…

Okay, I'm going the wrong way... 189 this morning. :grumble: So my new focus is weights/ less cardio. It's been too slow for quite a while. I went to this site recommended by a MFP member when I did a search for women lifting weights. I also put in a request for The New Rules of Lifting for Women: Lift Like a Man, Look…

Good morning ladies. I spent the weekend outside in the rain taking photos of my daughters rugby game. ( they are undefeated and onto the playoffs !!) For the first time since I've started here in April, I didn't log my calories. I just didn't feel like it. I don't think I ate too bad, I just didn't feel like keeping track…

Good morning Ace, I am 5'8". I used to be 5'9" , not sure when I started the old age shrinking thing:sad: ..geeze I'm only 44 yr. Maureen, every morning when I comb my hair I put a handful in the garbage. I always wonder how on earth I can lose so much every morning and not be bald. My hair is really thick, and I have to…

Been working the morning shift that starts at 6:45 am :noway: It certainly makes for a long day. Tomorrow is the last of it, then back to my normal schedule. Still doing great on my workouts. I just finished eating a whole acorn squash for a snack...now I'm really full :embarassed: But I was hungry and it's a great big…

I weighed in up this week .188. So much for my ride on cloud 9. :laugh: I keep reminding myself it's just a number and I am feeling really great. My goal is 179... just to be rid of the 8, but my weight according to height should be anywhere from 155-165. My daughter is 155 , and I would LOVE to see that number, but she's…

Good morning Ladies ! NSV - is a non scale victory :bigsmile: ...hunt them down and hang on to tight . Sometimes those are what gets you through when the numbers don't move..very important stuff !! 188 - up 1.6 lbs this morning. I'm not going to get bummed. I ate dinner late ( 7:45 pm) and it was stuffed shells no less.…
