Hi everyone, Mary, I like the idea of the slacker race too. I spent the summer just looking at my bike. It needs alot of work. 40 mile race sounds like a long one. Maybe I can get excited about it next summer. Mechanicmom, you have just inspired me to get off the computer and get my aerobics done before the day is over. I…

Hi all, guess i'll have to dig my kitty pics out. All your kitties are cuties. I have four of them two of which are brothers. Today after i finished driving the bus I came home and did an hour of aerobics. I didn't like the way a pair of pants were starting to fit. I'd been slacking on the cardio anyway. All the kids on…

Wow you are all so busy, I feel like a slacker. Lets see 20 minutes of raking. Followed by 30 minutes of mowing lawn and 30 minutes of gardening. See no little ones to run after, thats the easy part for me. Then two bus trips one in the morning and one at night. The bounce house actually sounded like fun. None of those…

I was told I had it and to eat apples alot at least 3 a day. I don't think I had it because it hasn't bothered me again. I just think the doctors were stumped. I wish you luck in your weight loss. You have a really positive attitude which I think helps.

I know what you mean about emotional eating mechanicmom, when I get sick I tend to eat alot to compensate for feeling miserable. I am glad to hear your son is doing better on his meds, I remember what the terrible twos were with my kids and I empathize with you. But you have the right idea right at hand, when you can get…

Hi Mary, I just popped on to log some food. I haven't been here for awhile and just wanted to connect with apost again. I was up early too so I just started the housecleaning. I haven't been doing any formarl exercises, so I say good for you that you are. I am finding it very hard to get back into the exercise mode and I…

Hi , I read the book and then was so caught up in real life I forgot to post. Well everyone is gone but me so here's my time to post. I really enjoyed this book because I love dogs even though I own 4 cats and my daughter acquired her first golden lab about 4 months ago that she named Jesse, although we call him Hoover…

nuts are a good source of protein.

I went to the site and it said I should weigh 139 seeing as I am 5'4" and since I weigh 166 I guess I have along way to go. I was shooting for 150 guess I will have to rethink the goal. I haven't been doing to good lately. So back on track. The exercise is hard for me, I had a back that gave me problems last year and this…

Congrats on the weight loss and I wanted to ask one question, what are you eating for supper that is lower carbs? I am trying to get back on track again too, I had lost 45 and have put back on 6 and my ticker lies(LOL) because Im not a techie and don't know how to change it. But if you are eating carbs after 5 pm what kind…

Hi all long day, started driving at 7:30 am to take middleschoolers to a play two hours away. Watched Shakespeare's "As you like it" and then drove two hours back. Then drove my regular afternoon run which was another hour. By the time I made it home and got supper I wasn't up for anything else. Tomorrow is the primary and…

I still watch the Beverly Hill Billies and I remember Mr. Ed too. What a fun thread. Anyone remember the Mod Squad? All horn and electric piano music!

And I fell in love with these guys when I was young, but now I think their theme song is dumb but hey I was only 16 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pxPppXaPonY&feature=related

hey lets not forget Hawaii Five O http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6zbgEl5lwvk&feature=related

After I listened to the twitch I just had to go find this one Meet George..... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0VUShB7nVPw&feature=related

Happy Anniversary Banks! A year and a month for me but I didn't get around to posting the Anniversary of it. I can't believe it's been a year, it just seemed to fly by us. It was a really fantastic year though. You always had another piece of info to share whenever I came on to log food, you made the fantastic IM site…

Hey I might try the rolling pin thing, my legs hurt. I started the day out well, then donuts called to me and it went to h**l. I did do my hour of walking, and most of my waters. I just seem super hungry lately and want alot of sugar and I don't know why. Oh well tomorrrow is another day and I'll try again. One of my goals…

Hi everyone, did my hour walk today and a little bit of gardening. Got on the scale and almost cried. I had gained 8 lbs. Don't know how to change the ticker to make it right but I don't care because I'm bummed out about it. I knew I wasn't paying attention but I guess I will have to get back to logging food and not eating…

You are way too funny! I wish I lived near a gym so I could go, but I live in a small town and all the people know why I'm walking, and everyone waves as they go by in their car. I used to be embarrassed to be walking because everyone would know I'm trying to lose weight but now I just enjoy it so much I look forward to my…

Hi, does anyone have any ideas on how to make a lite version of blackberry cobbler. Tis the season for the berries here and everyone wants some made. I'd like to do it without gaining ten lbs:laugh: :laugh: I love it but too but don't want the calories that go with it:bigsmile:

2 hours of blackberry picking today, started my 1 hour a day walking before bus driving. Hi Cheryl,how you doing? I don't remember what SBF stands for anymore.

I'm just the opposite, I'm a school bus driver and I actually do better during the school year. I drive to where my bus is parked an hour early and walk for an hour, then drive all the kiddies home. I don't do so well in the summer, I just want to laze around. The only thing that keeps me going is gardening. Also a plus,…

Well I like pancakes and waffles, egg mcmuffins, you know. But what I actually eat is fiber one some skim milk and a banana. That or oatmeal which is the biggest bang for your buck or I should say calorie consumption. If someone could come up with something great tasting with no calories they could get rich quick!

Yea, I added potassium and sodium. That's alot of numbers to check though. I will try it for a week and see if I like it. But I guess that means I would have to actually enter the food. :tongue: I've been lazy for about a month and I guess it's time to shape up, no pun intended. Back to work, but I'm not doing bad, I've…

Hi, spent 5 hours today processing corn for the freezer. So no structured exercise.But I counted it as 5 hours of food prep. My friend and I put away 2 bushels. School starts next week and my goal for this year is to get in 1 hour of walking each day before my route. I have someone who wants to walk too so I will have…

Funny, my hubby promised me a cruise when I hit the final goal weight. But with fuel prices being the way they are we aren't going to fly anywhere to do that. Hey Banks do you ship out of Boston on that cruise? I've been on two already and loved both of them. Most of them are kid friendly and have camps for the kids and…

vvk is fibro stuff, fibromyalgia? I have it so I wondered if it was the same? I hate being cold! That's a bummer living in Vermont lol.I stopped walking and my knees hurt, so I have to start again. Oh well, just wanted to chat.

I know I'm starting this late but I need something to motivate me. Labor day is what 4 or 5 weeks away? I'll try it. Start weight 205 a year ago Current weight 161:sad: Goal weight 150 Weight to lose by Labor day, let's be realistic at 1 lb a week,so 5 lbs, I would be happy if I could get there.:smile: Tomorrow I will…

Congrats Tam, so how long have you been working on it? Because I've only managed 45 lbs in a year, but I think you've done a fantastic job. I wish I could be as motivated. You rock!

someone kick my butt! I can't seem to figure out why I don't want to do anything lately. I have no get up and go I don't want to exercise and all I want to do is eat! It is going to become a problem soon! Have any of you had this happen? If so what did you do to get back on track? Well gotta go grocery shopping and not…
