Zraik, wow congrats on 20 minutes straight I'm still at 90 seconds, .

FF, Good to know about taking a day off from IF won't hurt. I might eat with the family this morning.

Hey guys, doing a quick check in. So far I've had eggs, and sausage for breakfast and german meantballs for lunch. DD stood with her fingers in her mouth at her ballet performance this morning! Oh well, she wasn't the only one who did that by far.

BTW Belle, the horse I'm betting on is called Eight Belles!

I hope she wins riot!!!!!!!!!!!! what a lucky name

zraike - thanks for the info! I will pass it along to her. She is running 3 miles straight (she started out walking and built up) but can only do the 10 minute mile for the first mile then it's more like 13-14 minutes each. I've never been a big runner either. I played tennis in college and we had to run 2 miles each day even when we weren't in season. I hated it. We didn't have to do that when I played in high school! But I've been way too heavy for the last 8 years or so to run so maybe I'll like it more when I'm back down to what I'm supposed to weigh. Right now I'd just like to be able to walk without complaining lol!!

Menu:
B: pork bbq
L: iced coffee with cream and splenda
D: steak and salad

I went to a fair thingy today so I wasn't able to eat lunch, only drink my iced coffee but I'll make up for it at dinner! We're going to a steakhouse

I got 2 miles in today thank goodness. I almost forgot what it was like to actually exercise.

I don't remember Heidi in any of the old Laguna Beach episodes either but I remember them talking about being friends back then when the Hills started so I figured she went to high school with all of them. I guess she wasn't in many episodes because Laguna focused on so many more people than the Hills does.

Whatever, I don't like Heidi. I think Audrina needs to pick a guy that actually showers, ew. I think LO is pretty cool - she seems like she's down to earth (as down to earth as you can be with that much money I guess). Sometimes Lauren gets on my nerves when she tells Audrina that Heidi is just being friends with her to get under Lauren's skin. I mean, the whole world doesn't revolve around Lauren and can't someone actually like Audrina without trying to get close to Lauren??

Is it just me or do the scenes with Stephanie and Spencer look a bit staged? The last few times they have been together arguing it just seems awkward and staged. She'll say something like "I don't think that's very nice Spencer" and it's just a weird moment while they're staring at each other. I don't know - I don't really like either one of them either. I think Stephanie is being friends with Lauren to stir up drama.

Ok that's enough for now

Mmmmm, I totally HAVE to make some peanut butter fudge tonight, I've been around delicious looking carbage all day, and I'm dying!!!

They killed my horsie! Well, not MY horsie, but the one I bet on. She totally would have won. She broke both of her 2 front legs, and within minutes after the race they KILLED her. WTH? I don't get the whole horse thing, apparently. They said horses can't recover from broken bones? Snix is that true?
I can understand that maybe they can't RACE again, but really, a broken bone is fatal??

Even after breaking both her legs, she still came in SECOND!!!

Belle, pretty much all of the hills is staged! Do a google search on it, and you'll turn up a ton of stuff. If you pay close attention, you can see stuff the producers apparently forget. Like in the same "scene" Lauren's hair will be one way, they the next second, it's a different way. Or the color of her nail polish will change. Supposedly all the basic storylines are real, but they do stage a lot of the footage. Does that make me love it any less? Hell no!

good morning ladies:

I feel like staying op during the weekends are sooooooo hard for me. i'm going to continue with IF today. Hopefully that will help. TOM really puts my body out of whack. Not only do i get angry and irritated with everyone but also gain weight. And....Oh the chocolate craving!! i sooooooooo wanted Choc ice cream last night. but instead i grabbed my diet pepsi and sipped angrily at the world.

I'm kinda excited to go shopping for something today.Also, my jeans are giving me the poopy pants look so i might even try on a pair. (wish me LUCK)!!!

Hey everyone! Just on real quick to post my menu - we have a ton of stuff to do today

B: leftover steak; coffee with cream and splenda
L: hamburger patty; cheese; onion; pickle; mayo; mustard and a little leftover pork
D: cabbage with ham
80 oz water

I didn't know that much of it was staged but I always kind of wondered how they always followed around and knew when they would be where, etc. I'll have to google that sometime....

Hey guys!

Just a quick hello!

Well I've been sticking to IF but have had LC slip ups, I think I use IF as a crutch too much "Well at least its in my window" is my new fave line, but I'll give myself a quick swift in the rear and do my best (during the week is the easy part, its these damn weekends!

So I was looking into the egg cream thing, what do you guys think/know about those???

I was thinking of trying one for a "meal" once I open my window (4p) but since I'm already only having two meals a day
4p & 9p (my window is closed as soon as Im done, open a little longer than I'd like, but my lunch hr @ wrk is @ 9p plus if it was earlier I wouldnt be able to last til 2a)

would that be too extreme? only 2 meals and one being the egg cream?? I'm all about losing a ton of weight (and the easiest/quickest) is always nice, but I dont want to set my self up for failure

by the way my 2nd meal usually only consists of a green salad and grilled chkn breast.


open to all suggestions

will be here tomorrow for chk in, even though it wont be pretty

Finally home. It's been a busy day.

I don't know what it is about being at my mom's house that I can't stay on plan!! She always makes sure there's LC stuff, and I even brought my own food today. I even brought my LC peanut butter fudge to avoid the sweets. Well, unfortunately that didn't happen! But I'm not worried about it.

We had a big family to do today. And I'm over the pictures everyone took. I finally requested people STOP showing me the pics they were taking. Good thing that it's common knowledge about the camera adding 10 pounds, I guess. I swear, looking in the mirror I see one thing, but then in a picture I'm seeing myself 20 pounds heavier than I looked in the mirror that morning! UGH!

Anyway, I'll be back in a little while to chat. Where are you FF?

Hey gang. Eating was awful this weekend. I am so ashamed of myself.

We're going to a Mex restaurant tomorrow for Cinco de Mayo, so not holding my breath I'll be on plan.

I am still going to the gym, though, and back OP by the eve for sure. I'm even baking another chesecake right now! Just a plain one this time.

That is SO me. Granted there are days where I look in the mirror and recognize how disgusting I am....but NEVER do I see myself looking the way that I look in pictures. It's depressing. Especially when you leave the house thinking that you look pretty good, and then someone snaps a picture and you look at and you think "wow, this is scary that I can't see this when I look in the mirror."

I had that excruciating stomach pain again yesterday afternoon and all night.

Menu today is
L: 2 HB eggs
D: Taco Salad
S: almonds

FF - great job!!!!! you're losing like CRAZY!!!!

I'm pretty happy about 2.5 pounds. I was hoping for 3 or 4 since I didn't have a good week last week but any loss is good.

I am the same way about the pictures. I look at myself in the mirror and I think I look good in what I'm wearing and then see myself in a picture and think OMG how did I walk out of the house like that?!?!?!? It's so weird and I wonder when I'm going to look at myself in pictures and like what I see....
