REPOSTED TO GET EXPOSURE THAT A STICKY MAY BRING............

SOOOOOOO what about it?...stumble along...give it a go!!!! COME ONE COME ALL

PUBLISH OR PERISH

hello kilo's...

well..had a good trip away..was both profitable and enjoyable..not generally easy to get at the same time..

new stats as from the start of the month..458/324/200..on target and on time.. i look forward to cracking the 300 ceiling... not soon but about 4.5 months which will soon be here..

does anyone have any experience with measuring body fat with tape measure and using formulae.. not a diet but a way to measure body fat..

the myth of loose skin http://www.bodyfatguide.com/LooseSkin.htm

or body tracker http://www.linear-software.com/online.html

i have chosen to lose weight relatively slowly so as to have a permanent weight loss... but it may assist with a non saggy appearance as well..
i have recently wondered if the food composition on atkins can be tweaked to have the benefit of low body fat at the same time.. or if in fact that is already an atkins benefit...?

also some recent reading has suggested that some exercise is more beneficial to weight loss than other types of exercise..ie
aerobic exercise for weight loss.. anaerobic exercise for muscle gain..
also of course there is conventional thinking re calorie deficit for weight loss with aerobic exercise...and calorie excess with anaerobic exercise to increase lean body mass..
but i am confused ...take jogging...
sprinters are usually heavier and muscular..a sign of anaerobic exercise..
while long distance runners are usually whip thin...a sign of aerobic exercise..

oh well..perhaps i will have to solicit views more widely to get an answer to these musings..

in the meantime i hope all u guys are as well as you can be...

congrats to mandydee upon her taking the red cloak of adminship.. couldn't happen to a nicer person...

Hey!.... u dear ol' chook....u were the one who was late....please accept this brown eye with extreme prejudice...

Stressful times at red's house. My DH's grandpa died on Monday night. We will be out of town Friday and Saturday for the funeral. DH is a pallbearer so he needs a suit. DS's will need dress clothes as well. That is what happens when you wear jeans to church. No longer have dress clothes in your closet.

I have decided I need to start some exercise. Just haven't committed 100% though.

[Melly]

Red sorry to hear about your loss. May God be with you and your family to get you thru this time

I want to personally invite you to another thread I post on. It's sorta kinda an exercise thread but it is GREAT support more than anything. We have a great group, mainly girls, there and I am sure you will find some familiar fonts Come over and check us out

Well, rehearsals are officially OVER. I just had the dress rehearsal tonight. This weekend will be tough, I am on sat and sun, but after that it will be easier. I am pooped, headed for the sheets. I just wanted to pop in and say hi.

Melly, I will definately check that out. Probably next week when things settle down.

We went shopping last night for DH to get a suit. We had to buy shirt, tie, shoes, belt, pants, everything. The only thing we didn't have to get is underwear and socks. DS's needed shirts also so we got them too. Not fun shopping with 3 boys. I volunteered to just go buy them all something without them but DH said he wanted to come along. Would have been easier without them.

I had frozen hot wings for dinner. Yuck. Now I am craving something sweet. I might get a scoop of peanut butter to "wash them down with". Why are the wings in a restaurant so good and the ones in a bag so gross?

[Melly]

Hey everyone......just popping in for a quick hello.....I was off today and had a very hectic day of nothing but ripping and running.

Dawna hope you are feeling better and it's always great to have you in here

Tony I can't tell you how much I love your posts....it scares me because I actually understand them.....I missed you when you were gone

Roro it sounds like you have been ultra busy as usual......hang in there girlie

Red I will be looking for you on the Christmas Challenge thread once the fog clears at your house

I found out a couple days ago we have 2 household of New Orleans transplants around the corner from me....they lost everything and are starting over.....they feel blessed to have escaped with their lives.....what a wonderful outlook they have.....how could I ever complain about anything.....I am so blessed

Red..I'm sorry for your family's loss

Yes, Tony..you are my first..and like you mentioned...I'll never for get my first :inlove: ...are you scared yet? I may be more diminutive in size than I once was, but I'm still a whole lotta woman hehehehehe

Mandy when I said "sorta" what I meant is that it is MORE than just exercise....although we all know how you love to crack the dang whip....now get over it

OK so I will catch you all up on what is going on in my neck of the woods.....Aliyah woke me up Thursday night about 1 AM...I guess it was technically Friday morning.....She had thrown up ALL over the place. So after I got her cleaned up and moved to the couch with a trash can and everything covered up that was anywhere close to her, I proceeded to clean up her room OMG it was awful.....poor baby.....I was scraping up french fries and even pickles from her burger....she ate at Micky D's that night. It took me nearly an hour to clean her room. Even yesterday all day it stunk to high Heaven in there.

She spent the entire day throwing up. At one point she was dry-heaving becasue she had nothing left to throw up. Everytime she tried to put anything in her tummy (water, coke, chicken noodle soup etc.) it came right back up. When I called school to tell them she wouldn't be there they said they had alot of it going around.

Well she finally threw up for the last time last night about 7. I went to work yesterday long enough to do payroll and then went back home. I was trying to get ahold of a girl from church to come stay with her but didn't hear back from her until about 5 last night.

I didn't get any sleep, needless to say, as I was up with her cleaning out the trash can every time she threw up and trying to comfort her as best as I could. So I was tired. I think I went to sleep about 7:30 last night and slept straight through.

So I am at work this morning but not feeling so great....PLEASE God don't let me be getting sick.

On a side note...Please keep my friend Julie in your prayers. She found out this week she has a brain tumor and is having surgery Monday morning to remove it. She and I have been friends for several years and she is single and really has only her girls who live on their own and friends. I know she is feeling very lonely and afraid. Thanks guys.

[crado]

good day folks...

well..all ok here...

food ok..exercise curtailed because of weather..some work..bit of this and that...

melly ...hope things settle down for you..

1 red and mandydee hi to ya's....

regards tony......

[cheri]

Hello everyone... Sorry I haven't been posting. Been having problems in my family (My sister in law almost died) but things are getting better... Eating has been a little off (I am a stress eater) but I haven't been eating too much of anything really.... Going to start induction again.

Melly... sorry your girl was so sick. I hope she is feeling much better now. I will keep Julie in my thoughts and prayers also sweetie... I am an optimist and I think she will be just fine. One of my Aunts had a brain tumor and had it removed and she is doing great.. they got it all and her prognosis is good... this was over 5 years ago now and she is still doing fine.

I hope everyone is doing well.. I will try to pop in a little more often.

and lots of love to you all!

cheri

[Melly]

Thanks Cheri......I will never understand why bad things happen to good people. Julis is one of the sweetest people I know. I know God has His reasons but sometimes it just is beyond my understanding.

Man I feel like I could throw up but haven't yet......wish I would....I think I would feel better
