Hello ladies!!

Sorry I have MIA. I have been so busy!!! We had the funeral for dh grandmother and was either there or visiting his family. Then my brother and his family are in from FL. So we have been visiting them. Trying to get things ready to go to the beach on Sunday. I have been very busy!! Late nights and early mornings. I took a nap today and yesterday. I am just wore out and so are the little ones.

I am glad everyone is doing great!! Glad to see everyone on here.

KimmerJ · 07-18-2008, 01:58 PM

THERE you are! Have a great time at the Beach and relax! You've had a stressful week.

heidi21062 · 07-18-2008, 02:15 PM

Hey Tonia!

KimmerJ · 07-18-2008, 02:31 PM

heidi21062 · 07-18-2008, 02:34 PM

Thanks Anna.. she seems to have a pattern of 2 "good" days and then 1 "bad" day... Brayden was colicky so I keep trying to remind myself that nothing she's doing is as bad as he was..

Baby Layla fussy??? How can that cute little bundle be fussy??? Working out everyday with a newborn....I am so impressed!!!! My 'baby' is 21 and married and I still don't have time to work out everyday!!!

I sure did get your message baby cakes!! It sucks though cause you girls are on during the day and I can only seem to get on here at night for a lengthy amount of time - ah well - gotta do what cha gotta do! Thanks for the invite! Working out everyday is pretty tricky - but relatively easy to do when I'm just pushing her stroller .. or Wade has her during the day when I'm doing my weights Mon-Wed-Fri .. don't forget - I'm not working so it'll be a challenge in January when I go back to work

That is SO awesome!! WTG! I remember how I was on WW - I'd have all of my weekly extra points gone within the first day... so I know how hard that is - GREAT JOB!

I have exactly 4 weeks until I start my new job so I'm going to try my best

I'm right there with ya Cyn - on and off Atkins about 4-5 times now but this time I'm 3 weeks in almost and feel GREAT! Since the other ladies are doing WW we can hold ourselves accountable together!! I think Monet is still doing Atkins too? Anyone else?

Now I'm off to shower. I'm taking the kids to the mall to find the rest of their outfits. They are auditioning for a talent show tomorrow and we're still missing a few things. BBL!

Great job on the workout! I should be getting mine in but I'm waiting until Layla is in bed..... no distractions

Good luck with the kiddos and the talent show audition - let us know how they do!!!! (*What are they doing anyway?*)

Well I hope all you girls had a great day and will have a wonderful weekend!
My day was fairly ok.. Since I started Atkins again on the 2nd, I've just kinda been winging it and not really counting my carbs - I've started today counting them and we'll see how my weight loss goes now

I bought Ketostix today and they actually turned dark mauve - they only turned a little pink before when I tried Atkins a year ago - YAY! I must be doing something right this time!! hehe..
anywho - I'm off to go buy some low carb stuff

I love the internet! hehe

Wow!! 3 weeks is AWESOME Maggie!!!

Thanks for the well wishes! Kayla my 8 year old (blue dress in my avi) is doing "Our Song" by Taylor Swift...she is singing and has a cute little dance she does with it and Kelsey and Benjamin (older two) are doing a duet from the new Disney movie Camp Rock. I'll be sure to let ya'll know how they do!

Alright Cyn!

Good luck! This is the start of something wonderful!

KarbieGrl · 07-21-2008, 11:53 AM

<<listening to the crickets chirp>>>

Where'd everybody go???

KimmerJ · 07-21-2008, 12:24 PM

Good Morning Ladies !!! Maggie, Anna, Karen, Cyn, Heidi, everone!!!!!

Finally!!! WHEW!!!

I had to wait of course at the Doc's office. I am 15 pounds LIGHTER than I was last year at this time!!!! My Blood Pressure is normal!!!

The Doc and I had a long talk about weight. I just came out and told her, that as determined as I am I don't see myself staying on program and just losing ONE STINKING POUND A WEEK. And she just looked at me and said,

That's is exactly how I want you to do it!. WHAT!!!!

She told me that if I didn't I would wind up and just gain it all back like I have done 50 Billion times in the past. We also talked about the dreaded E word "Exercise". She told me instead of looking at all the clothes that I have, that really hasn't worked in the past now has it?? To pretend I'm in training for something.

Then she asked me a question, What is it that I absolutely LOVE to do, but I can't now because of my weight and exercise?"

I had to think.....then a lightbulb went off. AH HA!!! I'm moving to Texas and I won't be able to ride the horses at the farm!!! Yes you can ride overweight You may say. BUT.....you can't really. I don't have the strength in my arms to hold the reins if I'm riding the "trouble maker" and I sure can't stretch my foot up to the Stirrup to climb on. I would limp for days after. Before I could ride for hours before I actually felt it.

So now I'm in "training!" A whole lot of leg and arm exercises and tightening the "core" muscles.

So I learned a lot today! How are all of you ladies today??? I'm in the process of going through the paperwork that was left on my desk this morning.

My Menu:

WW Chocolate Muffin= 3 points

Lean Cuisine Parmesean crusted fish with vegis = 6

SnackSpecial K Snack Bites = 2

Dinner= Shrimp I think with fresh green beans

monet0329 · 07-21-2008, 01:06 PM

hellooooooooooooooo...

wow.. great day at the docs..

.. and she is right ya know.. we all want to loose this extra weight in record time and it can be frustrating when we don't.. but losing it slow is the best way... that's why I have decided to add in lc sweets to my menu.. because if I don't.. I will fail.. so.. slow and steady wins the race

and I think its great that your goal is to ride the horses.. my aunt used to have an horse farm.. when I was little... buttercup was my fav horse hehee..

it's amazing the things you can't do.. or are hard to do when your over weight..

..

hello everyone else.. have a great day..

my Internet was down all morning.. do to the storm last night.. ugh..

heidi21062 · 07-21-2008, 01:13 PM

Hey ladies!!!!

Just checking in......I have had a crazy

day today!

losin4good1980 · 07-21-2008, 01:46 PM

Kimmer sounds like you had a very enlightening day - I'm glad you opened up and I'm also glad that your Dr isn't a complete horses ass like mine is....... and she's totally right - you too Monet

My day has been okay so far...... but I don't have time to write right now - I'm going to stay the night at my mom's tonight with the kiddos....... I'll write tomorrow night - catch up with yas then!!

xoxo
