Can I share now and have it count?? I didnt get the challenge befroe I left to go out of town! and then didnt have omputer access this weekend! I am happy to report that I ate WELL all week!! Even with 3 nights in a hotel! I used this as a reason to eat well, where normally I would use changes in my routine, no acess to make my own food, being stressed out etc as excuses to eat badly. One of my wierd eatinggn habits is eating in the car. I feel like it doesnt count if its in the ar for some reason. Also I eat standing up alot, or in bed... I used to rarely sit down to eat a normal meal, this also translates to the quality of my meal. If its bad food I tend to eat while doign something else, or as a "treat" while lounging. I never used to have a drink while I was eating either, I think going back to the its not a real meal or doesn't count somehow. When I make a good meal I don't pick while Im cooking and I sit and eat slowly and have wter or skim milk with my meal, i don't over eat this way.
MY wiegh in for this week is 273.5, (idk if that counts as up becuase earlier in the week I was 272, but that hadn't been recored yet so techically Im down from my last offical weigh in?) TOM is here so Im bloated. I did eat well and excercised 5 times this week-even went to the hotel gym yay me! Also I bought the book and have to get to reading! 9days to get those points!! |

akasharaine-I am quite jealous, I want to see 500 days soooo badly, but my small crappy town isnt showing it anywhere. I have a huge girl crush on zooey dechanel- actually I want to be her |

So I dont know if this going to count as a new "recipe" but My new fav low cal lunch is tuna fish with mustard and a little old bay seasoning. Its my go to now for quick and low cal, I can have the whole can for 120 cals, and I eat w/o bread...this maybe part laziness so Im not sure how much credit is due (but I never though that I'd be into tuna so much without mayo and cheese, mmm tuna melt!) I've also been doing a substitute for pizza using low cal thin slice wheat bread, low fat mozz cheeze and sliced fresh tomatos and italian spices, put them in the broiler for about 5 minutes-so yummy!! 145 cal each

Hi gilrs!! Sorry yesterday was crazy didnt have time to check in. I did get a few minutes to go back and re-read the challenge stuff again. I guess I need to update. My starting weight for August was 284. I will come back to do the share thing (which I really like by the way) This week I did not meet the challenge :( Sorry team, it was TOM and I had family in town, so there was crappy food all around at the lake, I still did ok and I still lost, but I had some brownies, and chicken wings, and dips and snacky party crap. My weigh in this week in 277 I hit the gym 4 times, walked 2 miles a day out of the gym with the doggy dog and did lots of swimming, plus a 2 hour kayak trip on saturday. pretty successful week overall. my vote for the book would be the tales from the scale. |

good morning ladies! How was everyones weekend? so, I know I joined late, but if I counted last week-I met the water challenge. weigh in 279. I'm up for the no junk challenge, my only question would be the fiber one "pop tarts" do these count as junk food?

morning ladies! I am sore today as well! think it might be a day off from the gym day... I had an hour with my trainer yesterday morning, and then I went to yoga with my mom last night, yoga is so hard-I feel like the most uncoordinated slug, anyone else do any? I know last time I got into the classes, it got beter, but man am Ii feeling it today! I grew up on 1or skim, so to me whole is jsut way too much I will do 2% occasionally, sometimes we used to get it specifically for chocolate milk. But buy skim 99% of the time.

So I figured out a great way to supress hunger....have your new fantastic boyfriend not only bail on plans (big really important to you plans like meeting your friends and family and cancel for events you've already paid for) but then fight with you about it for an hour then concede and apologize and make a happy compromise where everyone gets to win and plans go on...then an hour later break up with you via text message, siting the oldest LAMEST EXCUSES IN THE BOOK!!!! yeah I pretty much have wanted to puke since then, havent been able to sleep or go for more than 20 minutes without crying. The last possible thing I can do is eat right now, even though it would probably make me feel better because then I maybe I actually could puke!! FML why why why why why cant I find a decent person what gives?? I apparetnly have a 30-45 day shelf life I havent dated anyone for more than 2 months in years, nearly ever!! I know I did nothing wrong, really not just in a f-u way either....he just needs to do this for him he needs me time he cant give me what I need, he's broke, he can't take car of himself how can he take caer of me BLAH BLAH BLAH- **** we were'nt getting married, we were dating...I dont care that he lost his job I dotn care abouot $$$ Im not a shallow **** bitch and not only am I hurt and surprised and upset Im **** insulted that he thought that he had to live up to some bogus **** male ego driven nonsense about how guys are supposed to be in relationships. I liked him becuase he was nice, he opend my door he sent me cute texts, he said good night beautiful, and good mornign sunshine everyday, he made me laugh, we shared interests and musical tastes, he was a big freaking adorable dork who didnt try to impress he was jsut himslef, and he knew that, he said he thought the same about me, but apparently he thinks Im an **** who just wants someone to buy her dinner and not really give a **** about what I have to say or think or like! Im a mess Im sorry for ranting!! |

ok, so I've finally assesed the damage, I wieghed in last night @ 291.5...so up about 5 lbs, could be much worse especially after almost a month astray with a vacation, new relationship (lots of bad date dinners etc..) and coming right off a holiday weekend. Also I'm in the due for TOm in the next week and might have a little bloat starting goal for July is to be back in lower 280s, lose the five I gained last month and drop a couple more?? I think its doable, been very well behaved and got back to the gym this morning I feel good about it!! how is everyone else?? akela and muppet-hope youre feeling better |

oh good!! I was getting super anxious about MSN! tipping: hell yeah! I've always tried to share the philosophy with people I know, than when you go home and look to see if you spnt $37 or $40 does it make that big of a difference really? Like even a single dollar can make soeones day, its more than the money too-its weird to show appreciation that way but havign bar tended/waited table for 10+ years it is really a big deal! Im an out of control tipper!! quick update: Im about to drop! I worked 16+ hours yesterday and I cant wait for my weekend!! going to a "pleasure" party tonight and going to see my bff justin :) Chad is coming saturday, first time at my place so thats exciting! Im going to make him dinner and we're going to the drive-in to see transformers, then a golf tournament on sunday!! I need another vacation already!! But yes to answer those who asked...things are going well with the boy, we talked almost everyday while I was on vacay and I saw him sunday night-lol I went to his house before my own. He told me he wants to date me exclusively while I was away, it was a very cute (albeit drunk) conversation, and last night he refered to me as his girlfriend for the first time-lol-made my night! hope everyone is well I need more coffee and have a boat load of work to do! TGIF |

doit! how did I not know thats where you lived???? I go to MD ALOT...my brother lives in Bmore, and I have other friends in silver springs, anapolis, and Missy just moved from nap town over to stevensville on the eastern shore!! We will have to hook up on one of my trips down that way! I still havent weighed myself, I let my brother (not the one in bmore) borrow my scale because he was stayign with my parents (who dotn have one) while he was prepping for boot camp, he left last friday, so now they dotn need it but I just havent gone over there to pick it up! I do feel like some of the steroid bloat is coming down, and I ate really well yesterday and will continue to do so through the week and see where I'm at when I jump back into monday weigh ins. Fingers crossed I have to go pick my car up from the mechanic, then back on the road to go to our other office in wellsville, ny and do inventory for the next couple days-not really looking forward to it, but oh well. hope everyone is having a super day |

Im back! Hello ladies!! Vacation was awesome, followed by wretched followed by even more awesome, then super stressful traveling and exhaustion. I had fun in maryland, it was really good to see my girlfriend her new place is rad, I got spoiled rotten at her new spa, had fun and got drunk at the dock bars, wandered annapolis and went shopping. The drive from MD to SC was pretty rough-95 was a parkign lot 16 hours in the car sucks! I didnt feel good when we got in figured I was tired, not used to AC, by sunday I couldnt breathe/swallow/move-ended up with strep throat and missed half of the SC vacay layed up on the couch. I had to get shots and blew half my $$ on Dr. and drupgs! Also they put e on steriods becuase I was so sick so I got all weirdo shakey steriods bloated and just gross. So I didnt make it out to see Brit, boo :( but Friday and saturday made up for the whoel thing. I have a fab tan too !! I'm working on reading everything, and will try to catch up. I haven't weighed myself yet, but between travel and meds and beign sick and soem bad food but also a few days of barely eatign I think I stayed about even. We will see. I did buy a pair of 20 jeans at gap while I was away they were tight but I think a week of getting back to normal anf they'll be ok, if nto then they can be the new goal jeans!

msn: I like the short hair-and even if your chins softer you have cheek bones and eyes to balance it out, plus short hair usually emphasises those areas, pretty much so long as I've always secretly wanted to be a suicide girl too :) morgie: for really real..you're a babe...I totally sweat your eyebrows!! I have an eyebrown fixation! and (as well as a suicide girl) I've always wanted to be a plus size model, I was actually a chil model for a while...nothing glam really at all my aunt entered a pic fo me and my brother into a contest and we won, but it was a lot of work huge commitment my paretns 86'd that noise....but I agree you could do it :) doit: I really like that bathign suit...NOT GRANDMAish at all...very retro and slimming I dig it!! I'd tell you too, I yell at my mom for doing the actual gma skirty nonsense=unacceptable, they make really cute ones now...you got one!

(said in a understanding soothing non-judgy totally not yelling way) Please go to the gyno! please, if youre worried about a local dr-who you or the fam knows, try the closest planned parenthood-they are fantastic! I go to pp rather than one of the gynos in town for the same reason-I personally know 2 of them, (ones a friends dad-eww) and my mom works at the hospital and knows everyone! granted this doesnt even realyl matter, they are professionals who see every stretch of the imagination everyday its their job to protect your privacy and help you!! I was jsut like you it was my cousin (whose only 6 months older) and is a 4th yr resident (now, then jsut in school) for ob/gyn who really put me at ease about the whole thing. I dotn realyl know your story-are you in school? what about the health center-are there clinics near you, being college aged, there are lots of services for womens health available....but whatever road you choose please please take care of yourself!! please go-there could be things that are hindering your weight loss as well as your period goin on here!!
and sonini-omg "C"?? everythings cool? I worry about that, I have had irregular paps it always scares me, but its actualyl so much more common than you think I know so many girls who've had it or had scares! |

ok its wednesday... I did good yesterday lots of veggies as usual, I had 1/2 peice of pizza (again lunch ordered in everyday this week-but I havent overindulged yet) I did have panera for dinner but even still I had the mediteranian veggie minus the feta and a fruit cup for the side! I am so in love with their cliantro hummus :) delish!! Its 300 a half, and I kept half for lunch, plus 86ing the feta probably brings that down a bit! not ad at all I totally tried the chocopuff cream of wheat this morning, only I dotn have protien powder so I used a little chocolate slim fast-now I have a use for it, in a moment of frugal discrection I bought the powder-not so yummy. but in my c.o.w. it was banging-thanks for the tip!! how is everyone else today?? Im just loving on my orange mango dannon light! p.s. but Im a cheerleader is an awesoem movie...so bad its good! hi shapie!! Im glad your back, any good vacay stories or have I missed them some how?
