Well, hey there ladies. I weighed yesterday morning and saw 173.8. However, I've got the time of the month going on so I hope some of that is due to that. I've been having a better week this week. Went to the gym Mon & Wed and I'm due to go today too. Got a sitter tonight.....so i will be throwing back a few drinks. (though, captain morgan and diet cokes only ring in about 60 cals each) I haven't had a sitter in sooooooooooooooooooooo long! 

Hi. Sorry, I've been M.I.A.  Getting in a depressive mood lately. Not wanting to do anything not even really be online. The scale had nothing new to tell me this week. I'm just the same as last week. I just had to cancel my appointment with the gym this morning as my daughter got sick and had to keep her home from school. (really I think it's just one of those cough-til-u-gag things but I thought I better keep her home just in case.)

I'm a thrift store addict. I always pop in to see if there are any good finds. Today I grabbed 2 shirts for my daughter and it totalled $3.58. You never know what you'll find. I find plenty of good deals in there.

If I get any me time (outside of the gym) I usually spend it online. I like to play games at iwin.com I am addicted to the Wordscape and Jewel Quest games.

Speaking of mii's.....I think I need to go and edit myself! (I made my self more ture-to-life before......by choosing the kinda pudgy body shape. I think I'll go and thin 'mii' up a bit!)

I agree. I had sent everyone emails before. Just a reminder that us mommies were still here and wondering how they were. Maybe we should send out a new round. Or even take them off the update list but have a special list below that says we look forward to their return or something of that nature. I know people get busy and/or get off diets and may  not be interested in checking into CC at that time. So, you never know who's completely quit and whos just taking a leave of absence! :) And, you don't want to be rude, because we all understand and of course they are welcome to return. But, the list is long and cluttered...

I'm about to start Christmas shopping. I usually try to start early. But, last year the kids were changing their minds late in the game and it was upsetting me. I want to get them 1 thing they really want, no matter how much I may feel like it's not worth the money. And then usefull things at reasonable prices. I'm a pretty thrifty shopper.....and ebay addict. (You can get almost ANYTHING cheaper on ebay)

I ran on the tread for 40 minutes today and lifted weights. Lyn, must be nice to be breaking into the 60's. I just stalled out for so long. Now even Nicci is zooming by! :) Good for you Nicci and Lyn (and everyone else putting a dent in their losses) this just means I need to get more focused myself! I'm looking forward to breaking into the 60's too. I'm not sure how long it will be....I did pretty good last week and only saw 1.2 lb loss. That is soooooooooo not motivating. But, I'm ok. I will keep it up this week. I'll never reach the 60's if I don't keep pushing through.

173.2 this morning

Starts this Firday, I know! My kids have been eyeballing that commercial!! I dunno if we'll go or not though. Just because it IS 2 movies and I am not too sure my youngest would dare sit through them! (She did not do well in Coraline) If I can get someone to watch my 3 y/o, I may take the two older ones. I've always thought that was a cute series and am looking forward to seeing the preview for Toy Story 3!

Yesterday I did my Kickboxing session (She cut it a bit short and ended up being 45 min, but it's usually 60: and this includes a killer ab workout at the end) I also walked the tread for 30 (random inclines) and lifted for 15 min.

I don't know what I am going to do today. My husband took my car into the shop. I'll have to find something to do here!

I personally haven't been through that. I've been a stay at home mom all along so the kids were always ready for school. I am really surprised that his Kindergarten teacher didn't teach him to write his name! Having to backtrack and teach a child things he was never thought, no wonder is a bit behind schedule. But I would think if he's having that much trouble it may be a good idea to let him redo K. There's only so much catching up you can do in a little time. Sounds like youve been giving 150% on it. I know it may not sound like a good thing, but at least if you let him redo K, he may not get stressed over it. Kids get too frustrated when they can't 'get it'. You know? (I had to back down out of accelerated English when I was a teen as it was seriously stressing me out and bringing down my grades!) Some kids are more artsy/athletic than others too. I know things will work out if he has you around to help him! :) Just keep doing what you're doing.....and sign that boy up for T-ball!! :)

(What's a 'dh'? I figured out what an 'SO' was) Date nights are sparatic. When we think of it, when we can actually get a sitter....

And when we do we usually have to go to L&B's....the bar where we met. He's addicted to that place. I don't know anyone there anymore so no girls to chat with while he plays pool. I play with him occasionally, if it's not full of guys he'd rather play against. Last time we went out we went to see Final Destination 3D....then to L&B's. (I like to go to movies to see the 3D stuff. We also saw My Bloody Valentine.....dumb movie, but neat 3D action.) I don't know how to play poker.......I really don't want to go with him there anyway.

OMG, just got back from shopping and tried on a Medium velour sweatsuit. It was so cute, and they didn't have any more in Large. So it fit a bit snug, but the good kind of snug. I bought it and figured it could help me keep strong about all this. (Figuring if I wear it just this way I'll get a lot of grief from my husband on it being too tight, ya know) Plus, as is I wouldn't wear it in public, I need to shed a few more before wearing it out of the house! ;)

:( I don't have any money unless he gives it to me. Since I am the stay-at-home mom who does "nothing".......or at least so he says.

I just got off the phone with him and screamed about this 3 night in a row deal. He said I should call the sitter. Maybe I should. BUT he said to call the sitter and....go to play cards w/him? Supposidly no girls there, so if that's true he'll just be giving me the weird look. You know, the your-the-only-girl-here-so-everybody-is-going -to-try-to-hit-on-you look? Instead of the your-the-only-girl-here-and-everybody-knows-y our-mine look. 2 totally different looks! The first one is as if he's looking at the most discusting thing ever.....yet he's looking directly at me.

Yeah! Hi Faith! I was thinking about you just today! I was getting ready to send you an email to make sure you were still out there!! Good to have you back......and WOOHOO for you in the 80's! Yeah!

Look at you go Lyn! Way to get in some posts girl! :)

174.4 today. Not too bad. It sure is nice to be on 'vacation'! Thanks, Lyn!

I've been having a very hard time staying focused these last few weeks. Sure, a day or two here and there.....but it is easily forgotten on a couple days of poor eating. It's not good. Sorry all. I have not been good at staying up with this forum either. If anyone wants to stand in and take turns posting MMM's.....be my guest. :) Mondays have seemed to get a bit too crazy for me. I'll try to get everyone's weigh ins posted later today. I also noticed we haven't had a lot of the original gals weigh in  for a long time. I will start posting * next to those who don't weigh in.

Welcome Diana!  :)
