140/130 club

Anyone in this grouping looking to drop from 140 to 130's.  We can all use support.  Today I am focusing on all the food groups.  Exercise would be good, but I won't be able to since I am working from 9 to 10:30.  A Super long day.  I hope I can stay focused, when I pass the fast food chaines on my travels today.

Karey~ back into the groove, you can do it.

Sherry~ woman, get your butt moving and make it through your week.

Joan~ hope the interview went well.  It would be a huge relief for you and you deserve to get a consistant paycheck.

As for me, the last 2 weeks have thrown me for a loop.  Haven't run as much as I should, but I'm not going to get to worried about it yet.  I have a feeling next week I'll get back into the swing of things.  I got my hair done for this weekend yesterday.  I have a purple and teal streak in it.  It looks pretty cool.  Can't find my camera otherwise I would take a pic and post it.  This weekend is going to be an eating/drinking free-for-all, it's ValleyCon.  It's a sci-fi convention, the whole family is going this year.  On Friday night we are all dressing up as Red Neck Zombies, it is going to be SOOOOOO MUCH FUN!!!!  The kids are all excited about going and being able to dress up, it's going to be a blast.

Hello All

Well I didn't get the job but it's ok, I found out why....I don't know the SAP program.  Was gonna register to take the courses on line but I ended up spending all my money on new flooring for my fathers laundry room, kitchen stairs, and kitchen.  He finally agreed to remove the carpet that's been down since 1972!  I felt like I had to pay for it since it's rather pricey and it was my idea to go with laminated wood instead of cheaper vinyl..

Food wise I'm still horrid..but today I did bring 2/3 of a pkg of Keebler chocolate cookies to work and gave them all to Guy...he's a bean pole.

Haven't been to the gym in weeks...gotta get back to that....I won't go near the scale but perhaps I should....maybe the shock would do me good..

Cassie:  I can't believe you haven't been running much...but then I bet you've done more than you think.  That party sounds fantastic.  I love Halloween!

Karey...welcome back...now get back on track...I'm trying but I find I'm Oh So Trying!

Sherry:  come on now that race isn't going to run itself!

I'm at work and have absolutely nothing to do...reminds me of my NC job! 

We had 5 inches of snow Tues-Wed...man it's cold here!  LOL and the warm coats I did have don't fit!  I'm really made a mess of things...no one to blame but me.   :(

Cassie~  Your hair sounds cool... too bad you can't find your camera.  Sounds like you guys are going to have a wonderful time dressing up!  :)  Have fun!

Joan~  Sorry to hear about the job. Something better is bound to come along soon, hang in there.  It sounds like it was a good idea that you gave those cookies away, less temptation for you.  Gotta get that butt back into the gym and clean up that eating.  You can do it!  :)

My eating has been good, especially today.  Had some Fiber One cereal for breakfast with skim milk, a protien bar for a snack, some baby carrots, and an apple and a protien shake for lunch.  As for dinner, maybe some chicken strips (recipe from my Hungry Girl book), or  Subway.  Trying to get back into the exercise groove... ran this morning, yay!  Went about 4 miles with the incline on and alternated between walking fast and running.  Feel pretty good after that.  =D

I did it!!!!!!! I did the half marathon!!! My time was 2 hours and 38 minutes, yep I'm happy with that I was wanting just 2 1/2 hours but hey I'm not complaining at all.  Cassy thank you for all of your help!!!

 

Yay Sherry!!!!

CONGRATULATIONS Sherry!!!  =) 

WTG!  You should be very proud of yourself.

Thanks everyone, I have to say I'm sore today that's fro sure, a good sore, I stretched what I thought was good yesterday but I guess my body just has to get used to it, I will prbably still be sore tomorrow, I feel like I have a stone bruise on the bottom of my left foot on the side of my heel, not sure what that's about maybe stretched something too much. 

I have been lazy today, we had friend scome over and we grilled burgers.

Hope everyone has a great night.

Where is everyone? I'm just trying to keep my eating in line this week, my left foot is still bothering me so i haven't been doing any exercising, I feel like it's over extended or something. So just relaxing to try to be able to get back into the swing of things this weekend.

Trying to figure out what I'm going to do with it getting dark so early now......

Hope everyone is having a good day.

 

I'm here.  Not much new going on... very tired today.  Stayed up too late last night to watch all of the election coverage, but it was worth it.  =)  Didn't exercise yesterday because I was busy cleaning the house instead, but I think I burned a lot of calories doing that.  Really hungry and tired today... hoping I can force myself to exercise some later.

Sherry~  Hope your foot feels better soon.  If it goes on much longer, maybe you want to have a doctor look at it.

Now I feel really fat (and guilty)... just got back from pigging out on pizza at Cici's, the all you can eat pizza buffet.  LOL  Uggh.

But it was sooo good.  Going to be making up for it tomorrow.

Been in a funk all week...I think it's the time change but starting to feel normal, got on the scales, well deserved what it said 146, so got to get that back down.

I think I have a plan of sorts worked out......we'll see. I just want to keep walking involved.

Hope everyone is having a great weekend.  We will be going to my aunts in a little while, first day of gun hunt I think for deer season so my  brother and all his friends gather and we cook out!! He grills dove....has for the last few years, will be a fun day.

Helloooooooo.......eecccchhhooooooooo

My it looks like most of us have been MIA...I'm tired and kinda grujmpy...so what else is new...weight down 12 lb from last week...now i just have to re-lose this other 20!

Hoping to get to the gym tonight and actually lift...only did the elliptical and cardio trainer last week..

It's getting too cold for me to want to go out at night...I'm still working with southern blood...

Hope you all are well and hope to see you all posting again soon. :)

Hi. I have been MIA. It is great that everyone posting here has been so successful. I have unfortunately had a bad year full of loss and sadness (but on the other hand full of long hours and lots of work) and now I am at the highest weight of my life. :( Not good. I am embarrassed to report the number and my lack of effort. Again, congrats to all of you for not doing what I've done this year....

Sherry~ Hope you're getting out of your "funk" by now.  I think I am currently in one.

Joan~ I've been lurking around, but not much action going on in here lately, lol.  Glad to hear you got back to the gym, good for you! 

I made the mistake of weighing myself this morning when I already had a hunch it wouldn't be good... 139.2.  YIKES!  It ruined my whole day since I didn't expect to see that spike.  I know I deserve it because I've been allowing myself to have too many treats lately.  Also, yesterday I was really bad and I'm so mad at myself for it.... I made brownies w/diet soda (found a tip online - doesn't add any extra calories) on Sunday night and ate a couple when they were fresh.  Then, yesterday when I got home from work I was really tired and cranky and I had two small brownies, which eventually turned into most of the remaining brownies with a few going into the trash so I wouldn't eat anymore.  So disappointed in myself.  Just can't seem to control myself and can't even keep that stuff in the house or I'll eat it all.  What a pig. 

Keeping my calories on the low side today to try and get my weight down a couple pounds again.  Gonna try and do some weight lifting tonight and maybe a quick run tomorrow morning before I go to the doctor for my physical.  Hope you guys are doing better than me at the moment.  =)

Well I havne't been doing great but I'm still going to post!!!  Gotta to tell it even when I'm being bad, I'm starting to feel better, Karey, like you I just don't need it in the house or I eat it....no self control here lately.

Still trying to get exercise worked out with the time change.

Went shopping today, got Summer's big gift, we were going to let it be a "santa" gift but have decided to some of the smaller stuff from santa, he sure gets alot of credit!!LOL! so we decided the big gift was going to be from mom and dad this year, we got her a new trampoline, got myself a couple of new shirts which I needed so bad and not much else, just really looked around and just had a good visiting with my cousin.

Hope we all get out of our funks soon and back in control, we have come to far to go backwards!!!

Hi all!  I'm doing much better today... my weight is down to 137.4 today.  I'll take it.  Must have been retaining water from too much salt or something.  I went to the doctor for my annual physical today and their scale said I was 139 with clothes on and a full bladder at the time, lol.  Not bad.  I have to go have lab work done tomorrow morning... they want to get to the bottom of the reason for me not having a period in awhile.  Going to check my hormone levels and some other stuff.  She briefly mentioned a person having ovarian cancer and then that ovarian cysts were a possibility, so hopefully it isn't a big deal.  Just want to get to the bottom of it.  I'm wondering if it's weight related?  I was extremely irregular in my late teens/early twenties before I went on B.C., but when I was on it, I was regular.  Been off for a little over a year and now because my body can't seem to balance the hormones - I get crazy moody.

Sherry~  Sounds like you're getting your x-mas shopping all taken care of... I have a lot of mine done, but a few more to go.  I have no idea what to get my in-laws???  They're always the hardest to buy for.  I think it's only fair that you and your husband get the credit for the big gifts... you deserve the credit, smiles, and hugs.  I'm glad to hear I'm not the only one lacking the self control when it comes to sweets in the house.  =)

It's awfully quiet around here, where are we all at?

Trying to make adjustment to exercise, really got to get back focused, the time change has really gotten me messed all up....hope to find a happy medium soon.

Hope all are having a good weekend.

I'm here!  I'm on track right now too, yay!  =)  C'mon girls, we can do this!  Get your butts in gear!  The holidays are coming up and things are only going to get harder, so better get things straightened out now.  ;)

Not much going on around here...
