Kim - So how'd the horse stuff go this weekend? Do you have a new member of your family?
I've never gone looking for mushrooms, it sounds like fun!
institches - It's definitely worth switching to core if you think it will help you. Almost every time I hear people saying they've switched, they lose weight in their first week. You're always welcome here though, no matter what you decide to do! Keep us posted!
ifindhope - THERE you are. I was wondering about you, missy. Glad to see you again!
Xonnel - welcome! I'm in the same boat as you, was on WW before, lost weight, gained it al back (and then some). Congrats on your success with Medifast. I've vaguely heard of P90x, good luck with your killer bod development
Chey - what the heck is FAT FRIDAY??? That sounds terrible! I bet if you brought a veggie platter this Friday you'd find you're not the only one to be grateful for it. I think we overestimate each other's desires for junk food sometimes. :/
vday - I said it in the WI thread but I'll say it again, I am SO HAPPY FOR YOU. I know you really worked your butt off this week to get those pounds off and it totally happened for you. Congrats, you definitely deserved it!
So are you going to continue doing the same no sugar/no FPs thing, or are you going to add in a few FPs this week?
sonja - volunteering, eh? what sort of projects were you working on? and I'm right there with ya on the bad eating this weekend.... But I don't have rain to blame, or being homebound with a sick roommate....
heather - I think boys might just do that sometimes. Give him a little time
I hope you get your weird pain stuff sorted out.
modkitten - HURRAY for disney! When are you going?
shannon - happy birthday to your grandfather
Take a deep breath, slow down, you'll be okay!
free - aw, girl nights are so fun. good for you stopping when you were full though. I definitely didn't when I was in that situation yesterday
Faerie - Aw, I'm so happy you found a wedding dress. It sounds gorgeous. As does your headpiece. Are you wearing a veil? And woohoo on the sizing, you know dress sizes tend to run small so that's especially encouraging! My wedding dress was a 20 but I wear a 14 in pants. Go figure :/
As for me, we had the most gorgeous weather ever. It was so nice being out in the country on a nice sunny, breezy day. My downfall was that my friend with the terrible eating habits and tendency to shove junk towards me came with us... It was just going to be me and DH but I invited her at the last minute because she was getting kind of depressed and stir-crazy here... I don't know why I did really but I did. Anyway, she came with like 6 bags of chips, a pie, ice cream, and lots of beer. I'm not blaming anything on her specifically because I know I made the choice to consume a bunch of stuff alongside her, but these things wouldn't have made it up there with us if she hadn't come. Anyway, not placing blame, just acknowledging that it was a TERRIBLE weekend food-wise. I know I ate at least my weekly 35 already. :/
On the plus side, I've been doing some good exercising. I biked home from work Friday (which I am very proud of myself for doing), DH and I went for a long ride on Saturday, I went for a jog Sunday morning, then did some upper body stuff with free weights while watching TV in the evening. I have to say, I feel I'm getting way better at jogging than I used to. My legs get tired before I get desperately out of breath, so I guess my cardio health is improving! I brought my bike to work again today so another bike ride is in my future.... It's just so hard to resist being outside and active when the weather's so nice!
Okay, enough out of me. I have a project due Wednesday at work and I am SO behind it's not even funny. Have a good day everyone.
