Good Morning Girls:)

How is everyone today? And how is the weather where you are? Its snowing a littl ehere today but it is actually kind of nice.I am hoping for a nice winter this year.I don't really like the snow.

And what is everyones plans today? I asked DH if he needed me to work at the store today and he said he would let me know but he didn't.So guess what? This boat is getting ready to sail! }( I went to work with him last night for a bit and I have my eye on a couple of things up there.Theres a really nice pair of nike pants and they are extra small but I like my workout pants a little tight so I think they will fit just fine:) So if they don't sell in the next month or so I may buy them for myself.There are a couple of nice workout tops to but I like those in small b/c I don't like my boobies to be going all over the place when I am running.But I will try them on eventually as well.There aren't alot of women who will pay $50 for a workout top, I rarely did it before.And the ones that would buy them in this town (that I know of) are not a size small...more for me!:) :)
I think I am going to do kickboxing today and PLB but once I get in there I may change my mind.I won't be running b/c I did 7 miles yesterday and I think my knees would start acting up again.And abs of course.
Other then this, I need to finish my cleaning today and then I am back to work tomorrow.This is my long weekend off though.I get off Thursday evening and I am not back until Mon night!:7

Good Morning Lori.

Enjoy your day off and your work out.

No weather here to speak of...quite lovely out as a matter of fact. I took Joey for a walk yesterday afternoon because it was so mild out. It's supposed to be the same today!

I have to go to a wake tonight and a funeral tomorrow. :-( DH's grandmother passed away the other night. Him and his family weren't very close to her. (There were issues there from years ago.) It's still a sad time for them but not what it potentially could have been. It was much more painful when his Aunt died a couple months back...So anywho...I probably won't be around much tomorrow...Hmmmm...now that I think of it, I wonder when I'll get my work out in? Maybe I'll just get up early and do it before we leave for the funeral tomorrow.

Your DH doesn't give you a discount on the stuff you want from the store!? :eek: :eek: :eek: I'd DEMAND to pay COST!:p

Today I'll be doing an hour of Cathe cardio, walking lunges and abs. Tomorrow is the last of the SS work outs and the following day I start a new and re-organized round.:)

Hey, I lost another pound!!!WOOT WOOT!:+

Hope everyone has a great day!
 
Congrats on your weightloss! Feels good, doesn't it?:) Your not far from your goal now!

Sorry to hear of your loss.Seems to be alot of this lately.

Oh yes,I get stuff for discount but I don't want to take it if he as a chance of selling it and making a profit on it.Thats why I said I would wait and see if it sold first.If is still there in a few weeks I will put in on account:) I have my own account that I will pay off.I already have about $200 on there so I need to pay that off before I get anything else.To bad I didn't treat my CC the same way!

Lori:)
 
Oh, Okay...your DH is forgiven then!:+

Well, I'm eating a small bowl of cereal and then I have to get started...want to get atleast the cardio done this morning so that I have less to do when DS goes down for a nap.
 
yeah, my coffee as disappeared so I am going to get started to and eat later.My coffee always fills me up.
Lori:)
 
Hello Girls!

Wow Lori - what restraint you have on buying those workout clothes! I know, in the long run it's more money in your pocket if DH sells at full price. And I do not know anyone who wears an extra small in workout pants, so I'm going to have to rethink whether or not I'm speaking to you anymore. Hehehe. Wow - you're SMALL! So why would you pay more for workout clothes now than you would before? I see so many cute workout clothes now that I want and I think I might be willing to pay more. I buy most stuff at Target.

Wendy - congratulations on your weight loss. You work SO HARD and you deserve it. You're almost to your goal!!!

I have a big all-campus meeting to attend in just a bit (welcoming back everyone for spring). They have coffee, so I'm having some already (since the meeting is across the hall and the coffee is already there). I don't usually drink coffee, but what fun! They are also having food, but I won't eat it. They'll probably have a bunch of fruit, muffins, etc. - all carbs. So I had my cottage cheese and yogurt and once the meeting gets underway I'll have my Myoplex Lite shake - chocolate truffle. Mmmmmm. They are also having a potato bar and salad bar at lunch, so depending on the salad bar, I might do that, but in case it's a carb bar, I brought my own to be safe. Tonight we are taking our car to the Volvo doctor for the maintenance things it needed (which we knew about) and it's in Laramie which is about 45 minutes from here. They have a fabulous sub shop right across the street from the university, so we're going there. I'll have ww bread and will do all healthy. :)

Okay, enough rambling. I can't believe Lori thinks I talk a lot! Ha! Where on EARTH do you get that idea????? :)

Hi Susan.

You certainly have complete control of your diet, huh? Good for you, girl! I am not that good!}( Thanks for the kudos on the lost pound...let's hope I don't find it again!;)

Hey Lori.

I am with Susan on possibly not talking to you anymore because you have the nerve to wear an EXTRA small! :p That really SHOULD be illegal! ;)

Actually, my SIL wears an EXTRA-small in almost EVERYTHING and wears a size 0 or 1 in pants...UGH! I still talk to HER though so I guess I can continue speaking to you as well...consider yourself lucky!;) :p :7 :7 :7
 
Hey, guys! I just wanted to jump in and say that I will be posting again soon. I didn't know what routine to do until last night. I haven't been working out because I have been so busy with the kids being home. Now that I can work out, I am sick! x( I have a throat thing, but it isn't that bad. I am going to do a lite workout today to give my immune system a boost.

Susan, hello! Glad to meet you! And I am very happy to see a new face around here, I am getting sick of Lori and Wendy! :p Anyways, I have three kids, an alright husband :)P), no pets (thought I would LOVE a dog) and a partridge in a pear tree. :D I am sure you will get to know more of me than you really want to know. :) Welcome!

Missy
 
Aww, Wendy, c'mon now! You know that I am your favorite person! :p

I am sorry to read about DHs grandma. Even if you aren't close it is still hard. Sometimes it can even be harder if you aren't close or had a falling out. How is DHs parents doing?

Missy

ETA check out the new pictures! :)
 
Hey Wendy - I only have complete control over my diet 6 days a week! But on that 7th day, look out! It's only because I do Body for Life. If I didn't, I would have no control. I'm not like you where I can just make good choices. I can do pretty well during the day at work, but I'm not so good at night. So I just have to have a plan and stick to it and it can't just be "to eat healthy" because it will never happen. I would eat mostly healthy, but not enough to be in good shape.

Hi Missy - it's so nice to meet you. I love your pictures. Your kids are adorable. We couldn't have kids, so we have 2 dogs and 4 parrots. They say parrots have the intellectual level of a 5 year old child and the emotional level of a 2 year old. So I guess I will have 4 two year olds forever! :)

I look forward to getting to know you better. I mean, Lori and Wendy are nice and everything, but...

JUST KIDDING you two!!!!

Hey, I wonder when Charlotte will be back? I hope she's going okay. And Wendy, I'm sorry about your husband's grandmother. I think it's hard no matter what the relationship.

SO no one is talking to me anymore?:-( Well I will just post this for myself then:)

I am not that small.I think I am an average size but I don't like baggy workout clothes.These pants don't look very small though and with that being said, you know what it is like sometimes...you think you will fit into something and you can't get it over one leg! hahah I usually buy all my workout clothes in a small b/c I like in snug, especially the tops.AS for every day clothes, small is shirts most times and the normal size in pants.I think I am wearing lets see...no one shoot...28's today.There is...Im just average,plain jane:)
Susan- I wouldn't pay $50 for a top before.Not something that I was just going to sweat in in my basement.Now if I were going to a gym, I would probably have 2-3 outfits, but its just me and the dogs, so they don't care what I am wearing :) I have bought most of my stuff on sale and if anything was bought full price...someone bought it as a gift:) And watch Missy...she is not to be trusted either! Wendy is the only honest person here! hahaha

Anyway..I should go do something.Seems like I have been on the computer for a while.
Lori:)
 
Yeah, sure, you're just average. WHATEVER! :) I don't like baggy workout clothes either, but an extra small? Hmmm...that SURE wouldn't be baggy on me!

I used to work at the botanic gardens here and we had a sweet gal, about 40, who had Down's Syndrome and she volunteered there. Since her and I were the only girls, she hung out with me a lot and always went on errands with me. Anyway, she thought that the people in the TV could see her and she always called them "my people". So whenever I think I need new workout clothes, I tell my DH that my people are so tired of seeing me in the same clothes every day and would like to see something new!

I'm starving today for some reason. How are you doing with BFL today Lori? I've already had my 4th meal (BFL Chocolate Mint Cookie bar) and it's only 3pm. I will probably eat dinner around 6pm or so and I hope I can wait!!! Maybe I should add a few almonds to that last meal, which I just finished.

Missy - don't listen to Lori. She's delusional because she's part vampiress because of her hours. :) Right Wendy?

Anyway, she
>thought that the people in the TV could see her and she always
>called them "my people".

That is so sweet! The only nice workout clothes I have were bought for me by someone else. I am so bad and people probably think I am a slob, but I really don't care how I look when I work out. I am just going to get all nasty and sweaty anyways so as long as I can be comfortable it is ALL GOOD. I do have the cutest running shorts, though, compliments of Mom! I have a bright pink running outfit, red, and blue (my signature color.) I actually am particular about my running gear so that I don't get chaffing and so that I will stay warm when it is cold. That was too much, I think... moving on...

I don't know how you guys can do the BFL. I was starving the whole time - the TWO WEEKS - I did it. I lost weight, but I was famished and felt weak and irritable from it. ME NEED FOOD! ME NEED LOTS OF FOOD! I just make sure that I get a balance of everything that is good. And chocolate. There must be a lot of chocolate. :9

I already know Lori is crazy. That was established the first time I ever read her posts! :p

Missy
 
Usually I'm not hungry on BFL, but for some reason today I'm famished! I think that they say if you're still full in three hours you ate too much and if you're hungry too soon you ate too little. But that does kind of go against the portion size thing. I think if you do more aerobic activity like we all do, you do tend to get hungrier and need more food, wouldn't you say?

I hear ya on the chocolate. I love chocolate too. I have a huge sweet tooth!

So Lori - where are you and why aren't you defending yourself today? :)

You guys are only talking about me b/c I CAN"T defend myself and whoop your A$$'S!:p :p :p :p :p

I am just average...like a rose, or a hummer...those are just average things,aren't they?

I am doing good today but I did have veggie pizza for dinner which is not on BFL but I didn't want to cook and it wasn't that made, right? I am a little hungry but not to bad.I will model for you in about 4 weeks when I get my butt into those pants!
Missy- if your nice I could convince DH to send you some clothes!:) But your not so I won't. How are the chocolate chips going down today? Or are there any in the house! hahaha:)

Well, I have to leave you bullies to pick on each other cause I have some hair to cut and then I have to run to wal-mart to get dog food and garbage bags (to put you two in:7 ) If your lucky I may talk to you later!
Lori:)
