Good Morning:)

How is everyone?:) Im thinking about counting points this week....should I...or shouldn't I? Im pretty sure Ill be starved but according to the scale I am up 3 lbs today. I know its not fat but could it be water retention from the Indian food last night. I know there was a lot of salt and garlic in it! I didn't drink that much water though. I weighed before we went out and I was 121.6 and today I was 124.4 LOL I have to laugh at it though cause I know its impossible. My scale is also low on batteries so DH is buying me some new ones today.
I wonder how many points I would need per day. If I ate 25 (that includes my activity points) would that be o.k. What do you think? Anyone want to count points faithfully for one full week and then go from there? You know my original goal was 125 and Ive passed that. Now that I was down to 120...I was thinking of trying to get to 115. But when does it ever stop? I don't ever remember being 115 so why would I aim for that now? I can see how losing weight would become a sickness. I think I would like to get to 118 which was my prepreg weight before DD.
Not sure if I will get a workout in today. My MIL usually cooks on Sunday and with yesterdays post, you guys know how hard it might be for me to get out of it!;( If I knew that the weather was going to be crap tomorrow I would go for a run tonight after DS goes to bed, but if the weather is suppose to be nice, maybe I should just not do anything today and do 10 miles tomorrow. I should have the energy for it!

My workouts should be here sometime this week! Can't wait! I was gonna write up a rotation today but I forgot my workouts should soon be here.
Have a good Sunday everyone and I will be around off and on all day!

Good Moring girls!

Todays workout is B&G(as much of it as possible,lol:+)The last time I did it my legs were exhausted by the time I got to the floor work,but I will take a very small break and go for all of it!

So,DH and I went shopping yesterday eveing(instead of going to the wedding,hehe)Got the kids some toys,and I also got a little something!kinda a late b-day gift.Some jeans,a pretty blouse and a brown leather jacket(I really needed a nice jacket,my other jacket were to big so I was wearing a hoodie around,lol)We also got the inlaws x-mas shopping overwith-so all we have left is my parents,yippee(and some more toys for the kids;-))

Lori-What is your mil cooking today? My mil is a great cook to,good ol' southern food,man I wish I could cook like her! I remember one time asking her for the recipe for her cornbread dressing,she gave it too me and when I made it-it didn't taste NOTHING like hers-I called her and she said she didn't know what i could of done wrong!(yea,right) Well,later down the road(about 2yrs later)my DH asked her for the recipe and it wasn't the same one she gave mex( She conveniently left out the MAIN ingredient.She soooo reminds me of the raymonds mom on everybody loves raymond!

Lainie-my left knee crack sometimes without pain and sometimes with pain! My doc said it because I have a bad knee and I need to stregthen the muscles on that leg...I've been trying-that knee still hurts though!

Belinda-Glad your back,What workout do you have planned for today-Im still doing the "shock your body rotation" I love it!Thanks for suggesting it!

Cheryl-How are you today? I hope well:)

Hey to Stacy and Carrie and Cathy(if you pop in today) I've got to get my butt in gear and workout before we pick the kids up around lunch time! bbl
 
Amelia** LOL When I was reading that I was thinking " is she married to Raymond?" It does sound just like her! Thats so weird! hehe When I cook a roast or pork half way through the cooking time I will take it out and cut the meat into slices. This makes the meat really moist. DH thinks I make the best roast and wanted me to tell his mom one time what I did. Part of me wonders if she liked the thoughts of me making a good roast! hehehe!
Sounds like you had a good day of shopping! Im doing some ebay shopping right now, some pretty cute outfits are up for sale!

Lori:)
 
Hi, everyone!

Amelia, very funny about the stuffing recipe. Wow, fun on the cute blouse and leather jacket. Wish we could see it.

Lori, you KNOW the 3 lbs has got to be water. Just drink a lot today to flush out the salt - a nice run - and it'll be GONE before you know it. 118 sounds great. If you were happy there as your pre-pregnancy weight, I wouldn't try to go further below.

Today is the new Boot Camp. Hurray! I'd better get started.

Have a great Sunday, everyone!

Hi everybody!

I can't believe it's almost Thanksgiving already. I need to do some planning. At least I'm only making Thanksgiving dinner for our little family--no visitors.

Later today I hope to try to get decent pictures of the boys for our Christmas cards. I tried a week or two ago and didn't like any of them enough, so I've dressed them up to try again.

Yesterday was my rest day and today I'll be doing upper body & core--maybe PUB or a premix from the 4DS or from BM2.

I did pretty well on eating yesterday until last night when Brian brought some Doritos to the couch and I indulged in some with him. Darn DH! x( I really need to be more careful with the eating since my cardio is limited.

Lori, the first thing I think is "Girlfriend! You do not need to lose any more weight!" But then, I know that if I can ever get as small as you, I might want to lose even more--you're right--it's hard to know when to stop. Do you know where you are on the healthy weight range for you height? I think as long as you stay in that range, it's fine. It should be more about how you feel and where you are comfortable than a number on the scale, but of course we all struggle about numbers, even when the numbers are small.

Amelia, sounds like you're ahead of the game with Christmas shopping! Way to go! I think I might try to order a lot of mine on Amazon to be shipped directly to the recipients, since we aren't going to see much family for Christmas.

Cheryl, have fun with Boot Camp!

Hello to Carrie, Stacey, Belinda, & Cathy!

Laine** Your to funny! hehe! I was just imagining you saying "giiiiiiiirlfreind" and snapping your fingers! LOL I don't know where I am on the charts but Im sure I am in healthy range.I don't have issues or anything, I just think that when we reach a goal we don't even realize how small we are. I wear things that fit me now so I think I am still 130. But when I put on the things that I use to wear when I was 130, I realize how much weight I have lost. Enjoy your workout today!

Cheryl**Yeah, I know I am just being silly. I know I didn't eat 10,000 cals last night:) and gained 3 lbs! The food didn't taste salty though but she said she used lots of salt. You right, I need a nice run!

Im just hanging at work still. Just won a roxy sweater for DD on ebay. I was bidding on some outfits for the baby but I was outbid.I have to get my backside in gear with Christmas gifts. Prehaps I will feel like I have more when they all start arriving from ebay:p
I still haven't eaten much today, in the last 7 hours I have had a Special K bar,1/2 of nutrigrain bar, an apple and 1/2 of a cookie. Everytime I eat something my stomach start to hurt again.
My MIL is making supper ( not sure what) but if this keeps up, I really won't be able to have any!

Hello everyone!
Sounds like you're all having a good Sunday. We are trying to rest a bit here as we had a busy Saturday. I did do intervals 1-4 on LowMax last night, man I love that workout! It is so much fun and challenging for me. Tonight is some strenght training, and I'm thinking I'll do Cathe's Total Body Sculpt workout from the LIS dvd.

Lori, I'm sure the weight fluctuations are probably just water retention like Cheryl said. I always seem to be in a range of 136-139, so my scale is never the same when I weigh in. I actually only weigh in about once a month because I'm really just trying to focus on how my clothes fit, etc. Good luck with your Ebay shopping!! ;) It is so much fun to buy clothes for our little guys, isn't it?

Cheryl, hello and I hope your Boot Camp workout goes great today. I'm curious about those boot camp workouts but still don't own any of Cathe's. Maybe as I get a little more advanced I'll attempt one:)

Amelia, sounds like you are doing great with the Christmas shopping. I just started and have purchased a few things for my sister and DH and also some gifts for my niece. I'll do the bulk of my shopping around the first week of December and will also do part online for my out of town family.

Lainie, I also need to look through my pics and figure out what my Christmas cards will be this year. I might snap a few more pics outside of the kids today. We are going to my SIL's house for Thanksgiving and I only have to bring a sweet potato casserole:) That will be nice.

Well, I hope the rest of the day goes great for you all. We are going to get out and enjoy the mild Fall day and later I need to do some grocery shopping.

I'll check back in tomorrow:)

Hi Girls,

Just reading over yesterdays and today's posts. I got so caught up in my weekend, I didn't even get on the computer yesterday, which is rare.

Yesterdays w/o was chest and back. I now have my pull up bar, and I can do exactly 1 (chair assisted pull up). They are freakin' hard! It reminds me of doing the President's Physical Fitness in school. Todays workout was Plyometrics. Love that. It was 59 minutes and I burned 314 cals. Excellent time.

Lori--sorry your stomach hurts. That is so annoying. Have fun at your MIL tonight. I can't wait to hear your thoughts on the 4DS. Do you celebrate Thanksgiving in Canada too?

Amelia--I was laughing about your MIL post (raymonds mom). Women are so competive with each other. Just our nature, I guess. That is so awesome you got out of the wedding. I despise weddings, which is why I got married in Las Vegas, and did not subject anyone to one. How is your protein shake stuff? I found a great one from GNC.

Lainie--what are you making for Thanksgiving? I am getting my list ready to go to the store today. Beat the crowds.

Cheryl--great workouts as usual! Have a great Sunday.

Belinda--glad you are back!
