BethFromVA 5 Posted January 5, 2009 so how did the workout go? Challenging but I got through it all. Felt good to do something productive for a change. And I really enjoy him. I know he's as femme as they come, but he's so cute and energetic and seems to really care. Then I realized some other work-out DVDs that I loved and which never made it to VA either. :wink_smile: And now I'm trying to get what it was I used to have. I doubt they will be there that long... True... guess I was thinking more about the ellipticals and treadmills that people got for Christmas that are up for sale by March. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BethFromVA 5 Posted January 5, 2009 I guess this would qualify as an NSV: Boss asked me today if I had lost more weight. It's nice that somebody noticed. :wink_smile: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

smsmithart 4 Posted January 5, 2009 I got a little carried away with my starvation diet today ...now I feel all sicky and weak... I had 1 boiled egg today and some carrot sticks...note to self eat a little more... I'm trying to give up the cheetos and fruitroll ups. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Leslie2Lose Posted January 5, 2009 PJTP...Mental note to self - I'm not 12...ditch the hotpink sparkly nail polish from NYE. Why I don't even remember applying it myself...WTH? Second note to self - don't drink so damned much and we won't have these fashion issues... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LilMissDiva Irene 3,282 Posted January 5, 2009 I got a little carried away with my starvation diet today ...now I feel all sicky and weak...I had 1 boiled egg today and some carrot sticks...note to self eat a little more... I'm trying to give up the cheetos and fruitroll ups. Girl... that is no easy task. I have a NYR for 2009... and that is to never eat chips of any kind, no pastries and NO more candies or ice cream (except skinny cow or Smart Ones). That's alot to give up all at once, but it's hurtful to me right for my psyche... however, since then (five days) I've lost a good 9 Lbs. I cannot eat these. They are so bad for me, are a trigger food and just plain make me feel sick when I eat them. If I can give up Pop forever, I can give up these things too. I don't even think about Pop anymore. But yes, do eat! Just eat healthy. Your band is there so you don't have to starve yourself, and of course you know that. :wink_smile: Just sayin'... BTDT.

Guest Leslie2Lose Posted January 5, 2009 sms - it's not summer (at least in this hemisphere) and the glitter will be stuck for days - lol...it's not coming off...I swore it was red when I applied it (well when whomever applied it)...Fun...yep that's what I'll call it. :-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Good for you...No cheetos or doritos...I can do it too! Those have added 12 pounds to me in the past couple of months...those are my trigger and bad foods too. Okay they are just plain EVIL.

It was 85 on saturday, 75 yesterday....freezing rain today , gotta luv a dallas winter . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LilMissDiva Irene 3,282 Posted January 5, 2009 If I give up completely .... Whew, not a pretty scene. I know it. TOM is really bad for cravings for me. I can only imagine... I'm gonna be bitch of the Earth come that time. I just gotta be strong, and God help anyone who even says the word Chip during that time... :wink_smile: I am allowing myself things like Chex Mix, Reduced Fat Cheez*Its and pretzels. So, I can still satisfy that salty craving - and my sweet tooth with anything SF or Reduced Fat and Sugar. GL to me. :thumbup: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tapshoes 2 Posted January 5, 2009 note to self - don't drink so damned much and we won't have these fashion issues... Giggle giggle.... Girl... that is no easy task.

Your band is there so you don't have to starve yourself, and of course you know that. . Never? That word is not in my vocabulary! Of course I am jealous of you that can do that, but alas, it is not I. I'm all for the hot pink nail polish...I have it in neon pink and orange ...orange is for my toes looks great in the summer and its fun.... With my skin, orange anything looks positively ghastly. I'm way down south its 82 here today...its always summer Sure, rub it in! It was 85 on saturday, 75 yesterday....freezing rain today , gotta luv a dallas winter . Trade ya - forecasting 3 more days of snow this week with only 'scant' accumulations (2-5" per day). TOM is really bad for cravings for me. I can only imagine... I'm gonna be bitch of the Earth come that time. I just gotta be strong, and God help anyone who even says the word Chip during that time... :wink_smile: Let us know when that is; would hate to accidently say the word...even in another context like 'poker chip', 'chip off the old block', chipping ice off the windshield...

Gracey 7 Posted January 5, 2009 I'm home with a major headache. It was definitely worse this morning and right now, I'm just chillin' watching Oprah about her weight. She thought she had her weight under control at 50 but then had the thyroid diagnosis. As someone having been diagnosed with thyroid disease 16 years ago, I wanna scream, "Yeah, welcome to the club, sister!" PS - I got down some cheddar cheese today - yippee!
