COOL! Although I would probably be too scared to go on the trapeze.Quote:

I don't plan on eating them myself, I think my future buddies might be getting some! The chocolate seashells are another story though, I ate half a box last night :yikes:Quote:

10 years ago I lost over 100 lbs, and over the last 10 years have gained it back plus more. Now there are 'excuses' to some of the gain - hysterectomy, fibromyalgia, stress and emotional eating.... :shock:
Sooooo, I think I am going to do WW online....
And I am going to tell you all that I am doing it. I need accountability. I need to check in. If I am PAYING for it, I will stick with it.
But not 'in real life' yet.
Does this make sense?
OK, vent/confession over with.
I crushed a bag of aero bubbles last night. Sad. But I'd been rocking an overtired baby for 3 hours by then. Daddy doesn't understand the concept of solid daytime naps preventing over tiredness and helping better night time sleeps. Grrrr! He also has a wicked cough that kept waking her up and wouldnt take cough syrup because he'd taken nyquil. If this shizz keeps up tonight, I'm going to have to 'ask' him to sleep in the spare room :(Quote:

Its been quite the morning here. Got a phone call at 8 am this morning that hubby's grandfather passed away. We knew it was coming one of these days as he's been really sick for the last 6 months or so. So we knew it was coming.
I should be around for the next couple days as they are thinking funeral will be Thursday or so. So i will then be out of town and away from the computer for a couple of days. Just thought I would say something in case anyone is wanting to get a hold of me.
That IS funny!Quote:

Awesome! (and just shoot me a pm if you were wanting my addy ;) )Quote:

I am turning my WW's experience into a challange to find and make really yummy recipies that fit into my food preferences. I am notorious for not eating all day and gorging myself silly at night. This plan is slowly coaxing me into eating numerous times a day with more portin control. Instead of having chocolate bars and S&V chips while watching tv in the evening I am now having Asto zero (some really yummy flavors), special k fruit crisps or Smart Popcorn. Seems to fill the want for sweet and saltly and much healthier.
I wish you the very best on your journey bluz :-)[
On another note CP has not changed the status of my buddies package and Jan 4th has come and gone and it continues to say in transit. I am praying that they have not lost or damaged it. I have insurance but that wouldn't replace the fact that I (Miss Non Crafty) actualy made a few items in there with my own hands. I am still holding out hope that tomorrow it will be delivered in one pc.
I hope everyone is having a fantastic Sunday :rose:

But I just don't like the points and some of the stuff behind it. The thing is I know what I need to do, it's actually doing it that's the hard part.
I find I have habits, like the meals we have for dinner, the coffee I get at work in the morning, little things that if I could change would be a big impact. I have switched from a large to a small double double, but donuts are on sale ;) For myself, I can eat a burger and fries and lose weight, eat two slices of pizza and it comes back on and then some. Too much fruit makes me get bloated and have a sore tummy, salads can be a bad idea, but cooked veggies are fine. I have a HUGE collection of workout videos, ranging from 10 minute workouts to over an hour, yoga, pilates, weights, circuit training, cardio, HIIT, you name it, I've got it. And when I do it, I feel better. So why don't I do it? I'm lazy I guess! Actually if you read Wheat Belly you will see some other reasons. Even that, I know I shouldn't eat wheat/grains, but I do. Because they are in so much and everywhere, and easy! I'm rambling again :)
All to say, knowing what to do, even committing to doing it, is really only a small step. The hard thing is keeping at it. So take it one day at a time, one hour at a time if that's what you need to do. And use the facebook group Pam set up :) No judging! Post something, if you need help, if you did well, if you want to brag or confess. And if you don't want to tell people at home or work or wherever, don't!

Fruit also bloats me. I recently discover that real fruit juice (like store bought & homemade smoothies) give me a really bad sore throat that last over 24 hrs (I'm not impressed)

So sorry for your loss scbpooh - hugs to you all. Even though you know something is coming it is still a shock when it happens. My grandpa passed away 3 years ago and it was still a shocker. You just think that they will be around forever. :sweet:
I am glad I am not the only one feeling the weight loss nag. It's the committing to it that is the hardest and since $65 was just taken out of my bank account I guess I am on my way! One of the best things I have done financially lately is cut up my real Visa and replace it with a Virtual Visa Debit Card. I can use it online and over the phone but it debits our bank account not rack up an 'unseen' bill. Total accountability there. We did not spend one cent on credit this Christmas - and it feels good! :-)
