DISappearing Peeps...A fastpass to THIN! Part 2

[the Fidge]

Melinda please tell DD that she did wonderful! Wow to get up in front of all those folks, how wonderfully daring and couragous!


SO glad she got to see how the others did too, gives comfort to know she was not the only one! Will pray for her great results for Monday! I think that is just great! You must be so proud!!! A song bird!

The kids I drive in the van beg me NOT to sing! lol I always turn up those really bad songs from the 80s it just kills them!

BOOYAH, Harley! Very brave!!!!!!! I'm too chicken to visit a gym. Maybe in 70 pounds or so . . . I'll just stick to the pool where I know I can do most of the exercises (and my body is hidden under the water most of the time)

Whatever floats your boat sorry couldnt resist...you do what makes you comfy til you are ready to push the envelope...good luck!!

[I want to thank everyone that prayed for our family and our very sick aunt. She passed away Thurs. at 3 p.m. Please continue to remember us. The next two days will be very difficult.

so very sorry for your loss

Okay... long story. During Christmas break DD19 likes to make a donation to the local no-kill animal shelter and this year we had a bleach mishap and I ruined some of my school pants. Tried on some 4X that didn't look good, had to get the 5X OUCH! On the way to checkout, I spotted some with a different band at the top that I like better, so I switched. The 5X I got home with were a little bigger than the other style, so I REALLY should have gotten 4X, but 5X was "okay". Needless to say, those 5X have been retired... was having to fold and pin them in two places to make them fit. All the 4X in my closet are really sagging... the 3X are a bit big... and I've recently bought 2X pants and capris (all in beautiful black of course, so versatile). I've also bought some really cute, bright colorful shirts at Lane Bryant that look fabo with the new pants as I workout. Digging old stuff out of the closet from a 40 lb loss a couple of years ago. Had to buy some DARLING Tommy Hilfiger shoes that tie around the ankle for this long pair of pants that now fit again. Buttoning shirts that I've NEVER worn without them being open with a tank underneath. And I bought some pretty pink panties to go with my pretty pink bras 'cuz all my old panties were sagging comically. So, yes ma'am! I HAVE been treating myself!

And the stall... last time I stalled right before breaking 300 lbs. This time I slowed down right before breaking 40 lbs lost. And when I get to to 279, I will be my lowest weight in (according to my best calculations) 18 years!

DANG - your are rockin and rollin!!! I am so Proud of you!!!


Fidge dont you know that you cant be the mean no fun mom cause I am the mean no fun mom

Today was a good day, had a good workout, went to bday party and had 2 cupcakes tho YIKES...the were yummy and I licked the wrapper shhh dont tell...

One of the posters on the Open Mike thread -- Kay7979 -- had a great idea to surprise UtahMama with when she gets back from her DisneyLand trip. Several of us are going to make tickers that show x days since she rode various rides at DisneyLand - see my signature for an example. Backstage Gal/Marita, an occasional poster here, suggested that I share this little game with you.

If some of us decide to do this, let's try to get a bunch of different rides into our tickers.

Please remember to be mindful of the signature guidelines!

Hi, Stacey! Going May 20 which isn't right around the corner but it will go by so fast. It is already almost March!!!! How did that happen?!

Dont say May 20th is right around the corner..
I turn 40 OMG on the 19th!

 

[dwheatl]

I'm back from Reno and just caught up on reading all the posts.
Fran, I am so sorry for your loss.

We have a friend from England who is the goofiest looking guy in the world but when he talks -makes me weak in the knees

This made me laugh. Is his name Prince Charles, by any chance?

I am skipping weigh-in this week (yesterday). I started the trip eating very healthily, then degraded gradually into today, when we had a free buffet brunch. I could not even tell you all that I ate, but it was good, and I left anything that the first bite wasn't dreamy, and I didn't eat the peanut butter cup chocolate cheesecake because I was full. I'm sure some of you understand that that is breaking new ground for me. Stopping because I'm full?

I tried to exercise everyday. We went dancing. I paid $8 to use the gym one day at the hotel. I swam. And last night at the concert I chair danced until I couldn't hold it in any more, then I got up and boogied.

Melinda, you'll get a kick out of this. I've had a crush on Roger Daltrey since I was 13, and last night was my first chance to see him in person. I was so excited, I could hardly contain myself. I told DH, who is very understanding about this, that I felt like I had to tell Roger that I loved him. He told me to go for it, so towards the end of the concert, when there was a quiet moment between songs, I yelled out, "I love you!" People around us chuckled, and the guy in front of me said, "I know just how you feel!"

Oooh, I know I'm gabby, but one more thing. My tankini that I ordered came Wed. morning just before we left. I tried it on and there was just a little muffin top hanging over, so I wore it with shorts, and now I have even more incentive to get these last 9 lbs. off.

We're going out to lunch tomorrow with DS for my birthday. I anguished over picking something the kids would like, then finally chose something I like and where I can make good choices. I am pledging right now, no french fries!

Have a blessed Sunday everyone.

Ditto what she said

I didn't lose any weight this week. I actually gained a couple of ounces.

I want to thank everyone that prayed for our family and our very sick aunt. She passed away Thurs. at 3 p.m. Please continue to remember us. The next two days will be very difficult]BTW

Congratulations to everyone that lost weight this week. All together over 50 pounds. Wooooooo Hooooty! UtahMama will be so proud. To those that didn't lose (like me) or stayed the same, hang in there we'll make a difference next week.

Good Night Everyone!

I went to see Music and Lyrics tonight with dh. It was so good, I love Hugh Grant!! He could read the grocery adds and I'd be spell bound. Anywho, I was really good, resisted the popcorn dh was devouring and had 2 handfulls of raisinets, they're fruit.... This was a first for me to not eat the popcorn, but I was strong! And I think I'm the official thread killer, I always seem to be the only one around.

It really does help to tell someone doesn't it? I did that last night here with exercise and I exercised! I exercised again tonight so I'm pleased with that success! Didn't eat so great today but not too bad!

Hope everyone has a great day tomorrow... one day at a time!

You can do it, everybody!!

 

[eeyore45]

[lexmelinda]

GOOD MORNING, PEEPS!
First and definitely foremost, I would like to wish a glorious day to our friend dwheatl....

DANIELLE!!!
Roger sent this and said he loves you too....

You must be so proud!!! A song bird!

Thank you, Fidge! I am proud of her. There is not enough money in the world to entice me to sing in front of a crowd. She is always the first one with her hand up to get on stage. She gets it from DH side of the family. His mom was a well known singer with several local jazz bands from the time she was a teen til she got her kids raised. I just sing loudly and off key in my car at every opportunity.

One of the posters on the Open Mike thread -- Kay7979 -- had a great idea to surprise UtahMama with when she gets back from her DisneyLand trip.

Can I have the Tiki Room? When will she be back.....Tuesday?

Don't forget to do some of this or this today.

HAVE A FABULOUS, BLESSED SUNDAY ONE AND ALL!!!

 

[snowwite]

I am having a hard time with exercising. Does anyone know of a shoe or a stretch to prevent plantar fascitis? I got new new balance walking shoes and I walked yesterday. By last eve both heels are red and swollen again. I need to move but I need it to not hurt. Any ideas?

 

[pixie dust 112]

Dont say May 20th is right around the corner..
I turn 40 OMG on the 19th!

40 is ok! It's a good time for a fresh start! You've quit smoking! Now you'll lose the extra weight! It will be a fantabulous decade!

When DD19 started school, she thought the alphabet was SUPPOSED to be sung off-key 'cuz that's the way momma always sang it.

ZZ Top - Sharp Dressed Man, Legs(my fav)

2 things about ZZ Top... I'll never forget Julie Davis telling me what "Pearl Necklace" was REALLY about and I went to a ZZ Top concert ... let's just say the air was a bit thick with "smoke" around us (not from us)

And last night at the concert I chair danced until I couldn't hold it in any more, then I got up and boogied.

OHHHH... okay... when I first read "chair danced" I was thinking something... I don't know... stripperish?

I am having a hard time with exercising. Does anyone know of a shoe or a stretch to prevent plantar fascitis?

Wonder if that's what's been wrong with my right heel this week... off to go look it up.

 

[denecarter]

Okay, I don't have plantar faciitis... my pain is on the back of my heel, not the bottom... more Achille's tendon problem.

Found some info here with stretches for it... Plantar Faciitis

 

[pixie dust 112]

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DANIELLE!!!!!

 

[pixie dust 112]

Spongie~Love the picture in you're signature! You are gorgeous! ANd the dogs pretty cute too!

Aha "Take on me" is my all time favorite video!

 

[WI_DisneyFan]

Hellooooooooooooooooooo everyone! I am here and ready to lose weight....Ok, maybe I'm not *totally* ready, but at least I'm here.

Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Linda. I am 26 years old and from Wisconsin. (yes, we are going to get over a foot of snow tomorrow) I have 2 kiddos and am a totally Disney freak. I have been there over 30 times in my lifetime and, if it wasn't for my husband's commission-based job, I would move down to Disney in a second. I vicariously live through my brother, who DOES work for Disney. He drives the monorail and I am supremely jealous when I hear how "hot" it is down there or how he gets to walk through my favorite hotel all of the time.
...
I can't wait to meet all of you!

Hello! Glad you could join us! After reading your "Fitting in at the Grand Floridian" post, I was hoping you'd come here for a little support. I've only been on the WISH forum for a little over a week, so I'm just getting my feet wet. But I can already tell that the people here are very nice and extremely supportive. I think we've all been through this at one point in our lives (and many of us are still going through it), and we are all here to lend support when ever one of us needs it. So welcome aboard!

By the way, I don't know about where you live, but in my part of Wisconsin we didn't get nearly as much snow as they were predicting. Well, not yet at least.
