shopping

nothing like trying on clothes to make you feel REALLY FREAKING FAT!!!! ugh. i'm not criticizing myself, just stating a fact. it has motivated me to get my butt moving this week because the excuses are gone. i'm not sick, not PMSing, not busy, so time to RUN!

Top Two....Because That's All There Was

There are two in the "top three" this week because that's all I heard from.

I want to hear from more of you!


Please.....

pretty please.......

Pretty please with a cherry on top??????

Where Have All The Losers Gone?

Okay......so I'm starting to hear the crickets......REALLY!!!!!
I didn't hear from anyone on their weight loss this past week and I was the only one to report this week and the week before. Let's all try a little harder this week. Believe me I'm not trying to be bossy, but it would make it a lot more fun. I don't want to be the only one having to report weight gain every week.....blah!
Hopefully my new leaf has been turned after having stomach problems last week. I'm really trying to eat better food and not so much fast food. It gets to be really easy to run through the drive thru....even after stopping at the grocery store! What!? I have a whole load of groceries in the car and I'm still stopping at McD's? It's those Monsters vs. Aliens toys.....I've got to have them all!
Okay, so I hope I hear from more people on Sunday about their progress and it will be like a fresh start. June isn't that far away!

Top Three

I didn't get anyone's numbers.....

so there won't be a top three I guess


Remember next weigh in is Sunday (Easter)

a friend of mine (diane passey) wrote this and put it on her blog and i thought it was perfect for THIS blog! it's pretty funny! enjoy.

Ode to Fat Cells

Fat cells, you are not my friend,
You haunt me to the bitter end.
Someday I will make you see
that you should not be part of me.

Why do you fight to leave my tummy?
Staying there is just plain dummy.
I squish you into all my pants
and yet you stay and do a dance.

What do I have to say to you?
Your presence makes me oh so blue!
I drink water day and night.
No soda or sugary drinks I like.

I eat my fruits and whole grain wheat.
I like my carrots- apples are a treat!
Bananas, salad, berries rock!
Beans and peas I keep in stock.

Soy milk 'stead of juice from cow,
Give me Kashi cereals now!
Fish, chicken, low fat meat
are the staples that I eat.

Watching proteins, carbs, and dairy,
being balanced as a fairy.
Working out 5 days a week
for 90 minutes, can't be beat!

AND YET...

You stick to arms, thighs, hips, and chest.
On belly, buttocks, chin, you rest.
Thinking this is great vacation
Why can't you visit United Nations?

You must leave my body soon.
I will threaten night to noon!
You must not keep sneaking round.
Leave my torso pound by pound!

You think you win, but you will see -
the battle's just begun for me.
And with warning, I'll let you know-
you'd best pack up and get ready to GO!!!

Top Three

So our new top three for this past week are:

#1-Quin with a 1 lb. weight loss

#2-Jen staying steady at the same weight along with Kandi and Clint.

#3-Me with a gain???? How can that be considered top three......i'm nixing the #3 spot this time.....

Hopefully we'll get rid of this blasted snow and it will solve all our problems in the exercise and weight loss. I know I'm having a hard time when all I want to do is stay warm with some hot chocolate and cookies. Darn food!
