Roll Call 2/07 Thursday

[OzLover]

Good Morning Stacers!

I woke up today with 12" of new snow...yuk Have been having a hard time due to the winter blues. I did wake up with a new attitude. With news of the tornados & all they damage they caused I realized I need to be grateful for all that I have. I know...being grateful for the snow is wacky. But my house is still standing, we are alive & our daily routine no longer seems so mundane.

I hope that ADBB members & their families are safe!

Everyone have a wonderful day!

Re: Roll Call 2/07 Thursday

True story. Today is a great day to be grateful. Thank God we all have our health.

Speaking of... I know I will be doing great for the next 39 days, because of lent. I'm not saying what I gave up... but I have a good feeling about it.

I have 3 houses to do today... so wish me luck on that. It's going to take a lot of energy... I've never done 3 in one day before... but at least I'll get my exercise out of it

Have a great day everyone and stay thankful!

Re: Roll Call 2/07 Thursday

I'm having an icky morning. I woke up with zero energy, hauled my rear through my workout, and went to make the kids some breakfast. I got the kid's breakfast finished and took my multivitamin, which for some reason made me sick and I was trying to not throw up in the kitchen trash can. I don't know if my two year old isn't feeling well or if my trying not to be sick made him sick cause I turned around and he'd threw up on himself. I think its just gonna be one of those days. Everyone be safe and legal!

plsmachic - Congrats on doing three houses and good luck!!

Re: Roll Call 2/07 Thursday

Good morning. Cold and snowy here too. Getting tired of it, but it's getting rather routine. My winter coat is too big! Already thinking about buying a smaller one for next year if I see a good sale. Just don't know what size to buy.

Have a great Thursday everyone.

Re: Roll Call 2/07 Thursday

We got dumped on here as well, it snowed steady for a good 30 hours But like Ozlover, I'm greatful that that storm only brought us snow, as it's the same one the caused the tornados. It was actually a snow-thunderstorm, which is a rare occurance, lots of thunder and lightening came with it.

i threw my lower back out shovelling yesterday, very very badly. It was bad yesterday, but far worse when i woke up this a.m. (the pain actually woke me up). I can barely walk. i'm going to try to do some easy streches and hope it comes around. I have to help host a baby shower Saturday and i have far too much to do to be incapacitated! it's going to be bad enough getting around in my car, nevermind not being able to walk as well!

On the good side: my next door neighbour shovelled our driveway for us this morning before he left for work. Wow i have great neighbours!

Re: Roll Call 2/07 Thursday

Good morning everyone! As most of you said, the snow did come down here too in detroit.. but, I LOVE IT!! anyway.. had a decent night full of temptations last night, but I kept my cool and my lil weiners on hand... LOL!

plsmachic.. i noticed we live fairly close to eachother.. thats awsome! you are gorgeous and very insperational!!

Sheepie... omg.. that is the best feeling in the world when your clothes start getting big, I remember last time I lost a bunch of weight I put on an old outfit that I hadn't worn I awhile... and.. I was gonna wear it.. well... the shirt literally fell right off of my body, I couldn't stop laughing! It was the best feeling ever, and I know you've got to be smilling really big right now!! keep it up!

Hope everyone has an awesome day and makes the best of everything!

Re: Roll Call 2/07 Thursday

Morning, all!

Well, let's see.

It's Thursday. 1 more day until Friday. (waving pom poms for myself).

Got lunches packed, having my coffee, checking in with my STAC buddies......feeling lean. Scale UP. <sheesh!> Must be the bladder infection and antibiotics, as TOM is almost gone. You know what? That scale doesn't mean a thing, and what it is saying right now has no impact on me because I can FEEL the difference in my body.

I think it's going to be a good day. I see the chiropractor in the afternoon, and then I'll hit the gym for some really good cardio and abs. It's been too disgusting to run lately, but I may try that as it warms up later this week - I only run outside, just can't do it on the treadmill.

Today, notice three positive things you have in common with thing people.

Re: Roll Call 2/07 Thursday

Morning, scale says 166.2. So good to be on the downward slope. Son threw up twice last night and the stomach flu is going around at his school and daycare as well as a friend at work also was out for two days because of it so i am crossing my fingers i do not get sick. I am not used to my child being ill as he is generally healthy. Rarely even catches a cold. So it is hard for me to see him so lethargic.

Re: Roll Call 2/07 Thursday

I'm feeling kind of scattered today but otherwise doing well. Staying on plan but having a harder time getting my exercise in. I hope all is well for everyone!

Re: Roll Call 2/07 Thursday

Morning!!

Woke up with a seriously crappy sore throat. The two younger ones are just getting over some sort of crud, now hubby and I seem to be getting it - super!

Had Boot Camp class last night - was really hard - harder than usual - but nonetheless fantastic

I'm up this morn 1lb - going to attribute that to holding water for my poor, poor legs who got worked yesterday!

I am totally in love with Shirataki noodles - OMG! Yesterday, I sauteed some zucchini, yellow squash, blk olives and garlic with shrimp and 1 tbsp of hunts no sugar added sauce - threw in the shirataki and it was amazing!

Going to Fusion (pilates and yoga blend) class this morning. Excited about that!

You guys rock my world! The support here is just awesome and I'm so happy I found this place!

Hope everyone has a fun, positive Thursday!

Re: Roll Call 2/07 Thursday

I was dumb and forgot to buy Atkins friendly food for lunch last time I went out.. so today I'll prolly have to go buy a salad. I hate taking time out of my day! Ugh. Band practice dress rehearsal tonight, which I'm a bit excited about because I get to show off my weight loss progress. ^_^ I look sooo much better in my ripped up jeans than I did a few months ago.. ugh.. and I bought this new pushup bra that makes my boobs look amazing, so I'm really excited!

Where do you find them? I've looked, but haven't found them. Are they in health food stores or Asian stores? That sounds really yummy!
