Re: ~~Winter ONEderland Challenge(Jan.)~~~

OK, I am eating my breakfast quiche right now. It is super yummy! I made it with spinach mushrooms green pepper tablespoon pressed rotel a bit of leftover beef sausage from last night's dinner(we had sausages and kraut) witha bit of cheese on top! YUM! I am thinking of making pizza with this recipe because its so good!!!!! It would be awesome with some sauce and cheese sprinkled on top and eaten cold. I love cold pizza, in fact I eat my quiche cold too!..... anywho, I am about to make my way over to do some exercise. I think I am gonna do TJ today..... I let a friend borrow some dvds and I haven't gotten them back! oh well....... Maybe she gave them back and they are at work. I will check today... anywhoo=-----catch up with yall later!!!!!

Re: ~~Winter ONEderland Challenge(Jan.)~~~

Rikki- mmmm that quiche sounds yummy........I'm such an easy breezy cook, I wish I enjoyed cooking more. If something has too many ingredients I seem to stay away from it. :sigh

Well I'm staying on plan. Today I did 2 hours of exercise.....woo hoooo. I got a new treadmill sat. and I love it. Although my husband is probobly a little concerned with my decor.......gazelle is in kitchen, treadmill and exercise ball in living room. Sure I could put them down the cellar but the question would be, would I use them? So yup my house might look abit odd but who cares I'm actually using them.

I'm sooooooooo mad at myself New Years eve I weighed 189.......monday I weighed 194. It has taken me from monday til today to get back down to 189. Uggggggggg
Oh well I wanted to go out so I guess there is always a price to pay.

Hope you guys are doing well and staying on plan.

Re: ~~Winter ONEderland Challenge(Jan.)~~~

The quiche is always extremely simple for me, toll a bunch of stuff in with some eggs, beat and bake...and I can eat it for a few days if I am lazy and don't want to cook.
Check in later! How is everyone else doing?

Re: ~~Winter ONEderland Challenge(Jan.)~~~

Hi guys. I am still sticking to plan, only did tj20 today and it kicked my butt!!!! bad!!! I am super stressed over a job opportunity(temporary opportunity) I will explain more later... basically I am deciding to take the backseat with my full time stylist position to teach cosmetology to high school students till the end of the year. Its something I have thought about doing before but is a drive to get there.... I will go there tomorrow to see just how far it is and pay and whatnot... I hope everything works out but for now I am being a worry wart.... I will stil work at least pt where I am at if it works out... sheesh! Sorry- I will be back soon........ I will let you guys know tomorrow how it pans out!!!! Send good vibes my way!!!!!!! I am praying everything will work out!!!!

Re: ~~Winter ONEderland Challenge(Jan.)~~~

Hey - good to see you're all doing great! I am sending good vibes your way, Rikki, that sounds like a great opportunity!

MsChrissy - that's awesome that you have so much exercise equipment and you are using them!! My one machine is a treadmill - it's one of those that folds up to save space, so that's all I have room for. If I ever get my own place I'd like to get one of those weight machines or resistance machines to help tone my muscles. One day!! For now it's treadmill and aerobic video stuff for me!

Yankee and Brook , hope all is well with both of you!


I think I'm settling into my routine with the working a job and exercising. Got home, took a catnap and then did a half hour xbox fitness cardio workout. Still need to go walk the dog in a minute though! I'm still losing, which is nice, but it is going soooo much slower then it used to. I wish I could find a way to pick up the pace a little! But losing a little is better then none at all.

Hope everyone is having a goodnight!

Re: ~~Winter ONEderland Challenge(Jan.)~~~

Rikki- I might just try making one. They do sound yummy...and pretty easy.

Mary- My house is so small it's a ranch......my treadmill is a space saver too but I just leave it down. If I'm still doing well in 6 months I want to get a bow flex or some type of weights, cause I heard that it is very good for you (But I'm the type to buy stuff and never use it so I want to make sure I'm still doing this for the long haul). I do have resistance bands......but no clue how to use them. I might look for a video that will help.

I'm staying on plan......still 189, Yup I can't stay away from the scale each day. My face is looking alot skinnier......it looks like I'm shrinking. My appetite has been cruddy lately actually had to forse myself to eat past few days. Well it's 2;30 in afternoon and all I had today was two thin slices of roast beef, with two thin slices of red pepper, 1 slice of cheese rolled up. .....90 oz of water though so thats good. I kinda like the feeling of not being obsessed with food and thinking of what I'm going to eat next when I haven't even finished the first meal. It's a nice feeling .......

Well I hope everyone is doing well and sticking with plan.

Re: ~~Winter ONEderland Challenge(Jan.)~~~

I'm checking in so I can hang on instead of heading for the frig! I've been doing ok but have that antsy, pre-TOM thing going on that makes me crave stuff that's no good for me! Once it passes I'll be looking for the scale to drop some. Weigh-in is tomorrow? I'm positive I've maintained - hope for an ounce or two to be gone!

Re: ~~Winter ONEderland Challenge(Jan.)~~~

Woooo Hoooo Mary, way to go.....it's so nice to see the numbers go down! You def. deserve it!

Teri- I am the same around TOM. I can't believe I *CAN* actually live without sweets around that time. Yes: Teri step away from the frig and drink that water.

I've stayed on plan today and drinking all my water. I also exercised for 130 minutes today......I'm so excited I'm getting off my big fat butt and sticking with this.

Take care ladies and Keep up the great work!
