Re: First Day of Spring Challenge

I am thinking about having a Fruit2O...I bought a case of them. They sweetened w/ splenda That''l be my treat tonight, I think.

Oh, I almost for got to brag, LOL, I woke up this morning at 10 am (I know, I'm such a bum!LOL), and Joey was not in his crib, and John wasn't in bed. I walk outta the bedroom and there John was, making ME BREAKFAST. I think my husband was abducted by aliens lastnight and replaced with some nice being. It is crazy!! He gave Joey his Bananas, his Bottle, dressed him and everything! I was in complete shock..I still am!!! I LOVE that John is eating this way now. He told me, and I quote "I feel just so, clean. I have so much energy!". MY HUSBAND said that! LOL He drank 96 oz of water so far, AND he went on the elliptical for 20 minutes! Jeezzz, he's showin me up!

I had to share that with you guys. It's amazing how great you feel when you take care of yourself. It really made me think about the difference in MY attitude, too. I am completely different now. Have you guys had the same experience?

Well, I'm off to update the charts, you skinny people, you!

Well, I stopped at 4 beers last night. I didn't go out and drink anymore...we went to a bday party and thats when I drank them.... no more of that for a while!!!! I did not end up eating dinner so my calories were good, just not in the right portions... I woke up this morning to 188.4! Yes! Hopefully I am not just dehydrated! I am hoping to go to the park with teh dogs today if it gets warm enough. I wnat that to be my exercise, oh and all the laundry and housework I have to get caught up on....arg

Re: First Day of Spring Challenge

188.4!?! That's so incredible!!!! You are doing sooooo awesome!!!!

I am STILL at 169.2. I jumped up from 167.8, after TOM got here. It's starting to frustrate me!!! Grrrrr. TOM go away! I just wanna be 167.8 again! LOL

DH lost a total of 5.8 pounds so far and this is his 4th day. The bum! He's 5'10 and 165.6 this morning!!! He's SOLID though..but has a little belly, that's almost gone now. He's gonna go through the rungs very fast. He'll be in maintenance before I get done w/ extended induction!! I really can only see him MAYBE losting 20 pounds total. He isn't fat at all. He's so excited. He's lifting weight again, and he wants to get bigger and the amt of fat and protein we consume is ideal for lifting. I am so happy he's happy.

Well, good luck with the water everyone!! I am aiming at 100 oz today, starting now. I GOTTA get this scale to move. I'd get on the elliptical and I know I could get it to budge, but it's not worth it with my back hurting... I hope it gets better soon

Have a great day!!!

Re: First Day of Spring Challenge

Hey...I missed all the chatting! Happy birthday Heather. Weigh to go Rikki...your before and after is amazing!!! Steph...sounds like your day got off to a wonderful start!! So glad you and DH are doing so well!!!!

Now if someone can tell me where the kids put the remote..it has been missing since yesterday and we have satellite tv so hard to change by hand...my day would be complete!!

Re: First Day of Spring Challenge

LOL!! Welcome back Elsie!!! How was your weekend??? I hope you had such a blast!!

Rikki, ONG girl, you look soooo awesome in your siggy picture!!! WEIGH TO GO!!! You are so pretty girl!! Thanks so much for sharing that BEAUTIFUL picture with us!!

Oh, I am so tired. We found out DH has a suspended license, so I had to get up and 5:45 and drive him to work. 40 minutes there 40 minutes back, with Joey and my 2 nephews that I watch in the morning. I'm exhausted. I hated wating Joey up, but maybe he'll start going to bed a little earlier?!? LOL Mama could use a little extra sleep! Anyhow..I can drink soooo much water when I am driving. I guess it's b/c I used to ALWAYS have a soda w/ me when I went out. I drank 48oz total so far! Yea me! I know I can get my other 2 bottles in for a total of 96..and that's just the driving! LOL. I will try to hit 144 oz today. That's not too bad, especially b/c I drink at least 2 bottles in the day time, just sitting here, typing awayyyyyy.

I am so afraid to weigh myself, after I drank that water. I will get on the scale w/ a bottle to see how much of a difference it makes, and then subtract the 2 bottles I drank. How does that sound? I am not going to just subtract the oz from my weight b/c I was curious once and did you know that I have a 16.9 oz bottle in my hand when I weighed, got off did it again w/out, and it was only a 1.2 lb difference...I don't want to think I weigh less than I do. LOL

Well, I am going to weigh and maybe get on my elliptical for a little bit. Not much...just maybe 10 minutes to see how me back does. Gotta challenge coming up and I wanna make my goal this time!!

I'll see you guys later!!

Re: First Day of Spring Challenge

Oh yea.. Rikki, I almost forgot...DH's build IS weird! He weighs that much but anytime a male guesses his weight, they say 180, 190! LOL He's got big arms, and big calves, and his thighs are big, but not horse legs. I think that's where he deceves everyone. He looks like his legs are a lot bigger than they are. Most of his muscle weight is in his arms, shoulders, and chest. His fat is on his belly. I used to joke around w/ him when I was pregnant and say he was 4 months preggo w/ the girl, and I was having the boy! LOL. He always laughed..

He's so excited b/c his belly is pretty much gone now. I really think he was really bloated from all the crap he eats. Not really fat, per say. He was running around flexing his stomach and he was so happy to have a 4 pack for now! He looked like a little kid.."Look at me, Look at this!" It was so funny! I'll have to take a surprise pic of his muscles when he's flexing in the mirror. He's worse than a woman....
