How Long Can You Go???

Re: How Long Can You Go???

Good morning! Phew another hot one down, thank goodness. You guys really keep me going. Dolphin, you could be a motivational speaker. Keep up the good work everyone

Ah you're so sweet! Hopefully the heat disappates on your end. I can deal with winter better than summer heat. Being that it doesn't snow in here California so maybe that's why.

Tirtle that's where that chick was, @ your house? Well I'm happy for you, it couldn't have happened to a better person. I know you're elated right now!!!

ImCommitted, have a fun, cheat-free trip. Remember nothing feels as good as thin feels (don't know you wrote that) but its sooooo true!!!

Roxy, tell the waiter not to bring bread to your table, if its too tempting for you. Ask if you can get raw veggies instead, chunks of cheeses, I'm sure they'll want to keep your business and will accomodate you. Happy Anniversay girl!!!

Star, Roshan, Christine and Kat where are you ladies this morning?? (good evening for Roshan) I know you'll be here, I'm just up and so happy that the heat broke and rain has come upon us here in L.A.

Re: How Long Can You Go???

Today is two weeks for me, down an extra 1lb. this morning, could've been 2 lbs. but I had to over induldge because I was thinking my old Atkins way.

Good Luck Everybody and have a BEAUTIFUL DAY!!!! Remember to drink plenty of water, it flushes the fat away.

ImCommitted, see you on Sunday or Monday! Stay cheatfree hon!

Good morning ladies!

Maerow – Welcome to our challenge! We look forward to seeing the cheat-free days add up for you.

Gabrielle – WooHoo on breaking the 215 barrier you get stuck at!

Kislandmom – ugh, I feel for you on the pain. Take care of yourself and that whooshie will come soon!

FedUp – Isn’t it wonderful to see those blinkies moving up? Congrats on the loss. You’ll be at that mini-goal in no time.

Star – So glad this challenge has helped move your scale again. Happy dance!

Stephie – You’ll be back at the two week point in no time. Congrats on the new blinkie!

Samantha – Hope you find a way to stay cool! Oh, and thank you for serving our country. It means a lot!

Tirtle – Looks like that whoosh fairy is making her rounds. Woohoo on the loss!

ImCommited – Enjoy your trip! We’ll be sending our cheat-free vibes your way.

Roxy – How sweet of your hubby for offering to cook. But you’re right, you probably need a night away and a grown-up meal. Have fun shopping!

Dolphin – Congrats on the 1 pound gone and the 2 week blinkie! You’re doing awesome!

I’m still good. My blinkie is still going up. And I’m exercising, so everything is moving in the right direction. Now if I could just lose this nagging sinus issue, I’d be very happy. It’s been a week now, enough already! Coughing makes me hiccup, hiccupping makes me sick to my stomach. GRRR.

Here’s to a great day everyone!

Re: How Long Can You Go???

Thanks Ralynda!

I'm so glad that I decided to move to OWL...I get more food choices, but I'm still losing a decent amount, it's great!

Re: How Long Can You Go???

Good evening everyone! I am glad to see that everyone is staying cheat free. I made it thru another day. We had a lady come into our office today with a HUGE bag full of goodies from Great Harvest Bread Company. All of it was fresh out of the oven and I used to eat so much of that stuff. I was not even tempted by the gigantic brownies. Yeah Me .


Roxy - I know what you mean about needing a break from the kids. I used to do daycare in my home and had a total of 8 kids here. I SOOO needed to talk to a grown up by the end of the day that the parents could never get out the door to leave. So, enjoy your dinner out at a place that does not offer paper placemats and crayons for entertainment. Read a People Magazine and catch up on grown up things to talk with your husband about and enjoy the fact that there are no noses (or hineys) to wipe and that he can cut up his OWN meal!!!

Christine - congrats on the 2 pounds. At the end of my 2 weeks, I am going to start climbing the ladder. You have motivated me to take the leap.

Starmaker - What an exciting job you have. My friends hubby is a musician and he is not the musical director for Rock and Roll High School. (yep, it's a real place).

Dolphin - I love to read your posts. You have such a sense of humor!!

Okay, so I have an embarrasing confession to make and I hope it brings a smile to your faces. I just read what a Whoosh really is. For the longest time I thought it meant that when you are having trouble going to the bathroom (you know, #2) and you were finally able to go . ROFL. When Dolphin wrote that she had a 6 pound Whoosh I was VERY impressed. Okay, how many of you are laughing at (with) me right now.

Off to do some sit ups and work on my journal. Have a wonderful evening.

I am!!!! OMG Girl you are serious that's what makes it so funny. I just wub you

I'm watching Work Out on Bravo, this show is good and I'm looking for inspiration.

Oh and Congrats on not eating the evil snacks (I won't call them goodies because there is nothing good about them).

[kislandmom]

Re: How Long Can You Go???

Yep. I'm serious. I have learned to laugh at myself when I do dumb things. Once I felt better after my ex-lax OD I was able to laugh about it with my friends. I hurt so bad I thought about going to the hospital but couldn't call the ambulance because all of my husbands friends are in the fire department. I could NOT have them see me doubled over from trying to poo!!!

Re: How Long Can You Go???

Evening guys,

Colleen...you almost made me spit water all over my monitor! I didn't know what a whooshie was when I started either, but a six pound...poo...lol! I actually laughed out loud...I think I scared my dog!

I'm getting ready to make chicken fried steak for my hubby, and just regular steak for me. I've battled a bit getting in my carbs today because well...my cupboards are almost bare. Thank goodness I get to go shopping tonight! I'm closer to induction carbs than dairy rung carbs Still, better than overdoing it, eh?

I'm so proud of all of you We're all doing great! Cheers for us!
