Hello Dariqueen,

1st off congrats on that lb lost to add to your total! Woohoo you!

2nd of all thanks to your sis for filling that MP3 player up for ya!

3rd congrats....... for getting out and walking while pushing that stroller! Great job!

Wishing you another fantastic day tomorrow!
 
Thanks all!

Well, today was alright...I didn't feel like eating at all, which was odd for me. I had a few bites of a pancake at 9, a boiled egg at 10:30, and a tiny chicken taquito (whatever that is!) at 1:30. Then I got so busy, I didn't eat supper until 6:30, and by then I was starving and headachy (is that a word? LOL)

The day was going downhill...my DD (whom I love very much) chattered nonstop from 7:30am on. My ex hadn't come to get her for 3 days, and he was an hour and a half late tonight. I was getting depressed, I could feel it coming. He shows up at 8, and I tell him he's taking the baby too, and that I was going for a LONG walk. So he asked if I'd be home in about an hour. Seriously, an hour after 3 days? Oy:mad:

I power walked all over town for an hour, then stopped at the bar for a drink. I know, BAD! But I needed it, and I wasn't ready to go home. Also talked a bit with his current girlfriend. (What am I, a glutton for punishment?!) Anyway, the walk helped a lot, and I'm feeling better. I hope he shows up again tomorrow, but I'm not going to hold my breath!

I apologize for the long post, just a little vent:rolleyes:
 
Hello DQ,
i'm up tonight too!! seen you were on here. Hope you have a better day tomorrow. just remember, you will have some good days and some bad days. but what is important is that you keep going...
 
Thinking of you DQ - i know how hard it is with ex's and not getting any respite from kids etc.

Take care of yourself :)
 
Lovely and Wishes-Thank you :)

Today is a new day right? Abba (my girl!) is going to daycare today; so I get 4 hours to myself. I don't really count the baby as a kid yet, because he sleeps most of the time! I have a lunch date (with the ex's girlfriend, no less:p ), and I plan on walking for 1 1/2 hours today!

On a plus side, I measured myself before bed, since tomorrow is the end of the month, and I've lost a half inch off my butt, and another half inch off my tummy! Go me!
 
Yayyy for you! Before I started this weight loss thing I never understood the whole inches thing but boooy does it feel good to loose 'em! Congratulations!
 
wow congrats to you on getting 4 hours of peice and somewhat quiet!Must be nice I dont get many piece and quiet days.I read where you stroll your little 1 around town lol I tried strolling and taking my big azz dog at the same time never again!!!!It was crazy so Now I walk the dog on the floodwall and then I came back and took the baby out for like 6 blocks so he can enjoy the outdoors as well!
Keep up the hard work! Tammy:)

Dude i have a lot of respect for you for eating luch with your ex's woman, i could not be that nice, I am a biotch like that!!! but it is so good for the kids to get along like that and besides you know what they say "keep yur friends close and your enemies closer" lol :p you are doing so good, thanxs for the insperation you provide to all us, you rock man!!!

An INCH - that's WONDERFUL!! You are literally working your butt OFF! Keep up the great work!!!! ;)
 
:D I like the girlfriend; it's the ex that bugs the cr@p outta me!:rolleyes:

We didn't end up walking; it was too windy for the baby. So I put him to bed and did my Fit to Strip video. I've only done it 5 times now, but I'm already finding it easier to do the moves! I love feeling stronger. :)

I weighed myself today for the end of the month, and I've gone up half a pound :( I'm telling myself that it's muscle:D Maybe it is.
 
Don't sweat it!

Half a pound - hey you've lost 7! Don't sweat it!

PS - Don't strip too hard the kids a watching *blushing* - just kidding! LOL Way to go on not using the weather as an excuse not to WO - your doing great! With you Carmen Electra self LOL :D
 
Don't worry. It is muscle. All them stripping moves, you are getting muscles in your legs:D Have a Great Day and drink your WATER:p
 
I was just sititng here, reading some diaries, and hearing about comments made by thoughtless strangers/family/friends. Before, I said that my family and friends are very supportive, and it is true. But a memory just popped into my head that I can't get rid of.

Back in high school, after I started gaining weight, I didn't dress very well. I had an exaggerated hourglass figure, but didn't know it, so I dressed in big, boxy looking shirts and jackets. Anyway, my grandma had taken a pic of me and my sis, and when she showed it to me, she made the comment that I looked like "two-ton Tessie". I dont' think she meant to make me feel bad. But now it's 18 years later, and she died 13 years ago, and that's one of the few memories I have of her. To know that that's all she knew about me, was that I was 16, and that I was fat. How sad is that.
 
I'm so sorry that that memory still persists in your mind, but don't let it get you down. It's unfortunate that a person can look at anyone and only see the outside of them. I haven't known you very long, but you are one of the most beautiful people I know. You have such a kind and gentle spirit and you are always trying to ensure that we feel good about ourselves. I am sincerely happy to have the privilege to know you. So keep your head up and don't feel bad for yourself, feel bad for those who have missed out on knowing how great you are...because it is TRULY their loss. Love ya girl! *big hug*
 
OHD, you made me tear up again, but in a good way!:) Thank you for your kind words. I appreciate you as well, and all of the encouragement you have given me and others that I've seen in my month here.

I try not to let it get to me...I'm pretty sure, looking back, that my grandma was commenting more on the way my clothes were making me look...not how big I was. Oh well, what's past is past, right?;)

I am going to lift my spirits now by trying my new Pilates video. I've never done Pilates before...please wish me luck so that I don't kill myself:D
 
Aww, you're welcome sweetie!! As for the Pilates...be careful, my first time I almost broke my neck doing that roll thing! :p :p There should be a warning on those darn dvds! :D :D
