ROFLAMO!!

Thanks Sunflower...that was cute.

Just back for a few minutes for groceries and a few things. Big party this comming Saturday at the cottage...20 ish guests, all day, deep fried turkey dinner with all the fixins (Including huge jumbo shrimp) by yours truly. ( I know....not the place to post it on a weight loss thread...)

Food lately - not saying anything till my lawyer gets here!

Running....only went the once. Going again tonite. hopefully 5 km with a good time.

Weight feels the same but I know I'm not losing. But I got a nice tan so maybe the weightgain is from the tan! lol j/k

Hope you are all doing great and wish I had the time to catch up on everybodies thread. Should be back Sunday for a while.

Take care and have a great upcomming weekend!
 
Have a wonderful time for the rest of your vacation. There will be plenty of time afterwards to repair the damage :D

Hahaha. There are some things that even a lawyer can't protect you from. :D But it's difficult when you go on a vacation somewhere to eat well. Even when I go to visit someone else at their home for a meal it's challenging. You'll be back on track once you're back home and I'm sure you're still eating much better than you would have on vacation in the past, right? :) Anyway, I hope you're having a terrific time and have a wonderful party at the cottage. It sounds like it will be fun. :)
 
Hey flumsey, guess what????? Elton John is coming to our little island in September. I can't believe it nobody decent ever comes here. Not only that but he is on with Andrea Bocelli. My sister is looking into getting tickets for us tomorrow. I am so excited as I was so jealous when you went :)
 
Hey Flumey! We miss you!!!

I thought about you today when I tried what I now call a 'Flumesnack'. It was tuna mixed with shredded cucumber! It was actually pretty good! Thanks for the foodspiration!

Hope you are having a blast! Don't drink too much rum (as I sit here sipping a glass of wine). :cheers2:
 
And we're back!

Ok...so my July holiday has come to an end and with as much sadness, comes an equal amount of joy to be back here online. Its weird, but I'm really addicted to being able to come here and check up on friends journals and get my daily dosage of motivation and inspiration.


Now realizing my holiday was coming to an end, and that I would have to report back to you guys, I got my diet back on track yesterday.

Yesterday
Brekkie - oatmeal with blueberries and protein powder
Lunch - tuna and ricotta cheese on a rice cake
Supper - one turkey burger patty with boiled carrots and a cucumber tomato salad.
Desert - 2 oz rum :)
Not enuff water thru the day tho

Today
Brekkie - Oatmeal like yesterday
Lunch - 1/4 leftover bbq rotiserie chicken (dry as a fart) with cucumber tomato salad (I really like crunchy cucumbers :)
Dinner - who knows but it will be healthy.
Also working nites tonite so hopefully I can stay on track and eat only healthy stuff
And my water intake is ontrack!


So....now that I have checked in, I get to update a lot of threads and catch up on some juicy motivation! Ahhhhh......its good to be back :)



Have a great day!

Welcome back! It's good to see you around again. I understand about the addiction. I feel a little sad if I don't have time to check in here regularly. :D

I really hope you had the best time there and after your nice long rest and relaxation time, feel energized to be back on track again. :)

You have a wonderful day, as well!

Hope you are having a wonderful time with family. Come back and update us soon.

Thanks Juni! Had a really really good time. The weather was the best week I ever had off, and the kids are now old enough to keep themselves entertained (by catching frogs/toads, bug collecting, clam smashing, tormenting mice caught in a live trap, snake slinging....)typical boys lol.
Even got to relax for a change! Yup...it was great. But its also good to be back.

Thanks Jana! Had a really good time at camp and the party was a smash! The weather held out, (they were calling for massive thunderstorms that didnt materialize) and we were able to spend the whole time outside. But its nice to get back and get on track again. It felt like I was cheating the whole time I was on vacation...(which I was!)

Hey there!!! I missed ya in my prevoius post. Sorry bout that!.

Thanks for the hugs :) Great to be back....(all squishy)!

Gonna catch up on your thread in a bit....last time I checked, you were lookin pretty slim! Hope you are keepin well! Have a great nite!
 
Evenin peeps.

First the daily food blurb.

Last nite,
Supper - I had 1-1/2 chicken breasts and some mixed veggies
Snack - 1 cup of cheeries. Very tasty and huge!
Snack - one can of flavoured tuna and cucumber. Had to have a slice of rye bread with the tuna cause the black bean and pepper sauce was way overpowering.
Snack - one sliver of a pizza the previous shift left to tempt me (da Bastards!!) lol

Now this morning, I only got 4 hours sleep. And then the phone rang. So I got up and thought...what the hell....lets see how much damage I did in the course of my vacation.

199.8...

what???

199.8!

hmmmm.....is this thing working.....asked wifey to get on. (bad idea cause she was pissed with her gain!

So I get back on....

:willy_nilly:199.8!!!!!!!!:willy_nilly:


YYYYYYYEEEEHHAAWWWWWWWWWW!!!

I am in ONDERLAND!!! Finally!!!!!!


So....for my treat.... I took a friends advice (guess who that was) and got fitted for real running shoes. Found out I'm an over pronator. I almost spent as much as my weight but boy do they feel good.
Can't wait to try them out. Hopefully tomorrow afternoon.

The rest of the day was spent with a silly grin on my face....partly because of my weight loss and partly because I got a tooth filled at the dentist. lol

Food today

Brekie (which was my lunch) salad with chicken breast
Dinner - steak and cauliflower with 1/2 cup rice and 1/2 cup sauted mushrooms and onions.
Snack tonite tuna, cherries, cucumber and watermelon if I need it.

Now...time to peruse some journals!

Life is good!

Have a great nite folks!
 
*jjjay dances around singing "woo ooh ooh 199 woo ooh ooh 199. Skinny ol' flumes woo ooh oooh" whilst shaking her ass and rattlin' her mojo*

Way to goooooo flumes!! There will be none of you left soon!! Really pleased for you hon and proud of all your hard work!

You over pro- nator you!! For those not in the know., that's the running equivalent of a pro-crastinator...right flumes?!

Seriously though, go for a run in those new babies and you will never ever look back!!! Do me a favour though, buy a pair of specialist running socks with the padded ball of the foot etc... These made another bug difference to me rather than any old sports sock. I just can't imagine running in any old trainers now... Gig to be my running shoes!
 
That's fantastic Flumsey :D:D that's you and Stacy both lost weight vacation. amazing :)
I really need to save up for some of those shoes. The upper part of my trainers seems to get in the way when I run especially the left foot.

Seems like you had a really nice time away, Flumie And to come back to a LOSS. That is amazing!! Congratulations! I really need to get back to running again-- when I get home hopefully in a few weeks. Hope the week is going well.
