Kaitie's Open Diary

Yep, started the double cardio---well, John changed it around so now it's only double cardio on Monday, Wednesday, Friday, and 1 round of cardio of Tuesday, Thursday...plus us clearing the monster bushes in our yard (we did two today and holy crap they're huge!!!), taking the roof and sides off of our hillbilly deck (oh it's awful, I'm so embarrassed by it!), ripping up the carpet in the 'blue room', cleaning out the attic, and throwing away a load of crap that we've accumulated throughout the school year...so yeah, we're keepin' busy!!

Plus---Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows comes out in less than a month---Yippee!!! I'm so addicted!
 
Good for you Kaitie!!! I am actually looking forward to my attempt to wear the bathing suit out in public. Last year, despite being up in weight, I made myself go without the t-shirt. This year I'm losing the shorts too. :eek: I know it's going to feel awesome!!

I cannot wait for Harry Potter! I've started the countdown.

That's a very ambitious routine you have ahead. You can do it and you're gonna be moving down that scale so fast!
 
Call me a loser if you must but I'm really annoyed that John hurt his back AGAIN and has consequently been sitting on the damn couch doing nothing for days. We had a BBQ yesterday and I did all the freakin' work, cleaned the house, moved tables and chairs, put together the new BBQ grill, prepped all the food---everything!!!! Part of me thinks that he's faking it so that he doesn't have to do any work. Shame on me I know---but it's f-in frustrating to be workin' my ass off and seeing him sitting on his damn ass and flipping through channel after channel for hours and hours.

Grr...
 
Hi Kaitie,
Just popping in to your diary to say Hello! I noticed that our goal weights are the same. I started out at 209lbs and hope to be 130 by the end of the year. Seeing people on this forum with similar goals keeps me motivated. It's good to know no one is alone in their struggles; we're all here for support.

Hope your hubby's back is better soon. I understand your anger at his possible 'excuse' but I guess we all need a break now and then just as long as it doesn't become a habit.

Keep Smiling!:)

I would be pissed as well - damn girl look at your ticker - you are so doing it!!!
 
Well, it's been a busy summer!

Half the bushes are now gone (wahoo!)
Attic is clean and organized
Ripped up the carpet, painted the walls, and will be installing the new floor next week in one of the upstairs bedrooms (damn cats!)

and!! My Harry Potter obsession is in full swing! Read the new book twice now and I've started re-reading towards the end to catch some of the bits that I'm still a little 'huh?' about. But OMG, I love JKR...she's an amazing author.

Anyway, all is well. 146.2 this morning, one year after I found this lovely forum. So I've officially lost 57.3 pounds--wahoo!!!

:)
 
Well done on your success so far... you've done so well.
I hope to get to where you are one day in the future. :D xx
 
Hello everyone!!!

I know---I fell off the face of the earth for a while but fear not, I'm still workin' on getting my ultra hot sexy body! So here's the deal, I'm completely satisfied with being at 145'ish (depends on the day, or the ice cream from the night before) so pushing for the 130's ---well, let's just say I've kind of lost my mojo. (One of my students said that to me last year in reference to his trombone practice, thought it was hilarious but now I understand what he meant.) Anyway, I'm going to try and re-apply myself to get down to 130 (even though in my head I just said 'but I don't want to!) Ok so the flesh is willing but the mind is weak.... John (who's 15 pounds away from the 100 mark) and I want to take a trip in March, we're thinking Hawaii---It'd be nice to be skinnier for that trip, also I want to have kids soon and I'm bound and determined not to gain so much weight that I'm a fat cow again so the lower I am to start the less I'll have to lose when I pop out the kid right? They say the average person puts on 20 pounds during pregnancy so I wouldn't be to far from where I am now which I think I'm pretty happy with---ok so there's my rambling talk. 15 pounds to go so that I'll be a super sexy mama for all the Hawaiians (sp) and so I won't look like a cow when I'm pregnant---seriously, I have this friend who I see rarely and so I went over to visit her b/c she said she was pregnant, well I went to see her and she was already so fat (250-275) that I couldn't tell that she was pregnant---I soooooooo don't want to be like that. Anyway, I guess I'm requesting some mojo assistance. I've been really good at maintaining my weight---I have to say that was one of my fears of leaving this site and then coming back, I didn't want to be one of those people who became semi-skinny, leaves for a while and comes back complaining that I put the weight back on...so wahoo on that point for me!

Ok, I'm done. My class should be coming down soon and as any teacher in the world could tell you---gotta go now or dance for 45 minutes!

Cannon: My school year has be GREAT!!! so far. I got my own room so I hardly ever see my bitchy collegue--WAHOOO!!!! and my schedule rocks, seriously it's the best schedule I've ever had in my 11--nope, 12 years of teaching! How are things with you? Did your summer turn out the way that you wanted? How's your new job?

Talk to ya'll soon! And maybe a picture or two---got some new clothes--size 6 skirts thank you very much!! :)
