Kiss Me

[jeepGirl5]

That is great that they fit you!!! Way to go! See you can do anything if youput your mind into it.
I understand about being so excited. I lost more weight *dances around in a circle*. I was so excited this morning. I ran around the house naked. I did my weigh in nude..that way I know that it is all me. Not my clothes or jewlery..no excuses you know. Well, after my zippy run around the house...I got dressed to go out to see my man on his lunch hour. I looked around and noticed I had all the curtains open. LOL Well I guess everyone paying attention got a show, right? lol
It feels so good to lose it. So good in fact we may just be oblivious to the world around us *giggles*.

I am so proud of you for getting into those pants!! *high five*
Have a great day...

It feels so good to lose it. So good in fact we may just be oblivious to the world around us *giggles*

Exactly! I'm pretty much above the world today. *huge grin*

SO. I weighed in.

177 pounds.

I have decided to ignore the decimals on my scale. I want to deal with 3 digits - not four.

177 POUNDS. I lost 3 pounds and 2.5 inches. I'm pretty much stoked. Mmhmm.

I'm really excited for this next week and especially the November Challenge now! I was scared that I wouldn't be able to lose. And now that I can I am definitely shooting for ten pounds next month. Yay!

I am off to workplay all day. I'm wearing a black cami, black button-up, black pants (!), black knee high socks, black Chucks. Yay for performing.

Awesome!!! I'm right behind you; I hope to hit 177 next weekend I tried on fishnets the other day (hoping to dress "differently" for halloween ). The problem is they have little holes for the fat on my thighs to squeeze through. It wasn't pretty.

Doing the happy dance for the size 12 pants!! Woo hoo!

Yay for 177! That's a great number. And I love fishnets - I used to be scared of them. You will be sporting them with pride soon, Dari.

So I wore my pants on Saturday but there is still room for improvement in their fit. I'm excited about that. I wore a size 12 skirt today that I haven't ever worn (bought it too small). I'm drinking water and eating pretty good. Saturday I was gone all day with work and came home around sevenish. I did advanced Tae Bo and then went running until my Hero got home. I had so much energy it was amazing. I felt like I should run for an hour because the next day was my Rest Day. *grin*

It was hard not to run yesterday - even though I truly didn't have time to. I guess it's good to have that day of rest even if you don't want it. My body needed it and I appreciate it today.

Completely off-topic, my fiance is the most amazing man alive.[/fact] I had a hot cocoa last night at his request because I felt awful. He takes such wonderful care of me. I liked drinking that because I didn't have to have it.[/simple] I thought it would be good so I did and I didn't feel guilty or wrong about it. It was soooo good and hot and really helped me relax. Yes. He is absolutely amazing. Six weeks and he's all mine.

Here goes today! I had work this morning, a test right now, work this afternoon, class, work and I need to go to town for a few things. I will probably bike when I get home! Or. No. I should bike before I go probably. Anyhow. I will stay busy.

Hi! WElcome to the forum! we are glad to have you. I just got through reading through youyr diary. WOW! You sound very deicated!! LOL I'm thinking it's because you are so young! I'm 31 wwith 3 kids and in Jan. I'll be married 10 yrs.!!! I'm proud of that!! That's why I want to lose weight for the big 10 yrs. coming up!! Any way hope you are having a great day!!

 

[Ohappydaye]

Hi there! *OHD waves* I LOVE it in here, you are so funny and so dedicated! Keep up the great work. At this rate, you're going to meet your goal in NO TIME!

 

[jeepGirl5]

HI!
Sounds like you are doing great! keep up the good work!
So who are you doing Tae Bo to again? I know you told me but I forgot. Where did you get the video? I wanna get one..but I am scared. I am not the fast paced kickin type.. I think it might be fun though. We are moving to a new resort on thur and we wont have a fitness room there so I guess I will have to find other sources for my workout. *cries...hates change in routine*

Six more weeks!! How exciting for you (and him). Have you made plans for what you are going to do when he comes home? Sounds so romantic!!! It will be amazing!

Have a great day!!!

Thank you so much! I am greatly enjoying the forums. Good luck with your goal for 10 years! I know you're excited.

Hi there! *OHD waves* I LOVE it in here, you are so funny and so dedicated! Keep up the great work. At this rate, you're going to meet your goal in NO TIME!

*grin* Thank you for the encouragement! I just got off three days of completely non-dedication. *stare* It was absolutely horrible and I'm ready for them to die forever. Today is amazing already.

So who are you doing Tae Bo to again? I know you told me but I forgot. Where did you get the video? I wanna get one..but I am scared. I am not the fast paced kickin type.. I think it might be fun though.

Oh wow. Having a fitness room must have been great! You'll just have to work that much harder. *grin* You can do it! I told Hero that I wanted a gym membership when I move to a larger city - that is pretty much the ultimate excitement for me. I've never even been in a gym so....

And I do Billy Blanks Tae Bo. I have the dvd with Instructional, Basic, Advanced & 8-Minute. Do the Instructional to learn the moves. It's really slow and you can pick up the stuff in no time. The Basic is 30 minutes on those moves and it's a lot of fun! The Advanced is an hour on those moves and a lot of great variations plus some floor work for abs and derriere. I despise the Advanced as much as I love it. I told my Guy that I would be strong when I can do that hour without stopping to walk or skipping any reps! You should get that Tae Bo and start it! It really is a lot of fun. And I will make you do it three times a week. *wink*

Six more weeks!! How exciting for you (and him). Have you made plans for what you are going to do when he comes home? Sounds so romantic!!! It will be amazing!

*gringringringrin* I'm absolutely stoked. FIVE WEEKS tomorrow! And yes, I have started to plan. He will be here for so long (a monthish) that we are going to have a lot of "living time" together. I'm looking forward to that. He's bringing his bike so we will do that a lot and take a lot of walks. I want to keep losing while he's here - not just maintain. One of our "dates" will be our going to a large city and seeing a Nature Zoo, a lake-type boat ride and a symphony that night. That will be our "expensive" day, I think. He has never been to a symphony or opera so that will be amazing. I adore zoos so that's for me. *grin*

Other than that - we will probably go to the beach when we can and go Christmas shopping. I just found out it's almost completely positive that I'm moving at the end of December! My parents are moving to a different church on the beach and I will move in with them entirely at that time. It's reallyreally weird to think about but it's the best situation for right now. Um. Yes. So he will help us move as he's bringing his truck. *grin*

I totally went off on that. He lights up my life.

**

Counted calories last night to plan for today. Never did that seriously before and I am shocked. I. eat. so. much. *eyes wide* I am eating "good" stuff now - but still way too much! So I counted it out and I'm going to try and stick with this exact diet for a few days/week or so to get used to it. I'm starving right now. *wink* I think it's 1275-1320 calories. I guess I could just post what I came up with:

Tae Bo 30 min -250

Total ¾ cup 170
Milk ½ cup 45

Taquitos3 350
Raisins 130

Caesar 1 tbsp 60
Romaine
Croutons 6 30
Sunflower Seeds ¼ cup 180

Bread 2 slices 120
Peanut Butter 2 tbsp 190
1320

Hopefully that won't distort too much. And lots of water!! I'm excited. Oh yes. Hero biked this morning and I did Tae Bo. I have two partners for the November Challenge now! Jeepy is my Weight Loss Buddy and Hero is my Cardio Buddy. I'm stoked. I am eating lunch. I don't think anything has ever tasted so good. *wink*

And I started this a lot earlier and He called so I got off and now I'm posting. Yay!

 

[jeepGirl5]

It is amazing to have a fitness room here. Hardly anyone uses it. I havent ran into one person ever while I have been in there (I love that).
Plans might have changed I hope we get to come back here in a week so I have my fitness room back! I think I am still going to get the Tae Bo video. Why would I pass up some totally kickin cardio? LOL three times a week might kill me. Already sounds like hard work! I am glad you will make me do it though I will need that extra push! *sighs*
oh, your plans with your boy sound really nice. You sound so happy that is wonderful. The symphony or Opera sounds neat. We have never been to one of those either. I think an Opera might be fun though. Sounds like you ahve everything planned out. Good for you! You guys are going to have so much fun. (I emailed you a book)

Have a good day!
Keep up the positive energy, I think it is contagious!

 

[Iwan naloseit]

Well, I'm taking my first look at your diary and girl, you have serious motivation if anybody does. Keep up the good work!

 

[i wear his ring]

Testing! [/Andrew]

Then the quick reply said my message was too short and I had to add more characters. I wonder if it's long enough now. This should be more than ten characters.

Do it! Do it! I've done the Advanced for a few days in a row now. It's amazing. *grin* I was doing Basic in the morning and Advanced in the evening. I don't get to work out tonight so I did Advanced this morning.[/useless sharing]

oh, your plans with your boy sound really nice. You sound so happy that is wonderful.

I am Soooooooo JOYFUL of being with him again. I'm glad I have crazy work and working out to keep me busy! This is helping so very much.

Well, I'm taking my first look at your diary and girl, you have serious motivation if anybody does. Keep up the good work!

Thank you! Weigh-in tomorrow!!! I'm so excited. Oh yes. I'm taking my scales with me to my parents' house. It's my mom's birthday so I'm taking the afternoon off and going to be with them. My dad wants me to bring a cake, ice cream and pizza. *eyes wide* I am going to make wise choices tonight. It's already pretty awkward with my parents so I'm going to eat with them like they would - only a lot less. I can't be judgmental - Hero and I have had that talk before. But I don't want to fall in my own decisions of eating and such. So. Small bits! And I will come home tomorrow and not have to worry about it.

I'm getting my hair cut this afternoon! I got an appointment as I'll be going through town anyway. I'm excited. It's barely shoulder-length right now. I'm trying to grow it out but I also want it healthy so I'm keeping it shortish while it gets healthier. I've had a lot of problems with frying and thinning. *blows cheeks out* So today wil be good and fun.

I need to pack a bag! Have an amazing night, all!

Ohohoh. That was my amazing fiance above. *grin* I told him about the forum and he noticed at once that I didn't have a ticker and most others do. So he made me one!

 

[jeepGirl5]

Ok.. that will be the next thing on my list. (Tae bo DVD ). Gotta get myself in shape. We can do it!!
A hair cut how fun! I got my hair cut yesterday and mine was too just barely shoulder length. oh What things we have in common.

Have fun with your parents. Good luck with the cake and other tempting food. I am sure you will do fine!!

Have a safe trip (not sure how far you are going..) !!!

It was ninetyish minutes to drive to my parents'. It went well, I think. I gave her a set of three pink toiletry bags, two lacey camisoles, a few pairs of silver/gold hoops and bracelets. My dad gave her the new Hilary Duff perfume and lotion. I laughed super hard at that - my mom is NOT into...whatever kind of person Duff is. Um. Actress, pop star, whatever. *grin* But she loved the smell so he bought that. She was thrilled that I came up and things went fairly well. Fairly well = no major blow-ups. I'm sad to say I was excited that it was that calm. *soft smile* We went to a dinner-type party where at least five people told me I looked great. That's a good boost. *grin*

I was planning on going back to my parents' church tomorrow night but I am exhausted from it this time. So! I have tomorrow night off and I'm going to stay here and have an amazingly relaxed night. I will work out tomorrow and take today off. I sent my Guy a picture of my fingernails and he was shocked at them. *bursts* I used to bite them like crazy and I have been growing them out lately. They are pretty and almost healthy.[/pleased]

SO. I found the most amazing shirt today. I decided to get a really nice red top for <s>Andrew</s> Graduation and I saw one in an advertisement this week. It's pretty spectacular. So I drove an hour this morning to the store and found out they didn't carry that style. *stare* I was incredibly pouty until Drew told me to go to Dillard's and look there for something. So I did and I found the exact same shirt from a different brand! I was stoked! Only problem - they only had a small and medium. *grin* Sooooo. I bought the medium. It.looks.amazing. It's so pretty. I need to find a picture. I'm that excited. It's skin tight right now but I have high hopes. *grin* Okay. It looks a bit like . Only it's red and has 3/4 sleeves and has a cowlneck. So. It's pretty much nothing like that but for the metal thing. *stare* I also saw a super red lace top at NY & Co. I'm thinking it needs me. That was a long story to say that I have a new clothing goal! I took the jeans off my curtainrod and tried them on. They fit. I'm pretty much getting used to this "wearing smaller clothes" thing. AND. I dug out an old pair of size 12 jeans that are really tight. They slide right on and I went to work in them. *asplodes* I came home and proceeded to try on almost everything in my closet and my sister's. There is one skirt I can't fit yet. Everything else is fair game! Even this hot little blue sheath my sister wore years ago. I never dreamed five pounds could make such a difference. I also got rid of my "fat" pants for good. *nod* I don't need those around anymore.

[/ramble]

I went off there. I'm bored and lonely. *grin* I'm waiting for Hero to get home from small group. I'm so sleepy! I'm in bed soon, I think.

LOOK AT MY LITTLE BUTTERFLY FLY!

 

[Ohappydaye]

*OHD breaks out her pom poms and shakes 'em like mad* Way to go girl! Looking good, looking good indeed!

Also glad things went well with your parents.

...you keep this up and I'll need new pom poms soon!

Second Sunday evening I had off and the Boy is not home. *big pout* I was not prepared to be alone all day....so. Hm. I have wasted several hours "relaxing" and now I am pretty restless. I should dye my hair. Poutpoutpout. This morning sermon was on being thankful. I am not being very thankful, I supposed. *gigglingpout* FINE. I am thankful Boy has friends. *stare* I am thankful that I lost three pounds this week! I am thankful that I am about to drive twenty minutes to buy hair dye. Yes. It is that bad.

Yay!

 

[i wear his ring]

I am now a beautiful shade of Sable Cove. *wiggle* I'm excited. I hope this doesn't fade so fast. Black is the best color for not fading....I will go back to that someday. *sigh* I tried to get some pictures today but they are all on the desktop. I will transfer when I can do so and post some! Yes.

Everything.is.better. My Hero called and we talked for a long time. Sometimes I feel like a kid with him. We are doing everything for the first time by ourselves. Figuring stuff out and discussing and learning and growing. It's fun. And weird. But he's so wonderful. I love him. *soft smile* He says he likes whatever color dye makes me happy. *dances*

I didn't work out today. *gasp* I guess I'm averaging 5 days a week. *grin* I didn't eat bad though. I haven't had dinner yet. Eek. I need to get on that. I have SO much work to do tomorrow. That project...hrm. I need to get dressed and go pick up my parents. <s>dramadramadrama.</s> As soon as I get home we're going to bed. I'm excited about that. And my hair is dark again! Yay!

 

[i wear his ring]

Sable Cove is really black. *stare* I guess I went back faster than I thought!

At the end of this week I am going to weigh the same as my Hero. I have decided. Yay!

 

[i wear his ring]

Meaningless post for me. Yay! I just did Advanced Tae Bo and biked a bit. Shower. Put up wet hair. Moved most furniture out of my room. Ate peanut butter sandwich. I love extra crunchy peanut butter. My Hero sent me a package today. I am SO excited. His packages are always amazing. I only know one thing that's in it - an adorable stuffed animal. Yay for amazing boyfriends! *content* I need to go to work now. I have been good with my eating, I think. I'm going to weigh the same as Drew at the end of the week! I already said that! I'm 'cited.

 

[i wear his ring]

Okay. I told Hero I needed to talk to him for awhile about some short-term goals or nutrition or whatever...I just need to get all spiked up again. I dunno. I don't think I'm doing so great. I stopped counting calories for a few days which messes me up. So I'm doing that again today and I shouldn't stop. Starting on Saturday I'm going to pretty much have "company" in the house until January. I have GOT to keep up with what I'm doing here.

Advanced Tae Bo
615 calories so far
Water water water

Tonight I will trytrytry to run. I'm supposed to finish a painting project before Saturday so I may have to do that. A friend was going to go out with me this afternoon...I dunno. This is probably a bad day to try to make a friend. *smallsmile*

On a goodish note. I wear my black pants when I want to. I wore a fitted sweater today and looked pretty fab. I feel a lot better. Well. I do on the days I do really well! I should keep that up.
