hi girls :) thanks for stopping by. Emerald, I had a recese cup, lol...ah well.

Anyways, today is day three that i've been comitted to the diet. I'm not starting off great, but i have lost 1 lb so maybe i'm doing better than i thought. After all, i can't expect to be at 1400 right off the bat, right?

I also really wanna get working that exercise bike!
 
it has been 3 days, why haven't you used the bike already :)

Do i need to get the whip out :D
 
lol!!! No!! no whip!! See, I actually do have a good excuse. I've somehow gotten thrown into housecleaning mode. I think i might have posted a few dys ago about how we took our queen sized bed and all that upstairs and brought down my daughters bed and her desk...phew, it just about killed me! Worked on that for a full 3 hrs!

Today I went upstairs to clean out closets and help my youngest to get her room under control and was up there a minimum of 3 hrs today...so i'm def. getting in exercise though :)
 
SOrry guys, I"m just not too good at keeping up my diary, lol :)

Thing are going great here! I've lost 4 lbs this week...I still havn't gotten on the bike I promised my husband I'd use and I feel awful for it! I HAVE to make myself do it!!
 
well done on the 4lb loss, now jump on that bike even if it is only for 5 or 10 minutes, once you start you may then feel like going for longer :)
 
Just wanted to let you know I did a full 20 minutes on the bike today...at one point I was up to 18mph for a while. my ass is killing me but it was worth it :D
 
Great effort :)

if your stationary bike seat is the same as a normal bike you might want to get a gel seat cover to help with the sore ass.
 
THanks HJ!!

So my scale quit working today!! GRRR!!! **throws it out the window** Might be till friday that I can buy another one.

Last week I lost 5 lbs, and I"m stoked about that!! Ran out of my diet staple....honeycrisp apples, so I have to get some more today....I love those things!!! I've decided to "schedule" my workout, like alot of people suggest. So I'm going to jump on the bike when I watch my favorite 9 or 10 oclock show and do it then....i think it'll be great to est. a routine.

That's really great, well done! Good idea with the exercise, I could do with adding something more intensive to my own routine on a daily basis, I'm walking 5+ miles a day which is all well and good but alas it is still walking, could do with upping the ante with some cycling etc like you are.

I came by to say hi! So funny you mentioned honeycrisp apples because I LOVE THOSE TOO! I was never a big apple eater but those I can eat every day. I stopped finding them at regular stores though and had to go to a produce store called Green farms near here. It's a great store though...peaceful inside and great prices :) I actually like shopping there. Wow there's a concept....what if companies like walmart did stuff to make their stores less of a rat race and more peaceful and zen so people didn't hate going? lol

Good luck with your exercise plans. I'm about to do some research and start something myself, not sure what though. I just know that I want to feel better and I think it's the key.

I LOVE Honeycrisp! After growing up a little and becoming more mature, Gala and I broke up on mutual grounds. I soon developed a huge crush on Pink Ladies.:blush5: That lasted a while but then I met Honeycrisp. It was love at first bite. We've been together ever since.:beating:
 
Hi All!!!

So I guess we survived the "greatest storm in 10 yrs" lol The weatherman never ceases to amaze me as to how overly dramatic they are. I swear they are tied in with the gov't. Making things seem worse than they are gonna be so everyone stocks up on food and supplies, lol Maybe I'm the crazy one? lol

ANYWHO....feeling really bummed right now. My husband and I were doing well on our diet for 2 wks and I lost 5lbs. BUT this past week has been terriable with the weather and such, and hubby wanted to keep "stuff that didnt' need refrigerated or cooked" in the house incase the power went out. Which was basically junk food. SO this past week, i've gained....yes, all 5 freaking pounds back!! HOLY CRAP!!!

Swimsuit season will be here soooo soon and I promised my kids I'd swim with them, which means I wanted to lose a good 40 lbs by then. Do you guys think I still have time??
 
Hey Korrie! =)

When is swimsuit season? It's still pretty cold here and it won't start to get warm until late May/early June. If it's the same for you, that gives you almost 4 months. If you averaged 10lbs a month, it's totally feasible but you'd have to be really diligent, which from your journal (helloooo losing 5lbs a week) I can tell you are.

If anything, just work your butt off and lose whatever you can. It's always better than gaining, right??
 
Hey guys, sorry i havn't been on here for a while!

This past 2.5 wks have been hell for me! I started off with the flu, was so sick for a few dys...then after a while it became obvious that something else was wrong. I started having coughing fits so bad that i could hardly catch my breath...along with still having high fever and the chills. I finally broke down and went to the ER (which I HATE doing) and I found out I had pneumonia!!

They kept me in the hosp. for a day and a half, it was miserable!! PLUS the one whole day I was there, was on my 9th anniversary! But my husband really stepped up and was a huge help to me!!

The good news is that I lost 8lbs from being sick, lol Hey, gotta look for the sunshine in every situation, right?? lol

I still have a touch of pnuemonia and even doign little things takes it out of me. I've been fighting off getting deppressed b/c of it. The dct said it'll take weeks to completly get it out of my system. GREAT!
