Seriously Cita, I think it's our age girlfriend, and the fact that we spilled out a few kids and well, our bodies are never going to look like we were 15 years ago that's for sure. I've settled my thoughts to thinking that healthy feeling, is better than anything. And I'm feeling so much better.

This made me laugh, but I agree. To my credit, I'm not at that stage of life yet but I'm hoping and praying that I continue with my habits and I really REALLY want to stay slim into my later years. I love hearing about all my WLF friends getting back into shape, feeling good, taking care of themselves. I just don't want to get into negative habits of not exercising and eating junk (and ahem....drinking excessively ;) ) with age, because I'm on the right track right now! I know children can eff it up!! LOL!! But I see some women running with their baboes in a stroller and I think, "I want to be THAT woman when I have a kid." But sometimes life just makes it hard to stay slim. For example, the paryting over the summer and the heartache with teh BF made it difficult to stay under 140...I AM grateful that this time last year, I was 152-158, vacillating, so I've made it this far and I'm still truckin! Back to YOU: I am so glad you feel better and when I hear about you working out for HOURS I'm amazed. But Girlfriend, you have GOT to get hypnotized into liking weight training, I swear it would make you smoking hot!!

I was looking pretty good just 4 years ago at age 35, but of course that was pre-baby.

JEEBUS, You're 39?!?!!? :eek2: Kim, tell her she's looking "pretty good" right NOW!!

Miss Ladybug said:
Maybe I'll head over tomorrow to my girlfriends for some down time and wine drinking, that might help lift me up a bit, it always does. :)

Oh yeah, Baby. Too bad I'm a heavyweight champ. With time away, I'll get to be a lightweight ;)

Miss Ladybug said:
YEAH I hope it doesn't take another 2 months to lose another 2-3 pounds my gosh, that's just crazy!!

YOU'RE TICKER ROCKS!!!!:eek:
My curt advice for faster weight loss: less simple carbs, more protein, more weight training. Period. Just like mine is "less drinking, less cookie-ice cream sandwiches, less chocolate." ;)
 
i'm so happy to see your ticker moving. hopefully mine will too soon :D

anyway, just wanted to pop my head in and see how you're doing these days? how's working out and all?
 
VBF you crack my ass up!!! I'm trying to do the weights TRUST ME!! I did some yesterday at the gym, after I rode on the elliptical for 30 minutes, not sure how far I went on that thing it said I burned 420 calories, I must have rocked it I guess. I get in my own world sometimes and just run away, while listening to "Disturbed" on my IPOD. hahahahaha. I worked my upper body, then went to 1 hour of group groove. Tonight, I'm going to work weights again, then MAYBE group Centergy, it starts a little late so I might change my mind. Maybe, I'll just do the bike after weights, not sure it all depends on my mood once I get my butt there. I have so much work to do today, I'm looking at my desk and going "OMG" :eek2: I'm so looking forward to this 3 day weekend coming up, and I know most of you on here are as well. I just wish we would have been able to book that house boat, DAMN IT!! Now what to do?? If I stay at the house, I'll likely want to clean, and who the hell needs to do that on a 3 day vacation. NOBODY!! Well, maybe we can still book a condo on Grand Lake, it's only 40 minutes away and I guess we can rent a boat for the weekend. MONEY, MONEY, MONEY everyone wants some right. Well, if we use our timeshare points we won't have to pay for the condo, IF it's available. But the boat, oH yeah, we will need to shell out, but who cares, it's something to do, outside while the weather is still nice. Well, I better get going, I need to get very busy and quickly. I hope you all have a good day today.
Kim
 
MONEY.....is the root of all evil. No wait, the desire for money is the root....or the lack of miney is the root...lol I dunno. *wishes Kim houseboat* Fingers crossed!! Oh my gosh poor Korrie's house flooded and her parents' too AND her brothers' and her parents have to live with her....sorry for sharing but it really struck me today :(

ANyway, have a great day!
 
Hi Kim. Sorry the house boat didn't work out. But I'm sure you'll cook up something fun to do. Have a great day.
 
Oh gosh, Kim...we had to rent our houseboat for Lake Shasta a year in advance!!!! Unless there are cancellations...have you checked? But a condo would be nice....just relaxing.

We're having a big ole BBQ bash to celebrate the end of summer on Saturday and then hit the beach and some R&R for the balance of the weekend....

hope you can find somewhere to stay.... :)
 
Kim
Hope you get to stay at the condo. Sounds beautiful. Never been on a houseboat, can only imagine how cool that would be.
My 3 day weekend will consist of work. Recieving in and shipping out all those billions and billions of hotdogs people eat every year!
Trust me I don't eat them!!! After stacking the 30# boxes from floor to above me head for 2 1/2 years I would be happy to never ever see another hotdog again. Or ice cream for that matter. It's heavy and COLD in the freezer. Brrrrrrr! hahaha

I'm starting my ab roller regime Wednesday morning. Hoping to do about 40 reps if I don't die first!!! :rofl: Then maybe another 30-40 before I go to bed. See ya there!
Keep the Pace!!!

OMG Kim! Your diary is VERY HELPFUL! I always lose track of holidays, and I had no idea til I read your diary that monday's a holiday. AWESOME! Unfortunately my car is still in the shop, though I should have it back soon, so no going anywhere for me. Plus money is tight all of a sudden. I used to be rolling in it and I dont know what the F happened lately! Its so important to spend our days doing fun activities outdoors with our loved ones, so I would highly encourage the boating, even if it sets back your credit card (you're a financial planner right? so you'll figure a way back out!). I just LOVE boating!
 
Cita- Yeah, we will figure out something, (Outdoors) On Saturday we are going to a cook out with our BF's, that is always super fun!! They are an outgoing couple like us, so we share a lot of the same ideas. As for the remainder of the weekend, only time will tell. If it's nice outside you know where I'll be. You know my hubby and I were given this gift card for a really nice restaurant over a year ago and we still haven't used it, it's worth 50.00 bucks so maybe we can go to dinner there on Sunday and make it a nice date night or something, who knows! I'm just really happy to be off of work for 3 days, and Friday we will close early, so that will add to the time off. YEAH!! Right now, I'm currently eating a Grilled chicken wrap, YUMMY! love them. For breakfast I had a bowl of mini wheats with 1% milk. I'll try and throw down a few bottles of water before I leave today, shouldn't be a problem. I have groove tonight and 5:30, then I'm coming home to ATTEMPT my fate at the AB ROLLER, this is something I promised Bell I would do since she's also doing it at her place. I hope I can move tomorrow. HAHHAHA Last night was such a great night, I went straight home from work and sliced up some carrots, and potatoes and through them in the crock pot after I took the roast out that I had cooked down all day, it was FABULOUS! Mmmm, You guys know I don't really eat red meat, but I did manage to eat some of that, it melted in my mouth, mmmmm. Needless to say, NO LEFTOVERS really. While the carrots and potatoes were cooking I went for a swim with one of my sons, ahhhhh that was so very nice, he's such a sweetheart, we got to talk and that is always nice, since we all know teenagers usually avoid us adults like the plague. I'm proud of my sons, they are just the best. We swam until just about dark, then came in and had dinner. It was so relaxing, yet I felt like I got in a little exercise. I watched Tori & Dean Inn Love, then went to bed. The bad part is I started watching this stupid movie called the Astronauts wife and well, I'm such a Johnny Depp fan I got stuck on it and couldn't shut the damn tv off, so by the time I did it was after midnight. I tell you what 6:30 comes real fast when you fall asleep at 1 am. HAHAHAHAH But, I'm feeling alright, so I'm not going to complain. Well, I better get rolling I need to finish up the rest of this wrap and get my work done. I hope you all have a wonderful day today! :doh: :jump:
Kim
 
Yeah, it has Cherlize Theron in it, you know the guys just drool over her. It's pretty good, it has the mystery thing about it. She's finding out slowly that he's been taken over by something, but he gets her pregnant with twins, and well so on and so on. I think Johnny Depp is a superior young actor and I love all his movies!. I just love movies PERIOD! Actually speaking of Cherlize, we own her movie called "Aeon Flux" it's pretty darn good too, plus she worked her ass off for the part, she was in excellent shape for that movie, based on a comic I think. Have you seen it?
 
Wow, sounds like you're having a great time. Your food sounds totally YUMMY :) I like Johnny Depp too though I haven't seen Astronaut's Wife... *adds that to list of must-see movies*

Have a fun workout tonight!
 
Well, let's see I went to the gym last night did my 1 hour of group groove, so much fun!! I went home and had dinner with the family, and then my hubby went out on the deck about 9:30 and lit the Tiki Torches, and asked me if I wanted to come outside and hang out with him, "well of course" I said and we spent about 45 minutes out there relaxing, talking and enjoying the wonderful weather. My son came out for about 20 minutes and joined us, his girlfriend had just left and well he was real chatty. LOL LOL At around 10:30 I headed off to bed, but....... I then realized I promised a very wonderful person on this website that I would use the "AB ROLLER" and see if I can lose anything attempting to mangle what upper body strength I had left, "OMG"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I ever so nicely ask my rock hard ab husband to come show me how to work that damn thing correctly, so I didn't pull something. He kindly obliged and came out of bed and down to the floor with me. Okay, remember this is the guy who bought this contraption several years back, he is already a PRO using it, so I felt like a complete FOOL, when he ever so easy grabbed that thing, and worked his way almost flat to the floor after stretching out with that roller about 2 feet, I was in AHHHHH, and at the same time I was thinking, HOW THE HELL am I going to get that little roller thing to first get me from the knee position to a almost full plank, then back up again. I honestly wanted to cry, because I knew this was going to be a huge feat for me to overcome. Well, on my first attempt I nearly fell to the floor, the second well I got to the floor, but had a hell of a time getting back up, and on the 3rd, I thought to myself, I rarely baulk on anything, but I might have to tell Bell on WLF I'm a wooosey and this thing is hard as hell. But....... I didn't, I grabbed that damn thing again, and went for it!!! I did 15, then collapsed on the floor. If my abs don't tighten after a month of using this thing, I'm going to go my husband and smack him!! He said it is the hardest butt busting ab workout he's ever done, and it shaped his abs in NO TIME. Uh Huh, sure, that's what they all say right. Well, needless to say I had sweat dripping down my back by the time I was done, I couldn't believe it. Me, the CARDIO queen, has the worst abs in America. But, I'm not giving in, I'm going to do it, at least for a month, every night. Let's just see if this damn thing works. Well, that's it for now and all my winy ass bitching. I'll have to go visit some diary's. I'll chat at you all later!!
Kim
this is what the ab roller looks like, can you imagine???
 
You are hardcore woman! Looking forward to hearing about the results in a month. I'm sure this will tighten things in your midsection. You're so damn devoted to get on the flloor at that hour to work your abs. Absolute dedication!

Dedicated??? Ummmmm, More like IDIOTIC!!!!! LOL LOL I was so tired Cita you have no idea, but guilt set in and I knew I promised Bell on here I would start yesterday, and when I promise somebody, I NEVER go back on it. But, tonight I'll probably swear the entire time I'm using it. It's going to be one of those LOVE HATE relationships I'm afraid. I'll HATE it now, but hopefully in a month I'll have learned to LOVE it. Only time will tell. LOL LOL

Oh my Kim you got me laughing when I read about your experiance with ab roller.
It is so much harder than it looks isn't it? Just knowing that you aren't going to quit at it has me keeping up on it. Cuz trust me on a whole I don't usually cuss but I'm right there with you! LOL LOL
But in 1 month you will see a difference. I promise.
Have a great weekend. Hope you get to go out on that boat. Think of me when your out in the sunshine. I'll be freezing my big ol'buns off. LOL LOL
At least I get Monday off. I'm hoping Sweatpea will get together for the holiday.
Talk to you later!!!!
Enjoy your weekend.
 
Well it's Friday, HALLELUJAH!!!! I'm so ready for the weekend, you don't even know! Last night I did my group groove class, then came home and ate a very light snack, as I was soooooooo tired I could have fell asleep in the chair. But, as life goes my hubby wanted to sit outside again last night and enjoy some down time, and I joined him. But, I was still so exhausted. We went back in after maybe 40 minutes and I told "D" I was going to hit the ab roller, oh my word!! I did about 15 again, my last night it was so much harder, my abs were still sore from the night before, and I was in pain. I sure hope this gets easier soon, or at least less painful, because I don't know how much longer I can stand it. I look like a complete fool trying to do it too, so I bet that's funny to watch. LOL LMAO! :rotflmao::jump: Well, Im getting off work early, OH YEAH! I hope you all have a wonderful weekend and Labor Day! I doubt I'll be on again until Tuesday, REST UP EVERYONE!!
Kim
 
Sorry you were so tired--that's great you sucked it up and used the damn thing anyway--you'll be using it in your sleep soon enough! :rotflmao:

Thanks so much for your support in my diary--I'm so busy, a friend called me last night crying because her son had to go back to Riverside (8 hour drive from here) with the Daddy and I had to comfort her.....what a night! You have a great Labor Day weekend too!
--VBF :beerchug:
 
LOL maybe I'm weird but I LOVE it when my muscles hurt after exercise :confused: It feels like they've been working hard, and I get all proud and everything. So you should be proud of yourself :)

Hope you have a great Labor Day!
