wow horse riding sounds like fun, does it burn many calories?

Good on you for not crying when you got called names. My girls still have one girl at school who laughs at them saying 'your mum is fat' even when im clearly not. The stupid thing is that HER mum is massive, as big as i was! They are good about it though and very happy!

Dont stress about the Principal, clearly you have something in common with her!

Riding is a great way to burn calories... if you do it right. English takes a lot of legwork, back work, and focus. Western is usually the kind for beginners but if you haven't done it a lot, you'll definately burn cals. And it's fun, and the horses are pretty!!!
 
no change this week in the weight part. man..its fun though. I'm eating better, exercising more, and feeling better about myself. I do need to take measurements though because the scale hasn't moved... BUT I saw myself in a picture...and my legs are getting skinny!!! I was actually shocked at how I looked! made me feel good! :D
 
good going on those positives... that's what counts...

Do A, B and C - andthe rest will follow :)

IF you're feeling good- -you can't ask for more than that :)

get to go trail riding once the weather clears
am in a singing contest
and have lost someweight

...

it's a good day. :D
 
Hey awesome on joining weight watchers - that is great plus it is expensive - good incentive!!!Im not sur ehow I would feel about my principle being there either - it would be kinda weird I think - h ah aha...good stuff on the riding and the summer job lined up:)

I wanted to drop by my teams diaries - especially since we have made it into the individual phases...

Congradulations:)
 
well still going strong! I had oatmeal again for breakfast. it was yummy. Plus I did a lot of calorie burning at the barn yesterday when we hurried to put the horses out, and then it downpoured and we all ran around the 18 acres to get them all back in before their blankets got soaked!
 
well, i went to weight watchers again last night. it was fun. I also weighed in 6lbs lighter! lol. I wore lighter clothing then before, but still, I've lost weight.
 
ok. Well, haven't been doing so hot, but have gotten back on track.. have to, weigh in is on wednesday! :eek: I do hope that I'll have some loss, even if it is only a little bit. am working on toning my stomach and butt and arms every night now, hoping to see some inches go away because of it. *crosses fingers* have to be at 180 by June 18th... (I told them that I would weigh 180 because they need height and weight for gown fittings...so I really have to get on it! well, twenty pounds in four and a half months, should be able to do it easily enough with weightwatchers and riding and horses and everything. :D
 
um...don't really know. There are different packages. I think that it's like, 20 bucks a month or something like that, or you can do a big package and pay more... I think that you can find all the information on their website.

anyway, my mom got me the record book that I now keep in my purse along with the food guides and dining out food guide book thingy, and I'm writing everything down. I think that it will really help me stay on track, because a school friend and I are doing it together and we go to the meetings together and compare notes. She's about the same weight as I am and we have the same goals. Man, I am so ready to be able to wear skinny jeans! or actually, when I drop twenty more pounds I'm going to reward myself with a pair of nice breeches, and then after that, maybe another 15 down the road, I will buy a pair of nice tall field boots to go with it.

Did situps, leg press ups (lower abs) pushups and planks last night. Today I think that I'm going to clean my room, set up my yoga pad thingy and do more exercises. I have volleyball coaching tonight and will be burning cals doing that. it's fun.

Anyway, have a great day everyone!
 
Thanks. Have a great day doing yoga. I love yoga so much. Those exercises sound awesome too! Keep up the great work and great job with finding fitting rewards for yourself.
 
ok, so I forgot to mention that yesterday I did WAAAY too much chasing horses. we needed to get a lot of them exercised, so we turn them out into the arena and then (supposedly) we crack a whip and they run... well, the good ones do... the ones that are so used to it dont and you have to really chase them and throw the whip behind them, or even let it drop on their back to get them to go! All the horses know that we won't hit them, so they aren't afraid of the whips! Makes for a LOT of running in deep sand! It was only 38 degrees and I had to take off my coat! it was fun.

Had an apple, banana, two mozzerella sticks...and chicken with fries...not all of them either, gave some away. AND I resisted cause today is International free pancake day at IHOP and we went and I didn't get any! Probably will have some soup for dinner. Anyway, have a great day everyone!
 
had cereal for breakfast. it was yummy. am keeping track of everything that I eat in my little weight watchers book and it's helping me realize that I don't really eat that well, so I'm adding better foods to my house so that I can have better things to choose from.
 
well. Got called fat again in the same class as before...

I came This close *holds fingers a milimeter apart* from getting up and smacking that boy silly. didn't his mama teach him any manners? I hate that no one in this country has any manners anymore. Makes me angry. AND the teacher just stood there and didn't do anything, just like the last time. ooooooh... makes me angry. Bastards...sorry. had to rant.

Had soup for breakfast because it was cold. gonna go to the barn and make myself feel better with the pretty horsies today.
 
Tell me if you want me to delete this post... and I will.

But what a FUCKING ASSHOLE. I'd punch that dick-head in the face. That is my rant because that makes me so angry.I am mad just reading that. Good for you for restraining yourself from hitting him! I would've. Stupid teacher too.

SOrry. SEriously... tell me if you want it deleted.

Happy Valentine's Day. Don't let a jerk ruin it.
