Thanks for stopping by and sending lots of encouragement girls!
I went MIA again, not purposely though of course. I can't stand being so busy, it's starting to drive me nuts. I'm constantly watching my niece, going out with friends, spending time with family and working around the house.
That dreaded once a month time is here now. ick. So I'm finding it hard to work out because just getting out of bed is a chore. I always gain weight during this time so I'm up to 195... the scale will go down soon though.
I'm beastly tired so I'll try and respond to everyone tomorrow. I've gotta babysit the little one almost all day so I'll try and hop on when she's napping.
lots of love to you ladies
xoxo

Second family love=amazing. I used to do the same too, when things got too crazy around my house I'd run down the street to my other "house". :] 20 lbs can't come soon enough! Thanks bella!

Hey Elle, Your so right on thinking men should get some sort of tom. i mean we have to do with tom, child bearing, pretty much raising the child or children then the after effects of that too... men get off so easy other then having to deal with us in our moods.. lol My husband always said when i was preggo that I was more of a bitch then anything to him but I told him if he had to deal with have of the stuff we go through then he would be a bitch too.. lol He just laughed at me and said yeah your probably right, hunny... lol
anyways keep up the great work and I know one of these days both of us with be looking damn hot in our biniki's... lol can't wait to just get down to a size 18/20 in pants but that will come hopefully soon. Talk to you soon.

Hey Elle Girl~
Been missing you lately. I can so relate on the being busy thing. I love having my laid back life an doing things in my time not someone else's.
Right now MIL is here and I feel like all I do is drive her around everywhere.
I am so tired of going here and there.
Two more weeks to go though so whatcha gonna do, right?
Just muster thru and things will get back on track soon.
Talk to you later and keep up the good work.

So apparently I haven't been on here in a stupid long time. :[ I'm sorry. I feel bad not being able to support you all, I'm barely able to get a half hour shower in as it is though. So online is really the last on my list of things to do. I hate my schedule being packed. It's really annoying sometimes. I've been busy with work (I do contracting work, and work at a local nursing home per diem), babysitting my niece a ton because my sister's hours got raised, doing a ton of home repairs on my house, and I've been trying to spend more time with the family.
Things on the weight loss front are kinda shaky I guess. Tom visited so I gained and then I was on another plateau at 194. ick. This morning I went down to 192.5 though. Felt nice to finally hit the 20 lb mark.
I've been having a loooooooot of problems with number two. lol. I'm only going about once every 7 days. It's getting really annoying so I think I'm going to have to pick up some dulcolax and take a half every night or something just to keep me regular because I can't take this anymore.
ummmmmm yeah, that's all I can say right now. I need to get some sleep because I have to finish fixing the cupboards and paint them tomorrow. uggggggh. I'll make it on here and see how you're all doing probably like saturday. I miss you all and hope you're all doing well.

Congrats on the 20lbs!!! WooHoo!
Hey, we understand that you're busy with life. Don't fret it.
As to the #2 problem, I would get some benefiber and start putting it in your water a few times a day. That will really help. Also, try eating more fruits and veggies. And, there are some whole grain breads out there that have 6-7g of fiber per slice. Aunt Millie's makes a few of them. You should be getting about 25-35g of fiber per day. If you do, everything will come out just fine..lol

Elle,
If you want support here you need to give some too. You need to cut your calories...there is no excuse for this plateau, I'm sorry to be harsh, but I'm trying to give you some tough love. I want you to lose it, but you have to want to, and you need to cut calories. You have to come here every day and remember your goal and really WORK for it - just like you have to work for everything else you really want in life you need to work for it. It won't be easy, so you'll feel really good when you finally reach your goal.

Maybe your just joking or something or maybe you really do think your post is out of love ..............if not then your response is just plain rude.
Elle has been on here all the time in the past 2 months. Giving support to all kinds of people all the time. I happen to be one of them. She was the 1st person on her to welcome me to the forum and to encourage me when I wasn't doing well. It's only been in the last 2 weeks that things have gotten busy for her. And to not even give her kudos for her 20 pound lose but slam her for NOT trying is way out of line.
Just sticking up for my peep. So if you think I am outta line sorry, but I am not going to let you treat her that way. It doesn't take much for a person to get discouraged and your post would not by any means be considered an encouragment.
Elle you know I think you rock and that is so flippin awesome that you hit your 20 pound mark.
YOU GO GIRL!!!

Sorry didn't mean to be rude - I just know sometimes I need someone to give me a kick to get me back on track. I know you can do it Elle!
I'm glad you chose to back peddle on that one, because Elle's been here for 2 months and has been doing exceptional. (Like bellaryna said) Besides, Elle's our babygirl of the group and we don't allow people to fuck with her. Enjoy your day.
