Howdy Wishes,
Lol I rented "NIGHT AT THE MUSEUM" for my kids to well me as well,I seened a bad burned copy of it when it 1st came out and I liked the movie I knew my kids would to,I love Ben stiller and Robin williams anyway.
We also watched DEJAVU wow what a confusing ending lol of and the messengers a couple nights ago that was great to could of ended better tho.
Goodluck on getting your calories where you want them to be.Have a nice day Tammy
 
Wishes, I'm going to rent that movie next time around for sure! I love movies, when I'm watching with my hubby it's always action packed stuff, when I'm watching with my mom (when she comes over) it's always suspense or thrillers, and when I watch for myself it's always mushy crap, so I try to get in a good comedy whenever possible. Plus I LOVE Robin Williams, he's hands down one of my favorite actors of all time. Did you see Man of the Year with him?? FUNNY!!! He's got another one coming out here soon too, can't wait to see it. I think your doing such an awesome job, and it's really inspiring for all of us here to know that somebody has done it, the right way, eating and working out. That's a huge accomplishment, I'm just in awwww every time I see your avatar! Have a good day today

yeah movies are good, Ben stiller and robin and all the other guys rocked big time on that movie :D

Today i didnt have breaky till 11am - work machine was blown up/overheated when i got to work and i spent hours fixing it.
I got hungry and eventually went to have breaky and didint realize it was so late (remembering i get up at 6am). I did have a piece of bread before i left home at least .. though thats unusual .. i normally have breaky at work at my desk. .. means i can sleep in a little longer :D
 
Ooooh movies! I wana get Shrek 3 when it's out.... tot it's a funny cartoon. Watched Nite at the Museum twice. Yep it's really funny!

work machine meaning pc? u fixed it by yourself? That's someting!
I've breaky in office too. Cos I dun stock food up at home lol. It's too dangerous! Ha....

You have a fantastic day Liz! :)
 
Yep i mean my work PC. See im a computer geek, i can fix pretty much anything when it comes to computers.

I got home with my old work laptop hdd and shoved it into an old laptop i had floating about here. Partitioned it into 5 partitions, then ran a software raid array over it.
1 40gb dead hdd is now a perfectly working 8gb hard drive :D
now thats geeky fun! :D
 
Good for you! I just hope I'd be able to do that too.. I have 1 dead laptop, 1 weird acting PC and all kinds of bits and pieces from this and that, but it would take a LOT of dedication to first learn what's what to be able to use them. I think they should teach that to musicians as well, but no... :rolleyes:

wow, today is the day. 1 year exactly since the start of this journey.

Ive lost 1lb every 3 days approximatly in the last year (averaged out here)
On 12th June 2006 i ate 853 calories for the day. on the 13th I ate 742 .. then i realized what BMI was (I thought if i ate 800 and used 900 that was 100 difference ... heh yeah ok i learnt something since then!)
In the last year i have gone from a size 26 to a size 12.
I have gone from being unfit and inhealthy to being super fit and super healthy (but still not quiet skinny, but im darned close!)

Ive lost about 44% of my original weight of which most would be fat. I was going for 50%, but 44% is pretty good!

I can now take the stairs in our house 3 at a time and not get winded

I can fit in the bath and not overflow it.

I can fit in public toilets without having one ass cheek up the wall or on the sanitary bin :)

My seat at work no longer groans and squeeks and pisses people off (i think thats a downside actually .. lol)

I can run and play with my kids ... hell i can beat them in a race! :D

I can fit in my van with the seatbelt on easily .. in fact ive been known to forget ive lost weight and throw myself in with a little too much force and end up almost in the passenger seat :/

I can now cycle for 90-100km, before i used to struggle with the 6km to work .. it took me nearly an hour (could have walked faster i think lol)

I can now share the sofa with my husband, ... and the bed .. WITHOUT taking all the blankets :)
In fact, my husband can now pick me up and carry me! (though to be honest, he does struggle lol...bloody weakling!)

I can buy clothes off the rack and know they will fit me.

I can safely say that i know of at least 4 people in real life who have used me as inspiration and lost weight themselves. and numerous people online (couldnt even count). And all those people worked their asses off and deserve more credit than i do for that.

ive noticed that my co-workers treat me differently now, some who were antagonistic are now much nicer than they used to be ... typical guy eh :)

I can still eat junk food, so long as i eat it in moderation, and i understand now what that word means too!

My husband has lost 10kg since ive been on this diet, and hes happy to loose his pot belly :D

I no longer have a foot problem from being too heavy.

I now know lots of recipes that dont have meat, cheese, fat, etc in them! in fact i even know some vegetarian ones and i love them ! :D

I can think of millions more cool things from the last year, but now im getting teary etc. and im at work so i better go do some :)
 
What and incredible, inspiring list of accomplishments. Your whole family must be beaming with pride, most of all you. WOW!
 
What a terrific anniversary. I think I'll pose a list like that myself in 5 days when I hit my mark. That new avatar says it all--best wishes Wishes!
 
Great List Wishes!

I must say, you are a hell of a gal and your list is amazing!

You are a huge inspiration to us all!

And I gotta say, I LOVE the avatar!!!

The skinny pose is great and makes me think of the old wonder woman show on tv.....

Hands up everyone who thinks wishes should put on tights, metal wristbands and a bullet proof bra!!!!!!
Me! Me! Me! Me! Me!!!!!!!!!!!

You are definitetly a wonder woman in my eyes!!

sirant
 
Congratulations on your anniversary!
I've said this before and I'll say this again: You Are Wonderful!
Julie
PS. I raise my hand. I don't usually go for that sort of thing, but I'll make an exception for anybody that hot... :p
 
Oh wishes I love your list. Your strength and courage has been wonderful to see. What a fantastic year!!!

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY WISHES !!!!!!!!!!
 
Congrats to you Wishes.

I've been reading the end pieces of your diary and you are so inspiring. I'm gonna start from the beginning here soon.

I loved your Aniversary post.

Keep up the good work. You look fabulous!
 
sorry i havnt been on here much, my computer is undergoing reinstall and moving to a new machine etc.
Between that and work and exercise and 4 kids etc im not having time for anything!

Im only posting now on one screen (normally i have 2) whilst waitint for hubby to get home with the cd.
 
Cheers everyone for the warm wishes! :D
Since wishes is a tad cold ... its winter over here! i had to buy some boots! ($5). Im also a tad broke since i had to spend like $300 on docs and dentist last week :/
 
heh... it's so cute seeing your AV change simultaneously in the 2 posts.

does winter speed up the process of weightloss? heh. no winter over my side....forever and ever and ever.

hope u settle your machine soon!:)
 
You know I never knew whether you called these months winter down there, or whether your "summers" were just cold and your "winters" warm. Guess I finally found out. :)
