Well everyone... I'm EXTREMELY excited to post this morning?! I know it's been a long time since I've been here... I mean..I'm on page 9! There's alot of new faces, and alot of old ones that are still here! Guess what guys?! Look at my fricken ticker! I.... have REACHED ONDERLAND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! w00t!!!!!!! Guys! ARGH I'm so freakin excited! Do you know that? HOLY CRAP I'm excited. I've been workin at it and crackin at it and I've been trying to break it down past it. I haven't been counting my calories, but I think I've gotten to the point where I know how to eat properly without getting stupid about it. I have 14.5 lbs to go until I re evaluate and see if I need to go lower (which I probably will...but I'm just excited that I"m almost to my first goal!!!). Well...I suppose that breaking 200 was really my first goal, which would make sense. I'm gonna have some pictures to accompany this post... some face shots, and some front and side comparisons. Just thought that everyone would like to know the update.

MTM&K was on Regland for nausea with pregnancy... Oh..btw...here's some pictures of the ultrasound: The picture of me was taken a while ago... just wait till you see the latest of me!!! w00t!!!

We found out that regland can cause severe depression...even after getting off the meds. So the Dr. took her off of it and she's on some herbal stuff a naturopath suggested and we're seeing if that works. We have another Dr.'s appt on the 20th and maybe he'll have something else to prescribe we hope.. But we are having a Boy and his arrival is due on August 13th!!!!

We moved to a new house (away from our catty B!+ch of a neighbor and our crazy landlord) and instead of being in a duplex, we are now in a 4 bedroom house for 25 bucks more than we were paying at the duplex which is a STEAL in this town! We're so excited... the kids can actually play in the backyard... they LOVE being outside! Ugh it's going to be a great day!
 
Awesome news SS!! Getting to one-derland is soo exciting!! Can't wait to see your updated pics. :)

Congrats on your boy; I love those ultrasound pics (up here, we don't get copies of them, I'm missing out :( ) MTM&K looks amazing and happy. :)

Thanks Dairy.... long time no see! Sorry I've been absent..things have been BUUUUUUSY... anyhoot...what have I missed? can you give me a recap? LOL... how's your journey going?
 
congrats on reaching one-derland and all the other big changes going on...

you've been busy :) but nice to see you reporting in..
 
I have no idea what's new; I'm the most unobservant person alive. :rolleyes: :p :D But my journey is okay; I was stuck on a plateau for 6 weeks, and have just started moving downward again, thanks to spring finally hitting.

I hit a plateau too for a bit...was so frustrating... I'll have the pictures up soon! I also wanted to introduce myself to the new people that joined since I last was in here alot... I'm saturdaysaint...and..um.. I'm an exerciseaholic! HA...okay...that was corny!
 
How lovely to see you again!

Congratulations on making it to onederland at last!!

I think, back and front, that last 14 pounds has made a heap of difference - and ... have you bulked up a bit, up top?

Your new boy is due on my son's birthday!!

I'm sorry to hear that MomtoM&K had more trouble to deal with. I hope she's set for some smooth sailing, late pregnancy time now. :)
 
*walks in with the balloons and confetti*

I hear we're having a Onederland party in here!!

*does the boogie*

Congratulations!

Hey Felici! It's good to see you too... Wow..I haven't been around in so long..didn't realize that you added your picture as your avatar! The last 14 lbs does show me sliming down... MTM&K mentioned how it my legs are getting SO slimmer. And yes...I have bulked up a bit up top. I do 100 pushups before bed and 50 sit ups. I guess...if I want my ab's to catch up, I should reverse those numbers huh? LOL... but yeah...I'm getting ALOT of definition to my arms and chest!

Hey Sirant! When I was at the 255-275, I actually DID photoshop the side picture... and It was close but WAY too blurry! I AM a photoshop wiz though ;). It's been a rough road though...and I'm SO glad that I'm here! And looking forward to the last 14 lbs! A Daddy to be proud of..that makes me smile!!!

Doesn't matter if you're a newbie chica! It's all good. I'm glad that I can be an inspiration (if I actually am one!) Welcome to the forums!

Does anyone have any suggestions on helping my stomach skin "unstretch"? I know that sounds gross but... yeah... Doing situps tightens it up UNDER the skin.... any suggestions?
 
Oh, so this is where you've been hiding.....IN ONEDERLAND!!!! YAHOOOO!!! Way to go Saint!!!! Awesome work, don't you feel great?? Glad the move was a good one. Hopefully your wife will start feeling better, it's been a rough few months for her I know.
 
Would you LOOK at those pictures???

SS - you have done an amazing job! Absolutely FANTASTIC!!

Thank you SO much M2M... it's been a struggle... but it's getting easier to make right decisions. Though..today...I snacked a bit much this morning (some cinnamon bread...mmmmm) from a baby shower MTM&K went to...and 2 bon bons... but they were SOOOO good... :eek: Anyway...I guess today was my "Cheat" day... back to the grind tomorrow! Time to cut my sons hair! HOpe everyone had a great weekend!
 
Mornin everyone! How is everyone doing today? Good I hope. not much to report this morning! Got up to exercise... I think it's time to switch dvd's to work out with. I mean..I still get a sweat going, but I guess I'm getting bored with it... any good suggestions? Was thinking about doing Tae Bo's boot camp..still not sure though...
 
No thoughts here. I just bring things home from the library and see if they fit! :D

Nice to see you posting though. I just love your siggie these days.
 
It's a nice number isn't it? I can't believe I'm back down here.... I was looking at pictures from my time at 255-275 time and... wow... I just... there were SO many things that were different with my lifestyle back then... I was slower, would lose my breathe easier, it was just terrible. Now...I find myself finding reasons to do physical activity! I remember when I started my journey, I couldn't do 2 minutes of Jumping Jacks... just such a change!

Now I need to start thinking about the tat's I want to get! I plan on getting 2 tattoos as a reward for reaching my goal! Good thing I'm in graphic design I guess! LOL
