Hey ladies,
Jealous of all of you whose kids go back to school today. Ds goes back on Monday. He's been such a trooper with all the work we've been doing at the new house. I feel like he's had a lousy break. He's hooking up with a friend on Friday, thank goodness, and they'll be out for the day, but he's done nothing buy play his ds while we work. Poor guy.
He did get to paint his bedroom yesterday though I had to do alot of touch up, but I figure it's his room, right.

Didn't get to exercise yesterday. I think I may have to officially start my challenge on Monday when everyone goes back to work/school. We're literally at the house from dawn to dusk. We're leaving in a few to go paint more. I got 2 bedrooms done on my own yesterday, while dh "rested". Don't get me started on that...it was better to have his cranky ass somewhere else, away from me, so I let him stay home. We have the master, the office, the LR/DR/FR still to do, oh yeah, and the hallway. He thinks we're gonna get this all done today, lol. He has no idea.

So, I'm officially going to start the exercise portion of my challenge on Monday...sooner if we're done painting earlier in the weekend.

Good to see everyone renewed for the new year. Starting over is a good thing. Got to see the finale of the biggest loser last season, but didn't make it to the new one. It certainly is a motivator.

Gotta run...peace out!
Sue

Well girls it is a new year and a new me is on the way. I am going to go back to weight watchers tonight and re join and get all the books from the start and start all over and stick to this. I even have my husband and kids doing it too. I went and bought 200.00 worth of groceries. Healthy things only no little debbie's or junk food. I am going to do this and we are going to do this as a team. I bought a min trampoline and have a gazelle and plan on going to the gym twice a week. I am going to come up with some things to do to keep active. Please help me keep motivated......


XAN: I will see you tonight. I hope you are ready because you are going to have some tough competition. haha Thanks for the buddy note. We had a wonderful christmas and I hope you did also.

EVERYONE ELSE: have a good day and stay warm.

I forgot to ask if you all watched the new biggest loser. I get alot of motivation from watching it and I think the divorced couple will do great. I am rooting for them. They are so cute together. have a good day. Angie

Good Morning ladies. I am hating the scale this morning. It says that I am up 4 lbs....I know its just water retention, but jeez...4 lbs. Needless to say that I will be spending lots of time in the bathroom today because I am going to drink tons of water.

Oops...gotta go. Realtor just called and someone wants to see the house. Moving into high gear to make sure things are clean. Be back later.

Angie, I will be there. I am thinking about asking some of the teachers if they want to do a BL at work. I love that show. I like the ex-es and also the mother/son team. I HATED that the dad did that to his daughter last night. What an ass. She really wanted to stay... I guess she should have lost more though. He was such a jerk throwing "only 7 pounds" in her face though. LOL I need a life! LOL
Barb: I think a juicer would be pretty cool!
Sue: I bet you are getting so many AP's right now just working on the house! Hope Dev enjoys the rest of his break!
Liz: Enjoy your dvd's when they get there!
Erin: this is going to be great that we are all going at the same time again!
Have a great day girls!

ok....I reallllllllllllllly do not want to be here.

I just had my lunch like a good girl though.....LC pizza, huge salad and now an orange. I am also on ounce 64 of water.

As soon as I walk in the door to my house today, I will go up and change into workout clothes and am doing my workout. Thats it, no excuses.

I am jealous of you girls in Eunice that get to go to a meeting tonight!

Crap...I love biggest loser, didn't realize it had started already!

Barb...I've got that cookbook, that was part of my motivation for asking for the food processor...lol...great minds think alike!

Jen...We only got a few inches, and it's sunny and nice, but friggin freezing!

Liz...Love Turbo Jam, I haven't done it in so long...

Erin..winning pts is the ww program before they introduced the flex points, same concept, but you got a point range for the day, like 20-25 pts, and no flex pts...i just seem to give myself permission to blow it when i have 35 points staring at me for the week. going old school!

I thought about my dad when I watched the way he did his daughter. I dont see my dad trying either. I thought he made her feel bad when he said she was the only girl that did not loose the most weight and you could tell she was pissed when he said that. I wish them well and maybe they will stick to it. I would like to see them in 6 months being the size they want to be. I bet they will do well.
XAN: I heard that Chad Patterson is doing some training with some people in town. Kim said she seen Kim Smith and she has lost alot of weight. He is training her. I also heard that he and a friend are trying to open a gym somewhere. That would be GREAT!!!!!!!

Whatever happened to you and doing that?

Alright......I have got to bitch and moan yet again about work.

One of the new salesmen quit last week......so one of the oldtimers here says "see it's hard to replace..sososo" Well I can tell you why he quit...because they do things sooooo f'ed up around here thinking it is still friggin 1975!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!! Oh I am sooooooooooooooo frustrated with this place it is unreal.

Oh Angie, I can't see your dad doing anything to upset you! You're the Golden Child, remember? LOL
I had heard that Kim was doing great. That's good news because she has diabetes and needs to take care of herself. And, the only thing that keeps holding me back from opening some type of gym is $13K and a building to put it in. Kevin D and I were just discussing that. He's like "get a loan" but I really can't extend myself like that right now. We are trying to pay off Chelsea's "facilitly" bills and that's taking a chunk of our change. Hopefully someone will do something like that though!

JEN: good job on your lunch and water today! I have to get more water in!!! Thanks for reminding me! LOL

Nik: I dvr'd it... if only I could send it to you. Maybe they are replaying it on the website.
