OK we are well into a new week here. How is everyone doing??

**nal** · April 1st, 2003, 07:11 AM

We already got our room assignment, right?

**Nitra** · April 1st, 2003, 10:49 AM

yep nal you are in the same cabin as last time! Paula and David have theirs, Lane and Mitch, Me, Holpak and Spyder, umm trying to remember who else.

**Clara** · April 2nd, 2003, 05:38 PM

Hi you guys.

Nal, David and I are on the same floor but I pick the other side this time. It's going to be here before we know it.

**Nitra** · April 2nd, 2003, 05:40 PM

Boy having mom in town is killing the workout program. At least we are doing a lot of walking. I was just starting this morning when she calls me and wants to know when I would be there to pick her up to go shopping! 9 am! Sheesh. Oh well guess Ill start new next week unless walking around malls counts.

**triplet** · April 3rd, 2003, 02:07 AM

Anitra,

AHEM....don't forget about me and my "mystery" roomie....we have our cabin....

Trip

**Nitra** · April 3rd, 2003, 06:00 AM

LOL yes you and your mystery roomie! I know there are others too. I think we only have a few that dont have them but all will within the next week or so. Since they give us 30 days to pay the full deposit and we have to pay by the 15 of May anyway Ill get them set. I dont want to wait more than we have to so we can try to get the best cabins possible.

**spydersong** · April 4th, 2003, 08:43 AM

**HOTMAMA** · April 4th, 2003, 08:59 AM

**Clara** · April 4th, 2003, 05:14 PM

I don't really know how I'm doing I think I've done all my exercise and pretty good on food so I'll see what the scale says on Monday.

**Nitra** · April 7th, 2003, 04:10 AM

Hey gang! New week! Everyone ready! 6 months 5 days left till cruise.

I didnt do much last week with mom in town. Today I start fresh. Got my water. About to do my workout.

How did everyone do last week? Dont worry if it was not a perfect week. You get a fresh start too. Lets do it!

**Clara** · April 7th, 2003, 04:17 PM

Hi you guys hope your doing better than I am. LOL I haven't been to the gym in 3 days

but will go Tuesday. I've just been really busy and hope what I've been doing is enough.

Anyway just wanted to check in and see how you guys were doing.

**nal** · April 7th, 2003, 04:31 PM

I've had a crappy week.

Didn't do much exercise at all, and I feel it. I'm stiff again. I leave for Ireland tomorrow, and have just been so busy. That, and my allergies are giving me fits......gripe, gripe, gripe. I'll walk LOTS in Ireland, and get back on the yoga classes when I return.

ERIN GO BRAGH!!

**Nitra** · April 8th, 2003, 04:05 AM

Nal have a great time in Ireland!

Ok where is everyone?? I am back on track again. Drank my water and did half an hour of exercise yesterday. About to do my cardio today.

Hello All!

Spyder

**Twister** · April 8th, 2003, 03:44 PM

Nitra- my little smiley icon has it's shades on because it's ready to go cruising... when is the next deposit due?... Can you let me know?... thanks in advance...

Twista...

**stacygirlvo** · April 9th, 2003, 06:59 AM

thank ya kindly! you know, as i was telling deltha in her post earlier - i have had really bad days & fallen off the wagon A LOT - the key this time seems to be just always doing it one day at a time and staying positive. and if i mess up, just refocus & start again...seems to be working cuz all i'm really doing is gym & smaller portions.

i'm going out for mexican tonight and i plan on eating whatever i want...

it's really interesting how if you change your mindset, it works!

**Nitra** · April 9th, 2003, 08:18 AM

You are right! You dont have to deprive yourself of the foods you love, you just have to learn how to enjoy them without overdoing it. They have been saying for years the key to long term weightloss is moderation and exercise.

**Nitra** · April 11th, 2003, 01:28 AM

Ok where are my challengers??? Did my half hour a day but this morning I woke up at 515 and was wide awake! I actually rolled out of bed and went for a walk before I came home and popped in the cardio tape so today Ill be doing an hour by time Im finished. Water is good. Food is good.

Ok yall come on! Time is running out fast. 6 months 1 day!

**stacygirlvo** · April 11th, 2003, 08:35 AM

CRUISING right along!

boy that lemons & splenda is really rocking my world! thanks again Nitra.

workouts-check, food-check, water-check.

**Nitra** · April 11th, 2003, 08:54 AM

I love it too. I usually keep a pitcher in the fridge. Sometimes you just gotta have something to help out with the water.

nal is out of town so I know she wont be checking in but where is everyone else???

**Phoenix Artist** · April 11th, 2003, 07:10 PM

I'm here!
Just have a rough week emotionally. Tiger Lily is not doing well and it is hard for me to have my baby so sick and feel so helpless. The vet upped her meds and we are playing a wait and see game for ten more days.
I have been pretty good with sticking to my goals. The easiest one for me is the water. I am so glad I like water.
Hope everyone else is having a good week.
Ellen

**Clara** · April 12th, 2003, 05:29 PM

Ellen I hope Tiger Lilly is doing better I know how much it bothers you when your baby is sick. <<HUGS>>

**Nitra** · April 13th, 2003, 02:42 AM

Aww Ellen Im sorry about your baby! Give her some hugs for me. Check in when you can. I wondered where you had been cause I had not seen you around.

How is everyone else doing?? Only a mere 5 months 29 days!!!!!!

**Twister** · April 13th, 2003, 06:43 AM

I'm here, I'm here... I have been reading but haven't really been posting much... feeling a little burnt out with life in general... I need to go on the cruise now... relax and destress...
Hey Holly and Ann- looks like our rooms are near each other on the ship...Wooohooooo...Party! Talk to you guys later... Shannon

**CONYSCAZ** · April 13th, 2003, 03:14 PM

Hey everyone! I am doing SOOOOO much better! I got the job of my dreams! I am so happy! I can breathe a sigh of relief! I can't wait to

Much love

Holly

**Nitra** · April 15th, 2003, 08:18 AM

Hey holpak! Sounds like you need to go see a doc and get a blood workup done.

Your deposit is paid up by the way. You wont owe anything until the end of July. I think I emailed you an updated invoice. If you didnt get it let me know and Ill resend it.

**holpak** · April 15th, 2003, 08:33 AM

Oh good i was hoping that I didn't owe anything just yet.. just got done paying for the airplane tickets and saving for the rest of the cruise.. phew .. um no i need an updated invoice.. oh and also could you send an updated one for my cousin to her email too... she wanted me to ask ya!!

Hope you all are doin good today!!

Much love

Holly

**Nitra** · April 15th, 2003, 10:09 AM

Oh holpak I got your mom and grandma in a cabin almost right across the hall! It is more catty corner but basically right across.

Ill send you an updated one. I have you and your cousin on one. Yall can split the difference!

**Clara** · April 15th, 2003, 04:14 PM

Holly I hope your feeling better. Just wanted to drop in and say hello to everyone. I've been really busy and doing terrible on my diet and exercise but promise to get back to it.

Its really cool seeing everyones cabin numbers makes it feel like its almost here.

**spydersong** · April 16th, 2003, 07:29 AM

Hi guys,

I'm still hanging in there..unfortunately seem to still be in limbo on the diet stuff..Maybe I should try the subway diet lol...

I've had the most seriously screwed up sleep schedle, I seem to have my days and nights backwards right now and it's really teeing me off.

I can't exercise right now as I can barely even walk, I don't know what I did but I messed up my left ankle and it seems to be the tendons that run down the outside top but sheesh it hurts! Just walking to the subway (3 blocks) and I'm limping... Hopefully it will clear up soon!

I'm in NY only for the today & tomorrow then I have to go back to NJ to my sisters..I can't wait until we get this website that I'm building live..then I can just stay in NYC and not have to be close to the company that I'm working on it for.

Ok..there's my venting for now!

Stacy - I SHOULD be able to meet next week..whats your schedule looking like??

Ciao,
Spyder
