Twister · April 18th, 2003, 07:00 AM

I'm here... I had a bad two weeks... have been so tired, haven't been eating, drinking my water... been down in the dumps... but the sun is out now and I am back into the groove...I'll try to behave myself...maybe what I need is a good *** whoop'n to get me in gear... I haven't gained any weight but I guess that is because I have been skipping meals and sleeping all the time... gotta get my cruise body on...Take my cruising buds and I'll see ya later... Shannon

Phoenix Artist · April 18th, 2003, 07:54 AM

I'm here, I'm here, I'm here! And I am extremely excited!
Today ended the Bunny Challenge so I got on the old devil scale and.......
drum roll please......
I weigh 308!!!!!!

I can't believe it! Guess all the added exercise is paying off!

At this rate I will make my cruise challenge goals for sure.

Hope everyone else is doing well.
Gotta go for now. I have some shopping to do. I'm making a wedding present for my niece and need to get stuff to wrap it and get it in the mail later today.

Hugs to all!

Ellen

Hotmama! Ok building a garage can count.. LOL. It is hard physical labor and you are burning calories.

Twister you just had to recoup from Nashville!

Now wont be long so just hang in there..

OMG PA! You are almost in the 200s! OMG how great for you! You are going to blow us all away at this rate! You keep going at this same rate and you will be down ANOTHER 65 lbs by cruise!

Anitra your gonna have to come down here and kick my butty cuse I'm really doing crummy. I only got to the gym 2 last week and once this week and its Friday.

LOL I've sorta been like Twister I just can't get excited about it.

Well I'm going to get off this computer right now and see if I can get my yard mowed before it starts raining.

Nitra · April 18th, 2003, 03:15 PM

Paula look out I am only about 4 hrs from you and off all weekend! Dont make me get ugly on you. Ill make missy kick you in the shins and poke your eyes out!

stacygirlvo · April 19th, 2003, 09:36 AM

i'm just going to pretend like i'm still coming...

i worked out for TWO hours today!

however, it's 2:30pm already & i've only had once bottle of water!

eek!

Phoenix Artist · April 19th, 2003, 03:38 PM

Hi Phellow Cruisers!

I just thought I would check in to say hello and let you know I am having a terrific day. I think that new number on the scale has really upped my motivation.

Did my crunches (100/50/50) this morning and some weights this afternoon. Just finished liter #4 on water. And have been so totally good on WW today. That includes a generous 1 cup helping of FF/SF chocolate fudge ice cream.

At 100 calories, 0 fat, and 6gr of fiber, it's only 1pt for half a cup or 2pts for what I ate. Not bad and totally deeeee-licious!

Stacy - sure wish you were going with us. I understand about the weddings but I was looking forward to meeting you.

Clara/Paula - From what I hear, one week of slacking is not going to hurt you much. Just don't let it be a habit.

Nitra - Thanks for noticing how close I am to the 2's. It is so exciting! I have not been under 300 since 1982.
I was looking through an old album the other day and if I can hit 250-260 by cruise time I will look sooo good. (At least compared to now!) Plus I haven't been below 260 in 28 years.

Well ladies, I am off to walk the pupper. We don't go far since she has been ill but it's still something.

Happy Easter Everyone!
Ellen

Clara · April 19th, 2003, 06:25 PM

Anitra I'm almost tempted to slack off just so you'll come this way.

I haven't been back to the gym yet but I did work in my yard which wore me out. I talked to the girl I normally work out with and it looks like she wont be going with me until Tuesday.

So I either do it at home or get over to the gym. I'll do one or the other Monday but Sunday I have things planned with the family and won't have time.

Ellen your doing great and sound so excited it makes me want to get going to. I promise I wont slack off to long but this little break has done me some good.

Have a Happy Easter you guys and talk to you tomorrow night.

Nitra · April 20th, 2003, 03:27 AM

Ok paula.. see this was my one rare weekend off! I should have come up there and kicked your booty. Just plan that Monday you WILL get back on track.

Im up to almost an hour a day/6 days a week working out now. My goal was 3 hrs a week, and at least 64 oz of water a day. Im taking in about 96 oz of water a day and almost 6 hrs a week exercise! We have only been at this a little over a month.

Im so proud of Ellen! She inspires me to keep pushing. She is going to be one hot momma on that ship! Look out!

Clara · April 20th, 2003, 04:13 PM

I know what you mean about Ellen, Ellen your doing awesome and the harder you work the more it motivates me to keep going.

Anitra I promise I will be back at the gym tomorrow no matter what. I had a great weekend with the kids and my MIL but now I have no excuse.

Your doing great with both the water and exercise. I really need to drink more water now that its getting warmer outside.

Enjoy the rest of the evening and talk to you tomorrow.

Phoenix Artist · April 21st, 2003, 07:28 AM

Anitra and Paula, you ladies have me blushing. Thank you for the compliments.
I just decided I need to stick with it no matter what. I have spent all 56 years of my life being FAT and am determined to not be anymore.
It's going to take awhile to get to my final goal but wth...it took me a long time to get this big...what's a couple years to get to goal. But I also know I won't get there without working for it.
I was bad yesterday though.

Well, not end of the world bad but I did eat way too much ham. I seldom eat meat (I am a seafood and veggie lover!) but ham is a weakness. Seeing as how I ate almost nothing else all day, the calories weren't too bad. But all that salt!!

So today is extra water, lots of green tea, and an extra walk or two.
Ellen

Clara · April 26th, 2003, 07:26 PM

Hi everyone just wanted to say that things are going good just busy this week. Hope your all doing ok.

nal · April 27th, 2003, 04:57 AM

I'm back on the bandwagon! I know I walked at least 5 miles a day in Ireland. Driving was too scary! As soon as we could, we parked the car and hoofed it everywhere. Unfortunately, the food and the Guiness were mighty good, so I think I probably came out about even. My calves are rock hard, though!

I'm through the worst of the jet lag, no more excuses. My blisters are almost all healed, so I am going for a 4 mile walk with my girlfriend today. It's not raining, so off we go.
