Okay I got it - will set up after Yoga:)

Fruitland, ID US to

Garden City, IA US

Total Est. Distance: 1470.11 miles

Thanx for your help everyone!

Do you think 1470 is good for a start or the 2,500 one ?
 
Well I just did 45 mins of yoga and man im so much mor eoutta shape than before *SIGH* here's to restarting and doing it this time for sure!!!
 
Well the ticker barely budged! I'm back down to the the exact weight I was before the holidays!

I didn't expect a huge loss, because my body has been rebelling against all of my hard work. The scale has actually been up the past few days... this was the first day for a loss! I think it's because Aunt Flo is coming to town in about 3 days. I can't wait to get that over with and start seeing results!
 
Like I said hun, any budge is a budge! Its still a good thing!! Weigh in isnt' till the 10th anyways!
 
Hi Guys

Just dropping by to see how everyone is doing which is great by the way and i totally agree with newbride02 a budge is a budge and its heading in the right direction

Please do not worry about this. I have gained 6.4 pounds this Christmas (due to serious eating) BUT as soon as I restarted my regimen I have lost 6.2 pounds in 3 days. So all these pounds are the food inside your stomach and retained water. Same happened to me during my one week holiday this summer. So this is a very encouraging thing I have discovered. One week binging can be easily overcome for 3 days active sport and good eating. Maybe it is valid only for my body but I doubt.


Thanks Wulsk coz believe me I was a little freaked over it....but we will see what Thursday brings :D

Glad to see everyone is doing so well and we already have "budges" in the right direction. :)

I am so trying not to sabotage myself!! There is a woman at work who has taken a liking to insulting me about my weight....well she started last week. I know why she is doing it...but really she is being nasty. I had my laptop case with me and she asked me if it is full of food. I told her if it was full of food, I would have enough for the entire winter and I am not a squirrel. Everyone started laughing at that. Then later I was in that area again talking to the other ladies about the fruits and vegetables we like, and she came back to her seat in the middle of our conversation. Coincidentally...I just told them that my favorite vegetable is string beans...and I like them raw with nothing on them. They were all commenting on that when she returned, and she said, "Who GINGER(my name)?!?!?! The only vegetables she eats are hamburgers...she figures if the cow eats grass and she eats the cow that she is eating vegetables too." Well honestly I cannot remember what I told her...maybe something off the lines of whether or not grass is a staple in her diet... i cannot remember really coz i got upset at her utter rudeness ;)(play on words there). I am not a pushover and I do not have low self esteem (Thank God)...my problem is simply, I do not want her to think i am losing weight because of her comments. I am soooo tempted to go on that side and sit with the other ladies and have some rather fattening foods in her face lolol:blush5: but I know that would just be sabotaging myself and making her feel better. So, I bought more salads and grilled chicken breast for the week...but man....it is so difficult for me to not give a hoot if she thinks i am doing this because of her or not. I am not still bothered by her insult because i seldom eat hamburgers...I am a dessert and soda person.:) I will try to stay focused this week tho, and be a salad, water and grilled chicken person :D

Take care all and thanks for reading my little rant there.:nopity: It made me feel better just to get it out of my system LOL. Hope everyone has a great week!!
 
Ginger, that woman needs to be put in her place. How down right insensitive to say things like that to you. I just don't understand people sometimes. I'm guessing she could probably lose a few lbs. herself and maybe she is jealous of the self control you are exhibiting and wishes she could be like you. In any case don't let her get to you and sabatoge what you are trying to do. You are doing something good for yourself and that's what matters, not what she thinks.

OH wow... Ginger hang in there. Don't let her insecurities or jealousy (which I am reading in to this & thinking she has) get you off track with your goals. You are getting healthy for you so stay dedicated to that. Let her think what she will... sounds like she is the type person that doesn't have much credibility anyway as I bet you aren't the only one she talks about negatively. So just think of her as a speed bump in the path to a health you... run right over the b*tch! (mentally at least)
 
Ginger, You are great at handling that woman....I would definitely lose my cool. That lady must have some LOW self esteem to feel the need to pick on you so much! Keep your head high!
 
What a jerk! I'm sorry about that, Ginger. You seem to be handling it very well...I would be so freaked out at her nerve. Keep it up and just ignore her.
 
Ginger, I tried to think logically why a woman would say such a thing to other woman. I don't think that your weight is the problem, she obviously hates you for some other reason and this is the only way she can react. Or she is mentally challenged. I actually can't really advise you, I never came across such an animal before. Women usually are very supportive! Blah! Nasty accident. :ack2: Don't give up. We are all sweet and nice in here and stand behind you.
 
bummed!

My weight has gone up. I am not walking, or haven't been, but tomorrow is supposed to be in the fifties, hopefully I can go back down to 292. whatever it was ... oy vey ..talk about feeling horrid ...

the kids on the street stink ... one time ...they made squeeling noises in one of those blow horns ..these kids live RIGHT NEXT DOOR!! it just echoed through out the street ..
but I am going to go walking tomorrow and walk everyday and hopefully I will see a loss on the tenth ...

ttylater peeps
love yas

I can't believe you have to work with this woman ...
Im sorry you are going through this ... but you are strong ... just look at her and think ... "I will lose the weight .. but you will always be an asshole..."

best wishes hun
Just remember .. you are better than that filthy woman!

always

You all are the sweetest :)

:beating:V.(thekrinse), Caterpillar, Moon Goddess, Keepitoff83, I wear his ring, Wulsk and Natalie Jo, Thank you all sooooo very much for your concern for me. You all are very kind and even sweet to care. I have to say that all of your answers are very perceptive!! And many quite humorous :rotflmao:

V.(thekrinse) thank you for your words of encouragement...I really was so close to letting her sabotage me.

Caterpillar thank you so much for saying I handled it well. :) She is quite a handful, I have seen people near to tears because of her comments. :(

MoonGoddess without going too much into details i will say your reading is correct LOL and you are right, as I told caterpillar she is very insulting to others. I literally laid back laughing when u said this "So just think of her as a speed bump in the path to a health you... run right over the b*tch! (mentally at least)" :rotflmao:Thank you for your insight and words of encouragement.

Keepitoff83 thank you for saying i handled her well...I can be a bit saucy when i need to be i guess :"> Thanks for encouraging me as well.

I wear his ring thank you so much. I did ignore her on Friday and at the end of the day she said goodbye practically yelling at me. I didn't think she would be so bothered by it!! Thank you for your comments and words of encouragement.

Wulsk you are correct...I think that she does harbor ill will toward me for another reason. But honestly, I have never done a thing to that woman to deserve her attitude and scorn!! I really hope that she does not have a mental problem. I think she is just miserable in general, and I try to be nice to her. From now on though, I think I will just keep a low profile with her. Thank you for your supporting me and being so sweet!!

Thank you soooo much Natalie Jo for supporting me when you are dealing with such horrid individuals yourself!! I am also so proud of you for continuing to walk regardless of these rude children. I am so sorry that you had to experience that. So terrible. It's like the MoonGoddess said they are like speedbumps on our journey to health. Keep doing what you are doing, I will be here for you through this! My weight recently went up a little by four pounds, but we can do this. I have 144lbs to lose, but I know I can do it and so can you!! Thanks again for putting your own situation aside to encourage me!! It is very nice of you :)

Take care all!! Thank you so much for being so kind and supportive.

Weigh in is on Thursday everybody!! :party:I cannot wait to see everyones "budges"!
