The Upside to Downsizing

Okay, I need to start exercising.  Barb tells me she marches on the spot while watching TV.  I think I'll try that, but I'd prefer something I could do quicker, so I was finished sooner. . . 

My bg was also the lowest it's been all month!   I'm very happy about that!

I am sooo lost!  I don't know how I stumbled into this room, or how I'll ever find it again, but it's nice to run into familiar faces.  I've been roaming the halls looking for the IAC cabin.  Darn!  I knew I should have left a trail of breadcrumbs.

Aunt B 

Thanks Donna.  I did that for this thread, but I can't find IAC to add it to my favorites. It'll be handy, having them all at my fingertips, but I guess it'll take awhile to find them in the first place.  Oh well, I'm not in a big rush...you'll all still be there when I find the room, right?

Aunt B  

I feel like I'm stumbling around near blind...everything looks sorta familiar but...not. Guess I'll hafta play more tomorrow. *sigh*

Woo-hoo!  I resized my photo to fit, and even used a colored version, all by myself.  I'm going to turn into some kind of teckie person!

I suspected that about IAC, Donna.  I'll keep watching for it.

Hi Jana!  Hi Shewolf!

Aunt B

Wow, now that's what I call trippy. Now, where's our IAC?

J (WHO WILL GET TO HER PHOTO LATER

I knew I didn't do enough tire kicking.    It was just the wrong time of the year, and I didn't have time to do as much as I'd have liked. 

 Guess I'll learn along with everyone else. 

I solved the problem of not liking to walk on the spot.  I've now got an elliptor machine in my basement.    And I'm getting pretty good at using it, too. 

I've marked this as favorite, and accepted everyone who wanted to make me their buddy, but couldn't find where to ask others to be my buddy.  It's after 1 a.m. -- maybe that's why?    I'm off to bed for today, I'll work on this more tomorrow. . . 

Donna H -- when you find someone that you want as a friend click on their name at the top of their comment (it's in blue) and this will take you to their profile.  At the top of the profile on the right side you will see "add as a friend" click on that and it will send a message to them asking if they will accept you as a friend and when they accept you will see them on your profile as a friend.

Barb~I know what you mean. I don't eat like a lot of the larger folks on some of these shows do. At least I don't think I do. Fast food is actually a rarity for me as is most junk food. Every now and then I go a little crazy with portions if it's something I haven't had in a while that I love but that doesn't happen too often. I feel like I eat like all the thin people in my life. So why do I not lose??? So frustrating.

I don't like that you can't scroll up and see previous posts while commenting.  I sometimes forget who I was meant to comment to and need to scroll back up and look. Guess I'll have to start taking notes while reading posts, huh?

 Needless to say, I forgot what else I was going to say. Maybe later. lol

 Had a tunafish sandwhich for supper last night. (teaspoon of mayo and a palmful of raisins mixed in on whole wheat bread ) I'm trying to get more tuna in my life with it's healthy fat.

YAY! :) Now I've found my two favorite places. Adding them to favorites so I can find them again later.

I ate horrible again today, even after deciding to be good. Weighed in at WW and am back up the 5lbs I had lost. :P phooey on that. Anyway, I have tomorrow's food planned out and am seriously contemplating going back to HM. I hate being FAT!

ANyway, this weekend starts the TO boat show. Whoohoo!

see you again soon.

Sara

Hi to all of you,glad to see you finding your way around.  I was in on Tire Kicking but still have things to learn,but have to admit it was fun.                            Had really high hopes of being on the positive side of  controlling my sugar but ended up sick plus had our oven die & couple other upsets. Now I find I just have lost the push to get going again-any suggestions?   Thanks,Cheryl

I totally forgot to mention that here! LOL I'm glad your mind is better than mine, Sara.

BTW, Glad to have you back among us Missy Sara. I missed you. (I was gonna put that "Kiss" emticon on there but it looks kinda slutty so I'll just say "hugs" and be on the safe side. Don't want you to think I'm  hittin' on you or anything. hehehehe)

I did great all day.  Snacked on about 6 french fries and a bite of chicken finger at lunch, but other than that did great  Then I took the girls to McD's at Walmart for supper.  I didn't feel great, so you know what I did???  I ate some of their french fries and 1.5 nuggets!!! WHAT?! :p Crazy.

Then I came home, still not feeling well . . .so I ate some triscuits (half fat. . .love 'em!).  Oh, and a mini Laura Secord milk chocolate bar, and a Lindor Mint ball. 

I confuse me. 

Jana-I've been reading your blog still in bits. The last month was pretty crazy.  Unbusy but busy.  

 Chatty-next time I talk to April, I will tell her. :) She's looking amazing btw.  

 I bought a new work out dvd.  .  . it's one you can do on your bed.  Carmen Electra's one.  Haven't tried it yet though.  I'm still contemplating whether I'd actually do it or not.  LOL

Sara

Well New Year's Resolutions and all that.  Well I'm really going to do it this year.  I've signed myself up for the local "Star Loser Contest" ( like the biggest loser ).  There's money involved and for this cheapskate at heart, is a big deal.  I've also signed us up with a family membership at the local YMCA.  I've gone up there every day so far, except Wednesdays.  I've got bowling league those nights.  I won't get there today, but I'm going on Saturday.  One week, and I've lost 5 pounds.  Not a lot, but it's a start.  I'm watching my portions and my eating fast food on my lunch hour.

 The girls absolutely love going up there.  I have a hard time telling them when it's time to leave, which definitely helps.  If they fought me, it'd make me not want to go.   Hubby hasn't been feeling well so he hasn't gone yet.  We're both hoping he's feeling up to going tomorrow.

Well got to get some work done.

Amina

Amina~5lbs is awesome, hun. If I lost 5lbs in a week I'd be shouting from the rafters! LOL Keep up the good work, hun. Sounds as though you have an excellent game plan. You can do it!

Sara~Yes, lock the door. hehehehe

I'm patting myself on the back. I resisted the very strong temptation to go for another bagel and instead opted for a 100 calorie snack and a cup of tea. After I get paid next week I'm going to buy some carrot chips and some non fat dip to snack on during breaks. Maybe some fruit, too. Maybe some mini-bagels to sort of help me with those cravings.
