Good to know Angie.  I better let Phil handle it because when I'm pissed I really let loose.  He's calmer than I am and he doesn't raise his voice like I do, LOL!!!!!  He gets nasty in a calm voice.

I just busted out 20 minutes on the ellipictal.  I went balls out for 20 minutes.  Since were amongst friends here I gotta tell ya after I was done I liked the song that was on so I was dancing all crazy all over the room.  I'm glad no one could see me because I'm pretty sure that I looked like an idiot, LMAO!!!!!

LOL!!!!!  Go Mel Go.  I'm to pooped this morning, I'm going to bed for, hopefully, eight hours.  Then hopefully the Wii will be working and I'll get in a bitchen' workout.  I guess even if the Wii isn't working, I'll still get in a workout.

Geez, why can't I get more than 6 fricken' hours of sleep.  UGHHHH!!!

Anyway, the Wii is back up and working.  I guess leaving it unplugged for 24 hours worked.

I got in a good 20 minutes and the good ol' weight and BMI is slowly creeping down.

Too bad I'll probably gain it all back tomorrow  Angry

Yes, A happy Thanksgiving to everyone.

Today I am going to figure out how to work on that Dance Revolution. Barry is at work so I won't have an audience, that will make it easier, I hope.

Eat lots today, for today is your free day for food. Enjoy

yes, Happy Thanksgiving Hogs!! Smiley

Now let me say how FRUSTRATED I am!! LOL  I feel like a big balloon every day now, and am wondering if it has to do with all the salted peanuts I've been eating. Embarrassed  I should have known better, not only do they make me retain water, but they stall my weight loss.  But I need a snack really bad!  I am such a snacker.  I suppose I'll have to order some freeze dried peas off the net as I cannot make them myself.  *sigh*

I am so envious of you girls and your Wii's!!!  They sound like so much fun!

Melissa, the Wii is a lot of fun. Hope you can get one in the near future. As for now your exercising on the bike is great. Good Cardio workout.

As for peanuts and such, I bought a bag of Cashews, for a measly 1/4 cup it contains 210 calories, 16g of fat. My body loves fat, stores it well.

I will save those for Christmas, very good to eat with Rosebuds. Yum.

Good work to all! It's great to see. At my new place of work, I have to park my car on the top floor, walk doen 6 flights of stairs and then up 2 to my desk. At the end of the day, it's back up those 6 flights of stairs!! What's that worth? 1/2 a Mars bar??  Wink

Pay day tomorrow - hoping to get Wii fit!!

Em it sounds like it's a workout just to get to work  Wink

I got in 30 minutes this morning.  Body test pissed me off all to hell.  Damn myself for all that eating yesterday. 

A little voice inside my head told me that I'd have to work it off Wink  I should've listened!!!!!!

I just go in a 40 minute workout.  The body test was much better today.  It must be time to shake things up.  I keep hovering around 13 pounds to lose.  My jeans are fitting a lot better and I'm starting to see some definition in my abs.  I'm getting some curve back.

How's everyone else doing?  Haven't heard from ya in a couple days.

Not doing good here. Sad  I can't control my eating and binge on stuff that's bad for me.  The lowcarb route just isn't working this time around due to my very bad sweet tooth.  I will probably have to switch to counting calories and low fat which I HATE.  The stuff tastes like saw dust. Smiley

I'm very depressed over my weight and need to get into a good diet eating plan, but I'm lost over where to start.  Any suggestions?? Cry


btw Jen, glad the Wii is working again! Smiley

Oh Mel  Cry

I'm not good at giving dieting tips, because I'm such a picky eater.  I like what I like and that's what I eat.

It's so hard for me to watch what I put in my mouth.  Which is why I keep hovering at the same amount of weight to lose.  I think part of my problem is I eat too much at meal time.  Maybe I should follow Jonny's advice and eat six times a day. 

Sometimes just subtle changes in your diet can make a huge difference.  Lowering sodium content, switching to lowfat stuff.  Have you ever thought about trying some of the slimfast bars?  They have a chocolate brownie one that's pretty good.  Not as good as the real thing, but maybe that would help with the sweet tooth.  Detour makes a bar that tastes a lot like a Snickers, it you like those.

IMO, if you crave something, eat it.  Just do it in moderation.

I hoped that helped a bit, I suck at dieting advice.

Now smile, Mel Smiley Smiley Smiley Smiley Smiley

Melly - I'm exactly the same. I have no willpower when it comes to bad foods. I just want sweets all the time. I am feeling a little stuck too. It's hard because my OH loses weight like no one's business (in the 2 weeks we've been moving and moved, he's lost 8lbs. He only weighed 168lbs before! B*stard) so he always eats - picking constantly at nuts and snacks and chips and I want it all too... I on the other hand, haven't lost any weight, but I dare not get on the scales.

One thing I have been trying (not sure if it'll work or not yet) is before my main meal, I'm eating a big salad with dressing or whatever I want on it - just plain (no meat). Then when I get to whatever I've cooked, I'm almost full, so I have just a little piece of lasagna with 4 different cheeses, or a small portion of chicken with a few fries so I'm not missing out.

Still no Wii Fit...  Sad All sold out here!!

I found this website with lots of different things to try. Might be worth having a look. Multimedia File Viewing and Clickable Links are available for Registered Members only!!  You need to Login or Register

I can't even face starting Christmas baking yet.

A rest day is a good thing. Let your body recover so tomorrow you can get back on feeling strong. Went on a 20 min powerwalk with the dogs today.

Better than nothing, right?

Go, Em, go.  Good for you.  I'm thinking about going out to shovel the snow.  That's a little bit of activity, right?

Mel is it snowing across the pond too?

Yup, that it is.  We have a winter weather advisory out right now and the roads are slippery!

We're under a winter weather warning.  I'm a little nervous having to go to work tonight.  A good thing Phil fixed the truck on Friday.  At least I'll have 4 wheel drive  Wink

Our storm has now arrived. Yuk.

Have not been on the Wii Fit since Thursday. Worked long hours all weekend. This time of year I am on the floor helping so lots of running.
Had lean cuisines for lunch and dinner so I am hoping the Wii will be nice tomorrow for the BODY TEST.

Just got home and I am starving, going for Toast and peanut butter.

Well, I made it to work and home safe and sound.  The roads sucked, but I just took my time.

I got in a good 45 minutes this morning.  The body test said that I gained .9lbs.  I guess that's not soooo bad considering that your body weight can fluctuate (is that how you spell that big word) 2 lbs a day.

Oh well, I get back at it tomorrow.

Okay, ladies this party of one isn't fun, LOL!!!!!

Do any of you watch The Biggest Loser?  I actually got pissy when they were talking about what size some of those women were wearing.  This one chick they said was wearing a size 14.  I'm sorry but there was no way in hell that woman was a size 14.

Anyway, I did get 30 minutes in this morning.

I wish I was a 14. Sad

I'm sorry, but for some reason I am just not getting anywhere with my weight.  I'll keep up with the biking, but weighing myself is getting depressing.  In the time I've been doing this I lost a whole 2lbs.  Pathetic. Embarrassed

I wish I was more enthusiastic right now!
