Hi Kelli!!! I'm here and I thought I replied.....probably hit preview instead of submit---I do brainless things like that (often ). I do read all of your posts so you aren't talking to yourself!

Good for you on the wing night! That would be a hard one, the smells and being around it for a long span of time. I admire that you are staying compliant through the temptation!!!!

Hi Kelli,
Congrats on Wing Night. I do not know how you do it. I read your earlier post about Tom. One thing I also noticed since I have lost alot of weight it is a little more painful. Actually go to the doc's today. I will ask her.
Totally agree about this weather I can not wait until summer. My favorite time of year.

Thanks Towanda and Katie.

Except for today, I have been walking at least for 45 minutes every day. Yesterday we went on one of the walking trails of the University and we ended up going to the end, well we didn't get back within 45 minutes, we were gone for an hour and 15 minutes. We did about 4 miles! My short, stubby legs were exhausted!

I have short stubby legs too. When I read this I got a mental picture of how I look in one of those mirrors in a magic house. You know........ the ones that distort your body. It just cracked me up.

Wow.....you're doing great with your exercise. Those legs won't be stubby for long. Nothing we can do about short, but stubby is going to be history soon. Lookout Stubby, the MF mafia has you marked.

Sorry to hear you're having trouble with TOM. I am normally a loving, friendly person, but I hate TOM and Aunt Flo too. Glad to hear things are a little better today.

Oh......and on the 2# down. That's GREAT!!!!!!!!

You are doing so well with surviving WING night. I agree with Katie.......I don't know how you do it. I'm thankful I don't have to work around food. However, today alone I have been offered biscuits and theater popcorn. I sat through a staff meeting earlier today and watched everyone in the room eat popcorn but me. What is it about the smell of theater popcorn that just drives you crazy!

Donica, just remember the popcorn NEVER tastes as good as it smells.

Kelee, great goin'! Enjoy watching that scale go down, down and down some more.

Thanks Donica and Jonna! ....someone is popping popcorn as I type in the next room. I'll have to smell the aroma all afternoon (my office is right next to the kitchen)!

Donica, I have known people to be shorter than me, but their legs are longer and my torso really isn't that long...go figure! <---my stubby legs!

It was a little chilly on my walk today, but warmed up after the first 1/2 mile. I have 3 miles under my belt for today so far. Its actually nice getting out of the office and into the fresh air. We used to sit in the lunch room at lunch and do the crossword puzzle together, but its much nicer going outside, walking and clearing my head.

My DH is going to be home early for once tomorrow night so looking forward to spending time with him...haven't spent too much time with him lately cuz he's been in the garage working on his motorcycle....Boys and their toys! Course he does do things to mine when I want him to, but again as long as he can tinker he's happy.

I couldn't eat popcorn for almost three years when I had braces and I never got the taste for it back. Same thing with Jolly Ranchers.

Well I'm officially weighing in today at 186. TOM has settled and I think my body is settling down. I'm at my all time lowest since I don't know when. I'm hoping I can be in the low 170's by the time I go to bike week in Myrtle Beach which is the second week of May. That's my mini goal.

[bikipatra]

Oh, how cute, we almost weigh the same!

[KeleeGrl]

Yeah, but you still have nicer legs than mine!! I was trying on bathing suits and they looked okay, as far as bathing suits go, but didn't like my legs!!

Give it some time. I bet my belly is bigger than yours. That year of drinking beer did me in!

[Tawanda]

Congratulations on the loss!! My fitday says that I should be in the high 170's the first week of May (by what I've lost per week so far)....so hopefully you will see your mini goal happen by then (if not before!).

[Tawanda]

Kelli, how are you doing?

[KeleeGrl]

Tawanda, I think I had a tapeworm this weekend! I planned to do good, but didn't. But I'm back on the wagon...not giving up. I'm up 2 lbs from ticker, but WILL have that off and maybe 1 more by Thursday...if I have anything to say about it! I'm just lucky it was only two. I hate when I sabotage a 3 pound loss, but I know I'm going to take that off and even more, cuz my head is back in the game. I especially know I have to stay compliant if I want to make into the 170's before going to Myrtle Beach. I have to look good in my thong with my chaps on...OMIGOD...only kidding...don't even want to think about that sight!

I counted my total steps for only 4 days last week and I had a total of 50,287 which equals 18.98 miles which equals a total of 3004.07 calories. I think that was the only thing that save me this weekend! I think I'm goign to start doing pilates for my tummy to start tightening...its actually almost flat, but needs toning.

[Tawanda]

Kelli, drown that tapeworm with plenty of water so it won't rear it's ugly head ever again!
