March Bandsters: MASTER THREAD

[lynnt1215 1]

Lynn! I love how you're rocking your band!

I'm sorry about Cobi - I hope the vet can help. In any case, he or she will be able to give you a clearer idea of what to do next.

Fenton - not sure how well I am "rocking my band" will know more after weighing in at DR this afternoon.

Called the vet and my dog and I will visit the vet this Saturday.

Nice work, Kathy! I really do think exercise is key.

And Lynn? You're 3/4 of the way to goal! You're rocking the HECK out of that band!

Sharing a cross link over to a post I added on the Fitness and Exercise forum to some forms I created for tracking workouts if they would help any of the Shrinking Shamrocks!

Trying to kick it into a higher gear with more exercise in 2009 and tracking what I'm doing and VARYING it so I won't get bored and slack off.

Exercise has GOT to be my goal for 2009!

I suspect I'd be almost to goal if I'd been faithfully exercising!

UGH!! weighed in at my DR. today.. gained 5#, but it puts me back at my weight just before Thanksgiving

Also, got 1cc fill.. back to liquids for a day or 2, so that will probably drop some of that 5#

Thanks, Special K - I took a look at the sites you set up for fitness

Fenton can I admit that I can't wait to see how much weight you have lost when you do venture onto a scale? It's oh so true!

I can't believe how cold I am. BRRRrrrr.... My family thinks I am nuts!!!

I have been working on and off trying to accomplish the Couch to 5K program. We bought a treadmill for Christmas so now I need to get serious about it. With some advice from a few C25k buddies I was able to run 10 minutes straight this morning. FINALLY. I plan on running a 5k in 2009.

My DH wants to go white Water rafting this summer. I would never go before because I was afraid the life vest would not fit. So there is another thing I would like to do in 2009.

[Fenton 3]

Christine! Don't get your hopes up!

I've been pretty slack the last couple of weeks - eating more, excercising less. I'll climb onto that sonuvagun on Friday, but I'm just hoping I haven't *gained* now!

But I'm excited for 2009. I think my gym membership is on its way to being worked out, and I'm feeling good about eating less, and I just got three new yoga DVD's - the world is my oyster!

Potentially!

And yay for white Water rafting!

[HarleyGirl 1]

I am excited about 2009 as well.

I am determined to make good things happen in my life.

I love my job, but I am hoping for a position with a little more responsibility. Truly hoping to move in to sales...been sowing some seeds in that regard and hoping the boss has been paying attention!

We have a vacation planned in May.....a cruise with ten of our friends. It will be just an absolute blast. I WILL be at goal by then and I am envisioning myself on the beach in Jamaica wearing a swimsuit!

My daughter is becoming more and more of a wonderful human being. She delights me at every turn and I get excited watching her become a woman. She's very good at it.

Anyway.....I'm bringing good things in to my life....and excusing negative things.....negativity is such a soul sucker.

I am wishing good things and success for all of us!

You guys have become a very important part of my support group. Even if I don't post everyday, I do read every day!

HERE'S TO A WONDERFUL, HEALTHY, HAPPY AND SLENDER 2009!

[Fenton 3]

OK, peeps! I want to wish you all a fantastic New Year's Eve. And let's see how much ass we can collectively kick this year! I'm really excited about seeing some of you guys romping home to GOAL soon...

Congratulations to all of us on our achievements in 2008, and let's all of us have a rockin' 2009!

[SpecialK 22]

Yes, me too -- I can't believe how much we have all accomplished this year with hard work, dedication, and working with our band tool. I thank God every day for getting me healthier and know I have to keep going.

Happy New Year to all the Shrinking Shamrocks!

You rock! ...as always

[Tess415 1]

Wishing you all a Happy, Healthy New Year!!!!

I am at home with my DH and 12 year old DS. We have been eating Snacks (I can't believe how much I have eaten) and playing games. We just took a break to watch "America Funniest Home Videos" I love to hear my DS laugh. I still have buffalo wings and mozzerella cheese sticks to bake. Ughh...

This weigh in will be a bust. Tomorrow is a new day - a new year.

[Fenton 3]

OK, Shamrocks!

TIME TO PAY THE PIPER!!!

We've all been pretty slack in the last couple of weeks I'm sure, maybe with the exception of a couple of praiseworthy individuals, but now it's time to face the reckoning, and see how much damage we've done. I know I've been bad - I desperately want to say, "No! Wait! Let's do this on Monday instead! I'll start watching my intake today, lose the Water weight, and shine on Monday!"

But NO! Today is Friday...

TODAY IS MARCH BANDSTER WEIGH-IN DAY!!!

I'll seeya on the other side...
