Thread: Staying Lean! :)

Ohhhh, she's here!!! WOO HOO.....(see that W8?)
I'm so glad you are here. So, now that you're here, what's the diet and training looking like since you've been back? Did you totally blow it out while on the honeymoon? I know I did, anniversary trip too!! But -- in all fairness to the balance of cardio and nutrition, I did work it off
C'mon.....give up the day's events girly

Are you ALL leaving me alone at MM.com!?! Maybe I should move my journal as well.. hmm, I'll have to think about it.. Anyway, Princess, glad you decided to keep up on the journaling even after your wedding! I know you'll stay FAB and not get FLAB!

OMG!! yu have a piece of chocolate every day!! I love you. Finally someone who is ultra fit and confesses to cheating on chocolate. I thought I was the only one. I have alittle pieceof my fav. chocolate almost everyday, the kind with real cocoa, b/c I figure its my treat for the day.

Hey Girlies!! I love this site...ya, Nike Girl get your bootie over here!!! oh the diet went down the drain on the honeymoon. We had a lot of pasta (I did have Grilled chicken and salads though)! AND I had A LOT of fruit..but I had a lot of chocolate too!! Yum! But your right Fitgirl...It all balanced off with all our walking around we did and the bed cardio!! But now that I am back at work everything is getting back to normal! I have been busy getting all our gifts in order..we can't even walk into our apartment!! ITS NUTS!! And since Matt works 2-11pm, I have been at my moms, going jogging with my dog that lives with her..and going through pictures and presents! I am finally going to the gym tonight though! YEAH!!!
Nike girl...I wouldn't leave my journal just cause I'm married....I would miss you girls too much!!

HOW FUNNY!! Yep~ I have just one piece a day!! Its always either a hershey kiss...or like lately its been one of those tiny little bite size EASTER solid chocolate balls you know... they are like as big as your thumb nail!! But that satisfies my cravings! AND like that small bite is gonna hurt...I don't think so!!

Ha.....who said anything about a bed?!?!?!?!


hahahaha.......I do like that though -- bed cardio. I think I'm going to have to use that one. Brad will die.

HAHAHA!! NO KIDDING!! HE WOULD die!! Well, now that you mention that you said nothing about a bed..... there was a juccuzi in the room, and a badass shower..and............. ANYWAY..is it time to go home yet????

I know "time to go home" better get here really quickly.

All this talk about working out isn't helping me out any!!!

DAMMITTT

It's okay.....you go right ahead and be a copycatter...LOL
Let me know how you like that.

Are ya busy at work today? Thank god it's friday huh!!

No, not busy at all. I went to lunch with a friend of mine and she is going to follow my workouts for the next six weeks. We've also decided to start a money pot. Each week, we're going to put in some money and if we cheat on our diets, we have to put in $5. At the end of our 6 weeks, whoever has the best progress and has the best diets wins the pot......kinda cool huh??? BTW -- this is the same girl that I have waged war with at my gym.....lol

Princess, I really admire your dedication to clean eating. I need to work on having will power like yours.

I'm glad things are going well for you.

Next question, why does your dog live with your mom?

Good Morning Miss L and Fitgirl!!! How are you guys??
I'm good....
Miss L~ Thanks for saying you admire me..you do very awesome to though girlie!!!
My dog lives with my mom because we cannot have big dogs at our apartment. Shes lived there for 15 years (big collie) and I wouldn't want her to be stuck in an apartment without a back yard to play in! So I go visit her!
Hope everyone had a great weekend!
I found out that my Uncle that was sick with the cancer (I talked about him before on my musclemag journal) he died saturday afternoon. So I am really upset about him. But I know hes not suffering anymore. Anyway..I gotta leave work at 2:30 today..and go to my aunts in Brenham..and the funeral is in the morning. Soooo I will play catch up with you girls on Wednesday!
Take care!

Oh, sweetie, I'm so sorry to hear about your uncle. But like you said, you know he is in a better place. And isn't it great that you got to see him on your wedding day? What a special memory that will be for you.

I understand about your dog. Dixie is only 10 pounds, so she is a good apartment dog. We plan to either get another Dachshund when we get a house, or to get a bigger dog. Either a collie or golden retriever. Those dogs are so sweet!

We'll be thinking about you. Hope you are doing well.

Hey sweetie ... thank you!! Yea, it is great that I got to see him on my wedding day!! I know he loved it too!!
Those dogs are really sweet..and very protective! I can't wait till we get a house so we can have a lot of big dogs!!
Talk to ya later!!

Hey Girlie!!!

When are ya gonna post those wedding pics???

What butterfly said! Hopefully you can post some pics when you get back later this week.

Stacey....honey, I'm so sorry about your Uncle. I know that he is looking down on you and watching over you at all times still. When I pray and talk to my father-in-law, I will have him look out for him. I know he is in a better place where there is no pain and no sorrow.
I'm here if you wanna chat. I know how hard it is to lose someone you love.
Hugs and Kisses sweetie
