Afternoon Deb! Just popping in to check on ya. How you been and how's that back doing?!

Take good care of you and have a marvelous Monday

Hey Everyone and thanks for stopping by! My back is doing ok...I had to make 2 trips to the chiropractor last week and I am going again tomorrow. I am looking into getting my baby out of her infant car seat and that will be done in the next few weeks! That should make a big difference! (or at least I pray that it will:)
Judi - we have a jacuzzi tub and I just don't use it enough...I am going to soak in it tonight!! That should help
Lisa- I would have paid to see some of the guys I know in a Zumba class - man that sure paints a funny picture in my mind....they would be dieing in the first few minutes....haha
As far as being beachy I went to a clothing party on Sat afternoon and have a few "misguided" selections, and a party at our house on Saturday night and a few more "iffy" selections and then on Sunday we had lunch after church and well....I think you've figured it out by now..... Not a terrible weekend, just not an extremely beachy one! I expect to go up a bit on the scale or hopefully just stay the same....I would so take that right now!!
I hope everyone is doing well and I will check in on you soon!
Take care all and have a great week!
P.S. My DD#2 is continuing to only get up a couple times a night!! Yay!!

Glad you are better. Have a nice long soak in the jacuzzi. It really helps muscle aches and pains, and is good for you head too!

Woman what is your problem having a jacuzzi tub and not using it??!! Get on top of that

Glad you're feeling better and wishing you a terrific Tuesday

Hey Judi - thanks for stopping in!!
Wanda, I don't know what the problem is with the jacuzzi tub....I think about how great it would feel to be in there but I just don't have the energy once I get the kids to bed! I guess I will have to jump in before the kids go to bed and let my husband man the fort I would so love that!!
I have been reading posts when I get a chance this week. This past week has been very busy around my house! My husband's grandmother had to go in for a preop appt yesterday and she will be 95 on Saturday and we spend almost 5 hours in the hospital...........it was a long afternoon. And he potassium was waaaayyy too high and the anethesiologist kind of freaked out about it!! Her kidneys are not functioning properly and this needs to get sorted out by next week or they will not go ahead with the stomach scope! She is already on meds so hopefully things are better soon!
My DD#1 went to daycare this morning just for the Valentine's party and boy, was she excited!! I'm so glad that she had fun. DD#2 and I just relaxed at home!
We have a birthday party to go to for my DH's grandmother tomorrow for her 95th and we've invited some family and not told her so it should be lots of fun!!
I have been eating quite well and so hoping to break into the 130s this week!! That would be so amazing!! It would certainly be the motivation I need to keep exercising consistently!! My back has been doing better latley!! Yayy!!
Have a wonderful weekend all and Happy Valentine's Day!!

I was a little "bad" last night. It was my grandma's 95th surprise bday party and I had filet mignon (sooo super yummy!!), a bit of brown rice and veges! It was sooo good and I ate up every bite, which I'm sure was a very large serving!! I also had a small taste of her cake which was pretty good as well! I sure don't expect to lose this week, but I am sure hoping that I maintain. There's always next week, right?? lol
I have been doing ok but I am so tired today and I have been snacking which isn't usual for me! We didn't get home last night until 11 and then got the kids to bed so it was 12 before I went to bed. It was worth it, the look on her face when she walked in the restaurant and saw everyone was so awesome!! Oh well, tomorrow is another day!

I am doing well on the beach today and will be doing at least abs and stretching today. My chiropractor gave me some exercises to do so I can strengthen my abs and support my lower back so I am not in so much pain and I have not been to see him now since a week ago today! (I know that doesn't sound like very long but lately, for me it is good!) I am still struggling with the exercise thing and beating myself up about it.............grrr! I have been at the same weight for a few weeks now and that is frustrating especially because I am so close to the 130s that it is just dangling in front of my face!! I guess I just need to want it more and get off my butt and do some exercise!! I can so do this...........I know I can!! 130s here I come.............that is my goal for the week! Tomorrow is my weigh in day so I wills tart working ion it today!! Have a great week everyone! I have enjoyed taking in some of the Olympics lately..........it is pretty exciting that it is Vancouver this year! Go Canada!!

[teachermomof2]

Ok, so I have SOOOO needed to get a fire lit under my butt to get me focused and today it happened!! I am back to my wedding day weight today.............................WOO-HOO!! I will be woo-hooing all day long...........I can hardly believe it!! I am so close to the 130s I can practically tastet it....................so to speak beacuse I am sure it would taste very good!!
I have been at the same weight for a couple weeks now but with the kids sick, my uncle passing away and appointments with my 95 year old grandma (they cancelled her stomach scope this morning )the stress is bound to have an effect! None of that is in my control so there is nothing I can do about it but move on!!
I did my abs exercises yesterday and stretched out like crazy!! I will get some exercise in today.......if it kills me.......and it might!!

WOO HOO DEB!!! Yay for you! That's awesome!

Wish I had a jacuzzi tub to soak in. DH and I had a great time in our 'private' hot tub at our B&B in Key West I won't give you the details but it was really fun!!

Keep up the great work.

I'm still WOO-HOOING for you Deb!! That's awesome to have reached a mildstone. Proof that you're doing something right while being healthy for your body..kudos to you

Sounds like you're on the E-Train too...full speed ahead I'm trying to catch up. Wishing you a terrific Thursday!

[mrsgjr]

Hey Deb! Hope you had healthy travels on the Beach this weekend and wishing you a super Sunday

[jhderm]

Hi Deb
I am back from FL, just wanted to join the woohoos. You are doing great. Hope grandma is OK.
Have a great week!
Judi

[teachermomof2]

Hey Lisa, Wanda and Judie - thanks for stopping by!! (and thanks for the woo-hoos.............. )

Lisa - I'm so sorry that your trip wasn't all you had hoped for, what a bummer!! Your new profile pic looks great!!

Judi - grandma is ok! Her bday was a blast and the preop appt went well except for the potassium level. They cancelled the stomach scope...........her potassium level was too high so rescheduling.........hopefully soon (this week...maybe?). She seems to be doing ok about it but we have waited a long time for the appt and then it gets cancelled. It's just frustrating.)

Anyway, all is beachy in my world!! I'm doing well. Time to dunk the kids in the tub and in bed so we'll chat with you all later!
