Oh Believe that is priceless - and why not? Superman wore his underpants over his tights
Well my return to work has been delayed due to snow... my boss just called and told me not to come in. It is white out conditions here wtih a snowfall warning in effect. I will take a picture and see if I can download. I am thinking that it is a sign that I really shouldn't work at all
Well shovelling is good exercise eh?
Love & hugs to all xxxx

cowpower - I'll bet that even though they are picky, they still want to be fed multiple time every day though?

Tazzy there you go! I will send you some cheer vibes as you shovel. I think that is a sign that you're not to work! I'm not going outside though because I think I got a sign too or maybe more like an omen- I looked out and there were a couple of vultures behind my house just kind of standing in the yard and there is nothing dead out there- YET! I'm not risking going out there and falling down. lol Leave it to you to remember that superman wore his undies on the outside; but so true! Glad you got another day off though! Bet it's real pretty now-hope you can download a pic.

Tazzy, can't believe you have so much snow there, and here on the island we have almost nothing. Oh well, I'll take it! Enjoy your day off work!
I am slowly returing to the real world after a month away, but I have not been on the scale yet - too scared, as if that will change anything?! But I love the initiative here, and will have to get up the courage to weigh myself, and post it. Have to go to the gym this morning, but I have no motivation whatsoever for exercise. Did not do much for a whole month except for walking a few times, and swimming now and then. Did a lot of eating though - LOL. So hard to get started again.

Tazzy I just heard that a Westjet plane in Kelowna slid off the runway into a snowbank and it was not even moving - was waiting for de-icing. No wonder your boss called!

Ok girls, let's jump on the treadmill and get this party started. If it isn't raining or snowing, head outside and do some walking (this is MY best medicine-I get inside my head and sort/file away things in my head that I need to put away).
If we know that there are others out there exercising together, it feels like a party. Put believe in your head (with her superwoman outfit on), and exercise right along side her. Boy with her name "believe" and the outfit image, what else do we need for incentive?? Thanks Believe!!0 -
I didn't know Superman wore his underwear on top too!
Many prayers for the little girl who is ill and her family.
I'm checking in before running off the post office. I did my 30 minutes with the Beast earlier. I may officially be over disco!
Snow sounds beautiful but way too cold for this CA girl!
Love all your comments ! I hope to be back here later in the day.
Chris- Jullian is a great name for your bitch. She is so mean! We watched a alittle of the show last night. Good luck on your appt. I go in on Wed.0 -
OK - so I'm starting my investigation into retreat locations for us. I have inquired for more infor for one in the Berkshires which allows for outdoor campfires and has aheated pool.
This one also looks lovely: http://www.refreshingmountain.com Is this is everyones price range? Looks like about $200/night including meals for single occcupancy.
Thoughts on someplace like this?

Quick check in, will be back a little later for longer.
Thanks for all the thoughts and prayers for the little girl, she seems to be improving, they moved her from ICU to a regular unit last evening and so far, so good.
I had my MUGA scan earlier this a.m. so haven't treadmilled yet but I promise I will.
Believe - love the avatar, it would go well with the outfit I wore yesterday morning - nightie (with support), and black socks and shoes - so stylish
Juneau - I tried to click on the link but it didn't work, I will try to type it in after I post and see if that works better.
Off for lunch and groceries0 -
Can you imagine shocked I was when I lost all the weight THEN was diagnosed. After the shock wore off I just had to change my mind set. I need to keep as much weight off as possible so that I know I did everything I could. I keep thinking the more belly fat I have...the more estrogen I produce...and that's no good.
I was never a runner either in Jan 2011. I started only running 30 seconds. I am slow but exercise has turned into my biggest stress reliever. I now think of it like taking a shower. I can't imagine going through the day without doing it. After 90 days it becomes a habit.
I also write down everything I eat. I use WW but there's plenty of free sites that can help. I also post my excercise on facebook. I feel like it keeps me accountable.

Sorry about that websister - I fixed it.
So ladies - how long was it betwee pure suffering and forcing yourself to execise before you began to enjoy it? How did you work your up in energ/time/incline, etc... did you do interval training? Help!
(believe - love, LOVE your outfit!!)

Crisrenee; how did it go? I went to my PS today too. She cleared me to exercise... bitch! As for your size - do you look bigger or is it just your cup size? She told me that the cup sizes are built for a natural breast so the letter won't match what we see as we are traditionally expecting.

Felt something hard and pinchy at my incision under my implant. I got a mirror and took a look and there is a little stitch with a knot in it that worked it's way out. DH said just cut it off. I was going to then I got this imagine that if I did, everything inside would unravel, then my incision would open (even though it's healed all but that little spot where the stitch is) and then my implant would fall out, hit the floor and splat. Probably best I call the PS tomorrow before I cut it now, right?

Yes a plane did slide off the runway - think that tells you how much snow we had here.
I am trying to download pics I took this morning... having some issues, but will keep trying.
I did shovel the driveway and I have a long driveway - so am taking that as my exercise for the day.

Believe- i got my bracelet! Its even more beautiful than the picture, I can't wait to wear it tomorrow. Thank you thank you thank you! I hate to work out so my elliptical is what reminds me of Jillian. She's so mean
Juneau- went to the PS, I have been cleared to workout. He is the one who brought it up first. He asked me how ky weight is.... Boy was that a loaded question as you are sitting there with your boobs hanging out infront of Dr sexy (had to change his name from Dr creepy pervy to Dr sexy). I told him that when I get depressed which is quiet often right now that I turn to food, wasn't going to lie. So I asked him if I was able to get on Jillian, that damn bitch! He said yes just to take it easy at first. I don't think he realizes what I'm trying to commit myself to this year. He did say that my breasts are not like real ones where when you lose weight you lose them in the boobs first. So when i lose weight they will be more pronounced.
I'm not sure if I mentioned this yesterday but I went and got fitted and they said I was a 40D. He did mention that some of that is still the swelling from the Lipo he performed. So as I get done typing this I'm changing into my workout clothes move some things around and me and Jillian are going to rumble. I may be dead if you don't hear back from me, just call 911. Lol. Much love! Chris0 -
Juneaubugg- Hum, I don't remember thinking exercise is fun but I'm looking forward to the results. My surgery was in May. I've been thinking about maybe exercising and then when we got the challenge, I thought I'm in! We can do this together. Teamwork. The first day at 2.5 wasn't bad, didn't even consider an incline although our Beast has that option. As soon as I realized I didn't need a special outfit - it was easy to just do it! I tried going a little faster but I'm not ready. I don't want to fall off break something and end up in the ER. They may not appreciate my outfit as much as you all do. Thanks for all of your kind words!
Chris your boobs sound decadent! Enjoy. I hope Jillian is nice to you. Don't push it your first day. We have the rest of our long lives, right.
One more thing... I bought some sweat pants in size medium. Those are my goal pants, for now. I will be more daring this summer.0 -
Juneau and Chris that is great that you are cleared to workout! Make sure you check in every now and then though so we know you're ok! To encourage you and make you feel better about watching your diet, I went with the family and had the best wings ever last night but when I got on the scale this morning I had gained 3 pounds!!!!!!! Last night while I was eating them I would have said it would be worth it but today, not so much!

believe- my PS said that my girls are still swollen from the lipo and that the swelling should go down just a bit more. We will see. I was able to do 10 mins and walked just over a 1/4 of a mile. Tomorrow my goal is 15 mins and 1/2 a mile. I'm excited to be back on it. It's been almost a year since I've been on it. Here is my new profile pic if I can get it to take on here. This is my before picture.

Believe ....you need to get some pretty panties to wear over the sweats like superman and wear the bra over your shirt like you are doing. While we sure as heck don't want you breaking anything and going to the ER, if you did have to go I am sure that they would appreciate your workout clothes too! Come summer it sounds like you will be ready for a new bikini- but the question is will you wear it alone or over your shirt and shorts?

Juneaubugg and Chrisrenee .....congrats on getting clearance to workout....go for it now💃
Websister....so happy to hear the news about the little girl, that's great.

Chrisrenee.....you look beautiful....I'm sooo jealous of your hair.....looks like your hair alone must way about 5lbs....lol

Thank you! 2fried and believe.
Please don't break anything. Although they would love your outfit, but I'm sure they would also love your committment to fitness too!
I was telling ya'll about my PS, I used to call describe him to my coworkers and family that hasn't seen him as Dr Creepy/pervy. There is something about his face from eyes to nose that reminded me of a Perv. Now as time has gone by, I have found him very attractive and SHHH sexy.... lol so ya'll tell me if you see the creepy/pervy in his pic. lol Don't get me wrong, I'm still very attracted to my man and still find him sexier than any man I could look at.

Hi ladies,
Had a dexa scan today, my first ever. But had asked MO for a baseline to see if Arimidex wrecks havoc with the bones at least I know where I started from....I see MO along with every other Dr. last week of Jan. and even get my first mammo then which is 3 months after rads ended...does that seem quick? My shoulder on the good side has been bothering me since just before dx and think it may be rotator cuff so made appt with ortho for that week too, as well as eye dr, for checkup. fun fun.
2 fried, not giving up on MY trip to Aruba...hubby's company takes us there every 3 of 4 years, I have been there alot and love it!!!!! If I win the lottery (I bought a ticket today gals), I'll happily donate so you and the gang here could all meet me there for that margarita or vodka and lemon ...calgon take me away!!
Ok..going on treadmill shortly to get it over with and then watch bachelor as daughter wants to discuss it over phone, as she lives another state away. I want to know I have a hip bone by feeling it once in my life, not just from a dexa scan..lol!

I must say this is my favorite thread! You all make me LOL multiple times every day!

Chris - I think it's the arched eyebrows. (Not fair!)

Aruba not to be greedy but if you win can you make my donation towards a cruise to aruba to meet you all since I'm chicken and don't fly? LOL Thats so nice that you get to go with your hubbys company. As far as a dexa scan I had my 2nd ever dexa scan a couple months ago and now have osteopenia. Although I am taking Arimedex, it can't be blamed because I had it when I started the Arimedex. Anyway they prescribed actonelfor my bones but I haven't started it yet because I have to take it once a week, 1st thing in the morning and can't have anything to eat or drink for an hour after I take it. I have coffee 1st thing every morning to function, so I haven't been able to decide which day I can postpone my coffee to take my actonel.

Is it just me or are the avatars not lining up with the people making the post For example I read 301724 post but it had believes bra avatar beside it. Maybe I need to reboot.
