miss p, a tear of joy just rolled down my cheek.  I think a little potentially misplaced pride was in there too.

I made it through the Thanksgiving gauntlet +/- 1 lb.  Maybe the alcohol sped up my metabolism.  As for Miss P, a lil pudge on a girl is cute.  :p

I tweaked my ankle back in October and only this last week have been able to return to my usual jogging regimen. I tried on a pair of girl's jeans earlier in the week and discovered I wasn't a size 6 anymore. When I got on the scale I realized I had gained 14 pounds so I'm a disgusting fat slob now and can commiserate with anyone's thanksgiving gains.

i'm on the +5 side myself, presently working on it.  the gym was much more conveniently located for me in DC, football season started (which means beer), and that weekend in vegas was pure excess.
 
 and for the latecomers to the party: 930clubber's original post that started this thread was the newbie'ish "will the Washington Social Club show sell out in advance".  miss p busted him.  clubber does get a few points for turning an embarrassing situation into a funny, but it's still embarrassing.

What's +5 lbs underneath a formless parka anyway.  I say hibernate in the winter and slim it off in the spring.

2004: 184 lbs.

it's the price one pays to not have to deal with:

 b) the CA real estate market,

 a fair trade-off, methinks.

That's because you're *renting*.  Try buying a place in SF and compare that to buying the equivalent in DC or the DC metro area.  It's much worse in CA than it is here in terms of the inflation of property values.

That makes sense. The positive way you carry on about your current life, I figured you're there for good.

His illness helped him lose 26 pounds. My eye didn't  aid me in any weightloss.
 
 If I could lose 26 pounds just be enduring walking pneumonia, I'd jump all over that.

i asked for a juicer for christmas which facilitates the weight loss when used in accordance with a raw vegan diet. today i've drank:
 1 carrot
 1 orange
 4 tangerines
 2 apples
 1 beet
 half a cucumber
 half a honeydew melon
 i also had a banana and half an avocado, because hey, i need a little fiber and potassium. i wish i could believe that i'd keep this kind of thing up but after drinking my dinner, i just felt sick.
Title: Re: holiday slimming
Post by: 930clubber on January 02, 2008, 01:36:00 am
The juicer discards the fiber, which I find to be filling and appetite curbing.  One huge apple, found at the Asian markets, keeps me stuffed for hours.
 
 I agree on the nutritional value of your foods; why not just eat them?

I'm hoping to lose 14 pounds before hitting the beaches of the Cote D'Azur in June. I'm not sure how I'll do it, as I already work out seven days a week. I guess I need to cut down on portion size.

you could go back to school.  i managed to lose 5 lbs and i wasn't doing anything different than i normally do...watch my portions and work out regularly.  So i chalked it up to the stress of grad school finals   :p   wasn't really looking to lose weight, but now that i've lost a few lbs, i'm going to see if i can keep losing

I dropped like ten pounds and 3 or 4 inches in the waist since college.  All-you-eat at the cafeteria  lunch and dinner with the soda fountain and high sodium helps pack the pounds.
 
 Miss P should give us an update on her 2008 Jenny  Craig program progress.

this women called into the howard stern show today, which could of been a fake call, claiming her child was about to be taken away from her because the poor girl is considered to be very obese and the mother suggested purging as a way to lose weight.  how much weight can one actually lose buy eating an almost whole bag of mini snickers bars and then "not so quietly" doing the deed in the shower?
Title: Re: holiday slimming
Post by: 930clubber on January 08, 2008, 07:43:00 pm
if snickers and the like are the foundations of her diet and she purges the whole of her caloric intake then i suppose that would work, if done religiously.
 
 i must say -- those post-holiday sale packs of mini-snickers bars at the store beckon to be consumed.
