My husband also says that he won't exercise but he uses the excuse that he is so big that he would put too much stress on his knees and he will start to excercise once he's lost 10 pounds --- Well, he lost 15 already, and still hasn't hit the gym once.Great job both of you!!We have been dieting about the same length of time and with roughly the same idea (calorie reduction) and same amt of lbs to lose (65-75), since Feb or so with a 2 week WDW break in May, and some cheat days here and there. He has a semi-active job, doesn't exercise, and has lost about 20-25 lbs, and I have a sedentary job and have become a gym rat and have lost 40... so he looks at me the other day and goes wow you are a lot smaller, hmm, maybe exercise DOES help!

ah well...i am not one that believes in deprivation anyway, just moderation !
I paid off the Disney trip yesterday....with the Disney Visa. Does that count? 46 days, baybee!!!
LYNDA....Why did the novicaine shot hurt so much??? That's so weird. If a doctor gives me a choice of stitches or no stitches.....I'd choose NO stitches. You're a brave girl!
on 46 days! I CAN'T WAIT! This is what concerns me with the plan. With so much more limited choices of places to eat, it's going to be super hard to get your reservations. You are going to have to make dinning reservations before you can even book your Trip.
Seriously, is it going to be worth it if you can't eat where you want? They should drop the price with all the changes. I don't thing they dropped it enough if they are taking out tipping.
Lynda: Your injury stories make for some great reading. I tell you.........hope you are feeling better.
Maybe you should start a hurt report thread. Just kidding!
Well, thanks! The toe is feeling a bit better today. I wrapped it a little less bulkily. (Not sure that is a word.) My arm is still sore from the tetanus. I would have thought that would be gone by now. Maybe it will be by the end of the day.
Kat GREAT post!! Thank you for sharing your experience - WTG on the loss!!
Great job both of you!!

You guys are awesome for motivation and support! 
This thread is exactly what I needed!
Since subscribing to the Peeps thread last week, I got a great start on exercising and eating right.
Then, Friday, I came down with a horrible cold. (The dangers of working closely with kiddos!) So that derailed my exercise plans!
On the positive side, I have not had an appetite since I got the cold, so I haven't been eating much. I am feeling better now and I think I will return to the gym tomorrow.
Thanks so much, everyone, for the motivation I needed to get myself started.

sorry about your cold..hope you feel better!
i agree, this thread is fabulous!!!
so he woke up Joshua--our day began with everyone awake at 5:30. I was hoping for a least 30 min. of no one bothering me after my shower, but nope didn't happen. DH took DD to school--she usually would ride a shuttle bus between my school and hers, but she is now at a new school and there is not one yet. ANyway he has never done the early morning thing--he left he house at 6:50 and with the way traffic was he did not get her there until 7:25--it should have only taken 10 minutes max. THen he had to take youngest DS to daycare and had to fight all the traffic leacivng the school--his roundtrip should have only taken 30 minutes b/c it is basically like a 5 mile circle and it took him one hour to get where he needed to go. Hopefully this will all get better--Our school starts at 8:15 and the last bus did not show up until after 9:00. I just pray they are here when school lets out at 3:20 
Drink all your water. He really is not a fan of the healthy eating. Would rather eat whatever he wants (wouldn't we all) and has noticed it starting to catch up with him. So he's started walking in the evenings -- he's usually waiting on the porch, ready to go, when I get home from aerobics. 
Oh well!
I am sore and run out of energy quicker than I'd like. However, I always feel good afterwards! So, I'll keep it up! Yes, I know exercise is worth it in the end!
Today school offically started. Was going to post before going to work, but oldest DS set his alarm for the loudest setting ang then could not turn it off
I go back to the Dr. on Thurs. and hopefully we can decide when to have this baby. I know that he is working the weekend that we want to induce so that is a good thing.
Hope all is going well with everyone. Have a great day---Oh, yeah the heat index here has been around 105 for the past week and will continue--nothing like the humidity
Yikes! Stay out of the heat woman!
When do you want to have the baby?
The books went out today. DH forgot to take them yesterday.
I will take a cold water bottle out with me.
