Good evening!
You remember Chunky Dunker’s, right? Well, tonight, we are going to get back into the habit of supporting each other on a weekly basis.
Re-starting now, I will post a new Chunky Dunker’s article ever Wednesday evening, and you will have the opportunity to comment, and cheer each other as you each go through your journey to get fit and healthy!!! We will discuss hints, tips, and ideas on losing weight, staying motivated, and achieving your fitness goals, whether that is to lose 5 pounds, to do 10 sit-ups, or just incorporate some healthy habits into your daily life!!
An update for how things are going for me…well…Life is going pretty darn good. I am doing a couple of dance classes every Monday, Zumba twice week, and fitting in walks and swimming sessions wherever I can. I am tracking my food daily on the Livestrong website, which seems to help keep me on the straight and narrow nutrition-wise. I haven’t lost any weight, but I have lost inches, so that is good! Right??
Anyway, I am excited to get this posted and hear how everyone is doing this evening – it has been too long! So, I will meet you in the comments section!! 😉
Have a FABULOUS evening!! 
Good evening! How is everyone doing on your fitness and health goals??
Of course inches matter!!!! Good for you doing all these fitness fun things. I haven’t swam in three days becuz the pool was green! But it will be ready tomorrow!! I have lost a total of 58lbs since I moved to Arizona!!!
Wow, Sis!! You have totally amazed me!!! AND you and Jennifer are why I have gotten back to getting down to business! 🙂
Oh, and green pool??? Yeah that would keep me out too! YUCK!!
How has your week gone??
Finally home! I was zooming! Week is fine. Really loving my job!!!
Oh, that is GREAT!!! Doesn’t that make such a difference??? Work is getting better for me too. 😉
The green pool would be healthy enough….all that nutrients
lol
Ew, that is just too gross!!! You can get your daily vitamins another way!! 😉
How is your week going, Jennifer??
Same old thing….nothing new. Still stuck on my weight.
well, at least overall you are still down. Do you feel any better than the old you?
Uhhhh..yeahhhhhh…no!
Not really. I feel skinnier than I look.
LOL!! I do to, but I still feel like I am 100 pounds less than I am, so I just have to get my body back in sync with my mind!! 😉
Are you excited about Women of Faith?
Very much so. So is Trina.
Yes, me too!! I am glad I got a a room at our favorite hotel too!! WHOO-HOO!! 😉
OH JEALOUS!!!!!
I know, we would LOVE it if you could go!! Nette decided not to go this year. This is my first year without her – it feels very weird!!! Plus, now I have to drive!!! Sorry Jennifer and Trina!! 😉
You know, I saw you this week, and you are looking pretty darn skinny – compared to the Jennifer from even a year ago, so you keep up the dang good job, baby!! 😉
Hey Feff. OK so I went to the Doc today and had an ultra-sound. No DVT woot. But I am 443lbs.
No blood clots??? WHOO-HOO!!! Gained weight? BOOO!!!! No worries, Love – you are doing all the right stuff!! and your feet are looking much better tonight!! 😉
Just go swimming in Alex’s pool and you will be cured.
He is not paying attention, Don is here and he is talking to him.
But that was funny!!!
Oh, OK!
I thought he would like it.
yes, I am sure he will!! 😉
What is the ultrasound for????
To check his legs for more blood clots (DVTs). His legs have been looking pretty bad lately. My non-medical opinion it is because he had been sitting too long, because whenever we go swimming his legs almost look back to normal.
So, on top of all of the dancing I am doing, I am trying to make sure we get to the pool together between 3 and 4 times a week – no wonder I am so dang wiped out!!! 😉
Oh thank heavens! I sure hope he is able to start dropping some of the weight. It will help his legs a lot!!!
I need to lose at least another 60lbs to make my bad leg feel better.
Jennifer, do you even have another 60 pounds you can lose??
Alex is on her way, and Jason will be back on as soon as Don leaves for the evening!
Where’s Alice and Trina??
I had to walk away for a min to wash myself up from all the paint.
Watcha paintin’?
The log cabins are done being painted with snow, but I havent put on the lights yet. I am looking for little wreaths to go on them as well. I am also painting a few piggy panks I have had for awhile. Also the other frames I bought at the craft warehouse.
Did you find snow paint??
Yes I did. Michael’s already has some Christmas supplies out. When they are finished I will show you a pic of them. They look good so far. I think. Also I went online to the company that makes these frames to get them cheaper and they dont sell them to individuals only to stores.
I can help you with that! 🙂
and yes, I can’t wait to see pics!!! 😉 I still don’t know what I am going to make yet! probably Christmas ornaments, or jewelry, I guess!
I would love to get more log cabins since I think they are coming out cute.
I dont know about Alice. Trina is sitting on the couch with me.
Tell her to get on! 🙂 Is her computer still on the fritz???
No its not. She is just in the middle of a timed game.
Dude! Trina – get on you silly girl!! You can play that game any ol’ time!! 🙂
I just told her and she laughed.
LOL! Of course she did! Did she stop her game???
Alex, how is your blog going? I keep checking for new posts, and none yet. 🙁
I know I was just thinking about my blog. I will get back on it this week.
Ok, good! Because if anything, you have one loyal fan who is craving more!!! 😉
Jennifer said I had to get on so you (Chrissy) would stop talking to her. lol ^_^
Tee hee
I said through me not to me.
I got it wrong, it was through her, but…this was still funny.
Yes, close enough!! That was my next line of defense! You know a girls gotta do what a girls gotta do!! 😉
OK I am back. Hey did you guys know I am writing my book now.
What book?
I already have the first chapter ready for editing.
yes I remember you telling me when I was at your house a couple of days ago.
The Book is called Awakenings. Its a Sci-fi Fiction. Takes place 800 years after Mass Nuclear War, and an event occurs that releases magic back into the world.
Holy macaroni Jaybird! That sounds freakin awesome!
I know, right??? I am so excited that I am going to be married to an author, and I don’t even have to get divorced to have that happen!! 😉
It’s about time you start writing them…I think you read all the sci fi’s out there
OMG!! My roomie’s dog Lulu is crazy funny!!!! She chases reflects on the sunlight on the pool that is on the cieling and her newest obsession is the red light from under my mouse. I move it all over the floor or ceiling and she is totally trying to chase it and then barks at me when I stop. LIKE HELLLLOOOHHHH!!! Don’t stop!
Chrissy’s dogs dont have that much energy.
lol thats too cute.
Until she barks! She is a pit bull but sweet and not so bulky with muscles. That bark is seriously loud and piercing
I have heard her over Skype and she is really loud!!! 😉 But I just LOVE her name!! Lulu!! Maybe we can have a daughter and name her that, love?? 😉
I can totally see you and Jason have a little girl name Lulu
Sophie did when she was a puppy!! Jason would drive her crazy with his lazer pointer, and she used to frantically chase flies too – and then freak out if she ever accidentally caught one!! Silly girl!! No, my girls are getting kind old!! 😉
And we all love those girls!
Awwwww…we do too!! 😉
Jennifer has frames on her arms for fun. I am not related to her.
She is saying, “Look at my fah-bulously original bling dahhhh-ling!!!” 😉
Exactly!
So for me, I am, at the last time I weighed myself, 251lbs. That is the lightest that I have been in a few years. I have been slacking off some, but I have been doing more running around work and more lifting of heavy things, but I need to do more. Not too great for me all in all.
Still sounds good and at least maintaining that loss is great as well Trina! Baby steps and serious kudos!
At least I still am kind of getting a work out at work carrying things around the store like bigger pieces of equipment and big bags of clothes. I did play some with some kids here today, but that wasn’t much, but it was fun.
Yes, ABSOLUTELY!!! I would love to say I am at the lowest I have been in a few years! Hang in there love and keep doing the right things, it will happen!! and even if it doesn’t you will feel FABULOUS!!! 😉
It is also very entertaining to Christopher and I
Trina’s posts arent going through.
HOw are you doing Trina?
Oh, let me check on my end!! 😉
GROSS!!! She just dripped slobber on my mouse! And I put my fingers right on it>…… ICK!
Quick! get the hand sanitizer STAT!!! 😉
Eeeewwww. Seriously, DUDE!
LMAO!!!!! Christina
I hate when Jason does that as well. LOL!!!
LMFAO!!!!! That actually mean Laughing my fat ass off… get your head’s out of the gutter! You girls make me laugh so freakin hard
Yes, I initially thought the other meaning too!! LOL!! Chunky Dunkers is fun, we seriously need to keep this going!!
Jason and I went grocery shopping last night and loaded up on SOOOO MANY HEALTHY FOODS!! Eating all of my pre-planned meals today that Jason packed for me was actually FUN!! 😉
Jason needs to get that fixed. Isn’t there anything you can get Jason, Chrissy?
I am very proud of your accomplishments Christina and Jay! Keep up the good work
Actually I am proud of all of our accomplishments…every single one of us! Think about where we were this time last year! EVeryone give yourselves a pat on the back!
What Trina? Get something to fix Jason’s drooling, like what? A bib??
That might work, or maybe a teething ring. I know where to find both of those. We have tons at work.
Alex, you are soooo right!! We have come a FREAKIN’ long way!! Last year, I was a couch potato who was too tired to even pretend to be living my life!! Life has gotten so much better!! 😉
Brat—->Jenn
you know you love me 😀
Yeah I do. Hey Trina, you ready come dog-sit for a couple of years.
LOL Jay…good try
Are you just maybe hinting at something, just maybe? lol Aren’t you going to ask Jennifer that too?
Was that subtle, or what??? LOL! Jennifer would kick our butts if we stole Trina, so that means only one thing!! They will have to come up as a set, and dog-sit together!! SOUNDS FUN, RIGHT??? 🙂
Very funny. Keep trying.
Yeah, that was very subtle. Nice, but not yet. But keep trying.
Okay sisters..and brother….time for me to head off here. Need to read through my emails and get some water! I LOVE YOU ALL!! And cannot wait to touch base next Wednesday!
Ok, talk to you later.
ok yeah. Its a plan
k…have a good night.
Good idea!!! Let’s call it a night, but first I want to say thank you to all of you! Without you, I would not be where I am right now, and where that is, is HAPPY!!! SERIOUSLY!!! I will see you all again next Wednesday, OH and with your help, I have hit 10,000 hits tonight!!! YEAH!!!! 😉
Thank you!! and have a FABULOUS evening!! 😉

Night, love you.
Goodnight Sis
Please know you were an inspiration to me too….reading the CDC post! I lost 20lbs reading and feeling like i was in a support group- or at least had one if i needed one. Keep it up…love you!
Flo, that is soooo awesome!! and WAY TO GO on the weight loss!!! I can’t WAIT until I get to tell you the same thing!!!
I love you, Auntie!!! Keep up the great work, and thanks for commenting – you made my evening!! 😉

Ok so I am glad I am not the only one losing inches but the scale has not moved… man it is killing me…
Tabatha,
No, you are not alone, I am right there with you!! Losing inches is nice, don’t get me wrong, but I have soooo much weight to lose, if the scale could just start moving downwards, I would be ONE HAPPY GIRL!!! 😉
By the way, welcome to Chunky Dunker’s! As you can see, we talk about a lot of everything!!!
I hope to see you again soon!! 😉
~Christina 😉
