Twenty-four hours to my self. To lose all the baby weight. Yeah, none of those things are going to happen by Christmas, so I'll go with:</p> <p>-camera stuff (lens, diffuser, remote)<br /> -a massage<br /> -money to buy some new clothes since I'm no where close to my pre-baby weight<br /> -cookbooks<br /> -cake decorating tools </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-want-for-christmas-1#post-1223657 Mon, 18 Nov 2013 10:52:50 +0000 cascademom 1223657@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MsLipGloss: That's a good way to do it. I try to balance out my indulgences. If I indulge during the day, I won't at night. I find if I have enough fruit, it makes the indulgences more manageable. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-want-for-christmas-1#post-1223654 Mon, 18 Nov 2013 10:51:44 +0000 pinkcupcake 1223654@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>A Kitchen Aid mixer!! </p> <p>Or if Santa and his elves could use some magic.... I'd love to magically wake up 15 LBS lighter. Sigh. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-want-for-christmas-1#post-1223648 Mon, 18 Nov 2013 10:48:59 +0000 MsLipGloss 1223648@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@cascademom: It helps to take it one meal/day at a time . . . No guilt! If I indulge (whether it be planned or spur-of-the-moment), I try to enjoy it, and then get right back on the wagon with the next meal! It's not perfection that matters . . . just consistency! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-want-for-christmas-1#post-1223646 Mon, 18 Nov 2013 10:48:32 +0000 bushelandapeck 1223646@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'd like a new purse and a right hand ring but I probably won't get either since I haven't mentioned it to DH and I don't have anything in particular in mind. I'd also go for a massage or a night away with DH and without LO. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-want-for-christmas-1#post-1223639 Mon, 18 Nov 2013 10:46:04 +0000 cascademom 1223639@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MsLipGloss: Thanks. This week, I've indulged in chocolate covered oreos and Tootsie Rolls. Being thinner during the holidays will help in general. I'm hoping to be down close to goal weight by New Year's. If not, I won't be too upset since I'm pushing off TTC for awhile longer. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-want-for-christmas-1#post-1223624 Mon, 18 Nov 2013 10:40:13 +0000 MsLipGloss 1223624@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@cascademom: With a little activity here and there, I bet you will totally come out like a champ! You have been so on it lately! </p> <p>@chopsuey: @cascademom: @QueensBee: I am totally hearing *Eye of the Tiger* in my head . . . !</p> <p><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=btPJPFnesV4" rel="nofollow">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=btPJPFnesV4</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-want-for-christmas-1#post-1223612 Mon, 18 Nov 2013 10:36:50 +0000 cascademom 1223612@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MsLipGloss: Oh yeah, weight loss goals. I hope to lose a fair amount of weight before staying with DH's grandma and her Southern cooking. I'm going to have to be hardcore on my WW points during Thanksgiving and Christmas. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-want-for-christmas-1#post-1223605 Mon, 18 Nov 2013 10:35:20 +0000 MsLipGloss 1223605@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@chopsuey: Yes! 100% :) 6 pounds from today . . . ! I have never been so excited about salad and lean protein in my whole life, hahaha! I am also dragging DH along for the ride with me, bless his heart! :P </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-want-for-christmas-1#post-1223601 Mon, 18 Nov 2013 10:34:50 +0000 cascademom 1223601@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Same as @mrbee. LO isn't in daycare from Dec. 20-Jan. 1. I'm going to be super tired during that time.</p> <p>I would love not to go down to see the inlaws. Since that won't happen, lots of booze to get through it and sleep. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-want-for-christmas-1#post-1223600 Mon, 18 Nov 2013 10:34:50 +0000 sheskrafty 1223600@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>A right handed ring with LO's birthstone. Or a massage. Nevermind, definitely a massage! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-want-for-christmas-1#post-1223596 Mon, 18 Nov 2013 10:33:18 +0000 brownie 1223596@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Enough money for another ivf </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-want-for-christmas-1#post-1223517 Mon, 18 Nov 2013 10:09:51 +0000 chopsuey 1223517@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MsLipGloss: haha goal is to be down 6lbs by j's party!

I should be able to get close I think . . . but hey, I will take any and all progress! :P</p> <p>@QueensBee: I can't imagine a *clean* Thanksgiving, but I am sure going to try (although a little slice of pumpkin pie won't kill all my efforts!). I am trying to plan out what events we have so that I can try to stick to my plan as well as I can . . . and then for holiday days and a few events, I am going to allow mahselfs to have just a few treats. But nothing like I normally would! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-want-for-christmas-1#post-1223430 Mon, 18 Nov 2013 09:53:07 +0000 QueensBee 1223430@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MsLipGloss: Same! It's such a hard time of year to eat clean though! I wouldn't need any gifts if I could just fit into my pre-baby wardrobe. :happy: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-want-for-christmas-1#post-1223286 Mon, 18 Nov 2013 09:07:31 +0000 blackbird 1223286@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>massage<br /> bath stuff<br /> socks<br /> iphone 5<br /> gift cards to sephora/kindle cards/etc. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-want-for-christmas-1#post-1223224 Mon, 18 Nov 2013 08:31:17 +0000 GrapeCrush 1223224@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>A new wardrobe.
