andreaphilip3, trixiepup, and QuilterINVA Hope all of you are doing great. Andrea congrats. on the loss. Nice to know that you can relate to my situation and feelings with weight loss. trixiepup I use to lift weights and it really helps. Have fun at the gym. QuilterINVA You are so right, it is important to keep moving. You've motivated me to exercise right now. No excuses! Thanks for the support and motivation.
Good morning, ladies. What a change of weather we have had in Virginia - from high 90s earlier in the week to 60s this morning...walking weather!
The weekend is upon us...time to set our resolve to stay OP, drink our water and get some exercise in! For once I don't have a quilting class to teach this weekend so I have it all to myself. I'm going to paint my bathroom - a bit of exercise in that as well.
Tizme2000, there is a video called Chair Aerobics for diabled people that will really give you a workout. I have asthma so I can't always exercise, either. I usually have a harder time in the winter.
THanks for the info I shall try and get it if we have it in England. You are lucky with your weather all we get here is grey dull skies AND LOTS OF RAIN. Our summers seem to have gone for ever. Temps to day 60 and thats warm here we never get above 70 to 75.

i found them online and bought them. i bought the chair dancing, chair dancing through the decades, sit down and tone up 1 and 2, and the richard simmons sit tight.
i currently have richards reach for fitness and a tape called keep fit while you sit.
Thank you Quilter for the e.mail with addy on Have now gone on the site and will browse till I get it sorted. I will try and get hold of excercise tape, havent seen one about though but will look in our shops this week. I was never told to take tablets before breakfast so am going to try that as well to see if I feel better. Thet have no time for you here you pop a repeat prescription in a box and get a new one and go for months without seeing a doctor. I suppose the only thing is you get what you pay for and ours is free when senior citizen.
regards and thanks for help.

If we order something from US it is so difficult with customs to get things delivered so we tend not to bother but I will try and get it here. Had fun today. Sitting in the garden and helecopter came in VERY low his engine on fire and crashed 450 yards from our house.
We live right by the beach and the marine camp is next to us then an open field and he managed to get it down there saving hundreds of lives and all four crew managed to scramble to safety before it blew up. It shook our house rigid and all sorts of explosions going off from the gear they carry. The coast guard are with out a copter till tomorrow now so the police copter is protroling till theyt can get back into action. They missed a big holiday com-plex full of caravans and a housing estate, they were so lucky to get out alive, there is nopthing left of their craft but twisted metal.
love

Wow, you live an exciting life! We live near a large Air Force base and have the occasional scare but so far no crashes since we've been here. Thank goodness!
You might be able to find an outlet for the tapes in England or something similiar. Try doing a search for handicapped aerobics or exercise.
Back on track today. I had a bad weekend, food-wise. Ate far too many carbs that I didn't even enjoy. Sometimes I wonder if my brain becomes disengaged.
my mom retired this weekend, and i found a great brunch for sunday. it was sooo yummy. i had a huge salad wiht all sorts of veggies i'm too lazy to cut up on my own. and a waffle wiht strawberries. yum.
i went to the gym 4 times last week, and i did cardio and weights on each visit. yea me! friday was a pissy day. the eliptical trainer attacked me, and i have a big gouge on my knee now.
i love the gym in our work building. it's empty, for the most part, and i can put my cds on the sound system. i wonder if i can get a gre cram course and put that on the stereo....hmmmm
Its the first very serious crash so close to us but as we have the special boat marines next to us we are always on the alert for terriorists. We do live life on the edge here and often get stopped and searched and car gone over with a tooth comb. My friend lives by the main gate and they know me well, but I still get sxtopped every time to try to park in her drive in case I am a car bomber. Still you cant say life is boring!!!!!!
Hello Ladies! I am now down 4 lbs. I'm at 186 lbs. and only have 1 more pound to reach my end of the month goal of 185. Feeling good and loving life. Thank you all for the support.
