Hello Ladies
Mooz - I guess it's just you & me this week... Lauri is on vacation & I'm not sure where Semo & Spkrleyes are? As Taz would say "I hope there not in a corner eating candy). I'm still getting ready for vacation or as you say Holiday. I got a list going of what all I need to do, or buy. It seems i have been so busy I really haven't focused on my eating or exercise. I keep telling myself when I get back from vacation, there are no excuses. I have got to get back on track. We'll I need to run, talk to you tomorrow... |
Good Morning:
Mooz it is OK to call me Norma. I spell spkrleyes weird because someone else had the screen name Sparkleyes. How is thing going with you? Where do you get all the cute things such as the scale you have on today? I have lost 3 1/2 pds this week. Rubber Band is working you dont put anything in your mouth without thinking. 1 Day: Where are you going on Vacation? It sure is a lot of work to get started. No Candy in corners for me this week. It is WALK WALK and I joined a gym called Curves. I really enjoy it. Well I better get off this computer and take my walk. It is 5:00 AM and if I wait any longer I will not walk. Have a good day.

GOOD MORNING CHICKS!! I walked 3 miles last night but I did not go linedancing as I was so tired. The above is the sort of weekend I dream of but it never happens does it?? Norma - CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR 3.5 POUNDS LOSS!! I think I will get a rubber band too!! I get most of the images from www.123greetings.com They are easy to put in the message - if you don't know how I will try and tell you as I did not have a clue a the start. Patty - you will probably be back from your holiday before you get a chance to check in again but if you do have a great time and make wise choices!! Take Care All Anne WATER 8 GLASSES A DAY KEEPS THE FAT AWAY WATER - THE TRANSPARENT, COLORLESS LIQUID (H2O) WHICH FALLS FROM THE SKY AS RAIN, ISSUES FROM THE GROUND IN SPRINGS, AND COMPOSES 3/4 OF THE EARTH'S SURFACE IN THE FORM OF SEAS, RIVERS, LAKES, ETC. Water is probably the single, most important, catalyst in losing weight and keeping it off. One of the things we take for granted, water plays a very IMPORTANT role in permanent weight loss. It aids in suppressing the appetite naturally, and metabolizing stored fat. Studies show that a decrease in water intake causes fat deposits to increase, whereas as increase in water intake can actually reduce fat deposits. The kidneys do not function properly without enough water. It is important to note that the kidneys require water, and that other liquids do not replace water. Soda-pop, coffee, tea, juice, beer, etc., all have a different osmolality than the blood, so water from these drinks will be taken out of the blood when the blood reaches the kidneys. Dehydration occurs, and when this occurs, some of the kidney's load is passed on to the liver. The liver works to metabolize stored fat into usable energy for the body. If the liver has to aid the kidneys, it can't function efficiently. Consequently, the liver metabolizes less fat; thus, fat remains stored in the body and weight loss ceases. Many people whose bodies retain water drink less water, hoping to eliminate the problem. The body sees this action as a threat to its survival, so it attempts to hold on to every drop. Water is then stored in spaces outside the body's cells. This causes swollen feet, hands, and legs. Diuretics offer only temporary relief. The best way to overcome excess water retention is to give the body what it needs - PLENTY OF WATER. Only then can stored water be released. Overweight people need more water than thin people. Larger people have a large metabolic load. Water also helps to maintain proper muscle tone by giving muscles their natural ability to contract. It helps prevent sagging skin that often follows weight loss. Shrinking cells are plumped up by water. The complexion then appears clear, healthy and resilient. Water also flushes waste from the body, and thus eliminates constipation. The endocrine gland's function improves, thus the entire system functions more efficiently. Water not only accomplishes all of the above, it also works with the fiber to create a satisfied feeling and helps subdue hunger pains. At least 8 to 10 eight ounce glasses of water per day is recommended. |
Good Morning Ladies

Good afternoon chicks - just a very quick visit - have a good weekend all and Patty you enjoy your holiday - you deserve it. Blessings in the making What would be the point of living if there were no challenges to overcome? What would give you joy if there was nothing that could bring you sadness? How could you feel warm if there was no such thing as cold? How could you know pleasure if there wasn't any pain? Before you curse the darkness, consider that it provides the light with a place to shine. Before you curse the problems, keep in mind that they're what give value to the accomplishments. Life's greatest treasures are those to which you give the most commitment. Challenges and difficult efforts are blessings in the making. The more you put into life, the more richly you will live it. The dark days are filled with incredible opportunity. See that opportunity, know it and live it, and the bright days will be joyous indeed. -- Ralph Marston Take Care All Ann |
Hi gals, just a quick stop to let you know that I probably won't be stopping in much for a while. We are having problems with the internet and until further notice they have asked us not to use it for personal use (as if anyone would actutally do such a thing on company time). So don't send a search party out for me. Hope everyone has a great forth. Bye for now.

http://www.quotationpostcards.com/ca...hieHifler1.jpg GOOD MORNING CHICKS!! - this thread has gone very quiet!! I walked 6 miles yesterday and my eating was OP. I drank 1.5 litres of water but I should really have had 2!! . WELCOME KIMBERLY - in answer to your question I walk every day at least 2 miles and have done 9 miles but only on 1 day. I don't run - Lauri is the runner on this thread - what about you? I thought this thread was fading out until you posted. I also post on another thread on the Buddy section called 'Movin and Losin' and you would be most welcome to post there as we are always looking for new input. The more support we have the better we do!! If any of you gals want to move to the .Movin and Losin' thread feel free. We are both doing basicaly the same thing. Gotta go now Take care all Anne |
