Hey
 

Hello Everybody...Thanks Liz.. I like your slogan, What you think about you bring about...So I am trying to think THIN !I weigh in for my monthly weight the first week of the month. Every day I stay clean will be a plus for me, I hope.I like to do handwork. So I have some started for Christmas. If I keep busy,maybe I won't be tempted to snack or have time to overeat. Evenings have always been a bad time for me. I have to break the habit of eating after 6pm.
Hello to Lynock. Babyboo where are you? How are you?
Bye Joanne :wave:

Hi
 

I walked yesterday. Did anyone else out there do a little walking? Where are you my computer friends?
Joanne:wave:

Hi Joanne.......I walked a bit yesteday but I have a horrible cold and am just plain feeling sorry for myself.....hang in there Joanne and we will be in touch......Liz

Hey There
 

Hey Liz- It was raining here so I had to walk on the treadmil. I did 3 miles. I thought I would never get done, I much rather walk outside. I hope you feel better soon. Joanne

Hello
 

Everyone must be really busy!! I walked as usual today 3.5 miles. It was a dreary day bur not much rain. Hope everyone is feeling well...Keep walking and working on your good healthy way of living. Joanne

Hello everyone...missed you all. Haven't been able to get on line at all. They (the city of Malden) decided to tear up my street to put in all new water pipes...and bury some of the lines..telephone, electric etc. They screwed up...haven't had phone lines in over a week. But it's all fixed now. It was a minor inconvience...that beautified our street. Much less lines.
Haven't done well at all this week, but I've started fresh today....It seems once I get on a roll (eating) it's easy to get back into bad habits.
It's also, only 50 degrees outside. I have to go buy more clothes...I have nothing to wear. I only have one pair of jeans in my new size, and 4 pairs of dress pants for work. I have a pair of shorts, but can't wear them..excuses excuses. I am going out today and buy some light jerseys and some heavier ones...I froze on friday outside while walking...but I didn't sweat...one small grace!!!
I worked hard for those 50 pounds...and I will not gain them back!!!
Thursday...I walked outside after dark...so I thought I would try jogging (can jog for shorter period and gain more points) and because it was dark...no one would see me. I haven't ran in years...well, now I know why. Allthough I've lost over 50 pounds...not an ounce came out of my breasts!! I'm a D cup. Boy they sure are weapons. I did jog a whole block which is about 1/4 mile....I now know why they sell sport bras....you need to be binded...If I didn't get skin tears on my breasts...it was a miracle. The jog itself wasn't bad...no SOB, just sore breasts!!!! Don't think I'll be trying that again...stick with walking..at least until I'm breastless!!! :dizzy: :lol:
woops Steven has to go to work...didn't realize the time
Talk to you all soon

Hello
 

Lynock- Nice to hear from you. I think you better stay with the walking too. You know shin splints.stria,sore knees. I have been a b cup wishing for a c cup. But I would have to gain back 57 lbs to get it and that isn't going to happen.Not if I can help it. I too get on food binges and wonder if I will ever break that habit
Liz ,How is your cold ? Hope you are feeling better.
You all keep walking and taking care of yourself...
Have a great weekend. Joanne:wave: :angel:

I have been really lazy lately.But starting tomorrow I am going to get seroius.I am going to start writing what I eat down.I am going to start exercising 5 times a week even if it is only for ten minutes a day.I ran on the tread mill for a couple minutes today.I am on vacation this week so maybe I can really concentrate on this.
how are this going for everyone else?

Michaela, the writing down of eating, I find is a key factor. I didn't write down for several weeks (hey I lost 50 pounds...I know what I'm doing..I don't need to write it down) WRONG:?: And boy was I. Between eating out at Steven's family this week, not writing down...and not walking cause I only had shorts (which has been corrected) I gained two pounds. Yuck...but I'm back in control again. I also found I wasn't eating lunch...for some reason I do much better even if the points are the same..if I eat more meals per day. If I go for long periods of time without eating..it's like next time I do eat...my body goes into starvation mode, and saves everything!!:smug:
I know that some of you have tread mills. What kind do you have. I purchased a couple of tapes, and am seriously thinking of buying a treadmill. I don't want to give up the walking/exercise, but this is New England, and I already have seen what happens when I don't exercise for a few days. And according to the almanac...we are in for a rough winter (they are rarely wrong).
Keep on Walking!!!
Liz, I hope your cold is better. I hate getting colds. I'm miserable enough without getting a cold!!! Eat that chicken broth!!

Hey
 

Michaela - Nice hearing from you... I agree with Lynock. You have to write down everything you eat. Make a plan and try to stick to it. Exercise is a major part of getting healthy. You can do it
Lynock I used a tread to help me lose 57 lbs. I have a old Vitamaster.(They are out of business in this area) I will get a Pro-Form when this one bites the dust. They often have sales at Sears and other places where you can get them for a good price. I walk mainly outside but now and then I am forced to use the tread. My hubby won't walk outside and he uses the tread when I give him enough flax or it is time for him to go for his checkup.MEN!
How are you Liz? Let us hear from you...
Good health and keep walking you all.... Joanne:wave: :angel:

So far so good today.I have only eaten once and last night before I went to bed I exercised for 20 minutes.Then this afternoon I went shopping for an hour.I count that as extra walking.
I hope everyone is doing well.

Hello
 

Michaela- Glad to hear you are doing good. I have to weigh in thrusday. We will see how I did this month. I am glad for some cool weather now. It is supposed to get in the 80s though today. Thats how it is in mid Fl.

Keeping busy gang! Hope all is well.....I'll be in touch after weigh in on friday.....Liz in candada:?:

I hope everyone is having a good day.

Hey
