cajun - you are welcome to join! What kind of eating/exercise plan are you on?
marmalade - so sorry about the cold and the twisted ankle. There's always something making life just that little bit harder, right?
turbo - ouch! is wearing gloves an option?
I am following Intuitive Eating, eat when hungry, stop before full, eat what you want, and eat slowly. Of course trying to keep it healthy, we are walking for the moment, we own 3 retail stores and are going to market at the end of June so trying to walk and build up stamina to be able to walk for long distances, you walk A LOT at market. Now, I have just been diagnosed with type 2 diabetes, my glucose is more or less borderline for diabetes and they are treating me like a diabetic, so I got my meter today and have to check my fasting blood sugar in the morning. THanks for letting me join the group.
Hey ladies, we're in Alabama, having a great time. I got on the scale this morning and havent gained. Marmalade, you are right, I dont think I have sat down this whole trip. My niece has me going going going. I should be used to it being with the boys so much but I think my niece is more active than them.
I'll try to get on tomorrow and do personals. We are gonna jump in the pool for a few hours.
burgundy: Glad to hear you're having such a good time.
So tonight my aunt is taking me with her to her pilates class. She works one-on-one with a trainer who was gracious enough to let me tag along today. I've never had an actual pilates class before, so I'm both excited and nervous. In exchange, I'm taking my aunt to zumba afterwards. Her PT has been telling her to do it, but she's been to nervous to go -- worried about looking like an idiot. I keep trying to tell her that everyone looks like an idiot doing zumba. The trick is to stand in the back and not look at yourself in the mirror.
In other news, I really do think that c25k has been hurting my knees. After three days off from running, they're not hurting me hardly at all doing 30 Day Shred. Tomorrow I'm going to a running store to get fitted for some proper running shoes. I still like the New Balance tennies I have, but they'll remain my walking shoes only.
In other other news, my head cold is still being a b**** and I feel bad being stuffy and sneezing while visiting family, but my aunt and her beau are very sweet about it and my husband has been absolutely darling to me. Woke up this morning to him softly caressing my face and worrying about me. *melt*
Sounds like you ladies are really busy!
I am still stuffy darn cold! I pushed through a workout today yay Had to take a couple breaks to catch my breath cause I can't breathe haha Going to make some fish for dinner then off to Ethans baseball game.
It's almost Friday!! Can't wait for Saturdays weigh in & measurements & the weekend ooo so tired of work 28th is my last day until vacation
Ferumbras and carvedmarmelade : poor things Head cold sucks, feel better!!
My weekly weigh in was this morning and WOOT WOOT, I'm down to 172,4 pounds, after getting naughty 176,2 pounds last week because of the freaking TOM. But Tom went away, took the pounds with him and I'm very glad of it!!!
I'm going in camping this week end though... Non healthy food we'll kick in, I guess. But it's just one time, and I'll enjoy every part of it. AND I bought light beers. It's already a major improvment LOL
It's been over a year since I have logged on. Have missed it. Would very much like trying to get back on for some great support. They say you can never have enough support and I definitely need to get healthy.
I'm not on a diet. I'm going to just eat healthy and watch my portions and get back to the gym at least 4 days a week. I don't want to see this as anything but a lifestyle change!
I look forward to getting to know new and the original members!!
I just got back from camping, it was freezing cold this morning! I ate bit of junk but I'm not feeling bad at all about it. It was good, fun and now i'm going to focus on the next days to get back on track. (Plus we did 2 hours of hiking in a difficult trail, I think I burnt all the marshmallows I ate LOL)
I'm still a little sniffly but finally starting to feel better yay! The weekend started out great then I ate 500calories of potato chips for dinner Not sure what I was thinking! Talk about self-sabotage *sigh* been OP since then and eating a lot of fish cause you can't go wrong with fish
I had a baptism today I skipped the lunch afterwards to avoid crappy food, going fishing with the boys soon hope we can catch dinner haha have to fit a workout in some time maybe after dinner..
Thanks Fer & Dance! Got a little dolled up for the baptism I think I changed 4times before we left. I looked in the mirrror a few days ago & thought WOW cheek bones forgot I was supposed to have those
Well I'm having a crappy day/days so I'm going to rant feel free to ignore me You know the beginning of Moby Dick, when the narrator says that when he finds himself growing grim about the mouth and wants to knock people’s hats off, he takes to the sea? Well I feel like knocking people’s hats off which is odd for me, not something I'm really familiar with.
The baby shower/baptism really got to me. My bff & I were prego together I misscarried at 3.5months & she has a perfect baby I mean it he is great & I'm so happy for her. I have been feeling so good the last few months & then bam it's back & I guess I really just wanna take to the sea.
So far so good food wise & I even forced myself to get on the elliptical last night. 53minutes later I felt fantastic! Well it's now 1pm my venting for the day is done, I haven't left the house yet sooo guess I have to get my bum in gear & get some work done.
Hope everyone is having a good start to the week
Head cold sucks, feel better!!
