Hi Everyone! It just seems like everytime I turn around we are starting a new week again.... They are going by so fast. Just wish the weight were going by this fast....lol Everything is fine here. Same ole thing. Just a different day. I have not exercised at all this week so I guess I will be busting my butt from now until Thursday. And My scale is at work so I have no idea if I am up or down. I hope everyone has a great day. I will check back in later Penny

I can tell this was Monday.i was actually busy at work today
Amy have a good time.Wish we were going with you.
My scales were going down but have stopped.I am still looking for a loss on Thursday.I will take anything.Gotta go.I forgot I had another session on my finger today and that threw me behind.Next week should be better.But my brother from Arizona will be here that week.Oh well.At least I am not working nights any more.So far it has been a good day.Will try to check back in later

Amy! Have a great time! We will all be thinking of you. I wish I could come with you. It sounds like fun!!!

Eleni! How exciting your brother is coming in! Where is he from?? Most of my family lives close except brad's brother. I hope your finger is doing better. Take care of yourself!

Love,
Penny

My brother lives in Sierra Vista Arizona.Very close to mexican border.It is also close to a big military base that he and his wife both work at.That is why they are coming.She has to attend a meeting here and he is tagging along.It will be nice to see him.It's been a few years.
I did allright today.I am expecing a loss on Thursday and will be very upset if I don't have it.I have cut back on how much I eat and made some changes to what I eat and doing some exercising everyday.I have even been doing a 10 min walk in the little room where I work.Just walk back and forth for 10 minutes.I figure it all helps.
Hope all had a good day.And check out newest poll.I think the polls are good.It helps us see how much we have in common

Hi Everyone,

Penny you better get busy and exercise girl.LOL Exercise is very important that is what you tell me.LOL
Glad everything is going well with you. I know what you mean about the time flying by. It is crazy. I am working now but only doing some printing for tomorrow so I thought I would post while the printer is doing all the work.

Eleni,

That is great that you have changed what you are doing. And yes any little bit of exercise will help. The lady that came to our open house to speak from the gym said that if you do only 10 min a day of exercise and keep it consistant then you will see a difference. So you are doing great. I am sure that you will see a loss this week. If you don't try not to get too discouraged just keep going. You will see results sooner or later.
Keep up the great work. I am glad that you get to visit with your brother that is great. How long are they staying?

Well I thought I would let everyone know how I made out today with a test that I had done. I went to the gym where the lady (Gay) is from that came to our open house. She gave me a test that what she did was hook a machine up to me. On my ankle and my hand and electric currents run through you to see how much body fat you have. It doesn't hurt you don't feel anything. Anyway I found out the reason that I have been gaining weight is because I have not been eating enough calories. I have been within my pts but it isn't enough calories for my body. I have been getting only about 1/2 the calories that I need in a day with all the exercise and activity I do. The machine tells you based on what you do for a normal day as far as exercise and activity. It also tells you what your goal weight should be. It said mine should be 140 and that is what I have it down for. So that was good. So tomorrow I am going to start counting calories again. I haven't done this in a long time so it will be a pain for awhile but I will get used to it again. She said it will help me in 2 ways. First mentally by changing what I am doing because I have been doing the pts for 1 year and second this way I will know exactly what I am taking in versus the exercise that I am doing. She also wants me to take my measurements once a week the same time and day everyweek. She said with what I am doing then I will see results in the measurements but I won't see the results always on the scale. She wants me to see the results somewhere so I don't get discouraged and give up. So I will start on thursday and take my measurments.
So I was glad that I went and had this done. It really helped me out a lot. Also we talked about me going off plan on fridays and she helped me to be able to order some things and still be within my pts on that day but I can still order what I want. So that was good to. If you have a gym near you that can do this I suggest that you get it done also. It cost me $25.00 but it was worth it if I am going to start losing weight again.
So tomorrow is a new start for me all the way around. I probably won't have a loss this week because I am just starting tomorrow. But I will prepare myself for that and wait until the following week for the results.

I hope everyone else is doing well. I have been real busy working so I haven't had much time to get here. I have been working in the afternoons and at night. Usually until 11pm. So I am exhausted lately. And still keeping up with all the other things that have to be done. So I apologize if I am not here that much. I get here when I have a min. I like to see what everyone is doing.

Have a great week.

Sherri
