I'm Back and Need to Be!!

  • I have been away from this forum for about 6 weeks. Since then I went on a wonderful vacation to Acapulco, but gained about 4 pounds. I need to get back into the groove...posting my menus to FitDay, exercising ect. I could use some encouragement. I'm still trying to break the 200 pound barrier! (Or as our TOPs weigher says - moving the big clunker on the scale.

  • Wow, only 4 pounds in 6 weeks including a major vacation?! I think you've done wonderfully! I could gain 4 pounds in a week, let alone nearly 2 months Welcome back!
  • Welcome back Lyn
    Calm down sis , you just go back to doing what you know works and that 4 pounds plus some will be gone, so take a deep breath and relax, as Jill said, I can also gain 4 pounds in one week so overall you have done good in my book
  • Welcome back! Move that clunker! ha ha, that's cute.
  • Lyn... You got us all behind you..... we know you can do it.... our group sure does need help, lol..... Tops Hugs, Barb
  • Starting Fresh on Friday..........
    First of all. Happy St Patricks Day........... I been out of action for several months. I had all but given up on exercise. The reason?? pain in my feet and knees... I just had a shot of cortisone in my heel to relieve pain in a bone spur.. the limping around was throwing my legs out of whack and making them very tired and sore... I feel like a new woman and I have no idea why I waited so long to get treatment.... but that is past now.. I just talked to the director of village fitness and she will freeze a month for me and is helping me set up a plan to get back to work exercising ... They have water aerobics which will take the stress off my knees while I exercise...
    For my eating plan, I will stick to lower carb. That seems to work best for me... I still need to get some weight off before my sons wedding in July... I have a pretty dress and it fits but snugly.... I can do this!!!! Thanks for all the support .... Barb/India
  • I hope that you had a wonderful vacation. Welcome back.
  • Thanks for the Support
    My home computer crashed for the last time this weekend. We are giving up on it and replacing it. Until then I'll have to check in when I can from work.

    Tonight is weigh-in. I think I lost a bit. Have been using Fit Day and notice that those calories are creeping up. On the positive side, we just had our Health Profiles done at work and I am rated 3 years younger than my actual age based on my biometrics, eating, and exercise.

    India - keep at it. great news about you foot pain being much less. Maybe we can walk together when the wheather gets warmer. (It's still in the 30s here BRRRR!!)
