  • This group is for those dealing with the challenges of being fit when you have a significant amount of weight to lose which becomes harder after age 40. If you're an old or new friend and not over 40 and feel this is the place to post, jump right in.
  • Here's June - where has the year gone? I'm going to try very hard to post every day which I know helps me stay POP. That's a really good start for me.
  • Pop weekend!!!!
  • Let's make this week full of healthy food and exercise!!
  • My tummy's off. Think it'll make it an easy to not eat junk day.
  • POP day - first time I can say that in awhile.

    Let's get some energy going here and see what we can accomplish in June.

    Let's do this!
  • Great day with exercise
  • Where is everyone ?? I'm lonely!!
    What are you eating today?
    How the weather outside?
    Anyone got a garden growing? I found a tiny bell pepper on a plant yesterday. Yes I am pumped!!!!
  • Didn't make it here yesterday as planned but both yesterday and today were POP. Starting to plan in my mind some healthy choices for the weekend.

    Let's do this!
  • Hi Dgramie,

    I'm here!! I've just read back through the days I've missed, how did the night with your Grandson's go? Was it lovely?

    We've had a busy time here and just in the middle of it now. Last weekend my husband and son travelled to Queensland so my son could compete in the Australian International Oireachtas (Irish Dancing) - it was a big competition and a big deal. We are so proud of him - he came 7th. The challenge for me was staying home with my daughter who wanted to have a girlie night - junk food and DVD. We did well, I made a considered decision and limited my portion size. I suppose that is what it is all about - moderation.

    This weekend my daughter is off down to Melbourne with her rhythmics gym club to compete in a competition this weekend. I won't have the same challenges because I will continue with my usual night shifts at the weekend and will be able to stay on plan.

    Otherwise, it's stuvac week - preparation for exams and lots of marking.

    The weather is becoming cooler - low 20's celcius and wet, typical winter.

    That's about all for now, I need to stop procrastinating and get marking.

    I'll stop in again soon.

    Bek.
  • Bek I had a blast with my boys. Getting granddaughters today. My oldest grandson is having surgery tomorrow.
