I think I need to work a little harder at the gym but not so much that I kill myself.

I was in PT for 4 months so now I need to challenge myself just a bit more at the gym.

Im going to water aerobics tomorrow, for the first time at 530 pm.

Hello my friends!! booo to me for not checking in at all every day I mean to and then something seems to take priority.

Lisa my friend you are to be congratulated for just joining and going to the gym!! yeah!! that is so great. And that you're trying different types, like water aerobics. was that good? How is Miss Elvira, I hope good! I am so glad *someone* loves winter, you can have my share

flower I am so sorry that you are being bothered by anxiety and especially if it is financial, so stressful! i hope it is a workable situation. And so sorry that, like many of us, it seems to "help" to eat something. Sometimes I wonder what it is, in us, that makes us reach for food, instead of maybe alcohol? I do love hearing your support of us though!! your thoughts and prayers that you send are so wonderful. Yes I find change sooo very difficult, especially the thought of a new job.

Kathleen we were thrilled to hear how well your daughter is doing, adapting to the schedule of school, and the kudos to her commitment on the physical exercise that she does! and hearing that your son is doing what he needs to!! however I am sad to hear about the issues with your relationship just knowing that things aren't great, makes us sad for you, my friend! we hope so much, that things will get better somehow. . hugs to you!! and thank you for the vibes on finding a new job i admit my stomach gets all nervous thinking about it.

Panda we hope you are okay!! you are such a consistent poster usually.

Coop Hello and how are you??

Hello to SusanP, feel free to join regularly here if you wish!! I did buy a Happy Lamp a few years ago, yes I think they help also.

I will try to check in more often!! i know I keep saying that.

I went to water aerobics last night. Today I am physically tired. Hopefully I can bounce back and go again tomorrow at 530 pm.

that really sounds great. But I bet its not easy with the resistance of the water. Easy on the knees though. Were you able to go again the following day?

I didn't go yesterday.


When I lose control during a move and land on one or more legs, the poor instructor stops.... There are just certain moves I can't do, due to pain. I'll adjust in time.

Lisa, I would guess that the instructor does not mind stopping if you lose control and land on your legs. Often instructors care more about helping people than their own agenda

everything is okay here. I went through a challenging time for about 10 days. But yesterday for some reason it seems to have lifted. Just have to be careful about what I see on TV. Just watched a hallmark channel movie
IDK if I wrote this before. I found low fat feta cheese that's GMO free. I have been thoroughly enjoying it. My body will only tolerate 2 oz per day. anything more than that results in inflammation. I honesty could eat it at every meal. 40 calories per oz.
I am loving the warmer days and nights here. I think my reprieve ends today. I know I will have to take in my basil pants Saturday night. Which means it will be in the 40s. I hope this will be a warmish winter.

She felt really bad. I tried to reassure her that I just needed to adjust.

I've been working really hard this evening on loosening up my neck. Headache headache headache.

Sorry you have been in pain Lisa were you able to loosen up your neck? Has the headache pain subsided?

I suddenly realised I've not stopped by in the whole of September! I'm calling by to say I'm ok

We had a trip to New York, and I've been doing a fitness challenge for the rest of the month, and not much else to report! I hope to call by more often in October
