Hi all,
Rabbit- Congrats on the new bike
I haven't faced the back to school ordeal yet... I can't wait for ds to actually be back in school, but we are ignoring the process
Pat- Welcome back. Everyone elses summer vacations play havoc with my routines and paycheck!
Susan- When I was in Jamaica last spring, I talked to the fitness instructor at the resort where we stayed. There's a company that books instructors for a week or two at all-inclusive resorts. You stay for free in exchange for teaching 1-2 classes per day. PM me if you want the details. The week that I was there, she taught a very easy water aerobics class in the mid-morning, and a not very challenging (for me) step and bodysculpting (very light weights) class in the late afternoon.
Shan- Be careful with the dogs and rollerblades! You reminded me that it's getting almost cool enough here to dig mine out again. Time for some rollercrashing!
Softballmom- Good question! I've been avoiding the scale most of the summer and using "body landmarks" but when you first start maintaining, you probably want to keep a closer watch. There's a whole thread in the Maintainers Forum about this right
here.
Fru- haha, not violent enough! You need to meet my dental hygenist. She a multiple black belt of varying degrees in several martial arts, but the one that always amazes me is some form of HUGE blade fighting in which she is nationally ranked. She's 52. She has even scared my son into flossing every night
I had a good, totally on plan day. Yay me!
I need about 3 more perfect weeks...lol, I guess two days is a good start.
