Julie: Don't forget, I still have a LOT of weight to lose so it is going to come off quickly until I get closer to goal. I am expending a lot of energy with the treadmill now to. You are going to do it and you are getting closer and closer to that goal of yours!

Early Morning Exercise Queen:

Me I did 45 minutes on the treadmill with an increase in incline, time walked and speed walked. GOODBYE LBS FOREVER!!!!!

Have a great day ladies!

Hi all!

I got 4 points yesterday - had a brisk walk to and from the video shop, which counts as my exercise! My house is on a road with a steep incline, so just walking up my road gets my heart pumping!

Dot - 20lb lost - that is brilliant!

Faye - you are doing fantastic - that treadmill is melting those pounds away! You are inspiring me to get down the gym and get on that treadmill!

Julie - Glad you are feeling a bit better - let your family look after you, you deserve it! I know what you mean about having a family history of mental illness. I have a history of depression, so whenever I have a bad day I am really worried that my depression is coming back. It's important to remember that sometimes we just have bad days - maybe it's hormones, stress or a shift in the cosmos - it just happens! I'd only get concerned if you felt low for a month or so.

Judy - Sorry about the job sweety - I know how you feel. Just keep on trying and God will bring the right job to you soon - thats what I'm banking on!

Cat - thanks for your experience of weightwatchers. I suppose groups really depend on the mix of people already there don't they? Just because everyone is overweight does not mean that we will have anything else in common or get along. I think that is what I find difficult about joining a new group. If it's a good one I think I'll really benefit - so I think I'll give it a try. It's free registration at the moment, so I might as well take a peek!

Where are Pam, Joy, Beth,Ritu and Missy???? (and anyone else I have forgotton) Come back girls, it's been toooooooo long!

Love Amanda xxx

Hi ladies, 4 points for me yesterday, go Kim! I don't know if I am loosing weight (not weighing right now) because I am just eating whatever I want , just writing it down, but the Pilates has noticably strengthened my tummy, I can really tell the difference. Bummer now it that my hip is clicking when I do a lot of the leg focussed exersizes. It really bugs me, doesn't hurt but is kind of scary! What is that!?!?!?

I know it is not Wednesday, but I am going to unload a little here. I just don't feel like doing anything today. Slept too much, always makes me feel a little sluggish. And even yesterday I was dragging my tail. I am going to mark these feelings on a calendar, maybe they are cyclical, hormonal or something. Just feel like sleeping!

I want to say thank you to Cathy, her advice wasn't directed to me but it really hit home. I am going to do my hair and hit the MALL!!! I swear, tooling around the mall can really cheer me up sometimes. I don't consider myself a materialistic person overall, but for some reason in the last year I have really loved browsing. And maybe I'll just cruise around the mall at a medium pace for 30 minutes and call that a day's exercise. It is most certainly better than nothing!


Thanks Cat!

Everybody take care, and see you back here later! Also, chat is monday, right? Could someone send me another invite and the time, and whether that is eastern or pacific time or whatever. Mondays are not the best for me, but I will again try to make it. This place helps me so much!

EXERCISE QUEEN:

Cat using the treadmill Way to walk it, Cat!

Looks quiet here today. Where is everyone, Susan, Joy, Judy, Carri, Sandy G, Beth, Pam, Sandy B. We miss you guys today!

I had another 4 pt day today. I am on a roll. I also worked on my current weight loss scrapbook page but dumb me thought I already had January's done and all I had to do was put January's pic in so I did February's page decorations and discovered I put it on January's page. Because the page had December's on the back, I couldn't flip it or anything so I did the next best thing, took off the month stickers and rearranged them. February comes before January this year! Both pages came out really cool though. I will have to take a pic and post them.

All you wonderful gals have a good evening. I am going to sit and ponder what to make the poll about tomorrow!

Good Evening ladies!

Faye- way to go on your exercising...I like the journal idea . By the way would you know anything about an exercise machine called "cardio glider"? Is it effective, etc?

Judy- Sorry about the job, but your right it must have been a good interview practice.

Amanda- I don't drive either, my first experience driving kinda shyed(sp?) me away from it, then my brother started teaching me and I learned quite a bit, but never finished learning. I just have problems in heavy traffic- get nervous and scared. . But hope you learn it a good thing, I don't need it as much becuase of where I live, nyc- you're better off with mass transit, but if I move out of the city i will definately need to learn .

Julie- glad you're feeling better. Andy's cooking tonight too- so I am relaxing . I usually do the cooking because it's easy to keep track of pts in the food, but he's cooking seafood, so it shouldn't be that bad with cals. I get you with the depression and just the "blues". I have been thinking of actaully consulting my doc about it, sometimes I just feel really crumy...I worry I might be bipolar or something...I mean I can really flip out sometimes .

Kim- I totally know the feeling...get out for a while it will definately do you good.

Cat-Wow you go girl...really an exercise queen you are i see ...send me some of those vibes .

Okay girls take care and have a wonderful evening.
