Thanks Val. That squeaky treadmill is worse than annoying. I think it's at just the right pitch to hurt my head after a while. It totally drowns out the gym music, and if I use my mp3 player I have to turn it up so loud I'm gonna cause serious damage to my hearing... ahhhh whatayado?? lol.
And thanks too for the info about Curves. I sort of gathered from some of your other comments that the equipment was set weights, otherwise you would be able to challenge yourself more. do they also have cardio? Maybe you could explain to them the circuit is not enough for you anymore but (since you like the convienence of how close to home it is,) you would consider using their place for cardio workouts for a reduced fee?

Just a thought.
Curly~ what did you spend $100 on not get meat?? LOL... Never mind- silly question. I do it all the time. hehe it infuriates Lee
Petra~ Can you imagine ANYONE who could stick to Ornish's plan faithfully for any length of time? LOL... it's def a tough one!
It's still nasty here. Lee checked the rain guage this morning, 3.20" in 24 hours... can we say YUK!!
Well Ladies, I weigh in tonight and the scale this morning said good things.

I'll pick lightweight clothes and just not eat for the rest of the day

..
No, really, I wear the same thing every time, and I started eating regularly a few weeks ago, so my weight is not a starving weight anymore lol. I do wish these meetings were in the morning tho lol...
ttfn PIC's!!!
