Hellooooooooooo,Hellooooooooooooooo
Anyone out there. I hope the very slow baords means you are all out having a wonderful weekend. The sun is shinging this morning so maybe we won't have as much rain today. It rained all day yesterday. Dreary.
I did my Richard Simmons yesterday for first time in days. As soon as hubby goes out for his breakfast I will do them again. I have 2 toning parts at the end now. Altho there are some moves that I can use 6# weight there are some I can't. So I will be using around 2 to 3 instead. You never want to hurt yourself.
I am still not totally on track but working on it
Have a great day

Well, I started to write, then lost track of something, tried to check it, and lost my note, so I am starting over again. Hello to all of you out there, Wendy, Eleni, Sherri, CC, Nita, and all the others who are getting lighter through tops! I have been on a plateau for 2 1/2 months, I gain, I lose, I turtle, and am the same as I was the end of may. I have not been visiting y'all either, maybe there is some connection there!! I think I am getting back on track now as I lost 1 3/4 last week, and have been going to water aerobics 3x a week for 3 weeks now,and have been below my points daily for 2 weeks. As some of you may remember, I have arthritis, and have walked with 2 canes for nearly a year now. Well, today, I went to church with only one cane!!! The water exercise has been strengthening my legs, and I feel secure enough to trust one cane at times. It was a very encouraging thing for me. I really didn't think I could reverse these limitations I have had, as each year they seem to get worse. Maybe someday I will even walk without a cane!!!!!!! Well, this has been all about me, but I will try to get caught up on some of the boards, so will know what is happening with you. Eleni, I am so impressed that you can do Richard Simmons, as he moves just too fast for me. I just received a tape from a friend that Jessica Lang has out, and the pace seems to be something I can do. Well, hope you all have a good Sunday. It is sunny here, but not too hot. mary ann

Just wanted to let you know that there's a lot of Richard that I can't do. I went thru and picked out the ones I can do. Plus I don't do all that changing directions. My knees are bad and I am afraid of getting hurt. I also improvise on some of the moves.

Mary Ann,
Great going on using only one cane. That is good news!!
It seems like I have been on a plateau all year. I lose a few times and gain it back. I haven't made any headway all year with my weight. But the important thing is to keep trying. If we didn't weigh in every week and try to keep ourselves in control, we would weigh even more than we do now.

Eleni....The newspaper said something about another El Nino. I didn't read all the article, but that may be the reason that we're getting so much rain. You're doing good, getting in your exercises.
I gotta go. One of the ladies in our chapter died Sat. morn and my telephone keeps ringing.
