Hi Everyone,

It barely feels like summer here in New England. Today the high temp is going to be about 68 degrees. We have had an extraordinary amount of rain too. I am still picking plenty of snow peas in the garden, and the tomatoes and eggplant are not doing anything to speak of yet.

Mike and I bought bikes two weeks ago and went on a nice bike ride together on a lovely bike path that was created from an old rail trail. This weekend is his birthday and when I asked what he wanted, he said another bike ride together. Isn't he sweet? He is really motivated to exercise now, because of the bike and it has also been a strong recommendation from his doctor since his blood pressure hasn't come down well even with meds.

I am exercising pretty regularly between the bikes and our treadmill, but I still haven't had the willpower to do WW yet. My weight is creeping down by maybe 1/4 to 1/2 pound per week.

Hi Jen, I like your plan with WW, are you also going to meetings?

Hi to the whole gang! I hope everyone is enjoying the summer, whatever weather or temp it is!

COME OUT COME OUT WHEREVER YOU ARE!!!!!!!!
How is it going everyone? My foot was all swollen but it has gotten better. I HATE PLATARS FACSITIS.

Jen, How is your sister?
I love Facebook. It is great to see most of you on there. Dianne do you have a fb account?

Terri

Zoe, aka Patti,
I am so sorry about your precious little Zoe. Dogs are the ultimate friend. You made her very happy all these years and she you. Memories are a blessing. :grouphug:

Kathie passed away peacefully and gracefully on Wednesday afternoon. My heart breaks, but it will heal. She could not.
Rest in peace, Kath. I love you.

Dear Jen,

My heart and hopes and prayers are with you and your family. I am so sorry for your loss of your treasured sister.

Sandy

I am so sorry Jen. She is at peace. She sounded like a wonderful sister.

Jen, although I e-mailed you, I wanted to say again how sorry I am for the loss of Kathie. I will keep you and your family in my thoughts and prayers.

Hi everyone, hope you are all well.

Hugs,
Dianne

Thank you, friends.
It's still hard to believe she is gone. I used to call her each day after work, now I'm missing her so.
I know it will get better, am taking it one day at a time.

I should be taking WW one day at a time, but, unfortunately, I've been off more than I've been on.
All in good time, right?

Are we still all seriously thinking of a get-together in Nashville in Oct. 2010? I've got to start planning my days off for next year and don't want to miss out.
take care,
~Jen

Was this our last message board post?

Newby here
 

Do you ladies mind if I join your group? I just found "3 fat chicks" out today while looking on the internet.

I do WW meetings although the last few months I've only been able to weigh in the open weigh in at the center and I haven't been able to get back to a meeting.

I live in Ohio, summer is in full swing here too. Tomorrow morning I'm going to walk, I've gotten away from my walks as well and I really need to start those back up for stress relief.

I'm going to go back and read some more of the posts and get to know you all a little bit more.

Happy Thusday evening!!!;)
