Hi everyone. Managed to get up and out the door for a walk again this morning - even managed to RUN half the route. Also got another 20min walking in this afternoon (decided to take THAT kind of stress break rather than eating a pint of Haagen Dazs). Kids want to go out on the bikes this...

Hi there! Andrea, you had me cracking up with your pep talk - just what I needed! Thanks! I didn't WO yesterday since my legs were SCREAMING from Sunday's hike. Today I got up and went for a walk, though. Needed to work out those Charley Horses :7 Food was OK yesterday - had a few not...

Hey there. Went on a 5mi hike to a hot spring today (didn't have time to get in :( ) then to my nephew's concert @ the music camp. It was a great day & food was OK too! Amelia - all we can do is keep trying. I think I'm spending birthday $ on a trainer after my weird travel adventure :-)...

Hi there. Remember me? I've been WAY MIA (in more ways than one). I'm stressing big-time and just can't get it all in gear. I haven't WO in I don't know how long. Planning to give it a go this week, though, even though I'll be traveling on a weird schedule the following week. Food HAS to...

Ditto all the comments from above - an amazing exhibit IMO. My brother does brain pathology and his commentary on the Parkinson's brains, stroke brains, etc. was an interesting addition as well.

I like SparkPeople. It seems (at first) to be geared toward those that want to lose weight, but they have a maintenance program. The nice thing is that their journaling feature tracks your carbs, protein, and fat (and many other things you might be interested in - sodium, cholesterol, fiber...

Hi gals! I didn't do much today - only a little yoga - the stretch sure felt good. I wanted to do more, but I slept thru the alarm, so time was just not there... Planning another run tomorrow morning then DH and I are off to Vegas for the weekend! Kiddos will stay w/ the grandparents...

OMG I've been busy lately! Didn't WO yesterday - was up in the middle of the night w/ DD - she cried for 45min poor baby. Last night was much better :-). SO, I went for my 2.5mi walk/run again today and had the pleasure of seeing a couple of deer while I was out. They NEVER appear in my...

Hey gals! My challenge is to keep up with the exercise - the plan is 3 days walk/run and 2 days weights. I walked/ran today, so it's weights tomorrrow. Shape magazine had a nice plan, but I might just mix my own from ME or PUB/PLB, 4DS, etc. We went for a lovely hike yesterday even though...

Roxie, forget about the scale and listen to the tape measure, your clothes and how you FEEL. The scale is just a number, and a fickle one at that. I know how you feel about the WO - I had that trouble w/ LowMax - I couldn't "get" the combos and didn't feel like I got a good WO. Just keep...

Hi everyone. Just a quick check in between things... I rode my bike to WW this morning (10mi round trip - HILLS). It was a good WO. My knee is aching a bit, but I'll take some glucosamine & ibuprofen & call it good :-) I haven't done weights (or abs) in AGES. I think I might try ME this...

Hi everyone. I elected to take a rest day today since I had WO 8 days without a break. I will ride my bike to WW meeting tomorrow (10mi RT) if the weather is good (we have rain today - unusual for us). Andrea, being low in fat in your diet SOUNDS good, but your body does need some fat to...

Hi everyone. Went out for a walk @ noon today. My legs are whining from yesterday's run, so I guess I'll have to do it again tomorrow }( (I try not to run 2 days in a row). Roxie, I found that I was low on fat (of all things). I started journaling food on Spark People - they have a nice...

Hi everyone! Got up and went for a 2.5mi walk/run today - I'm no Lori :D , but it was good for me. I'd like to run a bit more of it (I ran about 2/3) but I'm just not there yet. Give me a week or so... Shirl, my challenge right now is to get off my a$$ and exercise since I haven't been...

I frequently joke about cleaning house with a match...won't happen, but you know what I mean. I've been having that antsy feeling lately too and have been purging stuff @ home big-time. Work is pretty stressful right now and I just want to have some space under control...

I like my legs - although my calves could be a bit smaller - they are VERY muscular w/ very little fat. Arms are good too. It's just that area from just below my shoulders to just below my hips...x(

Hi everyone. Got a walk in @ lunch today...not much but better than nothing. I was supposed to get up and do a "real" WO, but DD joined us @ 3am and we had bedtime pinball - she slept, while DH and I were the bumpers LOL! Maybe tomorrow. Food has been disastrous today. Just can't seem to...

Hi everyone! Got a chance to hit the pool w/o the kiddos this morning so I swam a bunch of laps. It was really nice. Becca, I LOVE the candles on Luna bars! Pretty thoughtful IMO! Roxie, I'm glad you didn't get sunburnt. I seem to be the opposite of most of you - I used to tan easily...

Hi everyone. Don't know if anyone will see this since it's so late. Anyway, I rode my bike to my WW meeting as advertised. Also swam a bit w/ DD this afternoon. Not sure what I'm gonna do tomorrow. Need to do some abs - maybe 20min on the elliptical (or a run) followed by a CoreMax segment...

I'm here too! Got my walk in so I did SOME exercise anyway. I'm going to start a rotation on Monday so that I have some more rigid structure. And I'm gonna STICK WITH IT come heck or high water! I sure need to do something about this exercise funk! Food has been ... well ... not horrible...
