    50 and over December check in

    Eating more and less time on the treadmill, I guess I shouldn't be surprised that the scale is up. It's almost like I'm giving up until the 1st of the year. But then I will spend Jan. and Feb. losing what I gained now. Magnolia I hope the meds are working.

    Pentagenarians & Beyond: W/B 12/16

    I can't remember the last time I was on the Cathe site. First the Christmas party took all my "extra" time. And then last week I twisted wrong and killed my back. I couldn't even stand up straight. I haven't been sitting too long at one time because I stiffen up. About the only posting I...

    At least I got it started the first day of the month. That might be a record. I think I'm more sore cleaning house all day than I was from lifting. House is almost clean.

    50 and over November check in

    I still love my fitbit and it shows since 11/11/12 I haven't had 10000 steps in any day. I was averaging that or more. The week I got sick I stopped moving and I just haven't gotten back as active. Sunday I had 31 minutes on treadmill but only 5117 steps for the day. Yesterday I didn't have...

    Jann I hope you find what works to lose weight. I'm at 170.4 and can't seem to get below 170. I have gotten to 160 using crazy diets like hcg but that never stays off. Even if I only got to 150 I would be happier. Joan

    50 and over November check in

    Welcome Labnick. We go through periods where we are very chatty and then some days no one posts, but we always come back. Dil was gone for 2 days and my son got an idea of what a single parent would be like. He's decided it would be worse to be divorced. I hope they work at it rather than...

    Pentagenarians & Beyond: W/B 11/18

    No shopping for me either. Deb I have no idea how to do it but I would change if you love your hair. Just make the appt., maybe she won't ask. My hairdresser usually does a great job but when I came in last time I complained that it had grown so fast that she really scalped me. I'm glad I...

    Welcome Caitlin! I seem to be over whatever I had except for a drippy nose. I have appt with trainer tomorrow at 10am. I thought we had a nice Thanksgiving but I just had a call from son and he is talking about divorce. Since we own the house they live in I'm not sure what dil is...

    Deb I am jkccpa over at myfitnesspal. I hope everyone had a good Thanksgiving. I think I am over everything but still have a drippy nose. I have way to much left over but expect to have some company over the weekend. Joan

    Pentagenarians & Beyond: W/B 11/18

    Hope everyone is doing great. I've had the flu for the last week and didn't leave my bed for several days. I think the first day I had 555 steps. I don't have to babysit until noon so I plan to get my pies baked. Dil works from 1-9 today. She got a second job working at Macy's over the...

    I can't believe I just typed a long post and then didn't submit it. Here's the short version. I have been sick since 11/13. I even missed the second day of my tax seminar. I got Elliot's stomach flu (it lasted about 12 hours for everyone in my son's family). Mine lasted a lot longer so I...

    I wear the fitbit at night and it can tell your sleep efficiency. How quickly you fall asleep and how often you wake up. Since I found out my sleep is 98% efficient I don't use it for that any more. Otherwise they both tell you steps, calories used, stairs climbed, and activity level. I...

    50 and over November check in

    Beth If you don't need to monitor your sleep they have a new fitbit that is smaller and less expensive. It definitely keeps me a little more active. Jann My cardio is a relatively slow walk on the treadmill and I bet you walk your dog at least a 1/2 hour a day. Of course the trainer wants me...

    Hi Nora & other Cathe friends :) I'm sorry for taking so long to let you know that I had to bypass this months rotation due mostly to Hurricane Sandy . We here in the immediate area are fine but very close by as well as up North is crushed. My parents ( up north) still don't have power and...

    I still believe in calories and a balance of protein, carbs and fats. With my fitbit I can see how few calories I use-just around 2000 calories with an hour at the gym. Yesterday we went out to eat and I ended up eating 2119 calories for the day. Since the trainer wants me to eat 1500-1700...

    Pentagenarians & Beyond: W/B 11/4

    I usually get a chance once a week to read this thread but with a two year old I don't get much time to post. Since dil totaled her car and they can't afford a new one I think my 10 hour days will last until tax time. Dil has taken a second job for evenings and weekends at Macys for the...

    50 and over November check in

    The first month I lost scale weight but I seem to have stalled. I think my calories have been too high. I've logged in to myfitnesspal but haven't gotten the weekly averages like I used to do. Our weather right now is close to freezing and yet should be about 65 degrees on Friday. I had...
