    Pentagenarians & Beyond: W/B 7/1/12

    Good evening, I got Crossfire today but am afraid to try it until back is a little better. It's not bad but I kept hearing Cathe say if it bothers your back don't do this. I did like what I saw with my preview viewing. No our insurance is who is at fault. If it's 50/50 each insurance co...

    50 and over month of July check in

    Good evening all, Went to a cookout and ate too much. Not in volume but calories were bad for everything-potato salad, macaroni salad, etc. I got on treadmill late but it was 99 degrees when I started and down to only 93 degrees by the time I stopped. We hit a record 105 degrees today...

    Jann I would love to lose 5lb fast and then stay steady for a while. I'm doing it 1/2lb at a time so it seems soooooo much slower. But I'm happy so far. I'm down about 5lb also. I'm going to give crossfire a chance it seemed different. I had a car accident about an hour ago. I was...

    Pentagenarians & Beyond: W/B 7/1/12

    I broke down and bought Crossfire because I liked the video. Seemed like something I could do. I had a car accident in the bank parking lot this morning. I was pulling out so I'm sure they will say it's my fault but the young girl must have been going pretty fast. I had a scrape on my...

    I did power max yesterday in addition to my treadmill. I just grabbed a dvd because I wanted to do something. I am terrible at step so Cathe and I looked nothing alike but I did keep moving the whole time. Sunday I was up .6lb and today I am down 2lbs. I like Monday's better. If I keep the...

    Pentagenarians & Beyond: W/B 7/1/12

    I decided I had to do something yesterday so just grabbed the first dvd. It was power max. I am terrible at step but at least kept moving the whole time. I'm sure it wasn't pretty. I only did a couple of situps in the ab section. It started to hurt my back and since it really isn't healed...

    I'm starting to declutter my house. For the last 2 weeks I have gotten rid of 10 things a week. If I buy anything new I want to get rid of the same # of items. It never works to try to do everything at once so I'm trying to do a little at a time. I may try to do the same with exercise. Joan

    I never should have looked at CrossFire. I really liked some of the moves. I would skip the high impact and it still seems like it would give a good wo. I will have to think about it. Joan

    I didn't preorder this time. I feel like I need to get back into exercise before I waste any more money. I didn't get even the treadmill in yesterday. I went to bed early with ice pack on my neck. The neck got better but then had a horrible pain at the base of the skull. This lasted...

    Pentagenarians & Beyond: W/B 6/24

    Deb if you find theat frame of mind let me know how you did it. I need it to start exercising again. For diet my fitbit tells me how many calories I am using which is a sad 1700 calories a day and I have been eating about 1450 calories a day. That gets me a loss of 1/2lb per week. I...

    My trouble is I don't remember what my real (former) hair color was. I started changing it when I was in my 20's. I didn't think it was more than a medium brown but the side hair now almost looks black. I will probably go back to the light brown not quite blond look for awhile unless I decide...

    I just got my haircut thank goodness. It was so long I was about to chop it off myself. My hairdresser frowns on that.:D I didn't have time for color and this cut eliminated all prior color. EEK!!! I like the color on the top but both sides are both darker. If it were all platinum I might...

    Pentagenarians & Beyond: W/B 6/17

    Looks like I'm glad I didn't order Crossfire. I think my back was a pinched nerve and I slept on an ice pack for a couple of days. It really helped and only have some twinges now, but almost afraid to lift. If you hear any loud screaming it is me. I was on hold for 2.5 hours with the IRS...

    Beth I'm getting really good at recording food immediately. Myfitnesspal makes it so easy because they seem to have everything in the memory. Most of the time I try to record food before I eat it to check on calories first. I am truly the least active person I know. Except my mother and she...

    I need to stop complaining because the diet is working I was 174lb today and that is the average loss of 1/2lb per week only early. I was to hit that July 1. It's just that 1/2lb per week is incredibly slow and any 2lb water weight gain makes it look terrible. I agree that varying the...
