Good morning, Y'All!
Sorry to have been absent.
Joan, I am so sorry to hear about your troubles. We have a friend here who has shingles, but not in his eyes, and I know he has been in a lot of pain. You're on my prayer list for the midnight mass tonight. As Jann and Beth have said, a pretty dress and some make up, and it won't be noticeable. Relax and have a good time, and it will probably be good therapy for you.
Gracious, ladies! Please try to stay reasonably uninjured for the rest of the holiday season!
As for me, I think I have just about kicked my problem. It takes the cough forever to go away, but it is much less now. I put in a full day of cleaning yesterday, so I am doing much better. No workouts yet, I was fighting my sickness before, now there is simply no time! But am getting in plenty of Housework Max. Am taking Classical Stretch with me for the road. By the time holiday trip is over, I should be in better shape to get back at the workouts.
I hope that each of you has a very Merry Christmas and a very Happy New Year.

Merry Christmas,
I wrote a long post yesterday but didn't hit submit. I am feeling a lot better today. Face and throat are just sore not intense pain.
Friday night I was coming down the stairs and I didn't turn on light. I missed the last step. Now I am bruised on my left leg. I really can't wait until the new year.

Oh NO Joan!! You poor thing. Let's hope the new year is good to you!! 
Glad to hear that your pain is subsiding.
Well, I have managed to eat my way through the last three days. Tomorrow NOTHING with sugar in it!! omgosh. I had the BEST lasagne tonight. Beth's (dil) father made it -- it was so good, I am sure he could win prizes with it!

Jann the lasagna sounds great! I think I'll make some for my crew! but I'm with you on the sugar thing. I fell really sick of the sweets and treats but I can't seem to stop. I don't even want to get on the scale! This morning I'm going to fire up athletic training and see if that helps.
magnolia I know your on your trip but I just want to say that I clocked about 4 weeks after my cold and still coughing! I exercised anyway but at times you feel it all coming up.
Joan - 2012 is going to be kinder to you! How are the shingle? I heard that they are unbelievably painful as well! I'm so sorry!

Good morning,
I feel the same way about all the sugar and fat but it's still in my house. Why can't we just walk away from it. It doesn't even sound good today. I have to feed a houseful the next two days so can't even throw it away.
I will have to start lifting after the New Year. I had trouble lifting the turkey and it was only 24lb. Never had any trouble in the past. I feel a lot weaker.
Shingles are a lot better and today is the last day of pills. Face and throat is still sore but I won't even complain about that because it is so much better.
My weight is back to the prediet number. I guess eating most of a cake will do that to you. I made one before Christmas when I was feeling bad. I had to make another one for Christmas.

Hey Cathe...Love the new series. Happy Holidays!! Question: I am going to start another round of STS and would like to know if you could give me suggestions for a rotation that would use the STS program and all your other cardio workouts, including the new ones? Thanks Kathy
