50 and over week of November 29 check in

Back again,

I did get in Stepworks. Fridays are house cleaning days so we'll see if that is the only wo. Total calories eaten were 1908 instead of the 1200 I had planned.

Good morning, everyone!

Thanks, Joan. I'll give that Dec. rotation a serious look. Friday is my house cleaning day, too. Of course I have gotten so far behind due to "homework", it is going to be a big workout just getting it presentable!

No plans to do anything other than house.

Everyone have a great day.

Hi everyone,

This morning I did the FIRM Total Body Toner. This was actually a challenging workout...good total body workout. While doing the ab exercises, my Siamese cat (Takashi "Taka") became extremely affectionate and decided to add extra resistance by sitting on my stomach. He hasn't done that for quite some time. My cats have learned over time that it is not safe being near me during my workouts with flying feet and moving dumbbells.

Jann - I got P90X about 3 months ago and did it for a month. I liked it but I get bored doing the same thing week after week. Yoga X is 90 min. long and it's a good workout, but I hate yoga and just couldn't get myself to do it again. I did sub in other yoga dvds, but just didn't enjoy it. I also have CLX and did it for 6 weeks, but I got bored doing the same thing week after week. It finally dawned on me that I need to be mentally challenged when I exercise. I think that is why I took ballet and other dance classes (jazz, tap, modern dance, lyrical) for over 15 years. Remembering different foot patterns at the barre can be challenging as well as learning new choreography. I like not knowing what comes next and that pertains to workout DVDs too. I think I have collected enough workout DVDs to last a whole year.

Magnolia - I'm enjoying the shorter workouts right now too.
 
Good evening all,

I really did post yesterday. Unfortunately I must not have hit submit reply. I did use house work as wo and used the most calories. Today I got treadmill so that will be my wo. Eating is still bad but I am recording it. DB leaves tomorrow so I should be able to eat better.

Elliot still has her cold and was a real stinker yesterday-no nap.

Hope everyone has a good weekend.

I am really getting into the holiday spirit!

I walked on the treadmill again this morning for 1.5 miles then kept very busy around the house. We got about 2 inches of snow today. That's enough for me!
 
Hi, Y'All!

YAY! Joan got her new treadmill! :D Congratulations!

Jann, we had rain all day yesterday, and there was wet snow mixed in for an hour or so, but no accumulation. It has been beautiful but cool today.

I am raking out the guest room today. No matter what I do, it turns into a junk room, which I hate. Hope to be finished by supper time, but I'm beat and I still have a way to go.

Hope you all have a great evening.
