Commit to get Fit & Lean January 2016 - 2026

PT exercises and a bit of walking on flat surfaces in stores! Petsmart is probably wondering what I was doing, pushing a cart around of dog treats for a while before paying for them!

Deb, hope things are alright with the dr's appt. NYC must be crowded, esp at this time of year. 25 years.

Belinda, enjoy this time. It is so special. Fraud is all over and it is horrible. Hope you find alternative shoes, and get money back on those others.
 
Hi,

Today was zoom yoga. The yoga instructor was lucky the main island wasn't hit with the Hurricane. My knee is acting up since walking yesterday, tried to do a short walk but didn't make it far before turning around.

Belinda - Wow, the wedding is almost here so exciting! You and your DD will look beautiful:) Great job with LMR LB.

Cookie - You are good about getting your PT exercises in. I tried to park my car further away to get some steps in, we think a like. Everything went well with the Dr.'s appointment.

Goodnight:)
 
'Evening! Managed another kayak ride this afternoon. It got real windy at one point, and definitely that portion was a workout.

Deb, relieved the dr's appointment went well. I try to park a ways away to get more steps in also! I'm managing ok on flat surfaces. Did you do a lot of uphill walking yesterday, Hawaii has had quite a lot of crazy weather.

Belinda, enjoy this big event! You'll be beautiful! Hope the shoes arrived.
 
Hi,

Today was some core exercises. I didn't walk just ran some errands so that was enough. I forgot to say yesterday DH & I went to lunch with 2 of my SILs. It was nice to catch up.

Belinda - You must be having fun at the rehearsal dinner:) Will you be staying at a hotel for the wedding festivities?

Cookie - A kayak ride sounds nice, except for the wind. I'm sure it was a workout working against the wind. I think I walked too much because I didn't want to take the subway or cab. DH said I should have but nervous in the subway & the traffic is so bad to take a cab/uber.

Goodnight:)
 
'Evening! Went to a 9/11 remembrance today. One of my BIL was a speaker, and it was so moving to hear the impact of that day on so many and the lingering health effects many are suffering from.

Deb, NYC is great for walking, but it is a workout. Are you off to dinner tonight?

Belinda, sending best wishes to the lovely bride and her family. Hope you are having a fantastic time.
 
Hi,

Today was an upper body workout at the gym. This afternoon we babysat & went to the park. It was fun, since my ds has been working nights this month we are babysitting less.

Belinda - Today was the day, can't wait to hear all about it!

Cookie - I was reading, listening and watching stories about 9/11. It's interesting that there are still stories I haven't heard out there. It must have been interesting to go to a 9/11 remembrance that your BIL was a speaker. Did you personally know anyone affected by that day?

Goodnight:)
 
Hi,

I did a short walk not hilly and my knee was ok. We are going out to eat tonight.

Belinda - The weather has been beautiful, I'm sure it was perfect for your DD & your family.

Cookie - How are you feeling?

Goodnight:)
 
'Evening! Managed a short walk today, trrying to avoid inclines, which is tough around here. Beautiful day.

Deb, less babysitting must give you more free time. Glad your knee didn't bother you on your walk. My bil was a first responder and has suffered a lot w/his health since. Another bil passed from the effects, and a former co-worker's son and sil passed on that day. What about you?

Belinda, congratulations! Looking forward to hearing about the beautiful event.
 
Evening,

The wedding was amazing. The weather was hot day. I am so happy for the bride and groom. We celebrate d 3 day’s. It was so much fun.

On Saturday DD’s yoga retreat instructor from LA came and thought a yoga class before we all got ready to get hour hair and make up done. It was a restorative yoga class, felt amazing. The venue was beautiful, barn style wedding. I can’t hardly walk anymore, taking a rest day today. Hopefully I can get a workout in tomorrow.

Thanks for the congratulations on my DD’s wedding. I am happy to have gained a new son.

'Evening! Managed another walk today, and boy am I feeling it. But it felt good at the time.

Deb, hope you had another great day. Do you have tomatoes for sauce making?

Belinda, thanks for sharing the photo. It is beautiful! Your daugher is almost as lovely as her mom. Congrats on another son. Love the inclusion of her dog.
 
Hi,

Today was a walk on the TM at the gym. It was raining very hard here & was caught in a downpour picking up my vegetables at the farmer's market.

Belinda - Beautiful bride, groom & doggie too;) I love the scenic background & her choice of flowers:) I'm sure it was amazing. You must be exhausted so much going on & so many emotions, rest up.

Cookie - It can be difficult here to find walks without incline. I hope you feel better tomorrow. I had made a sauce during the week with fresh tomatoes so it made it easy. My BIL was transporting people by boat from NYC to NJ the day of 9/11 and afterwards as well. Sorry about your BILs.

Goodnight:)
 
'Evening! PT exercises again today. Have to travel w/work so next couple will be rest days.

Deb, we had a downpour last night! It's like the sky just opened up. fresh tomatoes and sauce are made for each other!

Belinda, hope you're relaxing and taking care of yourself. Deb's right - so much emotion can be exhausting.
 
Hi,

Today was a walk outside & Cathe Gym Style legs. It was a beautiful day!

Belinda - You must be resting after all the festivities:)

Cookie - Great getting in your PT exercises. The travel for work will be a good way to rest.

Goodnight:)
 
Good morning, not sure what happened to my post from last night? From last night:

Evening,

today I did LMR LB plus Pilates.

I met my son and daughter in law for lunch today before they leave tomorrow. Sadie had a vet appointment they checked her electrolytes. Her numbers are normal, yeah. Her vet said that Sadie is A systematic. She also believes when Sadie had pancreatitis a few weeks ago, it was Addison Disease. On Sept 24 she will get her hormone shot. The vet will taper the prednisone again. I am so happy Sadie is doing so well.

Debbie - there wasn’t much relaxing going on yesterday, lol. Today I am getting an injections in my knees. Great job with GS Legs.

Cookie - great job with your PT exercises. Safe travels.

I will be back later.
 
Evening,

I had hyaluronic injection in both knees today. I hope this is it.I been having swelling/pain in both my ankles. My Rheumatologist took an ultra ultrasound of both ankles, I have a lot of inflammation. My dr said it’s in an area where you usually don’t get inflammation. He wants me to get an MRI done on both ankles with contrast. It could be RP, RA or OA. I got a lot of blood test done today.

Today I did LMR Core fusion. That’s it.

Good nightl.
 
'Evening! Got some steps in and PT exercises, but mostly travel day.

Deb, the weather lately has been so nice during the day. Cool in the morning and nights, though. How are you feeling after walking?

Belinda, wish you were relaxing yesterday! Glad to hear Sadie is doing well. Nice to be able to spend time with your son and dil. Hope they figure out what is going on with the swelling.
 
Hi,

Today was yoga & walking. It was nice today. We are thinking about going to the beach tomorrow. We are not sure if it will be warm enough so still deciding.

Belinda - Great job with LMR LB & core. It is great Sadie is recovering and doing well. It's good that it happened before the wedding too. Hopefully the injections will help with the swelling. It must be frustrating. Will DD & her husband be going on a honeymoon?

Cookie - Great job getting your PT exercises and steps in. Hopefully you will have some down time on your work trip. My knees feel ok, just feel tired. It is cool here in the mornings and evenings too. Lots of clothing changes:)

Goodnight:)
