May this year be the year to....
1. reach our weightloss goals
2. maintain our weight
3. enjoy the things that we like
4. do the things that make us happy
5. exercise more, be active and healthy
I just checked the trailer for the movie.. Yes, i remember thinking i want to see it. I hope I can get to go. If not like you said rent or buy it on netfiix.
I'm 163 lbs. today. .yesterday i was 163.6 lbs. after the lunch out LOL
Did go to exercise class yesterday. that helped
I hope you are feeling better soon. Yes can't wait for the good weather.
Today 164.0 lbs. 1 lb weight gain. phew.. thought it would be a lot more since we went out to a chinese buffet. that was lunch and dinner.. only had a little mozzarella balls (a few) 1 serving of prunes with some tea in the evening to keep me going. I think what helped was I did 45 mins of dancing and walking in place to music on tv LOL.
Need to keep it light today . try to exercise and drink lots of water.
Hope you are getting all caught up and are feeling better.
OMG!!!!!
I feel like I could have written that post!
I was so busy yesterday that i didn't get a chance to post. I was running around getting last minute presents to add to the basket I was making for my friends birthday. And then I had to get all the stuff ready and head out two hours away!
AND... I ran out of gas in the parking lot of the store i went to. yeah. I still can't believe it. I knew I was running low but I thought that I had more time. I have been running around for the last three days... who knows when the light even went on. There was no time to even think.
lol
Anywasy, I was 161.0 lbs and quite happy with that.
Now, today.... btw, I got home at 3am!
I'm pleasantly surprised that my weight is 162.5 lbs. I didn't gain as much as I thought I would! I ate lots of snacks... very salty snacks.... they were so good. Then there was dinner....
But... just like you... I danced all night. It was non stop fast music and they played a lot of old school and I just couldn't stay off of the dance floor!
Yes, I believe that really helped.
So here we are together.... neck and neck. WE are going to do this.
I'm so excited that you found a program that is helping you shed that weight faster than you were shedding before.
What is your goal?
We should re-state them.
My ultimate goal is 140.0 lbs, I've done it before and I kept if off for a while and then I let it go...
Weight 163.8 lbs.
Unfortunately we can't lose it as fast as we can put it on..
my goal is also 140 lbs. It was 145 . then when i get there i will see if any further weight loss is needed. would love to get in the 130's but since that's a ways off time will tell. I take my goal at baby steps. and now it's to be below 160 lbs. that can take me a year .. Hope it doesn't take that long. Going to keep plugging away at it. Trying to make better choices. I'm really afraid of getting diabetes.. Being pre diabetic is scary enough.
the weather was good yesterday and i went for a walk. did 1.32 miles in 29 mins. that included the time i took to warm up. i don't do stretches instead i walk very slowly to warm up the body. I remember a time when i was doing a mile in about 18 min. now it's just to get out there get moving and get as many steps in as i can. Did a little fast walking to almost a jog. it was nice getting out. today the weather is warm but it's supposed to rain.
lets lose the weight.
are you aiming to lose a certain amt. each week or just taking as it comes?
Glad you had a great time at your party. you must be exhausted coming in at 3 am ... did you get any sleep?
lol. no I didn't get a good solid sleep.
In fact, I had to lay down and rest around 4pm yesterday. I just put the tv on and drifted in and out of la la land. My girls were doing their homework and DS and DH were out at a basketball game.
It was nice to relax but then I had to get up and deal with dinner... so it was a short rest but much needed.
Today, DH brought me a nice cup of tea in bed and went off to the gym. I got up and put the tv on. There was a cute movie on and I got sucked into it so I watched it until it ended.... 11am. But i feel great about the rest that I had.
Also I had cleaned up my downstairs main living areas and it was nice to come downstairs to clean spaces. I just emptied the dishwasher and am sitting here with a nice cup of tea. Soon I'll have lunch and continue my day. The only difference is that I can tackle the organization of my 'desk' area... the dining room. I can put the stuff away and not worry about the house being in the state of disarray that it was in. It's such a zen moment!
I can also focus on the areas of clutter that need rearranging!
This is good.
Glad you got to relax. you do sound zen. I wish I can feel that way. Yesterday was an off day I laid back down around 10:30 and slept on and off til 1:30 -2 pm. You 've seem to gotten the house in order pretty quickly .. did you have help ?
I'm not going to be zen in my house anytime soon. it's a disaster. I keep doing things but not getting anywhere. as I keep doing the same things and not getting to the other things that need to get done; which is very frustrating. I guess if i wasn't sick for so long I would have caught up a bit. now I just feel overwhelmed. I'll just have to tackle things little by little. Eventually maybe, i'll get caught up. or there will be something else to work on.
weather here right now is sunny & in the 40's nice.
weight 163.9 lbs.
NOT MUCH GOING ON. WENT TO THE CHIROPRACTOR YESTERDAY .GOT SOME CLEANING DONE AND ORGANIZING. HOWEVER,,, LOOKING AROUND TODAY ... IT DOESN'T LOOK LIKE I DID ANYTHING BOO HOO. I GUESS IN TIME IT WILL FINALLY SHOW. MAYBE , I SHOULD WORK AT IT FOR 8 - 10 HOURS A DAY AND THEN I COULD CATCH UP.... NOT GOING TO HAPPEN.
I HOPE YOU ARE DOING GREAT TODAY
HOPE THE CAPS DON'T BOTHER YOU. I'VE GOT A HEADACHE AND THIS IS EASIER TO RE READ FOR ME.
CAN'T WAIT TO READ YOUR MESSAGE.
Weight today 163.0 lbs.
Been so tired. trying to get things done around the house. it's overwhelming because I don't know where to start sometimes. that's when I flounder and don't get much done. Need to have a plan. then things get done. So right now I'm trying to steam mop the bathroom. did the dishes , brought down laundry. Have to call Service for my dryer.. it 's broken :(. It works but there are like paddles in side one is coming off. better get back to accomplishing something.
Hey Zee.
Sorry for not being around. I've been deathly sick and this is the first time that I have been able to come downstairs and sit at my computer. I've been out for days.
I'll write more tomorrow but I wanted to let you know.
Sorry to hear that you are sick.. I know how that is. Don't worry. .Get yourself better. When you can write .
Weight 3 days now at 163 lbs.
Got to go to my last fun friday exercise class. could not sign up for it in the next session BOO HOO it was all filled up. Did get into Tia chi. hopefully that will be good.
I just found out that one of the gym's in the area gives a 50% discount to seniors. I have to check it that means over 55 or 65 and older. I may see if I would have to sign up for the vip to get exercise classes. If so that costs 4 40. a month. For $20 I might think about it. I would be able to take unlimited classes and use the gym too. so Will see.
Ruined it all on Sat. went to a Chinese/Japanese buffet... ate way to much :( went up to 164.6 lbs. on Sunday.
Today back to 164.0 lbs. :(. now have to work off that extra pound before I can start losing again.
Did enjoy the dinner. Was so satisfied. realized what I can do if I'm in that situation again. we do like those buffet's as they have a varied of foods. It was just so long since I ate such good food I think I over did it. went back in to my I have to eat now or I won't have the chance again... Just a little slip. I know I can do better, Been there this summer and watched what I ate. So now I just have to get there again. :).
I would not wish this 'sickness' on anyone.
It is/was never ending..... my perpetual cold/flu.... that's what I started to call it.
Believe it or not, TODAY is the first day I really feel like myself! I actually got up and came downstairs dressed!
Then I hugged my hubby and told him how nice it was to actually sleep soundly through most of the night! What a thing to take for granted... sleeping soundly! It really does make a difference.
I feel so good.
I feel like I have a kick to my step.
The sun is shining and we are finally out of the cold weather and freezing from the Polar Vortex. It's going to be 11degrees Celcius! Not cold and not warm. Just perfect!
I think I needed this so that my (now) cold can finally leave me. I really do feel like my head is clear and I can breath!
It's about time! And it's just in time!
My birthday is on Saturday... I'd actually like to enjoy myself and taste my food!
lol
Hope you join back in....
I'm back (again...lol)
No.... seriously, I'm back.
I'm not going to get sick again.
Hey hey....
Of course I didn't sleep a wink last night. Quite the opposite of the night before. Sigh.
I've been maintaining a steady weight. At least it was the same overtime I managed to weight myself.
It was the magical number of 162 162.5. It never changed.
Of course today I'm 164.5. Yup. No wonder I feel like some things aren't fitting the way I wanted them to.
So... my dear, you weigh less than I do.
Yay. Good for you!
I need to get to where you are and then we can lose together!
Deal????
I'm 163 lbs. today. .yesterday i was 163.6 lbs. after the lunch out LOL
