Thanks for asking., anne I am haing another restless night.today I have a doctor appointment at 11 AM but they got my lab work on the computer and done took a peek at it. look like they failed to get my blood sugar That means another needle in my hands,

    Marie

  • Sorry to hear you have to trek off to the docs again MARIE, plus another needle. At the least the little one won't be premature, bless him. My eldest was a 7 month baby at 3lb 12 oz. It was touch and go, but look at him now, he dwarfs his full term brother at 6 ft and is a lovely bear of a man. Think of Raymond the tv show and the two brothers. Lol. Looking forward to some good news soon. Anne ❤️

    Anne, you are too funny and no witch by any means. You are lovely and the Celtic and all that is very spunky.

    Last night was my first rehearsal for a ladies choir I joined. It is going to be fun and some work too. I am in the Soprano section right now but I may have to go down to Soprano 2.
    I will see, two of the songs were quite high for me. Mr. Sandman and Unchained Melody.
    We have some great songs, like Penny Lane and the Impossible Dream. We will get a CD to practice our parts at home.

    Today was my Yoga Practice this morning and then lunch with a friend and some shopping at Target. My DH was supposed to stay overnight for work but he left me a message and will be coming home instead.

    Have a great evening and if anyone is watching the series The Book of Negros its on tonight at nine.

    Shirley, your songs sound great and such fun to sing lovely songs.

    Marie, when I went on Medicare my doctor stopped doing my A1C as part of my blood test and always takes it when I go to get results. It is something about the way Medicare requires it.

    Oops, sleeping pill is kicking in so good night ladies.

    Morning,
    A cloudy day but the temperatures are warming up.

    My daughter is moving to her new house on Saturday so the weather should be cooperating. We used to help with all the moves but now that we are getting older they
    are doing it themselves. We moved both our daughters when one was in university and the other in college. Now they are on their own.

    I am waiting this morning for my Avon rep to come and give me my order then I can start my exercising.

    Have a great day!

    Morning,

    It's 19F this morning so no outside walking for me. Dave is going to pick up our new boat foam
    and cushions for our bed on the boat. I hope my back likes it this summer.
    He will also be picking up our water tank this week which was repaired. Always something to fix on an old boat.

    As for me I will be walking with my new DVD this morning and then I think I will get at
    my grandbaby's blanket today. Nothing planned today so just doing some things around the house.

    Enjoy the day!

    Beautiful Sunday . So nice here in Texas been outside walking without a Jacket. my day went fine did not have to look for any lost or misplaced Item. And that is a wonder in it self Sure hope I did lost some weight tho. That would be a fantastic lost. had a good old home made hamburger for lunch. Breakfast had my first cantaloupe of the year Don't know what country it was from but one of the better one I had all summer long last year. I also got a personel size watermelon and it was good too. About all I know today.

    Hello

    Marie - Your food finds sound delicious. Can't wait for that fresh fruit in the summer.

    A frosty morning but it is melting now. Another cloudy day and they are predicting some snow.

    I got up early and went to my Yoga Class and stayed for meditation. I had a hard time concentrating because my left hip was sore and it was screaming at me.

    I finished getting groceries all put away and now laundry. :p

    I better get my lunch ready.

    Enjoy the day whatever your weather is.

    LOL -- at least you have part of my face. I got playing around with a selfie wearing a Jimmy Buffett Margaritaville hat I had purchase in Niagara Falls. He is opening a restaurant in my area soon.

    I will post a full photo (before/after) before the end of March – I will be at goal or within a couple pounds by then.

    Hope all is well…with everyone!

  • Wouldn't it be interesting if we as a group added up all the pounds we have lost, say, starting last 1st May 2014 to the end of April 2015. I bet we would be most surprised.

  • Hi from an 80 yr oldie in Az. Been using My Fitness Pal since July, and lost 16 lbs. so slow, and feel I'm eating so little. At this age we are all slower and harder to exercise, sometimes even to get around, but can't quit. Any other old gals Here going through the same? I'm only 5' tall, maybe even shrunk a bit. But would be nice to have a friend with similar situation. Married 62 yrs, hubby has dementia which keeps me on the go, but don't get out much and home =" food.
