Went out last night and ate too much but doing better today. Got off track with exercise but got to the gym to do my running on the treadmill.
Kathy, I went shopping and was trying to find pants. But then for the first time in a while, I tried on a dress and it looked so cute that I got it. I've been avoiding dresses because I have a few varicose veins on my legs. I decided that if anyone's close enough to see these, they probably love me anyway! And I think I notice them more than anyone else. Maybe your arms are the same way? So I'm embracing my legs and showing a bit of them, even though they're not perfect. Your arms may be the same way.
One of you asked my bride to be's age. She's 30 this July.0 -
Clara, I have been celebrating since Thursday evening. Tomorrow I will be cleaning up my act! I don't think it's really hit me yet. Most things are still the same. Tomorrow I will still be in bed when my DH has to get up and get ready for work. That will be very new for me!! I've always been the first one up and out the door for the past 12 years.
Went out this morning with DH and Bean for 5 miles then had lunch with friends then went shopping for a new chicken chili recipe then put the chili together...it is simmering now and smelling quite divine!!
I'm glad today is a rest day because I'm just about done. I think I'll read for a bit.
Have a grand Monday everyone!

So tired last night I didn't post but my team won 3 of 5 matches however my doubles partner and I was not one of the winners. We lost 4-6 & 3-6. Our first of the season. Could have played much better but it happens...
Rainy today in Georgia and my legs hurt so I will be completing the arms challenge and an abs challenge.
Congrats Chris....I'm sure you're sleeping in this morning
Happy Monday!

This is my Sunday check-in. Three in the morning for me is still night-time, when it's 6:00am on Monday for Kathy, and she's up and running already.
Logging in between sets. Finishing 12 reps x 3 sets.
Chris, I'm doing flys and kickbacks without weights because I can't lift my arms 36 times (12 x 3) when using weights. Would it be better for me to use 3# weights and do less reps?
Thanks,

Paula I think 36 times lifting your arms in a motion it is not used to is great. Build up to the weights. But I honestly think it would be awesome to do 3 sets of 5 reps with weights also. So which makes you feel best? I am so far behind in catching up with you guys.
Clara she does not look 30. I thought she was much younger in the photo. Or maybe I am getting old. The fish love their vodka. It is carbon dosing to lower phosphate and nitrate, to rid the tank of pesky long haired algae. I want it gone! I want to see a picture of you in your new dress.
Chris glad to see you are living in the dream still. Still feels like a vacation I bet. Time for you to be your own master. congratulations again, you earned this.
Kathy glad the team is doing so well. If your legs hurt you are still a winner in the exercise development section. Keep moving.
I am trying to get my gym back together by the end of the weekend. Ceiling is up, dust everywhere! It is primed. Using a short roller with your arms above your head to do the primer has to count as a neck and shoulder workout!

My friend and her doubles partner won their match. They were both surprised to see us show up for the match. Three of us rode over together then we all went to lunch afterwards. Good times!!!
We all play our 3rd match tomorrow at our home court. We are currently tied for 2nd place in our division.

Kathy you all were the best of friends to be there for their game. I will think of her often. hugs to your team.
