Oh my goodness, am I behind goal or what!!! :noway: Between meetings and getting ready for classes I am sitting far too much!! However, I have discovered that visiting my children for the holidays has an added bonus -they have all the leftovers in Netherlands and I can not get to them! Woo Hoo!!!! So, even though I have had to do a lot of sitting, I am back to eating normally and have lost a few pounds. YEH!!! However, we all know this does not last, so I got out the big guns today- the 3 mile Power Walk with Mary Kay!!! :laugh:
LilyMay I live in mid Michigan, but my older son lives in Las Vegas. Small world sometimes isn't it! I have never been to Saskatchewan, but I would love to come in the winter as I LOVE the cold and snow and am super jealous that you have enough of it to shovel! We have what is called in weather circles a "dusting" :grumble: If we ever get a chance to get up there, I'd love to watch you bonspieling, but I am not ready for a tournament. Like I said, I am sailing down the ice on my belly attached to that rock! :laugh: One thing I know for sure! We both have to quit working because it is really cutting into our mileage!!
Enjoy your dinner party-veggies and all!
Good for you!!! :drinker: That stuff is poison!5 Days in and no soda so far.
Just get in line with the rest of us who over did our holidays coopscoop As Leslie says, "we are all battling," but we have MFP and our Walk Group a a secret weapon!!!!coopscoopc wrote: »I stepped on the scale today to get an "official" weight... starting challenges on Thursday sooooo WOW that was not fun. I gained SO much weight over the holidays... now more determined than ever to make this the year I get my BMI into a normal range! It's coming OFF-count on it!!!!
BanditOh my gosh be careful! I know not walking will drive you nuts, but give yourself time to heal OK?
WOW it looks to me like you are definitely going to be a "loser of pounds and gainer of fitness!!! You may have to change your name to "pounds fear me!" Great progress!!!!Wannabealoser2 wrote: »
I gave the 2 mile walk a go tonight and made it!!! My arms feel like noodles, but I DID IT!!
That puts me at 5 miles down, 15 to go!
Sometimes bgoddess you just have to take it one thing at a time. I am in a period right now where I have my eating under control, but cannot seem to get my workouts started again. I am trying to just accept it and go with it and hope it passes after a while. I am calling it Holiday Malaise. Somehow giving it name makes it sound better!bgoddess2003 wrote: »Well I got up early and did my two mile walk I ewas happy to have do it. However my eating was off the chart.
Walk Strong Everyone! :bigsmile:0 -

The r says I had a bakers cyst which is what the pop at Christmas was, and it drained into my torn meniscus, yup, got that too. Or so he thinks anyway. we will know more once the mri is done. I am allowed to still walk, no jogging or running and no more then 3 miles a day. So looks like I need to bring it down a bit. Not sure what my miles will be this month. Oh I also had my thyroid ultrasound done today, will hear the results in a few days.

So sweet of you to be concerned. I took a rest day today since it has been a few months since I golfed and did 9 miles. Come spring this will be my go to mileage. I hope to do this at least 3 times a week. My husband and brother in law ride in the cart and I manage to power walk and golf all the while keeping up with them. This is my "happy place." 0 -
