Going to start posting my weight again...Accountability...motivation...the struggle is real!
186.0 this morning...not surprised. Working to get under 180 by the end of the month.
As Shelley said let’s have a great July! The swimming lessons start again the second week in July. One hour lesson for 4 days. Vacation at the end of the month...always good motivation for me!
Chris - continue on your road to recovery!
Karen - I think we’re at or near the same weight, maybe we can motivate each other.
Paula - miss you!
Happy 4th everyone.

I miss her to Kathy. And I love your idea of posting our weight again. I think I was about 153 this morning. I did a Les Mills on demand workout this morning. It was a beginners, so not to stressful. Just need the habit of working out!
Kathy those swim lessons are just about to pay off! What day is your vacation? I am off the 15-20 and the weekends. It is our 40 anniversary.
I am thinking that next week I will get the all clear to start lifting weights again.

185.2 this morning. Hoping to be 179 by the end of the month. I need to join you with the weights.
We taking a long weekend for Ron’s birthday, July 31-August 3. Arrive on Wednesday and return Sunday. He goes to Falcons training camp for the remainder of his time off. It’s his thing...analyzing the team and getting ready for the new season,...he’s a fanatic when it comes to football.
And can’t wait to surprise him...he has no clue about the swimming lessons. And this will be our first trip to Amelia Island.
Happy Anniversary...40 years...amazing! Enjoy!!!

153 this morning.
I did another workout on Les Mills. I like that I just turn on my television and pick one. Now I need to get a note book and keep track of which ones I did and if I liked it or not. Next week I can do weights Kathy.
You can join me.
Kathy I sure wish I could see his face when you dive gracefully into the water and swim along side the mermaids.
He will be so surprised. What a great gift for the both of you. Surprise! And thanks. Hard to believe it has been that long. And we still have so much to do. going to look up Amelia Island. I used to watch football with my dad. He loved it.
Les Mills on demand even has kids dance workouts Chris. And lots of short workouts for when time is short. There is a free trial for anyone wanting to try it out.

Kathy it seems it is part of Florida. So you do not need a passport correct? And do you fly in or take a ship?
Shelley1 -
140.4 at 6:30 this morning...I think. Took my meds, went back to bed. Went out to Vacaville to see the Neurosurgery PA, She said I was doing great. Next appt is next month w/my surgeon, Dr Griffith.
Go to see the Physical Therapist the 18th. Maybe time to get back exercising or something...get to take my personal trainer so they can talk and see what needs to be done.
Shelley, I'm gonna look into this Les Mills thing you got going.
Kathy, Shelley's right, Ron is going to be so surprised!
Back tomorrow...must go lay down now.

It is Les Mills on demand. There are dance, yoga, stretch, weights, boxing and ones for kids even. If course they all have kewl names. Body Pump, Body Flow, Combat you get the idea. Even ones for stationary bike. Dance to get your groove on. There are beginner ones. Short ones. I had to buy a Fire Stick to get it to work downstairs in my gym. But that was not to much. I used to go to the actual Body Pump classes. I loved them. Weights. I can see you liking the flow ones.
Are you still keeping track of your workouts? Nice that your trainer is going to talk with your doctor. That is so awesome.

No workouts yet. No bending or stretching yet. PT, her name is M.N. Spencer, will tell my trainer, Tiffany, what I can and cannot do at our first session July 18th. I don't know how many times I will see Spencer, but I between the two of them I want to have three sessions a week. Even if two of the sessions are baby sessions...I just need someone there to guide me. Otherwise, I just sit in my chair and tell myself what I should be doing.
We met DDD and Ronan at the bookstore this morning. It was fun. Ronan put up a fuss when it was time to go because he did not want to leave. He loves the bookstore!! Can you tell he's my Grandson??
Congratulations on your 40th anniversary, Shelley. Pat and I will celebrate 36 years on July 8th.
Have a great day today, my friends.

You'll have a great time, Kathy.
140.4 this morning at 7:30...I think.

Chris guidance is a great thing. It motivates us. I do much better with someone else also. PT will be very helpful. Rocky went 2-3 times each week. Congratulations early on your anniversary.
Falling asleep. Finish later.0 -
139.4 this morning at 6:30!!!! Wonder if it's going to stick around or not.
Got the boys for a little bit this morning. DH and R are playing in the water out back. So fun to watch them. DDD, SIL and Ronan are going to D'land this week. Leaving tomorrow, coming back Thursday. We'll have Bean for those days.
Need to finish my book so I can get to the ones I got at the bookstore yesterday.
So much reading to do!
Well, I best get to it. Have a great Thursday, everyone.
Chris0 -
Chris all that reading is such a chore! Just send the blood to me and I will gladly read them for you.
Rocky 's sister in Tennessee had several heart by passes today. Not sure how to spell that. She had a procedure yesterday also. I have not seen her in a few years. She has always been a bit heavy. Her daughter mentioned she was about 140 pounds overweight. Scary.
I did not do well eating today. A bit of celebration and nerves. Tomorrow I will do good.
Stay in there everyone.
Shelley0 -
139.0 at 6:30 this morning!!! My fingers do not know how to hit the 139 numbers. They freaked out!
Going walking w/Bean in a little bit. He's so excited! So, I better go.
Chris0 -
Chris that is awesome. And practice with those fingers! They will get it correct. What do you have planned for your anniversary? Maybe a nice movie. Or a walk somewhere different and interesting? So many choices.
Rocky is looking at a 1940 Buick project car. 4 doors. It will be more comfortable than some of the ones I like. It has all the chrome and a clear title. I told him that he will have to do all the work himself if he gets it.
Shelley0 -
Shelley you say that now, but I bet you are going to get right under that hood with him. I hope he has fun with it. Big Boy Toy!!!
Thanks for your nice words. We don't have anything planned yet. The kids are down in D'land so we'll celebrate w/them after they get back. I don't think I could sit in a movie theater... my back wouldn't like those seats at all. We do have a couple of DVDs we have that we haven't watched yet. Walking is a sure thing...adding another half mile would make my day! We did 1.2 miles this morning.
Going to go read now.
Chris0 -
Chris our theatres all have comfy recliners. Wish yours did. Walk a different route. Much easier to get in that extra distance. They really must love Disneyland. I think they should buy stock in it. And while I probably will help with that far it will not be my project. And he will not be letting any custom shop touch it! Nopey nopey. Now to start choosing a color to knock your socks off! Have you watched the series Highlander? A bit to much nudity and sex for my tastes. But I loved it. I remember having read the book years ago.
Got to go get a drink and watch some television before bed.
Shelley0 -
We walked a different route this morning...got 2 miles done in just under and hour!!
We bought the kids one share of Disney Stock when they got married. They have the certificate hanging on the wall!
A Disney Smile for you...
DDD read all the Highlanders books and watched the series. I need Bosch and Strike Back. I've read all the Bosch books (pretty sure) and as for Strike Back, I just need the guys to keep taking off their shirts and blowing stuff up.
139.4 this morning at...I don't know!!!
Later, my friends,

He’s such a cutie pie, Chris! I’m in love!

Chris is that a fast still on Ronan? Hope all is going well with him. Nice buying them stock! Hope you liked the new route. I love to change it up. I see your fingers are getting to type 139 lots lately. And any show with guys blowing/shooting things up without a shirt is great. Oh but I am also partial to a collared button type shirt flapping in the wind!
We decided to not get the car. More work than I think Rocky wanted to do. Had a really useful migraine today. Just now feeling better.
Kathy what is the name of the condo? I want to look at it so I can dream of being there also.
Oh Chris Lee Mills also has some plans that are worth looking at.
Shelley0 -
139.4 this morning at 7:30. Slept in !!!!
Shelley, yes, that's Ronan's second cast for his thumb surgery. He picked the color...black...and is doing great. The kids felt the second earthquake down in southern California...6.4? maybe?...they are all fine. Disney closes down some of the rides after a quake so they can check for damage. I hope Rocky isn't too sad about the car.
We are trying to find a new toaster. I've gotten two that we are returning...doesn't toast on one side and burns on the other. EGADS!!!! I'll continue to work on it.
Gotta go now.

Shelley it’s called the Amelia Surf and Racquet Club. Our condo is called “Immaculate.” You can find it on Trip Advisor.

Kathy I will look for it. I do Hope it lives up to its name.
Sounds fun. And Ron will be so excited!
Chris so glad everyone is ok. Love that they run precautionary checks after the earth gives them a push. I had thought Ronan was cast free by now. How blind of me! And Rocky is still looking. He was bummed but better today.
We had a lot of weather changes yesterday. That is why I believe my head hurt so bad. Still hurt a little when I woke up. Better now.
Ok so I was working on my food diary. And looked up the brownies I had. 220 calories each, I had 2, and they were tasteless! So why did I eat them??? I have no idea but I am not eating another!
Shell0 -
Almost forgot Kathy 153.4 this morning. Still doing a lot of bouncing.
Shell0 -
Shelley, he got his new cast two days after my surgery. I was in Vacaville and he was in Oakland. He was IN and OUT...I got to stay a while. That was the reason we weren't all together for either surgery. Couldn't put either one off. He'll get this one off July 29th.
Chris0 -
184.8 this morning. Feeling good and positive! I have swimming lessons this week Mon-Thurs. These will be hour classes with my favorite instructor. We’re concentrating on my strokes as I’m very tentative with those. As I told her it’s difficult to kick, breath and stroke all at the same time! but this is my week to figure it out.
