    Oh, and one more thing. A confession. :blushing: Today I am one pound heavier than my "ticker" states. On the other hand, if that's all the damage from two weeks away from home and out of routine, I feel lucky. Well, it's not just luck. I was careful about choices most of the time. At least it's not the three pounds up that I registered last week!

    Eat your greens, drink your water, get up and play. Dance in the kitchen! :happy:

    Opps the above post was meant to be a response to ediesmommy...and I forgot to put her name there! That was for you ediesmommy

    Kat

    Thanks!! I'm adjusting, but still keeping my eating under control. I never gave much thought to what I ate (before mfp), now I check out everything!!

    Thanks for the encouragement... I CAN do this!!

    Hello Ladies :happy:

    well I am back and happy to say I made it through a week of youth camp. :bigsmile: It was a lot of fun and a lot of work , but well worth the effort, One of the Ladies that work with me in the kitchen also was my walking buddy, we walked to the park office which was 1.5 miles up and down hills, so it seemed a lot harder to me. we also took a very steep hilly trail also 1.5 miles to a bridge that went over the lake! I took some photos and when I can learn how I will post them. it was not a easy trail for me and I was sweating , but I finshed it . lifting heavy pans and cooking and cleaning I feel that I work out hard and did not have any trouble sleeping at night up early befor anyone to start coffee and last to bed, I am happy to be home. Still I can't wait to do it all again next year. all the Kids have grown so much and I love seeing friends and kids from other churchs in our assemebly. I could tell you so many storys but they will have to waite. My eating was not the best and I gained 4 pounds , however I do believe that some of it is water so I will rewaigh myself in a day or two. hope you all had a great week as well:happy:

    Janemartin02 : It is fun helping with VBS , The kid are so cute , its a lot of work and so nice you could be a part of it , I'm sure your church was happy to have you there. sure hope your DH is feeling better soon!

    welcome Suzziee: you will find a lot of help and encoragement here! :wink:

    Kackie :Your get away to the beach:glasses: sounds wonderful, It helps sometimes to get away and unwine alittle every now and then. I love walking on the beach in the morning, it is so peaceful befor all the other people are up and it gets busy.

    4 thoseiluv : can I ask what is the DASH diet plan and is it low salt , I am interested because I have high BP also , I have to take meds for it.:ohwell: have a great cook out or B BAR-Q ! :smile:


    well hope you all have a wonderful eveing ! Ho, and our theme for camp this year is ( How Big is God) something to think about.

    I looked at 100 lunges a day?????? I can barely do 10 and I hurt for days. My goal is to exercise daily, just some. Suffer vertigo badly and have been dizzy most of may. Still losing weight but not getting in the exercise. Every time I want to exercise I seem to be dizzy. I set a goal for 20min a day but have failed. I am amazed at someone who could possibly do 100 lunges in a day.

    Had a great get away to the beach. We rode bikes and flew our kite. It was all so romantic and we had a great time. Long walks on the beach too. The weather wasn't bad yesterday but it was rainy this morning so we came home with enough time to get the dogs from the Kennel. I hope you all have a super Sunday.

    :bigsmile: :bigsmile: :bigsmile: :bigsmile: :bigsmile:Today is Sasha’s fifth birthday. We sang to her this morning and gave both dogs some special treats purchased for the occasion. Jake and I are doing an Isagenix cleanse day so we’ve been relaxing and enjoying watching the US Open Golf Tournament.

    :flowerforyou: Welcome to all the new faces on this thread. I hope you will keep coming back and become part of the family. Don’t worry if you don’t remember names or if you can’t do as much exercise as others. We all started somewhere and one day at a time, taking baby steps we moved along to where we are now.

    :flowerforyou: Nobody starts with 100 lunges or running a 5K or lifting 35 pounds. Just start somewhere and never, never, never give up.

    :heart: Barbie from NW Washington

    Have you tried a recumbent stationary bike? You aren't "perched" up high like on a regular bike... it may help. That way you can still be active, but not in danger!

    Kat - the house next door to me is for sale <hint, hint> And the cost of living isn't as high as it is in CA. We have a pretty laid back HOA. Biggest problem is that you can't get as much healthy food here in NC as you can in CA. On the bright side, tho -- no In And Out Burger. Of course, Vince doesn't see that as a bright side....lol Do you know that 2-1/2 years ago we had a snowstorm that collapsed this gazebo we had over our table on the deck. That Christmas my son and another guy took it down. I moved it off the deck onto the grassy area. JUST NOW Vince is contacting the garbage company to see if it can be recycled and where to take it since it's all aluminum. It's only taken him 2-1/2 years. I'm willing to bet that if your dh wants something done, it gets done asap. When we moved to this house, Vince wanted to build a 2 car detached garage. We were here for two years and it got built. When we bought this house I wanted an inground pool. JUST NOW it's getting put in, and only because I've been hounding Vince for it and had everyone else asking him about it.

    Did an hour of training games on the Wii today. Tomorrow yoga and then the extremepump class. I understand that a new grocery store is opening, so I'll check it out. I need a few things, and they might have them since the store is pretty new. They also have sweet potatoes on sale for 67 cents

    kackie - I know what you mean by feeling "out of it" when you don't have Internet. We didn't have it at the condo, and then last year Ken brought his MiFi from work so we had access all day long. After he left, took us one day and we bought a MiFi to use down there. It's worth it in the long run.

    Vince wants me to help him cut down some trees today since it's pretty nice. That reminds me, I want to get my large water bottle out of the pantry so I can take it outside with me. Update: I used the one insulated cup that I have. It's the same size (34oz) and I'd really prefer the insulated one so I put the other in recycling

    Deb - thanks for the kind words about my posts. Honestly, I have a short attention span so that's why I need to change up my exercises. I have to exercise first thing in the morning or it just doesn't happen for me. Fortunately, Vince likes to sleep late (9:00) so I can usually get in exercise at home before he gets up or else I leave if I'm going to the Y or someplace else many times before he gets up. I started out exercising 2 days/week, then 3, then 4, now I usually do 5. The weekends are usually active recovery days (yoga, balance games, training games, pilates). Congrats on the weight loss! Awesome! I don't think I could run a 5K. Walk it, now that's something I could do. Good luck to you. To me, yoga is almost all stretching. I like Rodney Yee's videos (which reminds me, I haven't done his "yoga Burn" DVD in a while, gotta get that one out.)

    Vince and I were outside cutting down lots of the weeds that had grown by the power lines. We didn't know it, but we are responsible for taking care of this land. Honestly, I thought we were and I mentioned it to Vince a few times. As usual, he didn't do anything about it (oops, sorry, he did buy this weed eater thing) until the HOA mentioned it. Supposedly we have until July 1 to get it taken care of, but honestly, they are so laid back, as long as they see that we are working on it, they'll give us more time. So I'm not concerned. I'm just glad that it's getting done. Don't know what'll happen to the rest of the land by the power lines that isn't our property. We don't plan to maintain it.

    Nancy - that's wonderful that you can go to the aquafit class now! I tell you, one bad thing about the farmer's markets is that I'm running out of room in my freezer! Strawberries aren't in season now and I only have about 2 more containers, maybe one. But on the bright side, blueberries will be in soon!

    ediesmom - I check out everything, too. Sometimes I wonder if I'm not a bit obsessive about it. But I guess there are worse things you can obsess about.

    DASH = Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension, so, yes, it is low sodium.

    I made these granola bars, I think they're quite good, honestly. They did need to be refrigerated, tho before I cut them up. When they were still warm, I did mark where the cuts should be so after they cooled, they were much easier to cut.

    Then I made a meatloaf for later in the week. Pretty moist, there were a few things that I wanted to use up so I made this recipe. If I didn't have those things that I wanted to use up, I probably would have made another recipe.

    Well, here's hoping everyone has a great evening.

    Well I thought I would be back on track...but with kids home I admit to lack of control!! LOL! Well took DS:sad: to airport this am for a 5:30 am flight...left home at 3:15...so needless to say a very lazy day! Had a great 10 days with him:smooched: but am not hating the quiet tonight...how does that work...miss them but like the peace??? Anyway back to business tomorrow, exercise and strict logging. I think I am going to try staying within (under) 1400 calories for food regardless of what my exercise is and see how that works for me...the net numbers don't seem to be working for me.:grumble:

    Welcome to all who have found us:flowerforyou: ...I love this group...support, humor, info and venting!! Speaking of which...hubby 's taking their time...mine is king in that Dept..my siblings take bets on projects in our house...after 25+yrs..I just go with it because it always looks great at the end!:laugh:

    The day is catching up with me..have a great night all..:flowerforyou: :love: hugs and prayers for those who need them and high fives for all of us for logging, posting or just reading!

    Well I am not logging my food, considered it a cheat day/ Spending time with my grandkids and eating with them is so much healthier for my soul than calorie counting.

    Son had to work today so did stay long enough to see him and wish him a happy father's day I am proud of the man he has become.

    Hope everyone had a great week-end.Hubby is finally feeling better,got some prescription cough medicine.Thanks for all your concerns.
    Spent time with hubby and daughter.Went to the pool with Violet and daughter.My favorite form of exercise,swimming.esp.when it`s in the 80`s or 90`s.
    Love Barbie`s advice,just start,no one starts at 100 lunges.As long as you are doing something to change your bad habits and try to live more healthier lifestyle,that`s all that matters.
    Have a great night!!
    HUGS

    I have the same problem that you are having. Hard work but the weight is not comming off. I went to the doctor last month for a complete exam and blood work, everythng came back negative. I have been eating lots of fruits and vegetables and lean meats.
    Still not losing weight. I am soooooo fustrated.

    :flowerforyou: Welcome, Marisa,
    There are many women on this thread facing the same frustration and they subscribe to the manta of "never, never, never give up"
    What kind of exercise are you doing? Can you add a bit more or change it up a bit? Are you super accurate about measuring your food? Are you logging everything you put in your mouth? I'm sure others will have some excellent suggestions or some reassuring thoughts.

    I hope you'll come back every day and tell us more about yourself and join in the discussions.

    the work challenge starts today. I must get 10,000 steps aday for the next 6 weeks to get the $100 gift cert. I can do this.

    DH and I are off on another B & B weekend this week. We will be in Port Townsend (*waves to Barbie*) I am so looking forward to it.

    Time to get walking.

    Have a magnificent Monday all.

    Hi to all ~ I just restarted on MFP today. You know the old story ~ thought I could do it myself, read the books, spoke to friends, but the bottom line for me is tracking every day. It's the only way I have any success. Actually tried a few different sites to get a feel for their tracking system. Sparkpeople is far too busy for me, Lose It works nicely with syncing to my scale, but their database of foods is so limited. So, I'm crawling back (head held down in shame) to admit that this site is the one that's best for me.

    It's going to take me some time to get to know everyone, but I'm sure I'll eventually catch up enough to start posting regularly. Support is so important to this journey of ours! Thanks for having me back in the fold...

    Deborah :flowerforyou:

    Welcome Deborah!

    I too came crawling back after trying to do it myself:blushing: so you are in good company. Since Barbie has been on here for at least 4 years I guess I should have taken a cue from her because she continues to be successful:wink: and showing us how to maintain once the goal is met.

    laura80111:smile:

    PS...now I will have to read the rest of the posts to geta caught up from the weekend.

    Happy, happy, Monday :happy:

    Ediesmommy – yes, you can! :drinker:

    Rpphillip - glad to hear you made it through youth camp! Well done, and lucky for those children to have such a dedicated team to work for them. :flowerforyou:

    Welcome, plfeery. :happy:

    Barbie, you are so right: “just start somewhere…” I can’t believe what I am able to do now compared to a year ago when I started exercising at our gym – and that’s while wearing a walking cast on my left leg! :noway:

    Michelle, I’m inspired by your post – (as usual) and will thaw some ground and make a meatloaf. My boys like it in sandwiches. We are getting another 30 lbs of locally raised beef (organic and all that) delivered this week for summer BBQs, so I need to make room in the freezer.

    Marisa, Hi. Drinking lots of water works for me – on top of being honest about food and exercise, of course. Hope to hear from you again.

    Great excitement today, I am going to re-arrange my kitchen cupboards and listen to the European soccer championship games. Can you tell I am running out of things to do at home?:ohwell: Stay tuned…

    Hasta pronto,

    Nancy

    Goals for June:
    At least 4 aqua fit classes - something new to shake up the routine.
    24 hours of exercise including weight training – I’m at 10 hours 30 minutes!
    Get the routine chores done – no procrastination!
    Act the way I want to feel. Be kind.

    well, I got 19 min on a rower yesterday. This is the only exercise equipment I have right now. It made me dizzy but I made it thru. Will try again today. I am determined not to look like a 52+ yr old and get my health in better shape.

    :flowerforyou: Another smokey day in Colorado:cry:

    The fires are north and south of us and the smell of smoke is in the air again today. A new fire started on Friday (I think) just outside of Colorado Springs so with the big fire up north and a smaller one south of us the smell is like a campfire, which I would love if I was camping:ohwell: Surprising us yesterday was the fact that we could actually see the mountains, we haven't been able to see them for over a week due to the smoke, but alas they are no where in sight again today:grumble:

    DeeDee- that lady was fortunate that you were there and that she wasn't hurt. Deer & Elk running across streets and highways is always a problem here and it always makes me feel bad when they are killed:cry:

    Michele- send me the info, don't know when I would be able to follow through on it but it would be handy to have the information.

    Jackie- cute card:flowerforyou: those DIY projects really do have a way of stiffening up our bodies:ohwell:

    Kate- what a fun bike ride, ours are usually to and from our truck not to a restaurant...now that would be a fun bike ride:wink:

    jb- you keep up that exercise, there is nothing to stop you from reaching your goal...soooo close...YOU CAN DO IT:drinker:

    Kat- good idea to let your hubby deal with the HOA, I too get too emotional when there are issues that need dealing with...maybe a woman thing:huh: Congrats on fitting into those clothes in the closet:flowerforyou: I'm into about 1/2 of the clothes that I was wearing back in 2010, I just didn't realized that #10 would make that much of a difference:laugh: for some reason I thought I could wear them once I'd dropped at least #20...but guess not...will HAVE to reach the goal to do it right:wink:

    Nancy- your time away with hubby sounds like you really enjoyed yourself. Glad you got the hug before your son disapeared...teenagers have a way of doing that. Teaching 7th grade:flowerforyou: you get the star of sainthood for that:flowerforyou: Oh I so wish I was at home long enough to do all those project that take time ie deep leaning, sorting out stuff, picture sorting, etc... only having weekends just isn't enough time to start on of those as you have to make another mess before you can clean it up:huh:

    Jane- your PT sounds like you are determined...and that's a good thing:flowerforyou:

    Kackie- isn't it amazing our out of touch you feel when you don't have your internet:grumble:

    Deborah- great job on planning the food for your BBQ:drinker:

    plfeery- Welcome:flowerforyou: so sorry to hear that you are experiencing vertigo. I have meniere's and have the vertigo about 2 or 3 times a year:sick: it's always a good feeling when the world stops spinning and you can move normally again. 19 minutes on a rower is quite a bit:happy:

    Robin-glad the beach and the walks on it were wonderful:flowerforyou:

    Jen- isn't it amazing how much we miss them when they are gone and when they come home it's so wonderful and noisey...then when they leave again the quiet is so wonderful:wink: we experience it everytime the kids come to visit and we wonder how we ever lived with all that activity and noise all the time:tongue:

    Irishgirl, connie, luckyinlove, emnel, ediesmommy, suzziee,- Welcome:flowerforyou:

    *****
    The weekend was so busy that I didn't get to do near what I wanted to. Saturday was spent helping Son #3 & DIL move (they bought pizza for lunch...I tried to be good) and the evening was at a BBQ at Son #2 & DIL where I was not quite as good (had a brownie but made sure it was small). Sunday we went back to Son #3's and they took us out to dinner for Chinese Food to celebrate Father's Day ( since it was Father's Day hubby got to choose where to eat and his favorite is Chinese). So last night I had a salad for dinner and a lot of water to wash out the sodium of the weekend.

    I'm back at work where my meals are planned for the week, that's the good part. The fact that I'm at work is the bad part as I really would rather be at home:ohwell:

    Everyone have a good day, log the food, drink the water and let's keep moving.:drinker:

    :blushing: Hello everyone, I'm returning after a few months of hmmm and since I have the summer off I've decided this was the perfect time to get back to it and work like heck to get more fit. I think it's going to take a village so I'd appreciate some support and look forward to supporting others:flowerforyou:

    :flowerforyou: Happy Monday to everyone!

    Happy indeed ....:happy: we put the lounge back together this morning!! It looks soooo different. I keep walking in and out just to see it!!
    Putting the blind up was to put it mildly ....:grumble: irritating ......we finished the room late last night and shampooed the carpet. Then at 11.30pm tried to put up the blind. "Tried" being the operative word.
    :sad: Feeling really exhausted and by that time ready to throw my dummy out of the pram and stop playing .....I helped DH put the blind up. No luck ...he too was very tired and had put the fitments :noway: upside down!! So we left it 'til this morning. Lo and behold .....the"Make do "gremlin appeared!! :grumble: The fitments were the right way up but the blocks were too low and you could see them below the blind top. "That'll be Ok" quipped DH ...but I knew it would irk me every time I looked at the window!! ....:bigsmile: They're down and up properly now!!

    :drinker: Then we went out for the Mystery Dining assignment. I've logged the meal and now have just realised I've not put the strawberry sundae down. Enough damage done with just the meal taking all my calories!!! We had no breakfast either!!! as we just set to and tidied up the lounge.:embarassed: Oh dear we're out again on Thursday too. Never mind...I'll try and exercise more.

    Our wallpapering ...I've said "Our" as DH was seconded to help cut and paste!!! ..... was interrupted (VeryWelcomely) by a visit from #1 son & DIL + a very stroppy #1 teenage grandson, chirpy#1 grandaughter and sleepy twins!! Said grandaughter took over some wall paper pasting while said grandson stormed off home!! They came bearing gifts for DH's birthday and for Father's Day. Plus...a welcome sponge cake which disappeared in seconds.

    :heart: :heart: The twins (10 wks)are growing steadily but still under 8lb! They're feeding well and they're begining to smile which is so good to see. I must admit to be rather worried about their development, although haven't said so to mum and dad.Eye co ordination just doesn't seem to be there and as I haven't experience of small babies (not really prem though) I don't know what to expect. I just hope and pray they're OK.

    Anyway.... Im coming clean about not up dating my ticker on my return to MFP ...so have done it now. Still just below my original start but not quite as good as it seemed!! Must try harder!!!....:laugh: where have I heard that before???

    DH is at work and I must now do some ironing ....it seems that all my clothes have disappeared into the ironing basket!!! Wish we could have some nice weather to get out all those summer clothes!. :glasses:

    Hi,
    I am ready to drop 20 lbs and I am over 50 so I am looking forward to reading what other woman my age are accomplishing.
    I do Zumba 3x a week and barre 1x a week. My goal is to continue the exercise and to log everything that I eat. Exercise is so much fun for me but I know it is portion and food choices that are hard for me.

    Happy Monday! :bigsmile: I kept to my plan for food today. Did not get my exercise in :grumble: other than 20 minute lunchtime walk but will tomorrow. This week I am trying to focus on keeping the actual food calories within my goal. I don't know why but when I click on the complete diary button it makes it easier to stop thinking about food...:noway: let's hope that continues!! My life has quieted down (for the moment) so not much else to share tonight.

    Hugs prayers and good wishes to all who are struggling:flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: and high fives to all of us for moving, logging, posting and reading!

    I am back but just temporarily. Have just changed internet providers, so was without internet for a few days. Don't we rely on it now. Anyway very busy. Daughters 21st this thursday, husbands 59th friday and we are all going on our first cruise. Just 3 days. Daughter did not want the big party. So much to organise just for 3 days away. I will need a holiday.
    Must fly will catch up with you all later.

    Cheers

    :yawn: :yawn: :yawn: :yawn: another busy day and off to bed early----hubby keeps making 8 AM appointments for things and if I want to walk the dogs in the morning I have to get up really early to find the time.......I am so grateful for the early sunrise at this time of year.

    :bigsmile: went for a wonderful long walk with a friend in her new neighborhood today :bigsmile: she'll come to mine on Wednesday.

    :flowerforyou: Robin, you will have a fabulous time in Port Townsend.....beautiful town, great places to walk :bigsmile: :bigsmile: wish I were just a bit closer so I could see you.

    Jen - what is it with hubbys taking their time. Vince really thinks things out. Like this pool install -- he's already made about 8 versions of the pump system. He wants to understand it. Me? I'm happy with knowing where the on/off switch is. We got the initial pool proposal picture, he's ALREADY made two revisions to it. But I must say, things do look good after he's done, he really thinks things thru.

    Sherry - you're so right, eating with the grandkids and spending time with them is so much more important! Glad you had a good time.

    Marisa - I have to ask you, are you checking your body fat? How are your cloths fitting? Losing weight is great, but, to be honest, I think at some point our bodies get to where we can't lose any more weight, but we can redistribute things, and my bet is that that's what's happening to you. barbie had some good questions. Are you logging EVERYTHING? Sometimes our bodies need a change of exercise -- be it frequncy, intensity, sometimes time.

    Nancy - now don't go and get too worked up over the things you have to do today....lol


    Did 30 minutes of a Denise Austin yoga DVD then went to the extreme pump class. Afterwards, stopped at one food store, this was the first day they were opened. They really didn't change much at all from the store that was there before. The layout is the same, only now they're carrying their own products. To me, I was hoping for something different.

    Don't know what it is, but my eyes are burning something terrible.

    Jen - have fun on your cruise. Where are you going?

    Welcome everyone new!

    The guy who is going to install the pool is supposed to come here tomorrow. We'll give him all our final changes and then he can make up a contract. As soon as that is signed, we go on the list to be done.

    Here's hoping everyone has a great evening.

    Marisa,
    Don't get discouraged my scale hasn't moved. But I have had many NSV. Clothes looser, inches lose. Mirror isn't near as mean to me, as it once was. Keep it up. Just go ahead rant and rave we are hear to listen.
