:flowerforyou: the TC10K (walk) was amazing this morning. I had a great finish of 91 minutes, the weather was dry and sunny, and I was cheered on by family and friends, including my MFP friends.
Although I have signed up for 2 more walking races, I have been thinking about being involved in another (outside) sport that works on my upper body and had been contemplated to learn rowing. Wouldn't you know, I just met a couple who run these programs and they invited me to participate in dragon boating (instead of rowing, which is harder and more expensive).
What do you think? It will be 2x week Mondays and Thursdays after work till the end of August. Go for it? Can my body do it?
Thanks again my friends,
Renny

Dear Renny, I do stationary rowing every day on a machine. When I started I could only do about 40 calories worth, then I managed 80. Now I easily do 200. It takes me about 28 minutes. My advice would be, yes, you can definitely do it, but take it slowly. There is a lot of technique to it to avoid injury etc. It's tempting when you start a new activity to just go for it, but I would pace myself and build up your strength bit by bit.
Good luck. It's great for your back, your abs, your legs, and not too hard on the joints.:bigsmile:0 -
Suebdew – How are you feeling now? I had some similar experiences in the months prior to finding out I needed to have a heart valve replaced. Couldn’t quite pin down what it was, but I felt weird and would think I was just overheated, tired, etc. Please get it checked out if it continues.
Jane Martin – wishing you loads of fun and good memories in your new place. Start a new tradition to celebrate the new beginning. :flowerforyou:
My MIL celebrated her kids’ half-birthdays when they were growing up. She would bake a cake and stack it so it was a half circle, have half the candles, etc. I thought that was a great way to bring extra festivity into their lives. DH’s dad passed away when DH was just 4 years old, so his mom raised 3 kids on her own back in a time when it was probably even harder than now.
Meg – really, I’m so glad I had boys! They were so straight forward and easy to figure out. Not to say they didn’t get annoyed, but done was done once it was over. My younger DS pulled some intentionally painful things in his late teens/early twenties, though – a la Michele’s current dilemma. All is good now, though, so sometimes you just have to let them beat their heads on the wall. The difference between our 2 DS can be explained this way: DS1 will need to make a decision so he will research, read, talk to a variety of people (including us) and make up his mind. DS2 will need to make a decision so he will research, read, talk to a variety of people – but be pi**ed off if they don’t share his opinion -- then do whatever he wants anyway. That has improved a lot in recent years, but DS2’s personality has always been like dancing with a porcupine. (More like his dad that he would want to admit.)
RE: Betty Grable – don’t you think the pictures of that era were a lot more glamorous? I have a cool picture of my mom that is fabulous! (You wouldn’t think she was someone’s mom, for sure.)
Dreary, rainy day in the Atlanta area today so I got my hour of walking done inside the house since I didn’t feel like going out in the rain to go to the Y. I’ll go there tomorrow after work and lift weights again, plus cardio.
Hard to believe it is the end of April – time is flying!
We ended up with the soup and grilled cheese sandwiches last night for dinner. Tonight is venison tenderloin, baked potatos and green beans. Hope DH hurries home from the pharmacy – I’m hungry tonight.
In Georgia you are entitled by law to one free credit report from each reporting agency every year, so I did that chore today by pulling our credit reports online. It’s a good idea to check your reports at least annually and I skipped it in 2012. After doing that I set up the bill pay items for the first of the month and some other paperwork. Still have NOT updated my ICE [in case of emergency] document, but need to get that done since it has been on the to-do list since January.
Need to check on supper. Have a good night!
Gail, metro Atlanta0 -
Sue – Of course I know who the beautiful Betty Grable is! What legs, and that tush!
Liz – Congrats on completing the Autism Walk/Run – hope your feet and ankle feel better!
Viv – So sorry about your kitty! Glad you caught it and got her treated. It’s so hard when our “babies” are in pain
DeeDee – Dillon the WonderDog is a rescue mutt, we ‘think’ he may be a combo of boston terrier and beagle but it’s really anyone’s guess. He’s super smart and super sweet and I’m so glad we found each other. We lost our two girls last May within 4 days of each other (they were both 16) :sad: , and I hadn’t been “dog-less” in more than 30 years. Took me until August to start looking for a new best friend.
CityJane – You deserve your “vanity” and to wear something tight and fitted that makes you feel fabulous! Just be sure to post a photo from the party so we can all see your fabulousness :happy:
M. – I stumbled upon The Bloggess site the day she posted about Copernicus and have been hooked ever since. Last I heard Beyonce had lost a leg in a moving mishap but was awaiting the welding torch :laugh:
Bonita – Yes, isn’t kale fabulous??? Love it! I too am really a smoothie lover, have one 3-4 mornings/week (I add protein powder and ground flax seeds for fiber and protein boost) and they taste great and keep me full. An early “Happy Birthday” to you!!!! :flowerforyou:
Cottagegal1 – Welcome, join us often for laughs, understanding and support
Liz from Halifax – Praise be the arrival of Spring!! I too love “sandal weather”
Grandmallie – Sounds like a lovely day you’ve had, glad you were able to get out (and sit out) to enjoy the sunshine!
Renny – congrats on your fine race today and good for you for signing up for two more :drinker:
Meg – Sorry you’re dealing with “attitude”! Healing prayers for Benny the Beagle that his surgery is successful and his healing rapid and you for you and yours in dealing with it all :flowerforyou:
Gail – I too have a “glamour shot” of my mom from the ‘40s that is very ‘pin-up girl’ It’s one of my all-time favorites of her (my mother-in-law has one too, she looked just like Marilyn Monroe!)

HI everyone out there in MFP Vit F land. It's been a long time since I've been on the board here. I read as far back as the beginning of this section (10 pages no less - wow) so I guess I'm sort of up to date with things. Sounds like some tings are resolved, some are ongoing and some new stuff - life goes on.
I've been dealing with a family issue for a few weeks and haven;t felt much like communicating, DD1 split up with her partner after 9 years, very distressing for everyone. Love him like a son, love her and need to support her totally which is what a parent should do, wish there was a way they could work through it, but all in all, it's not my life, it's theirs. They've done the counselling route so I guess it's final now. You always want to protect your children from pain but they have to learn from their own painful issues, we never learn enough from others I guess to avoid our own.
I'm still sort of plateauing, but at least at a lower level now. I think I'm going to just try to maintain over the summer and then kick it up again in fall (when the new fashions come in doncha know). Seriously, I think I just want to relax a bit and eat healthy without the focus on losing for a bit.
I've got a few busy weeks coming up at work, audit completion, 5 year financial plan public presentation, property tax calculations and then off to a conference. After that I will go and help my DD1 pack up the house and sort, store and ship stuff.
Yesterday and today I spent doing garden cleaning, lawn mowing, weed eating etc. Outside looks good now, spring bulbs in bloom, forsythia a riot of gold, maple flowers that wonderful new green before the leaves come on. And the yard smells wonderful with the hyacinths and violets perfuming the air. I love spring.
Better go plan some dinner. I made Pad Thai from scratch last night which was a first for me. I think the sodium was high from the soy sauce, maybe tamarind paste too, I'll have to look that up and see what the level is. So tonight I think I will have a nice fresh salad and finish up with minted strawberries, maybe some citrus in there.
Night all, hope your Sunday was good. (And I'm so impressed with the walking race Renny and the Autism Walk Liz). And Linda Sundance, a 91% shot rate after only a year is amazing, I'm sure your daughter is well on her way to the next summer Olympics.

:bigsmile: I found an interesting easy recipe in "Thinner This Year" so I talked Jake into trying it with me today.......tofu scramble
firm tofu scrambled with onion and salsa.......Jake make a great low sodium salsa from a spice mix he orders by mail mixed with petite diced tomatoes....so the whole thing was easy, low calorie, high nutrition, and low sodium......I loved it, he said he'd be willing to try it again.
:bigsmile: today the dog groomers are at the house so it's not as peaceful as usual....we adore these girls and love having them here and they do a great job.
:bigsmile: I slept late again this morning and tried going without cold medicine and found that I'm actually almost over my cold----YIPPEE----but I'm taking it easy
a little work in the yard, laundry, and a few household chores. Barbie from NW Washington 0 -
I just love listening to all you ladies talk about your gardening. Me and gardening do not mix!:frown: First obstacle I have is my MS. I can't heat my body up or any symptom I have will come back. When I cool back down they disapear. Second obstacle is the lawn mower. It would mow anything down I succeeded in doing! Years ago we put some azalea bushes between the bushes in our front yard. My husband loves the bushes because they grow BIG. Being big means protecting the house. So the big bushes have killed off every azalea but one. So I love looking at it and the 'spring' rains have really made it blossom. I'll have to cut off a branch or whatever you call it and take it into my MIL. It will perk up her nursing home room.

Hi, Ladies!
Today's been another drizzly, drippy, and dreary day. The only high spot was a visit from our DD and family. We hadn't seen them for a few weeks, so it was nice indeed.
Meg, as I was reading one of your posts, I smiled. Our DD was a real stinker in her teenage years and drove DH and me crazy. She lied, refused to help around the house, etc. etc. When she was in college, she refused to show us her grades. We were so frustrated and didn't know what to do. Fortunately, she grew up and is sorry for what she put us through but adds that she needed to make her own mistakes. At any rate, hang in there and stay on your knees, if you know what I mean. Things will get better.
More yard work is on the agenda for tomorrow. Whoo hoo!!
Sharon in Michigan0 -
Liz - congrats on the great walk today, and best of luck to you in Aug. You'll do well, I just know it. Last year during the winter I usually walked on a treadmill, then when the weather got nice a neighbor and I went for a walk. I thought "oh, this'll be no problem, I've been walking all winter. I even use at least a 1% incline". But I was out of breath. Walking outside is very different from walking inside.
Viv - glad that abcsess burst while you were at the vets
It's very dreary outside today, rainy and all. Am drinking hot tea, it's on the chilly side too. I think later this week they're calling for it to get nicer, but who knows? Probably even the weathermen don't know.
M - fats and sweets combined are my downfall, that's for sure (like butter and sugar). You're so right, artificial sweeteners can be so bad. I'd rather have a little of the real stuff or none at all. That acesufame potassium (I probably misspelled that) is nasty stuff. CSPI didn't rate it highly at all. There are a few (with emphasis on the word few) items that only contain sucralose, but not very many. I think I was more ashamed of the fact that I actually considered not logging my excesses, and I know that would have led me down a very very slippery slope. So I'm ashamed that I was really considering it, but glad you all got me back to reality and logging -- even tho it wasn't so good. In our old house we had a cat door so our cat went in and out. It one time brought in a rabbit, which proceeded to go behind the buffet and die. For the longest time there was this horrible smell, nothing we did would get rid of it, and we had no idea where the smell was coming from. Then for some reason Vince had to move the buffet and we found it!
bonita - yes, apples have a good sugar in them (unless you're a diabetic, then you have to watch them). Happy early birthday
Did 45 minutes of a training game on the Wii today. Cut it short because I wanted to have breakfast and then need to go to church. Tomorrow I'll do some yoga and then take the extremepump class. They're starting a Powercuts class at the Y (which is like the extremepump) but the only day they're having it in the morning is on Wed. and I can't make it on Wed. Two of the Wed's a month we have a Newcomer meeting and I really like the deep water instructor so I don't want to miss her class which is at the same time as the Powercuts. Bummer. but good news is that I'm pretty sure they have WiFi so if needed I can take my laptop and do a bodypump workout earlier on a Monday (if I need to)
Jane - so glad your move is done
Meg - how I sympathize with you about your daughter! I tried to call Bryan today, but in the end I started crying. I don't think I'll try calling him again because I will probably just end up crying, and he interprets my crying as my not accepting him living abroad and wanting to make him feel guilty. Please don't ask me to explain that one. If he would just call me more often, I probably won't feel this way. Actually, I KNOW I wouldn't. It happened once before so I know it'll happen again. Wouldn't surprise me if I don't even get a call for mother's day.
Here's hoping everyone has a great evening.
Michele in NC0 -
Meg: I sympathize with your situation with your daughter. I’ve been there. My daughter is now a mom and, in a few more years, she should be getting her own dose of teenage daughter behavior.:laugh: I’m looking forward to it. Raising kids is a huge challenge. I wish you the gifts of patience and humor. Moms need both.:flowerforyou:
I can share the macaroni salad recipe, but you’ll have to reach your own conclusions about whether it is healthy. This was how my mom taught me to make macaroni salad, although no ingredients were ever precisely measured. I cut everything down to provide reasonable portions for two adults to share over 2 or 3 meals. We usually make a huge batch for picnics and get togethers. Just multiply everything for the size of your group.
1 C salad macaroni( dry) boiled until al dente (2C cooked)
2 HB eggs, peeled & chopped
1/8 C green onion, chopped
2 Nalley baby dill pickles, diced (any brand will do but might change the nutrition info)
1/8 C celery, chopped
2 tablespoons Best Foods Mayonaisse (Hellmans)
1 tsp yellow mustard (to taste)
pepper to taste
Fresh parsley, chopped and stirred in, or sprig on top.
Mix it all together and chill.
Makes 3 cups
Serving size ½ C
Calories 164, Carbs 16, Fat 4, protein 7, sodium 114 (and I added none), sugar 2. I added a little salt to mine at the table but DH didn’t. He liked it fine, and I honestly liked it without added salt, too.
:drinker:
Renny: Congratulations on completing your 10 K!:flowerforyou:
Barbie: I’m sure my husband would like to order the spice mix for home made salsa. Can you give enough details for us to find it online?:flowerforyou:
Today we went out looking for a plant to fit a shady spot where the boxwood died and was taken out. Boxwood is out of the question because the old one died of a soil born boxwood virus and a new one would also die. I have a list of plants I’m interested in as possible replacements. We saw one of the plants on the list, but it was only about 3 inches tall and will have to audition again when it grows up. We tracked two others down in a Portland Nursery. We’ll go in and have a look on Wednesday when we’re in Portland anyway.:bigsmile:

Hello Ladies,
Thank you all for your words of encouragement!
Today had been very beautiful weather wise just lovely. I went to church and than grocery shopping. Other than that it was a day of rest for me.
@Meg I am sorry about the hard time you are having with your DD. My 19 yr old still has those moments. Its hard but I know it won't always be like this.
@Michele I enjoy doing workouts on my Wii. I haven't in awhile. Your posts reminds me of this. I will need to get it out next time.
@Jane glad your move is done.
@Katla. I like your macaroni recipe. I have one that is similar too it I will have to give yours a try
@Renny. Congrats on completing your 10k.
On my way to bed. just exhaust.
Good night everyone!0 -
I have been looking at recipes and I found this one that looks simple and it has weight watcher 7 points plus on it. What does that mean???0

Good morning ladies from blue skied London.
It is not warm and is decidedly blustery, but I’ve managed to have the back door open for a while to ‘air the house’. Just about to hang out the second load of washing. A satisfying feeling – watching clean laundry dance on the washing line.
I’m not sure why, but the protein mix breakfast that I have every day has suddenly started to make my stomach feel really heavy and bloated so I’m going to try having scrambled eggs and spinach for the next couple of mornings, see how that feels.
This morning I have to take my dad to the hospital for an appointment and then I’m taking him shopping. I really want to buy myself a yellow dress for my niece’s first holy communion. Truthfully I should just wear something I already have. There are so many dresses in my wardrobes – many that I haven’t even worn yet. For some reason I want yellow! There’s just about every other colour in my collection, but not yellow. My niece is called Daisy Bee and I have a beautiful bracelet with daisies on that would look fab with a yellow dress. I do get ideas stuck in my head sometimes!
Well, the washing is not going to hang itself out, so I’m off to do that.
Have a good week my Vit Fs.
Love to all
Amanda x0 -
well I have payed for my sins I guess...I got on the scale and have gained 4 freakin lbs overnight..

Good morning beautiful ladies:flowerforyou:
Monday morning....once again I have very little time:grumble: :sad: !
Katla
thank you for the recipe, it sounds delish! Looking forward to trying it out!
Amanda I think you would look lovely in a new yellow dress:smokin: ! I know what you mean when you get something stuck in your head like that, one year I searched and searched for a teal dress, when I finally found it I was a happy girl:bigsmile: . Hope you find the perfect one! Maybe new shoes to go with it too?
I`m having lunch with a friend today, her choice...we`re going to a hot dog place:sad: , I like a hot dog on occassion but I really have to be tasting for them, today is not one of those days:frown: :ohwell: . I really dread all the sodium:grumble: .
Hope you all have a wonderful day! Drink your water:drinker: :drinker: :drinker: and log your food!!!

Morning all
It was a busy weekend. A conference all day Sat and Church on Sunday.
A very rainy day with more expected today. I'd love to be hanging clothes outside too but that just won't be happening. No gardening either. It's just plain soggy here!
My goal this week is to be faithful with my food diary and to get my exercise going again. Last week I was going gang busters working in the yard.
We have our son's wedding in less than 8 weeks. My dress will fit better if I lose a little.
Have a good day
Cindy0 -
I'm coming back again for the upteenth time. Started back with tracking which I need. Need to get the scale and my diabetise at a good level. Been bad for about two weeks now that's enough. Working this morning but will be back this afternoon. I need this place bad.
Linda in Northern Ontario where spring finally hit.0 -
DeeDee: Drink lots of water :drinker: :drinker: and plan revenge on your friend. :devil: Have a good time visiting.:flowerforyou:
Cindy: Exercise is my balance strategy. It allows me to “buy” more calories on occasion, and always makes me feel better. I choose exercises I like-yoga, walking, and riding my bike. Barbie dances, and I envy her that but I have two left feet.:flowerforyou:
Lin C: I am so glad you’re back. :bigsmile: I LOVE your sense of humor and miss it so much when you’re not here. Good luck getting back on track.:flowerforyou:
It is raining, there is nothing on the calendar, and I have no plans for the day. In the past I’d spend the day snacking or reading. I need to figure out something more productive to do with my time. I’m between books. I can ride my recumbent on its trainer in the garage but not all day. I’d love to hear other ideas for rainy day activities. Cleaning house has no appeal, whatsoever.:noway: I'm keeping my fingers crossed for a dry spell so I can go walking without getting soaked.
Katla in rainy NW Oregon0 -
DeeDee -- maybe you can get the bun and they'll have veggies you can fill it with. Or maybe they'll have other options available.
RE: my wrist - there is a potential scaphoid bone fracture. Have to get a special brace for now, but a radiologist will review the xrays in the next day or to to determine if I need to see orthopedic doc to be in an actual cast. Hopefully just the brace, but in any event it takes 6-12 months to heal. Guess I'll be sticking to legs/back workouts for the forseeable future.
Came back home after the doc to get breakfast and now have to go get the brace and go to work.
Have a great day!

Good Afternoon ladies!:flowerforyou:
Don't you hate it when you're doing push-ups and you lose count after 1,000... :laugh: I saw this online and thought I'd share it with you all to brighten your day! I had my fitness assessment at the gym after water aerobics class except there wasn't much the trainer could assess since I can't do the treadmill or squats at the moment due to painful knees and foot.:grumble: However, my blood pressure was pretty decent and BMI was in overweight, not obese category (just barely but I'll take it)! She pretty much said to keep doing what I'm doing but to do interval walking instead of just one pace. Then stopped atth e grocery store on the way home and got fixings for a yummy salad for lunch.
Jodios528-Loved the video of Carolyn and Rookie!! Thanks for sharing it!
Gail-Sorry to hear about your wrist!
Will try to catch up on more posts later!

Good morning from overcast San Diego,:laugh:
One more shift to work tonight and then I have one day off! :flowerforyou: Will make it to the gym today. I have taken almost 2 weeks off at the gym with the elliptical and recumbent bike. I have to shock away this plateau somehow.:drinker: So, if my body was used to the exercise and not working to burn more calories....well,, well now have I got a "shock" for it. :laugh: :laugh: I am hoping this mix up will break the plateau.:noway:
Have my pre-op visit tomorrow for surgery on May 8th!:ohwell: Coming up fast! So, carpal tunnel surgery should be easier than a knee replacement! Trying to live in the moment as Barbie has told me!:bigsmile:
We are having a nail trimming clinic at home today! Lol 3 dogs and 2 cats :noway: :noway: all need their nails trimmed and it takes at least 2-3 people to accomplish this feat!:sad:
Let have a good week of taking good care of ourselves, one day, one moment at a time! We are so worth it!:drinker: :drinker:

Hello All,
Just thought I'd update you on my face exercises.
I must have been doing them for about a month now and I do believe I can see a difference. The lines between
my nose and mouth are definitely smoothing out so I have less of a sad bloodhound look. :laugh:
A bit of smoothing around the eyes. Anyway, it's enough for me to feel it's worth keeping going. I did think I was
looking SAD and saggy and that has gone. Hooray!
It only takes me 5 minutes each morning and whenever else in the day I remember to do it. In the morning I do foot and ankle, face
and pelvic floor exercises before I get up. I also have to do lymphatic drainage massage, but the whole thing is done while DH is preparing the muesli and fruit so it doesn't eat into my time.
I know one or two of you were interested.
Doing research on my new dress. It's harder than you think to decide on what you want and what you would get at least some wear out of. I rarely go to smart occasions so don't want anything too dressy or it will stay in the wardrobe. In normal life I never wear a dress. - I'm always in trousers and am not keen on getting my legs out. I feel more like it now I've lost weight and have got some leg makeup to hide flaws and my luminous whiteness! :frown:
Why does something that should be such fun cause such anxiety.? Oh dear!
Love to all and especially those who are wrestling with much bigger problems than I am. 0 -

Sending everyone a quick "bark out". Benny is awake and doing fine. Gallbladder did not look too bad. Liver looked good but they went ahead and biopsied it in three places. They were also able to remove a big fat tumor on his leg that had been growing. More later but I wanted you to know I appreciated all the good thoughts! Meg0
