newbeg- love the pictures!

Have a good day all!0 -
Progress report....I made it through the two weeks of being on the road and continuing the Insanity workouts. Monday was Fit Test day and frankly...I KILLED IT! I improved on all 8 of the tests over the first time I took it two weeks ago. My daughter came down to see what I was doing and counted the reps for me. I was great hearing her words of encouragement behind me...telling me when I reached my previous score. Super motivating! And the reward??? Weigh in today was down to 176! Only 11 lbs to get to my goal weight.
I have read a lot of posts about lifting, but I really don't know my way around the weight room. Any recommendations for some lifting exercises that I could do at home with a couple of dumb bells? I would like to get some more definition in my arms, shoulders and especially my core.
Thanks in advance! Have a wonderfully outstanding week everyone!0 -

Hi, everyone! Would love to joing this group! I'm 43, and trying to get fit for real this time. Hitting the weights to build back that muscle that time has taken from me!!! I use a fitbit and try to get at least 10,000 steps a day and am lost when it come to eat this, don't eat that type stuff. I mostly have to do lower carb/sugar since diabetes runs in my fam, and I'm fairly sensative to them.
I just got married (2nd marriage) in March, and have one son, and my husband has two that we get for the summer. Bout to be a busy, ACTIVE, summer!!
Nice to meet everyone!!!!!0 -
Hi rhonderoo.
Yesterday's meal-planning went very well and I ended up about 35 calories UNDER for the day. I'm sure there's "salt bloat" on my body, right now, but that'll be off by tomorrow or Friday, so I'm not worried.
Today, I get to lift. I'll step on the scale today AND friday just to make sure I'm getting the right scale weight reading.0 -
Good afternoon All! Had a nice surprise yesterday. I got out of work early and found that my grandson was still at my house! My daughter had some things to do after work and then came over a little later and she and I went on my two mile route walk while grandpa watched the little man! Nice night.
Rest day today and the gym tomorrow. Yeah!0 -

yay for seeing your grandson, kellysue!
I expect all the "peeps" in between your post and my post are just 'drive-by's", so I'm paying ZERO attention.
I got my lifting in. For whatever reason, I'm super-hungry today. So, I already had my protein shake and usually that's it until supper-time. But, I just downed a protein bar, too (1/2 carbs, and 1/2 protein - about 230 calories).
I hope that holds off the hunger until supper-time - which is, like 5 HOURS away. Ugh.
Hey, cataract surgery is now "looming" for me. CATARACTS - AT MY AGE!!!
Ugh, ugh, ugh.0 -
