40+ Club : Where the Cool Kids Are

June 13th I will be over half way through it.....46 and I am about to get half crazy and run my first half marathon in December!

Good morning all! Had Jake this morning. He's such a funny boy- always makes me laugh!

Jackie- so sorry to hear about your neighbor. Ruby is right- we never do know how long we have. Makes it come to light to make sure we treasure those we love even more.

Kickboxing tonight!

Have a good day all :flowerforyou:

Hey Kids....

I miss you all.

I am under a great deal of stress and these headaches are becoming more frequent. I did NOT take extreme fit on Monday. I took Metabolic Training (harder than extreme fit) and TRX back to back on Tuesday and TRX yesterday and afterwards ran with the dog and then walked another 45 minutes.

I caught up on posts and realize there are events to celebrate and there are reasons to give my condolences.

Have a great day everyone.

gingerbird you just have to make up your mind and do it. Make it a new habit. Measure yourself and put it in a safe place and check back after working hard 3 months later. I just checked mine and was surprised at the difference. You just have to make yourself exercise and choose less calorie foods. MFP is such a great resourse for all of us. track your food and be responsible.
So sorry to hear of the co worker's daughter and the neighbor's passing. so hard for the families.
For any newbies out there to join, just check in once in awhile and let us know how you're doing. We are here for each other to help and encourage.
Remember, slow and steady wins the race. Have a great day everyone.

Hey Larro, I read on the whats for supper I think about the desert you made with a small yougart and kool whip and sugar free jello, is there any thing else in it, and how do I make it? I can't find the other post. Sorry.

Just took a long hard look back over my food diary and see lots of room for improvement. With all the stuff going on, the last full correct day I logged my food was two weeks ago. A lot of damage can be done in that time. Not good, but at least I see the error of my ways and I can fix it.

Good morning Cool Kids....Yayyyy it's Friday.

It's going to be a long weekend....my OH has fallen out of the back of his truck and has lots of bumps and bruises. No need to work out this weekend, running around after him will be all it needs

Down 1.8lbs total is now 13.5lbs

"Day: 5 of P90X/P90X+ hybrid Legs & Back & Ab Ripper X"=Done! "only" 106 total pull ups...but they were ALL good ones.

Good Morning Cool Kids. Happy Friday.

I'm working tonight, so a short day in the garden. I went out early and turned on the water. I need to put in post and stakes to tie up the tomatoes. A wind storm the other night knocked a few down. Also need to pick the cucumbers. That is going to be an everyday chore from now until they play out.

Jackie, nice loss.

Natalie, I looked back in my recipe box to find the amount of Lite Cool Whip. It's 8 oz for two small yogurts. Something that I didn't even remember was that I used to put it in pie shells. Trying to save calories, I went to graham crack crumbs, then to leaving them out all together. I leave them in the freezer. When I do another one, I'm going to weight it so I can be more exact with my serving size. It's hard to cut even pieces with it frozen.

8 oz Kraft Lite Cool Whip
2 container, Yoplait Lite Yogurt
1 container Sugar Free Gelatin Dessert
2 fl oz, Water -

I also do a dessert with sugar free pudding and pie filling using plain greek yogurt and a little milk and cool whip. I'll try to find it and post the recipe for you. Although I did it different about every time I made it.

Here are a couple of river pictures. Cousin with small large mouth bass, and one of my favorite stretches of river.




Here are the numbers for the week: A loss of 1.1 pounds for the week.
20.5% Body Fat
23.7 BMI
169.4 Pounds

Hope everyone has a good weekend,

Larro

Happy Friday Cool Kids!
Great loss Jackie!
Beautiful river pics Larro.
Thanks KS, I look forward to your TGIF pics!
I'm in a rush this morning, so my apologies for not being able to speak to each of you, but know that I think you all rock!

Had a good peddle in. Good thing since I went crazy with tortillas last night. Way over my cals

Teaching an ocean wild harvesting class Sunday. B is out setting crab pots right now. Tomorrow I'll gather a bunch of different sea weeds for show & tell & try to catch some fish. We'll actually make kelp pickles, sea-weed assisted pudding, and cioppino with fresh caught fish & mussels on the beach Sunday. It should be really fun. I wish it was warmer though. It might get to 60, but will be breezy, so kinda chilly.

Gotta get back to the grind. I'll strive to check in over the weekend since I'm on a "streak"! I usually drop off, but now I'm up to double-digit days!

Have a super healthy and fun weekend everyone. :flowerforyou:

thanks for the info Larro, I will be making that over the weekend. I don't bake much anymore because it seems that I like whatever I make the most so I don't usually want the temptation.
I had my daughter help me for (supposed to be a couple minutes) putting something up high, then I said pull this and that down. Next thing you know total closet clean out. It really needed it, need to go through my husband's stuff still. So, I ended up going through clothes all afternoon and never got to the sewing room, but glad for what I got accomplished. Tons of clothes to go to Goodwill and a consignment shop for some of it. Hope you all have a very nice long weekend.

Aaahhhh, Memorial Day Weekend finally here, picture of hanging out in my backyard and the beautiful sky tonight!!!!

"Day: 6 of P90X/P90X+ hybrid Kenpo X"=Done!

Have a great weekend for those with a long weekend!

Hit up kettlebell and Kickboxing this morning. Determined to get my shoulder better so I avoided almost all over head presses of any kind and the few I did I just used the 8 kilo bel with my right.

Hanging at the park with the kids and then it's chore time.
