Hi Ladies. I’m in between classes right now, so I took an after lunch walk outside. It’s around 90 and after 20 minutes, it got hot! I went outside because of the hills thinking I’d burn a few more calories that way! I am well on my way to 8000 steps right now.
SSC: Blessings and prayers for the families of the slain officers. Having just had an officer killed here a couple of weeks ago I know how traumatic that is for the whole community. Good news on the cardiac rehab visit
Janet: sounds like you are really doing well!
Kim: I feel like I am missing so much of everyone’s lives when I can’t stay caught up.
Joyce: you’re so sweet
Alison: is listada an eggplant?
Rosie: congrats on the upcoming graduation…it feels good to launch them, doesn’t it?
DrKatie: I have to say you cracked me up. I was reading what you said about cleaning floors and I’m thinking “did I comment about cleaning?” and “did I comment about getting new floors and keeping them clean?” DUH! Thanks for the analogy!!!
Wait…what’s wrong with Alfred dunner I ask as I look at the tag on my shirt….
Lisa: good luck on your book signing! Did you float away in the recent floods?
GRIT: 5.5 months is a good time to get the benefit from hospice services. My mom lived for 3 days on hospice and dad was on it for 2 whole hours. Worst hospice referral ever!
Jules: good job on the elliptical
Lillian: what great progress!
Sylvia: I was just so proud of myself when you mentioned that I was hotter than you…..then I read the rest of your sentence! ::O I’m having reading trouble today! I’m going to have to borrow your broomstick *(they did not issue me one)
Terri” I have heard that walking backwards on the treadmill is a great exercise
Katla: I didn’t realize you were in a drought. I always think of Washington and Oregon as being so rainy!
Sharon: welcome!
Ydaily: we have a shop here where they custom make bras! I’ve never been but I want to
Mary MN: so sorry about Apple Jack!
Carol: today is my long day too…8-7 p.m. bleh!
Margaret: yes I am feeling better now! Thanks
Jane: hope you are feeling up to par again soon
Sue: OMG you reminded me of those panties and I just about spit out my water! That was funny.
Who on earth was too tired to go downstairs for ice cream? That is not a problem I will ever have. Who ever it was needs to borrow Sylvia’s broomstick!
Well ladies, it’s nearly time to go teach til 7. I want to thank all of you for your positive support and your friendship. I really don’t know what I’d do without you all. Take care, Meg from steamy Omaha

Quick hello to everyone. Sunny, hot, humid. Gym this am, grocery store. Have mtg. At six for police group I volunteer with, tried to make a little something with puff pastry......decided I hate puff pastry. Ended up just brushing a sheet with melted butter, sprinkled with brown sugar and cinnamon, sliced in strips, twisted and baked. Will take with, those guys are not picky but had hopes for a better offering.
This has to be quick so I am going to miss a lot of what I wanted to say.
Meg.......NO, just NO. I do not know how ANY of you who work full time make it here but I am grateful that you do!
Carey.....so sorry to hear about the death of your officer and the entire incident, awful beyond words! Hugs!
Mary......condolences about your Applejack, sounds like he was well loved! Beautiful pic.
MnMargaret.....laughed until I cried! Thanks so much.
Sylvia.......I am sorry your son is having soooo much trouble medically. How horrific to not have oxygen avail. When needed. Hugs to all of you.
Katla....wanted to say I thought you gave good advice to someone but can not remember who or what it was......arrrrrrghhhh, anyway kudos for something.
Trying to write a appeal thingy for one of the volunteer groups I am involved in, one of those go fund me things......driving me crazy and I bet we will not be allowed to post it anyway, not sure how I ended up with the job anyway.
And I am on th iPad as the pc has decided to not let me on, hateful beast.
Yanniejannie..flustered and frustrated...this too shall pass

I lost 125# total. You're right it's not easy, but my weight just rolled off. I couldn't keep up with it. But I am thrilled and feel so much better. I have been able to get off of meds for Type II diabetes, high blood pressure and high cholesterol. I had a right knee replacement just over 4 months ago. I breezed thru it, I'll have the left knee replaced in September. None of this would have happened 125# ago. I WILL keep it off. Thanks for the encouragement. Hang in there, the rest of yours will come off. I did start adding more activity/exercise than I'd ever done before on a regular basis.
How did you manage to get that weight to roll off? I have a vision of if rolling down a hill!
Chris in MA
Lol sorry, it did rather sound like that. Janet in Myrtle Beach and I had posted that we both had gastric bypass surgery. She said she was struggling to lose the last of the weight to get to her goal.

I have found it so difficult to lose weight after 50. I'm trying to keep a positive attitude, and accept that a healthier lifestyle is more important than a number on a scale, and I hope this group will keep me on board with that!
Sharon
Welcome Sharon, glad you're on board. We're here when you need us. I'm new too and really enjoying it.

@ Meg from steamy Omaha - Janet: sounds like you are really doing well!
Not sure which Janet you were responding too, but I'll take all the encouragement I can get. Still pumped about it, still have not been hungry and have tried new recipes every day this week. My hubby (tall and skinny) has really liked them too. Luckily he's not a picky eater, that helps.0 -
Megblair1 - we changed the Hospice Care we had for our Mother - 1st one was not coming when they were supposed to and not doing the things they had said they'd do. ALF owner told sister what was happening; and they got 'fired' immediately. Referral to another was much better.0

Ok , after reading this board I can see that my exercise needs to go up!!! You ladies are all so active and weight lifting. I have been biking and walking and eating 1200 cals a day but in 40 days have lost 6 lbs. Im 59 and have been pretty sedate so any suggestions for a video thats easy on the knees?? How do you all feel about Leslies walk away with weights??
What a great group!! I book marked it.0 -
Good afternoon beautiful ladies :flowerforyou:
Mary So sorry to hear about AppleJack! What a beauty he was! Your daughter is beautiful as well!!
Cynthia My my, what a good little doggie sitting there soaking his paw ! I'm pretty sure Noel would never do that :noway:! Hope his paw is feeling better!!!
Margaret Love your post! I'll have to copy it and reread it when I think I'm having a bad day!
Meg I love reading your posts! I especially love the adventures of Benny!!! I still remember the time he got on the dining room table and ate the bread, the time he peed in the electrical outlets :laugh:! You should write a book about his adventures!
Carol/Peach Have a big salad with tons of veggies for dinner and maybe a little chicken on top, if you put dressing on very lightly you can probably stay around 200 calories!
Carol NC I hate those days where I feel like I'm an empty pit. I had one of those days recently, seemed I ate everything in sight, good thing I didn't have more at home to eat. Funny thing was, I was down a pound the next day :happy:!
Pip I would say you've had a busy day ! Hope the eyeball Dr. appt. went well.
I did not get my nap yesterday afternoon :grumble:. The guys showed up to to repair a paver in my driveway and Noel didn't like that at all :noway:! She is a barker, I swear she likes to hear herself talk! The paver guys are the same the ones that were here last summer, they call Noel "Little Boss" . The name suits her well....
Hope everyone is having a wonderful day and a wonderful evening! It is time to get off this iPad and take Little Boss for a walk!
Hugs,
DeeDee in gorgeous NC

just got back. it's 2:43pm and i haven't stopped from doing stuff. just brought floyd home from the groomers after the eyeball appointment. i'm half blind cuz of my eyes being dilated. squinted to pick up the boy, now i'm getting a headache from squinting. so i should get a new prescription in time for vegas and that's a good thing, now i gotta give bullwinkle a bath outside.
i'm kinda bummed that i didn't do over 1k burn today but my excuse is cuz i didn't go to work today so that means i didn't ride to work and ride home which would have brought me over that. i went to do the 5:15am class and she usually does 2 classes back to back and i was going to do them but i got up there and she had a sub that i don't care for (the style of class, not her). so i went downstairs and did the expresso bike (virtual trail stationary bike) and i did the hardest, longest one the had. i had done that before and when you have an account, it shows you your "ghost" of your previous ride. kinda gives u incentive to beat your last time. well from riding all week, my ghost rider kicked my a@# by 18minutes lmao!!!!! oh well at least i got 750 cal. in. my shirt and shorts were soaked. i had to put them thru the swim suit spinner to get the excess sweat off. i weighed myself and i was at 132 and at least 2 lbs of that was sweat. lololol

Well I think my DFIL said it best today as I was shoveling wheaties in his mouth this morning, He said stay away from my wheaties your fat enough already
God Love him he cracks me up sometimes... I take it all with a grain of salt.. but it is an eye opener .. 0 -
