    I hope you are including yourself in that great bunch of seniors. You are one of the best!! I miss Ms. Gayla, don't you?
    what to eat, eh? well, for sure, there will be an egg in my breakfast. I don't cook much for breakfast when we are home.. so a ham and egg croissant maybe.. or just eggs. and of course, a quart of coffee!! I drink less of it at home too, but not much less.
    I'm going to shut down the pc in a few and we will go to get our load after breakfast. It is another pretty day here, already 69.
    Here's hoping all of you who must get out today will be very careful.. so many slippery places, even if it isn't cold in your area.
    take care, have a great Thursday,

    Calie!

    I would recommend stretching and balance moves today. Try standing on one leg and balancing there for as long as you can. A very good goal would be 20 seconds, then do the other leg.

    Ankle: Use a chair for support. Stand on one leg, support yourself with the chair if you need too. Rotate the elevated ankle in a clockwise rotation 6 times then reverse the rotation. Be sure to "point" the toes while you are doing this.

    Calves: Stand up straight. Raise up on your tip toes repeat until you "feel" it. Support yourself if you need too. Do this with your feet about 9" apart and parallel. Later do it with you ankles turned out and then with you ankles turned in.

    And do some arm crosses. Good for the shoulders. Swing your arms across the front of your body. Right over left then left over right. Do for 45 seconds.

    Then do "swimmers: Rotate the right arm in a big circle forward from the shoulder like you are swimming and then do the left. Do these forward and back.

    I really like the balance stuff for the legs. Good real life stuff!

    Have a great day everyone!

    Good Morning All,

    I just added my ticker to my signature. I'm only down 3 lbs. in almost 2 weeks' time.....is that slow or what?? I try hard to not get discouraged but some days are harder than others. "Chatting" with all of you is definitely a "plus". Have a great day everyone and stay warm.....

    Hello, You are doing just fine. 1 to 2 lbs a week is all they want you to lose. I would take a lb. a week anytime. Keep up the good work. And have a happy day:bigsmile:

    Hi everyone, Will I need some ideas on what to eat before I go walk. I will walk for an hour in the morning and it will be about 5:30 AM. I don't want to cook cause that will take to long but I need something that will help keep my blood sugar from dropping. Maybe some peanut butter and toast? :frown:

    :embarassed: So sorry I got lost for awhile but I am back:bigsmile:
    I have been concentrating on my DH and his bloodsugar and that monkey has turned around lost enough weight in a couple of weeks to lower his blood sugar below 100 and I am still struggleing. However I notice I have lost 3 pounds so at a pound a week and that ain't bad! My DH does not want his picture on here so "I cropped him out" I am catching up on all the topics I have missed the last 2 weeks and will be here again evry day.

    We had a little cold weather last November and than it warmed up big time for us in the 60's and 70's but like everyone else we are gettin a blast of winter right now. It will be in the 30's today and the teens tonight. One thing know here it will warm up so it is not a big deal. We will bundle up and take an hour walk today. Have to get that in.:flowerforyou:
