    Ha, versi!! You brought yours to MFP!!!!! Lol. Keep em outa fun and games...haha!!!

    @rsimons0133. My opinion? And just that. It is all self motivation. The MFP family is great, and supportive and a very cool thing, but at the end of it all, the only one that will actually make you work out or stay on schedule is you. You have to do it for yourself and love yourself in doing it. Have a great time with it. Make it fun!! Make it rewarding for accomplishing goals. We will give you all the support and love but you are the one dragging your *kitten* to workout, and you are the one that knows how accurate that tracking.

    Now look, you went and made me all preachy!!!! Haha!! Have an awesome Thursday!!!!

    Second time this week all four Wattbikes (fairly sophisticated indoor bike trainers) at my gym have been in use by people like me in their 50's not just exercising but training seriously - I find that quite inspiring.

    Just a shame I was the 4th one to get there and there were only three cooling fans so I got a workout and a sauna all in one go.

    Happy Thursday all. Bitter cold here and I can't warm up. I did hear that one can burn 100 calories during 15 minutes of shivering. If that were the case, I would be wasting away. :p:D

    Happy Friday!!! What does everyone have planned for the weekend? Something fun I hope. My boys are (probably) going to their dad for the weekend and I am going up to my aunt so we can plant some flowers around my uncles grave. And check on the beehives
