Hi everyone ... I've been MIA lately ... really slacking in my efforts. I apologize for this because I love the support and encouragement I get from these posts and I want to do the same for all of you. Well today's a new beginning for me ... I did it ... I JOINED A GYM!!! I go for my first assessment on Sunday ... I can't go tomorrow because I have tickets to a show ... but Saturday morning I'm joining in on a Zumba class. I can't wait. I've done Zumba to a DVD and I loved it but I can't wait to be in a live class ... it should be soooo much fun!!!

Excellent Maggie!!!
I enjoy the gym, need people to talk me through the 'hard' part of the workout-usually the middle 25 minutes!!! I wonder if that's why some people get trainers...hmmm
I hope you enjoy it, should get your metabolism going too!!
What is Zumba??
lisa0 -
Zumba is a workout class that uses Latin music and dance moves. Burns big calories and is way high energy and fun.

Thats great Maggie! I'm glad you found something that you will enjoy doing to keep you active. I have to find something too, I like to watch Fit TV, they have some great workout videos there, but I can't seem to find the time to do it. During the week, by the time I am done with work, eat dinner and then do the whole routine with my daughter it is usually 8:30pm and by that time I am exhausted. I will have to think of something to atleast get excercise in 3 days a week. If I don't I know its going to take me a lot longer to loose the extra weight.

Happy Friday all! :flowerforyou: How is everyone doing today? Doing okay here. Its sunny and 66 here in Louisville. Not bad for the middle of November. Nice day to get the kids out of the house and go for a walk. Hope everyone has a great weekend.0
-
Wow, I wish it was that warm here. But they are saying that its supposed to get up to the mid 60's here on sunday. I will probably go to a farm or to a park with my daughter on sunday since its supposed to be so nice.
Hope everyone has a good weekend.
-Tanya0 -
I would love some nice warm weather too ... but around here ... it's cool but at least it's sunny :happy:
I'm so glad today is over ... this weekend should be fun. I'm going to see a show tonight at the Fallsview Casino, then a Zumba class to look forward to tomorrow morning, and then my assessment on Sunday at the gym. I can't wait to have my new gym routine incorporated into my life's schedule. Woo Hoo!!! I hope you all have a wonderful weekend.0 -
I have some good news Ladies!
I just weighed myself this morning and I met my first goal. I weight 135 right now. I can't believe it and I want to loose some more weight still so I recalculated to loose 10 more pounds.
I'm already having a great weekend, hope you guys are having a great weekend too.
-Tanya0 -
Tanya ... Yay ... 135 lbs goal met ... Yay ... Congratulations!!!
I was just reading about Thanksgiving and all the plans and meals and stuff and it makes me glad that I'm Canadian ... ours is over and done with so that temptation is gone for me. Good luck to all my American MFPers with that.
I just got back from the gym ... I love it there ... such a great atmosphere and all of the staff seem great so far. I did a Zumba class ... it was way fun. Tomorrow is my first assessment and then I'll get set up to learn how to use the equipment and balance ball and stuff. It's nice to have something new to get me back on track (although the Cora's breakfast after the workout wasn't exactly the healthiest choice ... but ... yummy). The weather here is beautiful and hopefully it will be the same tomorrow ... my friend and I will do a big hike after I'm done at my assessment if all goes as planned. Happy weekend all ... talk to you soon.

Hi there everyone ... I hope we're all doing okay. Here's to a great week!!!

Just finished my first round of delivering mail at work and I'm taking a little break. Thought I'd jump in here and give a quick update. I had my assessment done at the gym yesterday and all in all it wasn't too bad. No real surprises ... I need to work on my upper body strength but overall I'm of average fitness ... not too shabby ... thought I was in the less then average fitness level :happy: I did get one surprise yesterday that made me love my trainer ... all my life I haven't been able to do a sit up. She told me it's because of my apple body shape ... she had me lie down with my knees up and I tried to do the sit up but it just wasn't happening ... then she handed me a 10 lb. ball to hold in my hands over my head and told me to try again. I thought she was crazy, if I can't do it with no weight in my hands how can I do it with 10 extra pounds??? Well it's all in the momentum ... my torso was too heavy compared to my arms and once I added extra weight to my arms the sit ups happened ... I was so excited I did 10 of them with ease!!!! Why didn't anyone show me this before? Autumn (my trainer) said it's because she's the best trainer in the world ... frankly ... I agree. This picture shows what I did except I had my feet on the floor.

Wow! Congrats to you Tanya. :flowerforyou: 135 is my goal. I can't wait till I get that moment on the scale.0 -
I am happy I finally reached my first goal, but now my weight keeps fluctuating. Today, I weighted myself and I weight 137. Oh well. Maggie, I'm glad that your assessment at the gym went well and I am also glad to hear that you like your gym. Thats important and having a good trainer is also a benefit. I have to start excercising too. I keep saying it but I have to actually do it. Not today though, I am feeling a little under the weather, I am sick right now with a cold.
Talk soon,
Tanya0 -
Thanks for the info on Zumba maggie, sounds like so much fun...
Love that you have a trainer, do you have get a 'specialized' workout once the assessment is done {ie tailored to your body characteristics} Right now I find I am doing a machine then some stretches I learned form a Pilates tape, I am liking the sounds of a more personalized workout...
Tanya 135 Such excellent numbers!!! I find that my weight fluctuates daily, time of month, humidity, whether or not I ate a bag of chips{!!!!} I try to weigh myself in the morning, same time, to stop the flux...
I am with Rdy2lose128, cant wait for the scales to hit my goal number...gotta keep that in mind
Take care all, talk soon
lisa0 -
Tanya ... that scale can be a real bugger for jumping around within a few pounds ... I've been 173 to 176 for what seems like forever. You're not alone there. We just have to focus on the big picture ... compared to when we started ... WE ARE DOING AWESOME!!
Lisa ... Actually, I get a few sessions with the trainer with the gym membership and that will be fun ... once I get the guts to actually work with her. I'm going for an appointment with her tomorrow for a familiarization session to learn the machines and stuff and I believe she will set up a routine for me at that time. The schedule was changed at the gym so I didn't get to do a Step Class last night ... but I did do my very first Pilates class and it really confirmed my lack of abdominal strength ... it didn't burn too many calories like Zumba did ... but it sure is great for streatching. That's one thing I lacked with all my hiking ... I didn't take much time for stretching so the Pilates class felt so good for that. Tonight I'll do Aquafit ... I haven't done that in years ... my bathing suit and I will just have to become friends for the cause ... LOL0 -
Just wanted to drop in and say Hello.....Hello:happy: still sticking to the plan and found a couple of other groups on here but miss you guys. Just not ready to be what I feel everyone needs from me so I will keep this short and just say way to go all you all sound like your doing great things keep it up!0
