  • Okay, you have probably been able to tell by my lack of posts that I have been very busy this week, but I have been lurking when I catch a few minutes. Today while I was swimming (and might I add that I achieved my goal for the month there today - 1/3 of mile, half crawl and half breaststroke, in 35 minutes! Took me a year…

  • My haircut got canceled today - bad news because it is driving me nuts and looks bad, but good news because it gave me time to get to the swimming pool!

  • OK, new recipe of the day. We have declared it a keeper. http://www.tasteofhome.com/recipes/Chicken-Spareribs I didn't use the oil, just put everything in the oven. I cup the sugar a little bit, and next time will cut way back on the soy sauce. Anyway, it was quite good. Happy Monday all!

  • Which new recipe do you want me to share? You know I am a recipe addict. I think that I have five or six new ones on my menu this week! :wink: My son in law liked the one from tonight - I put pork chops in the crock pot, cut up some turkey pepperoni on top of it, poured on a jar of spaghetti sauce, and cooked. Served over…

  • So, we begin a new month. Time to relect on where I am on my journey. This is what I posted at the beginning of the month: January goals? Lose 5 pounds (maybe it will take this time), and continue to exercise. So, technically, according to my ticker, I didn't lose any. However, I did gain a little over 5 pounds over the…

  • So I didn't tell you guys the funniest part of my morning workout. Since it snowed, I didn't put my dog outside, and she watched me workout for the first time. She added to the experience, but not necessarily in a helpful way. For the first ten minutes, she just tried to get me to play with her, as she saw no other reason…

  • Off to a good start today, did my Wii fit, getting ready to make ham and beans for supper and some homemade granola bars. It snowed enough here that I got my wish – no school today, so I will be able to spend at least part of the day in the sewing room! Happy Kansas Day to anyone else who has Kansas roots, Happy Friday to…

I have stayed under my calories daily, and I've been swimming regularly, and gradually increasing the intensity of that. For anyone who sees my statuses, and saw today that I have not logged in…

  • Put in .72 servings. (140/195) Hope that helps. I spend the day at work helping high school students with math.
    in I can't work out the calories Comment by msh0530 January 2010
  • I think if you give it a little longer, you will see results. I stayed under my calories and exercised when I started, and the first week I GAINED 3 pounds, which took two more weeks to lose, but look at my ticker now. Hang in there, and it will happen. Some bodies just don't respond as quickly as others.
