We have a few more training shifts then we are on our own.It will be a challenge for a while. My little world is doing okay and I am doing okay with my foods, should be a…

Hello ladies, I am needing to appologise for not being here every day. I have been getting sore and swelling, the work at Tim's is very hard on me in that respect so as to avoid another visit to the hospital I laid on my back for a few days reading to give me some rest and reduce the swelling. I have lost some drive to get…

Hello ladies, I must appologise for not being here every day. I have been laying on my bed or couch with a book to get my back rested. Tim's is very hard on me in that respect, thus, to save myself from a revisit to the hospital I did the best thing for me. My diet and exercise has blown away in the wind somewhere, but I'm…

Hello ladies, another warm sunny day, nice! Hope all is well here, not much going on my end but work. I will catch you ladies some time again in the week, this is a busy week so I have little time at home. Keep strong!! Marilyn

Hello ladies, back from job #2, warm day, nice to have for a change. Laid on my back all day Saturday to give it a rest, read a QuickBooks 2010 manual, seems like a good program to have, except I don't need the business end of it. Sunday I picked up Cash manager, by quick books, seems more of what I need and can use. So I…

Hello ladies, Just a quickie home from work and the body is not feeling well, time for bed. Hope all is well here, catch all you maybe tomorrow night or on the weekend. Marilyn

Hello ladies, got a bit of a problem happening now, my blood sugar is diving I'm so low. Trying to eat better and a bit more better stuff, but I'm so tired, I always say I'll make my lunch in the morning. When I do, I pack less because I am not hungrary nor feeling any headache, and I am afraid to eat more because it is…

Hello ladies, Just a quickie, rain here again today. The weekend was wonderful, moved my eldest sister to a new home, and the next day cleaned out the garage. I was hoping to do some reading on planting roses, I am very good with dandylions. I have one from the girls at the Civic, and it must be put in the ground,…

Hello ladies, MADDY, My thoughts of hope and strength for you, sometimes the worst hits after the fact. Hold your ground and breathe. Elli, thanks, yes, right now it is one step at a time, hoping I can learn to keep going and not so many slips back. GOT MY NEW JOB:drinker: :drinker: :drinker: Now the fun of organizing…

Hello ladies, been cleaning out the garage, wow, did not know how much stuff it could hold, almost eight hours at it! Feeling better, these days, hoping I will hear from my newest job sometime this week, then I can say goodbye to one of the others. Looking forward to having more time for me. Hope all is well here, zoomed…

Hello Ladies, Just out of the shower, feels so good. Long day cleaning up the garage, all the oils and cleaners etc., my son bought years ago are going to the recycle centre. Tires from the truck and other vehicles, will go when I put my summer tires on the truck. Beautiful day to get it all done. Elli, yes, I'm okay, and…

Hello ladies Back from another day of caos,(work). feeling a little truer to myself, my body is getting better at standing for the eight hours, and the eleven hours cause a little soreness but I can handle it better. May be by the end of the month I will be able to stay in the gym. I don't like being too tired before I get…

Hello ladies, Just a check in, hope all is well here. I am running a bit between the two jobs, so I will catch up sometime. Diet is strong and I am hoping that weigh in on Sunday is a good one. I am so wanting to be down to my ideal again. Take care all, and remember to be true to yourself. Marilyn

Goodmorning ladies, Dark day here, tomorrow will be too so the weather station says. Winter is not giving up, or is it an early fall? Everyone is catching colds, I am surrounded by them. This morning I sneezed three times and my head just filled up. Not much I can do until it breaks. I have dayquill and nightquill handy.…

Hello ladies, Just a note; survived yesterday, nasty stuff! Up at 4am this morning, storming like a wild party, not had one like that in a very long time. Recorded my diet as it currently stands, will do this only once since it will not change for a time. You will note that the calories are down but the nutrients are up,…

Hello ladies, Up at 4am again today, storms, lightening was like a strobe light, never quit for a hour or so. Rain just poured down like it was coming from a pitcher. I didn't like the sound of it, got up, weighted in, walked to the hall and poof, the lights went out. Got downstairs well enough through the traffic of five…

Hello ladies, just marking my spot. Had a good day yesterday, aiming for another today. Sun is shining now, crossing my fingers it will continue until after supper before it rains. Moving my sister today so I will be posting tomorrow. Have a great day everyone! Marilyn

Hello ladies, Just a quickie, spent 8 hours yesterday scrubbing my truck from the winter oil spray, and getting the inside cleaned up. Had a good day ate a bowl of beef stew that was not supposed to be on the menu, but no snacks yesterday so I'm hoping for that I faired out even. Off to Smith Falls today to help my sister…

Hello ladies, Sorry I have been absent, been busy with doc. appointments after work, legs, feet and back are sore, have not been up to do much. My son e-mailed me and gave me a diet plan and a bit of advice on getting my (mbr) fed. Unfortunatley I have not been eating enough to feed my body, thus I have not lost any…

Hello ladies, Sorry I have been busy with appointments after work, my legs, knees and feet have been so sore I have not been up to do much. My son e-mailed me today and said that A), I was not eating enough to feed my metabolic rate (bmr), it sits at 1600, I have a formula that all of you ladies can do to see if you are…

Hello ladies, good to see everyone hard at it. Mother's Day? Was it today? Anyhoo, Happy Mothers Day ladies, sending best wishes for a great healthy day <<overseas>>. Had a great day in the gym today and just now had a sad read on my comp from my son. He told me to stop the crunches and back flexing exercises. I could…

Hello ladies, had a great workout today, body felt light and mobile first in months. I was so happy until I got my son's email this evening, he said to stop the crunches and anything that flexes the back. I could paralyse myself. Good grief! Yes he knows what he is talking about. So he is going to help me find better foods…

Hello ladies, just a quickie, LYNN, not sure what it is with my legs, they are a odd couple to say the least. Family history shows leg problems. I'm hoping as the only one member of this clan, that the gym will erase some of the family history woes. Found out a few days ago that restless leg syndrom has not been totally…

Hello sneakers, just a quick jot. Been busy cleaning out the dustbunnies, put a few florals together to brighten up the house, artificial flowers,because the cats eat the real ones. Tidied up the gym so it is ready for tomorrows visit. IRENE, you visit when you feel you can, <<<<hopes the new meds do the trick>>>>> :heart:…

Hello ladies, thanks Connie for getting this started. Hope all is well here, I am exhausted, exercises done again today, and diet too. Hope tomorrow is nice, got lots to do. I'll catch you ladies again as soon as I get time. Good night Marilyn

Hello ladies, and welcome to our newest ones! Did not sleep well last night, knees kept aching and legs were restless. Got out of bed earlier so I would not fall back to sleep, long day, did my exercises and now after my second job I am done for the day. Muscles are aching, body is ready to dive fourty feet into the bed.…

Hello ladies, Just tracked my diet on the tracker, forgot to weigh myself this morning.:ohwell: NATALIE, Body Building .com, there you will find a truck load of information on exercise, diet, and if you wish to get started on the opening page you should find a link to "find a plan" you will have the complete essentials…

Hello Ladies, welcome to you new ladies, yes you are in the right spot. Just a quickie today, I did a large discussion piece on the sneakers page if anyone wishes to take a peek. Had a back spasm last night, so today is a day for some slow exercises to get the abs working again. By the way, the physio doc. said that after…

Hello ladies, hope all is well here, AMANDA, best of luck and speedy recovery!! NATALIE, I have a papillon too, and she has thrown her back out twice now, too fast of a runner for the floors in the house. What has your dog going to therapy? I am a bigger fan of larger dogs, however Buttons' has a huge personality that…

Hello ladies, good day today; walked to the hospital for my physio and home again. My abs are the culprits creating all the havoc in my back, so the doc said. But with two new exercises I am to do, I can resume my normal routine with some cautions. I'll be at the gym in the morning!!!:drinker::drinker: :drinker: Cooking…
