Hello ladies; BEV, hello and welcome. Setting goals can be tough enough, I can relate to that. No worries though, just be determined to lose what you need. BE TRUE TO YOURSELF, is my wonder motto, if we lie on the boards, or cheat in the food department or skip out on the exercise, we LIE TO OURSELVES TOO. :noway: So then…

Hello ladies, welcome to August, start getting the closets organized for fall!, Been doing okay, just a bit quiet on the social net.

Hello ladies, not sure if this is still in effect, we are August 1 today, just a quickie to note I am still around and doing okay, will get back once August page is up.

Hello ladies... Just checking in. Been trying to keep the foods undercontrol, and found out once I did a cupboard and freezer nutrition value check, that some of the favorite foods have been working against my efforts. So now I will cut those portions in half and have twice the amount to enjoy! Day off today and I am…

Hello ladies; IRENE, good to see you are doing well, been thinking of you. Yes eat good things in the right amount and your body will do much better.

Good morning ladies, just checking in before I attempt some house work. Back is getting better or at least under the influence of tylonal it seems like it is.

Good morning ladies, Just a quickie, time for the gym. Did a bit of overeating yesterday, I think it is the weather, dull, damp and cooler than I like it. I'll calculate the calories in a bit, have today's to log in. I'm doing this on my daily calendar, find it easier, quicker and I can go back as far as needed to find a…

Hello ladies, SANDY, BECKY, :laugh: :laugh: Too funny Sandy! I'm in Ontario, Canada, City of Pembroke. Ministry of Labour. Did a little walk today to see if it would be better. It would have been good, however Buttons suffers with a bit of asthma, so I did not go far. Next time the weather is bad in humidity I'll leave her…

Good morning Sneakers! SANDY, No I don't have a job with the Ministry, however I am a representative for Tim's. I work with various Government outlets to keep updated and receive information that is related to my area. It was just a instance that I see on a regular basis at home and work, that is a constant reminder to…

Good morning sneakers, just putting in time before hitting the gym. Looks like a sunny day today, better close up the drapes to keep things cool. Rough sleep last night, felt as though an ever ending hot flash. Banged up my ankle badly at work, it keeps reminding me about it. I was at my site at BodyBuilding this morning…

Good morning sneakers!:drinker: Had a great exercise session yesterday, when I finished I could feel the strength in my back and abs clearly. Looks like I'm on the mend, with time I should be back to the closest normal I can be. Body is starting to respond, but it will take some time to get the metabolism going at a good…

Good morning ladies, just a quickie. Taking a break from walking today, yesterday on the way home I thought I would not make it, my legs and feet were hurting bad. Took a good half hour for the throbbing in the feet to stop, once I got home and into my recliner. Heading down for my exercises now, so take care everyone and…

Hello ladies, I'm sleepy, had a late night out with the girls, lots of drinking and boisterous fun! I had a fish and chip dinner and a pitcher of water, not too bad, but it is the first time that the "favorite dinner" did not please my palet. Not sure why. I'm thinking a tuna sandwich would have been better. Not like me to…

Hello ladies, another hot day in the week. Hope the weekend stays dry, at least during the day. Getting on with exercising, and seeing some strength in my abdomen especially when I walk and sit. Not working too hard, but that is okay, especially right now. Was out with the girls last night celebrated our managers…

Hi ladies, having a summer week, working only two days (so far). Good enough though; doing my exercises and feeling them work.

Hello ladies, just a quickie, how are you all doing?? I am working not so hard these days, and against my will, I am not going to work harder than I need to, just for the summer.

Hello ladies, how are all of you doing? I am in good spirits, working not so hard. going to be an interesting summer. Spring started some nasty allergy vibes and my dog has a bad case of it. She has swollen tonsils, and can hardly breathe. A trip to the vet and two orders of pills later, she may get through this summer…

Hello ladies, just done a shift, my body is hurting. Started excising again now I have calmed down a bit. Sure hurts when starting from scratch again. Almost lost my back again getting into the fridge at work, way down there, the company's should stop putting freezers in them and just make a higher fridge. Must have made…

Hello ladies, just a quick note, 4000 steps for Sunday, pedometer slipped off somewhere so steps missed, oh well. New job is a challenge but it will be okay once I am organized.
