  • Heather- If you come to NYC in October, maybe any MFP friends who could could meet up for a quick get together. I don't know what your plans or time-frame would be, but would love to meet you in person. I am about 5 hours away, but my son lives in Manhattan and we try to get down to see him frequently. With enough notice I…
  • Robin- The babies are so cute!! Glad all is going so well for you! Need to grade and write lesson plans. Will try to get back tomorrow with more comments. I am struggling with both food and exercise right now. Work is incredibly busy and can't shut my brain down to sleep. Lack of sleep makes my brain fuzzy- not good when…
  • Swampsagone= Welcome to the most supportive group ever! I love your attitude and willingness to go for what you want! Three years ago my DH and I decided to try kayaking for the first time. My family thought I was crazy when I bought a kayak. They were sure I wouldn't be able to do it and the kayak would never be used. We…
  • CritterSue- I am so sorry for your loss. We have lost several german shepherds over the years and each loss was incredibly painful. We think of them often and laugh at their antics. Each added so much to our lives in different ways. We now have a golden retriever who is getting old and slowing down. Take care of yourself.…
  • Joyce- So sorry for all you have had to deal with. You have been so supportive for all of your family members. Be sure to take some time for yourself. You are a very kind and strong women. Sandy- I am sorry that all of that came up just as you are trying to celebrate your birthday. I hope your birthday dinner went well and…
  • Good morning ladies! Just a quick pop in to wish all a healthy and productive day. We have family from out of state visiting for a burial service for my SIL. It is great to see everyone and to celebrate her life. I need to get going so I can fit in some school work on the computer before starting the day. I have a few…
  • grandmallie= I am with you on the crazy sleep problems! I have been up for hours-just can"t sleep. I do this way too often. It makes working with teens a little more challenging than I would like! Going to try once more to catch 2 hours before the alarm goes off. Let me know if you find any solutions. I have been dealing…
  • jackiebertram- Thank you! I am still struggling to lose the last bit of weight and build more muscle. I was getting frustrated at lack of progress over the last few months, but have come to terms with it. There will be times that I won't progress as steadily, but I will get there! Your post made me stop to think about how…
  • Robin- I love your picture with your dog! He looks like he really adores you! I am still up at 1:50 am because I made some BAD food choices today that my stomach has not forgiven me for.:sick: :sick: I know better, but once and a while still make the wrong decisions about food. I will do better tomorrow! My sister is in…
  • Joyce- Glad everything went well. Cheryl- I am so sorry that your son was treated that way. I hope they find the person who is responsible and prosecute him to the fullest. My prayers are with your family and all you have been dealing with. Deb A in CNY
  • Good morning ladies!! I have already been out for my walk. Was trying for 4 miles, but got stopped twice by neighbors who wanted to chat. This is very unusual as I live on a dead end road in the country and rarely see the neighbors! I got in just under 4 miles at a good brisk pace. Still need to do the weights and abs, but…
  • Today was another great kayaking day. This time we paddled Blue Mountain Lake in the Adirondacks. We were on the water from 11:15 until 2:45 with about a half hour break for lunch. The water was as smooth as glass. A beautiful paddle with mountains as a backdrop. Afterwards we stopped for dinner as a group. A day filled…
  • Liz, I am so sorry to hear about your sister. You were so good to her by being with her throughout her illness. I can't imagine how difficult this has been for you, but I am sure you gave her so much comfort by being there. My prayers are with you and your family. Take care of yourself. Deb A in CNY
  • Monday- Instead of my usual weight training, I moved my classroom. Lifted many boxes and over 400 textbooks! I am counting this as my weight training session. It lasted for 5 hours. Friday- NROLRW workout #4 I love this because it is keeping me accountable and getting me back into working with weights. I really like doing…
  • Just got caught up on all of the posts. My sister and I just returned from a trip to Ohio to take my niece to college. It was great to be able to see where she will be and to help her settle in. Very emotional as well! Eating wasn't the best, no real exercise, and very little sleep. Oh, well. I will just start over…
  • laurade- I have been where you are right now.I was a yoyo dieter but each time I regained the weight, a few more pounds would join in. I felt that there was nothing I could do to keep the weight off, but I did get rid of the weight and will keep it off because I don't think of this as a diet but rather as a journey to a…
  • 3rd workout with weights- (I am using workout from New Rules of Lifting for Women) Also did Standing abs routine, c25k week 1 day 2, and finished out walking a total distance of 5k Deb A in CNY
  • Did my strength training for today including the standing abs workout. I have used the step in the gym, but this is the first time I tried it with weights. Adds a whole new dimension! Feels good!! I also completed week one day one of couch25k. I finished it out with 40 more minutes of walking. (I usually try to walk for…
  • yanniejanie- Hope there is a quick fix and no damage! When my DH retired, he promised me he would get another job and continue working until I am able to retire. He was not happy for a long time while he was looking for something to do. He did get a job working full time at a job he loved until the government cut funding.…
  • Good morning ladies!! It is a beautiful day again here. Barbie- I get up quite early as well. I love the peace and quiet at that time of day. Cindy- Very resourceful!! Glad you were successful and safe! yanniejannie- ouch from the shoes!! Hope you feet feel better fast! Liz- Hope your sister is having a good day. I know…

  • janemartin- great job on the steps!! It is so good to read your posts again. We CAN do it! janie- Good luck with the job hunt. We just interviewed for a math position.

  • Sandy- My fitbit registers a lot of flights of stairs from the hills I walk. That may be what is happening with yours. Katla- My DH and I ended up with kayaks a few years ago because we wanted to get into boating but could afford to buy either a power boat or a sailboat. In the end, I am glad we went this route as we are…

Copy and paste that code to the post where you want the pic. Delete up to [IMG and then change the IMG at BOTH the beginning and end to img. I hope…
