Happy Friday to all. I just set my 5 goals for the month of January. I figured December is too far gone to set goals for it. But I can start on that walking goal for January now. I'm setting a low bar of 15 minutes walking either outdoors or on the treadmill depending on the weather. o:)

Good afternoon to all. I've got the decorations all up. I still need to finish cleaning out the craft room, but I'm down to all of the "tricky" items. You know, the ones that you don't know if you should keep or discard and if you keep it you don't know where to put it. Oh, my.... life can be so complicated!

I will do it

I am back to MFP after a 2 year absence. Lots of life events, husband sick/died, lost 28 lb myself due to stress and back surgery, have changed residences 3 times. I'm doing great right now & want to loose a few more pounds. MFP helped when I was here before, so I thought I would give it a try. This was a great group…

Thanks to you all for giving me just the lift I needed this morning. Happy Autumn to us all.

Thanks, I do enjoy the old music

Looks like a "tough" week for us lightweights. But I can do them without complaining, I think. Seriously, they look like good exercises to start off the month.

Thanks for showing us that it can be done. You've set a good example!

I'll take the left oar, you get the right. That way if I stop, you'll know right away, and can elbow me in the ribs.

If you want to lower sodium intake, be sure to look at the labels of the processed food you buy. I found (for instance) that the sliced turkey for sandwiches - the one marked less sodium actually had the same or more than other brands. Sometimes I buy the more expensive brand because of the sodium on the label.

Joe - I'd listen to your group anytime. When are you touring to Washington State? Thanks for the samples.

Jeanmrob: You are struggling like most of us. Your struggle may not be mine (but it is) but we all have things we struggle with. The major thing is to remember "Life is a journey not a destination" As we journey, we have close goals and long goals and sometimes we just rest and abide. Resting allows us to gather the energy…

Joe - just watched the video. How awsome. Love the video, love the music, esp the Bass player! A dream come true indeed. What's next????

Well Caligirl - I hearby promise to do my best to try and look at each and every exercise every day and think through the motions before I try to do each of the exercises. And I'm sure if I try hard enough and often enough throughout each day, I just might actually accomplish the deed. They are good looking exercises this…

Hey there - I'v managed to keep up and occasionally exceed this week.

I'll admit it, I'm a slacker this week. I promise to do better next week. And they were such good challenges.

Congratulations ! Joe. It must be wonderful to achieve the wt loss such that you can do something which the weight denied you. Guess it inspires me. Thanks and KUDOS!!!!!

July was a waiting month. We had planned to go out on the boat for a couple of weeks, but life got in the way of that. We are now on track to take the boat out on Puget Sound for a couple of weeks and I'm praying it works. I have already done the grocerie stocking up thing twice, and getting meds twice. I'm looking forward…

:drinker: Here's to feeling good physically and mentally!

Nice one, Joe

Kudos for your self control and discipline !persistence!

Chest Stretch done. All caught up.

Thanks Cali ! Biceps curls done with corn and beans. Ummmm.... does that make succatash???

Wooken3 - you made my day! Thanks for the Video!!

Congratulations Joe - that is an admirable achievement. Wooken3 - I agree. Bright sunny day here in Seattle area. I hope to walk the neighborhood and take pics of summer flowers.

My Hubby& I had the nicest 4th. We walked the 1/2 mile to the bus stop, hopped on the bus and ended up in Seattle Center. We watched the Naturalization Ceremony for 487 new citizens from 86 countries. The largest contingent was from the Philipines, some where around 57. They had great music, a group from the Lumi Tribe did…

Thanks - these are very doable and look like fun. 2 min with the cans - done!
