Hello to all, just like last time it seems I can not keep up with all the posts. Right now between all 3 jobs I'm working 7 days a week. I'm trying to work as much as I can to save up for our Florida vacation, my goal is to charge nothing at all. Last years Cayman Islands trip took me a few months to pay off. My Y is…

Welcome Abby, Welcome Gilly, Grandmallie, I hope you feel better quick. I can't catch up on all the posts, so I guess I'll try going forward from here again. Tuesday at the Y I personal trained 3 people then taught water aerobics, I had also taught ab class during the day. By nights end I was in pain, my knee's and back…

Good morning to all, Today is a busy day here at work and when I leave. I came in early so I can leave at 2:45 so I can go straight to the Y to PT and then teach water aerobics at 6. I also teach ab class at lunch today. I will for sure get my exercise in today. Jb in Portland, Funny poem Sylvia, the bowls look great.…

Hi to all, I wrote a big old follow up yesterday and can't find it anywhere on this thread. I'm not sure what happened. I'm at work now, I have lunch time line dancing today and plan to take cycling class and strength training at the Y tonight. My family got together last night for my DD and DSL's birthdays. It was a nice…

I would like to join this group. I am 56, I want to lose 70 more lbs and have lost around 70 so far.

Hi Everyone, I'm Patty. I use to be on here all the time but have been away for awhile. Haven't had home internet. I am still working my full time job, personal training and teaching water aerobics. I haven't gained any weight but still can't seem to lose. I am really going to buckle down, log, and get away from sugar and…

I've not heard of it either but would be interested in hearing more.

Sure, paying it forward is a great idea. I can always use a new friend.

Welcome Candy, My name is Patty, I live in Ohio, my children are grown and I have 6 grandchildren ranging from 15 yrs. to 4 months. I work full time, and also teach classes and personal train part time. I enjoy personal training, exercising, love to read, and spend time with my grandkids. Love meeting new people and making…

Good Morning to Al, Crazy week-end and haven't been on the post since sometime last week. We got my daughter moved and although they will be emptying boxes and resettling for a while, the biggest part is done. Saturday night we sat outside and watched the sun set in their back yard, the view was spectacular as they sit up…

I haven't been able to post here since the changes, I hope this finds everyone well. I can't stop and read as I am at work but I am going to post and see if it works. Hugs to all, Patty, Cincinnati OH

Happy Monday morning to All, I really didn't end up getting a lot done yesterday. I did get the laundry done, bathroom clean and kitchen almost completed. I finished chapter two, took the test and am half through chapter 3. I got some of the food prep done for the week and some exercise in, so I guess I had "some" kind of…

Hello Lovely Ladies, The band was fantastic as usual last night, I wish they came this way more often. We danced the night away and I actually put in over 10,000 steps just dancing. Thanks all for the good wishes on the water aerobic class, I'm so happy that it went well and plan to start on another routine today. I don't…

Hello to All, My first water aerobic class went great! I had six women and they all worked hard and responded positively. I really enjoyed it. Now I have to come up with a new routine for next week. So, I went to the doctor last night and apparently my thyroid has gotten jacked up and my medicine has to be adjusted. I have…

Good Morning All, Today I go to the doctor and see what the blood work shows. Hopefully I'll get some answers. Tomorrow is my first water aerobic class, I have my routine down and have practiced the moves. L A Fitness prefers that you instruct from the deck and not in the pool. I prefer the pool but am sure I can get use…

Goals for October and my word of the month.:smile: My word: Integrity- The state of being honest and fair. I picked this word because I feel I have integrity. If I say I will do something for you, you know it will be done. I keep my promises and very seldom ever let anyone down. Except for myself...I am the only person I…

Hi Friends, Today is Thursday, wishing it was Friday. Got up this morning without being dizzy so I'm thinking it's a good sign. I do work both jobs today but plan to work out afterwards anyway, I didn't meet my Sept. goals so need to step up the exercise. I also am so behind on the Nutrition class, I can't seem to focus…

Hi to All, Not feeling real well today. I've been getting really dizzy lately and out of it too. Can't seem to focus and everything is such an effort. I'm suppose to go get blood drawn today and go back to the doctor on Friday. I hope I don't get worse before then as I am almost hesitant to drive and am really out of…

Just popping in. The funeral was rough but the DGD's did OK. My daughter and their father are divorced but still civil and the twins grandmother was a huge part of their life, she was a fine lady and will be missed. I am feeling overwhelmed with all I've taken on lately but am hanging on. I have my ab routine ready for…

Just a pop in, I am at work but leave in 20 minutes to go to my DGD's other grandmother's funeral. I get a half day off which I think is generous of my work. I came in early so that 10 will make a half day. I still work tonight at the Y. I hope everyone is doing well, Take care and be healthy! Patty, Cincinnati OH

Hi All, Way behind and can't catch up right now. My twin DGD's lost their other grandmother Weds. She has been very ill with cancer and there was nothing left to do for her. She was in a lot of pain and I'm glad that she is at peace now but I know the family is hurting. She was the heart of that family. Then yesterday I…

Good Morning All, Tuesday now and I have ab class today. I've gotten several e-mails and I think I'll have some new people in class today. I'm still feeling overwhelmed but not as bad. I got most of my first chapter finished last night and I got my schedule straightened out for Weds. I'd triple booked and wasn't sure I…

Hello to All, Feeling a little overwhelmed right now. It's Monday and the week-end flew by. Saturday the wedding was a blast, the best reception I've ever been to. My friend is Persian and her daughter married a Navy pilot who is Scottish. The reception had the military sword ceremony, bagpipes, and the first dance was…

Hello, At work and work at the Y again tonight. Long day, I over slept so didn't get my first walk in but plan to walk at breaks and lunch. Tonight I get off at 7:30 so I think I'll stay and do some cardio. I want to start doing Yoga on Tuesday and Thursday nights but that will be at LA Fitness and I need my employee…

Hello All, Last night was a good night at the Y, the time passed quickly. My Y (called Central) is a lot different than the one I am working at on Tuesday and Thursday (called EBC). My Y has very few children and we have many more elderly or I'd say over 50 people. The Y has something called Activtrax which you can use to…

Hello All, I have read all from my last entry to here, everyone seems busy and most doing well. I work tonight at one of the Y's and then I am going to try a new Yoga class. I also teach Ab class at noon today then I am off to the dermatologist. Walking on my break might be the only other exercise I get today. On the…

Hello All, I guess this is going to have to be a bump since I tried to catch up with reading but now really don't have time to respond to much. I am at work and have to get cracking here. I planned to catch up on a lot this week-end and ended up at the soccer fields all day Saturday and half of Sunday. The twins made it to…

Hello All, Thank goodness it is Friday. It has been a long week after working both jobs all four days. I'm glad I don't have to work anywhere tonight. I plan to get into the water and exercise. Tomorrow morning is cycling and ab class. I have laundry and yard work to catch up on this week-end but it is suppose to be really…

Good Morning All, I went last night and did the new hire paper work for LA Fitness, I will talk to my boss at the Y, hopefully we can work this out. AT LA they had me sign an agreement that I wouldn't promote the Y while on their property. I can do the same for the Y if they want me to. We will see, I want to personal…

Good Morning All, Looks like a nice day here. Today is Weds. and so far I've gotten up early every morning and walked for a half hour before work. It feels like the day goes smoother when I do this and I can get my first couple thousand steps in. I work a full time job sitting at a desk and have also worked at the Y for 8…
