I work/live in a very small town under 1000 people. We have not even had a gym here for over 2 years after it shut down because it could not make it. A couple just reopened one a few months ago. It is very laid back.... the owners have other full time jobs. I was down there today and they have good equipment, but no staff…

Caramel - Way to get the morning started!!! I used to do some spinning classes but have not done one in a long time. I made the call to the gym in town yesterday to talk to them about joining. They do not have staff there all the time so you have to set up an appointment to join. Sam started track this week in middle…

went for a really awesome walk last night down by the river. It was beautiful! The weather was around 68 and perfect. We have many bald eagles here and I was able to watch a couple of them. It feels so good with spring finally starting to arrive and get outside. The cabin fever starts to it about this time of year. LOL I…

Beeps & Jackie - Thank you. I need to find a way to distance myself as much as I can. We have a gym that opened back up in town and I used to go there at lunch, I was thinking about joining it again now that it reopened. It used to really help to go pound out some weights doing my lunch to release the stress. That may be…

just for today Tuesday 1. work on making myself happy and not looking for others to bring my happiness @OConnell - I hope your injuries get better soon, you poor thing :( That is horrible. My thoughts are with you. @kwfitgal - thanks for the encouraging words. I am hanging in there. I just have some things going on around…

Thanks Caramel for the wise words, that really does put it into perspective. Question for you all, how do you deal with a negative person in your life? I am doing all I can to try to stay above it but I absorb energy from those around me. Being able to feel so much for those I am around me can be a blessing or a nightmare…

Feistyjojo - you can do this! I have been having a hard time lately too. I am not sure what is going on. We have to take care of ourselves. One of my friends posted the other day, both choices are hard. It is hard to make ourselves exercise, workout & eat right but if we don't we will pick the hard where we are going to…

Allenpriest - I am so sorry to hear that, that is horrible. Where do you think you got it from? I hope you get your strength back soon :'(

I love our diverse group! It is really nice to be able to see different parts of our world.... it is a highlight of my day to come out here and see what is going on. Furballs - great job on the weight loss, it sounds like you have found your groove and it is working. Caramel - I hope your injuries are not too bad after…

Hang in there!!! It is worth it & you will get there. Try not to let the scale determine how you feel about yourself!!
-
Just for today I will live in the present and not in the past or the future! :)
-
I was wondering on this too. Even when I am walking it logs me as running. I have been trying to get my step length right and have been challenged. First it was not logging enough now it is saying I have went further than I have. I readjusted this morning and will try it at lunch to see how close I have it now. I just…

Congrats, that is a nice loss!!!

aaahhhh, Miami, Alf, that sounds amazing. I wish I was enjoying that sunshine. I have been hanging on and trying to find more motivation. Did plant my inside garden seeds and have quite a few that have come up. It is really great to see some green foliage and life coming through. Those of you who live in the winter…

Yep, me too. YIKES

Me too! This is my goal for today:) Happy Friday to all of you wonderful people!!!!

You know what I think is so hard as we get older? We can be so on track for a couple weeks, eating right, exercising hard & staying away from the junk and then we hop on the scale & nothing lost or very small. Back in my 20's & early 30's, 2 good weeks I could drop a pants size. It was so much easier than it is now. I wish…

Just for today (tuesday) i am posting early so i can achieve. Work has been crazy busy. I left my house at 7:30am and did not get home till after 6 pm. Ate lunch at my desk. My lunchtime workouts are becoming hard to fit in. I need to try to regroup. Early mornings may have to start happening but i hate getting up at 5 in…

You are such an amazing person, when we are blessed with empathy it can be a hard trait for us to feel balanced. If we do not help we feel guilty, if we do help our own energy gets depleted. You will get through this and what you are giving is an amazing gift. I will keep you in my thoughts & prayers. Is there someone else…
