Susan: I was just looking for your name to send an email to you. I've missed you. Sounds like you're doing well- that's good. Enjoy the weather while it's here. Esther

Yes, I agree with Barbie. Don't starve your body but DO eat only healthy foods for dinner. In fact, Barbie's dinner sounds so good wish I had some chicken on hand! Shopping day tomorrow. Anyway, heed her advice.:happy: By the way - did your doctor's visit go well? Esther

Deborah: Where do you weigh in? I will be weighing in next monday or tuesday to being a 4 week "Biggest Loser" competition at Curves. We'll see how well I do! :laugh: Hope you are able to get your eliptical trainer put together and not have any pieces left over! :laugh: :laugh: Esther

I like your "re-quit" goals. We all have those 're-quits"! We're here for you! Yesterday was good for me as well as far as my eating. So...the new beginning was a good beginning :wink: Hope you all have a great day, Esther

Went to CURVES and my PI was increased by 34. They had done a "global reset" on three of the machines so they said that is why. I got a good workout and felt better because the sensors were working right. Have a great day everyone. Esther

Good morning all: I feel great this morning after going to work out and actually feeling like I did something. I was getting discouraged because the machines were not working right and the readings were off. Today they were back in working order and my heart rate got up to where it should be. I feel ENERGIZED. I signed up…

Welcome churchlady - and any other new posters. This is an awesome thread. Lots of encouragement here for you. Esther

My Home then Settings ten Update Signatue Forum. Hope that helps. Esther

That sounds yummy. Congrats on the loss. YOu're doing great. Esther

You are sooooooo good Barbie. What an example of determination and discipline you are to all of us. I just hope you don't disappear :bigsmile: Esther

Good morning ladies: I am down only ounces so I did not make my end of August goal.:cry: So, I guess the good thing is I'm not up ounces or pounds :bigsmile: This is the beginning of a new month and an opportunity for me to work harder. Have a great day, Esther

Okay my friends. I have posted the thread for the month of September. Here is the link http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/64810-women-ages-50-for-september. See you there, Esther

Where is everyone? I may not make it to CURVES today because of my schedule. I may surprise myself though :wink: Hope you are all having a great Monday. Esther

Heather: Welcome back to the thread. TODAY is a NEW DAY and a NEW BEGINNING! WE CAN DO THIS! Becky: I know - I think that was my problem though. Giving into that first bite led to more cravings. Today I will do better!:smile: Esther

Okay - where do you find the plan? I've heard of it but never looked into it too much.

Wow - it's August 31st already!!!! I'll post a new thread for September late tonight. Yesterday after I was well behaved while at the fair (I had 3 bites of my hubby's sundae rather than having a whole one of my own :happy: ) I took another nose dive! I made Salsa on Saturday and I bought a small bag of Baked Chips to eat…

Where is Anne? Does anyone know? Esther

Oh darn Georg! You mean we need to log our snacks too? :laugh: :laugh: Just kidding. Have a great evening everyone. Esther

Hi all, Hope you're all having a great Sunday. The clouds have gone and the sun has returned. It actually got a little warm for me while outside. Barb and I "met" today at the Oregon State Fair. She drove down and met a friend to wander the fair with and since my hubby was there at the Authors Table Barb and I set up a…

Welcome osucowgirl: Things have to be looking better soon for you. You are doing yourself a favor by trying to get back on track. I know how it is with medication adding the pounds. I have a dear friend who has that same issue and has pretty much given up. So...good for you for wanting to conquer it! :flowerforyou:…

Barb: I sent you an email with all the details:happy: Hope it works out. I am having a "temptation filled day" today. I'm trying not to give in and I have been drinking a LOT of water so I am getting exercise running to the bathroom :laugh: I'm going to do some cleaning and then move to something else - AWAY from the…

Wish you and Barbie were closer. I would like to learn also but don't want to go by myself. 'Course, I might meet some new friends:wink: Hubby is beginning his 11 day stint at the State Fair today trying to sell a book he wrote. Now I am trying to plan my days so that I don't waste my time alone but have time to do "me"…

Okay - that's just too weird!!!! Today I got too high of a reading on the heart rate machine and had to wait 10 seconds on the next 3 machines! That is too weird of a coincidence. I never have gotten that before. Hit the red once before but not high enough to slow me down on the next machine! Oh well, I went and conquered…

Hey Georg: Welcome. You were on the Curves thread with me. Bummer that your club closed but this group of ladies are VERY encouraging and will help you through this journey we're all on together! Esther

Good morning, Hope you all have a great Friday. The weekend is coming. mk: You must be really pushing yourself. Take care. No passing out on the Curves circuit.:smile: I'm headed out the door now. I'll be back when I'm done. Esther

Hi, I just got back from my workout and am so glad that is behind me. I always feel better when I get done. Hope you're all having a great day. Esther

CONGRATULATIONS:flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: We have been married 31 years. I had a better workout today. The machines were a little better to me. Esther

HEY - where is everyone? I need you :wink: I'm off to Curves now. I'll check when I get back. I was up 13 yesterday but two of the machines are on the fritz and the sensors don't work so that doesn't help my results.:angry: HAve a good day, Esther

Welcome. We're glad you found us. We're here for you.

Thanks Barb. I just have to do it - like you said. No one else can do it for me.:tongue: Esther
