Hi, I finally got back to Curves this morning. It felt good to get up and move again! I will not be doing the smart machines for this week and then next week I will be retested on the machines with a modified version for the squat machine. That's the one that I did wrong so I'm a little leary of going there!!!! Have a…

Marie: Those are great goals for November. I especially like the laugh until it hurts goal. And, you are right about the weather. When the suns out I feel much more motivated. Kind of hard sometimes here in the NW!:happy: Barb: Your house sounds like our daughters! They have 3 labs and 1 “mut” and walks are entertaining to…

Well, October goals were kind of lost in the shuffle! This month should be better since I have no trips planned. I have chicken breasts in the oven on time bake for when we get home from church before the birthday party for the 1 year old grandson. (I told my hubby that the frosting on the cake is the look I'll get if I…

Thanks. I'm trying to get back on track. I know the smart machines will have to wait a couple of weeks until I get back into the groove!

Okay - I'm back from vacation and I don't know of anything coming up that should cause me to see that wagon in the distance (you know, the one I fell off of:laugh: ) . My grandson's 1st birthday is Sunday and we'll have to have a party but I can be strong! I'm making the cake but that doesn't mean I have to eat any! Monday…

I'll be thinking about you and praying for your family. That has to be a difficult time. Be sure to thank him for serving our county so willingly. Esther

Good morning all, Another beautiful day here in the NW. Sunshine for a few more days before the rains hit on Tuesday (that's the forcast now anyway). Whether you are doing well or you are struggling this is the place for you :smile: Several of you are doing so well on your weight loss and healthy eating. I have good days…

Susan: You don't look like you belong on this thread :laugh: You look way too young!

I agree. The inches lost are so much more rewarding. I am struggling with motivation as well. I get up each morning thinking this is the day to get on track but then I slip during the day. I've been down with a cold too so that doesn't help. I'll be gone from the 13th through the 29th and don't know how often I'll be…

I am soooooo far behind on the posts. I caught the bug that is going around Monday and now am feeling better but overwhelmed with all the posts I've missed. Hope you are all doing well. I'm getting ready for 3 weeks of travel. I'll be leaving on the 13th for California and then back on the 19th to get ready to leave on the…

Welcome Mary Ann. Bad carbs are a problem for me too. I have to try to stay away! Have a good evening everyone. Esther

That doesn't do much for my ego!!! So my size 12 is yesteryear's size 20?????? That's scarry! :wink:

Welcome janessmi. I'd say you are off to a great start and 20 lbs down already. Good for you. You can do this.

:flowerforyou: Sheila: Welcome to our group. It’s a great group to encourage you. These women are awesome. Vicki: Good job on passing up the biscuit. Bread is my biggest tempter ;-) It hits my mouth before I know it’s coming !:laugh: :flowerforyou: Sissy: Welcome to you as well. We all have times of struggling and it is a…

I guess Monday will be the day to go back. Today I"m still a little sore so I'll wait. I'll probably have to be retested when this is all done. :grumble: Have a great weekend. Esther

Good morning all: Vicki: Good walk with your daughter. It is good you have each other to walk with.:wink: Jeannie: I didn’t do well in September either....but, October is a new month and a new beginning.:smile: And - aren’t those measurements going down so much more rewarding than the scales?! Barbie: You are so good at…

Well, I was typing away and it took off without me!!! As I was saying, I admire people who enjoy running. I WANT to enjoy it but I don't. I'm thinking of trying the "couch potato to 5K" but I'm afraid I'll fail. So, until I get that thought out of my mind ...I better not start :laugh: I've spent the last 3 days picking and…

I think I heard about that on the news! I'm so sorry. It's hard to see and hear those things on the news but then when you put an actual 'face and family' to the story it's even more heart wrenching. Take care. Esther from Salem, Oregon

Heather: Those sound like great goals. Dartboarddiva: Welcome. Glad to have you join us. Alice: A new month is here! We can do this! I'll be gone for about 3 weeks in October. A niece is getting married in California on the 17th and then I return from that trip and have a day to get ready to leave for Arizona to see our…

Welcome Kanderson. Of course you may join us. It sounds like you wrote what I was thinking ...I feel soooo much better when I exercise and eat healthy too. Let's do this! Come back often and get encouraged by this wonderful group of ladies. Esther

Hi all, I have not been back to Curves for 2 weeks. My back is still bothering me. Maybe next Monday I can start fresh again. Then I'll only have one week and I'll be gone for almost 3 so I'll have to do some long walks or run (?????):noway: Good job ladies. You're both doing great. Esther p.s. An early Happy Birthday to…
-
Sorry ladies that I was late on starting the October thread. It's on now. Because of my back and not being able to do much of anything except living I did not meet my goals for September. I'm back to square one :grumble: It's been two weeks and maybe I'm okay now to do more but I'm afraid I'll re-injure it. Have a great…

I'm just saying what I have heard and read. Here is a website that I read. It's the "undistilled, unfiltered and unpasteurized" that you want to look for. http://www.apple-cider-vinegar-benefits.com/apple-cider-vinegar-and-weight-loss.html and this is an excerpt from it: Apple cider vinegar and weight loss health benefits…

I heard that the organic is better for our bodies. I bought the Braags and it does cost more but is better for us. Good luck. Thanks Taxidermy. I hadn't heard that about brushing the teeth after taking the vinegar. I'll be sure to wait the 30 minutes.

Hi all, I have had a rough week. I injured my back a week ago yesterday and have been tending to it all week. I am up and moving again but haven't been able to exercise. Hopefully by Monday I'll be back at my workout schedule at least at 80%! I know there are some machines I will be avoiding for a little while anyway. I…
-
I haven't been to curves at all this week because of my back. I'm hoping by Monday I can go back and just avoid the squat machine for a while. mk: I'm glad your daughter is doing better. That sounds very painful. And the scholarship thing. I hope she can keep her chin up and look for positives - which is difficult I'm…

Good morning all ... and WELCOME KAREN. Glad to have you on 'board' :laugh: I have been laid up with a injured back since last Thursday. I have been on ice 2 days and now on heat. I'm at least walking again without looking like a "greater than sign" (>) :laugh: However, it threw me back to my weight 2 weeks ago. Due to no…

Hope you're all doing well. I'm struggling because I injured my back last Thursday. I won't be going to curves for a few days until it's better. Have a great monday, Esther

I don't know about putting it in yogurt or pudding - I'm sure it would curdle it!:laugh: I just take a tablespoon full and drink it with a big glass of water afterward. I suppose if you like oil and vinegar on your salad that would be the easiest way to get it down.
