New Mini Goal for Me for the Month of August: Add time to morning walks working back up to 1 hour each. Add 2 more elliptical 5 minute workouts working up to 30 minutes total a day. If the weather cooperates I should have no problem with the hour walk in the mornings, I used to do that every day before I got my elliptical.…

I still do my measurements even though mine move slower than my weight does. It would weird me out if I let it, so I just take the measurements from time to time and jot it down, only put it in my check in box when I lose. Which I just took them and alas no change. :sad:

@Sandy, I gotta know...do your kitties use the toilet??? LOL...that would be so great!!!:laugh:

Hi Sandy, and All, I was going to post a new blog today asking everyone to do a quick check in as to how they are doing, when my husband walks in and says, 'Want to go somewhere?' You bet I do , said I. So off we went to check out this really retro flea market where they sell home grown fruits and veggies, chickens, goats,…

Good Morning All, I survived, even did my walk this morn , but it was rough. Here's to doing it anyway! :drinker: MARIE: I a majorly impressed with your garden, your oasis in the desert if you will. Yes, the kids and grandkids love it in Vegas. My hubby tries to visit at least once a year, but I usually head toward the…

Hey Ladies, I hope I can move tomorrow, I did some work outside, and then cleaned my stove today. It had to be done, I cook everyday and try as I may, it seems to defy staying clean, I put aluminum foil underneath the stove top and I have aluminum burner area covers. Still you would not believe how dirty it can get and how…

Hi Marie, Welcome :flowerforyou: My hubby has a Son and a Daughter, and grown grandkids that all live in Vegas. Wow, I am impressed that you maintain a garden in the desert. What do you grow? I live in S. TX so I know about the heat, but I hear in Vegas it gets cold at night and there isn't a lot of humidity. What's that…

@ ALL OF US...WE ROCK...LOL...:smile: :laugh: :happy:

Hey Lydia, Yep, I am kind of in love with this little awesome group too. One of them I checked out was SO BIG, that the replies were all one liners and kind of seemed impersonal to me. I too wanted the more personal conversations, and the support. Sorry about your tennis woes. I got my hopes high for you to make your goal…

Jan that is the most important goal you can have!!! As For Me...Day 2 of 20 minutes on the elliptical plus 30 minute walk in the morning. dj

Darlene, I was the same way when I started out, it was enough just to know I was trying. Now that I am in the routine of my diet and exercise, I like the challenge of a mini-goal. Yesterday I did 20 minutes on the elliptical. Not all at once,five minutes each time, four times throughout the day. With my crazy messed up…

Sandy, you are doing so well. I know you can do this. Think about low calorie foods that you can fill up on, and just resist those cravings. Best of Luck!!! dj

I got mad at myself tonight, for not getting up this morning and doing my walk, so I put on my big girl pants tonight and went for a 1 &1/2 mile walk. Set my alarm for 5:45 a.m. and will at least do 1 and 1/2 miles in the morning. I really saw myself in the mirror today, and all I saw was stomach and butt. I should sleep…

@Sandy....:blushing: :love: :flowerforyou: THANKS!!!
-
P.S. I just logged in my first 20 minutes on the elliptical, did not walk today, sore back from yesterday, but elliptical did not seem to bother me...I will try to at least put in 1 1/2 mile walk in the morning and try my best to keep up my 20 minute total time on my great new elliptical. I so appreciate all of my friends…

Sandy, I think it would be cool if we just did our own thing. We are not blocking new or old members, so I say just keep on keeping with what we have been doing. I just got curious. But I think my question was answered...We are Alone, and Free to be what we want to be...at least until further notice....dj

@Jan, Thanks friend, I love getting new luggage, the anticipation of using it is great! I for one do not intend to go anywhere for a long while...I think our little group is great. I also really like the fact that there are not bunches of us, it makes for a closer knit support group, I have looked into other groups but I…

Hi Sandy, It's been really quiet around here today, and so I am glad you checked in. I guess everybody is busy or out of town. Hope you have a wonderful time in Florida (who am I kidding, what's not to love?). I am doing well, on yet another plateau, so will "weight" it out, lol. Have a Great Weekend!!! dj

Hey Sandy, Glad that your knee is better, I want to be one of your students please, I have never been to Disney park! You know, for me the more we all talk about our weaknesses, our cravings and our battles, the stronger it makes me, so I really enjoy all the honesty. I am very proud of you that you chose pistachios and…

Lydia, Wow you kicked butt on the exercise. So glad your headache did not come back. The cookies sound delish, thank goodness I do not have a sweet tooth, my downfall is salty chips and dip, fries, etc. I usually do very good on my water intake, but today, I slipped up. So I will have to do better on exercise and hydration…

Good Wednesday All, I was out of the loop all morning putting up collard greens, and making homemade breakfast sausage. So didn't walk this morning, but did 5 min.s on my elliptical. Sandy, my hubby doesn't need to be on any kind of diet to lose weight and can eat any and everything, so I am used to having, pie, chips,…

Join us on the group( 50+ 50 or more to lose)!!! Best of luck on your new lifestyle journey.
