Okay guys.....drum roll. Me and my husband have been on the Wii for about 1 and 1/2 hours. I have ran in place for 10 minutes - twice. and we played tennis for about 35 minutes. We played golf and did all those balance games.Hula Hoop is a killer and I weighed in at 230.50 lbs. That's 4 pounds since I joined fitness pal. I…

Good morning to everyone. It's a better day today. I guess I needed another day of rest. I'm ready to go again. Thanks for all the encouragement. Teresa

Thank you for the encouragement. I really needed it today. I haven't found the jack knife yet, so I'll try it.

Good morning everyone.....having a hard time to get and keep motivated. Any suggestions. I love Wii and can't seem to get off my backside and get 'er done. I'd love to go back to sleep. It's cloudy and cold and horrible looking outside. I'm sun deprived. Husband went running around and asked to me go and I couldn't get up…

The name spelling isn't really a big deal. The time zone thingy - on the time when you post. What time zone is it set in? When I post, it shows like 5 something in the morning. Just weird. My weight still the same. Today is my down time for recovery, so no exercise today. My muscle really hurt. I can hardly get up from my…

Thanks guys for the advice and I do have a morning snack and an afternoon snack, but sometimes I forget to eat it. I had to eat out tonight. I've been at hospital all day. Niece had miscarriage.

Good Morning to everyone. Good day yesterday and going to be a good day today. I've had my oatmeal and ready for a full day. Just a quick post and check my facebook and off to my Wii.

Thank You. I have a book along those same lines. I also use a book called Try this instead of that. Also another book called Magic Foods for Better Blood Sugar. I'm keeping a list of recipes that I don't have to calculate every time. I can mix and match them. But I'm building those and not many in my box. Thanks Again.…

Okay Ann, I'm here. New to dieting and to the boards. Rough time last night. My blood sugar crashed. I think I exercised too much (2 hours on the Wii , boxing, bowling, tennis, running, and golf) with out enough protein in my system. That and I had 250 carbs for the day. That's way too many. BUT, the good news is.....drum…

Are their any diabetics on board? Newly diagnosed. And need help with the weight loss diet. I can have up to 220 carbs a day. Next week, I should be going on thyroid meds and that should help. Last week doctor pleased that I had lost 1 lb. I don't know.
