You can add me too if you wish

Feel free to add me as a friend [I'll send you a friend request]. I totally understand where you're at but rest assured you are not alone in this world. The only thing you have to concern yourself with is your own health. You can't force others to become healthy. Who is it you're buying groceries for other than for…

I don't worry about not working out for 2 days due to travel nor do I fret about telling others that I'm going for a fitness walk once I reach my destination. Daily life is full of obstacles and I simply work around them. Have good holidays everyone!!

Treat the holidays as you treat every other time of the year. You want a cookie, eat it & enjoy it, just pass up on the gravy and other not-so healthy fixings you can do without. Donate your sweets to shelters or other groups [it's what I do, I just have to do it before hubby opens them up since he's a chocolate & cookie…

My mommy could relate to you. She's been dealing with rheumatoid arthritis for the last 40 some years of her life but she's never let it stop her except on those days when she would suffer such severe flare ups that we ship her to the hospital for some TLC. Nothing like my mom getting shot up on steroids. She's like the…

Having a mind that wants to weigh 165 lbs. with a body that says "Screw You, I'm not designed to go down there" >:) Thankfully, I've learned over the years that overall health matters more than the number on the scale and on the waistband of my jeans. My resting heart rate is in the mid-70's, I walk 2.5 miles or more just…

For the past 2 years, I was out of bed at 5:00 am, having breakfast and heading off to the gym before work. Trying to find the energy to do it after work became difficult with age not to mention a lot of after-work commitments on most days. I don't have a gym membership anymore but I do a lot of walking outside whether it…

I pay just as much attention to what and how much I consume during the holiday season as I do during the rest of the year. @lorrikooten - I fully understand. I, too, have gone to the gym before and would get discouraged, quit, start again, quit, etc. It took me a few years to understand that the problem was with my mind,…

I don't aim to be anything that is in the past. I strive to live the day I find myself and to simply be.

I had thought of walking it to work this morning but then I woke up to the news that it was -23C with the wind. :s I walked it home yesterday from work which is 2.5 miles so I'm not overly concerned if I don't walk today. I may just do a good 30 minute session on the stationary bike in my room instead while listening to…

When I was at the doctor's this morning for my annual check-up [I'm in Canada], the notice on the wall said that if you're over 51, you're supposed to limit your sodium intake to 1,300 mg a day. We shared a laugh on it. It's difficult enough to keep it around the old 1,500 mg a day. Processed foods, fast foods, restaurant…

Joining in. I did my walk on Monday, Tuesday was a day off & yesterday was a write-off; will walk it home from work if I can't do one at lunch time. I also want to increase my strength workouts during December. Got excellent report on my annual check-up this morning so all's good. :D

You can always try Leslie Sansone's walking DVD programs for cardio and some toning. She has many out there averaging anywhere from 1-mile to 5-mile walks with and without weights and stretch bands, and interval jogging. The 10-Minute Solutions DVD series are also great; they pack a real punch in 10 minutes or you can do…

Feel free to add me as a friend if you want to. I know all too well what trying to lose the last 15-20 lbs. again is all about. Even though I didn't renew my gym pass this month, I've stayed active by doing daily walks averaging 2.5 miles, been monitoring my foods as much as I can and managed to lose weight. I'm now 8 lbs.…

Since entry of November 19, 2014: Nov. 20/14 - 4.4 km walk (2.75 miles) Nov. 23/14 - 7.02 km walk (4.38 miles) Nov. 25/14 - 4.43 km walk (2.76 miles) Nov. 27/14 - 4.27 km walk (2.66 miles) Total to date for November/14 - 75.68 km (47.3 miles) o:)

Despite the cold weather this morning, I walked the 2.6 miles to work. :# Month to date - 55.56 km [34.73 miles]

Congratulations on your accomplishment and good luck with your wedding. If you don't mind married people, you can add me as a friend.

Walked 4.43 km [2.7 miles] on November 17, 2014. Total for month to date is 51.33 km [32.08 miles]. Will try to beat October's total of 69.76 km by end of month.

Walked 3.0 miles today.

First important thing is that you recognized where you're at; you've gone through major changes in your life that totally disrupted your routine and your personal life. Shake off the past and start fresh; don't see it as being back at square 1 but at the beginning of a new journey. I gained weight back when I sustained a…

If you can do it, then good for you; just make sure you'ren not overly straining your muscles so as to minimize your risk of injury. Every man and woman will use different weight resistance based on what they want to achieve. I don't go higher than 10 lbs. but that's my own personal choice and not because I can't use…

If you stick to a weight program, you'll see just how easily your body can be toned. Don't try to overdo it when first starting but gradually increase your weight resistence every 2 weeks [if you're at a gym]. You'll be able to tell when to adjust for yourself as you go along. And, don't be afraid to switch things up by…

Feel free to add me as a friend too. I can send you a friend request or you can send me one.

Yesterday - day off for exercise 2.8 miles at lunch today - total to date for month is 26.3 miles

Yesterday, 4.6 miles walk Total to date for November is 23.5 miles - not too bad :p

No specific total in mind for the month. I'll just see what it adds up to at the end of the month. November 2/14 - 6.86 km [4.28 miles] November 3/14 - 5.03 km [3.14 miles] November 4/14 - 4.87 km [3.04 miles] November 5/14 - 4.51 km [2.81 miles]

You can do exercises to strengthen the muscles on the outside of your breasts but not the breasts themselves. Your breasts are reacting to your weightloss as they are mostly made up of fatty tissue. Are you sure an augmentation is needed? A lot of women who have big breasts end up with back pain from carrying that weight…

I wish I could offer advice but I've never been addicted to the stuff and I don't drink sodas at all anymore. I guess for you it's like quitting smoking. I wish you luck on your journey to give it up completely.
