Hi everyone! I'm glad to see that everyone is keeping up on their exercise. Great job! My goal this month is walk at least 3 miles a day and drink more water, but I haven't really done much walking since Sunday. Just wandering if anyone has bought and done the two new Leslie's DVD that were released on 10/4? If so, what do…

Welcome to all the newbies. This group is a great group to belong too, they will stick with you through anything and help motivate you when you need it the most. Just a little about myself. My name is Ann, I'm 42 years old, married for 20-1/2 years and I have two children 14 & 18, three if you count my husband. My goals…

Good afternoon, Everyone! It's a beautiful day here in Indiana and I couldn't ask for any better weather than today to walk outdoors. For October, I have decided to jump in head first and try and exercise everyday and drink more water. It's time for me to get back into this game and take control of my life. Today, I did a…

Good evening, Everyone! Today I walked 3 miles on the trails outside of work. It feels great to walk on the trails, but it was in the upper 80's today and when I got back to work I wanted a shower, but oh well! I felt sorry for my co worker that sits down wind. :laugh: Sandy - sorry to hear about your parents wreck. I'm…

Hello Everyone! I'm still here! I haven't been around a computer that I could log in on for over a week. I have to say it's been weird not being able to log on to MFP and get the encouragement to keep going when I needed it the most. I'm glad to see that everyone seems to be doing well on their exercising, but I'm sorry to…

Good evening! I didn't get to walk this weekend, but that's ok, I worked different muscles by weeding my flowers and it only took me 7 hours to get rid of all those pesky weeds. What was I thinking when I decided to plant flowers all around my house. Oh yeah I was 12 years younger. I'm feeling it my hips & legs today. I'm…

Good Evening, Everyone! I'm so excited I have walked everyday this week for about 2-3 miles each day. I know that's not a big deal for most, but it feels so wonderful to be able to exercise even if it is just walking. Seven weeks of doing hardly anything but sitting on my big butt was so hard. I feel like I have a new…

Good evening, Everyone! I love going to our farmers market, they usually have lots to pick from, but this year, the fruits and veggies have been scarce here because of the heat or I just pick the wrong time to go and it's all picked over. I'm going again Wednesday and hopes to find some good food. Jenny - the egg quiche's…

Hello Everyone! Welcome to the group Amanda and Anita. This is a great place to get the support you need. :smile: AZ - Way to go on reaching the 100 pound loss. Keep up the good work and I know you will be able to keep the weight off. :flowerforyou: Sandy - I'm glad your enjoying your new job. I'm so jealous that you get…

Good Morning, Everyone! I'm back from my mini vacation. The beach was so wonderful, pretty and very relaxing, had perfect temperatures. Couldn't have asked for more except to make the beach closer to my house. I ended up walking 5 miles and it didn't even feel like I walked that much. Just looking at the pretty scenery and…

Good morning, Everyone! I'm on vacation this week and trust me it's hard making the best food choices when you're around family and good food. I'm on day three and I don't know how much longer I will keep up those good choices, but I'm going to try. I'm looking forward to tomorrow I'm going to go walking and playing on the…

Good Morning, Everyone! I'm glad to see that everyone is doing great and moving. I got good news yesterday at the doctors and I got my cast off! :happy: I still can't do major exercising for about another month, but I can at least walk at a slow to moderate pace. You don't know how good that feels, until you can't do it. I…

Good Evening, Everyone! I just wanted to say welcome to all the newcomers. This is an amazing thread and everyone here is so supportive, you will really like it here. They have helped me through a lot! They just might not know it. Sorry, I haven't posted on this thread for awhile. I haven't done any walking or cardio for…

YAY!! I'm so excited I hope I have the cast off by then. Thanks for the info, I will be on the lookout for it.

Congratulations on your new job! I had no doubt you would get it.

Hello Everyone! I'm such an idiot!!!! I did a reply and then forgot to hit post reply and lost everything. I'm blaming it on the heat. The heat index today was 118. What's up with that? I feel so sorry for all the people and the animals at the fair this week. I'm glad this week I'm only there a couple hours a day, but some…

Happy Birthday, Teresa!!!!!! :smile: I hope you have a wonderful birthday!

Good Evening, Everyone! I'm glad to hear that everyone's doing great. Alice - I too love your wildlife stories. I would love to see those animals outside my windows. The only animals I really get to see here are rabbits. Unless you count all the animals called "College Students" that just moved in next door. I think theres…

Happy Saturday, Everyone! Was at the fair all day with my kids and I'm proud of myself, I didn't eat any food while I was there, but I drank a lot of water. Boy was it hot today. I did notice that this year they have added healthier options liked grilled potatoes. Yum! :love: So tomorrow when I eat there I can get my…

Hello Everyone! I think everyone is doing an excellent job exercising. I'm envious of all you. :bigsmile: I haven't got a real routine down yet with the weights, but at least I'm moving. Looks like the Swating Away the Pounds video won't be in my future. :laugh: Mary - I'm sorry to hear about your back. Back pain is no…

Hello Ladies! I'm envious of everyone's workouts, but Kudos to all of you. Your all doing an amazing job. Keep it Up! I'm trying to get a routine down for the upper body, but it's going slowly. I'm not as strong in the upper body as, I thought. Boy do I hate that reality check. :cry: I guess that's what my desk job does…

Hello, Everyone! I didn't get much exercising in today, but I did get sit-ups in tonight and I will add on the weightlifting stuff tomorrow. Jenny - Enjoy your last day in MI and I hope you have a safe trip home. Constance - Great job on the two 3 mile walks. Keep it up, you are doing great! :drinker: Kathy - We do have…

Good Evening Everyone! Thanks for all your support! I will definitely be obeying the doctor. I'm going to do some exercising like sit-ups, weight lifting, etc. to tone up. I was just hoping that there was some magic exercise that lets you burn 600 calories like with walking, but by just using the upper body. I guess I…

Good Evening, Everyone! I hope everyone had a great 4th. I couldn't do much so I watched movies with my kids and my daughter's boyfriend. It was fun! Today I went to the foot surgeon and all I have to say is Ugggh!!!!! I can't do any type of exercise that deals with the legs. I have tore my tendon in my ankle in three…

Happy 4th Everyone! I hope everyone enjoys their day with their family and friends. Have a safe and happy 4th! Ann

Happy 1st Everyone! It sounds like everyone is doing great. Keep up the good work and thanks Sandy for doing this thread for us. You rock!!! Teresa - Good luck on your job interview and I hope you get what you want! Also, congrats on the getting back to the weight you started out in June. Way to go! Mary - Congrats on your…

Good Evening, Everyone! I have been running around the last few days with my head cut off and haven't had a chance to exercise since Friday. I've noticed while logging my food that I'm not making the best choices. :sad: I hope to get back on track tomorrow. Jenny - I'm impressed with the Christmas shopping already. Nice…

Happy Friday! I've been walking 3 to 5 miles every morning around 5 a.m. this last week before work, since I can't sleep. But, I have noticed that I'm hungrier during the day when I do this and have went over my calories just about everyday. Has anyone else had this problem, or am I just weird? Jenny - I'm glad to hear…

Good Evening, Everyone! I got 3 miles of walking in this morning, when I couldn't sleep and I'm hoping to get in another 3 miles tonight. Sandra - One of my co-workers thinks they have a stepper in storage that their not using. Keep your fingers crossed. I'm glad you liked the video, and can't wait to start it. I figured I…
