"Get up, dust off, start over again. THIS!!!^^ Love this thread!!

I love this thread!

I was reprimanded for getting up too often. If you're on thin ice they will look at anything to criticize. I ended up being fired..I didn't sell enough but they brought up the water fountain more than once. Be careful. Yeah corporate America can kma.

I've bought suits from Lands end for years. My latest was on sale and it's a 2 PC with a skirt on bottom and a full top (I think it's a takinini top). I'm bigger on top so this works for me. They also have suits with and without underwires. In the past I've worn board shorts and a different top. The board shorts are super…

A foam roller does wonders. Or an icebath

Iced tea. Iced tea and lemonade mixed together..an Arnold Palmer. Not too sweet.

I used to do stock part time at age 50 . It was only a 4 hour shift. Wine day was tough. But most other times it was ok. Let's hope you're not doing all heavy stuff. Bring a change of clothes,, snacks, water bottle and a few advil. Hydrate. Put your feet in an ice bath when you get home and rest. Good luck. Have fun.

To live like an average sized person.

If you don't have a foam roller, try a tennis ball. Instead of a heating pad use an ice pack. If your feet are really sore, soak them in ice water. It hurts while doing it..I cant last long but it definitely helps. I agree about the advil/tylenol combo. Keep moving, it gets easier.

I have the same issue with high impact. And I've done those JM videos in the past. Using your arms more should raise your heart rate. I'm thinking old school aerobic class where you go up and down with your arms while marching. Raising arms straight up then halfway to the side. Arm circles with a small dumbell or can of…

Thanks everyone!

No thank you. I'm having pancakes and maple syrup.

I do! Most office buildings here don't allow you to use the staircase.

Thanks. I'll be in the Keene Valley area. No peaks for me. I'm not a couch potato but I've been in better shape in the past. I walk about 12k steps a day, bike and strength train. I'll be looking at hikes under 10 miles. I'm skipping the Lake George area because it seems like a lot of people go there. I'm looking forward…

I've heard the black fkies are really bad in June..but I'm going in September so they'll all be gone, right?? 😂

Thanks! I have lived in a 3rd floor walk up for the past 16 years and I still struggle with the stairs! I will add the stairmaster to the gym list and seek out additional stairs. We do have one 'hill' nearby and when I ran about 10 years ago, I often used it to train. I will do that again for sure. Forest preserves are a…

Maybe 2000'? Some of the really hard ones go up 4000', but I know I'm not going to do that. It's 14 weeks away and I haven't decided on which trails I'll hike.

I would love to be back in the 180's by the end of June. I re joined my gym last week. Strength training 4 days a week and continuing my morning walks at 7am with my friend a few days a week. I've gone from 5k steps a day to 10k!! I will continue to log my food.. I just started that again a few days ago. I am going on a…

So I can run...and catch the bus or train

That is so awesome!!

@WaterLily82. I'm so glad you're back. We all have bumps in the road, but true success is when we make that U-turn and get back on track. It's easy to throw in the towel. But you were strong enough to stay the course.

Good luck. I'm sorry you have no support at home.

Thanks everyone. I did finally join on Friday and have gone each day. I am a lttle sore and it feels great!

Beautiful!

Wow! Thats fantastic! Enjoy your first beer..it will taste the best.

I started May with a colonoscopy and the same week a terrible tooth ache that resulted in pulling 2 back teeth. Lost a few pounds bc of all that. Recovered the following week by upping my steps. I did 72,000 last week. I'm usually in the 40k range..maybe 50. I am considering joining back at my gym. I'm fully vaccinated and…

No more secret eating. No more hiding food containers or wrappers. I'm an adult and need to own it.

I've only broken one bone in my life..my pinky toe. Oh it hurt so bad. Nothing you can do but wait for it to heal.

You've done it before. You know you can do it. Are you ready to take charge and get back to it?[/quote] Yes!

Oh. I am fully vaccinated as well as a good portion of my neighborhood. The gym still requires masks and social distancing.
