Old Fashioned
So, my DH has decided I am a throwback to a previous generation. I will use the broom to sweep my kitchen instead of the vacuum. I hang my clothes out to dry on my reel-in clothes line. I scrub my dish towels, dish cloths, and cleaning cloths on a scrub board. When we used to burn firewood for heat I used the sledge &…

Anyone doing Pahla Bs 5-O?
Just wondering if anyone was using her plan for calorie allowance and how that was working for you? I just hate the idea of only losing 1/2 lb per week. But are age and lack of estrogen the problem she seems to think it is? Am I expecting too much from myself as a post-menopausal 63 year old? No need to be snarky, just…

Message board question
I was wondering if there was any way I could find any comments I posted. Not topics I created, rather, threads that I posted on? I forgot to mark a couple of threads I wanted to follow and now I can't find them! Thanks in advance for your help! (even if the answer is no).

Rewards
It is always nice to be rewarded for a job well-done. When it comes to fitness and weight loss, having non-food rewards for reaching goals is a great way to show yourself some love.

Walking inside
I love to walk but I cannot do so until cooler weather. I have issues with heat rash & sun poisoning. :frowning: I also do not have room in my little house for a treadmill. So I was wondering if the "walk at home" walking was a decent alternative? I see a lot of Leslie Sansone on YouTube, she seems a bit too fast-paced for…

New Board member questions
I would like to know how to add to or edit a previous post. I wanted to update my post in the challenge board but there doesn't seem to be a way to do that. Also, is it possible to create a "signature" that includes my ticker, and my stats, motivational quote, etc? Thanks! LeeH31

Older newby
Hey all, had a wake-up call this week. Angina is the diagnosis. Been fooling myself for years that since my bloodwork numbers were good that I was "healthy" fat. NOT! So, time to get real and face the fact that at 60 years of age I may have less chance for survival even if I lose weight, but I will have NO chance if I…
