Huge NSV today! :D
So, today, I woke up too late to head to the gym before leaving for work, I decided I had time to walk/run in place in my living room. Put on Lara Croft on FX, and decided I'd run until I couldn't anymore...according to my fit bit, in 30 minutes, I ran 2.4 miles...when I started this journey in September, I couldn't…

I'm so glad
I'm so glad I started and finally went to the gym :) Even though I've plateaued a bit, and haven't seen much progress according to the scale for a few weeks...it's hard to argue with this! Don't know how to resize the image, so if you right click and select view image, you can see the pic from today...the initial pic was…

Today's...er...yesterday's NSV!
So, my husband and I were walking into Walmart last night. We parked way out in the boonies (there weren't any closer, or I'd have done that because it's COOOOLLLLDDDD outside!). We went as far as about 10 feet, and I told him I was going to run in. We ended up racing into the Walmart :) . Once we got inside, we proceeded…

The numbers on the scale...
I've seen a lot of posts on here to not let the scale run your life and what not. To a point, this is great advice. If you are getting smaller and that's your goal, great! However, I wonder if there are more on here like me that have to get the number on the scale down for their health? In my case, I broke my foot about 4…

My big NSV today
So, in the past, when I would get bored, I would either head to the refridgerator or hop on the computer (usually with a big bowl of popcorn or chips and dip). Either way, I used to always eat when I was bored. Today, I had an extra 2 hours before work and was bored...grabbed my gym stuff and headed to the gym to fill that…

100 Miles in October
So, I see the posts for 200 miles in September for bicycles - I'm too late to join in that, and my bike needs repairs...add on to that the fact that the stationary bikes tend to send me to the chiropractor to get one or the other hip put back in....so... How about 100 miles in October on foot - walking, jogging, treadmill,…

Optimal Calories?
So, I recently joined Planet Fitness, and am utilizing the trainer there. She had me use a BMR calculator - which tells me my Caloric intake should be 1550. She then told me to take 250 from that and aim for that. OK, tried that for a while (lost 6 pounds in the week and a half since joining the gym), and now am GAINING…
