Hi Everyone!

Today I have been very careful despite not being home.  Fast foods were calling me, but I went right past them, and came home, and had a bowl of shredded wheat.  I plan on cooking tomorrow.  This morning I wasn’t home, and had a bagel, banana, and coffee for breakfast, and a salad for lunch. 

I am going to exercise when I finish my blog.  Take care everyone, and have a great weekend.

Hi everyone!  Today I went shopping for things to take to my daughters’ house for thanksgiving.  I  bought some buttered brussel sprouts, and some whipped cream.  I am taking two pies, two pumpkin rolls, and six dozen cookies.  Their is going to be a lot of people there so all of the calories will be shared.  I am planning on being careful, but will work of some of the calories doing kp. 

Well everyone have a great holiday, and may all of you achieve your goals.  Take care.

Hi Everyone!

Today I am 65, and much lighter than last year!  lol  I am a smidgeon away from being on the next lower pound.  My birthday present to myself is feeling much better this year.  I have been exercising at least a half hour a day with my exercise bike, and every other day with my ab-doer.  My love handles are almost non-existant.   My nutritional intake is journaled every day, and I feel happy about it. 

This morning DH is doing the ab-doer, and I am next.  Then I will do my exercise on the bike, and he will go downstairs and do the weights and the elliptical.  Then we will have lunch.  This morning I will have a bowl of cereal before I start exercising.  I am sitting here enjoying my coffee now.

Good morning, and good luck to all  of you.

Take care of yourselves you mean a lot to me.

Hi Everyone!

I noticed that I was getting low on fruit and vegetables yesterday, and I went to the grocery store and got some bananas, oranges, apples, and grapes.  I put some of the oranges and apples in my fruit bowl, and the rest I put in the refrigerator.  I like my fruit room temperature, but keep some in the refrigerator so it won’t spoil.  I am low on vegetables also, and will get them today.

This morning I had a bowl of oatmeal,  later two slices of thin rye toast with butter, and some yogurt, and of course coffee.  I did 12 minutes of intermediate ab-doer exercises, and then three Kms of bike riding. 

I had a bad cold earlier this week, and didn’t get on here much. 

I hope all of you are feeling well, and achieving your goals!  Take care, and have a great day.

Hi Everyone,

Today is a day to go voting.  I am doing my routine a little differently today.  I showered, then did my ab-doer, and will eat later than usual.  We have a church that serves dinner all day for voters.  The food is really high calorie.  So when I go to eat with my husband who needs more calories than me I will give him the potatoes.  The dinner is always a turkey dinner with mashed potatoes, pie and a beverage.  I will have to look at my book FOOD COUNTER, before I go, and try to eat somewhat wisely.  So have a great  day.  Take care.

Hi Everyone,

Today I got up early, and had my oatmeal, coffee, water, then did the exercise bike, and ab-doer.  I have a lot of things to do, but I generally take care of me first.  lol  

Have a great day!  Take care.

Hi Everyone!

My grandson played his last high school football game, and his team won.  My DH went to Virginia to see the game, and I stayed here to take care of things here. 

Today if all goes well I am picking up a treadmill from a freecycler for my daughter who needs the transplant.  Exercise is so good for her.  We took a rowing machine to her, and took back an exercise bike that we had given to her, because of her knees.  Her knees do not hurt when she is on a treadmill.  In case anyone wonders what freecycle is go to http://www.freecycle.org

I started my Christmas shopping.  I have six children, and ten grandchildren so I have to get going on my shopping. 

This morning I had a bowl of oatmeal, and will be doing my exercises shortly before I go.  Take care.

Hi Everyone!

This morning DH and I finished our Ab-doer exercises.  I had a bowl of cereal, and I am going to have a banana.  Then we are off to get a 19 inch TV that is in good shape from a freecycler.  DH is going to mount the TV in the basement to watch while he does his workouts on the elliptical; he also lifts weights, etc.

This afternoon DH and I are going to look at RV lots.  There are a lot of lots for sale right now, and there are some right where DH likes to fish.  He goes fishing every week, and the RV will be right up there for him to use when he is there all week.   After we look at lots we are going to go get brackets to put a shelf up for the TV.  So today I won’t be around to comment on your achievements in regards to exercise and nutrition, but I WILL BE CHECKING ON YOUR PROGRESS later on today!  lol 

All of you know that you are special, and you are going to get healthier, and healthier.  Take care.

Hi Everyone!

This morning I was on a mission.  I went to a church rummage sale bright and early this morning.  I had a bowl of cereal, and a banana, and got ready and left.  When going to rummage sales you have to be opportunistic.  I found some really good buys, at least I think so.  lol  I bought ten wine glasses that are sturdy, and I can put them in my dishwasher.  I found a microwaveable Tupperware that a casserole, or vegetables, etc. can be made in, this was a quarter. 

This evening I rode my exercise bike, and I still have the ab-doer exercises to do.  I made supper earlier, and I made leftover chicken breasts, and vegetables, and mashed potatoes for DH. 

I hope all of you had a nice day!  Take care.
