Been away now I'm back for a while

Monday, July 04, 2011

Hello all,

Well I took a little break from Sparkpeople and tracking my food. Gained a little weight back but I have been very busy with life. I went back to Graduate School and I had some injuries that prevented me from really working out. I need to recommit myself. So I'm back.

Life is all about choices

Wednesday, November 24, 2010

Life is all about choices and the choices you make are yours and yours alone. On this Thanksgiving Eve I sit and think about all the past holidays and the meals I have eaten and I am determined this year to eat what is good and heathly I'm not cooking this year so the choices I make are going to be truly different for me. I'm working on losing some pounds I have gained over the past few weeks. Are you making the correct choices?

I was thinking the same thing - how often in the past I caved in to eating things I knew I shouldn't - or having a larger serving when I was already full, etc. I'm with you 100%! Making healthier choices is the way to go. We can do it! Report Inappropriate Comment

Rambling of an old woman

Sunday, November 21, 2010

So I moved away from Spark people for a while, but I think I might start using in earnest again. My old scale died an untimely death and I was having issues replacing it. Well I got one yesterday, a pretty pink one and will jump on the scale tomorrow morning. I will also start tracking what I am eating again.
I went back to grad school and it was harder than I thought to get back in the groove. I have been out of school for over 30 years...now on break until the new semester starts in Jan, then 12 weeks of ecomonics.
I had a successful meeting of my LiveFit Revolution group in Philly and even got to run the "rocky steps" at the Art Museum. What a great workout, go to Philly and run those steps. I must admit that my legs didn't hurt the next day as much as I thought they would.
I'll start checking in daily and see what every one is up too.

Spark Menus

Wednesday, October 06, 2010

Ok for all your experienced people with sparkpeople have you ever followed the suggested menus on sparkpeople and what would you recommend? I never followed the menus and I really want to know if they helped you lose weight. Please let me know. Thanks!

New challenge at the gym started on Monday and I think I might want to follow the menus. HELP!

I tried to, but because I am single I didn't want to buy some of the stuff they thought I should be eating. Also, I don't want to eat the same thing that many times a week. Hope you are doing well--my kid is home on R&R so I have been absent a bit lately. Report Inappropriate Comment

Sorry I have not tried the menus! I am glad you are back!!! Stay strong and safe!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Report Inappropriate Comment

Hi everyone

Tuesday, September 28, 2010

Just a quick update on me. I haven't been on spark people for a while. I ended up having plantar fasitiis and had to have surgery for repair. I have a DR appt on Monday and hoping for the all clear to go back to excerising again.

I really missed everyone.
