Good Morning; this past weekend was grand. 70's and sunny. Walked about 14,000 to 20,000 steps a day but still gained weight. Had some rich choices in my meals. Now I am getting back on plan. How's every one doing? Are you consistent? I have to learn to be more moderate on my travels. I usually want to try everything - sometimes more than once. any ways, I am back and roaring to go. I am watching the Kentucky Derby which I recorded.

I stayed within my range yesterday, I really blew it in the morning, biscuits and gravy and all the fattening trimmings, but salad the rest of the day, and a little fruit, so my fat was high, fiber low, but I did ok. I had a great day, and got in my steps, not nearly as many as you did, and it sounds like you had a wonderful weekend. that is very nice. I have done some exercise today, but still have to go for a walk, and today is not a high exertion day, at least not for me. I am getting a lot stronger, but I am not losing any weight, in fact I go up about .2 of a pound most weeks, my low was 117, and some days I weigh in at 122, so this is not good. My DH says it is muscle that I am developing, I am not sure, I almost never go over my calorie range, unless (and I think I count it all) I am cheating on documenting every thing that I eat. just not sure. Oh well, I do feel so much better since I have been following Sparks, the only complaint if the time it takes. Not that I would be doing that much more, but maybe more time to read  I just got on the computer for the day and it is 5:00 here so I better get going and get my walking started.

I hope that you have a great day! Sounds like you had a great weekend. I'm sure I overate this weekend but I got lots of extra walking and biking in so at least it was a healthy weekend.

Good Morning; I have my pedometer on right now. I am running around the house and up and down the stairs. I have much to do today. It is a very active day. I want to wish every one to have a lovely weekend and Mother's Day. Do you take time for yourself and also time with your DH? Life's challenges can take a toll on ourselves and the ones we love. With a stressful job, one can just jump on the couch and get lost in TV. This has happened in my household, but over time we have come to a place in our life that time is not endless. We can not wait to enjoy life to another time b/c we are too tired now. We need to be present to our relationships. I did not understand this when my kids were young, but as they have gotten older there are always challenges. We have had to make time for us b/c no one else will b/c everyone thinks they come first. There is never a good time to wait and put off for long- something else comes along to take up the freed time. We have had to make plans and just spend time together. even when my son was at his worst, we would grab a cup of coffee and just chat on our porch outside and talk. Communication is the key and reading minds never works. I challenge you all take time with your DH. Keep up your exercise so you are healthy to enjoy each other.

This is my second response to you, my mouse quit on me, I had to put in new batteries, and of course lost everything I wrote, I was saying how you always seem to talk about things that pertains to me, I have been having such a hard time getting things done, from exercise to housework, and it seems like I am always busy, but I must not be, It is that I am so very unorganized I realize that I am, perhaps I have too much time, so I think I can fritter it away. anyway, I had a good day, took it easy but did get over 10,000 steps, and my air boxing and video as well as 10 minutes jogging, I am not a runner so 10 minutes jogging is good for me. Happy Mothers Day to you also. I am looking forward to a nice weekend. Report Inappropriate Comment |
I am feeling lots better today, so I must have had a 36 hour flu, I have been eating correctly, bland stuff that really doesnt add up to as many calories as I need, so I guess I will supplement it with some candy. 
Every one have a wonderful day. Life is good and full of challenge which can be managed. 
I recommend if you are in a stressful situation, find time to get some down time by yourself or with your DH. One needs to recharge the batteries. Exercise helps a great deal in this matter, but getting totally out of the situation works better for me. Look in the mirror and ask yourself- "Do I need a break just for me?" Have I been taking care of the emotional and spiritual part of me?
