DH's Throw

Monday, December 19, 2011

It's been a slow progress due to other projects I am trying to complete. Although it will not be done by Christmas, I plan to complete for his birthday in January ... that buys me a little more time, lol.



Here's me ... for some reason I have a thing for berets now. I actually made a brown one before church yesterday.



On a good note, crocheting keeps my fingers busy. Hopefully the scale will be my friend this week.

    Crocheting is a very useful tool for keeping your hands busy. Your berets are beautiful!

Blood Work Results

Friday, December 02, 2011

1. Low in Vitamin D. Doc said to pick up an OTC. Found an article on SP:

on_articles.asp?id=1357

2. Although my cholesterol levels were under the recommend 200, the bad cholesterol seem to make up for the majority of the 174. She said I will need to cut out cheese, eggs, etc. Now in my dream world, I could have sworn she said reduce or limit the cheese. emoticon But in all honesty, cheese is my downfall.

Overall, doc said my report was good.

    Here is a convo that I had with Comcast on Facebook.

I am so sad, upset and at a loss that this resource (Exercise TV Channel On Demand) that I have used to lose several pounds of weight will be gone at the end of the year. I have sent countless family members, friends and others to the site and On Demand to use this. Not everyone has the money for a gym membership and this is a real loss to me and many, many others. I do not understand why this resource is evaporating from existence but I believe the general public will also lose out on a wonderful place to go for help and exercise options for those of us that can not make it to a gym for many reasons. I would hope that there would be someone & some way to continue this service. The public has already seen the loss of Fit TV and now this too.


Comcast Cares Kim - Joelle, I will look into this and get back to you.


Comcast Cares Kim - Joelle, this month, ExerciseTV will cease its operations on video-on-demand, and as a result, ExerciseTV programming will no longer be available as of December 13 on demand.
Through a new free exercise offering called “Fitness Workouts,” fitness programs will continue to be available on Xfinity On Demand. This new offering will be available to digital video customers and includes exercise workouts such as abs, cardio, yoga, and other exercises. Fitness Workouts will be located under Sports & Fitness folder.

Joelle - Is there anyway to find out what fitness instructors will be available, like Jillian Michaels?


Comcast Cares Kim - I am not sure if I can get that information. But I will try

Joelle - Thank you my dear!


Comcast Cares Kim - Hi Joelle I was not able to get any information. But, if I do I will let you know.

Joelle - Thanks! Any information on this would help so I can share with others.

    Thanks for the info. I lost a lot of weight using this and now it is going away. Very sad to see it go. Good thing I have purchased most of my stuff.

    I was so disappointed when I read that. Fortunately, I purchased the workout DVDs I use the most OnDemand before I learned of this. I really loved being able to use the 10 minute workouts when I need to add a little more time to my daily routine.

You can still use the free workouts on the site. If you have an up-to-date TV, just plug your laptop up to it and use it as a monitor. That is how I do it when I use exercise TV. At least we still have access to it.

    I was upset to hear about this. I always like usoing this if I needed variety or a workout change up. Luckily I have several dvd's on hand now.

Day 2 of 46 - 10 Min Fitness Challenge

Wednesday, November 16, 2011

Did not think I was going to get it in. I was going to wake up 15 min early this morning. Did not happen - enough time to get ready for work.

10 minutes of hip hop dancing to a video I found on uTube
www.youtube.com/watch?v=JJpvv5lwEjw

followed that with a 1 mile walk on LS Walkclub.

until next time, have a blessed evening.
