I would just like to be able to post my daily (or weekly) exercise just for encouragement and accountability. I will be 63 next week. My goal is to do something cardio-wise 45 minutes a day 4-5 x week. For me that will mean walking or bicycling. My band is fine but my butt is a little slow getting back in the groove. I did walk 2 1/2 miles today and it did include some hills. At this point in time I'm not interested in how fast or how far but rather doing something on a regular basis. With the cooler weather coming I will be doing some hiking in the woods. I applaud all of you who are already fit or on your way there with utilizing your band and moving your bodies. Thanks!

....just a practice for the big dance boo

Imma go cry now. .... boo hiss!

came home yesterday....and did my dvd step aerobics .....

while i was doing my thing, it occurred to me, that my body was working..

and it was getting stronger and healthier with each step i take up and down..

and that is what having WLS is all about.

checking in.......yesterday, did a lot of walking and it was fun...

whats fun is that i can (now).....walk.......when i couldnt not that long ago and now that i can, that to me is success..

ans yes with that (horrid) band i have been reading about....yikes...you would think us large people would support each other and not judge so harshly...boy is this ever proving to be wrong...and how sad.

anyhow.......that is not my business or concern...

cat/steph....uk will whip my butt and you dont need to show up as i give up now......dec line up for me is brutal....i barely got by friday......i cant wait to see how we play today at 4.....

last night we met up with some mc people and watched a band play and it was a good time

wore my new wedges i got...with spikes no less LOL

so, lets continue to eat well...move, stay hydrated and remain POSITIVE

I got in a run this morning. 70+ degree weather in the middle of November. And storming some nearby now.

CG,your Tar Heels have a good chance of getting a couple players back within a month?

Keep up the good work friends and have a good Sunday.

Girl I bet you look HOT in those shoes! And the CG I know and love does not give up easily! Do you have a fever girlfriend??
