Ladies.....let's get fit!!!

[dandelionwings]

Holy moly that's some dedication to walk in the cold---I'd just grab a walking DVD and do it in the living room! Lol kudos to you and will power!
Beans---I hope it's a better day!!!!

 

[Cisme]

Hi everyone CES, I hope you are feeling better! And yes, I already realize my girls are constantly seeing what new trick they can get me and hubby to do. I confess we are pretty well-trained. Their newest thing is drinking out of my water glass. Which means I am getting up and down a lot to get a fresh glass of water. Maybe they are just helping with my exercise routine?

I love the daily quotes, starry!!

I forget who first mentioned just thinking "I'll do 5 minutes" but it was brilliant. I am not a late exerciser but the other night I thought, "5 minutes" on the bike. I ended up doing 20. I can't believe how easy I can fool me.

For those that don't like veggies, can you drink something like v8 juice? A glass of tomato juice always seems to fill me up for a bit and it's easy to have on hand. Throw in a green olive and you can almost believe you've treated yourself to a bloody mary. Gad! I am easy to fool......

 

[Cisme]

Oh! and Beans -- I'm glad I wasn't there, I'm sure I would have blurted out "what happened to you?!"

Quote for the day


Make your life a mission – not an intermission.

 

[HzG8rGrl]

Skypea-I hope you are doing ok. Check in with us girl!

Busy day today, glad it is over. Got my walk in, repaired the garage door (go me) and had to take my car to the shop .
Don't think I could get myself out in that cold-brrrr
How funny Beans-wish I could have been there to see it for myself. You think they thought you were gonna do a rain dance? LOL

Hang in there ladies just a few minutes a day and we could all follow Cisme and do more than expected, wtg girl!

LOL Starry, my life did feel a bit like a mission today .

 

[Fudgey]

Beans...........

WTG...............toto and cisme!!!! Keep it up!!!

You're good HZ.....fixing the garage door.....kudo's to you

Didn't do horrible today but wasn't really good either....LOL I'm getting in the right frame of mind and still paying attention to what I am eating and how much!!

 

[EmmaJo]

Way too cold for me and my girls (my dogs) today! We went out just long enough for them to do their thing and then we hi-tailed it back inside!!

 

[CES]

Great job on the walking Toto! I'm more like Emma Jo when it comes to walking in cold weather- except i just send the dogs out into the yard on their own

V8 is a great idea Cisme, are you sure we can't add a little bit of vodka to it?

Dang Hz- you got a lot done today. WTG on the garage door repair.

Fudgey, I bet you're doing better than you think. If you're paying attention then you're probably eating less even if you don't realize it.

Thanks for the kind thoughts- it's just a little cold, so hopefully I'll be back on track tomorrow

 

[EmmaJo]

We had snow here today but not a whole lot. I usually like snow but not when it's blowing sideways at 40 mph! It's just stupid cold here today. Can't wait for the weekend as it's suppose to be in the mid-40's.

 

[Fudgey]

I think I am fooling myself into believing I am being good Next week I will be more prepared.......measure and count everything!!!

It's cold here too.......argh!!!

 

[CES]

I have to see if i can find a study that i vaguely remember...women were asked to track everything they ate, and just the act of tracking it modified their food intake by a few hundred calories a day. That's why i think paying attention is a good start.

 

[Fudgey]

Next week should be a lot easier for me to do that. I will write down every little crumb We were short one person this week so I was doing trying to do more than usual.

 

[dandelionwings]

i'm streaky when it comes to tracking, but i find it helps if i use apps like lose it! anyone ever use it?

cisme, v8 is a great way to get veggies in

 

[CES]

I don't know that one- but i did find a pedometer app and a heart rate app






(ETA: got my 10 min in this am)

 

[Lisa66]

dandelion, I love V8! I haven't had it in a while. I'll have to remember that for the next trip to the store.

Things are difficult for me right now; I can't get out for my morning run..... we've got snow, finally. That means I won't be able to run for a while. Hmmmmmm.

 

[Fudgey]

V8.....eeeeewwwwww.....LOL

I have been good today

 

[classwife]

V8 now has that Splash drink...it's quite yummy !

Good going everyone !

 

[Fudgey]

I think V8 has made a fruit drink too!!

 

[AmandaMarie]

the v-8 splash is really good
I have been eying the thread but not doing real good lately....but I'm staying super hydrated and taking the dog out for more then just potty time
I'll be around more going forward...I need it!

 

[Fudgey]

Lots of water and more exercise is a step forward!!
