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

[toto1013]

I'm glad you're feeling better Fudgey. Winter is difficult for me too Toto- a little chocolate (just a little if that can be managed) or anything that lets me feel pampered does work wonders.

Got in my 5 minutes of exercise. It was the absolute minimum, and this thread is the only reason i made even 5 minutes of time. thanks ladies

Good going CES. The thread is keeping me going also. Thank you so much for starting it Fudgey. Thank everyone for sharing and support. We will be the Fit Vapers!

...it will also drive everyone crazy wondering what you've been up to !

I walked up the stairs today instead of taking the elevator

You got it going girl!

 

[Fudgey]

Morning Ladies, I've been back on track and working out again! Woo Hoo I started tanning too, to get ready for vacation.....Wow, what a change of perspective, I had NO idea how weather effects me. I have so much more energy and my sense of humor is back. It's amazying! I have the feeling I may need to do this more often for my mental well being Oh wells, I should have known I'm a Cali girl living in the grey PNW.

Wish me luck today, I'm off to take a stress test. Let's hope I can show the Docs my neat little roller coaster trick I can do

 

[CES]

Yay Beans!!!


glad your energy is back AND you have a vacay coming up. Good luck on the stress test (what's the roller coaster trick?)

hello everyone!! I am still waiting on my book and video collection! If I am lucky they got to my bf's house today and he will bring them over today....

POP (or soda lol) is one of my big probs. I am SO addicted to it and drink a lot of it. And I am not a big fan of plain water, tho I like it sometimes, but it has to be nice and cold, with ice is best....

SO lately I have been getting flavored water, and I have been liking it....it's carbonated like pop, no caloires, and the flavors I have been getting have been pretty good......but, it's making my acid reflux worse. I looked at the ingredients, and citrus acid is high up on the list. Shoot....

 

[CES]

There used to be (unless I'm making it up) a thingie you could get to carbonate any of your own beverages- so you could make your own flavored carbonated crystal light, or tea or something?

Loveridden, do you know the percentage of citric acid? I'm asking because I love Fruit₂O; it's the most natural tasting fruit-flavored waterI've ever had. Everything else tastes like Kool-aid to me. It is only slightly sweetened with sucralose. It was off the market for a few years and then I finally found it again. The drawback is that it's only available (info from their web site) at stores like Costco, Sam's, WalMart and Meijer. I get it at Meijer in a 12 bottle package with four flavors for, I think just under $10.

It does have citric acid, among the "less than 2%" ingredients. Natural flavoring comes before citric acid in the list. Maybe this could work for you?

edit: the price is for a case of 24, not 12.

Quote for the day

The question should be, is it worth trying to do, not can it be done.

 

[Loveridden]

I'll check that out Lisa
Is it carbonated tho?

 

[HzG8rGrl]

Thought I would check in. Doing good still.
Morning routine:
Get up…...
Have a cup of coffee while reading the ECF.
Scramble some egg beaters with mozz-I am so done with the cottage cheese. I would rather do dishes.
Second cup of coffee.
2 miles on the treadmill, walk/run combo-30 minutes and 15 minutes of resistance for the arms and thighs.
Back to ECF and drink my water and take my vitamin.
Hips have been hurting-sheesh-Take a shower and start the day.
I have lost count on the days, been around 3 ½ months and have dropped 23 lbs! Think I will take tomorrow off and every Saturday from here on out. I have added brown rice as an occasional luxury to the menu! Yay, I love rice. Now to maintain.

Keep up the good work ladies-we can do this and live longer, healthier lives!

 

[Fudgey]

You are doing awesome!!!!!!!!

 

[Lisa66]

I'll check that out Lisa
Is it carbonated tho?

No, it's not carbonated and that's what I like about it. Very lightly flavored and lightly sweetened, no carbonation. It's very thirst-quenching, just a little more fun than plain water.

Also, I state just under $10 for 12------thought about my post later and that price is for a case of 24. Makes quite a difference.

[toto1013]

I have a bad habit of doing that Starry!!!!!

Congrats on the 23lbs Hz1 I'm glad we found you! What an inspiration you are for me.......

Beans...Congrats on your becoming ECF Veteran! Sorry I missed your celebration.

 

[classwife]

23 Pounds !!!
Awesome !!!

 

[HzG8rGrl]

Thanks Toto and Classy! Keep to the promise you have made yourselves and the lbs slowly melt away.
I took yesterday off and it felt so good that I had a hard time this morning. Had to make myself go get on the treadmill. I did get up and get it done-whew. LOL

 

[classwife]

I still haven't been able to get out walking...the oak green stuff is horrible
