Okay, this is kind of an old subject, but B....How's it going on the weight thing?????
Don't be discouraged by the weight see-sawing...I can go up or down 3 pounds a day, just depending on what I eat. Sometimes a lot of salt will hold water weight. So just don't get discouraged. The things I learned from Weight Watchers are pretty simple. Drink lots of water, watch your portion sizes (that way you can eat anything you want) and exercise, even if it's only a short walk, everyday. Don't give up when you have a big food day or your weight goes up a couple of pounds. I also learned to embrace that hungry feeling! When my stomach was growling, it became a good feeling because I was using calories. I also ate 5 small meals a day... planned ahead so I wasn't stopping at the candy bar shelf to fill a void because I was starving to death!
Keep on keepin' on! I'm cheering from the side lines!

Hey Rose & Kathy! Well,it's just as you described,it's a "see-saw" right now. so far,thankfully only up to 194 or 5. The great food Rose brought me has all gone bye-bye and i'm awaiting my 1st paycheck to buy the good food and abandon the processed as often as possible.

My workouts are every to every other day. Sometimes one just doesn't feel like it you know? ..but I'm pressing wieght (40 whole pounds! LOL!) and doing the treadmill and even swimming and other stuff.

Meantime,my new work ocupies my morning. i get up at 5am and am in by 6am. I'm there 'til 2:30 and then i go home,change and head back to the fitness club. When I don't go,i just get physical at home.
(No,I don't mean just playing that song!)

Heading out now,so I'll see you ladies later. Bye!

Excuse me Rose for not replying to your post from early last month,I overlooked it.

Anyhow,still fighting the battle. I sit most of the day at work and then I still go to the fitness center but not everyday. Some days I just don't feel like it or else I didn't get enough sleep. It's wavering between 190 & 195 right now,but it's not over yet.

Hi Borderstone,

Just wondering how you are doing with your exercise program and losing forever those pounds?

Unfortunatly,after the move I've found myself with very little time to work out. I'm not right around the corner from the fitness center now and I don't leave work until 4pm.

I also wake up at 5am to catch a 5:30 bus. Needless to say,at the end of the day,going to the fitness club does not sound very alluring. I'm watching my food intake though.

Good job Borderstone. You can only do what you can do.
