Laurie Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 Dan, your pictures so inspired me that I signed up for a "10-lb Challenge" at my gym. I am supposed to get personalized support and analysis from the owner of the gym until I lose 10# - and she's also supposed to make sure I keep it off. Damn the torpedos, full speed ahead I say!

Talon Posted June 6, 2008 Author Share Posted June 6, 2008 Okay, back to the topic here, or I'll have to go digging down deep for the Off-Topic Police!! :laugh: :laugh: Well, I met with a trainer this week at the gym, who among other things made me do 5 sets of 10 push-ups.... I didn't think I could even do one, so I surprised both him and me by doing all 50. Boy am I sore today!! :blink: But I did them again tonight, hopefully I won't be sore for long. :pinch: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danmcq Posted June 6, 2008 Share Posted June 6, 2008 Wow, thats great Penny!! Push up are not a normal thing for women to really concentrate on, since they don't need to build up their "Pecks" like guys do. Laura - I'm glad I inspired you. I am going to start doing an hours worth of swimming laps in my pool now that the weather is warm and the pool water has warmed also. I spring time folks, time to get in shape for all those swim suite photos we'll all be posting here in the next few weeks ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted June 7, 2008 Share Posted June 7, 2008 perhaps those surf suits would make one feel less 'aware' of oneself? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Talon Posted July 14, 2008 Author Share Posted July 14, 2008 Well.......how is everyone doing? I am still running and going to the gym. Any updates here? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laurie Posted July 14, 2008 Share Posted July 14, 2008 I still seem to be a bit stuck. I know that stopping smoking is a huge trigger for weight gain, but I swear I can't put my finger on what it is that I'm eating that's so bad! Yes, I eat. I have to. But I'm not eating donuts & Big Macs, I swear! LOL I'm still doing the gym 3-4x per week and on non-gym days I walk, run, or bike ride. Yesterday I purchased a jump rope to add something different to the mix. My calves are NOT happy about that...LOL Anyway, tomorrow is mid-month weigh in at the gym - I will know if anything has budged then! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Talon Posted July 15, 2008 Author Share Posted July 15, 2008 Well, hang in there Laurie. Sounds like your doing very well. It is hard, and it never gets easier, but it's so worth it!! B) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
judygram Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 Glad to hear someone is doing very well, I am slipping but I am still going to Curves so there is hope for me yet, I think I need a good swift kick in the pants, any offers!!!!!!!!!!:whistle: :silly: :ohmy: :laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Laurie Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 Aw, I wouldn't kick you, Judy! I was reading in my Curves magazine though, that if you are working out and eating properly and STILL not losing weight, then you need to challenge yourself more. Hence, the jump rope for me. I'm not sure if it's possible for you to intensify your workout any, or shake up your routine somehow to present more of a challenge to your muscles. That might help!

judygram Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 It might help if I quit slipping off my eating routine, I am starting to go back to my old habits so yes I do need a swift kick, but yes I have heard that too, I need to shake up my workout some, maybe I'll get myself a bicycle:S Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laurie Posted July 19, 2008 Share Posted July 19, 2008 I skipped the gym today (it's Friday! c'mon!) but later I plan to go "extreme biking." My son loves to bike, too and we ride our butts off. Just gotta wait for it to cool off a little out there - my goodness it was around 90 degrees today! :ohmy: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kittykittykitty Posted July 19, 2008 Share Posted July 19, 2008 Hi,y'all! Is it too late to join this group??? I really need the encouragement! I think you know I am older and have some challenges. (Don't want to bore you with them.) I attended Curves for some time (two years?) and found a major difference when the management changed. I'm sure each frachise is different. My issues are to continue with my post-op routine REGULARLY, portion controle and walking. That one is the most difficult but I know it is vry important. Yeah, it's 98-103 outside, depending on which thermometer! kittykittykitty:whistle: :huh: :dry: :ohmy: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
judygram Posted July 19, 2008 Share Posted July 19, 2008 It's never too late Kitty and I think you are probably around my age and we have it harder than the younger ones, the older you get the harder to get that extra weight off and keep it off. I am fortunate that the management at the Curves I go to are a friendly bunch and very helpful so it is a pleasure to keep going. So jump right on in here Kitty, I will give you some encouragement if you will give me some back, ok;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kittykittykitty Posted July 23, 2008 Share Posted July 23, 2008 Judy, here's to YOU! I received good news today. The orthopedic surgen said, "I'm letting you go," meaning my shoulder is doing well but that doesn't mean no more exercises.:ohmy: :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laurie Posted July 24, 2008 Share Posted July 24, 2008 Hey - welcome to the thread, Kitty! You know, I have read that walking is just about as effective as any exercise. I think I just like psyching myself up that I'm doing more what with the gym and the jump rope and all that... With the crazy temps, I just wait until dusk or a little after - that seems to help. Just make sure to wear white or something reflective (for safety). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
