sorry for your loss - and kind of crazy cousins- We all have those, I think!Ok, I mentioned in my journal that my "grandmother" passed away. She was 94.
I never had a real grandmother to share my life with. The only one I did have passed when I was 3 months.
Night!
sorry too for your loss - hope all went well.GOOD MORNING!
My Granddaddy passed away yesterday and the funeral is tomorrow too. He was almost 98 and had been in very poor condition physically for a long time. We had a nice visit with him at New Years. He knew me and talked to me for a good long while that afternoon and I'm thankful for that. I'll miss him but I'm happy that he's home now....no wheelchair required.![]()
EVERYBODY HAVE A BLESSED SUNDAY!
I'm new here, (not to the DIS, just the Wish board,) and am trying to lose weight. I would love to be able to get back down to a size 12. I'm a size 16 right now, so while I'm not horribly obese, I do want to lose some weight.
welcomeI also just weighed myself, and I used to be 200 pounds. I am now 196. So I lost four pounds since the last time I weighed myself, which I think was about a month ago.
And my mom tells me I keep on gaining weight.![]()
doing the stairs sounds like a great idea. My dad did that for years, and it kept his blood pressure - cholesterol etc. under control. I've been walking for the last several weeks with my coworkers indoors. It's not freezing here mostly - just not comfortable for outdoor walking. We figure whatever works so that we actually walk is a good thing. We have a hall that is maybe five feet wide and we walk single file. It's actually pretty funny, but we get our heart rates up, and we're really proud of being consistent.I have a question. I know I should exercise more, but I really can't afford a gym membership, have no exercise equipment, and I really can't do anything outside right now since it's absolutly freezing. I've had a runny nose for the past three weeks from the cold that I can not get rid of! Is there anyway to exercise indoors for free?
The only thing I can think of to do is to run up and down the steps over and over again, and even then I'll only do it when I'm home by myself, since otherwise people think I'm really weird.
That's great!
Well, I made a spreadsheet to track my exercise, calories, water, and weight. We'll see how it goes. But I'm under 1800 calories for the day, have had 125 oz of water, and did 80 minutes of cardio!![]()
Sounds like you're on a mission and definitely on the right track!
My computer is having some problems. I hope the part is coming in tomorrow so I can be back to normal. I've missed being able to check in daily.

That's great!
(why not i have no more pregnancies in the future ever , if i am going to take care of my family i need to take care of myself first right?
but really i am not
i just needed to vent a lil
so i am gonna hit the hay ...
But it was a tough weekend and AF is visiting, so I don't hold out much hope for that last pound by the end of the week.
Glad to have ya. We do weigh in Friday mornings and you post big whatever you have done. I have been the same the last 2 weeks. ALso put it in a nice color--that way we can see it early on. Right now there is a challenge for Valentines day. Thanks for letting us know about ya. You will see that this is a great place with lots of support.
Ok, whose next? Let's keep Moving!!!
. I lost a TON of weight before getting pregnant with Norah (my dd3) by doing a High (lean) protein/ GOOD carbs. diet and that's what I'm doing now. It's working well for me so I won't mess with it.
