I went way over my calorie plan today, but I did 30 minutes on the treadmill, so hopefully it will balance out. b - peach yogurt, golean mixed in s - body for life protein bar l - caesar salad and broccoli cheddar soup at Boston Market, unsweet tea d - ziti with chicken, broccoli, alfredo sauce, water I bought a bathing suit at Target so I can take aqua aerobics at the Y. Well, it's not really a bathing suit...it's exercise shorts and a top, but it's a step anyway. I'm going to try to replace walking with a swim a couple of times a week to give my joints a little break. Lady, is that breakfast I see with your coffee!? I'm proud of you! You must be getting very excited with graduation day coming up soon.

Wendy, I am so sorry about your friend's son. I know how much that hurts and my thoughts are with you and your friends. I've been slacking on my exercise since I got back from NYC -- had a bad cold for 3 weeks and then just couldn't get back into the routine. But I've made a recommitment to myself to not lose the benefits I've gained over the past year. For me it isn't about losing weight so much (although I will continue to work on getting rid of about 5 more pounds), but more about my health and quality of life. I went to the Y yesterday and did this routine on the treadmill: 10 minutes warm up 5 minutes fast as I could 5 minutes recovery 5 minutes fast as I could 5 minutes recovery etc 5 minutes cooldown for 30 minutes total Stretch Have a great holiday weekend everyone!

Hummy, I'm still around but only sporadically now. I peek in during the day sometimes, and try to focus on new quitters when I do. My nights are very tied up now, because as soon as I'm done at work I'm either teaching English to speakers of other languages (I have a group on Mondays and a private lesson on Wednesdays) or at the gym or buying groceries or some odd thing. Sorry to abandon you guys! Rusty :)

Healer, I'll mail you some! Are you using the forums at sparkpeople? I wanted to tell you that I used a recipe from there...Greek Spinach and Chickpeas...it was wonderful. Hummy, hoping all is well for your son and you. Rusty :)

Hummy, sorry about your son. I know this is a huge anxious and stressful time, so you will certainly be in my thoughts and prayers. Healer, I wanted to thank you for turning me on to the rosemary/olive oil triscuits. My husband and I both love them! Rusty

3galeh, thanks for starting the new thread! The old one was getting long and I was thinking about that this past weekend. You don't have to keep using my name in the intro, though -- lol. I had a pretty good day yesterday although my weight bounces 2 or 3 pounds every day. Maybe I should just weigh once a week. In fact, that's my goal this week. Stay OFF the scales! Yesterday: b - peach yogurt with golean mixed in l - giant salad with fruit, greens, gorgonzola cheese d - stouffer's vegetable lasagna (420 calories -- ooops!) Exercise: 10 minute warmup on bike, 8 strength training machines, 20 minutes on treadmill, and then yoga class. Whew! Be healthy - stay well!
