donna450 130 Posted October 17, 2013 every single step you take countswell done sweet heart Hi carolinagirl and everyone. I started wii zumba basics today didn't last too long but fun so will get some of the steps down then step it up. Low sugar tonight didn't eat as much as I thought I would and got down to 50. Coming out of it slow but sure took a few glucose tabs. Have a good night. 2 catfish87 and ☠carolinagirl☠ reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

☠carolinagirl☠ 18,721 Posted October 18, 2013 changed it up.......instead of doing my step aerobics today, i wanted to walk it was like 70s, mild, slightly breezy and gorgeous (no sun) but it felt wonderful so i got on my pink nikes and off we went...let me say walking down and then back up an incline works your thighs..i dont care who you are, male/female old, young, fat or not.. pick up the pace and you got a helluva work out and then off to the new char grill.......ordered me the 3 oz burger (took off bun) hub cut it up into pieces (ate the lett/tom/on mixed with my beef pattie) and let me sy it was awesome anyone who says they cant eat good with the band hasnt asked me....will continue to eat well, exercise and let the band do its job.... which is make me healthier each/every day...... 3 catfish87, JOANNE M HOLL and sunnysidega reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

donna450 130 Posted October 19, 2013 Hi carolinagirl and everyone. I started wii zumba basics today didn't last too long but fun so will get some of the steps down then step it up. Low sugar tonight didn't eat as much as I thought I would and got down to 50. Coming out of it slow but sure took a few glucose tabs. Have a good night. Today I walked as far as I could go until hips hurt but I'm increasing. WTG to me!! I feel great about that. I am working the zumba and waking and tomorrow starting with my stretch bands. We'll see how that works. Should be good for upper body. Night all. Kudos to everyine. Be safe! 2 ☠carolinagirl☠ and catfish87 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bandista 7,466 Posted October 19, 2013 Sending thoughts your way, Sunnyside, and best wishes for a connecting, healing time with your family while you navigate this loss. And yes, the working out is essential -- these human bodies need care and attention. Time for all of us to step it up in the name of healthy happy lives for all the time we get to have. 2 catfish87 and ☠carolinagirl☠ reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bandista 7,466 Posted October 19, 2013 Oh, and my report! 20 recumbent bike (warmup), 40 treadmill, 20 Bowflex then so fired up from getting it together on a Saturday morning I got my husband to walk five times around our driving circle with me, a half a mile. Feeling like I can keep going is definitely new to me. 3 jamilyne 102668, catfish87 and ☠carolinagirl☠ reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
