Has anyone taken up Bycyling?

[Turler 6]

I like gardening!! I have a project just about every summer to work on in the flower beds. This year I have quite a bit of work to do because of the floods we had here. One flower bed was completely wiped out so I need to re-plant it. It makes the house look pretty. Any mowing and shoveling/mulching is deferred to the DH for heavy labor while I direct him! Otherwise J, I would hire it done. Except for the flowers.

Yeah, if I had a DH or a GF that lived with me I'd be all about sharing the joy. Actually I'm a good team player, but to get all giddy about yard work on my own, that's just not going to happen.

I think flowers are pretty, and I appreciate the hard work that makes a beautiful home, but there's just no time.

Who's riding this weekend? I'm torn between going north, going south or staying home. Looks like south to Kentucky might win though...it's supposed to be beautiful this weekend.

As for the convention in DFW, if that doesn't really happen we'll have to come see TX and B in the spring.

Road Trip!!!!

I NEED a summer challenge!!

Where's BG?!?!?!?!?!?!?!!??!?!!??!

I need to ride my damn bike! Ugh! I've been such a loaf. I've been so busy working on crochet projects (shoes, afghan, baby afghans, etc) and working OT and planning vacations.

I've gained 3 pounds since my unfill last MOnday. But I've eaten better the past 3-4 days... except last night when I decided I needed sugar so I made up a cookie recipe and ate about 5. The remaining 20-ish Cookies will go to work tomorrow.

HP - love the bike. It's a bute!

J - got your check today, I"m on my way to the USPS and will get your cute floppers in the mail. Hope you like them... or rather that the girls like them Lol. I got plenty, let me know if you want/need more. Tell your friends.

Convention - Not so sure the Nigeria trip for me will be a go... I might just hang back here in the good old US of A and make that convention. That is really perfect timing for me, cause I usually go down to Houston in Late Sept to visit my best friend, so I could do that and then stop by the convention on my way home. I'd love to meet ya'll!!

OK... the USPS is waiting for me!

Sometimes our lives dictate the amount of time we have to play around! If work and home life are keeping you busy, the last thing I'd worry about is getting on line!! Besides, it sounds like you are getting outside quite a bit and have been able to ride. That is always good!

You feel okay?

[Turler 6]

What are these challenges all about? I've seen some threads on stuff like that, but don't really know how they work.

hell I dont know

I just want some motivation and something to work for and my favorite group f people to do it with me

I am looking at the scale from this time last month and I am exactly the same. I feel better, I feel energized(for the most part) but I need to get my Butt in gear. I keep putting bad things in my system that will sabatoge my new life.

I may be going to Florida in August with my Husband for my work. This will be the first time away like that.

I want to be at 200 at that point.

Then it can be a little slower.

I guess we make the rules...have any ideas????

OH btw...just love the pictures TX!!!!! They are awesome

Lol... just thought I'd share - I was on my way home from the post office and noticed 2 ppl on thier bikes... in the McD's drive thru. I just found it amusing.

That would of made a cute pic! LOL

I started at Lifetime Fitness today. Wow, it's really kind of intimidating...I'm so used to my community rec center. All that equipment and people handing you fluffy towels on the workout floor and in the bathrooms...it's a lot to take in. Plus, I'm used to Cybex equipment, and they have Nautilus there. End result is the same, but Nautilus breaks their equipment down and specifies more...will take getting used to. I have a fitness assessment tomorrow, and I'm excited/scared to learn what my body fat percentage is currently.

So anyhow, I got in a good chest workout for about an hour and then rode the recumbent for 30 minutes on hill intervals. I'll be glad to get a comfort level there soon, I hope. It's different working out alone, too...but me and my IPOD get along great, and it doesn't argue with me! LOL

TX

I'm meeting my potential trainer tomorrow for the first time, we're going to see if we are a good fit or not.

I've gone to two spinning classes and "tone and sculpt" class that had me hurting 3 days. Three days of happy, I've been working my body hard hurting.

Challenges are when you commit out loud on the board that you will exercise so many times or that you'll lose a few pounds and you track it on the forum.

HP,

What did you have in mind for a challenge???

[Suzzzie. 3]
