Ok I took the plunge and joined 24 Hr Fitness this morning on the month to month plan. I am excited to go now and burn some calories. That along with starting to walk at work with my friend this week better jump start something. The owner at Curves was not happy I was cancelling but I let her know her operating hours don't work for me. I am going to the one right by my house so if the weather is nice I can walk.

getting ready to go help out in my daughter's classroom until 3:30.

Go tamra - it's your birthday!

Hey Nicole - so glad to see you back and can't wait to see you on the 16th - been way too long!

Nicolie - it's raining here in the V - how bout there? You really gonna work in the yard??

Jes & Lee you ladies ain't old at all and the reason I know this is because I'm not old LOL

Pammie - I had the exact same problem with the curves by my house - closed at 6:00 - by the time I got off work and drove back to Vallejo they were always closed - I guess they only want the yuppy housewife clients LOL.

Wow, both of you are two pounds away! So cool. I have a little further to go. I'm jealous of how quickly you young'uns shed the pounds. I hope to join you in two weeks! I've cut way way back on my carbs which is how I was eating before the holidays set in.

The sun is shining here so I'm going out to walk Lake Merritt with a friend from the Kaiser Meetings. I hope it's nice all weekend.

Pam, good on ya for joining a gym you can actually work out at!

Candra, lol... you're a young'un too!

Monique- Yes finaly someone near me!!!! You should come to the Antioch WLS suport group with me lol!

Tamra- so excited for you girl!!! If you go back to school you can qualify for living expen. grants you know?

Maria & Tamra- I have been on EDD since December 2007 there are PLENTY of extensions.. trust me lol!

Nicolie-Happy for you too!!!!

Ok so my cheap-o scale lies to me so I jumped on my Wii last night and it sai 238.9 my goal is 225 so I'm getting there. I have moved my treadmill work-out to 20 min. in the am and 20 at night.

[MoniqueD 8]

Ash-I would like to try out the Antioch Support Group. When does it meet??? Do you live in Antioch? Belong to 24hr???

[MamaAsh 1]

Mo- I live in Oakley near Brentwood. But I don't have a gym membership because I can't pay the $$$ for it right now. Plus I just got a treadmill off craigslist and the hubby would kick my butt if I didn't use it LOL. The Antioch meetings are the 4th Wed. of each month at 6:30-8pm Sand Creek Bldg. 1st floor Room E (thats what my book says!) I'm gona try it this month to see what it's like. I can remind you when it comes close if you want :tt1:

[MoniqueD 8]

Yes, girl!!! Remind me closer. I'd would love to go check it out...You are so close...You can do it...We need to keep each other motivated.

[MoniqueD 8]

My surgery goal was 225 also...I did manage to get to 219.5lbs the day of surgery and 224lbs for my last weigh-in...It's funny because I was 238lbs after having my DD and really getting serious....13lbs is nothing....Of course, I can't lose it now but being banded is the best...I cant wait til the weight is gone..Everyone says I look different and they can tell....But in my mind, I look the same.
