Roll Call Sat 12-6

[Outback Jess]

Good morning STACers. I am up early and heading out the door to work out with one of my "fitness girls". We are walking up steep hills this morning, getting in shape for the mountain we have to climb as a group in Feb. It's in the 20's outside, so it's sure to be an inspiring time!!!
Paying a price now, for results later. We are investing now, and look to accomplish our goal later. My fitness girl is 53 yrs old, and has gone from no exercise, to exercising 4 times a week. She has left couch potatoe world behind....I know she has never done anything like this before, and it will rock her world. I hope it is the beginning of many many trips up this hill. The trick with fitness as with diet is to develop it in such a way as it's not a means to an end, but a lifestyle that you just maintain in good and bad times. Walking is one of those things that we can do forever, if your health and limbs hold up.

I'm here...

I would love to go hiking... In fact, I think in the spring I will definitely make it part of my regimen... I'm not a winter-person at all... I can't stand to be cold so I wouldn't want to put myself in a situation I would feel was torture and get a bad taste for it. But, I do love hiking... That makes me want spring around the corner even sooner.

But! I WILL probably be climbing steep hills to go sledding with my son this year

Well, I'm off to work. (Making chicken patties before I go though.)



Have a great day everyone!

Re: Roll Call Sat 12-6

Hi Jess, you're absolutely right - I wanted to aim for five gym workouts a week but realise it is much better to go for three and squeeze another one in over the weekend if possible than to run myself ragged trying to do four out of five weekdays. As it happens, I have had a chest infection for threeweeks so haven't been able to go but I hope to re-start on Monday or Tuesday.

I am so fed up.... I ended up having a big 'to do' with my husbands family about lunch tomorrow. They wanted to cook, I excused myself, they included me again, I excused myself again (to steer clear of carbs) and it all got a bit heated. I am going to pack a salad and will feel happy knowing that I have prepared it and know exactly what is in it.

2.5 pounds down this week... and two inches (in a week) off my waist! This low yeasting suits me.

Re: Roll Call Sat 12-6

Morning all, day 4 of induction here. All is going well, went to the company Christmas party last night, they had a Mexican buffet, I made a taco salad with all legal ingredients. No margaritas for me, either! It really wasn't hard at all to resist,DH was sitting next to me, and staying on track as well. It's cold here this morning as well, around 32, but should be up in the low 60's this afternoon, so I feel a long walk with the dog coming on this afternoon. Then it's putting up Christmas decorations! I am so thankful to be back on the WOE, and already feeling better! Hope everyone has a great Saturday.

it's my sister's birthday party tonight, and she's requested that I make the cake. a low-carb cake, of course. I just hope I can keep my hands off it once it's done!

Re: Roll Call Sat 12-6

I'm checking in late! I only got in a little while ago from the Xmas Party I went to. I am sooo proud of myself for sticking to legit foods while there. I really thought I'd be tempted, but I wasn't. That is a milestone in itself. I had chicken and broccoli and legit deviled eggs - I made them myself! ^_^
